rollin & you!
When: at various times between December 13 and 15
Where: various
What: Yata sucks at gardening, looks for people to play vivid with, has a tendency to run into people with meet cutes, etc.
Rating/Warning: PG because of language
a; it sounds like a joke; "a thug walks into a flower shop..." (shopping district)
[ Someone like Yata into indoor gardening is a rare sight, so he is met with a few raised eyebrows as walks down the streets with a pot of forget-me-nots in his hands, wilting due to reasons one can already guess from appearances alone. He seems particularly worried about his current predicament though, and if you're close enough, you might hear him talk to himself. ]
Where the hell is the plant doctor? Do those even exist? Why are flowers so high maintenance, anyway? [ No, Yata, you're just wrong. He sighs. ] I'm so dead...
[ He's this close to just asking Totsuka.
OR! You can find him at an NPC-run flower shop, (but not the one Vietnam works at!) fidgeting awkwardly. ]
b; it feels like he waited nine long years (game center)
[ There's a holographic display advertising the new available scenarios in ViViD! One of them is called Last Legend XXV, in which up to four players can explore an open-world environment, fight monsters and complete quests as they go on a mission to seize their kingdom's crystal from the clutches of their enemies! New features include the ability to switch weapons during battle, vehicle travel... and camping...? Another is called Zokuzoku Remembrance, a new action/romance (!?) game that will get your heart pounding in more ways than one. It seems to be a straight up beat-'em-up game, but the ad also says you have to "fight for your love". What does that mean? Yata sure doesn't know. The last one is a more musical game called Star Show! in which you can sing, dance and fight aliens as an intergalactic super idol. While Yata has some reservations regarding the selection, he's just happy to see games he already knew about up there. ]
Hehe, I tested some of these! Man, the new Last Legend looks cooler now that it's finished...
[ OR! If you're alone, Yata might catch you looking at the display instead. Which ad is your character looking at? He'll definitely have something to say about it. ]
c; he'd punch them for you if he knew how to drive (anywhere)
[ Maybe you're busy on your Cerevice, texting your friends and browsing the network. Maybe you're way into this song on your music player, or need to get something that flew out of your grasp and onto the street. Maybe you're just a little out of it today. Whatever the reason, you're about to absentmindedly cross the road. However, a hand forcefully pulls you by the collar, the back of your shirt, or your wrist; and in the short instant it takes the traffic lights to change from red to green, a group of motorcycles zoom past you at an incredible speed. You're safe, but the voice behind you seems to be angrier than you should be. ]
Assholes... Hey, you okay?
[ Whether he looks frightening or genuinely concerned is a matter of perspective. (It's the latter.) ]
d; wildcard
[ Hit him up anywhere! He's most likely up and about, doing odd jobs, breakdancing for money, shopping for Christmas gifts, walking to the infirmary with injuries or skateboarding anxiously. Whatever, these are just a few ideas, GO CRAZY. ]

Also...HOW DARE YOU DOUBT HER WHEN SHE'S TRYING TO SAVE YOU FROM A LIFE OF LONELINESS WITHOUT YOUR ONLY FRIEND IN THE WORLD.]
It'll work! Don't worry, I'll definitely save your friend.
[Okay. Focus. On a deeper level...let's see. Maybe if she closed her eyes? It works for Aoi.
Find the water. Use your heart, Kaoru!
The plant's leaves shiver and then, yes! She's got this! She grins and throws her hand up and...well. Let's just say if Yata isn't hold onto it tightly the whole thing, pot will suddenly shoot up like a rocket. At least the plant and the soil will still all be inside.]
no subject
Thank goodness she didn't say anything. She's not hanging onto the pot though so she lets go when she feels it shift in her hand. She has first-hand knowledge of how powerful Kaoru can be and she doesn't want to get hurt.]
no subject
[ Real friends don't let go, though. Yata releases the pot as soon as he feels it fly up into the sky and watches it, speechless. ]
Wh... What just happened? What'd you do to Saya's flowers!? Oi!!
no subject
Um. This is-- [Not part of the plan. Oh, god, how high did she send that thing? And who is Saya? Was she mistaken? Instead of being his only friend, were the flowers meant to be a gift for the girl he wants to become his first friend?
Either way, she needs to get those flowers back, ASAP. But she can't just fly. It'll totally blow their cover.
So she tries to catch Shiho's eyes. Distract him, Shiho! she tries to convey wordlessly with a subtle jerk of her head.]
no subject
Don't worry, Kaoru, distraction is what she does best. You just focus on retrieving Yata's only friend.
Almost immediately, Shiho throws herself at him with almost theatrical surprise, putting her arms around his shoulders in a bid to distract him (hands pressed flat to his back and psychometry only active so that she could make sure that she had been successful).]
Ahhh! What's that~? I'm so scared!
no subject
Huh!? Wh-what? Where? I, um... Huh?
[ Congrats, now he's turned stupid, too. ]
no subject
As soon as Shiho makes her move, Kaoru breathes in, bends her knees and when she straightens up, flies up into the air. She needs to catch that plant!
She has no idea how far the plant has flown by now, so she makes sure to go fast....and there it is!
She throws out her hand.]
Psychic plant rescue! [The plant shudders, then stops, before suddenly shooting back into her hands. Got it!
She heads back for the ground just as quickly with the plant held securely in her arms (and her powers keeping them both safe from the wind and gravity). She just hope that Shiho's managed to keep him busy...
Either way, she lands behind Yata, making eye-contact with Shiho.]
Whoa! Look I caught it!
no subject
It helped that it was impossibly easy, though she did make sure to tighten her grip on him just in case he did faint. They could explain away the plant and how Kaoru had managed to catch it, but Shiho wasn't sure how they could explain a huge bump on his head if he fell. (Except to say that he'd caught the plant with his face somehow.)]
I don't know~!
[Once Kaoru lands though, she immediately lets go, hands on her face in mock surprise.]
Wow! That's amazing, Kaoru-chan!
no subject
Th-that's impossible...
no subject
Kaoru winks, then holds out the plant for Yata.]
Don't doubt the power of highschool girls~.
Hold on tight this time, okay? [Kaoru, it was your fault in the first place...]
no subject
[She doesn't wink but her smile is warmer as she says this (because it reminds her of Minamoto).]
And besides, don't you have something else to say?
[Like "thank you
for launching my plant-friend into the air"?]no subject
Um... Thank you. For tryna help, I mean...
no subject
You're welcome...I'm sorry we couldn't be more help. [Because Kaoru knows better than to that again.] If Minamoto were here he'd know how to help...
no subject
I think the best thing he can do now is to go to a florist and see what they say.
no subject
Yeah... It's cool. Guess that's for the best. [ beat ] And don't tell anyone this happened!

[Shiho smiles at him, looking very sincere. Too bad her fingers are crossed.]
