_{[ It was rare for Nozomi to appear physically startled but the sound of Kotori's voice made her jump. Turquoise eyes looked up from the cards and softened at the sight of her friend. ]}

Sit with me?

<sub>[ She didn't want to talk with Kotori standing up like that. The other should at least make herself comfortable. She was in for a likely long talk...

Nozomi put her cards back in their deck and returned them to her pocket. ]</sub>

[blueberrytrain]

_{[ Oh no...papi senses are tingling...Kotori can tell that something clicked in his mind which she wasn't sure if it was good or bad. ]}

Maybe? I think so...the really cute red-haired boy... He's really tall! Like, almost as tall as you! _{[ He's like 5'10ish, Kotori. ]} He's one of the first people I met here.

If you haven't met him, I'll be sure to introduce the two of you!

[blueberrytrain]

Mhm!

_{[ She did sound a bit too cheerful when she said that she would sit with her, especially when she noticed just how jumpy she seemed to be. Kotori was worried about her, obviously, so she did speak up again once they were seated in a softer tone. ]}

Is...everything alright? Did something happen?

shhhh idk if thats a good thing

[blueberrytrain]

but u still get glass in your hands omg if that happens here ill be sure to bandage u up!

[blueberrytrain]

_{[ Well, that sure did make her blush because the thought of a real life fairytale sounded really exciting to her. She couldn't wait to see how that would unfold. ]}

I hope so too...That sounds really romantic...

_{[ With Mikoto, she thought that having that kind of romance would be easy since he seemed like the romantic type. ]}

Oh? That sounds weird...but stuff like that has happened while I was here. Maybe not the same stuff...but...

[guiltydulcinea]

With you and Mikoto-kun, I can see it. He strikes me as the type who's particularly in touch with his inner "hopeless romantic"...

[ Knowing Mikoto it would probably be more of a romantic shoujo manga instead... which still had similarities to the aforementioned fairytale, in a way. ]

Yeah... Holly Heights is strange like that. Not that it's a bad thing, but it's certainly... well, out there.

[leadingspirit]

[He can't. Even. He's not mad?? He's just startled. But okay 5'10" isn't too far off, Taki's 6'2". That's four inches!! Either way he has no idea what to make of this. She's not really his daughter, he can't tell her she can't date. She's a little airheaded, but maybe she'd be okay.]

I-- yeah, sure. I don't remember, maybe I have. You should bring him over sometime.

[He runs a hand through his hair.]

But-- ah, Kotori. You have to promise you'll be careful, okay?

[blueberrytrain]

I will! I think I'll invite him over for the holidays coming up if that's okay with you, Beast-san, and Jun!

_{[ She smiled, thinking that it sounded like fun, having all of them together. Mikoto could bring his family too if he's close to them, but she had never really heard him talk much about them. so... ]}

Eh? Be careful...? Of course! Mikoto-kun is really sweet, so I don't think I have anything to worry about.

[blueberrytrain]

You think so? I can see that too since he always seems to have really cute ideas that even I wouldn't think of!

_{[ They were both pretty much hopeless romantics because Kotori couldn't get enough of romance movies, so maybe she would find a liking to shoujo mangas too. She definitely would once she found out he did details for one... ]}

You're right. I hope nothing really bad happens here though...

[guiltydulcinea]

I hope not, either. For not just our sakes, but our friends and everyone else, too...

[ Maizono's lips purse into a small frown as she pulls Kotori into a hug. ]

Though if push comes to shove... I'll be there for you, Kotori-chan.

pAPI IS SO PROUD OF BIRB

[leadingspirit]

[He shakes his head, smiling fondly at her and reaching out to pat her on the head.]

They grow up so fast. I hope you're right.

shhh. we'll get better, no worries

[kingshizuchan]

it aint that much of a deal
nothing to worry about really

[ ... Probably because it's happened here already. ]

were slowly getting better.....i believe in us

[blueberrytrain]

:( but i dont want u to be hurt
just let me know if it happens here though because i want to help!

CUTE PAPI....

[blueberrytrain]

_{[ Kotori smiled as he head was patted and then just giggled when he acted like she grew up too fast. ]}

Papa Taki...you're silly. Don't worry! He was really shy asking me out...He has no bad intentions!

[fairyobsessed]

Maybe! I'm not very familiar with how the Landlord usually works. It might be a guess that's totally off.
Either way, we have some outfits to work on for future performances and the monthly events, right? Were there any sketches or something for the ideas you had in mind? I think we have to adjust a couple of the measurements for the group, too.

Either way, that sounds like it'll be more than you expect! Baking takes a lot of time and work in itself.

If it's just the main entree, I can do at least that much.As I said, I could do an entree, a couple and sides and something for dessert. Is there any particular meat you'd prefer?

we are DETERMINED

[kingshizuchan]

uhhh
ill try my best?
usually things are fine after i clean it up

[blueberrytrain]

Me too..Ah?!

_{[ Kotori wasn't expecting a hug, but obviously she didn't pull away because Sayaka was a really good friend of hers. Of course, she hugged her back happily. ]}

That's really sweet...I'd be there for you too if you needed me! I'm not sure just how much of a help I would be in a bad situation, but I'll do my best to make sure my friends are safe.

lies

[leadingspirit]

[Ruffle.]

I am no such thing. I'm actually not sure how to do this dad thing, really, so I'm trying to find a balance between overbearing and appropriately concerned.

[guiltydulcinea]

Ehehe... it's okay. I probably wouldn't be too much help either, but I'd still be there to help any way I could.

[ Just don't give her a knife, whatever you do. ]

Though I think everyone would agree with me when I say I'd prefer nothing of the sort happened in the first place!

[trashyking]

[oikawa wasn't exactly sure what to get her. but asking her would defeat the purpose of making it a surprise!!! so he just went with what he thought she would enjoy. and what girl wouldn't enjoy a fashionable scarf set complete with gloves and a hat.

attached to the package is also a letter that reads along the following: I hope this finds you well. I wasn't quite sure what to get you, but I realized most girls your age want fashionable things, so I hope this suits you well! I haven't exactly participated in a lot of secret santas before, so I'm not exactly sure how we're supposed to go about outing ourselves? So I suppose I'll just come out right and say that I, Tooru Oikawa, am your secret santa~]

[Today Kotori will receive: a cutely wrapped and ribbon'd back of homemade cookies, a box of chocolates, and a cute small pink bunny plushie with ribbons like Nico's tied around its ears. The tag will simply read: from nico ♥]

mailbox | 12/25

[aijou]

[Merry Christmas! Kotori's gifts will be at the doorstep of her home, and includes an alpaca sweater, cute bunny tights, along with a card that simply reads:]

Merry Christmas

from, Shinomiya Natsuki ♥

mailbox; 12.25

[detailer]

[ Mikoto would have done this in person, but somehow despite being more comfortable with his relationship it was still too much to worry about.

When Kotori checks her gifts, she'll find that he's given her a muffler and christmas cake.

There's also a hand drawn card with a note scrawled in it that reads the following:

"Thank you for being my girlfriend. Merry Christmas." ]

mail, the 25th

[carrierpigeon]

[This kitschily wrapped package is mixed in with all the others. There's a note written on the back of the tag:

"Miss Kotori,

Happy Holidays! This is something to match your name! Since we have this in common, I thought I had to get it for you!
Ryouta Kawara"

Once the wrapping paper comes off, it'll become obvious that this is one of those gifts that ended up being put in a box to disguise its shape. Ryouta's wrapped the bird pillow in delicate tissue paper like a gift wrap blanket. It's a little weird to him that birds are used for all kind of decorations like this, but considering how much Kotori seems to like gushing over them, he figures it has to be important.]

[tarot_entertainer]

Everything is....fine.

_{[ She didn't sound entirely convinced of that, though. In fact the words were spoken in a way that made it seem like Nozomi was trying to convince herself more than she was trying to convince Kotori. ]}

Well, something did happen. It wasn't a bad thing...Maybe in the grand scheme of things its a good thing.

_{[ It was a lie. It was bad for Nozomi. Her heart was threatening to ache out of her chest and no amount of comfort she found from her friends, new and old, even Ren, could stop it. ]}

Elichi....

_{[ The name left her mouth with a bad taste in it. She was still bitter and hurt. ]}

Ahah, Elichi went home, Kotori-chan.
