May I request Headcanons or a oneshot with Michael and Brahms with a s/o who’s an artist but they mostly sketch them a lot?

Decided to do it for all the slashers but here ya go!

The Slashers with an Artist S/O Who Likes to Sketch Them:

Thomas Hewitt

Thomas loves your art. Thomas loves everything that you do. Thomas just loves you.

Luda May also loves your art. Might even hang certain pieces up around the house to ‘brighten the place up’ like a proud parent.

But when you start doing sketches of Thomas? Oh boy he just melts with absolute adoration.

No matter how many times you tell him that he’s handsome and that you love him, he’s going to have the tiniest bit of doubt about your physical attraction to him.

But seeing all these sketches of him like you think he is appearance is worth immortalising in your work, he’s in awe.

Some or with the mask, some are without. Your favourites are the ones without. Normally Thomas finds it difficult to look at his face, whether it be in the mirror or in a photo, but this he can look at.

You didn’t change anything to make his face more...appealing. You just thought it was attractive enough to draw and that makes it easier for him to look at for some reason.

Michael Myers

Michael acts very neutral towards your art, just like he does with everything else.

He’s more likely to admire it when you aren’t around. Yes, he does actually like your art. Quite a lot actually.

When he finds the first sketch of him, you aren’t around. He’s a little surprised but examines it closely. You did catch him though, finding him distracted by the sketch and smiling to yourself as he seemed to approve of it.

Michael would never ask you to show him your work or the sketches of him but he definitely goes looking for them, wanting to see what you’ve been working on or how you’ve drawn him this time.

He knows when you’re sketching him. Sensing your eyes on him as you sit on the couch with your sketchpad in your lap.

He probably won’t mention it but he won’t move or leave the room, letting you work in silence.

Jason Voorhees

Loves your art a lot! And will let you keep them all around the cabin. Every time he sees them he thinks of you and it makes give the cabin a homely feel.

Could just admire your art all day, he loves it!

But then he discovers that you have various sketches of him? Omg, that’s too much for his heart to take.

Jason is in awe as he examines them, admiring every detail.

He noticed that most of him are of him wearing his mask and he realises that most of these must have been done when you were silently watching him and he hadn’t even noticed.

But a few of them are of him without his mask. No matter how long you are together, he’s still going to be a little insecure about his appearance, but this is just another thing that shows how much you really do love him.

Brahms Heelshire

Brahms loves your art and how passionate you are about it.

Ever since you got to the house he had been admiring you and your artwork.

He loves watching the concentration on your face when you’re drawing or painting. He loves watching your delicate hand as you add little details. And, of course, he loves the outcome of each piece.

When you start to do more pieces of Brahms? He absolutely melts.

You must love him a whole lot if you spend so much time sketching him? God, he loves you too!

It can be difficult to get Brahms to just keep a calm arura on many days. Something about him always seeming chaotic or fidgety.

But he could see and watch you draw for longer than even he realises. It’s all worth it to see the outcome of how you’ve drawn him.

He may not be a great artist but he’s had time to do some sketches of his own and has picked up some skills here and there. So he might just sketch you in return.

Will pose for you if you ask him too.

Bo Sinclair

Bo likes your art a lot more than he lets on. He’ll give you a smile and a casual compliment when you show him a piece of work.

One of your smaller doodles will go missing. He took a liking and likes to keep it in his pocket. Shut up, he’s not going soft!

He has a huge smirk on his face when he sees the sketches you have done of him.

You must really like him, huh? God, you must be downright obsessed with him, darlin’.

Will tease you about it, making you blush, but he actually is flattered. He smiles whenever he sees a new sketch of himself but that quickly turns into a smirk when you catch him.

Vincent Sinclair

Vincent adores your art!

But when he first sees the sketches of himself, he’s both a little taken back and excited.

He has no idea why you would want to draw him but he’s glad that you did. It just makes him feel so loved and makes him love you even more.

It’s what give him to courage to show you the sketches he made of you.

Cue the two of you sitting together, smiling like idiots, as you share your artwork of each other.

Whenever he catches you drawing him, your gaze flickering from the page to his figure, he can’t help but blush a little.

Vincent’s workroom becomes your shared workspace for your art. Just filled with sketches of each other. Luckily Bo doesn’t wander down there much otherwise you’d both get teased quite a bit.

Lester Sinclair

Adores your art!

And tells you that all the time!

He’s always complimenting anything you make because he really does love it all.

His face turns red but his heart grows ten times the size when he sees the sketches you did of him.

He absolutely loves them though!

Lester doesn’t really know why you would want to draw him so much but he certainly had no complaints. The more, the better!

Yes, he would like to see them all. Anything you do and then present to him, he will accept it and respond with lots of enthusiasm. He loves them all so much!

After a bad day, seeing your newest sketch of him just puts a smile on his face instantly.

Bubba Sawyer

Bubba loves everything you do, he thinks you’re absolutely flawless, so of course he loves your art. He could never do anything like that, it’s so impressive!

ChopTop and Nubbins are also big fans of your art.

But Bubba is the one who gets to see your art the most and he feels a sense of pride at that.

He’ll admire any work you show him, he loves them all!

But when you show him the sketches you’ve done of him, he blushes a cute shade of pink and he babbles compliments that you can’t really understand. But you get the general idea and it makes you smile.

Wants to see every sketch you do of him. He just loves them and they make him feel loved.

Billy Lenz

Even before you knew he was in the house, he was admiring your art. He liked it a lot, almost as much as he liked you.

He loves when you show him your pieces, happily taking from you to get a closer look.

Gives you plenty of compliments on it.

But then you start sketching him or he just so happens to finally find those sketches? Oh he loves them!

Can he keep this one???

Billy is definitely flattered by your sketches and would like to see anymore you do.

Will tease you a little but in a very playful way and with a smile on his face, letting you know that he loves it so...please don’t stop making them!!

Otis Driftwood

Otis is curious as soon as he finds out you’re an artist. So is he!

If you’re shy about showing your work at first, he convinces you by showing you some of his as well.

So the two of you can share your work with each other and get each other’s opinions. You’re both very supportive of each other’s work.

Once he learns that you have done plenty of sketches of him he has two main emotions.

One, he becomes a smug bastard. Look at you drawing him, how long have you been staring at him to get all the details right, eh? Like he hasn’t got his own sketches of you.

Two, he would be genuinely flattered that you’ve put so much time and effort into sketches of him.

He wants to see all the sketches you’ve done of him.

Otis will show you the various sketches that he’s done of you in return. Wait! Is that one of you naked?!..maybe...and he thinks it’s one of his best pieces. It’s definitely his favourite...

Baby Firefly

As soon as you start showing Baby your art or when she first sees it, she loves it!

If you ever felt shy about showing her your work, that won’t last for long. She’s so supportive instantly.

She’ll give you a whole lot of compliments! Seriously, Baby will absolutely shower you in compliments and praise for your work. Always encouraging you in everything you do.

But you get even more compliments for your sketches of her. They’re amazing! You make her look so good!

Wants to see every sketch you do of her!

Will absolutely pose for you! And in various costumes! Time to get more creative!

Yautja

The Yautja may seem more a species focused on combat and the sort but they can still have an appreciation for art. Especially more elder or mature Yautja.

He also admires your passion for it.

Will always praise your work, giving you a proud purr and a gentle pat on the head. It may be a patronising gesture among humans but it’s a sign of genuine affection from your alien mate, he thinks you’re just adorable.

When he first sees the sketches of himself, he’ll have a smirk on his face. Or the Yautja version of a smirk.

He’s honoured that you’d sketch actually. You must think highly of him to bother sketching him at all, especially this much.

Will never get bored of you showing him the sketches you do. Loves every single one of them and is filled with more pride with each one you show him.

May tease you just a little but always with love and never in a way that would actually upset you.

Episode 1: The Crybaby - Usagi’s Beautiful Transformation

I’m Usagi Tsukino and I’m 14 years old. I’m in eighth grade. I’m a little clumsy and a bit of a crybaby. That’s about it.

“Usagi!” called her mother from downstairs as the blonde tossed in her sleep, pulling the purple blanket with bunnies over her as she tried to drift back to sleep. “It’s past eight o’clock!” This made her practically jump out of bed and rapidly begin to change into her school uniform consisting of a long blue skirt, a white blouse with a sailor-style collar, and a ribbon that was tied at the bottom. Once that was done she raced down the stairs where her mother, Ikuko, was putting the finishing touches on her lunch.

However, Usagi didn’t pay much attention to this as she raced to the bathroom and began to rapidly brush her teeth while crying, “MAMA! Why didn’t you wake me up earlier?” Usagi cried as she wiped off her mouth.

“I did darling,” Ikuko replied with a sigh as she walked out of the kitchen to finally Usagi nearly falling over as she piled her books into her schoolbag. “Are you going to have breakfast this morning?”

At the mention of food, Usagi peeked in and began to drool at the sight of the delicious meal that her mother had prepared for her family with her father and younger brother’s plates already gone. It looks so steamy and delectable and Usagi was so hungry but before she could walk in, she heard the clock ticking. She turned her head! It was already 8:15! If she was late again then she would be in trouble again!

Usagi sighed before quickly running over, grabbing her lunch bag, and shoved it into her mouth. “Bye, mama!” the fourteen-year-old said with her mouth full as she nearly tripped over herself as she ran full speed out of the house.

“What am I gonna do with that girl?” Ikuko said, exasperated as her daughter left the house.

Usagi started to run out of breath from running so long, even though she was still pretty close to her house. Taking a moment she began to take deep breaths, slumping over with her hands on her knees. “Why can’t school be closer?” she said in an exasperated voice in between taking deep breaths when she heard the wailing of a cat. Curious and scared for the feline, Usagi took off running in the direction to find some kids harassing the terrified creature which broke the blonde’s heart? How could people be so cruel?

Without another thought Usagi ran towards the children, shouting, “HEY! STOP THAT!” and to her joy this seemed to have been enough to send the children running with their tail between their legs (no pun intended). “Little brats,” she said before looking down at the black cat who was laying on its side with a bandage in the middle of her forehead.

Carefully she crouched down and picked her up, “Ah poor thing,” she said as she held the cat up to check for other bruises. Luckily, it seemed like besides being scared, those boys didn’t do anything too horrible but Usagi couldn’t help but be drawn to the bandage on the cat’s forehead. “That’s weird. Why would they put a bandage on you?” she asked allowed and as if to answer her, the cat began to howl in pain with her paws scratching at the said bandage. “You want me to take it off? Okay,” Usagi continued and in seconds she managed to peel away the offending object to reveal that the bandage had been hiding a golden crescent moon facing upwards. With the bandage uncovered Usagi knew this sounded strange but she could’ve sworn that the cat was staring directly at her. Crazy right? Yeah. Crazy. Like that bald spot. “That’s a crazy bald spot,” Usagi said out loud, and almost like the cat could understand her, she began to scratch up Usagi’s face causing the injured girl to drop the cat. “Well, you’re welcome!” Usagi angrily said as she held her injured face in her hands. Stupid cat! Do something nice for her and the next thing you know they’re trying to scratch out your eyeballs. Ugh! Usagi looked down at the place where she could’ve sworn she saw the cat fall but when she did the feline disappeared. Well, all for the best then, that cat was mean.

Wasn’t she doing something beforehand? Oh, right! School! Oh, she was so late! With newfound energy she bolted to school, hoping that she could possibly sneak in before Sakurada-sensei realizes she wasn’t there.

Breathing heavily and pushing her body to its limits, she made a final mad dash before ducking into the school building where she barely managed to sneak in undetected but somehow she managed to reach class without being noticed by anyone in the halls so that was lucky and maybe even a sign that today wouldn’t be so bad. Sure a messy morning but hey that happens all the time, and if she could just manage to not be noticed by her reading classmates, maybe she could be actually seen as on time for once. Hopefully.

“Tsukino Usagi!” cried her teacher who with the other students were staring directly at her as she clung to the wall hoping to somehow be able to fade into it or develop the ability to camouflaged. Well, so much for being seen as on time. “What excuse do you have for us today?”

“Oh, um...Well, I was on my way to school when I saw this cat who was being beat up by these kids so I, with the courage of Sailor V, herself I fought them off to save the cat,” Usagi replied with her hands on her hips in a heroic pose, looking quite please with herself, only to be met with laughter by the other students and a grim look on her teacher’s face.

“Miss Tsukino. Do you think I was born yesterday?”

Usagi gave a very obvious nervous chuckle before smiling at the teacher. “Well, of course not, sensei,” Usagi replied.

“Then do you think I would really believe such an outlandish story?” her teacher asked.

Usagi looked down and cringed. Why won’t she believe me? Okay, sure she may have made up a few stories to explain her being late like how she tripped and ended up in the hospital but to be fair she did actually trip but the rest may have been a slight exaggeration, but this time she was telling the truth! “But it’s the truth, sensei,” Usagi replied.

“Like that time, you scraped your knee and ended up in the hospital?” asked her teacher which caused Usagi to blush out of embarrassment. “Exactly. Meet me today at lunch, but right now take your seat.”

“Yes, sensei,” Usagi said, dejected as her class laughed at her misfortune. Once in her seat, she rested her head on the desk and groaned. Why was she always messing up?

When lunchtime came Usagi was left in the hallway watching as everyone was happily chatting and laughing with each other while she was stuck waiting for yet another scolding by her teacher and to top it all off she had to do it with an empty stomach. She groaned at this feeling the ache in her belly become immense that she grabbed her stomach to soothe it. She looked over at her teacher who was busy with some papers on her desk and then back at her own hand that held her lunch bag. Well, if Sakurada-sensei was going to be taking a while might as well have something to eat in the meantime, sitting down she pulled open the drawstring bunny-decorated bag and pulled out the bento box that her mother had lovingly made for her. Usagi brightly smiled at that and opened it and pulled out an onigiri and just as she raised it to her lips, “Miss. Tsukino! No eating in the halls!” she was caught by her teacher which nearly made her drop her food.

Usagi gave the biggest, fakest smile as she quickly packed up her lunch and placed it back in her lunch bag. “Sorry.”

Sakurada-sensei didn’t seem to notice or care too much as she pulled out an English test in front of her face with peering, ugly, bright red 30 staring at her, that Usagi recognized as being their last test. “Does this look like a grade you want?” Sakurada-sensei asked.

“No, sensei,” Usagi said as she was being handed the test, still staring at the 30.

“Exactly. Also, does this look like a good use of your time?” her teacher said pulling out a doodle Usagi made of a cartoonish version of her shouting at Usagi which led the former to give a small chuckle. “Well do you?”

“N-no,” Usagi said quieting down.

“Also, you are constantly tardy and to top it off you make excuses instead of owning up to them,” Sakurada-sensei continued.

“I’m sorry,” Usagi said, blushing again.

“I expect you to do better in the future and to pay attention,” Sakurada-sensei tells her before walking back inside her classroom.

Usagi walked out into the hallway with her head hung low staring at the bright red thirty taunting her on the page before sighing and hitting her head against the paper. Sure, she never had the best grades but if her parents see this, it will kill them. Or they will kill her.

“Usagi!” she heard a familiar voice call and the blonde whipped around to see a redhead with a bright green bow in her hair running towards her.

“Naru-chan,” Usagi said forcing a smile onto her face, still thinking about the thirty on her test.

“Hey, Usagi,” she said stopping next to her. “Everything okay?”

Usagi saying nothing just held out her paper to show her friend. “Oh, I’m sorry Usagi,” Naru said placing her hand on her shoulder.

“Ugh. What am I gonna do?” Usagi cries, hunching forward.

“Well you could join me for a study session,” a male voice said from behind the two girls that caused them to jump up in fear...before seeing it was their sort-of friend, Umino.

“Umino!” Usagi cried. “Don’t sneak up on us like that.”

“I’m sorry, but I couldn’t help but overhear your little predicament,” he said, hanging off their shoulders, much to their obvious annoyance.

“Oh yeah, and you’re going to help me?” Usagi asks in a frustrated tone.

Umino holds up his own test which held a 95/100 in bold red coloring inches from Usagi’s eyes. “With a little help from me, Tsukino Usagi, you will be an English genius!”

Usagi stared at the test then at Umino before thinking back to the last time she tried asking him for help and ended up being worked to the bone by him. “Eh...no thank you.”

“Besides she doesn’t need you forcing her to study all night,” Naru said stepping in on her behalf.

“I’m just trying to help,” Umino whined.

“Sure you are,” Naru said rolling her eyes before turning to look at Usagi, “You know, Usagi, why don’t you and I head to the Osa-P after school?”

Usagi looked over at her, “Doesn’t most of that stuff cost 300,000 yen?”

“Well, yeah but it’s still fun to look. Besides it’s right near The Crown,” Naru gestured.

“That’s right! The new Sailor V video game should be there by now!” Usagi cried.

“Exactly! So you wanna go after school?” Naru asks.

“Definitely!” Usagi said hugging the redhead...before they were once again interrupted by Umino who appeared between their hug.

“Speaking of Sailor V, did you hear that she stopped a robbery in Kyoto?” Umino asked.

“Oh, yeah! She’s so cool! Mama told me she beat up all those guys and sent them to jail,” Usagi said. “Oh what I’d give to be just like her.”

Naru smiled dreamily, “Come on, Usagi. Nobody even knows who she actually is. I mean for all we know she could be someone who collects coins as a hobby or something.”

“I collect coins,” Umino said from the sidelines.

Usagi looked over Umino for a minute then at Naru, thinking for a minute before opening her mouth, “Well, even if she did that, she’s still so cool. She’s so brave and strong and smart. Now come on, I’m hungry!” With that, she dragged her friends away to help her find a place to eat.

_____________________________________________________________

Meanwhile, in the darkness of an underground cavern far from Tokyo or any sentient life, a woman holding a staff with an orb placed on top, hidden by the shadows surrounding her, stood over a tomb with a dark fog of deep purple spilling out of the lid.

The woman watched before saying, “I understand, my queen. We will not fail you.” With this, the woman cried, “Jadeite, stand before me.”

At this a man emerged, his face hidden by his golden hair as he bowed before the woman, “You called for me, my lady?”

“Our great queen is in need of life energy, and you will gather it for her. Understood?” the woman told him with a voice of ice.

“Of course. Anything to revive our queen,” Jadeite says.

“Good. Now off with you,” the woman said and with one final bow, he walked away into the darkness that glowed with blood-red eyes.

_______________________________________________________________

With the Westminster chime signaling the end of the school, Usagi raced out to find Naru and together they headed to the jewelry store her mother owns which was only a few blocks away, and once there they saw it was surrounded by what could only be described as chaos. Women and some men were pushing and shoving each other, trying to fits through the automatic doors with shouting and crying being heard by the two middle schoolers.

“What’s going on Naru?” Usagi asked her friend who looked just as confused as her friend as the other times she had been there, it was usually very empty besides the occasional customer looking to buy an engagement ring or a necklace for a formal party or a bracelet as a present.

“I...don’t know,” Naru replied. “We should find my mom since she’ll know.” Usagi nodded at this and the two girls tried to squeeze themselves into the store with them being pushed and shoved by the patrons before somehow they were spat into the store with Usagi falling onto her face. “Are you okay, Usagi?” Naru asked looking over at her fallen friend.

“Yeah. This happens all the time,” Usagi sadly said as she grabbed her hand.

“You know you really should get that whole clumsy out of the way. Have you ever thought of ice skating?” Naru asked as she pulled her up from the ground.

“Oh, yeah, imagine me skating across the rink like a beautiful ice fairy,” she said imagining herself in one of those beautiful, rhinestone-covered dresses figure skaters wear...until she’s pushed to the ground again by the customer who didn’t even have the decency to apologize. “Hey!” Usagi cried at the woman as she picked herself up again only for her not to even give her a second glance as she marched towards the oddly familiar woman who was shouting about the low, low prices that the jewels were selling as men and women crowded each other to be the first to have their picks of the remaining jewels.

“5,000 yen necklaces! 3,000 yen bracelets! Diamond rings and earrings only a whooping 6,000 yen!” called the woman.

Usagi’s eyes widened in shock. Only a thousand yen for a pair of diamond necklaces? Sold! She then pulled out her purse only to find that only had enough for games at the Game Center Crown. Maybe mama would give her more money when she got home or-

“Mom?” Naru asked from beside her. Usagi looked up at Naru who stared in shock at the woman announcing her prices.

Usagi nearly burst out laughing since Naru’s mother would never practically give away jewelry like this since she was always so prickly all the time, especially when it came to working. However, just as she was about to look over at Naru to tell her she was crazy, she gave a second look at the woman who was still very familiarly before a realization hit Usagi like a truck. The woman shouting possessed the same auburn hair and blue eyes as her friend and looked to indeed be her mom but that couldn’t be right.

“We have to go talk to her,” Naru said grabbing Usagi’s arm and once again they were being squashed between the crowd before being literally dumped in front of Mrs. Osaka. “Mama, what’s going on?”

Mrs. Osaka paused for a moment and looked at the two girls before putting on a smile, “Oh nothing, dear. I’m just having a sale today,” she then turned her attention to Usagi who straightened up, feeling a chill rush down her neck, but why? This was just Naru’s mom. “Would your little friend like anything?”

Usagi looked at her and then at the absurdly cheap jewelry hidden by the glass case. “Well, I-”

“I have just the thing for you!” Mrs. Osaka said, before walking away from the two girls who glanced over at each other. Seconds later, she came back with a polished black case and held it in front of the blonde fourteen-year-old. She opened it slowly to build the anticipation and temptation towards her before it finally opened all the way to reveal a beautiful and ornate crescent moon necklace of silver with a Gothic red rose being held in between the two horns resting on dark green velvet. It was truly beautiful and it seemed to almost be calling towards her. “Like it?”

“It’s beautiful!” Usagi cried, already reaching towards the purse she kept in her backpack.

“Good. Only 6,000 yen,” Mrs. Osaka replied.

Usagi looked up dejected. “I’m sorry. I don’t have enough money.”

The air suddenly grew colder and Usagi awkwardly smile at Mrs. Osaka as she snapped the box close as one of her eyes began to twitch. “Well, maybe you can ask your mother then.”

This line made Usagi go pale and seemed to visibly shrink at what she said with her backpack, where her failed test was, growing much heavier almost as if it wanted weigh her down and she knew why. She put her backpack down and pulled her test and glared at it, drowning out the voice of Naru arguing with her mother over this sale.

“I gotta go Naru,” Usagi said, as her grip on the test tightened.

Naru paused before looking over at Usagi before saying, “Oh okay, Usagi. See you later.”

Usagi nodded before shoving through the crowds before finally finding herself at the door to the store, her eyes still on the thirty of her test as she walked out. “If only I studied a little more,” Usagi scolded herself, staring at the bright red 30 that taunted her and how it promised her that once her mother sees it she will be in for a world of trouble. Usagi groaned loudly at the taunting number before starting to crumble it up and shouting, “Oh! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you, you stupid test!” before trying to throw it out of her life forever.

“Watch where you’re throwing things bunhead,” came the voice of an unfamiliar male.

Usagi blushed before turning around. “Oh, sorry!” she apologized only to see the guy she had hit in the head looking at her failed test.

“Thirty percent?” he commented and Usagi could’ve just died from embarrassment right then and there. It was bad enough her friends saw it but now this random guy too. “Looks to me like you should study harder next time bunhead.”

Usagi's face turned from embarrassment to anger. Who does this guy with his stupid green jacket, boxy sunglasses, and a red necktie think he is teasing her like that!? “Well! That’s none of your business,” she said, reaching out to snatch her test from his grasp before sticking out her tongue at him and began walking to the Game Center Crown. “Stupid jerk! In his green jacket, making fun of me,” Usagi muttered before stopping for a moment, looking at the guy in the green jacket who was just staring at the Osa-P’s sign without any obvious motion to walk away or inside. If he wanted something just go in! And don’t loiter! “What a weirdo,” Usagi whispered before walking away just as he took off his glasses to reveal his sapphire blue eyes that held a suspicious look.

_____________________________________________________________

Eventually, she made it to the Game Center Crown where she saw an advertisement for the new Sailor V video game and stopped a moment to stare at the poster where the titular hero was fighting off a pair of Yakuza members. “The new Sailor V game looks so cool!” Usagi then stopped to stare at the poster a bit longer, specifically at the illustrated superhero who looked so beautiful and courageous just like in real life, that it made Usagi smile as she imagined her heroine striking poses and beating up the bad guys, but that soon turned into a frown and give a sigh as she plopped down onto the floor. “I wish I could be like you,” Usagi said under her breath to the picture. “You’re my hero. So strong, courageous, beautiful, and you never seem to back down no matter how difficult it seems. You don’t have any tests to deal with or homework, and I bet taking all those bad guys down must be so amazing.” Usagi stared at the picture a moment longer before shaking her head and looking down at the failed English test still in her hand. “And I’ll bet you never disappointed your parents or teachers with bad grades,” Usagi said out loud as she stared at the dreaded paper. “I can’t believe I have to take this stupid test home!” Usagi cried before beginning to actually cry, no bawl, as she realized that she couldn’t even play the new game without her mother being furious at her for taking so long to get home when she had this stupid piece of paper in her hand that guaranteed her being chained to her desk to study.

Sniffling in defeat, Usagi wiped her nose before walking away with her shoulders slumped and her head hung low. However, unbeknownst to her, she was being watched by a pair of familiar red eyes who said as she left, “Tsukino Usagi, I’ve finally found you.”

___________________________________________________________

Usagi took deep, heavy breaths as she pushed the door to her house open. “Hey! I’m home!” Usagi cried in a cheerful voice to hide the nervousness in her voice while hoping her mother had gone shopping but like the rest of today, luck for her seems to have take the day off as standing before her was her mother holding a wooden spoon.

“Oh, you’re back. You’re sure late getting home today,” Ikuko said with a smile which did little to ease Usagi’s fears.

“Uh...Yeah, a little bit,” Usagi replied, scratching the back of her head.

“You know your friend Umino?” Ikuko continued. “I ran into him today at the store earlier today and they told me that your class got your exam results back and his score was a 95%. His parents must’ve been so proud to see that.”

“Oh really? Good for him,” Usagi said in response accentuating with a little, nervous chuckle before you looking to the said and muttering darkly, “Darn you Umino. I’m so going to get you back for this!”

As she grumbled and thought about the different ways she was going to end up strangling Umino, her mother walked closer to her and asked, “What did you get on your test, Usagi?”

Usagi halted her thoughts, her face twisted into one of fear at what her mother will do when she sees her test so quickly she started to think up an excuse, “Well...uh...actually the thing is,” but she couldn’t think up a single one.

“Can I see it?” Ikuko asked, holding out her hand to her daughter.

Dispirited, Usagi said in a sad tone a small, “Okay,” as she handed the test over to her smiling mother which was kept on, but Usagi knew better. She watched as her mother’s hands trembled, her face slowly transitioning into a frown, and the vein in her forehead visibly throbbing.

“30 percent?” Ikuko asked as she brought the test closer to her face, tightly squeezing the paper and wrinkling it in the process. “Usagi!” she cried, barely managing to hold back the frustration in her voice.

“Yes,” Usagi piped up a bit as she braced for impact.

“STOP BRINGING HOME GRADES LIKE THIS!” Ikuko screamed as she shoved the test in front of Usagi’s face. “GO OUTSIDE AND THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU’VE DONE!” she finished as she shoved the fourteen-year-old outside the front door.

Usagi began pounding on the door crying, “What? But Mom!”

“I don’t wanna hear it!” Ikuko called from inside.

As Usagi was crying at the door, she felt someone kick her behind and when she turned around she saw it was her obnoxious younger brother.

“Hey! You’re in the way,” her brother said. “So what huge mistake did you make for mom to kick you out for this time? You know I sure wish I had a sister that wasn’t a total loser,” he continued as he sprinted inside while flashing an L on his forehead at his older sister.

Usagi’s face turned red at this and she yelled out, “Oh how dare you talk to me like that!” Unfortunately, all she got in response was Shingo in the doorway sticking out his tongue at her. Needless to say, this did nothing to lessen her anger, and in fact, only cause her to shout louder, “That’s it! Sailor V Kick,” and she wound up to kick but only managed to hit her knee against the front door as Shingo shut it which caused her to whimper from the pain that was now flooding her senses. “OWIE!” she cried. “COME ON, MOM! LET ME IN ALREADY!”

As the sunset, Naru was walking back to the store after having picked up her and her mother’s dinner for the night, just as a woman wearing a ruby necklace passed her. Naru took no mind of her since that was a common sight especially as people were heading home for the night, but what wasn’t a common sight was what happened next. As Naru continued on her path, she heard a loud thud from behind her and quickly turned around to see the woman face down on the concrete, unmoving. Without another thought, Naru rushed over to the woman’s side and flipped her over to get a better look to make sure she had no visible injuries, no cuts or bruises, but she was pale. Too pale. Almost like all the color in her face had been drained out of her. That wasn’t good. “Don’t worry ma’am, I’ll call someone to help you. Just please hang on,” Naru said, as she laid the woman down and ran to the nearest payphone. Quickly, she deposited the coins into the slot and began to dial 119, tapping her fingers impatiently as she waited for the operator to come on.

“Hello? What’s your emergency?” the operator asked over the phone.

“A woman passed out on the sidewalk near the Jewelry Osa-P, please s-” Naru said when she felt the hairs on her arm stand upright, the air around her grew thick, and she felt cold eyes peering into her back. Naru looked behind her to see the woman she was trying to help now standing but her hair was covering her face, her necklace was glowing a blood red now, and her hand was raised above her head to come down to hit Naru! “AHHH!” Naru cried before without another thought, she dashed passed the ghoulish looking woman without even putting the phone back as the operator called out for her. She continued to run, calling, “Help! Please, help!” To her horror, though these would be calls that go unanswered as she saw that the people still on the streets were in the same state as that woman with pale skin and glowing jewelry and they were trying to attack her. “Someone help me!” she continued to scream before seeing her mother’s store still open, she gathered the last of her energy and raced inside, away from the mass of people following her.

Safely inside she pushed the button that allows the automatic door to open before locking it up tight as the mass of zombie-like people pushed against the door trying to force their way in which caused Naru to take a few steps back, trying to process what just happened and what was wrong with all of them. Her terrified eyes watching the frightening display when she noticed the jewels they were wearing looked just like the ones that her mother has sold earlier that day, but how would that be possible? Maybe her mother knows. Oh no. Her mother! Naru turned on her heel, ignoring the creatures outside as she ran screaming until her throat was hoarse, “MAMA! MAMA!” No response. She continued crying out for her as she jumped over the counter and threw open the door that led to the back room where the jewelry was kept where she finally found her mother but Naru couldn’t breathe a sigh of relief for instead of finding her mother safe, she found her bound, gagged, and unconscious. “Mama,” Naru whispered. “MAMA!” she called out again as she tried to run over to her, she felt something sharp dig into her arm.

“I wouldn’t do that if I were you,” an unfamiliar, cruel voice whispered in her ear. Frightened, Naru turned around and screamed.

_____________________________________________________________

“I’m so tired of homework,” Usagi whined as she flopped onto her bed. After her mother finally let her back into the house, she immediately sent Usagi to her room to finish her studies and warned her if she continues to bring home grades like this, she won’t ever see another sweet or TV again. Sighing Usagi flipped onto her side as she stared at the moon outside her window because, for some unknown reason, the sight of the moon was something that always comforted her, even as a little kid.

Yawning, Usagi’s eyelids began to grow heavy as she stared at the pale, crescent moon outside her window. She blinked once, then twice before her eyes shut as her body became still, but unbeknownst to her, a shadow lingered over her half-asleep form which was promptly awoken with the sound of a large thud. Usagi’s eyes snapped open out of fear that her house was now being invaded by a home intruder only to find that it wasn’t a human invader but a black cat that was now staring at her from the foot of her bed. At first, Usagi was simply confused, how did a cat get in her room since she knew for a fact that she had closed her window that night. Did she open it? No. That can’t be it. She was just a cat and yet...Wait why did she look so familiar? Usagi stared at her as the cat continued to lock eyes with her until Usagi shot up from her bed. “You’re that cat with the bald spot!” she cried sitting upright, pointing at her as she prepared herself for another round of being scratched up.

“Um, excuse me. It’s not a bald spot,” a female voice said.

“Who said that?” Usagi asked, looking around her bedroom only to find no one but her and the cat. It can’t be the cat because cats don’t talk and if they do, Usagi might need to see a doctor.

“That was me,” the voice came back and to Usagi’s shock and horror, it was the cat that made Usagi fall off her bed before hiding next to it.

“Y-you can talk?” Usagi asked, staring wide-eyed at strange talking, bald-spot having a black cat. “No way,” Usagi continued since this couldn’t really be happening since this is something that only happened in magical girl mangas. “How can a cat talk?” Usagi then asked out loud.

The cat, completely calm despite everything, coughed into her palm before saying, “Usagi, my name is Luna and you can’t imagine how long I’ve been looking for you.”

‘Oh no, this cat came to eat her or something!’ Usagi thought as she shook in fear at what was happening, though maybe that’s a stretch, but who knows? Maybe talking cats do eat beautiful and amazing 14-year-old girls.

The cat, Luna, continued, “First things first, I just wanted to say thank you for saving me from those kids earlier today and not mention taking that bandage off. With it on, I couldn’t talk and it dulled my sensory powers. I thought I was done when those kids put it on, but because of that it led me to you.” She then chuckled before walking closer to Usagi until their noses were practically touching but the middle schooler now aware of how close they were and out of her shocked state, tucked her head into her arms, praying that this weird dream would end.

“Go away,” she said, as she made loud snoring sounds hoping the cat would get the hint and leave already.

“What are you doing?!” Luna yelled. “This isn’t some kind of a dream you know!” she continued before placing her paws on Usagi’s head and trying to shake her up. “Come on! Stop fooling around!” she cried but Usagi was still pretending to snore away. “Okay! Let me prove to you it’s not a dream,” Luna finally relented, then took a deep breath before doing a backflip with a stream of energy flowing from her that fell onto the body and gathered to create a golden brooch with a crescent moon at the center with four colored jewels in red, green, blue, and orange.

Usagi peeked out from her arms, one eye-opening that landed on the beautiful piece of jewelry. “A little gift from me just to you,” Luna said with a smile.

“WOW! For me?” Usagi asked as she grabbed it to get a better look at it. “It’s so beautiful!” Usagi cried as she pinned it to her bow, completely forgetting about the fact it came from a magical talking cat.

“Usagi, I need you to listen to me,” Luna tried again to no avail.

“Thank you so much!” Usagi said as she twirled in place before rushing off to look at herself in the mirror.

“USAGI! I need you to listen to me!” Luna yelled again, trying to pull the fourteen-year-old’s attention away from her hanging mirror. “Strange things are happening in this city and the police won’t be able to handle what’s going on. A dangerous enemy has appeared and you might be the only one who can defeat this enemy! You’re the guardian that’s been chosen for this mission,” she continued jumping in front of Usagi who was finally looking at her again. “But there’s more than just that, you also have to find the other guardians and our princess.”

“Wow, really! That’s so cool,” Usagi said with the biggest, fakest smile.

“You don’t believe a single word I’m telling you, do you?” Luna asked with exasperation prevalent in her voice. How is she going to turn this girl into a guardian?

“Oh, sure! Of course I do,” Usagi said, though her shaking her head suggested otherwise.

Luna sighed, “Great. Just repeat the words I’m about to say, alright? Moon Prism Power Make-Up.”

“Okay, magic talking cat,” Usagi said with a salute, not really expecting anything to happen since this is just a dream anyway. “Moon Prism Power Make-Up!” Suddenly, she was sent into a trance as her body began to engulfed in a bright shining light that transformed her normal uniform into something brand new and also felt compelled to salute at the end.

Once out of this trance, however, she saw herself in her mirror but instead of the normal fuku she was used to in its place was now a much shorter blue and white one with a reddish-pink bow at the back with similar colored boots with white trim and crescent moon decoration on each on her feet and a pair of opera-length gloves covered her hands with pink at the edge. On her head, she saw she now had a golden tiara with a red jewel that was also the same as the ones that now decorated her buns and a pair of crescent moon earrings were now hanging from her ears. Taking a minute to register the change in her attire before crying out, “No way! What’s going on!?” Usagi looked herself over just to make sure she wasn’t imagining what just happened. “I don’t believe it! I transformed,” Surely this proves it’s a dream, right? Right?! She then pinched herself but the cat was still there and so was the transformed fuku. Okay, maybe it’s not a dream. “What is this? What’s this all about? Why do I look like Sailor V!” Usagi whined, why was this happening to her, “Tell me!” Usagi cried, tears now streaming down her face.

However, before she could get an answer from the cat, she heard a beeping sound from the hairpieces in her buns that steadily shifted into screams for help.

“HELP! Please, help!” the screams cried from someone very, very familiar. “MAMA! MAMA!” The connection then broke and it was silent once more.

‘Is that Naru?” Usagi thought to herself before looking at the cat. “How did I hear that?”

“Do you believe me now?” Luna asked.

Usagi looked down for a moment before back at the cat who possessed a smug smile. “I’m still not sure what’s going on but I can hear that Naru’s in big trouble!”

“Usagi, you have become a sailor guardian, so you have the ability to go and save your friend,” Luna told her.

Usagi stared at the cat. She knew this was weird and that she should probably just get back to bed, forget any of this ever happened...but she heard Naru’s screams of fright. What kind of friend would she be if she deserted her when she needed her? What kind of person would she be if she did that? Usagi took a deep breath in before nodding at the cat. “So what do I do?”

“I’ll train you when we get there, let’s go,” Luna said as she jumped out the window.

______________________________________________________________

“HELP! Let me go!” Naru cried, tears running down her face as she struggled against the monstrous humans as she stared up at the horrifying monster that had worn her mother’s face before changing into a true form.

“Cry all you want but no one will save you,” the creature said without a hint of emotion as she snapped her fingers and the humans held her head up to expose the pale flesh of her neck as the creature pulled out an exquisite necklace of pearls with an emerald pendent dangling from the middle, but like the others, it glowed with a sickly green.

Naru’s eyes widened as she fought harder against the ones holding her captive since even if she does become like one of them, she refused to go down without a fight. She kicked and screamed and even tried to bite one of them when she tried to silence her by covering her mouth. “HELP! SOMEBODY! HELP!” Naru screamed as she tried to back away from the creature who was now reaching out towards her and gripped her chin between her claws causing Naru to fall into a state of deep fear as she trembled in fear at seeing the horrifying creature move closer and closer towards her, her smile showing off her sharp fangs, the empty sockets with only small yellow orbs where her eyes should’ve been peering at her.

“Don’t worry. It will be over soon,” the creature said, breathing into Naru’s face that smelled like death itself.

“Get away from Naru-chan!” someone called as Naru fell her consciousness slip away from her and fell to the floor in a slump as the possessed humans let the fourteen-year-old go.

“Who are you?” the creature asked the shadowed figure at the doorway.

“Who am I...uh...” the figure asked before looking down at herself and at the moon before snapping her fingers and looked up cautiously at the humanoid monster. “I am the pretty guardian who fights for love and for justice. I am Sailor Moon and now in the name of the moon, I punish you!”

“Sailor Moon?” the creature asked before chuckling followed by the bursts of empty, mocking laughter from the humans around her which caused Sailor Moon to awkwardly shift in her boots. The creature then stopped and glared at the girl before making a flicking motion with her hand at the humans gather around her. “Destroy her,” she said and all at once the humans flung themselves at Sailor Moon.

“AHH!” screamed Sailor Moon as she clumsily ran to the side as the drained humans raced towards her. One tried to scratch out her eyes. Another had tried to hit her with a bat then someone else ran up to her I tried to staple her pigtail to the wall. Sailor Moon was quickly out of breath as she continued to barely avoid the mass of possessed humans who were now crowding around her, holding makeshift weapons around her. One of the women even managed to almost get a good hit in by smacking her into the back of the head with a glass bottle only foiled when Sailor Moon dodged to the ground. However, this didn’t stop the woman who now aimed the sharpened at Sailor Moon who barely managed to flee from its direction before tripping on the ground near a column. Pulling herself up, she stared at the advancing possessed humans and the evil creature now hovering above the ground, her wild tangled spread out as pointed towards Sailor Moon. “Why!? Why is this happening to me!?” Sailor Moon cried as tears came from her eyes.

“Time to end this!” it screeched as it’s arm extended out towards Sailor Moon, ready to strike as Sailor Moon screamed in terror when a rose appeared and pinned the monster’s hand to the ground.

“Now who are you?” the creature asked the figure hidden in shadow on the open second floor above.

“None of your concern,” the male voice replied before he turned his attention towards Sailor Moon who was still cowering against the column. “If you want to defeat this thing, you can’t cry. You have to fight.”

Sailor Moon felt a small bit of relief at hearing his voice, though she didn’t know why. Maybe it was the fact that he just saved her? Or maybe it was just nice hearing the voice of someone who wasn’t being possessed by the abomination before her, but it still wasn’t enough to stop her crying. “But I...!” Sailor Moon felt more tears pour from her eyes as they turned to bawls. “I WANNA GO HOME!” she screamed and as if on cue, her red jewel bun pieces began to vibrate and let out piercing, ultrasonic waves that caused the monster and possessed humans to clutch their ears to protect them and glass to shatter the cases on the empty jewelry cases

“Stop crying!” the monster cried as the frequency continued to leave her wide open something that didn’t go unnoticed by Luna who peeked out from behind the column where Sailor Moon was sitting next to you.

“You have an opening Sailor Moon!” Luna cried. “Take the tiara off and cry ‘Moon Tiara Boomerang.”

Sailor Moon nodded and took off her tiara. “Moon Tiara Boomerang!” she cried and just like that her once docile tiara became a spinning weapon of pure light that searched out the evil that was plaguing the store and it was a direct hit!

“AH!” the creature screamed as the tiara hit her in the abdomen before seeking out Sailor Moon once again who caught it in her right hand. Slowly the creature crumbled to dust before Sailor Moon’s shocked eyes and the once possessed humans fell unconscious where they stood as streams of energy flooded from the ash to their forms restoring them to a healthy state and the jewels to regular jewels once more. Wanting to get a closer look just to make sure that the thing was truly dead, Sailor Moon took a few cautious steps towards the pile of what was just the creature.

“Great job, Usagi!” Luna said.

‘Did I really just do that?’ Sailor Moon asked herself as continued to stare in a trance. Hopefully, that wasn’t a person at one point.

“How unfortunate. I couldn’t find what I was looking for,” she heard that male voice closer again. This brought her out of her thoughts and she looked behind her to see a male figure with his back to her with two fingers on one of the girl’s neck.

“Are they okay?” Sailor Moon asked him.

“They’ll fine,” he said as he stood up and looked back at her to reveal he was wearing a white domino mask covering his face, and for some reason he made her blush.

“W-who are you?” Sailor Moon asked ducking away from his gaze.

He paused before he smiled and turned towards her to reveal he was wearing a classy black tuxedo. He grabbed his cape and held it over his face before swishing to the side as he said, “Call me Tuxedo Mask! I hope we’ll meet again, Sailor Moon.”

“Tuxedo...mask?” Sailor Moon asked as he jumped up to the second floor and then faded into the shadows. She blushed as she watched him leaves as hearts appeared in her eyes, her heart hammering in her chest.

“Usagi?” Luna asked.

“He was so gorgeous!” Sailor Moon said with a dopey smile that she didn’t take notice of the sirens announcing the arrival of the ambulance and police.

“USAGI! We have to go!” Luna cried.

“Oh, uh, yeah,” Sailor Moon said as she followed Luna out an open window.

“How are you doing Naru-chan?” asked one of the other girls in their class. It was the next day and all the school had been talking about the break-in and the hypnotized people from last night. The official story the police put out was that someone broke into the Osa-P before escaping and that the people had been knocked out by the thief.

“I’m fine just a little tired,” Naru answered. “You know I could’ve sworn there was a monster and possessed people, but everything just becomes fuzzy afterward.”

“The mind can make up a lot of stuff when you’re frightened,” Umino said in response.

Naru nodded. “But it felt so real,” she continued before looking at Usagi. “Let’s see what Usagi-chan. Usagi-chan!” she called.

“No...Too tired,” Usagi said with a yawn she hid further into her arms as she tried to get a few minutes of shut-eye before class started.

“What? Up all night playing video games again?” Umino asked.

“...Something like that,” Usagi replied as she clutched her brooch.

Mineo Enomoto Character CD Mini-Drama Translation

T/N: This is a translation of the mini-drama that comes with Mineo’s character CD. Though a subbed fan video may come later, I haven’t uploaded the audio alongside this. If you buy the CD (Animate | CDJapan (Ltd Edition) | Play-Asia) or already have the track available, you can follow along while reading this! Thanks also to @jokertrap-ran for helping me proofread!

Translation key: Ichika’s thoughts: ellipses... | (Mineo’s thoughts) | [sound effects]

A Talk Between Two in the Steam

(Mineo Enomoto. 23 years old. Spring’s finally come for me too, and I’ve been spending happy days with my girlfriend. It’s truly a rose-colored life!)

(As for the love bible I stuck with, ‘100 Heart-Jerking Love Confessions’, I haven't opened it again. The reason why being… Now, by my own determination, I'm climbing up the stairway of adulthood! That's right. The stairway of adulthood that is traveling to the hot springs with my girlfriend...!)

Ngh… All right. The hostess left. God, I've been holding back since earlier. I…feel like I'm gonna explode...

...

Heh. So you noticed too, huh? It's just the two of us now… So… it's okay if I don't hold back anymore, right...?

Then… I'll say it.

--AT LONG LAST! SETTING FOOT UPON THE PLACE WHERE DATE MASAMUNE AND COMPANY ACHIEVED THEIR DREAMS - WE'VE ARRIIIIVED!!

Oh, man! I’ve wanted to try coming here for so long! I'm so glad I boldly launched the suggestion at you! It'd be boring going alone after all, y’know? I'm really grateful that you decided to come along with me.

...

Yeah, yeah! When Masamune and his company were here, his role in defending against and resisting outside invaders is what revived them…!

…

Huh? I'm as excited as a kid?

Hmph - well, I'm sorry. I'm a kid who admires Masamune so much I have an eyepatch for him after all. I mean, him being from the Sendai era would more than grab my attention…

But that's fine! I’m here with the same kindred spirit as him after all! Even without words, we'll be able to understand each other! This is - the MASAMUNE SPIRIT!

Whoops, I got kinda fired up there. Let's go bathe separately first!

(Hooo! The smell of cypress is real soothing…)

(A chance to be able to take a carefree bath like this rarely comes by… With the trip in general, I asked where she wished she could go, wanting to bring her there as a man should. But we ended up coming here ultimately.)

(But still, she came with me without pulling a single face.)

(Even though I didn't know what a mashed green soybean flavored shake would taste like, it was so cool when we both took no notice just drinking from our straws…! We tried to drink it at the same time and we ended up bumping our foreheads. But, when we looked up at each other, and started laughing after that…! Eheh! Eheheheheheh!)

(But, man, her eyelashes are so long... I couldn’t help but notice when she was looking at the shake… Ugh! What am I, Shiraishi now?!)

(...No. That’s not it. She's the only one I end up making observations of. That's just ‘cause I love her and I can't help but do that. In other words - I just feel like saying something…)

(Traveling with my girlfriend is THE BEEEEST...!!)

...Ah! Over here, over here! How was it? Did you enjoy the hot spr--! CU--!

(Gh! W-Wow… She looks amazing wearing a yukata…! It-can't-be-it-looks-too-good-on-her-more-than-that-it's-seriously-so…!)

E-Eh?! Oh, n-no no, it's nothing! More importantly, how were the hot springs? Were you able to relax in there?

…

Yeah, I feel you. The cypress floating in the bath gave it a classic Japanese feel, didn't it?

…

Ah. I saw the arcade corner too while I was waiting, but this also seems pretty promising. We might as well, so what game do you…?

…

Oh? The photo booth together?

Ohh, you wanna take some pictures? Well, we can write words onto them, so it’ll be something to commemorate our trip! Heheh. I have to brag about this to Takeru and Yanagi…!

…

Whooa…! So this is the famous… Ah, I’m not so good at handling complicated controls, so I’ll leave that to you!

Even though… I wonder what people who have it all would think in a situation like this… Ah, nothing, just talking to myself.

Oh, are we taking one now? What pose should we do?

…

Ehhh…? Clapping our hands together softly then making our faces small after? That seems cool. Let’s try that out!

[click!]

Wow! Look at those visual effects! Well, your face is small and cute to begin with, though--

Ow! What was that for?! It’s not something to hit me over!

…

Huh? Could it be you’re…being shy...?

! What’s with that…? If you suddenly make a face like that…even I’ll--

[click!]

Ah--?! I wasn’t looking at the camera…! Right, we’re still in the middle of taking pics, aren’t we? For a pose... Doing a generic peace sign should be a safe bet, right?

[click!]

The next one’s the last. Then we gotta go out with a bang. Plus we’ve come this far… Should we do a Date Masamune-like pose here?

…

Huh? ...You wanna take one with us holding hands…?

! What’s with that adorable request…?! Gah! If you’re okay with my hand, then do as you like!

…

O-Oh… I should sit closer, huh…

...You know. I’m...really happy right now.

[click!]

Next comes writing on them, yeah? There are two copies, so let's take one each and show what we wrote on them to each other afterwards! It’ll be more exciting that way!

First things first are the icon stamps, so...

Hehe. Damn… I’m having so much fun. I’m seriously so glad I got to travel with you! Coming to a place you like with the person you love is the best!

…

Huh? What’s up? ...We only have a bit of time left to doodle on them?

Ack, s-seriously?! This wasn’t the time to feel so moved inside! There’s still so much I wanna write…!

[stylus tapping]

No! Not yet! Don’t give up, Mineo! The first photo booth session for fulfilled-real-lifers I get in my life is the one thing I can’t let go to ruin…! I’ll pour all my feelings of love into this…!!

[frantic stylus tapping]

Th-That was close…! I barely managed to finish writing… Did you finish?

…

Hehh. That’s a real piece of work. Well, I’m only able to say that now. I fashioned a considerable tour de force in there myself.

Oh, they’ve come out. Let’s see, let’s see...

Ah--! You have an eyepatch too…! I see. You drew on one with a pen, huh? Lining it up like this… It's like a matching couple look…

…

Eh? That’s what you meant to…?

! N-Now, you! Just what’re you trying to do, making me so happy?!

…

Eh--? My pictures?

W-Wait, don’t yell so loud…! There wasn’t any time writing it, and I lost myself getting into it. When it suddenly stopped, I… ‘I love you most in the world’, is what I wanted I write…

...Eh? You’re happy?

Ha. I see. If that makes you happy too, then I’m glad.

Whenever we look at these, we’ll remember today. It’s...kinda weird! Us having a calm time like this...didn’t use to be a given, either. Back then, we went through pain, through sadness. Even now, there are people out there desperately doing their best. Everyone has hard times to overcome, and their daily lives to get on with now.

...Ah, my bad. I got a little solemn there! Wait, what time is it now…? They said there’d be dinner at 7, didn’t they?

All right! There’s ox tongue calling our name! Let’s hurry...!

Ahh, I’m absolutely stuffed! That ox tongue was so thick and tasty! My feet went on their own and got three helpings for dinner! Ah, it was tough…

[tea being poured]

Oh! Thanks!

[sip]

Going back to our room after a feast and having you pouring tea for me… Maaan, it’s just perfect!

…

Oh? What now? That’s true… We’ve done what there is to do outside the ryokan for the most part…

(...)

(!)

(...!!)

(Crap…! What do I do?! I don’t know what we should do now that it’s just us two in the room…!)

(Not to mention, looking right at her in the eye while she’s in her yukata makes my heart pound-- Ah, wait. It’s awkward to keep silent. Umm, uhhh…!)

(Ah! Why don't we sleep sooner! No! It's still 9 - that's way too early!)

(What else could we do… Nnrgh…! Do you wanna explore the ryokan! What am I, some primary school kid?!)

…

Eh?! You brought playing cards…?

Oh… OHOHO, nice! Why don't we play old maid or something!

…

(Phew! What a lifesaver…!)

(...No. Hold on. Could this be…she saw me struggling and threw me a bone when I needed it? Things like this happen every time…)

(She…must be thinking that…)

…Hey. ...I, uh… I'm probably just a kid in your eyes, aren't I…?

…

I mean, today… I wanted to escort you from the beginning, but at some point I just started having fun by myself. I wanted to…be classier doing this. Heh… Even though I think it’s shameful even by my own standards…

[table slam; rattling]

Whoa! Y-You scared me… Eh, w-was that something to get angry over…?

…

! It's okay if I'm not an adult…? But I'm the older one here. At some point if things keep going like this--

…

Eh! I-I get it - calm down…!

…

Being in high spirits together with me - is fun…?

...I also enjoy being with you best. I wrote that on our pictures earlier, too. That you're the one who I…love most in the world, so…

…

Hm? That's…the one we took earlier, isn't it? Ohh. We were so pressed to get to dinner, we didn't really get to see what we wrote on it.

…

Ah! You wrote something on it, too? Let's see… Mineo, I...love you…

Th-This…! …!

Really? You also wrote you love me. To think that we get along even on this… Eheh. Man, how much do we love each other?

Hah… I'm sorry. Of course that'd make you angry. You said you love me as I am now after all. I'm not me when I force and overstretch myself. That's what you mean, right?

Hey. Come over here a bit.

…

You know, I… keep feeling like I'm acing an exam when I'm with you. Just being able to travel with you made me ecstatic, and when I saw you climbing over the rock in your yukata as well, it was…kind of…different from how you normally are. It got my heart racing. When I sat closer to you when we took pictures in the photo booth, stuff like the smell of your shampoo seriously got to me.

Then, uh… I'm saying this now, but… The truth is, I...felt a little like wanting to… k...kiss you...

…

Eh--! Stupid! Don't say stuff like you'd be glad even if I did! Don’t underestimate me. Now see here - men easily get carried away! You're someone I…want to treasure.

… [hand holding]

…!

You're…always like that.

No matter how much I run away… you chase me, hold onto me, and don't let me go. You got more guts than your outward appearance suggests. You're a cool woman.

Though this is the last time I'm making sure… It's really okay?

…

Heh. I got it. Then…

[kiss]

Your heart's pounding... Hehe. Mine is too.

But, you know. We're okay like this. Having the same feelings, we reach an understanding, and move forward together. Going like that suits us most. Though I end up putting on airs in front of you, saying what I really think like this and being natural at times is also important.

Same goes for you. If you have something you want to say, say it without holding back.

…

Oh? That face means there’s something you wanna say...! C’mon, what is it? Try saying it!

…

...Eh? ...W-...Wait a sec… I-I might've misheard you… J-Just now, what...did you say?

…

Gh--! Y-You want to sleep together...?! Wai… I-Isn't the hurdle suddenly too high?! Are we going that far up the stairway of adulthood and the like...?! I mean, it's not like I didn't think of that at all, but - I thought of taking it slow and building up to the climax where--!

…

...Eh? …Next to each other?

..Ahhh, so that'd be, uh… Sleeping snuggled up in the same futon… That kind of sleeping together?

...Ha. Hahaha! AHAHAHAHA! U-Uh, of course...! I thought that's what you meant! I-If that's what you'd like, we can do that however much you want! I’ve done that with my little sister! I'm her companion when I babysit!

…

H-Hey, hey, you don't need to pull my sleeve for me to...

…

Huh? ...Hey... Your face is - looking kinda scary...

…

Not the same as my sister…? Wh-- Ah-- Oh, no! When I said that I didn't mean it like...!

…

Wha-- Oh, w-whoa, whoa...!

Uh-- Umm… I made a slip-up, earlier. I apologized, so...please cheer up.

…

C’mon, it's not that I treat you like a little sister...! Mnghh…!

...I got it. It'll be fine if we sleep together like lovers, right? Uh… Then…

[shifting; rustling]

…How's this? It's an arm pillow. Th-This is - only something lovers do, right?

…

Gh--! Is that it…?! You little…! Even though this is plenty given the situation…! If you make too many demands now… That mouth of yours? Will be sealed shut.

…

Ha. Jeez… I understand how you feel veeery well. Even for me… To be this close to you, and not do anything about it…is impossible.

[kiss]

For all of today, and until morning comes… I won't let you go.
