ACTION KINDA, day 167

[candybars]

[ He isn't a fan of embarrassing moments, so he simply leaves the small package in front of her door, knocks, then bolts for it...

inside is...!!

x1
x1 breeders guide (tells her all about keeping the eggs with you, keeping them warm, items, etc)
x1 pokeball
x3 potions
x3 revive

GOOD LUCK!! ]

[saving_sound]

[She answers the door of course, looking confused when it turns out there's nobody there. A prank, maybe...?

It takes her a second to notice that there is something on the ground, and it's not until she gets back into her room that she opens up the package. And when she sees what's inside...

...Well. Color her very, very confused. Wh-who would leave something so precious outside of her door-??

But there's no time for that! It takes her a little while to get through the book, but the moment she sees the part about keeping it warm, she immediately bolts to get a bundle of blankets to wrap around the egg. She's never dealt with caring for any sort of egg before, and while it's exciting to think that it will hatch someday, it's a little nerve-wracking to be in charge of it all by herself-!!

...

Maybe she should give somebody a call about this, just to make sure she can take care of it properly...]

[voice]

[suppressthedark]

Hey, Hibiki. There's going to be free tea and hummus-Dunno if you've ever had that, but it's good-at the shop I work at tomorrow. It's called A Needle in A Haystack, and it's in Odin. Just thought I'd let you know, since I haven't seen you around lately.

[Also he's being a big brother shush]

[voice]

[saving_sound]

[There's a bit of a shuffling sound before she replies. Is she still in bed?]

T-Tea...?

[Her voice is rougher than usual. Probably due to crying a lot, given the person in question.]

[Norman's really not sure how this is going to work out, but he should at least try...]

Hey.

[Text]

[saving_sound]

[When she first gets the text, she actually freezes up, unsure of how to respond. Their argument hasn't left her thoughts, and she's worried, so very worried. What if she messes up again? What if she says something wrong, and he really never wants to be friends?

...It takes a while, but she does eventually type out a reply.]

Hello.

[...What if that was too short? Maybe she should have said something else, too? What do you even do in situations like this???]

[Action]

[comeonthensexy]

[ Knocking on her door! ]

[Action]

[saving_sound]

[Oh? Who could that be?]

I'm coming!

[And in just a moment, she's got the door open, blinking up at the Doctor in surprise.]

Ah-- Doctor?

text || day 284

[saving_sound]

yes i made it back safely you werent injured more were you

[Action]

[2cool4guardian]

[After things calm down and Jack finally gets to rest and recover, he also gets to go through what happened ind detail, memory by memory. The attack was so sudden and so strong, he lost track of everyone. He didn't keep his promise.

Worried about Hibiki and determined to make it up to her, Jack goes out to explore the Sygin district with a bullky paper bag in his hand. Seems he has something for her!

Hopefully he finds her before it melts.]

[Action]

[saving_sound]

[Hibiki is actually on her way back to the Welcome Hall from the hospital, although she seems to be thinking about other things as opposed to paying strict attention to her surroundings. At this rate, he'll probably spot her long before she even realizes he's there.]

[Some kind of Action - random day of festival week]

[2cool4guardian]

[Guess who has played (and won) every single game in the festival? Jack has. And now he's got a bunch of prizes he has no interest in keeping.

Most of them have been given to the Asgardian kids... but he's saved a couple. One of those is now waiting for Hibiki, standing on the window of her room. The little card that usually comes attached to plushies has no words, just a snowflake drawn in it. Hopefully she understands who it comes from?]

[saving_sound]

[Hibiki is quite tired out from all of the activity that day and finds herself staring at the gift, wondering if she had gotten the toy somewhere and just forgotten about it. Of course, once she goes to pick it up, she notices the card.]

A snowflake...?

[.......Huh?

Well, it's very cute, and it seems to be a gift, so she'll just... give a tired smile before climbing into bed, snuggled up with it. She'll have to figure out who gave it to her someday...]

Day 308 :: Voice

[kuramaless]

Hey, Oi Sasuke--

Are y'there?

Man, this thing has been like stupid right? I think I accidentally touched that ice too much, my fingers still feel frozen.

We should go out for ramen, yeah? I'm gonna get Gaara to come too.

I'm coming over there now. I can see your house.

Er, yeah I'm here. You comin' down?

Day 308 :: Attempted Video, but really Voice

[saving_sound]

[Huh...? She switches onto video response, not quite realizing that the bracelet isn't functioning like it should be.]

Umm, I think you got the wrong person, but... Are you okay? I can come heal you if you need it.

voice

[multifacets]

Hibikiiiii ♥ It’s Rise! Did you still want to meet up? I found a job, so it’ll be my treat!

voice

[saving_sound]

O-oh... we can do that! Do you want to meet somewhere? I'm just at the Welcome Hall now.

[Audio] Predate before Bad Moon Rising event

[snugglesjugs]

Hey Hibiki! I need to talk to you abut something, call me back when you can!

[Audio]

[saving_sound]

[Oh...? What could it be?]

Aladdin-san? What is it?

334 || text

[freezerburned]

are you there

[saving_sound]

[...? Everything's been a little weird since she woke up again... was there something she was supposed to talk to Isaac about?]

Yes

[Night of 334 | Action]

[2cool4guardian]

[As soon as they arrive to Asgard and the bracelets start working again, Jack checks the network, ready to tease anyone who missed the trip, post some embarrassing pictures and of course, say hi to his friends. What he finds there is enough to interrupt all his thoughts of fun.

Still dressed in his party clothes, Jack stomps his way into the Sigyn halls, his first stop being Sandy's room, of course. Once he manages to calm down a little, he's ready to check on his other friends, especially the little kids he loves so much. He can't be crazy of worry in front of them.

After taking a deep breath, he knocks on Hibiki's door more gently that he thought he could manage.]

Hibiki? Kiddo, you there?

[Night of 334 | Action]

[saving_sound]

[She just barely hears it, having been snuggled deep into her blanket after a good cry. She's done that quite a bit lately; it's always been a bad habit of hers, but recently it's just gotten even worse.

Still, she can't just hide forever. It takes a bit, but she eventually shuffles her way to the door, opening it up just a crack to see who it is.]

J-Jack...?

Day 345 | voice

[firstbeliever]

Hey, Hibiki! Did you see that kid talking about going to see the natives that live outside the city? Do you wanna come check it out with me?

Day 345 | voice

[saving_sound]

With Aladdin-san, right? I heard about that! So you're going too, Jamie-kun?

Day 395 Action

[snugglesjugs]

[He's finally gotten home from work. After getting a snack he heads over to the living room. Where he spots ]

Hey Hibiki, I was thinking, should we have a home warming party? At least I think that's what it's called.

[saving_sound]

[She's in the midst of feeding her animals when he asks.]

A home warming party...?

I don't mind celebrating, but... what do you do at a home warming party?

[asgardsbeauty]

[In honor of the Earth holiday centering on love, Freya sends out a little gift around this time.

A small box containing a piece of chocolate will appear on your pillow during the day. When consumed, the chocolate’s magic will lift your mood for a short period of time. It’s accompanied by a note.]

Where love might bring about sorrow, it also welcomes joy.

backdated to Day 400

[asgardstricks]

[ In honour of the god centering on love being a giant frilly prissypants, Loki sends his own little gift just a few hours after hers.

His box of chocolate will look, smell, and taste exactly like Freya's did, appearing right next to where Freya's was or is if you haven't picked it up yet. The only difference between the two is that Loki's won't lift your mood; it'll give you loud and embarrassing flatulence for the next three hours.

It's also accompanied by a note. ]

Where joy might bring about yearning, it also welcomes wonder.

[saving_sound]

[Oh gosh this is so embarrassing. But at least it's her day off so she won't be around anybody...]

day 405, action

[abhero]

[Technically, he could’ve done it right after Baldr fixed things. But he told himself she must be exhausted, it won’t be good to talk on a late hour, so soon after...

If Hamel was completely honest, he’d admit he didn’t think of Hibiki, he thought about himself. He couldn’t bring himself to face her. But even Hamel’s selfishness has its limit. He knows this guilt all too well; the poor kid must feel awful and she doesn’t deserve it. So two days later, in the morning, he sucks it up and texts Hibiki.]

I’m coming over.

[A short while after, he’s knocking on the condo’s door.]

Hibiki, open up.

[saving_sound]

[She's terrified.

She knew she would have to meet him, of course. She has to apologize, even if no apology would ever be enough. But at the same time...

She's scared. He must hate her, and he has every reason to.]

C--

Coming...

[Her voice is timid, cracking. And while she does begin to walk to the door, her steps are faltering.

Deep breath. She has to face him now.

Slowly, she opens the door, peering up at him with trepidation.]

day 414, text+audio

[abhero]

cause you said you never got to hear proper music

[Attached are dozens of audio files - classical pieces played by Hamel on his violin. Each track is, of course, labeled with the name of the piece and the composer. He thought about making it after Hibiki told him she's never been to a performance, and the mess ten days ago pushed him to actually go through with it. This was something nice he could do without feeling stupid or guilty. Music was better than words, it wouldn't hurt her feelings with a callous comment.

He plays for hours each day. All he had to do was to keep his bracelet on.]

1/???

[saving_sound]

[It takes her a bit to realize what it is, but the moment she does, she messages him back.]

Thank you so much Hamelsan!!!

D417 | audio;

[discrepant]

[Once he had finished his conversation with Aladdin, Soushi has decided to take his advice and contact the person he was referred to for help.]

Good day. I apologize for this brief interruption. I am in need of help, and I was referred to you by Aladdin-san. [And.] I would like to ask for your expertise over the topic of pets.

[So...]

Whenever you have the time, please do contact me. It'll be a pleasure to hear from you. My name is Soushi Miketsukami. Thank you.

[And that will be it.]

audio;

[saving_sound]

Aladdin-kun?

[What would Aladdin be talking about her for...]

Um... I do keep a lot of pets, but I'm not really an expert or anything...

[Still, she can't quite stop herself from asking:]

What kind of pet is it?

Video

[snugglesjugs]

Hi Hibiki, I need to ask you a pretty big favor. Call me back when you get this message please.

Video

[saving_sound]

Aladdin-kun...?

What is it?

481 (CW: Sex-related talk)

[samantha_grey]

[If Samantha ever met Aengus, she would throttle him for the hell that was her life at times. Her father wasn't available anymore after all. After spending the previous night with Desmond, she was feeling more herself, but no less relishing this little conversation. However, she'd promised to call, so...

Cue an uncomfortable video call from Samantha. She was trying to look relaxed on her couch and failing miserably.]

So... you were wanting to know what a succubus is, and what a half-succubus like me was, right?

(OOC: Figured I'd get this one started. ^.~)

[saving_sound]

[Ah yes, that had been a thing, hadn't it? Hibiki had clean forgot with all of the aftermath to clean up. It's lucky she's on break right now!]

That's right! I almost forgot...

If you don't mind explaining...?

before leaving for utgard! audio;

[bloodypocket]

Hibiki, I'll be leaving for Utgard soon.

Is there something you will want from there?

audio;

[saving_sound]

Eh? Eyes-san?

[She wasn't expecting a call from him! So he's going to Utgard, huh...]

I think I'll be alright! Besides, you're going there to get supplies for everybody here in Asgard, aren't you? You don't have to worry about getting anything for me!

D523 afternoon, text

[windbreak]

[Of course Hibiki gets an invite.]

Hi there!
Just to let you know:

We all survived rations and other crazy stuff lately so why not, right??
Bring your own food if you want
Hope to see you there! Laterz!

[saving_sound]

[!!!]

Ill be sure to bring something i cant wait thank you for inviting me!!!

D561 evening, audio misfiiiire

[windbreak]

Yo! P-Partner.

[His hesitation there is hardly perceptible, except for the off note that sounds in its silence.]

Uhh, listen. I guess you're not around today either, but let me know when's a good time to give you your scarf back. You know, you dropped it the other day? While we have the chance... [Whoops, hold on. He's going for as casual as possible here, and that's an entire off symphony.] Oh, not that I - ugh, you know what I mean. It just kept slipping my mind.

[This silence, in contrast, lingers. Even when he finally breaks it, it bleeds into his train of thought.]

Hey, seriously? I'm not mad. You knew that, right? You should've figured it out by now. You're... important to me, no matter what. And I keep trying to be someone you can rely on too. After all this is over, that's not gonna change. It's slow, but I wanna think I was getting there... so...

[...Goddamnit. Well, it doesn't matter. Which is to say it matters a lot, for Souji as well as him, but at least he can trust Souji to understand what he's getting at. Good thing he never has a reason to spout this kind of emotional crap to anyone else!]

...Alright, yeah, I know. But call me back anyway, okay? Later.

audio

[saving_sound]

[She doesn't get to the message right away, busy with work as she is, but once she does, it takes a few seconds of confusion for it to dawn on her. This... wasn't meant to go to her, was it?

It was probably intended to be private, but it's too late. She's listened to the entire thing, and there's nothing she can do to forget what she just heard. And even if she did, Yosuke may never realize he still needed to talk to the proper person.

Ahhh, what to do? Either way feels terribly rude...!

It's only after a while of debating it that she finally responds, her voice a mix of meek and embarrassed.]

U-um... Hanamura-san...?
