         If possible, his grin widened throughout her giggles & he spun around twice more for the sake of it all before he set her back down. Taking the hand on the back of his head into his, he spun her twice around as well before he stopped her with both hands back on her waist.  ❛ Guess who’s all patched up again! ❜

❛ ruriko, hi! ❜ theresia’s voice was cheery and bright, exhaustion and fatigue wiped away by the  double espresso  she had had one of freya’s minions make for her. ❛ i’m gonna leave town for a bit, soonish, and i wanted to buy some outfits  suited  for travelling? ❜

Yesterday Japanese girls celebrated the coming of age day as they turned the special age of twenty or hatachi in Japanese.🎀 The age is special in Japan as it means the girls take a step into adulthood and towards it's responsibilities.💝 During this day the girls get to doll up with special make-up, hairstyles and dress up in the pretty and kawaii furisode kimono.👘🎎💖 Tokyo Disneyland is one of the most popular spots where Mickey and Minnie Mouse welcome the celebrators and Minnie might also be wearing a furisode.🏰 Another favored spot is the Toshimaen amusement park where you can see many kimono glad girls riding rollercoasters. 🎢 Check out more pictures and get in the festival mood here ► https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/seijinnohi/

[ waits at the coffeeshop until her shift is over and immediately finds her after that, arms coming around her waist and lips formed into a pout ]

The touch of hands on her waist immediately caused Nat to jump, only relaxing once she realized that it was Rue. A smile easily slid onto her face and she willingly snuggled the arms around her. 

     “Hey Rue, what are you up to?”

Most would not even have noticed the other woman’s gesture, but Auburn had never been  most.  In the past two thousand years, it had happened too many times for Auburn to still be surprised when someone was looking at her hair. Apparently, the vibrant shade of red had never lost its ability to get a  reaction  from strangers and so she shrugged at the other.

            Freya Rosen was not sure when or how this had happened, but she had slipped into a routine. And this routine demanded that she bought fresh flowers --- lilies, preferably --- on her way home on certain days. Nothing would happen if she would miss it, but she liked to stick to a schedule. And this was why she was carrying a large bouquet of flowers as she was hurrying home, throwing warning glares at the darkening skies. She did not mind rain, usually, but she wanted to have reached her apartment before it would start.

            But as so many times before, fate had different plans for her --- and two things happened at once. One. She tripped, maybe over her own feet, maybe over a stone, maybe over nothing. Two. Her lilies were flung away from her, into the direction of a stranger, as Freya’s knee hit the ground, causing her to wince before she pushed herself up.

                           ❛ ---that wasn’t too graceful, I guess. ❜ Definitely deduction of points for execution of this ‘move’. ❛ Sorry, I usually don’t throw flowers at strangers. ❜

                Leah lovedflowers — something that might be a side effect of what she was, but she preferred not to dwell on it. Instead, she justappreciated them whenever they were given to her, especially when they were comingfrom someone so young, so lively.

               “Thankyou very much,” she said as her fingertips brushed carefully over the petals. “Theyare — beautiful.”

            Content with catching her attention, James released a soft, pleased hum once she turned towards him, his good arm placed over her legs as he let her warm kisses wash over him.  ❛ Man, ❜ He sighed, letting his fingers trail the length of her thighs to her waist before he dragged her form a little closer, as close as his injured arm would allow.  ❛ Am I the luckiest man alive to find the best wife? ❜

" siiiiaaaaa! " she exclaimed in a rather LOUD chime, skipping over to the other and wrapping her arms around her. " guess what happened! i hooked up with the CUTEST bartender a while back and now BOOM we're TOTALLY a couple and he's absolutely amazing, oh my god. also, who's the tall guy you're dragging around? "

theresia smiled as  she listened to the other, gently hugging her back as an eyebrow rose. her ability to feel happy for others rather than to dissolve in a puddle of resentment and self-pity had been what had kept her afloat after claude had died. because it would have been so easy to resent everyone else for being happy, for having someone in their life while she had lost someone she had loved so early and to such unfortunate circumstances.

( not that claude having been killed on on purpose would have improved the situation. )

❛ happy to hear you’re happy, ❜the brunette said warmly as she gently freed herself from the other woman’s grip. ❛ you’ll have to introduce him to me at some point, ja? as for me … well, there are two guys who are tall around me lately — mr elwell, we work together, and dimitri. though i guess you mean dimitri? he’s a friend. ❜

she was pretty  sure that ruriko was referring to dimitri, but she had had dinner with mr elwell — dion — once or twice to discuss some of the details of their current business project, and thus there was a realistic possibility that rue had spotted them. only that it was far more likely that theresia had been seen with the other man since — well, that was basic stochastic and the result of spending more time in total with dimitri.

[ intensely stares at his general jaw, then slowly points at it to stress her amazement with it ] --that's some stubble you've got there, mister! stubbles are aweeeesome! does it ever itch? ouh, does it prickle when you rub it against someone's cheek?

               He felt her stare before he saw the slow rise of her finger, but really, Mark was a master of ignoring people. He thought at first that she was just another immortal that recognised him from centuries ago that he simply pushed out of his memory ( or one of the bystanders of his and Yule’s little RECONCILIATION ), a thought that was pushed out of his mind as soon as the green haired, bubbly doll opened her mouth.

                Of course his lips turn into a smirk; how could he not be amused by such an unusual compliment. True, he was rather fond of his stubbly, messy look but more often than not he got a ‘take care of yourself more!’ comment than an impressed one. It was, after all, just a stubble. ❛ You haven’t seen many stubbles in you life, have you kid? ❜ He mused, throwing an apple into the air. ❛ Wouldn’t know. I don’t go around rubbing it into people’s faces. ❜
