Sleep on the Galaxy Express station

12:53 PM

He sleeps so peacefully, on the damn station floor

Just stand at looking at Crow "let's go back, Crow-" He carries sleeping little bat on his back, and walk back to the school area

Alan stops all of a sudden, puzzled. He made it to the galaxy express. This is definitely not where the Obscuary dorms are. He glances around looking to see if anyone is near by, at this point he should suck up his pride and ask for directions… Leo could possibly be in trouble, and if anything went wrong it would backfire on him as the Captain…

Jo walked from Frostheim to the Galaxy Express. She's not totally sure why. It just felt like the place to be right now. She had no plans of going off-campus though. Maybe she was forgetting something? Jo checks her phone.

Ryu staggers to the galaxy express, clutching his side as his uniform slowly turns deep crimson.

2

wonders around ~~

Alan makes his way from the diner all the way to the galaxy express. He sees three people already here. Towa, and two other students. He believes he’s seen the blonde around before. Judging from her attire he can tell she’s from Frosthiem, he vaguely recalls that she’s a ghoul as well. As for the other guy, he looks closer and notices that he’s bleeding. He walks up to the bleeding man. You alright? Need help?

2

Jo finished her confused text conversation with Zero before she glanced up, first catching sight of Towa, then a strangely injured Ryu, and... Alan Mido? Why does her face suddenly fill with warmth in the cool air? Why's her heart beating so fast? Why the fuck is she walking up to Towa with a charming smile on her face? "Towa, darlin'! How I've missed seeing you around," she declares, draping her arms over his shoulders. Then she glances at Ryu and for the first time ever in all of their history, there's not a single ounce of animosity there. "Hey, you."

tilts his head confusef ...?~

"Does this express have a line to a cliff?"

Alan stares at Ryu, brows furrowed. What an odd question to ask. He clears his throat, Don’t think so. He looks at Ryu up and down. You do know you’re bleeding, right?

"That is of little consequence to me. I intend to depart from this mortal plane."

a: Okay so this guy is clearly going through something, but Alan’s started to get restless again, he needs to get moving, so whatever he won’t stop this dude. Okay. Bye. With that Alan leaves, not before shooting a curious look Jo and Towa’s way. Huh he never knew they were an item. Interesting. He guesses opposites do attract after all (edited)

3

"Oh, Towa," Jo says as she watches his head tilt. "You're just too cute, y'know that? I never noticed before just how pretty your eyes are." She throws another strangely non-threatening glance Ryu's way and smiles. "I mean, even you... you're kinda pretty even when you're bleeding out. Guess Zero wasn't so wrong about you." Jo waves over-enthusiastically at Alan as he walks away.

3

so fucking confused and so much is happening, he just starts to leave

2

"Nooo, Towa!" Jo clings onto his arm. "Please, don't leave me. You can't-- not like everybody else."

5

hugs and headpats

Ryu decides to take a different approach. And heads for the library.

"Aw, wait- bye, Ryu!!" she calls after his retreating figure. Unfortunately for Towa, her attention is squarely on him now. She nuzzles her head into his chest when he hugs her. "You're so sweet, Towa. How could I have ever gone without you until now?"

??? head tilt, so confused

Jo sighs, lovestruck as she looks up at him again. "Come on, you must be hungry. Are you hungry? I'll get you some nice flowers, sweetheart, only the best for you."

smiles and stays quiet

"Come on!" Jo gently takes Towa's hand to tug him along to Jabberwock. https://discord.com/channels/1316555770204127273/1319129563141242953

He limps to the Galaxy Express and boards it. Before the doors close he speaks aloud in the direction of the campus. "Congratulations Kurosagi. You managed to do what many others have tried and failed. You humiliated me in a way that my own arrogance cannot shield me from. A job bloody well done." He drops his phone on the floor and smashes it under his boot. While the Express is in motion, he pulls an emergency exit lever to open a window and jumps into the swirling glittery abyss between dimensions. It is unknown what becomes of Ryu after this point.

Oh, what Ken wouldn't give for a permit to go to a cosplay café right now...

drags jasmine to the trains gate and lets go of her hair finally taking a few chunky strands with her fist “okay here we are”

whatever. See you in hell. leaves

smiles and waves goodbye as she gets on the train before the doors close she looks her in the eyes “if you come back don’t expect to leave here alive”

1

she then turns after the doors shut and pulls out her phone calling a number “Hello Yumihara. Ah yes I will email you those details as soon as I as I get back to my room, but I have a favour can you look into black listing one jasmine Reed from working here and renewing any visas or in the future from re entering Japan?….you can! Great! Thank you and I try to make a trip into Tokyo by the end of the month okay? Okay. Toodles”

heckle started a thread. 2/13/2025 1:50 PM

Ritz said hello to the anomalous crocodiles on her way past the bus station near here.

After the Uber ride, Leo collapses onto one of seats in their train cart. It's empty. The Galaxy Express usually was since it was unlikely for students to have access to the outside at the same time and place. He didn't really like riding on here and opted to have Sho take him places. That wasn't really possible in this scenario.

Seiya drops the guy next to Leo, using him as some sort of barrier between them and sits down.

Leo frowns. "Gross, put him on the other side. This dude stinks."

"..." Seiya moves the guy onto the other side of him, not moving to sit closer to Leo.

1

The train cart door closes. After a few moments, they start moving. Leo sets one of the water bottles he took earlier next to Seiya, before opening up the other one and drinking out of it. After downing a third of it, he wipes the moisture away with the back of his hand. "Damn, you gonna be all pouty like that the whole time?"

Seiya takes the water bottle. "Pouty? No, my lips are just naturally plump and juicy." He shrugs and takes a sip of his water.

3

1

Leo takes out his phone and pulls up his socials. He leans back into his seat and glances briefly at Seiya before turning his attention back to the screen in front of him. "...They're alright."

"You've never tried them before, how would you know?"

2

"It's not like you're gonna ask me to, quit being a tease." Leo retorts in a lackluster tone, as he types out a reply in a comment section.

"Someone sounds salty." Seiya opens his phone to pass the time.

Leo hums. "Yeah, not really into the whole 'playing hard to get' thing. Gets boring real fast." He's lying and he knows it.

"Your loss." Seiya reaches into his pocket to retrieve and apply (peach flavored if that matters) lip balm.

4

"..." ... For some reason Leo's mildly annoyed. It doesn't make sense so he squashes it like 'Fly on the Wall #1'. "...Are you still mad?" The train cart shifts a little more abruptly. Leo inadvertently shifts in his seat. Probably hit a bent track or something.

“About what?”

Leo's browline creases for a microsecond, but he fixes it back into his usual pokerface effortlessly. "...Okay. So you're either not mad, or we're looking at a list. Which is it, himbo?"

"Are we talking about you not telling me about Jo and Zero? Or you kissing Jo?" He doesn't look up from his phone.

Leo suppresses a smirk, despite being annoyed by his standoffish behavior just seconds before. "...Uh, which one pisses you off more?"

"Doesn't matter, I'm over it." He types away at his phone.

"...It's not like--" Leo shuts up. ... Ew, ew, ew, ew. What the actual fuck was that? Leo would rather chew on shards of glass than sit here and explain himself to the stupid himbo, so why was he starting to do it just now? Barf. Gross. Jump. "...About time."

2

4

Seiya looks up from his phone. "It's not like what?"

Leo's kind of mad by this point. He sinks into his seat and switches to his alt account and starts terrorizing people online. Despite his efforts to seem unbothered, his face feels warm. Where the fuck can he go? The bathroom? As if that wouldn't be more incriminating.

5

"What?" Seiya grins, saying his incantation in his head. In a mockingly high pitched (Leo's) voice, he says.. "I-It's not like I like you or anything baka!"

6

The phrase itself was fucking annoying. Imagine how much more that was amplified when it dawns on Leo that Seiya's not just mocking him. He's using his fucking voice. The vice-captain opens his mouth, ready with a pissy retort. But it's anticlimactic. Nothing comes out. "..." Leo's pretty sure he's going to kill Seiya. Not pretty sure, he's going to. Eventually. Fuck this guy and his dumbass plushies and his stupid relationship problems. Maybe Zero should reel him back in just to cuck him again. This guy needs it-- a good fucking humbling. And to think he was about to explain himself. Leo's hitting rock bottom at this point. And it's this stupid cry baby's fault. All of it! Of course, none of this inflammatory monologue is making it to the surface. Instead, Leo sits there with a red face, glaring at Seiya like he's trying to kill him with just a look. His phone clutched in his hands with such a tight grip that he might even warp it's screen.

4

"What do you think? Should I make whimpering audio and sell it online? Breathe if yes, recite the bible if no! Oh wait, you can't talk!" Seiya laughed, which he should probably stop doing because if Leo got mad again he might try to... Well, he doesn't know where Seiya's room is anymore. Might try dumping more unnecessary work, though. "Wow Seiya, you're so cool and smart and tall and handsome, I wish I was more like you! I'm so sorry for everything I've ever done to you! You're such a sweet angel..." Seiya could be worse. He should be worse. Unfortunately, Leo's probably angry enough. After calming down, Seiya returns Leo's voice. He still has the widest shit eating grin on his face, though.

5

The more Seiya talks, the more the rage simmers in his gut. By the time his voice returns to him, it's reached boiling point. There's no point pretending to not care, Leo's already fucked that up. He takes in a deep breath and scowls at Seiya's dumbass smug looking face. The warmth in his face still lingers and it just pisses Leo off more. "I'm going to ruin you, Masamoto. You, your room, your stupid ass collectibles, and any granule of confidence that gives you the balls to use your stupid ass stigma on me."

Wouldn't it be like... super funny if it sounded like Leo was talking to himself? "Dude, literally no one else is here." The smelly guy over there doesn't count. "You're overreacting. Unless you care about the campus cats gossiping about you." He watches as the conductor cat walks by.

... Seiya did it again. He seriously fucking did it again. One of the few times Leo actually lets it slip that he's pissed, this smug himbo antagonizes him. Who gives a shit that they're the only ones in the cart? Seiya's already witnessed far more than Leo's even remotely fine with. ...Seiya taking his voice again is not anything Leo's above, either. He'd probably do it too if the roles were reversed. That doesn't change the fact that Leo hates it being dangled over him like he's supposed to plead this bag of dicks to give it back. ... If Seiya's going to corner him, two can play at that game. Leo sits there for a moment, taking in a deep breath and willing the tension and anger away from his body. Once he feels neutral enough all over again, Leo rises from his seat. The vice-captain walks on the floor briefly before one of his knees is sinking into the seat cushion between Seiya's legs. Leo grips his face forcefully in one hand, while the other rests on the back of the seat. He doesn't bother gauging his reaction before he's leaning in and deliberately allowing his breath to fan along Seiya's neck. A warning, just enough to make him uncomfortable.

6

3

"Wha-" Seiya could probably push him off right now. Leo doesn't have much physical power in this situation, so what is he trying to achieve? ... 'What the hell is this guy doing...' "'Ruin' me, huh? I don't think a virgin like you could do much to me." Seiya went back to speaking in his normal voice, this time he wants a verbal response.

5

Looks like he's still running his stupid fucking mouth. Leo doesn't give him a verbal response. What? So he can just take his voice back and dangle it over his head again? What an annoying fucking baby Seiya is. The vice-captain increases the pressure in his grip before tilting his chin at an angle. He lowers his mouth to Seiya's neck. This guy just got done fighting in a humid ass ring and probably is still coated with dried sweat. Fucking gross. Yet not gross enough to stop him from laving his tongue over an exposed part of his neck and closing his teeth around a large patch of skin. He sucks at the skin, harshly. Enough to leave a nasty bruise for a few days.

5

5

5

The conductor cat walks by again. It stops and looks at the two, giving them a judgemental up and down stare. It turns its head away and meows something sounding like a slur with two syllables under its breath.

5

6

"Ow! Hey-" Seiya puts his phone and sets his hands on Leo's shoulders, pushing him back. "I already got bit today, Asshole!" He touches the bruised area and pulls out his phone to see the damage done. He sighs and gives Leo an exasperated glare. "God, you're such a baby. You better still have some of that pink shit to treat this."

1

Leo grins maniacally and stands upright, pulling an extra green vial out of his pocket. He unscrews the lid and pours it onto the floor in front of Seiya. As he's shaking the last drop out, he speaks again. "Oops! Wow, my last one. Such a shame." The vice-captain tosses the bottle haphazardly. It lands somewhere on the carpeted floor of the cart and rolls underneath a seat.

3

"Are you fucking serious.." Seiya's going to have to make a stop by the infirmary soon, walking around with a bruise on his neck caused by Leo out of all people... ... He rubs his hand against the floor of the probably dirty train and raises his hand to Leo's forehead.

3

Leo catches Seiya's wrist in his hand and pulls out his phone. It seems he's not done with his tantrum. The vice-captain opens up his camera and takes several pictures of Seiya, making sure the mark on his neck is in full view. Its currently just bright red with a slight dapple of purple. It will get worse as the minutes go by. He backs the images up to his cloud drive and pockets his phone again. A self-satisfied smirk splits his face. "If you even try rubbing that shit on my face I'm going to make the rest of this train ride miserable for you."

4

"What? Are you gonna try to suck on my neck more?" Seiya yanked at Leo's sleeve, pulling him down to eye level because Seiya didn't feel like standing up. "Do you realize how childish you're being right now?"

Leo does not give a shit how he's coming off right now. Like Seiya said earlier, they're the only two here. Besides that smelly hog that's knocked out and the stupid cats. As much as Leo likes to torment others, it's not lost on him that he's not a good sport when the tables are turned on him. "There's not much I won't do right now to get under your skin." The vice-captain sticks his tongue out petulantly. "Hope that helps~♡!"

"Wow, did I really piss you off that much? Or are you looking for excuses to put your mouth on me?" Fuck it. Seiya rubs his dirty hand on Leo's forehead. Yeah, fuck you.

3

1

"..." ... ....... ............ Leo yanks his sleeve from Seiya's grip before reaching over to Smelly POS and ripping the stupid sunglasses off his head. Before Seiya can put two and two together, Leo holds down the wrist he has captured and slides the glasses onto his face. "Put your hands down, himbo."

Seiya puts his hands down.

4

Leo leans forward and rubs the shit on his forehead off onto Seiya's clothes, before taking a step back. He hopes it stains. As angry as he is, he manages to keep his voice level for the moment. It's not like Seiya's going anywhere. "Awh, you were probably hoping I'd leave another hickey on your neck. I don't see why else you would smear that shit on my face. Now you made me go and do this. If this smelly sack of shit wakes up and runs off now, it will be all on you." Leo will have to do a mask, maybe a facial peel later. So fucking gross. If he breaks out he's going to be a menace to everyone around him tomorrow. Especially Seiya. "You can speak, but no moving until I tell you to, kay?" (edited)

"...Are you seriously jeopardizing the mission just because you're mad at me? If he runs off, that's obviously gonna be your fault."

2

Leo puts a hand on his chin like he's thinking about it. He's not. But he nods after a moment. "Yup."

"...Dude."

2

2:28 PM

2

"I could just spin a story about how you let him get away. That would be like really funny. Maybe you'll get demerits, or even a suspension from missions or permits. Probation! That would like really suck." Leo shrugs. "Unless you got a better idea? I'm open to suggestions here."

Seiya imagines Leo doing a backflip off a cliff. “Yeah, hear me out on this super awesome idea I have. You take these damn sunglasses off me and put them back on the other guy so he doesn’t get away.”

2

"Nah, don't feel like it." With Seiya subservient for the moment, Leo feels his blood pressure go back to a normal level. This is so stupid. Fucking stupid he let this himbo visibly work him up. ... Whatever. Leo strolls back onto the seat and turns sideways, kicking his feet over Seiya's lap. He pulls out his phone and starts shitposting on his alt to cool off again.

3

3

“……I think the conductor cat called you a slur earlier.” Seiya was trying to move his fingers in a subtle way until he feels like he has enough control over his body to take off these damn glasses.

"Yeah?" Leo doesn't look up from his phone. "You a cat whisperer now?"

1

“Yup. What can I say, I just love pussy,” Seiya says sarcastically.

6

"Yeah... makes sense. Zero's a pussy." Leo glances out the window. They're about back to campus.

6

At some point Seiya is able to move his fingers. Quickly he takes off the sunglasses and puts them back on the smelly POS. He then shoves Leo feet off his lap and stands up to sit on the other side of the express, across from Leo.

6:05 PM

Not that it does much when they're already at campus. Dumbass.

6

Leo finishes texting up Hyde as the train comes to a stop. He doesn't even acknowledge Seiya breaking out of the artifact's effects. The cart door slides open and Leo jumps to his feet. "Hyde says bring him by the Chancellor's office." *Leo spares him a brief glance and flashes a smug grin, before strolling out the open door. "Good luck, buddy."

Seiya groans and picks up the guy again. "You should do a backflip off Tokyo Tower." Seiya throws the smell POS on his shoulder, positioning him awkwardly close to his neck as an attempt to cover the bruise. Seiya drags his feet as he leaves the express and imagines Leo doing a backflip of Tokyo Tower. It makes him feel a little better.

3

Somehow, Hale manages to get past all Darkwick security to drag Jo's unconscious body onto the train. If you check the logs and the cameras, he can be seen leaving the Galaxy Express with Jo (still unconscious) not long after near Tokyo Bay.

a vending machines shows up filled with different snacks and drinks then what you would find in the campus store. Prices are reasonable and all with the logo of three pine trees of Matsumori co. On them.

Mairo gets off the train her hair tied up in a some professional looking bun and dress pants and a blouse she has put an oversized cardigan over it from the usual matching blazer She wears annoying work heels that click on the pavement of the train platform, she undoes the bun and shakes her head. “Man I hate meetings.” she grumbles as she leaves heading towards Hotarubi.

chihiro arrives, holding bunny, cat, and dog in his arms, hes also got a small bouquet of camellias.

2

*He also arrives!!! He's trying to be incognito, which basically means wearing his uniform correctly and not pushing his hair back. It does not make him look all that different, really, given the piercings and whatnot. He looks at Chihiro and everything in his arms and tilts his head, suddenly a bit embarrassed. Damn. Damn.......* Hey. Sorry if 'm late.

chihiro beams, running up to him and holding out the flowers. "you're not!!! dont worry...!! .....i brought dog and bunny and cat so they can help pick....if thats okay...!" chihiro takes dog's paw and uses it to wave at tsubaki.

2

*He waves back immediately, and then looks a little embarrassed he did so. He scratches his cheek.* S'fine with me. They're cute. Like you. *He's going to die. Probably. He tilts his head to the side and scratches at his cheek for a second before taking the flowers, slowly reaching into his pocket to produce a small jewelery box. It's a bit bigger than a ring box, but smaller than a necklace.* .... Don't open that 'till you're back at your dorm.

chihiro blinks, a faint pink dusting his cheeks. .....he had planned on spending the night with tsubaki. now what. god of tsubaki my beloved..... "....s for me...?" chihiro takes the box and very carefully puts it in his bag. he also puts bunny in there. to. protect the box. just in case. u never know!!!

*Well.... Tsubaki doesn't know that plan. So maybe he has to open it in front of Tsubaki later. Hm? He nods at the question and blushes deeper.* S'not much. Sorry. Tried..... t'make somethin'. For you. *His first handmade gift failed, in his mind, but this one. Might be better. He HOPES the third will be even better. Man.....* You ready t'go?

YAAAAY I LOVE U GOD OF TSUBAKI chihiro smiles Even Brighter and takes tsubaki's hand. "...if you made it, im sure it perfect. and more than enough. just your existence is more than enough. ...m ready if youre ready!!!!!!!"

2

........ Thanks. *He should say more, but he's a little busy blushing so hard he sort of wants to let the Galaxy Express reclaim him. Instead of doing that, though, he gently squeezes Chihiro's hand and holds the flowers close to his chest with the other, nodding. He's fine. It's fine. He leads Chihiro onto the train. He is, miraculously, allowed on. Yay!*

1

once theyre on the train, chihiro promptly takes his spot Right On Tsubaki's Lap. theres nobody else on the train so....its fine...? right? " i want....a fuzzy puppy!!! a girl!!!!"

1

*Right. It's fine. Tsubaki doesn't mind it, at least, too busy being fascinated with the train and how it moves. This is honest to god his first time ever using the Galaxy Express. He's genuinely fascinated. He breaks his train of thought to look at Chihiro and nod.* 'Kay. Fuzzy 'nd a girl. *Nod nod. ....* What kinda dog is fuzzy?

chihiro looks at him with wide, sparkly eyes. "ummmmm like! a husky! or something! a girl husky!!!!!" chihiro wags his tail, opening his phone to show tsubaki a list of puppy names he came up with. .....they're all food names... bonbon, cookie, sprinkle, muffin....

1

*Bonbon...... Muffin.......* ..... Watermelon..... *He tilts his head to the side and squints at the phne. Leans closer to see it better. Maybe he should get glasses or something. .....* Husky's're cute. They get big though. S'that okay with you?

1

chihiro had already made the text size on his phone bigger (specifically for tsubaki) but it seems he needs to make it even bigger.... " ....she might get even bigger than me!!! maybe she can protect me when you're not around!!" ..he wishes tsubaki was always around though ):

*You do. He's really blind. Like, really blind. It's sad. So sad. He nods.* They're energetic. You gonna take 'er on walks? *He doesn't know anything about huskies. He is totally and fully guessing. 100%. He crinkles his nose.* 'm always gonna be around.

chihiro pauses. tsubaki's right. except. uhhhh.... he cant. ".............im not strong enough to go on walks. not yet. but im trying to get better for you like we agreed.... ....maybe you can help with that.....? just until im strong enough....."

*He tilts his head at the suggestion and nods twice, already assuming that would be the arrangement. He was going to offer it, if not. It would make a good workout in the morning, and give him an excuse to get out of the dorm more often than he currently does.* 'kay. Just tell me when she gets too big. S'fine. *He nods.* ..... You could come with us though......... wouldn't have t'be a long one......

chihiro wiggles around. hes excited!!! are they there yet??? "mmm...! it can be...motivation maybe. something i can work up to. for you. or. um. our little...... ..... ....family." chihiro immediately buries his face in tsubaki's neck and whines. ouughhhh hes so embarrassed!! save him!!

*Almost there. Probably. Tsubaki doesn't actually know, but he sort of thinks the train is slowing down. Probably? He blushes at the mention of family and brings one of his hands up to cover his face. It's an awkward move in their current format, but.... Man. He can't save Chihiro 'cause he's too busy dying too. Rest in peace...* -# ... family sounds nice.

chihiro nods, kisses tsubaki's neck a few times, and pulls away. hes. Definitely still dying. but he figures, like usual, tsubaki probably has it worse than him so he powers through it. "..yeah! and its ours. our family. and its loving and safe and special. cause its ours...!!!" the train comes to an ... Abrupt stop. so abrupt, in fact, that chihiro goes tumbling onto the floor. dog and cat go flying. aw man ): ouch.

3

*He shoots a glare to the conductor's seat and crouches to pick Chihiro up, trying to ignore how hot his face feels. A family, huh? Loving and safe and special........ he's never had one of those before. He wants one. He picks up Chihiro in one arm and Dog and Cat in the other, handing them over as he inspects for any injuries.* Train sucks. *He decides this very simply. Hurt Chihiro? It sucks.*

chihiro also wants one. he hopes to create one today. his own little family. he takes dog and cat, kisses each of them on the nose, and puts them back in his bag with bunny and tsubaki's box. " .....train definitely sucks....but!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! its time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" chihiro can. barely contain his excitement. he tugs and tuuuuugs at tsubaki's wrist. hurry!!!! hurry hurry!

*He's hurrying!! He can't help that he's slow. He's big and tough, the opposite of Chihiro. Maybe that's why they get a couple of looks as they walk. Tsubaki doesn't care though. He's too busy looking at the excitement on Chihiro's face and smiling with all the fondness in the world. Family. Safety. He's already got that, he thinks.*

chihiro skips along, holding tsubaki's hand and making sure to stare back at whoever looks for a little too long. after checking in with the staff and being shown where to go, chihiro drags tsubaki down the halls, stopping to say hello to each and every dog. some of them dont seem too fond of him, and that makes him a little sad, but he tries his best not to show it. chihiro has....never seen a dog before. like, ever. not even from far away. its a little overwhelming!! some of them are a little scary, and a lot of them smell bad. its also really, really loud and chihiro finds himself covering his ears a lot. fiiiiinally they reach the back!!! theres a door with a big sign that says Puppy Nursery. chihiro looks up at tsubaki and beams, pointing towards the door.

Maron is standing waiting for Kentin. He had to switch to his doggy form because he was just so excited and needed an outlet. He places the flowers down on the ground where he can see them ad begins running back and forth, howling and barking and wagging his tail. He kind of hopes he'll tire himself out so that he has less energy to be nervous..

1

‍♂️

6:07 PM

Milo walks up to Maron in his puppy form and squats in front of him, holding out a hand. A bright smile splits his features. "Hey, Maron."

Maron barks. Loud. His plan to wear himself out failed. He howls and howls and howls and presses his paw on Milo's hand, giving him a lick on the cheek before shaking and shifting back to his normal form. This time without ears or tail. "HI, K-MILO!!!! I got you something!!!" He spins over and picks up the tiny bouquet of flowers and walks up to Milo again, with an awkward smile on his face. His hands are shaking. Bad. He seems nervous, so nervous in fact that his tail pops right out and he whines. "'M trying to hide my ears and tail.. cuz we're going in public and stuff.. but it's been a little bit since I've done that!! And I feel weird!!! And these flowers are for you!!!!!" He says the last bit a bit too loudly as he holds the flowers straight out, eyes not meeting Milos.

Flowers...? Milo carefully takes them from Maron's hands, all the while smiling with an adoring look. He doesn't pay much mind to the shaking. If their roles were reversed, he might be too. "Thank you, Maron. I almost wonder if we should have met at the dorms. What if they wilt?"

1

Maron shakes his tail away and finally meets Milo's eyes. He fiddles with his hands as he speaks. "They won't!! They're from Chi's garden so they'll stay looking nice for a long time!!!! Chi said so!!" Maron nods and rocks back and forth, before coughing. He starts speaking again but his voice cracks a bit. Blushing bright red,but he continues. "Uh um, we should probably get going!!! Im excited to finally go to this arcade!!"

Maron is even more cute when he's nervous, Milo realizes. He wonders if there is something special about the flowers in Chi's garden. He doesn't ask, though. Hopefully, they will be just fine. "Sure, let's get on board then." Milo pulls up his Catsmo app on his phone and scans the QR code at the gate to board. "I heard that the HEY arcade is popular. It's not that long of a train ride, either."

As the two board, Maron takes a deep breath. He's gonna try to pretend his heart isn't thumping.. and that his tail isn't gonna pop out at any second. He smiles, maybe a little weirdly, at Milo as he takes in his look. He didn't realize it before, but he really did look pretty like this. But something just felt like it was missing. "I kinda miss your glasses right now.. they were cute. Now it's like your eyes are actually on me and I'm kind of freaking out!!" He brings his fingers to his mouth, covering it as if he didn't mean to say any of that. He was just blabbering now. Like an idiot. He should be cool!! And cute and bubbly!!! Like all the ukes in his books.. "Yeah, I'm so excited to go!!!! I used to wanna go in that place so bad!!!!! It's nice to be able to finally go.. especially with someone as cute as you!!" Marons hand comes up and touches the sleeve of Milo's shirt and tugs just a tiny bit. This is ok. This won't make his nose bleed, or ears pop out. He swallows as he looks up at Milo, biting his bottom lip. (edited)

The train cart is empty. It's not that often you run into other students considering the restrictions of permits. The compliments on his looks had been pretty frequent since he did the makeover for social media. Maron calling him cute means a lot more, though. Most people wouldn't like him as Ken, after all. Milo sits in one of the seats by the door and pats the spot next to him. He's not as panicky with Maron touching his sleeve. Good thing he took his medicine before hand. "Does eye contact bother you...? It does for me too, but it's easier when I dress normally. That's why I like those glasses."

Maron eyes the seat for a second before sitting down. He has the stupidest look on his face. He opens his mouth to speak. Then shuts it again. The usually chatty doggy is having trouble speaking. He clears his throat. "Um, it.. usually doesn't!! But.. its different with you maybe.. I don't know!!!" Maron gives Milo one more quick glance, meeting his eyes. He twiddles with his hair a little before reaching for Milo's sleeve again.. he really just plays with the fabric and picks at the stitching just a tiny bit as he talks. "Is that really your natural eye color? It's just.. really pretty!! But it's like.. too pretty!! Yknow?" (edited)

Milo shakes his head. "No. My natural eye color is green. These are just contact lenses." Ken put a lot of effort in looking completely different. He even got ear piercings for it. He's not good with pain so he cried a lot.

Maron nods and gives Milo a stupid smile. He gives Milo's eyes a better look now. "Show me your actual eye color one day?" Maron seems to have calmed down now, speaking less quickly. His hand drops from Milo's shirt and rests in his lap as he looks around the train. They should be getting there soon..

Milo nods, his lips curling into a sheepish smile. "Sure. When other people aren't around would be best. I'm worried that if I take my glasses off people will recognize me."

Maron nods with a big smile on his face. "I'll come over one of these days.. and you can take them off just for me!!" The stop announcement blares and Maron barks, rocking back and forth. Finally they were here!! (edited)
