25th Magic Bullet

[drank_the_milk]

[Action; Annie's Flowers]

[It's Mother's Day once again.  Yuna knows there's some fun to be had from last year's shenanigans, but this is also a pretty important day for her otherwise.  First things first - she needs to preserve the memory of her own mom, who she lost far too early in her life.  So early this morning into the afternoon, she can be found looking around the flower shop for a nice bouquet to set up at home.]

[Action; 2237 Stevens Road]

[Family members may notice that today, Yuna's slightly quieter than usual, though still generally maintaining good cheer.  In the corner of the living room, she's got a family picture in a frame sitting on top of a small table.  It looks like a photo of what appears to be a younger Yuna standing between a woman with a very strong resemblance and a smiling man with glasses and some beard stubble.  There are white irises in two vases on either side of the picture.  She couldn't find any incense, so instead there's just a candle burning there.  During part of the afternoon, Yuna can be found kneeling in front of this display and praying.]

[Action; outside 2237 Stevens; afternoon until sundown]

[All right, so now it's time for a bit of trolling.  She knows her mother would want her to remember her, but not to stand around moping about it all day.  And the weather is getting nice and warm as summer approaches, so Yuna figures it's as good a time as any to bust out the lawn chairs and her swimsuit and get some sun.  Once she's all set up with a nice folding beach chair, a pair of sunglasses, a rather flattering orange bikini, and what's left of the tube of Nuru Nuru X skin lotion she regained before, she sets about the task of relaxing and waiting for some guys to happen by to wait on her hand and foot.  A girl needs to pamper herself every so often, after all.]

Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh, this is the life~!  If only I had someone to fix me a cool glass of lemonade, help me rub on some of this lotion, and maybe give me a nice foot massage!  That would definitely make this day totally perfect.

[Said loud enough for any hapless Mayfield males passing by to hear.  Come at her, bros.]

Action - Afternoon

[stupidsexydate]

[Like a invisible cord snapping at his neck, Date was pulled by an irresistible force to obey. He held up a hand in greeting as he set down his milk can full of coins.]

Yo! Need someone to fix you a drink, miss?

[drank_the_milk]

Oh, hey, just in time! Yeah, I was thinking some ice cold lemonade would really hit the spot right about now.

[stupidsexydate]

Not a problem. Can I borrow your kitchen so I can get some made up? [Nope, nothing wrong with this picture.]

[drank_the_milk]

Sure thing. Lemons are in the fridge, sugar's in the cabinet above the stove. Don't make a mess in there, okay?

[Yuyuko doesn't really remember Yuna from the caper campaign but she seems to be interested in the flowers enough to catch her attention]

Good morning. We've been having nice weather lately, haven't we?

Is there something in particular you're looking for?

[drank_the_milk]

Mmm... maybe some white irises?

[Pretty standard funeral/cemetary flower, really. Yuna's not keeping much of a secret here.]

[ex_bloomnobly385]

Ah, say no more.

[It isn't long before she returns with a small bunch of white irises]

Might I recommend some white chrysanthemums as well?

[adventurerextraordinaire]

[Cade is walking by, doing other errands, when he hears Yuna's call. In a split, he jumps of the fence and poses in front of her.]

"Fear not, for CADE MASTERS, MASSEUSE EXTRAORDINAIRE, is at your service, miss!"

[drank_the_milk]

[Yuna lifts her sunglasses to blink at this guy before grinning and clapping.]

That was pretty awesome!

[adventurerextraordinaire]

"Thank you, but not as awesome as you!"

[Cade is over to her in a flash and down on one knee, smiling at her like an idiot with his perfect straight white teeth. (Feel free to enjoy his incredible handsomeness all you want while he's here).]

"Did I hear you say you needed someone to oil and massage you? I'll have you know, that none in Mayfield have fingers as strong and nimble as CADE MASTERS!"

[protectshisclass]

[...Yuna why.]

Ah, do you need anything else?

[drank_the_milk]

[She's Class 3-A, this is what they do.]

Negi-sensei! Did you come to spoil me today too?

[protectshisclass]

Actually, I just came by to check on you.

[But now that he's here, spoiling her sounds like a good idea.]

[Action; 2237 Stevens Road]

[captainofthe10th]

That is your mother, is it not? [ Loken just looksd own at Yuna. ]

[drank_the_milk]

[Yuna looks up when she's done paying respects.]

Yeah, that's her. Don't I look like her?

[She gives a proud grin. The resemblance really is something.]

[greyerrant]

Yes. You are both quite lovely.

[ He smiles back down at her. Yuna always was the easiest of his false family to deal with, and in many ways the one he had the most affection for. ]

[ukelelenogood]

[Haruko was going to come in banging a small drum that she has with her. It's Mother's Day, goddammit, and now that she is a "mother" she quite clearly has every right to be exhibitionist like in her behavior about it.

When she notices how solemn it is, she stops. For once, at least, she seems to actually bother to not be a jackass and ruin the moment.

She pauses, puts the drum down, and comes over to sit by Yuna. She doesn't pray, but she at least bows her head.]

[drank_the_milk]

[Yuna of course hears the drum, since it'd be hard not to. Once the noise stops, she opens one eye and glances over at Haruko briefly before smiling and finishing her prayer.]

Thanks.

[ukelelenogood]

Eh, I haven't worked with a drum for a while anyway.






Ya alright kid?

[queen_of_swords]

[Olivier notices her looking around.]

Did you have something specific in mind?

[drank_the_milk]

I think maybe something in white?

[queen_of_swords]

Did you want a bouquet or a single flower?

action; afternoon

[vespastruck]

[Beside her on the lawn, Naota is sitting with a large paper fan which he is waving at Yuna. He is a devoted fan-boy whose job is fanning her.


But now he's beginning to nod off and fall asleep.]

[drank_the_milk]

Huh? The breeze stopped...

[Still laying there with her sunglasses on.]

[vespastruck]

[Head tipped back against his chair, Naota is snoring softly and most likely drooling onto his chin.]
