School Trip, Day One. (Bus Ride, Eating Somewhere and Onsen)
Who: EVERYONE (npcs welcome)
What: Bus Ride, Eating, Onsen, Night 1 at hotel.
Where: ON A BUS
When: Late May
Why: We like trips.

Aomori-sensei was clearly not in the best of moods. He hadn't been for a while. Still, there was an air of excitement about the students who were assembling to get on the buses as they chose thier seat partners and talked. It wasn't every day that they went on a school trip. Very few of them had been paying much attention in the half-day of lessons before. Even Ishino-sensei looked the happiest she'd been since the incident.

She went through the lines of pupils, checking thier permission forms, while Aomori and Banno-sensei herded them into the coaches.

"Men 'at way, Girls t'other way!" Banno shouted, pointing in both directions at once and then grabbing a handfull of sesame seeds and chewing on them. He didn't quite finish chewing before staring talking again.

"If we catch even one of you in the wrong bath, we all go straight back!" He shouted through a mouthful of half-chewed seeds. He paused to thing, chewing and swallowing. "...without letting you get dressed again first."

The sight of the hot springs brought an relieved sigh from Kou's lips. He'd stopped in the middle of the street, unaccompanied and holding a bag containing his toiletries and bath linen. There was nothing more relaxing than hot water and private surroundings. He could forget about the world here.

For this moment he gazed in wonder and silence, and when passed by his schoolmates realised he was still outside - and promptly went in. The humid air cleared his nose and he listened to Banno's orders.

A respectful tone came into his voice, "Yes."

He went into the men's bath after that, and found he was the first one there. Perhaps he could come when everyone had gone.

Yuuto liked hot springs, though his visits there were by few and far apart from each other. I twas relaxing when it wasn't crowded, sometimes you could get a decent conversation if you were lucky, and most importantly, you had an excuse to wear a yukata afterward. Not that he normally needed one in the first place; but a school trip was a school trip.

He nodded at Banno, despite that Yuuto was already making bets with himself someone was going to try peeking into the girls' side if there was a chance to do so. It would be interesting to watch if it happened, to say the least.

He was however, surprised to see that apart from himself who had just went in, the men's bath only ahd one other person. "Guess they're taking their time," he said, mostly to himself.

Kanaye loved hot springs. Even if you ignore the obvious, it was relaxing and an excellent way to get rid of stress. Chuckling at Banno's threat, which he didn't find much of a threat of all, he walked into the changing room.

Putting down his stuff, he was surprised to find that there weren't many people in yet. Only him, Tanaka, and Kou. Odd.

Walking into the onsen, he chuckled at Yuuto's line. "Apparently. Odd how that works out. Hey, Kou-kun!" He said as he sat in the water, as close to the girl's side as he could get.

	Kou's face was expressionless. He'd known classmates would arrive since it wasn't like he'd come in his free time. Still, he wished he'd been on his own a little longer. It wasn't nearly as relaxing with other people. Plus they were, well... He crossed his legs and sunk deeper into the water. Only his head was above the surface. "Hello."

Oh, there was the classmate. Satou Kanaye, if he was remembering correctly. The one he'd been meaning to talk to because he seemed interesting; Yuuto just hadn't really found a good opportunity to do so. Well, better late than never, he supposed.

Yuuto stepped into the water, and his interest piqued at the mention of Kou. Huh. Maybe...yeah, it probably wouldn't hurt to ask. "Kou as in Kouchisei?"

	Kou sank deeper into the water until his chin was below the surface. He could feel the warmth on his lips. "I'm assuming you're going to do the courtesy of giving me your name?" he said, and in that affirming his identity. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Norio paused at the entrance to the onsen. He hated to disappoint people, but this was a place where he would have to draw the line. If he went into either of the baths, his secret would be completely thrown out into the open. If the girls saw him naked, they'd realize that he was male, and if the boys saw him even come near their bath... well...

He opted to stand outside the building, several paces away from Mr. Banno.

	"You know staying out here isn't going to get you any points Norio-san." Gendou commented coming up behind the girl and put a hand on her shoulder. "Don't tell me that Hot springs bother you. You do know that there are some private ones towards the back if you're too shy to let the other girls see you." He didn't want anyone to miss out on this oppertunity.

He looked Gendou in the eyes, not shyly at all.

"I'm a little self-conscious, to tell the truth. I don't like going to hot springs, or bathhouses, or pools, or even the beach..." He touched his chest. "I'm a little... flat. I don't need everyone else telling me, too."

Turning away from the student council president, he mumbled. "And I wouldn't want to be there if any boys decided to try spying on us..."

"Well I see no reason to be, you're an attractive young woman, but you know you could just put a towel around that way no one would spy on you," he paused and glanced at her chest. "So? Flat chests are, in my opinion, a lot better then large breasts. They tend to be to...how do I put this delicately, seem a bit overly round."

Gendou shrugged, "I would hate for you to miss out on the chance to experince some of this Norio-chan, but if you don't want to I can't force you."

He felt incredibly awkward, talking like this with an upperclassman. I think I'd need four pages to cover just how much is wrong with this situation. It also puzzled him that Gendou was in favor of flat-chested girls.

"So, what. Are you saying that to be nice, are or you saying that because you've got some weird pettanko fetish?" Norio inwardly sighed. He always ended up getting defensive when conversations went this way.

"I'll sneak in the back or something for these private baths, I guess... but if they charge me extra, it's coming out of your pockets, Retsu-sempai!" He started to walk into the bathhouse building.

Gendou chuckled some and smirked to her, "No, honestly not, but I do have a damsel in distress fetish, if you would. "And honestly flat chests are more real then some of the more...ah...how can I put this delicately, enflateables that are around here. But that's just my preference. I'm sure the other men here like them quiet well, though it gets to be annoying."

He shook his head and grinned, "No need to sneak in the back, they're free to use with the hotel guests, you just have to sign in and hang the sign on it saying occupied."

Kozue scooted away from the spray of sesame seeds as fast as she could without making her disgust obvious - ew ew ew ew he chewed on those ew ew ew ew how can he be talking now ewwwwww - and retreated behind the curtain of the women's side: Banno and his half-chewed food couldn't follow her there.

Once in the women's dressing room, she promptly began sorting stuff - her towel bag onto a shelf, her toiletries out, hair-care products and all that - and without much hesitation, she started disrobing. It didn't really bother her that she was among the first girls in - prime pick of spots, is what she'd get.

"We won't Banno-sensei," Misaki said trying to calm the teacher down some and avoiding the spray of Sesame seeds. She wondered if he had more of those hidden up his sleeves or something. Walking quickly into the dressing area, Misaki looked around. No one was in there, or so she thougth at first, until she noticed Kozue's clothing and realized the smaller girl had come in first. Misaki blushed some and wondered if her body was okay. She had always been a pinch embaressed by it and wrapped a towel around just to be on the safe side.

Walking out she was assulted by the heat and steam, and wiped the sweat from her brow. My hair will get all poofy if I'm not careful here she thougth and quickly pulled it up into a bun. Searching through the steam she saw Kozue and got in. "Nice night for a soak huh?"

Luckily for her, Toshimi was far enough away from the teacher to avoid the sesame seeds. She just hoped that the people who were hit by them would have the decency to wash them off before coming into the water. After removing her clothes and placing all her things where they belonged, she headed for the hot spring. She wondered vaguely if she was really close enough to any of her classmates to make it all right to go to a hot spring with them, but shrugged it off. In a public bath, it was inevitable for people to see you naked whether or not you knew them well...but back home, she'd only gone to the onsen with family or close friends before.

Toshi kept her towel around herself as she approached, but set it aside before entering the water. She let out a contented "Ah..." as she found a spot. The hot water was especially relaxing tonight.

There were a couple of other girls in the bath. Toshimi politely greeted, "Good evening, Kondo-san, Aoi-san," but didn't engage them in any further conversation. The onsen was supposed to be quiet and peaceful, after all.

Kozue had stripped quickly, unashamed (what did she have to be ashamed of, after all?), and not really thinking about it. She'd rinsed off quickly, too; after her hair was wet, she piled it on top of her head, pinning it up so it wouldn't get into the hot spring, and then she sunk in, setting her small towel aside as well.

"It is a nice evening - the water feels great," she said, the second half more a sigh than anything else as she settled in and leaned back.

Kiriko had followed her busmate to the onsen in silence, but deliberately lagged behind in the changeroom. Kozue didn't seem to have a problem with anybody seeing her, but since there were only a handful of people in the changeroom anyway, it just seemed polite to hang back so she could pass through the showers alone. A few minutes later, Kiriko was up to her nose in bathwater.

"Do we get any free time tonight?" she asked no one in particular, poking her head a little further out of the water.

Nighttime Wanderings

apathyisboring
2009-07-24 07:43 am UTC (link)

Kiriko missed the steam almost the moment she stepped out of the baths, a small towel still draped over her drying hair. Late night swims were most relaxing - apparently, not too many other people thought so, though. The place was pretty much deserted. She retied the sash on her yukata a little tighter, yawned and started off towards the corridor that led to her room, when she spotted someone across the hall coming from the opposite direction. There was still a bit of distance between them, but his height, hair and predisposition for wandering about at night gave Reizo away. She eyed him suspiciously.

"What are you doing?"

Reizo’s mood and step came to a screeching halt when Kiriko popped out from around a corner. The combination of the towel he had draped around over one of his broad shoulders, shampoo in hand, thin yukata and direction he was heading really should have told her all she needed to know. Either her smarts were limited to books or-- yeah, it was the latter. She was suspicious of him. He had no reputation for peeping, or even being interested in any girls from school!

He matched her suspicion with his own, hmphing quietly and patting down the wrinkles of the towel hanging across his shoulder. He positioned himself so no errant gust of wind could catch his robe’s bottom and embarrass him. The length of the thing made it damned near impossible, but he wasn’t taking any chances thanks to his dungeon experiences.

"Like you're skulking."

She raised her eyebrows and looked him over, as if checking to see if his story checked out. Well, he was carrying shampoo, but why didn't he just go during the day? She supposed she could pose the same question about herself, but she'd already visited then and she was very clearly not a suspicious character.

Kiriko narrowed her eyes. What was his angle, then? Sneaking into the girl's bath? Much more of a Kanaye move. Maybe checking the changerooms for anything anybody had forgotten? No point in that, he could have just made his classmates "forget" anything he wanted during the day. Then...

"Don't tell me you're too bashful to go in with other people!"

He frowned at her, cocking his head to the side as she began scrutinizing him. Obviously checking out the damned story. What was she, the hall monitor or something? He shifted weight uncomfortable from slipper to slipper, sighing and wondering just what god he’d pissed off to have the only relaxing part of this trip, thus far, ruined for him by running into Ikeda-bitch.

“Bashful? You wish. I just..” He trailed off, trying to think of some good excuse not to have gone in today. The truth was always simplest with Ikeda, but he was already trusting a few people with the secret, mostly due to his own stupidity and, though he wouldn’t admit it to himself, a desire to show off the tattoo. “Don’t want to risk any girl peeping about the rumors.” He finally finished.

It made some sense, right? After the Toru dungeon incident, anyone would be a little freaked out over what he had thought were only harmless (and sort of awesome) rumors.

Was that really it? It couldn't be. Most boys would like that kind of rumour, she figured. Besides, the first person they'd caught trying to spy had already been sent home (after a sound thrashing from his girlfriend), and it must be a lot harder to spy when the place was full.

"Why would there be girls in the boys bath?" she asked, quirking a brow. She pulled her hair out of the towel and draped it over one arm instead, shaking her hair out over her shoulders. A smile flickered over her face, one that wasn't entirely pleasant.

"I can watch the door if you're so worried about it," she teased.

After the baths Misaki had gone to her room and put on her nightgown, thrown on her robe and tried to lay down. Yet she was still unnerved by everything. Her eye drifted to the bruised wrist and she lifted it up to stare at it. Running a finger gingerly over it she winced. Tom...scared her, it was hard to understand but he scared her the same way her older sister did. She felt lost, like a child around him, and that didn't help instill good things in her heart about him.

Though he'd given her a worried look when he had found them in the shop she still found it strange that he even grabbed her like that. Sighing some, she thought about the fact that Maeko was being more and more protective of her, threatening him with a book no less. It wasn't that she wasn't grateful, it was just the fact that she didn't want Maeko to get into trouble becuase of her. Now this had happened, and Kiriko had seen it, and no doubt knew she was fabricating about the truth wasn't going to help matters. Kiriko would figure it out soon enough, if Maeko had not already told her, which would mean both of them would be on her about who she talked with and hung around with.

Covering her eyes Misaki sighed. It wasn't fair, yes she knew she was weaker then the others but that didn't mean that she had to be protected all the time, she could do things on her own. It made her feel useless, like she was just there as a window dressing. Glancing out the window of the room she sat up and looked at the clouds. It was a peaceful night and she felt like wandering. Heading out the door of the room, trying not to bother her roommate, Misaki pulled out the small drawing pad and a pencil from her bag, then headed out of the room shutting the door behind her.

The corridors were quiet, and she kept her eye out, looking around for anyone that was about. Tip toeing silently she made her way down to one of the halls that had a lead out to a large balcony. Pushing the door open she stepped out on to the balcony and pulled out her drawing tools. Staring up at the night sky she started to draw it as a woman dressed in a long black flowing robe and sat down to concentrate, unaware of what was happening not to far from where she was standing.
