Action | | Open to all
[Happy White Day, Miracle Country! It seems that this year, Miracle Country hasn't been very celebratory - having skipped Valentine's Day entirely - but perhaps White Day is a chance to make up for that?

Not so much. As a means to "celebrate", the world's magic is doing an anti-Valentine's event. Suddenly, affection is not only frowned upon, but actively discouraged. Couples today will find all kinds of obstacles interrupting any attempts to be romantic with friends, family, and lovers.

Holding hands? Suddenly there's a tree root to trip you. Going in for a kiss? Suddenly there's an invisible wall blocking you from your partner. Trying to cuddle? Water balloons are getting tossed at your head, or a bucket of very cold ice water. Trying to... get intimate? Well, enjoy that incredibly loud and annoying alarm bell that's suddenly ringing and won't stop until you stop, or perhaps that feeling that your pillow is full of rose thorns...

All kinds of things can happen (and feel free to make up your own): water balloons, tree roots, even quicksand in places! Sudden gusts of wind, sudden rain showers, birds landing on your head and pecking until you stop, sudden patch of ice causing you to slip...

But maybe if you hide away, it'll be alright. It seems that Kiseki isn't always looking to disturb the couples, and those that find interesting hiding spots and solutions might be able to have a moment or two with their sweetheart. Hide away, and maybe it'll stop...

Except, take heart couples, because White Day isn't all for naught: as the evening approaches, characters will fell compelled to go to the ballroom where everything is set up for Kiseki's very own Bitter Ball, complete with all the party decorations! And an abundance of alcohol.

It's almost as if Miracle Country wants you to get romantic, though, despite the mixed messages: there's plenty to eat and drink, there's music playing with a big open dance floor, and lots of pretty decorations for White Day. But help the poor couples who decide to show up together, because as soon as they step inside, Miracle Country is forcing them to opposite sides of the room.]

	[Won't not can't. There is a difference.] I highly doubt I've ever remotely broken anyone's heart. [He just looks down at his foot quick.] Two pounds is hardly enough weight to break a foot. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You don't think so...? [ Just a sad smile as she glances up, meeting his own gaze. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

No, not like that. What they perceived me to be and who I am are two different things. It isn't like they even knew me.

[He just shrugs. It wasn't like there were many of them.]

It's the illusion they were interested in, not me. Once that was shattered they would move on without a thought.

[Because the concept of someone actually loving him is foreign and unheard of. He's not worthy of that sort of thought.]

Oh.

[Her head is swirling a bit, and it doesn't help with all the spinning, but her feet pause. Why does that bother her so much. Why are his words bothering her so much?

Warmth suddenly alerts her to the presence of a couple of tears that slide down her cheeks. AH-]

I... I forgot my drink! Where did I put it again?

[Her hands slip from his and she turns around. Distance. For just a little bit. Suddenly she can't stop the tears from rolling down her face.]

	[He honestly has no idea why she has such a sudden reaction. Granted, what he said was pretty harsh but it had nothing to do with her but the slight scent of salt mixed in the air made it perfectly clear it upset her.] What? [His hand reaches out to grab her before she slipped away, fingers grasping her elbow.] I don't think you need another drink. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Stupid Zero. Stupid, stupid Zero...

When his grip upon her doesn't lessen after a tug, she turns around- and is surprised when her own hand connects with his cheek. After a moment of shock, however, her jaw clenches as the tears run freely down her cheeks.]

Stupid!

[Is that what he truly thinks!?]

No one in the universe can just 'move on without a thought'! That kind of a thing is impossible! Of course I couldn't! Stop thinking so little about yourself!

[The unexpected strike burns his cheek hotly as he drops her arm in surprise. The hand lifts to his face in shock as he rubs the painful sting that remains. Confusion mars his expression, as he looks at her, jaw opening and closing as if to bring life back to his injured cheek.

'She couldn't move on?'
'Stop thinking so little about myself?'

Did she really think...?]

That's not the same. Not the same at all.

[He knows that better than anyone.]

I wasn't talking about that.

[Even if that's exactly what he was trying to do...]

[It doesn't matter because that's what he feels. She's sure it's what he must be thinking. Jaw trembling, she turns back around.]

I'm going home.

[Out of his reach before he can grab her arm again.]

A-And I'm not not thinking about it! [Or something. She doesn't even know what she means now, except that she's worked up. She's at the door in seconds, but it wont open. Embarrassed and frustrated because her big exit isn't working, instead she marches toward the ladies room.

Because at least she wont be followed in there.]

[He gaze just follows her, not sure what to say in defense. Not that she was giving him an opportunity to do so. She makes her way from the door to the bathroom and disappears before Zero moves from his place on the dance floor.

Hand dragging through his silver fringe, he sighs as he puts his back up against the wall. The same wall he'd started out on before deciding that going to the dance floor was a good idea. It wasn't. He was still shell-shocked and didn't understand what had upset Yuuki so much. That alone was something surprising because he normally had a pretty good insight into her motivations and reasoning.

Which only served to confuse him more about everything.]
