Day 227 | action; | video
[It's dark, but it hardly makes a difference to a vampire. Only that the amount of traffic is significantly reduced. Which is fine. It's her turn to patrol sector zero, but she isn't alone today.

Sitting against a tree, she hums quietly, before singing a few lyrics to the song she'll have to perform, some time soon, in front of the dome. Not that she's looking forward to it, but she'll be glad when it's over. Nevertheless, it's easy enough to practice when everyone's asleep. Idly her hands stroke a small, orange, furry body nestled within her lap.]

Gathering stars, into my arms
I build up a fragile castle of sand
And utter a tiny pray for all the ones I love

[She returns back to humming, and stretching wide, yawns. She needs to do something to stay awake. Nails brush against the device, and after a moment it flickers on. The light of the screen is dim, but in the screen a couple blue and purple butterflies flutter around her. She pays them little attention, though. Instead, she lifts a small vampire bunny up, and forces one of his little legs to wave to the screen.]

Busa-kun is bored, so we were wondering if anyone's still up. Everyone who hasn't met him yet, for whatever the reason, say hi to Busa.

[She doesn't know what to say for a moment. Is she jealous? The idea of another her appearing is vexing. If it was a human version of her...what then? Likely, she'd feel more sympathy for her much more naive, self.

It's not a lie, though she can't help but to wonder if he'd prefer that Yuuki... the Yuuki from her past, over the current, vampire Yuuki. But he... says he doesn't care what Yuuki she is. It's just her that he cares about. It's ironic, somehow, that... whether it was due to her life with Zero or not, but she had, in a sense, compartmentalized herself, too. The 'monster' her verses the innocent her of the past, that had been so ignorant. For that reason it had taken her a long time to merely accept herself and allow the use of her fangs at all.

An arm lifting, she buries her face in one of her hands.]

I just... [Just what?] I'm sorry. I know that was stupid.

[Zero sighs, leaning down to grasp one of her hands and gently pulls her to her feet. He knows he was likely a little harsh on her. He understands her thoughts but at the same time it's just so clear to him now. But it had happened so quickly for him that she still was trying to get her bearings and grasp the change. Once she's on her feet, another small tug brings her into his arms. Cheek against the top of her head as his lips press a gentle kiss against her temple, his arms embrace her body.]

I think if that Yuuki were to suddenly return...she would freak and wonder what was wrong with us. She definitely would be disbelieving and in denial about it all.

Probably call us fakes.

	[Face buried into his chest, his words manage to draw a faint laugh. He knows her too well, all right. Fingers reach up and curl into his shirt, and she murmurs.] Yeah... I'd wonder what sort of poor act they we were putting on. [They've changed a lot, haven't they.] I don't mind the current us, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Probably better than she knows herself. Luckily that goes both directions, which helps in these sort of situations when others just wouldn't understand exactly what is going on--they always seem to understand completely what the other is thinking and why.]

I'd hope not. It's taken a lot to get us here.

[He smiles against her hair, tightening his embrace.]

I do think 'that' you would handle it better than--something like the 15 year old you. She'd probably be horrified and grossed out.

[An exhaled sigh of amusement. She shakes her head.]

It's not that I would have been grossed out.

[The idea of them as anything more than good friends-- family, even-- had never really crossed her mind until that time when Zero had almost kissed her, really. But had she been grossed out?

No... just surprised.]

I would have been confused. Because I was sure that Zero couldn't possibly hold a single romantic thought about me. It never crossed my mind that you could have thought otherwise.

[One of his hands made its way to the back of her head to wind into her hair. Pulling his cheek away from it's resting place, he looks down into her face.

Where she'd never imagined he would feel like this toward her, he'd never dreamed that she'd ever know or return his feelings.

He just looks at her for a few seconds before letting his forehead drop against hers. There is a smile on his face and his eyes are closed. Contentment.

Nothing is said, he just stays like this. There is nowhere he'd rather be.]

[It's her who will have to ruin the moment. Although she finds it difficult to pull away when she's so comfortable like this. Her smile fades, a touch, gaze dropping below.]

I am... upset. [Her head shakes lightly against his] Not at Zero. Not really...

[It's just not a cheerful topic.]

I never imagined that person would...get the opportunity to hurt someone again.

	[Why are you trying to ruin the mood? He knew they weren't done with the conversation but he was at least enjoying himself for a moment.] I know. His appearance...created a lot of chaos for everyone here at the time. It shouldn't have happened and we all did what we could to prevent him from hurting anyone else.

	[He didn't want to tell her, but he can't keep it from her if asked point blank like that.] Aidou tried to be a hero...he was fine in the end though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[At the name she swallows thickly. Aidou. Her uncle had tried to harm Aidou... another dear person to her. Fists tighten again, before she forces herself to release them with a breathe.] Aidou-senpai... has a knack for getting into trouble. [She's one to talk (especially when half the time he's in trouble because of her)] I'm relieved that he was all right... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He's obviously a little uncomfortable, not because of anything he did back then. Just the memories of the time and not wanting to talk about it. He will though if she has questions.]

Rido wasn't here long. Less than a couple of weeks at the beginning of our stay. We weren't exactly talking at the time much and there were several others from our world here, so...

	I wonder if they'll all return some day, too... [A glance up to him. It must be strange, that he can remember that entire time, when she can't. In way, maybe it's justice. She supplies a small smile.] Well, we'll deal with that if and when the time comes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He hopes not. At least not some people that have been here. Yes, he's still insecure about this fragile relationship they've began. As quickly as it began it could all be stripped away.] It's always possible. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Like with mother and father...? [A glance at him out of the corner of her eye. She does know about them. About the fact that they were here. She can remember their scent, even within that old, abandoned house in the previous dome.] What did you... think of them, Zero...? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[He looks up in surprise. He'd left out their names only because they hadn't come to mind immediately. The others were in and out of his life and impacted him in some way--these two had been strangers before their arrival.]

Your father wasn't here for very long and I didn't get to know him very well. He kept to himself mostly. [Her parents were here at a time where he wasn't exactly--open to the idea of getting to know them.]

Your mother--[Oh. What to say about her mother? Juri Kuran had been a force of her own, that's for sure. Never backing down from him. Seeking him out just to get a reaction.] Your mother...[He actually gives a chuckle, looking at her for the first time in a new light in his memories.] Drove me insane. Every single thing you do that to push my buttons--multiply it by ten, remove all sense of guilt and insecurity and replace it with amusement. That's your mother.

You're just like her. She drove me crazy at the time, but looking back...the more you were around her the more you got your 'spark' back that had seemed to fade during that year.

She was good for you...
