WHO: Toki, Adelaide, Valvatorez, Orihime, Jolyne, Jail + open
WHERE: various locations
WHEN: May
WHAT: Vampires! Apologies! Awkwardness! Mentoring! Dogs? Tea! Exploration!
WARNINGS: self-harm and gore mentions likely, potential RNG seizure visions, FEELS
CLOSED PROMPTS:
a; {Adelaide} - early May, edge of the woods on campus
[Toki hadn't been exactly avoiding Adelaide after the incident, but it seems that way. He had so many things going on the following weeks; worrying over Maverick's contract, confronting Wist about Kano's state of existence, continuing dreams and visions that were taking their toll on his mental state. Adelaide, and confronting what happened between them, had somehow been pushed to the back of it all. Now, he wonders if it's too late to have the discussion, too late to tell her he doesn't hate her, and never could.
He sent a text to Adelaide only this morning, a time and a place to meet. Toki's not sure if she'll show up at all. He doesn't know how she feels, and he should. He should have talked to her earlier. He sits on a fallen log near the edge of the woods. A quiet place that he doesn't particularly get comfort from, but he thinks Adelaide will. No one around to hear them. He'd chosen later in the evening; it's still light enough to see everything, but he doesn't know how the sunlight affects her; if it hurts to be outside during the day and she just doesn't show it.]
b; {Valvatorez} - early May, Val's office
[He's waited a while to apologize. It's not that he's afraid of Valvatorez per se, because Ekkehardt was probably right. It was all in the past, everything Toki saw. Yet, he's still apprehensive as he approaches the professor's office. He apologies a lot, but he's never been particularly good or dignified at it; usually devolving into tears early on, or not quite understanding why he's apologizing beyond making someone upset somehow. Right now, he does know. He knows what he did was wrong, and an overreaction, but in the moment he did it, it seemed the only option and very logical. Toki knocks on the door softly, or softly for him anyway.]
Professor Valvatorez?
c; {Orihime and/or Jolyne} - whenever in May, Aube 405
[Toki hasn't seen Orihime since the end of February. He hasn't contacted her at all, and she hasn't reached out to him either. Or, if she has, he doesn't know about it. He did go through four new phones in the last two months, and though he's still on the network with an updated number, Orihime could have assumed her unanswered messages were him ignoring her. He's on some kind of reconciliation streak at the moment, not formally or for any reason; things just happened that way. So, today, he's going to talk to her.
The last time he saw her was in the first floor common room in Aube. It was late at night, maybe early in the morning. He'd had a vision about her. One where she died, where she was a rotting corpse and her spirit had been claimed by a snake-man of sorts. A snake-man that, for some reason, Orihime thought represented her brother. Of course, Toki doesn't know what happened with that. He knows she's alive, but that's it really. Sometimes he feels like everything would be less awkward, less confusing, if people would clue him in a bit more on things. He understands why they don't; like Orihime hadn't. He's too easily disturbed and frightened and panicked and he'll just get in the way if he knows.
She probably doesn't want to see him, and that's okay. He's prepared for that outcome. He almost texted her, fingers hovering over her robot network icon, but what would he say? A simple "how are you?" after two months of silence? He couldn't do that, though maybe he should have. He was prepared and calm and everything when he knocked on the door of Aube 101, only to be met by some guy he'd talked to once when the kids were hanging around. Orihime had changed rooms. Now, he's here in front of 405. In this hallway where he'd been several times on his way to visit Adelaide and the fish. He had no idea Orihime was right there.
Toki hesitates before knocking. He wants to make this easy for her if she just doesn't want to speak to him again. Okay. He's ready. He knocks loudly and rapidly on the door, intent on appearing cheerful and happy no matter what happens.]
d; {Jail} - beginning late April, Jail's office
-continuation from here-
[Toki was taking a shower when the text arrived, and he never looked at it until someone else texted him several hours later. The ghost line sends him off on thought tangents regarding if there are any ghost students at Daybreak he doesn't know about, then onto whether or not he's already dead and a ghost himself, and it's another several hours before he remembers to write down the appointment time.
The next day, when he checks his scrawled down reminder, he reads it as 8PM. At 3:30, when he looks the map for where her office is, he sees the actual meeting time. It's almost 4:00 before he shows up to knock on the door.]
OPEN PROMPTS:
e; Network
i am seeking recommendations!
give me your choices for service animals that are NOT dogs!
small cute dogs are POSSIBLE or maybe a dalmatian,
BUT i have preference for non-dogs!
f; Cafe de la Lune
[Toki has a table by himself near the front door. His usual cafe companion Kuroko is nowhere in sight. He's also switched from coffee to tea. He examines the contents of the cup every time he take a hesitant sip. He has a notebook and a large old tome spread out on the table in front of him. The cafe is crowded today, and as someone approaches, he slides everything out of the way.]
You can sit here! I'm taking up too much space!
g; The Citadel
[Generally followed by a guard or two, Toki has found ways of escaping them for a few hours at a time. He usually gets different people; no one can stand him two days in a row. That's mostly why they sometimes overlook it when he speeds off before they can catch him. As long as he doesn't leave the school grounds, they haven't seemed to care much.
After having been in the Citadel several times for Cassandra and mission control, Toki's fairly certain he can just walk in there at any time and no one's going to be suspicious. Which is exactly what he's doing. It's a day for exploration and knowledge gathering. The hangar has no interest for him, but he has to bypass it to get to where he wants to be; inspecting Ouroboros and more importantly, Cassandra.]

Orihi-Oh. Her. Yeah, just come in, I think she was around here early or went out to do something and would be back. Dunno, wasn't really listening as I just really needed a shower. [At least she's not too fussed about it and is moving out of the doorway to motion for him to come in.]
no subject
I should probably text her then, but it's... awkward. Anyway! How are you~!?
no subject
Though she's not sure why he picked the desk, but that's really none of her business.]
Awkward to text her or an awkward situation? [At least she's leaning against the nearest wall.] And I'm... fine, I guess? Dunno, still getting used to this place and all that goes along with it.
no subject
Both? Like, I haven't talked to her in so long I think texting is kind of- it just doesn't convey any emotion, you know!? But then talking to her face to face might not be any better because I don't know if she'd want to see me in the first place!
[He scrolls through his phone for Orihime's number again, but still can't bring himself to simply send her a message.]
It definitely takes a while to get used to! I've been here since January and I still don't know what's going on most of the time!
no subject
So you decide to go with a non-neutral place where she could easily kick your ass and throw you out? Not the... brightest idea I've ever seen or heard, but that's not really how you function, is it? [... Rude, but true.
She can't help a soft sigh and shifting her gaze to the ceiling for the time being.]
Doubt I'll ever really know, either. But at the very least I can try and make the best of the situation?
no subject
[He ignores Jolyne's comment on his lack of "bright" ideas; it's a very common inference and he hears some version of it almost every day.]
That's really the only thing to do now, make the best of it~! Because you're going to die in two years anyway!
no subject
You don't know a damn thing about me and don't you pretend otherwise. [Evidently he hit a nerve, but it's enough for her to back off once more and stalk towards the bathroom to put some distance between them. Oof.]
no subject
What did I say!?
["Abrasive" was a compliment. Dying in Nightfall was the truth. He doesn't know which one she's upset about.]
I'm sorry!
[Now it's starting to hurt.]
no subject
In fact I hope she does prove you wrong in your assumptions so maybe you'll learn something about assuming things about people.
no subject
[He is so confused. Jolyne sounds very annoyed, and that's understandable maybe.]
Can you give me a hint!?
no subject
[She's just raising a hand and moving out the door now, oops.]
Nope!~ Enjoy your probable black eye when you're thinking of me later tonight.
no subject
[He stumbles over the desk chair a little on his way towards the door.]
I'm sorry! I'm just- I'm not good at this, or well anything, and I'll figure it out, I promise! No hints needed~!
no subject
[That's not... wrong, at the very least.]
Trust me on that. Later~ [And she's pretty much booking it, what even.]
no subject
It reads, in hastily scrawled Japanese:
Orihime,
I dropped by, but you weren't here. Sorry I haven't been in touch.
Here's my new number. Call me, maybe.
-Toki
That will do. He's off down the hall, slower than usual, and trailing his hand along the wall just in case. Must avoid getting hit in the eye in the future. He should head back to Lumiere and maybe find Maverick.]
