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.]

Anything, anywhere~!
no subject
[He's not actually sure how far Soleil is, but the bus ride always seems short enough. He grabs Adelaide's hand, noticing for the first time how cold it really is, and heads towards the road to town.]
no subject
[She doesn't mind walking, but they do have buses for a reason!!
She doesn't protest him taking her hand, though, content to follow him to wherever it is they're going.]
no subject
[There's no one around on the road to Soleil. He avoided the the bus primarily because he thinks Adelaide might not want to be around a lot of people if she still feels guilty. All those humans with throbbing veins sitting so close to her. It could be bad.]
no subject
[He's not wrong, but being alone with someone is still risky...
Ugh. She's not going to feel good about spending time with anyone for a long, long while.]
But you're not wrong. It's pretty nice.
no subject
[Not far from the Academy, there's a small path that turns off the main road. Toki takes it on impulse. Adelaide probably doesn't care if they ever get to a bar. The path starts off with slate here and there, eventually becoming just dirt; the other slabs of rock having long been overtaken by the earth.]
no subject
[A star-gazing cat...cute.
Adelaide isn't sure they're ever going to make it to their destination, but that's...fine. It truly is. All that matters is the two of them are safe, and she'll do anything she can to make that come true.]
no subject
Come on! It's a great view up here!
no subject
She climbs up the rock, wondering how Toki would have even found a place like this. It's not a bad place, though, and she's glad the weather is getting warmer.
Not that the cold really bothered her, much.]
You come here often?
[She can't picture him as the type to like it. He doesn't seem the sort to be keen about sitting still.]
no subject
[Watching the stars falls more into the "Look! So pretty! It sparkles!" category than sitting still and relaxing. Which he points out, as it's dark enough to see said stars, yet the sky has a deep purple haze on the horizon.]
See!? Isn't it beautiful!?
no subject
Adelaide leans back on the rock, supporting herself with her arms as she looks out at the sky. It really is pretty out here.]
It's really pretty. Almost too pretty, you know? It doesn't seem real.
[How can beauty like this exist when there's such terrible things that happens?
...Meh. That's a little grim. The world is beautiful because things like this can exist to bring smiles to people's faces.]
no subject
no subject
I'm pretty sure they're real. I mean, people have been up to space. We know it's there.
But...having something to hold on to isn't so bad. The world can be kind of shitty, yeah, but there's things that make life worth living and having those things is a good thing. I'd rather see the stars and think about tomorrow than think about how terrible everything between me and them is.
no subject
[He waves at the sky.]
So you can't really be all that bad, can you~!? You're on my list!
no subject
And a part of her doesn't...believe him. How can she make him happy when she attacked him?
Toki is too nice for her, she thinks.]
I guess I must not be.
[Though she doesn't really believe that.]
You wouldn't put just anyone on your list, after all.
[She has no idea.]
no subject
Oh, absolutely not! The list is really hard to get on! Well, for people~! Like, sparkles and cats are on there, but people are more complicated! Rex didn't even make the list!
[Kano did, though, so Adelaide's in questionable company.]
no subject
Really? After he saved your eye?
[She laughs, though, shaking her head. It might be a long list, it might be a short one, but either way she's still...touched to be on it.]
no subject
Even after that! Maverick did that too, and he's not on the list either~! You're very special!
[Adelaide seems to care so much about everyone else; she's kind and genuine, and even though she has some self-worth issues, he has faith she'll overcome them. She'll shine like the stars when she's ready.]
no subject
Adelaide's cheeks go a little pink, and she shakes her head.]
Well...I'm glad you think so.
[She smiles, softly, looking over at Toki.]
You're pretty special too, you know? Though I'm sure you get that a lot.
no subject
Not really~! But I'm glad you think so~!
[He smiles back and grabs her hand again because she never seems to mind.]
no subject
Of course I think so! You're a great person. Not everyone would forgive me the way you did.
no subject
[He has been thinking about something, though.]
Did you like it better, human blood? Because I can like get you some, you know. Covertly. I have ways.
[Ways that involve bribery and flirting with hospital employees.]
no subject
[To a lot of people her being a vampire is unforgivable, much less being attacked by her.]
I...should be fine. You don't have to go out of your way for me.
[Though she is touched by the offer, even if it's incredibly suspicious. She doesn't want to know what he means by he has ways, but...
It's probably better not to ask.]
no subject
[He's going to attempt to be quiet, and just watch the stars until it gets too cold out. This went better than expected and he should have talked to Adelaide much earlier.]
no subject
[But...she probably won't. She doesn't know what he's planning, but. She'll be fine. She has Rex, after all.
She settles back on the rock, hands across her stomach, and looks up at the stars. This day has been...nice. Nicer than she expected, anyways.]
