flameandpassion | 33 [Accidental Video]

[The PCD is turned on as it is tossed onto Rei's bedside table with a resounding thunk. The girl doesn't appear all that happy and her eyes look suspiciously bright, but her hair shields her face as she bends down to scoop up whatever had fallen out of her bag.]

-- stupid -- immature -- why did I even --

[And Rei tosses her bag onto her bed before she pauses in her tirade. Her eyes suddenly grow wide and her breath catches in her throat.

She crosses to the bed and reaches out to the bed, fingers curling around an object. When it's lifted to eye-level, it's shown to be her Mars Crystal Power transformation wand.

The last time it appeared in Adstringendum, it had been during the canon update/backdate event. When she had been given a rush of new memories, when Hitsugaya had lost his limbs, and when Hino Rei and Tsukino Usagi died.

She turns to the PCD to grab it before noticing it's already on. A muscle in her cheek twitches before she exhales slowly, resting her new transformation wand against her cheek, closing her eyes to think before she speaks.]

... Toushirou, you haven't done anything dumb, have you? And girls, have you gotten anything?

What I told you. And then he brought up what you said and when I asked about it, he told me to go home. So I did.

[So it really wasn't about what she said. She'd turned out to be right instead.]

I know he wouldn't try to hurt you, but he really can't say something like that!

I don't know, Usagi-chan.

[And Rei finally stops picking up things and leans against the wall with a sigh.]

I was looking forward to it all week.

[Oh, she knows; Usagi is made of that excitement and anticipation. She knows how it feels when those things don't work out as much as she knows the thrill of when they do.]

I'm sorry, Rei-chan. It must have hurt.

Yeah.

[There's not much else to say but agree with it.]

Did you break up with him?

[This would be an odd question if she weren't totally the sort to break up with Mamoru over something petty ~~like not magically knowing her birthday~~ when this was actually hurtful.]

No.

[Eep. That was curt. Usagi gives a tiny wince and quickly starts picking up trash from the floor]

[A heavy exhale.]

Should I? I don't know.

What do you think? What does your heart tell you?

... I don't know if I should do anything without sleeping and thinking about it first.

Hey! Since you're here, stay over!

... a sleepover just down the hall?

Why not? It'll be fun!

... well, I have to go get my stuff, but yeah, I'd like that.

Go go! I'll get this cleaned up while you get ready~!

[And Rei will grin a little and go to drag her blankets and pajamas over.]

[IT IS A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE: there is actually noticeable progress made by the time Rei's back. Usagi grins from ear to ear.]

Wow, Usagi-chan, you're motivated!

Because Rei-chan was coming!

It almost looks clean in here.

I can clean it when I decide I want to.

I guess... you need a bookshelf or something for all your rabbits.

They can go on my bed.

You'd knock them all off in your sleep, Usagi-chan, you kick.
