New Friends [Active]

Character(s): Flonne, Naminé, Xion, Yorda. Also includes Mao as a brief special guest!
Content: Yorda has invited several new friends over for a sleepover.
Setting: St. Destino hospital.
Time: Early evening to mid-morning, week 35
Warnings: Mao.

Urd had told her what to do, but Yorda was still a little nervous. She'd given her the make-up bag and showed her what to do with it, and dropped off a bit of clothing - a pretty purple dress, cute pink pajamas and a set of winter clothes - pointing out that most people slept in something other than what they wore every day - which, in turn, had led her to realize that she had yet to take Yorda shopping for new clothes and somewhere along the way, Yorda frankly got a little lost. But then, she normally did, and Urd's tirades rarely helped.

She'd also told her what to do in case any intruders (but really, Yorda knew she meant Mao) had shown up. Intruders were usually something to be feared, so why did Urd seem so gleeful at the prospect? Nevertheless, Yorda had hugged Urd gratefully and thanked her, and promised to make plans with her soon and tell her all about the party.

An hour or so later, Yorda stood, barefoot as usual, in her new dress - an apron covering it, as Urd had told her to be careful - and worked on carefully frosting the cupcakes Genie had taught her to make as she let dinner cool on the counter of the rather dreary hospital kitchen. She smiled to herself, her heart beating a little faster in rare excitement. She hoped the night would go well; now all she had to do was wait for the others to show up.

Naminé stumbled forward as Flonne pulled her over, unsure of what to do next and how to react to being pulled somewhere. The only times she'd been pulled forward hadn't been very good ones... but this one seemed to be a good thing. She glanced up and then picked out a darker color, a deep blue to start with.

She took a deep breath and started small. An ocean. Next would come the island and the sun. She smiled as she worked, finally starting to relax.

"Hmm....hnn...nnn? Hmm!" Flonne seemed to be waging an internal battle with her drawing, carefully outlining hearts and then holding out the piece of paper to give it a scrutinizing once-over before nodding and going back to work. "Yes...yes, this will do. I have to elegantly put forth the power of love in picture form! That'll speak to those who still have yet to understand, surely!"

She sat back on her heels and lifted up the drawing to show it to the other girls. "What do you think? I'll get them with one blow with this!" Said picture had...well, a lot of hearts on it. As well as a rather...sketchy depiction of herself holding hands with some round thing with blue sticks out of its head and what arguably might have been a red scarf.

Mao frowned. What were they talking about? It looked like they were just drawing, but that one fallen angel was talking about getting something with one blow... Was it really drawing or... were they planning something?

Mao furiously jotted down notes.

Yorda worked contentedly on her drawing, finishing with the field and taking a yellow colored pencil in order to work on some flowers. She glanced up from her drawing to look at Flonne's picture, tilting her head to the side. She thought she recognized Flonne in that picture, but who was that next to her? Yorda squinted, but couldn't recognize the person. It didn't help, of course, that she'd neither met or spoken to Laharl. "WHo is that?" she asked, tilting her head to the other side in curiosity.

When Flonne talked, Xion generally found it very confusing. Love she sort of understood... she liked to think that she loved her friends very much, even if her heart wasn't real. But she didn't think there was any kind of power behind it, except the power hearts normally had.

So, she didn't actually know what she was being asked, and decided to veer on the side of safety. "It looks nice," she said, smiling a little.

"It's good," Naminé answered in response to Flonne's question. The... figure she thought she recognized and she blinked momentarily at it, pausing in her drawing. She wanted to ask but at the same time didn't. What if she was wrong?

She looked back to her paper and added a couple of trees.

"This is Laharl-san! Hee hee, look, I made his angry eyebrows..." Flonne giggled, placing the paper back down and coloring in a few more hearts. "He's the greatest example I can think of when it comes to the power of love," she continued as she drew, her tail swaying happily behind her. "Even though every one told me in Celestia that demons were heartless monsters who had no feelings and couldn't feel love, I just knew that couldn't be true...and I was right! Laharl-san is a little rude and kind of selfish, but..."

Her voice grown soft, she looked down at the drawing with a gentle smile, blushing faintly. "But he's the best friend I've ever had."
drillsanddrool: (that is absolutely horrifying)

It took everything within Mao's power not to start retching right then and there. He couldn't write that down! Was that what girls talked about or was it just crazy fallen angels? And that cockroach Overlord? Really?

Mao nearly left right then and there, but his need to investigate quickly reprimanded him for giving up so easily. He couldn't give up on a chance like this just because of one disgusting thing! These were probably just to scare onlookers off. There had to be something more dangerous in there! They weren't even putting the warning colors on their nails yet!

Flonne sounded just like Urd. Urd was always speaking about the power of love and what it could do.Yorda smiled and nodded. "I do not think demons are heartless," she agreed. "Urd is half-demon, and she has been very kind to me." Indeed, the goddess had become something of a mother or sister figure to Yorda. "And Mao has been very kind to me. He saved me when I was afraid."

She'd been with him ever since, and he'd taught her so much since then - mostly about science and the like, but the princess had enjoyed it nevertheless, even if Mao did sometimes get a little overenthusiastic about his experiments.

Xion was thinking something else when Flonne said 'heartless,' especially following the description. Where demons like Nobodies, then? That didn't make sense, though... Vyers was a demon, and even though he was a little strange at times he was very nice, and he seemed to care a lot about people. And with what they were saying about Laharl and Mao, he probably wasn't an exception.

Really, the answer was probably just that people had gotten it wrong, and demons weren't like Nobodies. But it still made her smile a little. "That's really nice," she said, more to herself than anyone.

"Oh! Laharl!"

Naminé knew him. Not very well, but she knew him. She nodded at the picture, recognizing it then. "It looks very good, Flonne."

Like Xion, Naminé's mind went somewhere else at the mention of Heartless and she cast a tiny glance at her friend before looking down. "Not all people who are different are bad," she whispered, focusing on her drawing again.

"That's right! I knew you girls would get it!" Inordinately pleased that everyone seemed to be on the same page, Flonne placed the picture down and leaned over to see what everyone else was drawing. "I don't think anyone is completely bad," she said in response to Naminé, catching the girl's whisper. "Everyone can be good, if they're given the chance."

Flonne suddenly straightened, looking over her shoulder. For some reason, she felt like they were being watched...but the feeling was gone as soon as it popped up so she shrugged and turned her attention to Yorda.

"So Mao-san is nice to you? Really?" She seemed a little doubtful of this.

Mao had to choke down all the things he wanted to say. What the hell was this crap about demons not being evil? Even Yorda was saying that? Mao had taught her better than that! And this fallen angel... what was she going on about? Mao clenched his teeth, his fingers twitching in his grip on his notepad. He didn't even want to take notes on this anymore. Were all girls this disgusting?

But the fact that they kept on talking about that cockroach... His curiosity was getting the better of him, and so Mao kept in place, leaning against the wall with a scowl firmly set on his features. Five more minutes. If he didn't get any good information by then, he was out of there--girl defensive strategies or no.

Yorda nodded in agreement with Naminé, smiling at her and Xion. After all, she was different from everyone else she had ever met; she knew different wasn't bad. Besides, the princess liked to believe the best of people. Even those who had appeared harsh had mostly treated her kindly, with a rare few exceptions (then again, Hades wasn't really kind to anybody).

The glowing girl nodded enthusiastically, a bright smile overtaking her face. "Yes," she answered. "He has taught me much, and kept me by his side. He saved me when I was frightened." Never mind that Mao kept insisting it was a kidnapping; Yorda had gone with him willingly. "I am very fond of him," she admitted - not that it was a secret.

'Good' was a little bit of an odd word, to Xion. She knew what Flonne meant (she thought), but she was still not very old, and most of her time had been with the Organization. Which, she'd learned, was probably the opposite of 'good.' But people like Axel were still really nice, even though he was a part of it too. Maybe that was what she'd meant.

She didn't know who Mao was, really, so she quietly finished up her drawing. The attempt was... not quite what she'd hoped for.

[personal profile] prismsmemory 2012-02-29 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Naminé also had trouble defining 'good' in the context Flonne meant, so she, like Xion, remained quiet, preferring to listen to her friends to see what they might say in response and if she could understand a little better about what people who weren't Sora, Riku, Kairi, or Roxas did. Or Timon, she supposed.

Her own drawing was close to completion, so she slowed down just a little bit.

[personal profile] love_freak 2012-03-12 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
"Hmm..." She fell into silence, considering. Flonne knew more than most that demons were more than they appeared, but even at their best, they could be kind of...mean. And Mao seemed even further behind on being enlightened about love than Laharl, so she wondered just how nicely he treated Yorda. But if Yorda said she was fine, she'd believe her. That was what friends were supposed to do, right?

"It's too bad he's not a girl, or we could have invited him too!" she said suddenly. "He'd look adorable!"

That was it. Mao couldn't take it anymore. Yorda getting her facts wrong, all this terrifying girl talk, he could stand all that. It was hard and his stomach was still rolling over itself in a desperate attempt to keep his lunch down, but he could stand it for the good of science. But that? That was too much.

His hand tightened around his notepad, crinkling the paper a little as Mao whipped around the corner, his coat flaring out behind him. "I would not!" he yelled, only realizing his mistake after a second or two had passed.

[personal profile] nonomoribird 2012-03-25 09:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Yorda giggled at Flonne's assertion that Mao would be adorable, and had just opened her mouth to reply when Mao burst in. The glowing girl blinked at him, her drawing forgotten as she observed him. "Hello, Mao. Did you enjoy your dinner?" she asked him, not embarrassed at all by his appearance. Another question came to mind, and Yorda stood, brushing off her dress.

"Have you been standing there the entire time? I would have invited you in if you wished." Just what had he been doing?

[personal profile] whodoyousee 2012-06-01 03:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Xion jumped a little when Mao yelled, quickly turning to look at him. Like Yorda, she didn't particularly mind him being there... but he had scared her a little bit. "Why were you hiding?" she asked, genuinely puzzled.

[personal profile] prismsmemory 2012-06-02 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Naminé also started in surprise at the sound of Mao's voice and she slid a little closer to Xion, peering around at him. She didn't offer anything else, waiting to see what would be said before she jumped in.

[personal profile] love_freak 2012-06-06 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Flonne squeaked in surprise, jumping to her feet and ready to do battle...but then she froze along with Mao. Thinking for a moment, she suddenly placed her fist in her palm as she came to a conclusion.

"Oh, I know what this is...he feels left out, Yorda-san! Mao-san, were you lonely? It's okay!"

[personal profile] drillsanddrool 2012-06-16 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
"What?! No, that's not it at all!" This fallen angel was determined to misinterpret every little thing he did, wasn't she? "Just... forget you saw me, got it?! I wasn't even here!"

[personal profile] nonomoribird 2012-06-17 01:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Yorda tilted her head, curious at the strange way Mao was acting. "But you are here," she replied, confused. "How can we forget?" Of course, she knew Mao had a tendency to be (inexplicably, to her) flustered, at times, but why was he now?
whodoyousee: (Xion [Puzzled])

[personal profile] whodoyousee 2012-06-19 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
"I think he means we should pretend," Xion suggested, though she was still a little puzzled. Why was he so upset about this? It really wasn't that big of a deal.
