1st Mystery Croquette: Action

[ultimauniform]

As a No-Star, Mako was used to finding herself in strange places if she wasn't in her usual home in the slums. Obviously, now things would be much different with the world free of the terrors of the Life-fibers -and Ryuko & Satsuki's crazy mother!- but that wasn't what worried her so much!

...

...

Actually, being in a strange new world would normally be really exciting for Mako if she wasn't sleeping somewhere near The Bay. In Nova City. That would be really inspiring for her to see, gawk and stare at in all it's glory...!

If, as previously stated, she wasn't asleep.

And what about her newfangled device she received upon arriving? It's in her hand. Possibly turned on. With anyone who's listening in possibly hearing her snore oh-so-lightly while currently unaware of her new lifestyle away from home and mystery croquettes.

Ryuko stares for a long moment. A very long moment. Probably the longest she ever stared at Mako before.

She knelt down in front of the woman. She tilted her head a little to the side, curled her forefinger up inside her thumb, and flicked the woman upside her ear.

"OI!"

[ultimauniform]

Oww! That hurt! Mataro, was that y-?!

(Mako's almost in tears as she's woken up rather abruptly, and almost annoyed as her eyes jerk open to see the perpetrator of that rotten, nasty, vile deed...and then her eyes open wide as she just stares back at Ryuko.

Staaaaaaaaaaare...and cue sudden leap into the air with arms outstretched!)

RYUKO-CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN~!!!!!!!!!

[bondsofthread]

W-W-WOAH! [With no time to prepare, and only a vague moment to wonder how girl built up momentum that quickly, Ryuko slammed backward from the suddenly flying Mako.]

O-Oi! Watch where you're going...

When did you even get here?

[ultimauniform]

(Mako just glomps Ryuko right there, arms wrapped around the other girl's waist while giving her question some thought.)

I got here about 5-10 minutes ago, I think! Or maybe it was 20 minutes. I heard everything that Weiss-san, or is it Schnee-san, had to say while keeping track of my walkie-talkie, wondered if anyone else from home was here and took a nap!

How long have you been here, Ryuko-chan? Did you come just after our date too?

[bondsofthread]

"They're not exactly napping." she pointed off into the distance. "Sis is running the school again. Guess she's the city guardian or something." She sort of feels like she should be proud of her sis, but everything is a complicated mess of timelines. She doesn't know what to think of anyone, and no one knows what to think of her.

She's ignoring the question of how long she's been here, but. "...Neah. It was after the graduation ceremony."

[ultimauniform]

Ehhh?! The graduation ceremony?!! OMG I MISSED OUR GRADUATION! I'll have to repeat the year all over again and it was hard enough to understand what our teachers said before; what am I gonna do now that everything's been blown sky high and the school's practically a crater with nothing but ruined life-fibers and scattered clothes all around?

(...Hopefully Ryuko understands amidst all of this that her girlfriend's part of that 'complicated mess' of timelines -aka, she's from 'before' said graduation.)

...Satsuki-sama's running another school?

[bondsofthread]

Hey! WE're not seniors yet, remember? Heh. Guess we're both transfer students now, actually...

[But yeah, Ryuko more or less gets it. Mako doesn't know what she's talking about.]

More like she moved the school here....

[ultimauniform]

...Huh? Moved the school here?! How is that possible? Did Satsuki-sama use some sort of hidden ability with life-fibers to make the school move? Does she use that same power to make others go to her school? Did she move our teachers here too?!

(Mako's pretty much got quite a few questions and she's hoping Ryuko can answer most of them. 'Cause seriously, when have Mako and Satsuki ever conversed with each other pre-end of the world maneuvers?)

But, that's great to hear; we're both transfer students now, so we can get matching transfer student buttons or maybe pins or how about backpacks?!

[bondsofthread]

I think it's just a copy. Or something...

[Because Ryuko had regular conversations with her sister? Ah, well, it's Mako. Mako's a bundle of endless energy, and she'd freak out if her girl started acting any other way. Start thinking the woman had been replaced by evil clothes or something.]

I'll be glad just to wear normal uniforms again...

[ultimauniform]

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, that's the spirit Ryuko-chan! Wearing normal clothes again should be vital to our future unfinished education!

(Mako's bounced up and down, left and right, all around while keeping her bff/girl in her sights as well. While she suspects Ryuko's a future version that's still aright with her; she's still Ryuko and that's all that matters.)

Better to have on regular clothes than going naked like the Colony!

[bondsofthread]

...Yeah. [There's a dull ache when she thought of Senketsu. She had promised to wear cute clothes, though.]

We gotta graduate together, right? You might need to stay up in class for that.

[ultimauniform]

(Cue loud bout of laughter while smiling broadly at Ryuko.)

Right! We'll definitely graduate together...and Mako promises to try and stay awake during class.

(Or at least, she'll try to have her homework finished.)

Sorry for slowness. :(

[bondsofthread]

...Yeah. I'll be mad if I don't see you at the graduation ceremony, alright?
