Raye had indicated that the weather would be favorable on Sunday, so when the rain started coming down over the weekend, she got angry. And she ranted at the spirits, who didn't bother responding to her demands for pleasant weather to encourage attendance at the shrine. But to her relief, Sunday morning brought blue skies after all. Whether that was the spirit's doing, or if the skies were going to clear up on their own, who could say? Raye didn't care so long as she got results.

She rushed to the temple as soon as she was dressed in order to put up the paper lanterns once more...and to throw out her blanket on the spot she thought was the best for watching cherry blossoms. If no one else had claimed it first, then she was within her rights to aggressively stake her territory, especially if she was going to spend the day with Jaune and Minako, possibly some of her other friends as well. She hoped Harry would show up, but Everglade had a lot going on, so it wouldn't surprise her if he couldn't. She'd lecture him about it later.

Hastily she swept up the courtyard and tossed feed at the chickens, trying to take care of her daily chores before the first of the party-goers arrived. She'd worked hard to make this tradition a success, and no one...no one...was going to ruin it. Or they would face her wrath.

[OH MY

Bahahahahahaha....!!

[he can't help it!! seeing her so lively like this is really entertaining! he missed this kind of situation with them, so he wanted to take full advantage of it.]

Too good, aah it's just too good!

[tenminutes]

I never even want to hear the word mackerel again unless it's to hear that they stopped selling it in stores so you're not allowed to buy it!

[ SHE'S GOING TO WAD UP A NAPKIN AND THROW IT AT HIM NOW!! ]

[chestboard]

[NAPKIN'D

COME ON YURI!]

Is it really that bad...?! It can't be, it's traditional Ushiromiya delicacy!!

[tenminutes]

It's not a delicacy if it's all you have for more than a year's worth of the same two days!! It's an Ushiromiya torture device!

[chestboard]

Hey hey, that was just Kumasawa-san's style, you know! She was the one that stocked it up so much!

[tenminutes]

I'm never having mackerel again! EVER! I'm rebelling! I'm rebelling against mackerel! < Rebels against the mackerel! >

[ SHE'S JUST LEANING BACK NOW and then she leans forward and takes a bite of the tuna thank god he didn't really get mackerel though she would legit kill him. ]

[chestboard]

U...uwaaahhh?!?! You're not... you wouldn't...!! Yuuurriiiiiii!!

[HE STANDS.]

Don't even think about iiiiiiiiiiiiittt.....!!! Don't.... don't say that! Instead, say < see you again > to the mackerel-!!

[tenminutes]

[ YURI STANDS UP WITH HIM, REACHING OUT AND POKING HIM IN THE CHEST ]

More like < See you in hell mackerel! >

[chestboard]

[HE... STUMBLES BACK...!!]

I see now.... y-.... yes.... uuuooouuggghh it's so useless, so totally useless!! [he grabs his head!]

How could I be so bliiiiiiinnd?! The mackerel... it's a curse.... it's evil-! We have to rebel, we can't even look at it anymore.

[tenminutes]

Completely useless! [ Yuri steps around the food to get to him, grabbing both of his arms with her hands, holding on as she looks at him diretly in the eyes. ]

They brainwashed you, Battler! But you see the truth now, right?!

[chestboard]

I see it... oh god dammit, do I ever see it! How could I have... not realized it before?!

[HE SHOOK HIS HEAD.] No more mackerel, ever again!

[tenminutes]

I'm glad you realized it before it was too late.

[ HUGS HIS SHOULDERS COMFORTINGLY?? ]

[chestboard]

[EMBRACES HER!]

You saved meeee!!

[tenminutes]

[ Pats his back in the hug!! ]

You know I'd never leave you to rot in mackerel hell!

[chestboard]

[WHEW....

but during the midst of the hug, battler just burst out laughing.]

Pff... huhahahah! Aah what're we doing?!

[tenminutes]

[ Yuri cracks up the second that Battler does, leaning her forehead against him as she tries to stop herself from doubling over. ]

I don't know, you started with the mackerel!

[chestboard]

[it's been forever since they've been able to laugh like this! battler loves it.]

N-no no, more like it's been generations of mackerel being started in my family, I didn't start it!

[tenminutes]

You started it this time, stupid!

[ She lightly hits him in the arm, still laughing. ]

[chestboard]

What can I say-?!

[he's laughing a lot as well.] I never thought a ban on mackerel would be so funny-!

[tenminutes]

What's funny is that I had to ban it in the first place!

[chestboard]

Ahahah yeah yeah!

[he was moving away from her now, going back to the blanket.]

[tenminutes]

[ Yuri grabs his hand to stop him when he does that, trying to pull him back to her for a kiss without thinking. Honestly, she was just so happy right now that she'd forgotten all the crap for a moment. ]

[chestboard]

[...WHOA WHAT?!

when she suddenly kisses him, battler entirely freezes up. it's been so long since they've done something so intimate... but at the same time, he's missed it so much. he didn't want to push her and make the move first, so he was glad that she came to him. battler melted into the kiss, an arm around her waist as he kissed her right back.

even though she had a different body, it still felt like yuri. he was happy for that, but he would never think of her as anyone else other than yuri.]

[tenminutes]

[ Yuri continues kissing him as he embraces her for a few moments, just going with her instincts for a few seconds until she breaks it. There's a small smile on her lips now and she doesn't push him away from holding her. ]

That was just- I mean-! [ She's huffing a little. ] I was just in the moment!

[chestboard]

Remind me to get you into the moment more often~! Ihihi!

[yupyup bro!! and he's not letting go of her, not just yet!]
