Safe Sonico [voice and action options]

[sonicosuper]

 [voice]

Good evening, everyone. I hope that everyone is safe and well following recent...events. I am so grateful for all the people who worked so hard to keep everyone safe. Thank you! I am also incredibly thankful for those who voted so kindly towards, and who have supported my singing. You are all so very kind and generous people.

Now that people are more comfortable, I hope you don't mind me asking - what do people do for a housewarming party? What would make it the loveliest housewarming you have ever been to?

[action a - through towns at night]

Now that Sonico had regular slots at different night clubs, it meant she had to get used to walking home at night. When Cassian wasn't with her, Sonico would wander her way through Nova or Genessia to find the best way back to Attleton. Sometimes she is singing softly to herself, headphones on; other times she would go somewhere to grab something quick and convenient to eat; sometimes trying to juggle a hot takeaway cup while trying to eat a pretzel or a burger at the same time. Why not take her up on a night time stroll?

[action b - busking in Genessia gardens]

Okay, so it's not busking as such, but when the days are nice, Sonico can be found in the gardens in her summer clothes, relaxing by the pond maybe, or else strumming songs as she sits crossed legged on a bench with her acoustic guitar. Come see and hear the cutest female and best singer, so say recent awards.

[Action B]

[cursed_analysis]

Dear me. You still play well...Though for you it's only been a short amount of time, hasn't it?

[He's perched in one of the trees, far off the ground and lounging idly, one foot hanging off branch he rested on. As he comments, he looks down with a smile and adjusts his glasses, acting like he never left, for the moment.]

[Action B]

[sonicosuper]

*Sonico had just finished a short tune when Arro suddenly appears like the Cheshire cat. The shock of hearing him and seeing him causes her to smack her hand down hard against her guitar, which drops to the ground with a loud and horrible twang*

Wha -?! I mean I - You - How?

*It doesn't make any sense, but she gets up to her feet in alarm*

[Action B]

[cursed_analysis]

[There is a questioning hum at her reaction, and he lets himself down from the tree, landing solidly on his feet and stepping over to her quickly.]

Are you well?

[He knelt to retrieve her guitar, pleased he had not recoiled at the terrible noise her instrument had made.]

[om_nom_namur]

[He's passing through the gardens on his way to Everglade for the evening shift when he catches her scent, and the sound of her guitar in the air.

Aw. Shit.

Well, he can be late. It might actually kill someone but they were probably already dead anyway so it kinda equals out. In any case, he makes his way over to where she is, leaning his arms on the back of the park bench next to her until she finishes her song. He doesn't look at her, but he's heartened in not being able to smell any new injuries.]

Hey.

[sonicosuper]

*Of course Sonico realises his presence as soon as he begins to lean on the bench. Sure, he isn't looking at her, but she speeds up her song and finishes abruptly as she turns on the bench to look at him*

Namur! Hello!

*She sounds positively pleased because he's here, and therefore safe, right?*

[om_nom_namur]

[Well, that's a good sign. Hopefully.]

Been doin' okay? Mean, y' ain't hurt or feeldead or nothin', aye?

[Action A]

[armofgod]

[Michio caught her trying to juggle food. He doesn't take anything from her, but does come up with a laugh.]

Still haven't got someone to walk with you?

[Action A]

[sonicosuper]

*Only, when he approaches, she has just put a paper bag in her mouth so that she can use both hands to try and open the lid of her hot tea, and that isn't working out so well. All she can do is a strange smile and shake her head*

[Action A]

[armofgod]

[Michio looks amused and holds out a hand, motioning for her to hand him something of what she's carrying. Since while she does have it; she could be doing better.]

You should invest in a boyfriend, then.

action b

[growsveggies]

[Haru had found the garden and had been currently kneeling down, studying some of the various plants that were around. She wondered if it was the natural soil they used or was it something else.

She smiled slightly before she looked over, listening to the music for a moment.]

You know, they say that certain music can help plants grow really well.

[sonicosuper]

*Sonico was quite happily humming and strumming away when she heard someone speak. Though she continued to play, she did so quietly, turning to the stranger*

Really? I have never heard of that. Has there been research on it?

[growsveggies]

I believe people have tried it, but no one I've personally known. Nor have I really thought to try it out myself.

[Soil was her thing at the end of the day, it was better.]

voice;

[moviemagic]

Never actually thrown a housewarming party, but they really are just like most parties except at someone's new house they either bought or built or... whatever.

Voice;

[sonicosuper]

So like a normal party?

*There's a pause as she thinks about this*

So what do people do for a normal party?

Voice;

[moviemagic]

Pretty much, so it wouldn't be that hard for you to throw together.

[She paused.]

Have you ever been to parties before?

action; a

[sizedoesntmatter]

[Yugi was currently out, walking all of his pokemon for their nightly stroll. It didn't help that he couldn't sleep right about now. As to why he still wasn't sure. Although when he had caught wiff of a smell he couldn't help but follow, his pokemon following behind him.

It wasn't long before he turned a corner, stopping suddenly.]

Ah, sorry. Sorry.

[sonicosuper]

*That sudden surprise of someone, and their pokemon, appearing like that round the corner made Sonico shriek. Startled, she tried to move out the way, but trips on the kerb and twists her ankle*

Oh!

Oww!

[sizedoesntmatter]

[Yugi was quick enough to quickly run over. A worried look on his face.

Here, let me help you.

[He made sure to kneel down so if she needed a shoulder to lean on to get up she could use it.]

[Action A]

[sakuya_izayoi]

Sakuya had heard the voice message earlier but she was still half-asleep. She chose instead to get another hour or so before she had to get up for the night, making a mental note to talk to Sonico about it later on.

---

Sakuya was looking for prey again tonight. Ever since Xander disappeared her nasty habit of, well, being a serial killer was much worse than it usually was. And lo, there was a lone woman walking down the streets tonight.

Sakuya landed some distance ahead and around a corner, waiting. She was playing with her knife impatiently. Something about her prey's silhouette reminded her of something... Or, rather, of someone. She couldn't put her finger on it... At least, not at first.

Her footfalls were familiar too. The rhythm of steps. Those expensive shoes. She lowered her knife a fraction. Who was...?

It dawned on her just before Sonico turned the corner, the maid flickering in a panic and putting her knife away, waving stiffly and... trying to smile.

"Ah! Hello Sonico! You're not usually out this late!" Stiff as a board and just as rough. Elegance, dammit! Elegance!

[Action A]

[sonicosuper]

Oh!

*That's all Sonico's surprise came to at first, her eyes wide as she nearly dropped the bottle of water that she was carrying. She managed to keep hold of it, just. Fortunately, Sonico had been in enough of a day dream that she hadn't registered that there might be a knife of anything being hidden. Sakuya's mannerisms, however, were surprising*

Sakuya! Are you okay?

[sakuya_izayoi]

"Ah- Yes! I'm fine! Don't worry about me!" Her eyes were still crimson and giving off a faint glow in the dark. She was carrying the slight pressure of distorted spacetime around her.

"Just stress." She was recovering, taking a steadying breath. "Just... out for a jog." She wasn't in uniform but she didn't look like she was wearing exercise clothes.

"So... Umm." She glanced around, swallowing, flickering once to regain her composure. "Would you like an escort home?" Her eyes were still red.

[nrgsvr]

My brother combined it with a party to celebrate the release of his manga.

He made food. He wore bunny ears.

Weiss combined her housewarming party with Christmas.

People should bring you useful household items.

Voice

[sonicosuper]

So... housewarming parties that are combined with other events are better?

I should get some bunny ears! And...get someone else to make the food. But that still counts, right?

[k2so]

I didn't have time to tell you in person but congrats for the award, Sonico. You really deserve it.

Housewarming party...?

[sonicosuper]

Oh, thank you so much. That's really very kind.

A housewarming party is a party where people come to congratulate people on having a new home. I thought it might be nice. And it would be great to meet some of your friends, and Cassian's.

That is...if that's okay with you?
