Quest Start

You’re running a bit late, which is normal, so you aren’t too worried about it. Actually, compared to your usual schedule, you’re a bit ahead of the time you usually get out the door in a screaming rush; more than that, you’ve got an important meeting before class...provided you can make it to school before they close the front gate.

Your best friend’s brother, who you have a crush on, gave you a call this morning. Unfortunately the topic will turn out to be anything but pleasant.

You are Koyomi Chiba, third year Junior High student. You are also the pretty Guardian of Love & Justice, Sailor Moon; fourth the bear that title after your mother and sisters.

...who for the moment are a sore and worrying subject.

Bag in hand, you strike out the door to get to school.

“Mom, Dad, I’m going!” you cry out as you slip on your shoes and stride out the door.

Before you talk to Koito Kino at school today, you need to talk to the genesis of his current concerns and troubles. Your best friend Kanari. Koito is worried about his sister, her recent behavior, and the strange feeling that everyone is keeping something from him...which they are.

He called you this morning to express these concerns, and that he would confide these personal troubles in you made your heart skip a beat. Could it be that after all these years he is finally letting the walls of his usually tightly kept emotions down?

Speeding out of your room, you run log and hard through familiar streets trying to intersect with the most direct line from the Jupiter Cafe to your school. Before too long, you find your best friend shooting down the street. Her long brown ponytail whipping behind her.

You’re pushing your limit, and she’s going to fast. You might be able to run up along side her for a second or call out to her.

Coming to a stop, you watch as Kanari pulls away from you. Soon she’ll turn the corner and be lost to you. Taking a deep breath you use your perfect weapon. Even strained after your extended run, your lungs and diaphragm are incredibly powerful. So you use them.

“KANARI-CHAN!” you below out to the charging athletic girl, “WAIT UP!”

You’ve been told that the pitch of your voice was impossible to miss, probably only going silent when it hits a high enough note to only be heard by dogs. Its a cruel joke, but probably accurate. Still, it wasn’t that high today. Kanari comes to a sudden stop and turns to look over her shoulder as your hands find your knees. She sees you panting to catch your breath.

“Koyomi-chan?” she says confused.

Running seems to have bled the frustration from her face, but you see trace amounts. She quickly walks back over to you and offers you a shoulder. Groaning, you take her arm.

“Why are you all the way out here?” she asks as you resume your path to school at a more sedate pace.

Holding up a finger you continue to gulp for breath as she keeps you moving at a calm gait. She accepts your plea for pause and sighs.

“What am I going to do with you,” she sighs and casts a joke, “Maybe your sister is right, we should really get you to run every morning,”

That catches you by surprise.

“EHHH?” you cannot help you response, “but I don’t want to run every morning,”

Kanari smirks, and then laughs are your suddenly worried and upset state. Its refreshing to hear her laugh.

“Anyway, what’re you doing over here, running, Koyomi-chan?”

“E-heheheh,” you laugh to yourself nervously.

“I wanted to complain to you about Mikage-neechan,” you puff your cheeks out.

Even if you did come here to get a handle on her before you talked to Koito, you gotta get some things off of your chest. Kanari is your best friend, so its her duty to bear the brunt of your whining. Kanari, not being Mikage’s biggest fan, can do that for you.

Both your complaints about her and your concern for her.

“What did she do now?” she rolls her eyes and huffs.

You go quiet and right youself, no longer learning on her for support.

“She was really reserved last night…” you admit, “And really sad. I woke up on the couch while she was sitting there stroking my hair and she was looking off like she was completely lost. And this was after having us all so worried at the hospital for days...and…”

You can’t finish the sentence, Kanari understands. How terrified you were when she was snarling at you. Clad in the black of what Usa referred to reverently as the ‘Dark Lady’, your sister’s feral state frightened and worried you.

“To learn that she’s been running around and busting her ass on so many different fronts...between helping Sugimoto-san and being the beast…” you’re a bit angry about all that, “I’m worried she’s burnt herself out and is going to just go back to locking herself away in her room,”

Kanari rolls her eyes.

“What, you aren’t mad at her?”

“I’m mad that she went full twilight on Kairi-chan almost in front of me at the hospital,” you huff, “and I’m worried that she can still do that. I hit her with my healing magic and she is still going Alucardy on people,”

“I’ve been wondering why she’s darting around in the dark too,” Kanari crosses her arms and shakes her head, “thinking about it since she woke up, actually. Do you think she knew she might go berserk? Could explain why she’s been trying to keep her distance,”
>>
>>38498826

You are momentarily taken aback.

"You-you're being weird about this,"

"What, just because I don't like the way your sister has been acting doesn't mean I can't pull my head out of my own ass every once in a while,"

You nod at her reasoning and resuming your rolling complaint.

“I’m happy she came out of her room...but its like I hardly know her,” you hang your head, “And now Usa and mom are both leaving for who knows how long...and I don’t want her to shut me out again. This is all so confusing,”

“Yeah,” Kanari pats you on the back as you round a corner and see the school building come into sight, “Family can be complicated,”

Its still too early for the final bell, but the front gate is closed. Damn.

“Yeah,” you sigh as the two of you fall in step away from the shut gate and toward a set of bushes a few meters away, “Speaking of family...Koito called me this morning,”

“Ugh,” Kanari groans as she crouches and folds her hands together to boost you up, “You know he cornered me this morning,”

“Yeah. He was worried about you and-” you set a hand on her shoulder and step into her cupped hands.

“And he wanted to know what the rest of us are keeping from him,” she spits as she boosts you onto the wall.

She lifts you effortlessly and you scramble the rest of the way to balance on the wall. Turning around on all fours, you reach down and offer a hand to the girl. She takes it and you brace to the wall as you kicks off and pulls herself up.

“Ah, heavy!” you strain, “Well, are you going to talk to your mom about what the two of you will tell him,”

“We were going to figure that out before dinner... its our last chance to, especially with her leaving tomorrow,” she reaches the top of the wall and sits, sadly looking out over the the way you came., “Lets head in,”

She is about to pitch herself back onto the campus grounds, then you’d jump down for her to catch you, but someone clearing their throat catches both of your attention.

“Ahem,” turning you find a short girl with an auburn bob cut waiting for you.

The armband on her arm denotes her a hall monitor of the student disciplinary committee. Her name is Yuuko, and she’s in your class.

“Damn,” Kanari sighs, “If this morning wasn't depressing enough,”

Standing upright on top of the wall, you will not admit defeat.

“We’re not done yet!” you declare at the top of your lungs.

Even if you were complaining about her beforehand, you can’t help but wonder what your big sister would do in your shoes. She would probably not get caught like this...so you can’t get caught right now either.

“CHEESE IT!”

Breaking out into a run down the length of the wall, you know you can outrun this rap. Nothing can stop you on your mad run to make it to class on time!

Minutes later, you and Kanari both find yourself standing outside of your classroom. Waiting in the hall for half an hour before being allowed into class. Yuuko had shown up to class hot on your heels and ratted the two of you out. On top of it, because you tried to shake her authority she gave you additional disciplinary notices.

“So,” she whispers, “What did you say to Koito when he called?”

“That I’d talk to him today about it,” you sigh quietly, “I have no idea what I’m going to tell him,”

“Well, don’t out me and my mom. Okay,” Kanari shakes her head, “So...about Mikage running around behind our backs and helping out,”

“Not this again,” you whine, “Come on, there’s no way,”

“I’m serious. Dead serious,” she whispers back at you, “With how many other disguises she wears, why not,”

“I just don’t believe Mikage-neechan could be Eclipse,” you tell her earnestly.

Later, you and Kanari are let back into class. To your surprise, Koito is there. A while later, you aren’t paying close attention, lunch rolls around. Kanari gives you a worried look, Koito looks over to you expectantly.

Picking up your lunch box and holding it demurely in front of you, you walk over to Koito with a clear intent. This conversation needs to be private, and a private lunch with Koito could be your chance to make sure you’re the one he turns to for comfort when or if his mother and Kanari-chan tell him the truth.

“Lets have lunch on the roof together, Koi-chan!” you say clearly and with the uptick of a smile.

Some of the ambient conversation around the classroom stops. You feel eyes on you. Sparing a glance back, many of the girls in your class are looking at you. No doubt this will be a point of rumored discussion, look at you making a first move boldly.

“Ah, sure,” he says and collects his lunch, “I brought a thermos for you, thought I would get it to you this morning, but you wound up being late,”

As the two of you stride out of class together, Kanari shooting you a look of some stress while wishing you luck, a stray thought catches you.

“How did you get to class before us anyway,” she wonders, “Didn’t you leave home after Kanari-chan?”

“Yeah, the gate to the high school was open for the repairs,” he shrugs, “I cut across the shared athletic field,”

Hmmm...Koito is clever. You’ll have to be really careful with this conversation. That in mind, you worry that he might be mad at you later when the truth does come out. Or worse...he may start getting doughy eyed around your big sis. Its bad enough he nips like a puppy at Kairi-chan’s heels...and Mikage-neechan said Gai was off limits.

Not that you’ll seriously back down if you so desire it.

“That was really smart. Wish I had thought of that,” you let your shoulders fall as you reach the stairs.

>>38503209

“Yeah, I saw your little run along the outer wall,” he cracks a smile, “You two were doing pretty well,”

“Yeah, but I didn’t think that Yuuko would just tell the teacher,” you sigh, “And I got Kanari in more trouble on top of it,”

Getting to the roof, the two of you sit on the the bench. Looking over the athletic field at the school’s famed statues of your mother and sisters alternate identities through the rooftop fence, you open your bento and are delighted to find a wrapped sandwich and rice balls. Koito begins enjoying his own lunch and pours you a cap full from the thermos. Its still warm.

“Well, I guess you talked to her about our conversation this morning,” he resigns himself and removes his own thermos and takes a drink, “Tell me how it is, hazelnut mocha blend,”

“Yeah, I did,” you take a sip, “EEEEE, its so smooth and delicious!,”

Ok, he's clever, he rightfully figures we told his sister about his call, and we can't actually tell him anything but we don't want to lie and have him be mad at us.

Somehow I think he'd be clever enough to get too much out of us if we try to simply evade.
Go with honesty?
"Look, Koito, I can't tell you what's going on, they want to tell you themselves, and I don't want to lie to you and have you be mad at me later."

Writing

Giddily draining your cap, because it tastes like coffee touched nutella, you kick your legs and look out at the statues. Briefly you wonder when you’ll get a statue and then look back over to Koito.

“This is a difficult for her, Koi-chan,” you say with an air of melancholy, “and its not my secret to tell...okay...but they do want to talk to you about it,”

He sighs, stands, and leans forward against the chain link fence. Fingers threaded through the metal diamonds, he looks toward the statues.

“So you know what’s up,” he asks.

“Yeah,” you admit and set your cap down, “I’m not going to lie to you about it, Koi-chan. I don’t want you to be mad at me when this is all done. You saw how torn up Kanari-chan was last week,”

He turns to face you again, your hands resting in your lap. You can see the sadness and frustration on his face.

“This is uncharacteristically calm and insightful of you,” he observes and sighs.

“I can be insightful. There’s nothing uncharacteristic about that!” you puff your cheeks and snatch the left behind thermos and pour yourself another cap.

Koito would normally snap back at that kind of statement, but he still seems choked by this matter...and if your women’s intuition is as good as you think it is...possibly something else. Good god he’s even cute when he’s sad.

The rooftop is empty save for the two of you.

Setting the cap down, you find your resolve. You came up here to help Koito and Kanari...but you can’t help but leap at this opportunity. Its selfish, and maybe a bit immature, but your heart aches to comfort his uncertainty and pain. So you will. You will distract the hurt in his heart with the beat of your own.

“I guess you can be insightful, sometimes,” he muses.

Standing, you cross the distance between you and lean against the chain link fence beside him.

“Koito-chan,” you offer.

“Hmmm?”

You spin in front of him, leaning over him thanks to your slight advantage in height, and slip your fingers through the fence with one hand to steady yourself. He is surprised, you’ve put him off balance. Good. There between the fence and you, alone on the roof.

“I understand you’re hurting now...and may hurt later...so let me help you with those burdens,” you say with an earnest want as you meet his shocked gaze with soft wanting, “Please Koi-chan...lets trust my insight,”

“C-Chiba-san!?” he’s confused.

Jesus, where do you want me to start, the time the fucking ranger seduced The Raven Queen, the time I, the sword-mage, dueled a vampire lord to the death on a rain-slick prescience that may or may not have hung out over a pool of bubbling darkness, wearing nothing but clown shoes and an eye patch and wielding an over-large candy-cane, or when our border-line autistic wizard (IC no OOC) challenged Orcus to a rock-off and won.

No no, they were all epic tales in their own right, and that was just one campaign. Then there was Oceans 13 Inner Sea edition, the time our Cleric-Rogue falcon punched an advanced lightning elemental Behir to death, oh man, who can forget Beron the Riding Pug, then there was the time where it was like "No party, you are the secret police", and then there was the time where I had to start a list of feats that my fighter was no longer allowed to take. The list goes on and on.

“Trust it!” you declare as you loosen your grip on the fence and plant both of your hands on either side beside him.

If this were in the corner, you could use your feet as well and perfectly cut off his avenues of possible escape. You’ll have to trust this. You’ve put your heart on the line, so now it is up to Koito. Letting the soft warmth of your stare transition into an intensity and expectancy to of your feelings.

You stare into his eyes, intently, for a few moments. Koito looks at you blankly like a deer caught in headlights. At least you are confident that he has forgotten his worry and melancholy at this morning’s early business.

He makes no move, but you hold steady.

You hold.

...and hold.

What kind of teenage boy is he? Its obvious he at least likes you, so why isn’t he jumping at the opportunity. You hum and puff your cheeks out in frustration.

It occurs to you that perhaps you’ve come on too strong. Chainlink chimes as you release it on either side and step back to the bench. Picking up the Koito’s personal thermos, you pour him a cap full and return to your usual demeanor. With a warm smile you offer him the warm drink. Still no response. More than that, he’s staring at where you were instead of where you are.
>>
>>38506426

Oh...it would appear that your declaration may have stunned the poor boy. With an upset sigh, you resolve to wait this out. Taking the thermos he brought for you, you down your poured cap and then drink down the container proper before starting on the rice balls and sandwich your mother left for you.

After a moment, he snaps out of this stupor. His face is consumed with redness and embarrassment as he regards you with sudden...sight is the best way to think of describing it. Like he’s looking at you openly for the first time.

You’ve seen him looking at you before, but never this wide eyed. Never this absolutely aware.

“Y-You...too tall klutz,” he stutters the familiar tease in disbelief, “What was that about?”

His blush and stammering are all you need, for the time being, so you smile.

It assuages your own worries, at least for now.

The Koyomi bowl kickoff.

The girl has made a strong opening bid for the contender she's known the longest. Her best friend's brother.

Let's go to the board and see what he's got

Tsundere, a classic, let's see how it holds up against the declarative nature of this last exchange
Great Cook, a sure fire path to a bunny heart. Through her stomach.

We'll pull stats on his competition later.

I wonder what else Koito was sad about?

Could it have been a dinner between friends at his family's cafe!
>>
>>38510583
Maybe its because he knows something is wrong with his family and everyone has been holding out on him.
>>
>>38511097
So, in short. The girl he's Tsun for just made a move on him that blindsided him. The Senpai he pines for was baiting a reaction from him last night with another guy, and his mom and sis are about to drop the Senshi bomb on him.

...it is not a good day to be Koito.

But that 20 we rolled must be good for something

>The Senpai he pines for was baiting a reaction from him last night with another guy

Wait, was that koito we baited or yoshi?

>>38511930
Not us, Kairi. On her date with Gai.
>>
>>38512093
I dont even remember when that was, even though I remember her setting up the not-date
>>
>>38512284
It would have been in game yesterday.
>>
>>38512093
I thought it was poignantly NOT a date.

It was totally a date.

Kairi is coming back out of her shell and she is a manipulative girl. Just like how she tried to ply us and force our hand by holding herself hostage.

She may be in the lead for waifu, and she may be dependent on our power as though it were a drug, and she may have absolute faith and trust in us...

but should we have the same in her?
>>
>>38512627
>should we trust the person who has demonstrated that they would die for us?
Gee, let me think...

I'm amused by the way Koyomi is developing. She's not just mini-Usagi anymore, she is - relatively - a lady of action to Usagi's crybaby. Even if that action is just running away.
>>
>>38512927
And given that we're a Sailor Moon story...

when the final push to the end happens...

Everyone dies, but it'll be okay

She is a lady of many actions.

Lasering things in the face. Healing things. Thinking of how to win. Running away. Pursuing potential love.

Koyomi is kinda scary, even if she is a little bit dense.

Going to admit this now about over the wall.

Accepting your fate would have gotten Koyomi in not so much trouble. It would have been a demerit but no hall time.

Cheese it did make things worse and lead to her having to stand in the hall for her trouble.

I figured. Usagi would have cried and got away with it most likely.

running wasnt exactly "love and justice". But it WAS funny and that and her oddly brave and agressive pursuit of Koito did much to define Kanari as her own character in my head, rather than her being just mini Usagi

Now the question is, will Koyomi be as agressive with Gai and Yeon, or does she believe she'll stick to one guy.

Some day, you'll find out. This is what life is all about. You'll meet someone who is living just for you. One guy. Not two or three, that's the way it should be.

There is a palace on the moon, or at least the remains of one. However, it has nothing to do with Dracula.

You're right though, it can't be on the moon. because the moon seems to always be behind it.

Somewhere is probably a Dracula Castle, but it's a variable thing of myth.
