Model Idol Combi: there's always that first date

[jitensha]

[ Makoto had heard it on the highest authority (Miki) that girls should always be fashionably late to their dates. It left the guy 'frothing with desire', or something like that. And she'd dwelt on it, she really had, even as she sifted through her closet for the sixth time.

Makoto has always been Makoto, though, and that meant she didn't feel right purposely taking her time. It's why she's waiting near the entrance-- has been waiting for ten minutes with the long black skirt and the white shirt with the artfully placed frills and the red heels that click so cutely when she walks. It's a far cry from the jeans and sweatshirts she usually runs around in.

But she'd like to think it's not bad. ]

[Oh god they're going to just end up swinging their arms like little kids forever.]

Hmm, Armless-san said that you weren't moving from your spot... But I'll believe you, since it's you.

[jitensha]

... I had to regain my bearings.

[ she's pouting. A little. ]

[ex_doubly406]

Right right, you don't need to explain, I said that I believe you!

[jitensha]

Just... so you know. [ and yes, she's toeing the ground as the whole being in line thing happens. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[Wow, toeing the ground, swinging their arms... Are they elementary school students???]

Roger, Makocchi's really brave. [And yes, they're probably at the front again at this point, so they can be absolute giggly dorks on the ride.]

[jitensha]

[ on the most kawaii date!!!

BECAUSE THEY SURE AREN'T ACTING MATURE ABOUT GOING ON THIS THING AGAIN. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[NOPE, NEVER. LAUGHING ALL THE WAY, PUTTING THEIR HANDS UP, GETTING WAY TOO EXCITED BEFORE FAST TURNS.

... And it's over, they're out, but he's still laughing.]

That's really good, doesn't that just wake you up?

[jitensha]

It'd be nice if you could do that every morning as part of a wake-up routine! It really gets you energetic.

[ ... yep she couldn't be more chipper, though the second time around, she's a tad wobbly for the first few steps. They're dizzying things, coasters. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[So long as she's not about to trip... He'll catch her if she does though.]

Right after a morning run? I guess it would get you pumped up, but it's not like you can find one lying around.

[jitensha]

Probably not... [ she looks a little disappointed, though the look soon vanishes as her pace evens out. ] But I guess that's what makes it a treat!

[ex_doubly406]

Exactly~ Makocchi's really good at keeping the mood up! [Something else to be thankful for.] So what did you want to do now? Want to go on one more time?

[jitensha]

Actually, do you mind taking a detour for the game stands? We can always come back to this, but playing's easier while the light's still good.

[ex_doubly406]

Ah, sure, we can get something to eat too.

[He turns in the direction of the game stands, but he'll keep letting her lead him for now.]

[jitensha]

[ she'll rummage for the map then, so no hand-holding while she's unfolding it and studying it intently while they're walking. Thankfully, she's got a good enough sense of direction or balance that she isn't colliding with anybody. ]

They're really close to each other... which one did you want to do first?

[ex_doubly406]

[Oh good, though he'll kind of hover behind because even if she's a good runner in heels, tripping in heels is probably not fun.]

Hmm, maybe games? It's better to eat after you've used up some energy. [As if they haven't been using a ton of energy already.] But it's your choice today so I'm okay with whatever!

[jitensha]

[ Makoto lifts her eyes from the map, coming to a stop long enough to lift an arm up and back and bump his forehead with her fist. ]

I want you to have fun, too! Games are a good idea.

[ex_doubly406]

[Ow.

No not really, it didn't hurt, but he'll rub the spot anyway as he keeps up that same distance between them.]

I don't think I said anything wrong though, I meant it when I said you're the princess today!

[jitensha]

Then, as the princess, I royally decree-- [ with the arrogant tone and everything; she's very good at impersonating Iori, it seems. ] that we'll both have a say in how things go today!

[ex_doubly406]

[Ahaha... That's not bad]

You're not making this easy for me. I guess I have no choice then.

[jitensha]

I believe in you!

[ guys, this is about playing games. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[OR IS IT.]

I think we're talking about different things here...

[However, before she can say anything about that, he's taken a hold of her shoulders and starts pushing her toward wherever he thinks the games are.]

But an order's an order! Let's go!

[jitensha]

I'm going, I'm going!

[ this is the most romantic date ever. Getting guided by the shoulders over to the game booths. ]

[ex_doubly406]

[So romantic, what girl wouldn't be swooning.

But okay no, things will take a more romantic turn as when they get there, the first thing Kise says is:]

Which one do you want? I'll get any prize for you.

[jitensha]

Eh-- any? [ but oh no all the stuffed animals are REALLY CUTE... cue an indecisive fluster. ]

[ex_doubly406]

Yep, any! Just name it!

[He'll wait! Though he's obviously raring to go.]
