halfemptyglasses: partial picture of Mirai's face with her name below (glasses of doom)
[personal profile] halfemptyglasses
Mirai stands before the door, her courage sufficiently mustered to try life again.

Most of her things remain up in her room, a more certain safety than whatever waits on the other side. She holds a smaller bag of a few clothes and other small essentials on her shoulder, a warm winter coat swallowing her up. Her hand curves around the doorknob and pulls it open quick before she loses her nerve.

But once she steps through to the other side, her phone chirps. She digs in her pocket, fingers trembling. She clicks open the new text and, upon reading it, steps backwards into the bar once more. She crouches down close to the floor and cups the phone in her hands, the February air chilling her fingers as she reads the words over and over.

The Nase family knows she left.

Kaworu is pretty happy today when he enters the bar. He is happy enough that he heads straight for the piano, wanting to express these feelings for the bar in a way that may make them happy too. He sits at the piano bench and starts playing an original composition, one that's both upbeat and gentle.

It's one of the compositions he wrote while thinking of Mia. When he needs a happy place, she is one of the happiest.

Kaworu has found the bar door for the second time today. He had been heading home from college, tired after a long day, but to his surprise the apartment door leads to the bar rather than a hot meal and a comfortable bed. He would be happy to see it, but he is currently carrying one Miharu Rokujo on his back, a former bar denizen who happens to be sleeping heavily, not noticing the change in scenery at all.

Kaworu can roll with the times, so he lays Miharu in a booth, sitting with him and having the waitrats bring a blanket over. It'll be hilarious when the other wakes up, as being carried sleeping into the bar is a fine way to re-enter it.

But until then, this angel is completely and utterly bored with nobody to entertain him.

Once upon a time, there was an angel that populated the bar. And once upon a time, he lost the bar door for four whole years.

He moved to another universe, one he was not dead in. He never expected to find the bar door again. And yet when Kaworu heads to school today, the door to his classroom changes into the door to the bar. He's surprised to find it, he's shocked. He stands in the entrance with a wide eyed look on his face. And he doesn't. move.

Someone may need to help him break out of it, because otherwise he's going to stay right there with one foot in the bar and one foot in his own reality.

Mia is sitting in a booth with Cepheus snuggled next to her. Ever since she and Draco have started telling people they're expecting another baby, Cepheus has been reluctant to leave either of his parents alone.

Perhaps he's trying to change their minds?

He's not the only one surprised by the news. When Mia told her council, some of them raised their eyebrows and one of them even made mention that they "didn't know Majesty Mia was that way" and that it was ridiculous for them to be worried about the time before Cepheus was born. Mia just rolled her eyes along with Nash, who has long since learned that the Guildmaster is just another person.

She's enjoying some downtime in Milliways to be privately excited about the matter. She's wondered if it's just her imagination but some of her clothes are already starting to feel tighter. In any case, it's just made her all the happier.

Mia listens as Cepheus talks and occasionally sings to her. But mostly the child is just burrowed close to his mother.

Sometimes, it's really tough being a mom.

Weekends are usually more restful at the Magic Guild. Cepheus, however, has caught a bug from some student or other and has been sick today. Or he's somehow had an overabundance of sweets and his digestion is making him and his parents pay for it. It's sometimes hard to keep track of sneaky wizard children, even if you're a witch yourself.

Mia's been up since 5 a.m. tending to him and is happy to find Milliways. Concerned as she is for her child, time won't pass here, meaning she can afford to have a break.

When she sits at the bar, she's greeted by a grog loaf sandwich and an unusual-looking pickle spear. She picks the pickle up, looks at how green the skin is, and gives it an experimental bite.

A smile spreads on her exhausted face and she goes, "This is pickled Salyan cactus, isn't it?"

The bar answers back with a napkin of confirmation.

"I've had it before but I've forgotten how good it is. Thank you for reminding me."

Anyone else want to try?

There is a Kaworu in the bar, sitting in an out of the way booth. It is out of the way enough that it is even a little dusty, but he doesn't really care. He's far more concerned with a large book he is flipping through. It seems to be a large textbook of some sorts.

Whatever it is has him looking visibly confused. The boy doesn't have school or homework, so what could he possibly be studying?

OOM: What's this? It is a small illustration of the drawbacks of being violent.

Accompanied by a lesson: withdrawal can lead into some very interesting and wonderful ends, indeed.

No matter how many medicines you take, no matter how many good days you have, for people like Kaworu and Rei there will be bad ones. Ones that bring immunity to a medication or a virus that requires stopping medication as to let the body heal. Kaworu has no idea which of these it is today, he can ask Rei to help him figure it out later.(Ask Rei! The idea is so novel and so encouraging all at once)!

In the meantime, he'll just be outside on the grass, with somewhat of a fever. He's going to be completely lazy today. He's probably earned it.

[OOM: Nesting]

While Mia is busy cleaning, she doesn't notice that the door to Milliways is open a crack...

[ooc: Feel free to have your character come visit Mia in Vane by tagging the OOM or tag here if you want to drag Mia into the bar for a break. Class is starting soon, so most answers will probably be in the evening, but I'm around for a little now to start before croissant-related slowtime. Back!]
