11th Inversion [Vine/Action]

[ritsu_kouyou]

[It's a bright, beautiful day in the Gardens. The sun is shining, the birds are singing, yet the Vine shows one very soaked Akiha Tohno. In fact, it seems to be raining on Akiha, plastering her white blouse to her torso (sadly she's flat as a board so it's not like it shows anything other than the lines of her camisole) and water drips off her hair. She's also, surprise, glaring at the mirror.]

If anyone needs me, I'll be out about the Gardens today and not at the mansion.


[For anyone looking for Akiha or just crossing paths with her, she's fairy easy to spot with the little black raincloud hanging over her everywhere she goes, constantly showering her with rain.]

[grandtheftmecha]

It's not so bad at times like this.

[ Leaning in, she kisses Akiha on the forehead. ]

[ritsu_kouyou]

Mm. You are correct.

How long do you want to stay in here where it's so very warm?

[grandtheftmecha]

What, this?

[ And now that Akiha mentions it, she's all the more aware of it.

Passing out would be kind of a pain in the ass I guess, so maybe we really should get out soon.

[ritsu_kouyou]

Yes, you passing out would ruin my good mood.

[grandtheftmecha]

And I can't have that, it'd be worse than just the passing out.

[ritsu_kouyou]

Exactly.

[She turns the water off.]

Now out.

[grandtheftmecha]

[ Katina does, indeed, get out, trying not to shiver at the sudden temperature change. ]

[ritsu_kouyou]

[If Katina thinks the drop in temp is bad for her... imagine how it is for Akiha. Which explains why she immediately wraps her body in a huge towel, wraps her hair up in one and then drapes another over her shoulders.]

...you're going to stay, right?

[grandtheftmecha]

[ Grabbing a towel, she dries her hair just as ungraciously as she washed it. ]

Of course I am. [ Especially when she says it like that. ]

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Akiha slowly and carefully begins to dry herself off, throwing her fluffy robe on before working on her hair.]

Thank you.

...do you-- [She falls silent (tsuning) as she works on drying her hair.]

[grandtheftmecha]

[ Katina dries herself much more quickly, putting the robe on sloppily. ]

Eh?

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Akiha glances up, her cheeks a bit red, but then she frowns seeing that robe.]

Tch. Don't you even know how to wear a robe.

[Aaaaaaand she's going to fix it.]

[grandtheftmecha]

What, it's not like it makes a difference if my boobs are hanging out around you.

[ Jeez what are you her mom? ]

[ritsu_kouyou]

T-that's besides the point!

[grandtheftmecha]

Alright, I'll make sure I wear it properly from now on.

[ritsu_kouyou]

Good. You should only have your breasts hanging out when you're intending on taking me to bed.

[...]

W-wait, I didn't mean to say that out-- [grumble, grumble grumble, DRYING HER HAIR.]

[grandtheftmecha]

And what if that is what I had in mind?

[ Just sliiiightly tugging on her robe. ]

[ritsu_kouyou]

[NOT LOOKING. WET HAIR NEEDS TENDED TO.]

T-then that's that.

[grandtheftmecha]

But if you'd rather just, you know, cuddle a little... that's fine too.

[ritsu_kouyou]

N-no, it's okay... we can... both... If you want...

[She emerges from the towel with a red face and her hair all a mess. It really needs combed.]

[grandtheftmecha]

If you want.

[ She runs her fingers through Akiha's hair a little. ]

First let's finish this up.

[ritsu_kouyou]

You have managed to get me in the mood again...

[Partially because she's not cold and miserable anymore. She grabs the wide-toothed comb and heads back to her room.]

Will you... comb my hair out? I liked it the one time I let Kris.

[grandtheftmecha]

I wasn't even trying all that hard.

[ Katina follows, fiddling with the belt on the robe. ]

I'd be glad to, just tell me if I'm too rough or too gentle or whatever.

[ritsu_kouyou]

Quiet.

[Though she does wonder what it would be like if Katina ever did really try...]

Of course, I will. You know that. Just take it slow and work the tangles out, not pull.

[grandtheftmecha]

[ Probably less effective. ]

Right, I'm used to just tugging my hair straight when I need it under control.
