ruby . Sorry for the inactivity. After some things and some self-realization, my mental health has been on a decline and I had to step away. Not yet sure about my activity, but chances are that I’ll likely be active on here or @fallenorigin.bsky.social first before any other accounts. +

are ... you sure ? you seem like a busy person .

So, you don’t like too much crowded places? Well, that’s reasonable. We all have boundaries. Anyways, I was just here waiting for my order. We can explore the place if you want to.

What did he say ? Did he say that he WANTED to hang out with her ? When there's many other people to choose ? The surprise had her stumped on what to say , so much so that she didn't notice what he was saying until he was too close for comfort .

She should probably get home though, right? His eyes light up after and he leans in (probably too close), “But I could walk ya back least half way if you’re cool with it! Not everyday I get to meet a guitarist. You had practice?”

ruby . On one hand I feel writing dialogue on Hitori is a little dry On the other hand ... i mean look at her she barely knows what to say , i think its fitting

⠀ These were way too many questions ! It's hard for her to keep track — ! “ a-ah , it's okay ! ” Hitori reassured the maiden , with such instance reminding her of a certain member in her band . “ uh ... i play the guitar , my favorite band ... t-there's a few ... ” She may be struggling — ⠀

(Mike then noticed the girl.) Huh? Oh, yeah. This mall is a neat alternative to my old mall I used to go to. I even worked at that mall before I got fired due to an accident. What about you? Do you come here often too? I wouldn’t blame if you said yes.

⠀ “ you are a skilled cosplayer and i respect the dedication to your craft but i do not have anything for you to sign as an autograph nor any social media to follow you online to keep track of your next convention visits but i recognize the skill and detail it took for y ” What is she saying . ⠀

⠀ Nothing but the most bewildered and confused expression was adorned on the teenager's face when a force faster than lightning practically vanished before her eyes with a trail of green. She stood like a mannequin, not even blown away from the wind slamming at her face ; a jaw-dropping sce — +

- it a small strum. She cocked a brow, and gave an unsatisfied hum. Looking the thing over, it’s strings, it’s build… Buttercup realized she was no expert on the thing. But this girl… just might be. Turning to her, she gestured towards the instrument in her hands. ❝ Hey, is this thing any good? ❞

"Oh. I guess that's not you. Never mind." A sigh of relief escaped her lips, figuring the other has no clue what she's talking about. At least the reason the pinkette is acting like this isn't her fault, right? Soon, her relief turns to confusion. "What are you doing in a garbage can, then?"

⠀ ... There was an awkward pause that consisted with the two staring at each other , glasses adorned on the pink girl switching to different colors in the pause . “ 𝖨 𝗅𝗂𝗄𝖾 𝗌𝗍𝗋𝖺𝗐𝖻𝖾𝗋𝗋𝗒 , 𝗒𝗈 — 𝖻𝗎𝗍 𝖨 𝗆𝖾𝖺𝗇 𝗈𝗎𝗋 𝗆𝗎𝗌𝗂𝖼 𝗌𝖾𝗌𝗁 ! ” ⠀

ruby . Currently at work, but given how slow it is, I might have energy to reply to stuff tonight

( @yuushaclub.bsky.social ) The poker has appeared once more... ?! She is praying to the lord above , praying that she does not get poked again and popped like a balloon ... !!!

( @mercifulmedic.bsky.social ) There she was in the background , constantly throwing a glance to the reploid before averting her gaze to look elsewhere ... just to repeat and look at her again . ( 💭 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘢 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘥𝘦𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘴𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘺 . )

( @two-dents.bsky.social ) “ 𝟐𝐃 . ” The girl has appeared with ... something on her face , along with a deep voice and several other party-related items. She's trying to impress him , make it seem like she's not a social outcast — “ 𝖶𝗁𝖺𝗍 𝗍𝗂𝗆𝖾'𝗌 𝗈𝗎𝗋 𝗃𝖺𝗆 , 𝗁𝗈𝗆𝗂𝖾 ? ” ⠀

( @sleepynightguard.bsky.social ) This is the third time that she's bumped into this man in specific. Given the laws and utmost requirement of a social space, that would mean that they need to begin conversation to form an acquaintance. Eight more interactions and they must be friends. “ uh... ”

⠀ Girl would have only stopped her continuous bowing when the other had mentioned that they were looking for a guitar , sparking mild interest underneath those frightened eyes . The question is , can she interact with someone else ? “ ... guitar ? ” ⠀

- skittish, wasn’t she? More prone to crying than her own sister. Buttercup really wished she had spent less time teasing her. She might’ve had more of an idea of how to handle a situation like this. ❝ I was just lookin’ for a good guitar, that’s all! ❞

⠀ The pink haired guitarist stopped on her search only when she was told, a glance thrown back at the maiden that introduced herself . “ hitori gotoh. guitarist for kessoku band. ” ( 💭 𝘚𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘮𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯 ... ) ⠀

⠀ There came a long pause of pure silence from the two girls as their lunch ensued , Hitori swarming in her mind as to how to ... interact with someone entirely new and and environment like this . Think ... like those TV shows ! “ ... do you have ... any hobbies ? ” ⠀

⠀ Although one would take it to be a rude remark or way of calling someone, Hitori seemed to be jumping through her own head when she registered the newly - acquired nickname, showing a smile with eyes closed . ✨ ( 💭 Trash Rockstar ... he must think I'm so cool being inside a — ) ⠀

He seems pretty excited because he assumes that she remembers his face at least. Walking up to her his expression reads curious, glancing at her guitar case, but happy all the same. “I woulda called ya your real name if I knew it. It’s nice to see you again, rockstar! Sorry though, ya busy?”

The greenette would discard her snack wrapper, and then open the garbage can the other had moved to. "Hey. If you're the person I called trash on Rainbow Six Siege, I didn't mean it literally."
