Soulfasting Concert for Charity

[my_father_is_a_tycoon]

Who: Lenna Charlotte Tycoon, the Kagamine twins, and open invite for all
What: A Soulfast-themed charity concert and dance
When: Sunday night
Where: The Tycoon family estate
Summary: Lenna is hosting a charity event to benefit Union's poor and homeless population, along with refugees from war-torn communities outside Union's walls and people who are moving into the city but need some help while they get on their feet.  The entire city is invited, and donations are not required but are strongly encouraged in the form of Lenna smiling and making big moe eyes at everyone as they enter until they do.

[It's the beginning of the Soulfasting holiday, and despite the complications with Cresselia and Darkrai, Lenna has miraculously managed to pull together the final preparations for her charity event at the last minute.  The party itself is being held at the Tycoon mansion in the noble quarter, and the doors have been opened for any and all who wish to come and make merry.

The spacious foyer of the house has been set up with numerous tables with food and drink for the various attendees, plenty of room for dancing and mingling, and of course a large stage at the front of the room set up for Rin and Len Kagamine - Lenna's roommates and the headline performing act of the night.  There are donation boxes situated around the room, and Lenna will also be accepting larger donations personally so that she can secure them elsewhere in the house.

And because of the time of year, there is also a table set up with plenty of Pokemon-themed masks for people to wear, with a fancy sign hand written in calligraphy: 'Courtesy of the Tatsumi Gallery.'  Lenna herself is wearing a short red party dress with matching heels, greeting everyone as they enter and more or less just buzzing about making sure everyone is having a good time.]

A boyfriend?

[Even though she barely raises her voice it's clear that the young bird is most startled by the assumption. Her cheeks heat up so much that she reaches for them, rubbing slightly on the rosy surface.]

D-do I seem like that kind of mature woman? I don't have anyone like that...

[psychicsister]

...No. I just...thought maybe you had one?

[Yakumo blushes, blinking in surprise.]

Because...you're so pretty and outgoing. I just...thought...

[unbalancedlove]

[The compliments only make her blush even more.]

I-I have yet to fall for someone but... I'm really glad you think so highly of me.

[psychicsister]

Well, of course. I mean...I hope you find someone though. You deserve it.

[Though, the topic is a little embarrassing for someone who has fallen for someone else...]

[unbalancedlove]

Hehehe, hopefully! But love is not something you can hurry, I think.

[It'll get even more embarrassing from now.]

Do you have a boyfriend, Yakumo?

[psychicsister]

M-Me?!

[She seems startled, waving a hand in an emphatic no.]

No, no...I don't.

[unbalancedlove]

Really?

[So the blonde man from earlier wasn't her boyfriend?]

[psychicsister]

Really. Why...did you think I had one?

[unbalancedlove]

Eh? Well, I saw someone that looked like you dancing with a blond gentleman earlier so I thought...

[Important fact: she saw that with Harima]

[psychicsister]

Oh! Well...that...was actually a woman. Haruka Tenoh, an actress from the theater. She asked me to dance, so I said yes.

[unbalancedlove]

[Blink.]

So she is your girlfriend?

[psychicsister]

[Eyes go wide in confusion.]

No! I...just met her tonight.

[unbalancedlove]

[The erases all chances of love triangles occurring, what a pity... oh well. Yakumo had some fun here and that's what matters.]

I see. Sorry for the weird question it's just that we don't really talk about this topic a lot, do we? romance and stuff.

[psychicsister]

No...it's...it's alright. We haven't talked about it, have we?

[Yakumo shrugs, but her cheeks turn a telling shade of pink. There is someone she likes.]

[unbalancedlove]

We haven't touched the topic at all.

[She nods, accepting the other girl's words, and launches the most dangerous question for Yakumo's heart.]

Then! Are you in love with anyone?

[psychicsister]

...

[Yakumo's face turns bright red.]

......

[She...doesn't answer. does that give you any idea, Kotori?]

This expression really fits so

[unbalancedlove]

... !



[Oh god, she is! a certain pair of golden eyes sparkle in excitement even through her surprise.]

It does!

[psychicsister]

[Yakumo's blush deepens and she looks down at the table.]

A...ahhh...

[unbalancedlove]

[A gentle hand reaches for Yakumo's carefully with a soft and careful grasp that allows resistance from the other side. Will it transmit some reassurance to the other girl better than her words? the mood tells it's an important moment for them as friends.]

I'll listen if you want to share anything.

Having fallen in love... if it's bittersweet we can share the bitter side together. We are friends after all!

[psychicsister]

[Yakumo looks at Kotori with wide eyes and smiles softly.]

It's...not bittersweet. I just...I haven't told him how I feel yet. I haven't told anyone, honestly. It just hasn't come up.

[unbalancedlove]

I see, it's a bit hard to talk about these topics even if it does come up, isn't it?

[She would be as embarrassed as her friend is now after all.]

What kind of person is he?

[psychicsister]

[She nods and looks down at the table.]

He's very kind. But he doesn't...like...people much. Just some. And he's a little dramatic, sometimes. But I like that, you know?

[unbalancedlove]

[A kind man... That does seem like the kind of person that would fit by Yakumo's side.]

So he has lots of imagination? Is he artistic?

[psychicsister]

Yes. He's...an aspiring artist, actually.

[unbalancedlove]

Oooh, maybe supporting him is the path to his heart? Have you tried helping him with art stuff?
