The three (point five) soldiers of the outer solar system have arrived!

[ audio ]

[ sup, everybody? Have an abortive (?) attempt at gathering news and information because somebody can’t speak candidly if her life depended on it. ]

We have been gone for a while, hm? Seeing how the place is still standing, I suppose nothing of consequence has happened.

Who are you talking to…?

[ this voice doesn’t appear to have heard that former one. ] Anyway, we’re a little behind. If someone could fill us in, we’d appreciate it.

[ another voice chimes in, though it’s not directed at the band, instead she appears to be addressing the question. ] The rest of Union, as a matter of fact. [ she pauses and then adds. ] You should say hello, Hotaru.

[ there’s a short pause. The entire city? How? ] Ah, hello? [ these people are crazy. ]

Good grief.

[ action, around Union ]

[ so, here’s a mildly bedraggled group winding their way through the streets of Union. It’s obvious from their clothing that they’ve been away for a while. Michiru and Haruka had actually managed to be away for at least a month, and while natural fabulousness can cover up almost anything, Michiru, at the very least, is counting down the minutes till she gets to soak away the (figurative) dirt of the road and take over the bathroom for at least three hours. The other two, Hotaru and Setsuna, had joined along the way... so to speak. But they still looked weary from the trip.

Alas, duty calls. Before they can get back home, they’ll need to outfit Hotaru with various necessities. Oh, and make sure she doesn’t go crazy and eat people.

...Make that a four hour soak, when Michiru finally gets back. Either way, the group’s going to be out and about the entire city for quite a bit. ]

Mmm. [ Haruka closes her eyes. She's on the brink and ready for anything. ]

[ Haruka's head snaps back, choking on a yell - it comes out anyway, a jumble of sounds that got stuck in her throat on the way out. Her body heaves up into Michiru's hand, pulse racing as stars burst in her head; her back lifts off the rim of the tub, and she stares up at the ceiling for a moment before settling down, eyes closing again. The wave's broken. Now, she drifts.

Her chest rises and falls in time to the water now splashing about both of them from the suddenness of her motions. She needs a moment. Maybe two. ]

[ To no one's surprise, it's a perfect fit. Haruka rests her head on the rim of the tub, her own hands finding Michiru's back again. Slowly, she opens her eyes, listening to the sound of both of them breathing, letting her mind skim the surface of the bath...

And almost chuckles. ]


Funny. I don't feel anxious anymore.
actsmagnificent: (fond)

[ Haruka adjusts how she's lying so she can lean her head against Michiru's. ] We'll wait and see. Together.

[ Right. They're back (for now), they achieved more than they'd expected to on their mission, and for all they know that Hotaru girl is just a victim. The world isn't ending yet. They have plenty of time to stop it, which they will. They can do anything.

Because they have each other. ]

Mn. [ "Yes" or "no" are both vague, so she'll settle for just voicing a sigh. There's no hurry to go anywhere, is there? Nope. Nothing to report that can't wait? Nope. Excellent.

Her lips touch Michiru's scalp. Maybe it's just an side-effect of the way she's got her head tilted, but maybe not. She searches for one of Michiru's hands so they can lace their fingers together. ]

[ Haruka sighs happily. As long as this water stays warm, she has no inclination of going anywhere.

Sorry, Setsuna. The bath will be occupied for a while. ]
