UN: dreamycute

[eyesontherice]

[The video feed pops up and young girl can be seen sitting at a desk that has been extensively decorated with bows and stars. A pink rice cooker is placed on the desk as well.]

It's dreamy nice to meet you! I'm Yui Yumekawa and I just arrived here from Japan.

I'm making dreamy cute yumeprika rice balls right now, so come over to Lumière room 303 if you want some!

Wait, do these dorms also have rules against eating in your room?
[Her thoughts seem to drift off and she starts mumbling to herself.]
Oh no, we might end up having a forbidden rice friendship... But what if we're found out one day because I leave a rice grain trail and we'll be separated forever... Ahh, I'll never forget about all the rice balls we shared!!

The rice is cooked. [A robotic voice comes from the blue rice cooker and Yui comes back to reality.]

Here we go! See you dreamy soon~

[The feed ends. If you enter Lumière's third floor you'll be greeted by the smell of rice and anyone who comes into Yui's room will be greeted by a mountain of rice balls.]

Comments

[eyesontherice]

[Yui opens the door, holding the rice ball she just finished making in one hand]

My very first visitor!!
Yes, that was me. Come in and have some dreamy rice!

[stavros]

My thanks. [She nods and comes in, removing her shoes at the door.] I must say, it's a good way to make friends when you come here at the end of the year.

[eyesontherice]

[Many rice balls decorated with heart and star shaped pieces of nori have been stacked on the desk, resembling some kind of rice ball shrine, but cute.]

I really hope I can make a lot of friends soon! It's such a dreamy cute school in such a dreamy cute town!! It would be a waste to not have many dreamy friendships as well.

That said, I hope we can become friends, too!

[She hands Kokoro one of the many rice balls.]

[stavros]

[Kokoro takes one and starts eating it without a care.]

You have my gratitude. My name is Kokoro Belmont. I know not about the school being... cute or dreamy, but yes, a good many people here are happy to befriend new arrivals. I've only been back from assignment about a year, but it feels like a good deal longer; then again, I used to attend here as a child, too.

[eyesontherice]

At least it looks like something out of a fairy tale and and if I dreamy do my best I believe I can make it dreamy as well!!
[Things may not seem sunshine and rainbows but she will paint them anyway.]

So you've already been on a mission?
You must really know a lot if you've been here for so long.

[stavros]

Multiple. I'm unsure if I know a lot, but I do my best in all endeavours. My family's legacy is a great expectation. You're new to the supernatural, I take it, then. A lot of our newer students are Candles, so they're in the same boat.

[eyesontherice]

Yeah, I've lived a perfectly ordinary life until recently. It was a dreamy shock when I suddenly had powers! It still kinda feels like I'm daydreaming.
[Content wise it would fit with many of her daydreams but she can't have been spacing out for this long, right?]

So you're not a Candle?

[stavros]

[She shakes her head.]

I am not. I come from an old Hunter clan; I have a few bloodline abilities, but not true Radiance. I do also have a Rune Armour, but I don't always use it. I must say it has been a bit of a shock to have so many civilians.

[eyesontherice]

[So many words Yui's heard a bit about but she can't really grasp the meaning of them all yet.]

Wow, you're a expert then! I'll try my dreaming best to learn as much as possible, too!

Umm, can I ask what your abilities are?

[stavros]

My abilities outside of weapons and Rune Armour training? Well, there's one attack -- historically it's called a Grand Cross, but mine goes the wrong way, so I've called it a Lightning Sword. A cross beam with holy capabilities. I wouldn't do that indoors. ...And a few months ago, we were in a castle where some of the doors would open with my blood? But I wouldn't call that an ability, it was more of a spell on the door. Some things will recognize me as a member of my family, like alchemic weapons and such that were built for that. But most of what I do is fight using weapons or my Rune Armour.

[eyesontherice]

[More confusing words but but she's impressed nevertheless. She doesn't really know where to start asking but one thing sticks out a bit too much-]

THE DOORS OPENED WITH YOUR BLOOD?!
That's dreamy scary... How did your blood get on it in the first place?!

[stavros]

I pricked my finger? I mean, there was an inscription, and I knew from old family stories it might be a possibility... are you quite okay?

[eyesontherice]

A-ah, um, yes, I'm okay. [Apparently that one didn't fit her daydreams.]

I'm sorry, all of this is just so new to me.
But I'll give my dreamy best to get used to it!

[stavros]

Worry not! It's not something you have to deal with!

[Maybe she was a bit too open...]

[eyesontherice]

But I want to be able to help out, too!

[What else would you even get powers for if not to be a dreamy hero?]

[stavros]

And you will, and I applaud you for that. Perhaps... how do I put it. Become your own kind of hero rather than worry about the tales of others? Then again, I am far from the person who should be giving that advice... at all.

[eyesontherice]

You're dreamy right, thank you, Kokoro!
Does that mean you worry about not being good enough, too? Even though you already know so much...

[Oh no, she did mention a bloodline! What mysteries could be hidden there; was she raised as a boy because she was the only heir? Or because her brother sacrificed himself in a battle? Yui's thoughts drift off to make up a full-fledged backstory for Kokoro...]

You've been through so much but you're still so kind to a rookie like me!

[stavros]

[Kokoro turns pink and looks away, flustered.]

Yes, well. That may be true, but we are both students, are we not? We all must strive our hardest for the sake of all creation.
