[Midlandia] Just One Note

[gunslingerqueen]

[A series of events occurred which were incredibly important and ultimately life changing.

But frankly her attention span was always rather limited. What really mattered above all else was that she and Nathan were free, and it didn't require Vergil's scolding or leaving the country. They had been adopted into this pack with considerably minimal fuss. They had a roof, food, and a way to get to and from school. The best part was that there was no one to hit her anymore, no more getting thrown left and right into walls or furniture, and Nathan no longer had to hear all the yelling and insults. They could be living in a high class sewer and Nariko would still be happy.

And while she'd made her gratuity very clear to the Alpha she's been otherwise quite normal! Nariko had survived the state of things because she knew how to control herself, how to present properly. So ever since they'd been given their space she'd gone about meeting everyone she could, being both agreeable and fun, while Nathan clung to her side the whole time.

Lately, though, he's been feeling a little more like himself. On this particular day she's sprawled all over the couch while Nathan watches some movie directly in front of her. If she's supposed to give a single crap about her tiny shorts or tank top then ... Actually, no, why would she? It hasn't occurred to Nariko to dress or act differently, especially because there's so many women. Besides, she's kind of idly watching it with him or occasionally toying with her phone, and really she'd practically beg for something fun to do. Ugh.]

[ And her mirror? Masaomi snorts again at this, and soon enough both Mikado and him are laughing even as the one with glasses rummages around for the purse that Masaomi had brought into the little cubbie they're in to begin with. And he shakes his head, reaching around for napkins... ]

Hahaha, jerks? Jerks.

[ Oh well though - let's get them out and her little compact, as they both sit back a little to get in position ]

[gunslingerqueen]

[Her eyes roll even though she's not entirely sure what that response even was.]

Thank you.

[They can get in position while she wipes her face rather efficiently, and groans a little bit. She's ... A mess ... And it's so unpleasant to see herself like this now that the moment is done and over with. It's fine, of course, she reapplies her makeup like a pro, because that's what backup concealer is for!]

Okay, I'll go down first!

[Everything goes back in her purse, she zips it back up, and then makes to ride down the slide!]

[generalflirt]

Just like that, huh?

[ Masaomi mutters that, having scooted up next to Mikado as he tries to get his clothing back in place when it was obvious that she meant to try to make herself look normal to continue the date or whatever. Both boys had no words for each other, just sort of collecting their breath and making ready to go out and ... whatever was needed.

That said, Mikado nods and with his glasses back on, smiles a bit as he scoots behind her, intending to (but too late to) wrap his arms behind her. He does go down the slide moments after her though. ]

Second!

[gunslingerqueen]

[... Going down together would have been so cute!!! It's too bad she's never done that before or else she wouldn't have just thought he was lining up behind her normally. Oh well.

Nariko gets to the bottom first and gets up so that she and Mikado don't crash but then she stumbles a little and braces against one of the posts that holds up the monkey bars.]

Uh.

[Masaomi came in her so it's. Not staying, ah, in there and the best thing she can think to do is cross her legs kind of awkwardly.

She did not think this through at all.]

[generalflirt]

[ Condoms would have been smarter.

Still, as Mikado gets to the bottom he starts to say something apologetic to her for nearly bumping into her, and he might have even taken notice of the little issue she was having - but the boy behind the one in glasses goes down next, and with Mikado slower to move, ends up crashing into him and making them both pile up on the ground below her ]

Geronimo!!

[gunslingerqueen]

[Look no one told her that condoms actually had a use other than to stop people from getting diseases or having kids! And usually when she has sex in public it's nighttime so no one can see any gross stains before she gets somewhere to change!!!!]

Geez, you guys.

[She can't bend over or even kneel, Nariko has to sort of sideways lean to get a hold of Masaomi to try and get him up off of Mikado.]

I don't think it has to be over just because we had sex but now I don't know what we're supposed to do. It's like kissing in the middle instead of the end! What are you supposed to do when you've already hit the apex of the whole thing?]

[generalflirt]

[ The apex of the whole thing. Masaomi seems to be thoughtful here for a moment as he sits there largely atop Mikado before he lets himself be pulled off. And he provides, helpfully, ]

More sex?

[ Mikado, though -- ] Don't be a jerk, Masaomi. Come on!

I kid, I kid!

[ And pulled up and spinning to his feet, Masami tries to pull Nariko even even as he tries to pull Mikado to standing, smiling as he pulls them closer together. What indeed ]

Well, we can go see a movie or just hang out on the town - not like NariNari knows every little thing.

I'm gross laughing at this and Masaomi and Audrey this is amazing

[gunslingerqueen]

[All of those things require walking and movement which is not going to be her best trait for the time being.]

Both of those sound good! [Masaomi's shoulder is clapped.] How about you and Mikado talk that out while I go ....

[Where can she try to deal with this with some lingering amount of dignity? There's no bathroom in sight and she can't walk far ...]

Over there!

[She's pointing not too far off to some benches. There's no cover, but there's also no one over there, so she can try to look like she's just cleaning a part of her dress or something???? God, she doesn't know it's just weird to hold what feels like a gallon of cum in her body.]

Rofl we really have some silly threads right now it's amazing

[generalflirt]

[ . . . Well. ]

Uh, sure?

Okay?

[ Apparently, both boys are dense in this moment. Dense, and as soon as she walks off, them trying not to stare at her as she does... a little bit stupid. Because when they face each other again, Masaomi intending to propose where they should go, both get lost on each other's lips, blush, and look away from each other. It's Mikado that looks past first, tugging on Masaomi's arm and insisting they really should make a plan. And then they begin to do that, trying not to glance over at their mutual date ]

it so is

[gunslingerqueen]

[Nariko has to walk in a very calculated, but short manner and it's just ... A challenge. She's barely out of ear shot of them and it seems to take an eternity. When she gets there her back is turned to them, and it's an incredible relief that no one is running/walking the trail she ends up facing. So, uh, yeah, while they have their moment she's going to bust out those napkins again to get between her legs.

From their angle it's really going to look like exactly what it isn't.

... This is all very embarrassing ... Don't mind her ... Please don't mind her.]

[generalflirt]

[ They don't.

Mostly.

Mikado looks and yelps a little as his eyes almost make eye contact with her, but he looks away just as quick and then places his hands on either wide of Masaomi's head to prevent him from looking. Shifting their conversation over to the first thing that came to mind, which was cupcakes.

... Bro ]

[gunslingerqueen]

[Maybe they could get cupcakes for dessert??

But, yeah, it takes up the rest of her napkins but she mostly cleans the mess between her legs, and there's a sizable pile of stained, white tissue on the park bench.]

Thank goodness.

[At least she can stop tensing her legs so fucking much now. She gathers up the mess and dumps it all in the trash bag, pretending her face doesn't feel irreparably hot by the time she makes it back to them.]

So! What's the verdict?

[generalflirt]

Cupcakes, apparently!

[ Mikado shoves a hand in Masaomi's face, pushing it away and looking sheepish and red in the face over at Nariko, ]

N-no, we don't need to eat more! But we could hang out, or go to the school...

[ By now, the other boy pushes out of the hand on his cheeks to grin and slide back to getting his arm around Nariko. ]

Why would we go to the school?

It's in the town, Masaomi. We were showing her around!

[gunslingerqueen]

[Why was Mikado a mess? Had Masaomi been teasing him again? Hm. Well, either way, she tilts her head and leans into Masaomi's hold a bit instinctively.]

I sort of hate to agree there, but I'll probably see a lot of the school over the next few weeks. [And it is a date, so she doesn't really want to waste it on school.]

Are there any music stores nearby?

[Do they have to take the bus to get anywhere serious or was it all in walking distance?? These are things she does not know.]

[generalflirt]

Ummmm.... probably?

[ That's Masaomi's reply, grinning a little when she leans into the lean, and sticking his tongue out nominally to think but also to spite Mikado a bit. the shorter boy huffs, and then reaches out to grab Nariko's hand with his own, giving it a firm squeeze with a good show off determination.

Shot down. ]

I think there's one on Cherry?

Oh... Oh yeah, next to the antique place?

[ and Mikado nods ]

[gunslingerqueen]

[Are they having some kind of affection contest? If so, it's not as if she notices, or if she does she's being awfully fair about it. When Mikado takes her hand she ends up threading their arms together and pulling him closer so that she can kiss his cheek, but she doesn't leave Masaomi's hold, either.]

Is that far off?

[It's not like she's afraid of walking but the intensely physical dates should come later.]

I guess we could also just exchange the gifts, too.

[But that might make it feel even more like the end than fucking around did.]

[generalflirt]

Not really.

Probably about... a little less than half a mile, right?

Yeah, the whole neighborhood's pretty dense, so unless you need to leave it for whatever reason you can walk pretty much anywhere and it'll be within less than two miles.

[ Masaomi nods sagely, and giving her another squeeze, he turns a bit sheepish. The gifts, huh? Oh well. ]

But the gifts seem like an end point, let's live it up first!

[ Or something! ]

[gunslingerqueen]

[A half mile or less, that could definitely be worse.]

Okay! We can go there, then!

[And she'll get to look at guitars!! Now that they have a goal in mind she's expecting one or both of them to lead, once she's got a vague sense of her new home then it'll be easy to direct herself but right now Nariko would just get lost if she tried to guide herself or run ahead.

So onward, boyfriends!]

[generalflirt]

[ And so they picked the destination. Both boys squeeze her and nod up until she lightly pushes them, which sees Masaomi laughing a little and Mikado blushing a bit deeper before the taller boy pumps bis arm and declares, ]

Adventure... ho!

[ And their off! Both boys know where they're going but neither is really leading, instead just sort of walking with both of them holding on to one of her arms. they're both grinning for the moment ]

S-so are you okay, Nariko?

[gunslingerqueen]

[It's easy to remain in step with them, and for a small while there Nariko is content to look around, giving the park a somewhat mournful stare. It already has a bunch of memories! Ahh, well, they'll come back some other time, and it's not far from the house at all.

Mikado's question throws her off a little, though she manages to look perfectly even enough. ... Does he ... Is he asking because of earlier ...]

Ahhh, yep! Better than okay!

[About the cum issue, at least.]

[generalflirt]

A-a-a-ah! That's-- good. Yeah!

[ .. .. Well that's something Masaomi can't help but lok at him in a suspect about. Still, he grins and, ]

So was our kiss what you wanted, NariNari?

[gunslingerqueen]

[...... He knew. Nariko glues her eyes to the pavement as they walk, at least until Masaomi poses that really important question.]

Yes.

[She looks at them both though, and whether it's terribly insensitive or awful of her she just asks the question.]

Were you two already together?

[generalflirt]

[ Mikado did know. It's... pretty stressful, knowing what happened back there. Not that he knows what it was per se, or at least he didn't connect it. He collects himself, wanting to say something else until Nariko blindsides them. They both blink, and then answer in relative unison. ]

Nope.

Not really.

[ Masaomi seems content to leave it at that, but Mikado goes on with, ]

I mean, we may or may not be brothers, so we never... bothered or anything?

[gunslingerqueen]

It's different with boys though, so it's not as much of a problem, right?

[Either way, it's not something she'll poke at too much, though she does tap her fingers along Mikado where they're joined. It's a nervous habit.]

I was actually pretty jealous. If you think about a kiss that's supposed to mean something, that's special because of who you're sharing it with ... Then that's the sort of image I have.

[Not just that, of course, it was the feeling of it all, and a part of it was the intense situation but it's harder to put all that into words.]

[generalflirt]

[ Mikado is confused - why would she be jealous? It's a confusion that Masaomi shares to some extent, and he keeps a silent, appraising eye on both of his dates. It's strange to think of Mikado like that if he's honest, but it was the scene he wrote for them. Everything was operating more or less at the pace her prescribed... so. He might as well embrace it, right? It's largely for that he allows Mikado to answer it in the first place. ]

I-- I mean? I -- maybe? I'm not really sure what you mean... or that it was that big of a deal...? To be jealous about? That just sounds like you're under-selling yourself?

[ and of course Mikado would be a straight-shooter. Masaomi snorts, and as they continue the march up and out of the park (under a different entrance than they came in) Masaomi grips Nariko's hand harder, spins in place (pulling them both with him) and then makes to get himself tangled up in Nariko, their bound hands up in the air and his other arm around her waist as he leans his face in close to hers ]

NariNari. I think I'm starting to really like you.
