ayano's theory of bruises - 9/19, 4:15PM

Ummmm

Is there anyone on here who’s like...good at make up that can help me...Like one of those instagram models or something...

I was clumsy enough to give myself a black eye, and I need to hide it from my parents so they don’t freak out or get the wrong idea…

[A picture of Ayano follows, purple and black underline her left eye--thankfully not particularly swollen. Even so, whatever she smashed into must have smashed into her pretty hard. She wears a weak, sheepish smile on her face despite the heavy bruise. If it weren't there, this would be a perfectly good Facebook profile picture, in fact.]

It’s not that bad, right? Silly me...
Maybe I should just do the emo hair thing...?

[Maybe it's a bit too telling that instead of blushing when he reaches out to poke her, she winces reflexively.]

People keep saying that to me...

[strayknight]

[That was upsetting...he never wants to see her flinch.]

...hey it's okay.

It's because you are too honest.

[kagepuro]

[She lets out a small laugh of embarrassment. Oops, that wasn't supposed to happen.]

Sorry, Ritsu, I'm just a bit jumpy, I guess.'

...Should I be less honest?

[strayknight]

[He really feels bad for her.]

It's okay.

No, it's who you are...just know I'm letting it go because you seem to want to protect the person.

[A pause.]

What kind of food do you like?

[kagepuro]

[Ayano smiles sheepishly, still kind of avoiding total eye contact.]

Gosh, it's embarrassing, but mostly like...junk food?

I like sweets...

[strayknight]

[He just smiles.]

Well...I don't think most restaurants give junk food out?
