Pinto eased himself back on to the hospital bed, wincing from the pressure on his sore coccyx. Not that that was the part of him worst off, of course. He hoped the asshole in the other bed had been asleep while he had taken his little stroll. It was a full moon, how was he supposed to resist? A broken leg had never stopped him before… not that he was accustomed to breaking bones. 

Out of the corner of his eye, Pinto noticed a green dangly decoration with what looked (and smelled) like leppa berries stuck on. It was hanging on the frame around Vance’s bed. Pinto’s stomach growled. He quietly eased back off of the bed and crept, as well as he could, over to the decoration. He doubted Vance would mind terribly if he stole it: the guy never had any holiday cheer to begin with.

( I have not done this before, and prose is not my thing, so keep your standards low.)

Vance had been awake for hours.  Or for what felt like hours.  There were no clocks that he could see.   No bright numbers to laugh in his face, but he would guess it was about four o’clock.   He had occupied himself the last few hours alternating between staring at the ceiling, and staring at the mistletoe on his hospital bed frame that a nurse had decorated the room with.  He was not a holiday person.  The mistletoe looked garish and made the room more unpleasant than before.  At least the ceiling was nice.  All the while, he wondered how the fuck the asshole that broke his ribs had walked out of the room on a broken leg.

The door creaked open and his shitty hospital roommate walked back into the room.  Vance closed his eyes and tried to stop thinking.   He heard Pinto’s footsteps approaching his hospital bed.  He opened his eyes to see fiddling around with the mistletoe.

“What the fuck are you doing.”

“What the fuck aren’t I doing?” He replied in a whisper so the nurses wouldn’t hear, “Also I am stealing your fruity lettuce so suck it.”

Pinto pulled off the leppa berries and popped them in his mouth, chewing slowly while making eye contact with Vance. Of course, these berries were not, in fact, leppa berries, but rather the poisonous mistletoe berries that are not fit for consumption by man- most mons. The glands in Pinto’s neck started swelling almost instantly. Air flow stopped and Pinto dropped the mistletoe on to Vance’s face, his eyes bugging and red stained saliva dribbling out of his mouth.

(This is so stupid XD)

Shit shit shit.

What could he do? What could he do?  Call for help?  He called for help.  No response.  Or at least there wasn’t one coming nearly fast enough.  Chest compressions?  Chest compressions.  It was no use.  The dickwad was losing consciousness.  Oh god, what else? Pinto’s breathing was slowing.  Think think think. Was there anything he could do?  He could think of one thing.

“Oh for fuck’s sake.”

The last thing Vance wanted was for his and Pinto’s mouths to be touching.  Scratch that.  Tee last thing he wanted was the toxin to seep into his system while their mouths were touching.  Ah, but there are some things in life that are out of one’s control.

He gasped as his airway began to tighten and he grasped at his throat.  “HHHCK.” He coughed. “GHACK.”

“What on earth is going on here?”  A nurse walked into the room and saw the two bodies writhing on the floor.

(good job bruh! We can wrap this up or keep it going,  whatever you feel)

The next morning, Crimson, Jean, Teal, and [Cobalt] paid their friend and Vance a visit. The room that had, only hours before, housed both injured parties, now contained only Vance. Pinto had been moved across the hall. For some reason, neither dude would fess up as to why they were separated, but an abandoned sprig of mistletoe under Vance’s bed, were it to be found, might be found to hold the story.

Still blushing from mortification, Makoto stiffened when he realized he must’ve made the girl awkward. Good going there Makoto! And it’s only the first day of school too! Burying his head into his astronomy book, he refused to look anyone in the eye, especially the girl in the yellow hoodie. He was half attempted to ask to go to the bathroom to calm himself.

But then that would mean drawing attention to himself, which was something Makoto really didn’t want at the moment. Unfortunately, he got some anyways. “Something wrong, you two?” 

Jumping out of his seat, Makoto was startled to see Chapman-Sensei smiling above him- the teacher had heard the entire exchange.

Jikki looked up at the teacher and pulled her hoodie down,straightening her hair with clunky fingers. 

“Ah, no sir. Sorry,” she noticed Makoto’s book slide off the table while he wasn’t looking and land with a thud, “I’ll get it…" 

Jikki scooched her chair over adn bent over to lift the heavy text. Looking away from his face, she held it out to Makoto as a peace offering.

"Here… sorry I didn’t catch it before it fell…”

“Sorry I’m late, sir!” A familiar looking boy slammed open the door and bowed exuberantly to Chapman sensei, nearly knocking off his glasses which had not been on earlier, “Mori, Ami at your service!”

On a hunch, Kaede, who had been watching Jii and Makoto interact with curiosity, glanced at the name plate for her desk partner. Mori Ami. Surprise surprise.

“Oh, you don’t have to apologize.” Makoto said, flustered yet grateful at the same time. He smiled warmly at Jiji with red cheeks. She seemed like a nice girl; maybe he could be friends with her like with Kaede, maybe? “It was my fault to begin with. Sorry for startling you like that-”

Whatever thoughts he planned on awkwardly spewing out luckily was cut off by the sound of a door slamming open. And then the voice of Ami, the questionable cross dresser. Not that that was a bad thing, of course. Although Makoto was slightly worried for his ears for his next three years here. At least he wouldn’t have to worry about falling asleep in homeroom then.

Shyly, Makoto waved at Ami from his seat, glad to see another familiar, friendly face in his homeroom. And speaking of familiar faces, Makoto vaguely wondered if the poetry book student was also in this homeroom.

“Thanks. So, uh, stars, huh?” Jikki cursed her awkwardness but perservered, “I love stargazing, Kaede and I do it once in awhile… have you met her?”

Why was she even talking? Still, though, squeaky voice was better than no voice. She ignored the latecomer until he plopped down in the seat right next to Kaede. Ji noticed Makoto watching him too.

“Oh, do you know him?”

Clocktower (Tsukasa Tomiko Open Starter)

There was a good reason why Tsukasa chose the abandoned clock tower as her home. The clock hands no longer worked, drooping, hanging around 6:30 and neither did the bells.  And as for the dial, well, a good third of it must’ve been chipped off, allowing the cold breeze to fly in. In such dismal shape, it was really no wonder why no one dared to enter this place.

Still, she supposed there were other reasons why she called the clocktower home- good view of the city, lots of space, privacy. A place to call her own. Home after she hung a few wind chimes up.

That’s why, with a vicious snarl, she aimed her bo stick at the intruder who had just climbed the last step.

“What are you doing here?!”

((I know you have a thread of this with Serenasterling too but Is it okay to reply?))

It had been a rough few weeks for Styx: calls falling through, empty leads and dead ends. Rough enough for one too many drinks and a badly played brawl at a local tavern. He had come to the tower to shake off the police who were no doubt sweeping the streets around where the bar had been. 

He must be losing his edge to not have picked up on the subtle signs that the place was inhabited. Being half drunk didn’t help either, of course, but he was not one to hold to excuses. It was his own damn fault. Or luck. As chance would have it, he recognized the wielder of the  staff and grinned crookedly, raising his red hands above his head.

“Peace, peace! I beg your pardon senorita. I promise my intrusion was anything but intended!”

She glared at him, refusing to move even a muscle. Whether he meant to come here or not, it didn’t change that fact that she was being imposed on, something she really didn’t appreciate. “Don’t. Move.” She demanded, taking another step closer so that her staff was barely touching his throat.

Upon noticing his red hands and how the substance (probably blood) dripped to the floor, she raised a brow. “Whose is that? Yours or someone else’s?”

His grin only widened at her snarling question. Oh the beauty of coincidence! He didn’t move, however, judging her as a skilled fighter with reflexes that would probably crush his throat before could draw. Not that he liked fighting in such close range to begin with.

“Not moving, not moving! See? Hands in the air means harmless, eh? Don’t worry about my hands, I crushed a strawberry smoothie by accident.”

If she fell for that, he would stab her with her own staff. She had unknowingly put herself in position for such a move and, though he was loathe to fight hand to hand, he did have some necessary skill where it was concerned. And he still had a fair pint of rum in his veins. 

“I don’t believe you.” Tsukasa said flatly. Was this guy some of manic? Or was he one of them? Either way, he had to be part of one of those two parties, considering the twisted grin he gave her when she threatened to push his throat in. And besides, she knew the look of blood way too well to ever mistaken for a smoothie. Plus, the substance on his hands smelt like blood too.

She broke the staff in half, only to shove one of the metal sticks against the man’s throat. She was little more than a couple of inches away from him now. That blood couldn’t have been his; otherwise he would’ve been bleeding somewhere, which she didn’t fine.

It left only one option in its wake: it was someone else’s. This man could be a danger to the city. “I’ll ask you again. Whose. Blood. Is. That?”

The kiss of cold metal on his jugular was starting to annoy Styx, but he kept his hands in the air. He didn’t rightly know who half the blood belonged to and that person wouldn’t be needing it anymore, anyway. He decided to answer somewhat truthfully.

“Surprisingly, mine. Some of it anyway," 

He had a feeling she wouldn’t believe him, and so, motioning to remain calm, wriggled out of his trench jacket to reveal the gash in his black sweater which deceivingly colored his blood a rich purple red.

"As you can see, I have all the reason to be seeking a place to clean up. It does not need to be here, so I will take my leave, si?”

He pulled his trench back on and, hands raised once again, began to back carefully away. He would come back some other time, with better equipment. The wound wasn’t deep enough to be threatening and, as the cliche went, he had had worse. So it came as a surprise to the Spaniard when his right leg gave out and he found himself suddenly sinking down on that knee.

Her eyes widened at the sight of the blood on his sweater- he should probably get that checked out…Still, keeping her stance, she nodded at him. “Yes, you should do that.”

She turned away as he inched closer to the steps before he suddenly collapsed on his right knee. The noise that came along with that made her whirl around again only for her to rush over to his side. 

Not out of concern, of course.

“What’s wrong?!” Tsukasa shouted in his ear, sinking down to his level. Her staff had been thrown in the other direction. “Are you okay?!”

Styx cursed his luck. It would be laughably easy to dispatch her now and collect the commission, but his chances of getting back down those steps were very very bad. The idiot must have hit a nerve or something or maybe… maybe he just wasn’t as young as he used to be. He grit his teeth.

“No. Apparently not. You would not happen to have gauze and a sewing kit handy, by the chance?”

A breeze jangled the chimes and he smiled at the sound before locking eyes with the vigilante. 

“I could use antiseptic too, and water. It appears I am unable to be leaving just yet. My apologies.”
