The Nexus

[Dorm] Asami wipes his nose on his bedsheet, using his wrist to dry his eyes. "'Cause we got shadows," Asami casually replies, "They're always gonna have an influence with us beneath the surface, like our personas. You gotta know that part of someone too to really understand them.&qu...

"Awesome, I've... Maybe been on a date before? Hm. Have you been on a date before, Asami?" Agate's now wondering if this is the second date, even if it wasn't planned. Does the arcade count as a date? Was it one at the time, is it upgraded retroactively to 'date' by this one? Has Asami ha...

[Dorm] Asami rolls over, keeping his pillow over his face. "*sniff* You're missing the point here. Farmers, too, have to work to raise and milk the cow. And even beyond that, the milk has to be brought to the store where the employees there work to sell it to us. There's a lot of work that goe...

[Dorm] Asami rubs his eyes, looking to Darko. Seeing as Darko's cleaning the mess right now, Asami takes a step back to let him work. "B-but... that poor cow. All his hard work... wasted." Asami sniffles, allowing a passive stream of tears as he slumps into his bed, similarily unmade with...

[Dorm] Asami, weary and hungry from the constant tedium of classes, was nearly always eager to return to her dorm once her last class of the day got out. She quickly tries to get changed into his casual clothes before Darko arrives, jeans and a Sonic t-shirt. He didn't wear his jacket around the do...

[6F -> 21F]

Asami shoots a brief glare at Oniko. "I wasn't aware I needed permission to be mad about that," she says sarcastically, proceeding to the teleporter and waiting for Oniko to catch up. As she stands there, she quickly checks her phone to see if it has service.

[6F] Asami groans upon noticing the notebook, temporarily setting her phone on the ground and jumping up thirty feet, reaching for the diary pages and being careful to avoid touching the tree itself, uncertain of its fragility. Despite this, she fails to account for the "THUD!" when she l...

[6F] Asami shrugs, discontent. "I... guess that's better than nothing. And stop acting so beat up about it! Sulking about it won't bring my diary back. Er..." she narrows her eyes, "Will it?" Finally, Asami scratches the back of her head and gets a move on. Seeing as she's looki...

[6F] Asami's smile wanes as Oniko keeps speaking. She looks stunned for a moment before slouching forward, a frustration scribble appearing over her head. Oniko may recognize this as Asami habitually uses her domain of light to express herself, mimicking symbols used in animated works. "Seriou...

[A Bridge Too Far] Ardi shoots an excited grin before suddenly looking impassive, crossing his arms and closing his eyes musingly. "Ooh, well, this isn't my world. I don't really need to be able to get back here, but... I promised Octavia I'd hold onto some photos for her, so... I guess I'll w...

[A Bridge Too Far] Ardi tilts his head at Khannie. "Didn't I just say that?" he asks, confused. Without hesitation, Ardi proceeds to the outer chamber. He closes his eyes, bringing his hand close to his sword and taking a breath. The coordinates of Ardi's point of departure led to a hole ...

[Boy and Dog] Jon looks confusedly between Lenny and Darko before bringing his gaze further away from both, catching sight of his tail which he immediately proceeds to chase. This circular movement continues on for a good moment before he suddenly stops, running towards and attempting to lay on his...

[Aiko's Bad Day] Brignole Manor Asami crosses her arms, a thoughtful look on her face. "I thought as much. That Aiko-senpai was very upset around Aiai-senpai. I don't think its unreasonable at all to believe she'd act unpredictably if brought here." Noticing herself becoming tense, Asami ...

[Aiko's Bad Day] Brignole Manor Asami smiles, replying to Mary, "I heard you guys were coming here, so I decided to catch up." Asami puts her shoes on the mat and follows behind the Aikos. At Shekmet's questioning, Asami spoke up, "The other Aiko-senpai's with a friend of mine. Said ...

[Boy and Dog] Jon kicks his hind leg as his ears are scratched, having a contented look on his face. He tilts his head at Lenny's question, looking back to Darko. "(Smell like Lenny. Same pack?") Jon looks up towards Darko and whips his head back, imitating how a human would beckon someon...

[Outdoor Movie Pl-A-ce] Asami pushes the blanket to the side so she can see what Agate is holding, gazing curiously at the shilling. At Agate's question, Asami pauses for a second and looks lost. Suddenly, she smiles brightly. "Yeah, like a date," she agrees confidently, moving to hold Ag...

[Outdoor Movie Pl-Ace] "Shill... ings?" Asami asks. While her facial expression was hidden, the tilt of her head and droop of the blanket was expressive enough. She had never heard that word before in her life. "Well... I was planning on doing a plot here, but it kind of fell through...

[Boy and Dog]

Jon takes a few steps forward, taking a look back toward Darko before trotting up to Lenny and licking her face continuously in an attempt to wake her up.

[Aiko's Bad Day] Asami was awoken by the knocking, rubbing her eyes and weakly raising herself. It takes her a bit to fully get up, walking into the manor just after Shekmet enters the scene. "Speak up, Brignole, I don't think they heard you on Jupiter. Hm?" Asami's sarcastic facade faded...

[A Bridge Too Far]

"Ah, got it!" Ardi responds cheerfully, happily continuing to hold the cylinders. Oddly enough, he seemed to be a lot more patient now then he was before, graciously compling and listening intently to anything Geneva says.

[Outdoor Movie Pl-A-ce] Is cutting in line a thing people do elsewhere? First I've heard of it. Regardless, once Agate comes back with the chocolate bars, Asami happily accepts her's. "Ahh you're an angel, Agachan!" she cheers before taking a bite of the chocolate, her light gradually bec...

[Aiko's Bad Day] At the edge of a clearing, Asami laid face-up with her head against a tree, snoozing peacefully as drool trickles into her hair. She changed out of her gakuran, and into more feminine clothing, namely the skirt Shekmet had a golem get for her when her clothes got sprayed with soda ...

[Outdoor Movie Place]

Asami presses her face down against her arms in a bit of an unsanitary manner. Nervous, she replies appreciatively, "I... could use some chocolate."

[A Real Arcade] Asami places a hand on one of Agate's shoulders. "This is too heavy of a burden for anyone to handle alone, Agate," Asami says tenderly, "I mean, come on, why would you even enroll in the 'doomed hero' program if you thought you had everything under control?" Asa...

[Boy and Dog] Jon is similarly disoriented by the sudden change in his surroundings, having to run about rapidly and sniff everything for a bit before he gets adjusted. Accepting that the Theatre has worked its magic, Jon realizes that he's already at his vague destination, but unsure where in Seas...

[Outdoor Movie Place] Upon being noticed by Agate, Asami is taken aback and shouts under his breath, "Gya!" Surprise wearing off, he worriedly smiles at his friend and waves. "H-hey aga-" he says, interrupting himself as he realizes he doesn't know if Agate knows about him being...

[A Real Arcade] Asami takes her headset off, nodding affirmatively to Agate. "I could see anything, really, if I chose to. My powers have no real limits. The waitress at Trog's calls it 'Sovereignty'. I guess that just means 'ultimate' and stuff." Asami lowers herself to the floor, sittin...

[A Bridge Too Far] Ardi pauses for a second, thinking before speaking up, "Um, the last thing I remember was... fighting a really powerful monster and... then... I awoken in the school. I can't tell what happened!" He shakes his head, distraught. After a moment, he clicks his tongue, worr...

[Dog] Seeing the tentacle make a sudden movement, Jon vigilantly micro-advances, lifting a front paw before relenting as he notices Darko talking to it peacefully. Jon's shooting star-shaped collar, of course, read "Jon Terekhov". He patiently sat and allowed Darko to get a good look at i...

[Outdoor Movie Place] While Asami typically flunked his classes, there was one narrative lesson in particular that stood out to him. The "scene separation" distance. Obviously, if you're right up next to someone, they're gonna notice you. But get a little further away? You can blend in wi...
