Akira lay sprawled out on the ground of the meadow, listening to Luke talk. She raised a brow when he setup for some serious sweet-talking, which he duly delivered in spades. Not only that, but he was doing that thing where he slid all over her. She liked it when he did that. Listening to the shower of compliments he bestowed upon her as he slid around her, she could only smile.
Oh, stop it, Luke. You're going to make me all misty-eyed again," she said, still with a smile on her face. "Can you imagine what the kids would think if they saw me like this? Scandalous." She sort of just mentally rolled around for a bit, letting her tails sway in the breeze. "And I know how much you love my tails," she said with a smirk. "I don't think you'd ever let me forget that."
"And for what it's worth, I wouldn't change you either. After all...you picked me. There aren't many Pokemon out there who would ever even consider it. You've got some gusto," she said, nudging him as they locked eyes.
Her face twisted a little at his next comment about Amara. "I don't think that's a good idea...she seems very...fragile. Even around other kids. Me of all people trying to befriend her would be a lost cause...wouldn't it?" she mused, with a hint of uncertainty at the ending question. Maybe she would...I don't know. She's absolutely terrified of me, though. More than anyone else in the village. And...for good reason. Not that I'm going to change, so long as kids like Bam-bam are around, she thought to herself.
Rose listened with amusement as Angel went on about her fashion exploits. "You seem to be fitting into them just fine right now," she chuckled. "A workout regime?" She pondered. That sounds like a lot of work for something I'm not really interested in...I'd rather be practicing, she thought to herself. "Interesting...!" she said, trying to sound interested but failing. But, she dutifully followed her sister through the mall nonetheless.
Soon they were in the athletic wear store and Rose was looking around every which way, bewildered by the vast array of styles and options for exercise wear and equipment. As far as she could remember, Angel hadn't taken her into an athletic store before. She definitely felt like a fish out of water. "What...is all this?" she asked her sister. "And do you really need it to exercise?" Granted, a lot of the things Angel had she didn't need, but...outfits for exercising? She'd have to ponder this further.

Angel's expression did not hide her dissatisfaction with Rose's wardrobe choices. When Angel said "not quite", Rose knew she'd be wearing something else shortly. Fortunately, it was just a cream-colored cardigan and not an entire wardrobe change. "What can I say? You know best," she said, half jokingly. She put the cardigan on, resisting a chuckle at the state of Angel's room, which appeared as if a bomb had gone off in it. Soon, the pair were out the door, passing the presently...occupied master bedroom along the way.
She chuckled at her sister's question. "When have I ever not been along just 'for the ride'?" she asked with a grin. "Who knows...maybe one day you'll get me to buy something." Looking to keep the conversation going, she picked a question bomb that was sure to get Angel talking. "What about you? What kind of shoes are you looking for?"

Rose smiled as her sister went to work picking out clothes for the shopping trip. She herself had inherited an inkling of Carmen's fashion sense, but not much. Staring at the closet of clothes before her, she was both slower and less thorough than Angel had been, merely skimming the options. Eventually she found a cute short navy blue halter dress and pulled it out. "Sure," she remarked simply to herself, and turned around to see Angel dressed. She grinned and gave two thumbs up, before beginning to get dressed herself. Soon she was dressed with matching navy flip-flops and was ready to go. She sort of hoped her fashion-conscious sister would approve of her basic wardrobe choices, but she also didn't much care. She was along to have fun.
"Well, shall we?" she said to Angel, pulling the door open and standing next to it with a little smile and tilt of the head.

Rose listened to her sister talk about the books. "I mean...she was born from a star, remember?" she commented. "She had to learn everything from books. No formal schooling. It's kind of amazing actually..." her voice trailed off, pondering it some more. "I still don't understand how a human angel girl and another girl who basically amounts to stardust can have two kids though."
She perked up at her sister's shopping trip offer. "Sure!" She didn't like going shopping to shop, but just to spend some time with her sister, who really enjoyed shopping. Especially for shoes. Carmen had a particular affinity for dresses, and it seemed that gene turned into shoes when Angel was made.
"Oh, don't get yourself down, Lily," Carmen consoled her wife, putting her arms around her. "When you're sad, I'm sad. And we should be happy! I know the old days are gone, but look what we have. We have two wonderful daughters (who are wonderful more because of your genes than mine, I suspect)," she continued, giving Lily a friendly squeeze, [b]"and a stable life without having to worry about demons or Hell or...anything else. I mean...isn't that what you wanted?"
She did have to chuckle at the memories Lily brought up though. "How could I ever forget that first time we realized we were roommates? It's a moment that'll be forever etched into my memory. And it really kind of started it all..." her voice trailed off, remembering.

"It means you're accident prone," Carmen replied matter-of-factly to Angel. Reminds me of a certain shapeshifter I used to know, she thought. The happy memory made her less concerned about Angel, and she looked lazily over at her daughter's desk. "Studying my books again I see. Hope you're enjoying them, dear," she said with a soft smile, and turned to dutifully follow Lily when she was tugged away.
She smiled at her wife's question. "Oh...this and that..." she said cryptically, with a little devious grin on her face as she looked at Lily. Walking into the master bedroom, she put her trumpet down next to the bed and sat down on it, pulling Lily down to sit next to her. "I know you'll like it," she said, smiling, holding Lily's hand in hers.
After a moment of pondering silence, she spoke again. "Lily...how do you think the others are doing? You know...from the Academy. I wonder how their lives turned out." She smiled at Lily. "I know we turned out alright."
Rose smiled at her sister upon her question. "Yeah, as always." She waved goodbye to their parents as they left the room and idly pushed the door mostly closed with her free hand. She looked over at Angel's desk. "What about you? Reading some more of mom's books? She sure does have a lot of them."

Carmen sat in her and Lily's master bedroom with the door closed. She loved Lily and their two children dearly, but she needed peace and quiet sometimes. She got it with Lily and she got it with Rose, but she absolutely didn't get it with Angel. Still, she loved her all the same. She was doing what she often did - playing along with Rose but so quietly that nobody outside of the room would know. Naturally, she was passing the time until something happened or her latest order of clothes arrived - whichever came first. Angel, Lily, and...well, all three of them really...had expressed their desire to be included in these orders and she was only too happy to oblige. Lily did because she had always been interested in the world as viewed by Carmen (and particularly fashion), and the girls did because, well, they had Carmen's genes in them.
Predictably, her serenity was soon shattered by Angel, who had hit her leg by the sound of things...again. Carmen sighed. It didn't mean she was going to check on her daughter, though.
"You really ought to remember it sometime," Carmen sneaked into the conversation between Angel and Lily as she walked through the open door, trumpet in hand. She gently put her arm around Lily, standing next to her and looking at Angel. "We don't want you to get hurt again. Even if it's by yourself."
Her ears perked up at the sound of silence...or, rather, the distinct lack of erhu. She assumed that Rose would be-
"Did something happen?" came the voice of Rose from behind Carmen, who stepped out of the way momentarily to let her in, erhu in hand.

Miyoshi had to do almost nothing to prepare for the supercavitation drive's activation. After all, she had been in her bunk scrolling through her tablet well before the Colonel came in to warn of the announcement. Being ever curious, she had already read up a little on what the tablet had to say about the supercavitation drive. It seemed like something out of science fiction (as did the whole ship)...now it was time to see if it was science fact.
The siren sounded, the lights went red and the synthesized announcement came loud and clear. Then the acceleration came, which still startled Miyoshi despite how prepared she was for it. This was an aircraft carrier, not a fighter jet. And an experimental submersible one at that - a point which became loudly clear moments later when the ship violently vibrated. It's not supposed to be this violent...is it? she thought, a trifle worried about the integrity of the ship and if there would be malfunction and resultant delay announcements shortly. They didn't come, and the Nimue (relatively) settled down for its underwater supercruise.
She sat up in her bunk and looked around. The others were clearly as jarred by the violent activation as she was. That said, it was amazing. "So...this is an aircraft carrier," she said, exhausting all of her thoughts on the matter. While it wasn't the most fantastic acceleration she'd experienced by any stretch, it was being done underwater in a vessel that was holding a squadron's worth of jet fighters in it. Science fact, she thought.
She elected to get out of her bunk and take a seat at the table with the Colonel. She'd be spending a lot of time in that bunk, and figured it best to get out of it. Of course, she brought her tablet with her and resumed scrolling through it once she sat down. After all, "momentarily" hadn't occurred yet.
