6/24: Steph
[ He'd shouted a lot during the day, waking up and shouting himself hoarse and wanting to cry about everything that had happened. Nothing had turned out how he'd wanted— he was so sure it would, but it didn't, and now he's left behind to sort things out. Still alive.
There are things he can sort out by himself late at night, but there are things he needs people for- longs to be with people after not having that chance. Later in the evening, after dinner when people are fed and ready to wind down for the night, he goes to find her. ]
...Tell me about what happened. All of it. What went wrong, and what I can do to change that next time.

Right? Lots of people know how to use swords, so I didn't think it was that hard either. ...I'm really nothing special compared to everybody else, huh?
no subject
[ she gestures at him. ]
You're very special though.

You're underestimating me! Let's go find flies!
no subject
We'd need something to catch them with.
no subject
The kitchen's super close so we can get bait there, and then those mesh strainers we can use as a net! Like catching butterflies!
no subject
Yeah, sure. Let's do it.
no subject
[ Steph is too...? He is, at any rate, teenaged be damned. ]
Are you up for walking?
no subject
[ it's better if she did not walk. ]
no subject
Anyways, he says walk, but he's too excited and sort of just jogs/runs/sprints to the door, holding it open so Steph can very very slowly inch her way after him. ]
no subject
[ SIGHS!!!!!
she'll go after him. ]
no subject
Actually, no! You keep going towards the door outside and I'll get the stuff from the kitchen and I'll catch up to you, okay?!
no subject
Yeah, yeah. I'll see you outside.
no subject
But alright, with that promise, he gets to work gathering up the stuff he needs. Flies... like garbage, supposedly, but the trash cans are all empty because I really didn't want to write about how Natsuo would, without hesitation, dig through the trash to get what he needs. Instead, he gets a clean trash bag, waves it around a couple times to catch the air and open it, and starts throwing food inside. A couple loaves of bread, some apples, jar of peanut butter, one of the butter knives, a jar of something that he dumps out into the sink so he can wash it and fill it with apple juice, etc etc.
He'll be out in 15 minutes, ample time to catch up to Steph still hobbling halfway down the hall, probably. ]
no subject
when natsuo catches up though, steph will offer him a little wave, as if it isn't embarrassing that he caught up with her already. ]
Yo. Got the bait?
no subject
[ He gives the trash bag a little heft from where it's slung over his shoulders. ]
I brought a whole bunch of food, so we'll be able to catch plenty of flies! We're going to have a picnic!
no subject
We should probably head for the stables.
no subject
That's a good idea. Wonder if we can get there faster... Can you use your grappling hook to reel us in?
no subject
no subject
no subject
[ she... slowly pulls it out though..... ]
no subject
Okay! I'm ready whenever!
no subject
[ she sighs. at least the cord is pretty long, so she doesn't really have much issue with aiming at the stables. ]
On the count of three.
no subject
[ this time, he bypasses the one-two entirely ]
