Out with the old....

[sundead]

Who: Everyone
What: New Year's.
When: Dec. 31st, New Year's Eve, to Jan 1st, New Year's Day.
Where: Everywhere
Summary: It's New Year's, and the people of Luceti have a lot to reflect upon, and to look forward to. And on a more meta level, new journal names.
Rating: We'll see...

New Year's brings images of crowds, and songs, and fireworks; staying up til midnight and watching balls or bells being rung. But Luceti is a different time and place. Whether you're partying with friends or watching the sunrise, what are you doing today?

[Ami has to really struggle not to laugh. Usagi looks cute with her cheek puffed out, and Ami remembers seeing her in that state more than once (and, embarrassingly, being the teacher's example of what Usagi should do for class, down to arriving early instead of late).]

Don't be angry over our teasing. [She says it with a smile.] We don't mean any harm by it. I'll even make something special at dinner tonight to makek up for it.

Keiichi-kun, since you were part of this, you should make it up to Usagi-chan, too.

[breaks_destiny]

You're right, I should do something to make up and properly apologize.

[Now let him think about it.]

What could it be?

[lunas]

Alriiiight.. [ still stretching it a little with her cheek poked. ]

And I know what you can do! For both of you to make it up to me, we can have a special dinner tonight, and Keiichi-kun has to come over for dinner too! [ she seems to completely have forgotten her bad mood, smiling instead at both of them before turning to Ami. ]

Um.. it would be alright for him to come over, right, Ami-chan?

[geniustheveil]

I think it sounds like a good idea. [Ami turns to Keiichi, solicitous as ever.] That is, if it's alright with you. If the notice is too sudden, please take our invitation another time. We'd like to have you as our guest.

[breaks_destiny]

[Yeaaah, no. As awesome as the idea is and as much as Keiichi is always ready to munch on other people's cooking skills today is a bad night. He really looks dejected about it when Ami as well turns to him with that expression.]

That's awesome, but I can't. Tonight, I mean, neither tomorrow but if it would be okay with you to be the next day after that I'm free. To be honest I was on my way to find my girlfriend to spend this night with her and then we will go and spend the New Year with the family so...

[He's booked.]

Why don't you two drop by home to celebrate with us? We wouldn't mind.

[lunas]

Aww, Keiichi-kun is too popular for us, huh..? [ she pouts, but even though it's a little disappointed it's not seriously dejected, probably. ]

I guess I wouldn't mind as long as Ami-chan doesn't either..

[geniustheveil]

Usagi-chan. [She says it quietly, but her eyes stray to Keiichi.]

We can't just suddenly intrude on a family celebration.

[breaks_destiny]

Of course you can, you're family too! It's not intruding, I'm inviting you, am I not?

[Laughing.]

[lunas]

[ ... Hm. On one hand, Usagi likes celebrating things with as many people as possible, on the other hand, if Ami is too awkward or uncomfortable with it, she isn't sure if she wants to do this.

So instead Usagi just stares at Ami, as if waiting for her to make the decision. ]

[geniustheveil]

[Usagi, you should be making the choice! Now Ami's caught trying to think what Usagi would want. Knowing her, she'd probably want to meet new people, so...]

I think we should go.
