Sojiro nodded and ran a hand through his silver bangs. “Yes, he can. Through your mind. Mostly he talks to me. But sometimes he will talk to others.” He was dressed in a worn black T-shirt with a white dragon and Spirited Away on the front along with black sweat pants. “If it is important.” He mock glared at the demigod. “This time, I think he was pretending to be a pet on purpose.”
You’re the one who doesn’t want to mate with her tonight, Daichi squeaked at him, so don’t complain.
Makino giggled as Sojiro blushed. “Do I want to know what he said that time?”
Sojiro rubbed at his face. “I don’t think so.” He looked over to her and smiled. “You look good in that shirt.” She was wearing a faded green shirt, two otters playing with each other in water on the front. He reached out and brushed some of her hair off her cheeks. "I'm glad you're with me tonight."

"I am glad you agreed to let me stay." She smiled warmly at him catching his hand as it lowered from her hair. "I think it will do you good to have company with what is going on right now. No one should face this alone."
She stepped out of the way and let him enter the room. "I pulled the covers down so when we were ready we could turn in." She turned back to him with a bright smile. "Its still rather early. Is there anything you want to do?"

Sojiro sat down on the bed. “I don’t know. Usually when something like this happens, I read or work on logical puzzles," he indicated the stack of books on the bedside table, "but it wouldn’t be fair to do that with you here.” He paused. “Do you play any card games? There a couple of those that would work on the bed.” Makino nodded. "I do know a few card games, but I learn quickly if there is one you like to play that I don't know." She walked over to the bed and sat down opposite him. "So what will it be, or..." she got a sly smile on her face. "We could play a game that I used to play as a little girl with my friends when they would sleep over." Sojiro grinned in turn. "Judging by that devious smile on your beautiful face, it seems like it was a fun game." He reached into a drawer and handed her the deck of cards. "Let's play your game first. You're my guest after all. And I'm curious." "Curiosity killed the cat, you know~" she teased, taking the cards out and mixing them up. Sojiro laughed. "I used to live with a cat. She always had a response to that one." He leaned over and kissed his girlfriend's cheek and smirked, eyes shimmering. "Satisfaction brought it back, but a kiss could bring me back, too."The two talked and playing long after Riku returned from his shopping trip, and for a while, the danger looming over them all didn't weigh as heavily on Sojiro's shoulders. - END RP - "Run In":

"Message to My Friends; Part II": (continued) Riku stood outside of his and Sojiro's room, the key in the lock, unturned. He had left for a bit after spending the rest of the morning and afternoon in Makino's dorm room. After Sojiro was taken, he couldn't stand to be in his own room and Makino was in dire need of company as well, so he stayed in her room with her and Lady Saya. The two of them had comforted each other with Lady Saya offering comfort as well. After sitting and talking for a bit, exhaustion had gotten the better of him and he fell asleep on the couch. When he awoke, both Lady Saya and Makino were gone. Thinking they had gone to get dinner as he had heard something about food before dozing off, he had fallen back asleep and had somehow slept through the night. Riku had awoken early in the morning to find neither that Makino nor Lady Saya had returned for the night.
Panic set in for a bit, but then he remembered how close the Festival was. Makino was probably setting things up to get her mind off of Sojiro, and Lady Saya had probably returned home. So he decided to go back to his own dorm and change, then go and help Makino set up for the festival.
And there he stood, unable to even unlock the door. "Excuse me, sir?" Riku jumped and turned around to see a female member of Fourth Squad behind him. "Y-yes?""Are you Riku Asuhara?" The woman asked him. Riku nodded. She pulled out a slip of paper and handed it to him. "This is a message from Makino Tori. She asked me to deliver it to you and Allura Nakane." Riku's eyes widened and he took the slip of paper, not paying attention as the woman left. After reading it over, he pulled his key from the lock and disappeared in a flash of shunpo, his heart racing. Why was Makino in the Medical ward? Was Sojiro there? What had happened while he was peacefully and soundly asleep, safe in Makino's room? Was Makino okay? He couldn't bear to see another friend hurt... or worse.Moved -- END --

"Final Glance":
Allura looked at the list she had made of things for her and Riku to go through as she stood outside of his dorm. She had come here immediately after she had changed so she was unsure if he was even in his dorm. She knocked lightly and waited for a moment until she heard movement.
The door opened and Allura greeted him with a smile, "Hey Riku. Ready to do our final walk through? "

Riku smiled brightly at Allura and stepped aside so she could come in. "Of course. Come on in. I have tea made. If you haven't eaten yet, we can have breakfast then head out to the festival site after I get dressed. We're going to have a busy day, so we'll need our energy."
As Allura stepped in, Riku trotted off back to the kitchen in his white sleeping kimono, his hair still somewhat messy and out of his usual ponytail, letting his medium length hair brush his shoulders and fall into his face. "How do you like your tea?"

"I had a small snack before we left. With my tea it can either be as is or overly sweet. Surprise me." Allura smiled as she walked over to the couch and sat down.
She ran a hand though her hair that was down instead of in some form of up style, "Are you excited to see how all of this turned out?"

"Very excited! Especially with the auctions!" Riku brought a tray with two cups of tea and two bowls of fresh, mixed fruit with just about every fruit you could think of in it. He dropped two sugars into Allura's tea and stirred, handing it to her. He took up his bowl of fruit and left the other for Allura incase she changed her mind.
"I think we did pretty well, despite our set backs and limitations. I'm sure we'll have a great turnout." He sipped his tea with milk and honey and poked a slice of peach, popping it into his mouth. He pushed the hair in his face, still damp from his shower, back over his head, relaxing back into the back of the couch. "I hope Makino likes how we did things."

Allura nodded as she took her tea and sipped it, "I really do hope they'll be able to attend the festival if only for a few minutes."
She got a thoughtful look for a moment then smiled, "I think I was going to ask sooner but forgot, are you going to be dressing up for the festival, Riku?"

Riku giggled. "Not in costume, but I'll be dressing up instead of down none the less. I have a very beautiful kimono that Maki-chan's mother gave to me. It's perfect for the festival."
"I bet it will look great." Allura took another sip of her tea then helped herself to a strawberry that was in the bowl left for her.
"Are you dressing up, Allura?" He smiled at her, happy that she ate the fruit after all.

Allura nodded with a bright smile, "Actually, I am. I intend on going as a kitsune, but now that I'm going to have company I kind of wish I had time to reconsider." At the thought of this her face got a faint tint of pink and she shook her head.
"I am excited to wear it despite that though." Her tone had excitement mixed into it as she spoke, showing she was truly hoping to enjoy the night.

"Oh really?" Riku's curiosity spiked. "Who is your company going to be?"
Allura smiled nervously, "I'm not sure if you've properly met him yet, but it's Yukio Mori. Both him and Mitsuo gave me the option of a date or no help. I could have said no and been on my way but," She took a moment to shrug, "I thought I'd might as well, I don't have anything to lose."
"Really? That's a rather mean ultimatum. If I had known they said that, I would have called Maki-chan," Riku frowned. "Did you really say yes to both of them? So you have two dates for the festival?"

Allura quickly shook her head, "Yukio said I only had to spend one day of the festival with him. Mitsuo and I have a date planned for next Friday."
As she spoke it was plainly obvious the topic was flustering her, "Like I said though, I didn't really have anything to lose and I'd might as well try to enjoy myself instead of holing myself into my room."

Riku nodded, smiling reassuringly. "Well, If you need a rescue, I'll be there."
After finishing his fruit and his tea, he took his dishes to the kitchen, then headed to his room, telling Allura to make herself comfortable while he changed. He didn't take very long, throwing on a white under kimono and a light blue and dark violet kimono. He came out with his copies of the maps, notes and checklists.
"Okay! I'm ready when you are."

Allura took her own dishes to the kitchen once she was done. When Riku returned she nodded to what he said then headed towards the door, "Alright." She walked out of the room with Riku following behind her as they headed off to the festival area to do their final walk through to make sure everything was just as they needed it to be. ~END RP~
