Makino was giggling internally as she looked to Allura. "Sure. Bumblebee~." Allura turned and pushed her playfully her in the arm with an exhausted sigh. Makino's eyes widened as she started to stumble causing Allura to panic and grab her friends arm.
Getting Makino stable on her feet again the two laughed for a few seconds. "Come on," Makino giggled. The two started walking toward the auction hall. "So when did this happen?"

Allura hesitated some before finally talking, "Okay, well. The day you had us come see you? Well I went ahead and got through the list that day and two of our lovely friends had ultimatums for me. A date or no help. I know I could have went to you and it would have been handled but." She sighed, "I decided 'Why the hell not?'"
As Makino looked at her she continued, "Mitsuo asked me first and I have a date set up with him next Friday. With Yukio it wasn't even meant to be a date really. He said the only way he would help is if I spent a day of the festival with him so I did and we ended up actually getting along really well and going to dinner." She didn't realize it but as she talked her blush returned.

Makino smiled brightly. "Well as long as your alright with it. I guess i don;t have to go bust heads." She giggled warmly. "You looked like you were really have a lot of fun with Yuiko." She looked off in the distance.
"He is a really good guy. I have to say if his brother would not have ask first I probably would have ended up with him." She looked quickly to Allura her eyes wide. "OH MY GOD! To think I could be married right now and to of all people. Yukio!"

Allura laughed softly and poked her friends forehead lightly, "I feel like one way or another you would have found your way to Sojiro. But." She shook her head, "It's such a weird thought to think of you two possibly being married. Especially with the way he acts normally."
They both giggled, "I feel like you'd constantly be wanting to beat him over the head."

Makino laughed nodding her head. "Nowadays, yes. Yukio is a pain he use to not be like that. Then one day." She shook her head as she looked at Allura. "And I can't say it was because of his brothers death because he changed before that. he only got worse after his brothers death."
She smiled warmly, "but that doesn't change the guy he is deep inside. The Yukio I grew to know and love is still in there. He just needs to be pulled back out." She looked to Allura quickly then forward once more. "Who knows. Maybe you will be the one to do that. Bumblebee~" Makino teased her. She shook her head with a giggle. "How did he come up with a nickname like that for you anyway?"

Allura continued to face forward, but was obviously shy about the nickname being used, "Okay to start off. Yukio challenged at the start of the night to a race and then he asked how I was so quick. I didn't explain until later on."
She ended up with a soft smile on her face, one that Makino had certainly not seen before, "We then started a little game. See who was better at the festival games and well. We were going past the rigged ones when he cheated and got my a prize. A giant stuffed bee and then I finally explained about Kumabachi and how she is a wasp, but he's decided that Bumblebee is my new nickname and that I'm stuck with it."

Makino smiled at her nodding her head, "That's cute. I think you two would make a cute couple." She fell short as Allura quickly looked to her. Makino giggled. "What? I am just being honest. I mean of course it is all up to you, but I still think you two would make a cute couple."
Allura quickly shook her head, "It's not like that, Makino. And it most likely will never be. I admit. Yukio is very sweet and good-looking. But I just don't see myself with someone because as is I hate when people worry about me, and I'm too busy worrying about what I want in the future to consider it."
"If you think your going to be lost all your life your crazy. In time you will figure out what you want. And guess what?" Allura looked at her with pondering eyes as Makino got a huge grin on her face. Yukio~ will still be around~." She teased.

Allura's face flushed scarlet yet again as she sighed at her friend, "I'm sure he'll find someone long before. I doubt he's actually interested anyways. Sure we have fun together but he could easily find that with someone else, he just hasn't looked very hard."
She waved her hand to dismiss Makino's words, "And before you say it. I'm not interested in him or anyone. I'm just saying that in a reality, if I did decide later one I wanted to be with someone, I'd probably be too late and so there'd be no point in worrying about it then."

Makino giggled, "Mhmm, sure what you said." Allura looked to her again as the two giggled and stepped up to the area where the auction was being held. "Well looks like we are here. Should we go in and find Riku or let him come to us?"
Makino was having a hard time with wanting to stand on her one leg as she wobbled around some. "Maybe we should go to him. I need to sit down."

Allura nodded, relieved that the topic was changed, as she went to Makino's side and assisted in helping her keep her balance. "It'd probably be best. Who knows how long he'd be if we waited on him." She laughed some and aided her friend in entering the building, hoping to put this conversation long behind them. ~END RP~ "Festival Auction":

Bleach Unrated: REBOOTEDCurrent Arc: RejectionEpisode 437 "Of Today": Naoru Asuhara walked through the festival grounds, it was mid-day but there were still more patrons--rich scumbag patrons--at the fair than Naoru thought there would be. He tried to talk his baby brother, Riku, into coming with him--Riku loves festivals--so when he declined his invitation he was shocked. So much so, he asked his brother if he was sick.
Riku only shrugged him off, claiming he would go later in the evening. He told him that he could pick more pockets in the evening than he could in the middle of the day. Stating, ‘Cockroaches come out when the lights go out.’ He only laughed at his baby brother and took out on his own. Riku was going to be disappointed though because there seemed to be plenty of his ‘so-called’ roaches out in the daytime.
Passing a few of the merchants' stalls, Naoru stopped at one that had beautiful hairpieces. He thought of his sisters and mother as he looked at each piece presented on the table. “Looking for your girl?” Naoru looked up at the elderly merchant and smiled, “Sadly no. I have yet to find a girl that would put up with me.”The merchant chuckled lightly. “I know your pain, son. I thought the same thing until I found the love of my life.” He chuckled again. “They say we sweep them off their feet, but my sweet Akane not only swept me off my feet, she sent me to the stars.” “I could only be so lucky,” Naoru stated with a bright smile. “Ahh, don’t sound so defeated, son. She is out there. Just gotta give her time to find you.” Naoru’s smile turned warm as he looked at the old man. “I hope you’re right, but until then,” Naoru chuckled, “what kind of deal would you be willing to make for five of your hairpieces? My sisters and mother would love these.”“Come from a big family, son?” Naoru chuckled, “You could say something like that. Counting me there are eight of us. Four girls and four boys.”“No boring moments at your home.” The merchant chuckled. Naoru chuckled as he looked at the hairpieces, he mumbled under his breath, “If you only knew.”“So… you said you were looking for a deal for five, correct?” Naoru nodded his attention quickly captured by two beautiful women who were talking and standing at the table with him. One in particular catching his eye. |

“Which one do you like, Maki-chan?” Koko asked.
Makino shook her head, “there are too many just to pick one, and last night, Haku bought me the one I really liked.”
Koko giggled covering her mouth with the sleeve of her kimono. “Master Haku is sweet on you. One day the two of you will finally be together.”
Makino gave Koko a shocked look, “You’re talking nonsense, Koko. Haku and I are only friends. Plus, he is a Yamamoto. He would never marry into a family like ours.” Makino picked up a Tsumami Kanzashi hair clip of pink sakura flowers, with two strands of falling sakura petals as tassels. ”You would have sounded more believable if you would have said Jiro was sweet on me.”
Koko giggled again, “Jiro has been sweet on you since you both were eight.”
Makino looked at Koko confused, “Where are you getting your information, girl? Both Haku and Jiro are like brothers to me, and they think the same of me.”
Koko looked at the hairpieces picking one up as she spoke. "Straight from the source. Where else would I get information like this? I don't pull it from thin air." From the corner of her eye, Koko saw Makino give her a confused look, she giggled under her breath and continued looking at the hairpieces.

Naoru was trying hard not to listen to the two ladies as they chatted, but it was hard. It reminded him of his sisters when they sat around gossiping. He chuckled lightly looking toward the two girls. “I apologize, ladies. I feel like I am still at home with my sisters. They carry on the same way.”
Koko smiled warmly at the charming young man at the table with them. “Sorry, we don’t get much time to visit. Let alone talk about one another's love life.”
Naoru returned the lady's smile. “No, no, don’t apologize. It’s refreshing to know that my sisters are not the only ones that carry on.”
“If you don’t mind me asking, how many sisters do you have?” Koko asked.
Naoru shook his head, “Not at all. I have four. My twin and three younger sisters.”
Koko’s eyes lit up. “You have a twin?”
“Mhmm, but she is a lot better looking than me,” Naoru confessed.
Koko giggled, “Don’t sell yourself short. I think you're very handsome.”
Naoru gave her a sly grin with a slight bow, “Well thank you, my lady, and may I say you’re very beautiful as well.”

Koko blushed, casting her eyes to the table of hairpieces, “Thank you.”
Makino looked the way of the couple. Koko’s cheeks were beet red, “I’ll be over here, Koko.” Makino pointed toward another table across the way. “For when you’re done talking.”
Makino smiled at the guy as he looked over at her smiling warmly. She only nodded and continued her path over to the table.
Naoru looked back at the one still standing there with him. “I don’t want to seem forward, but may I have your name? I’m Naoru Asuhara.” He bowed to the young lady once more.
“My friends call me Koko, but my real name is Yondo Kyoko.” Koko told him.
“Kyoko. You have a lovely name, Lady Yondo.” Naoru complimented her.
“You may call me Koko, and thank you, Lord Asuhara.”
“Oh no! Lord Asuhara is my father. Naoru is just fine.”
Koko smiled warmly with a small nod, "if that is what you wish."

Naoru returned her smile, “Yes, that is what I wish.”A comfortable silence fell between the two until Naoru spoke up again. His arm lifted, his hand scratching the back of his head. “Koko, would I be to forward if I ask you out to tea tomorrow?”Koko blushed as she cast her eyes to the hairpieces once more, and started fidgeting with the one closest to her. “No, of course not, but,” she looked up at Naoru, “it depends on what Lady Tori has me doing tomorrow.” Naoru looked over at the young girl who was standing with them just moments before. “That’s, Lady Tori?” His attention turned back to Koko. “The kimono artist?”Koko giggled, shaking her head. “Noooo silly. That is Makino Tori her youngest.” Naoru looked back at the young girl. She was wearing a beautiful cream-colored kimono with a beautiful gardenscape of Sakura blossoms and lavender Wisteria, a pair of ruby-throated hummingbirds feeding from the flowers. “Is the kimono she is wearing, one that her mother did?” Koko was watching Makino as well as she nodded her head slowly, “Yes, that is one of Maki-chan’s favorites.” Koko turned her attention back to Naoru. “Since her brothers call her Hinadori.” “It’s very beautiful,” Naoru commented, “I tried to get my hands on one just before the Takeover, but it was destroyed when the Arrancar marched through the market square.” He looked back at Koko. “Since we have moved past the Takeover, will Lady Tori continue to paint?” Koko nodded smiling brightly, “I am sure she will. Painting is one of Lady Tori’s great pleasures.” Naoru looked Makino’s way once more admiring her kimono. “You will have to inform me when she releases her next few.” He looked back at Koko returning her smile. “I will be the first in line to purchase one.”Koko nodded, “I will do my best to keep you informed.” She paused for a second. “Now about having tea tomorrow.” Her smile was warm. “I am sure Lady Tori won’t mind if I leave the manor for lunch. Would you like to meet tomorrow at noon?” Naoru nearly forgot with talking about the famous Tori Kimonos. What he would give to get his hands on one, and how pissed his little brother Riku would be if he got one before he did. Naoru chuckled to himself. “Yes, that would be wonderful. Tomorrow at noon at Matcha Meadows?” Naoru asked.”I will see you there,” Koko commented her attention turning to Makino when she walked up to her and Naoru. “Are you ready to finish shopping, Koko?” Makino asked her. Naoru bowed slightly to Makino when she walked up, “Well then, I guess our chat comes to an end, my lady.” Naoru took Koko’s hand and kissed the back of it. “Until tomorrow.”“Until tomorrow, I will be looking forward to it,” Koko claimed as she and Makino walked away. Naoru watched as the two ladies walked away. “Well, son. Have you decided on the hairpieces you would like to purchase?” the merchant questioned. Naoru turned and smiled at the merchant, “Yes, and I would like to add one more to the count.”
The merchant chuckled as Naoru stepped up to the table and picked out the six hairpieces he wanted to purchase for his mother and sisters and one for Koko when they meet up tomorrow.--END RP-- "Flight"
