i don't want to survive, i want to live

Who: Yes
What: Movie Night + Slumber Party
When: 9/11, Saturday Evening
Where: Dorm Common Room
Warnings: A ridiculous amount of Fluff, probably

( it starts out small. a need for comfort food, and a need for something heartfelt but silly and fun, something genuine and kind. ... and, well, she did find a weird. bootleg vhs set of her favorite movie series, hamster space wars. but the dorm is only barely furnished- and it's not like they can just go out and buy a tv or anything. honestly she completely doubts there's even anything beyond the woods. but she remembers a teacher playing the thing and other stuff in the first month of all of this.

it's so long ago...

but there's a television and a vhs player in the school. and nene... nene's tired and sad and is currently out of fucks to give, so at some point in the day, after everyone else has left, nene has returned to the school and, uh. "borrowed" both things. it's fine. they just have to get it back in by sunday evening. don't worry about it. like, it's definitely heavy but she's a tough cookie who tills soil and everything, and also sara and noah both witnessed everything and are accomplices by default, so they had to help carry things too.

(they were completely happy to help on both accounts, she asked very nicely.)

so the "borrowed" television is set up across from one of the larger couches, and the vhs on top of it. she had cookies in the oven, donuts and hot chocolate made and popcorn popped. the common room paintings are covered with sheets of cloth. all that was left was something cozy- but at this point, nene's made so many little cushions and blankets and even cozy pjs that that's super easy. all that was left was letting anyone who wanted to come know too. so at some point in the halls, nene walks down calling out: )

Cartoons in the common room! Bring blankets and stuff!

( and, so everyone knows what their characters are getting into: hamster space wars is a movie series about different factions of hamsters that have been trying for cross planetary peace for ages now, with a villainous faction having sabotaged the final negotiations so they can control the war from the shadows to make the most money and also get the most seeds (Very Decadent). the first movie follows the main hamster and his little group trying to escape the villains after having witnessed the sabotage, and are trying to avoid assassination and end the war for good. the sequels follow allied factions, with hamster galactic wars being the Thrilling Conclusion.

it's heartfelt. it's silly. it's very cute. nene loves it. )

( oh, yeah, that sounds just like him! you get used to it.

but yeah, finals kind of are a thing now, so amami's not about to argue. )

Alright, truth or dare?

Dare!

[why not. what could ama-chan do]

( "what could ama-chan do" i'm so sorry...

with a grin, amami actually turns around, waving someone else over. )

Komaeda-kun, you have a minute? I need your help with something.

( he's doing something, i don't know... thinking of ways to cause problems, but then he's called out.

he makes his way over eagerly, eyes looking towards amami, and not even realizing subaru is right there. )

Is he bothering you, Amami-kun?

( crying. )

Nah, it's nothing like that.

( motioning with his hand for komaeda to come closer, he'll lean in to whisper something in his ear, giving a nod to the other once he's given the instructions. then, reaching into his pocket, he'll unwrap his mirror shard and put it back, leaving him with just the strip of fabric it was wrapped up in. folding it over a couple times, he looks to subaru, all expectant. )

Akehoshi-kun, c'mere for a minute. It's for the dare.

Aw... but I guess that's fine, I'll be back.

( and he waddles away, waddle waddle. )

( and he finds himself in the kitchen, standing inside as he looks around. )

Hey... Do we have any grapes? ( he walks over to the refrigerator, opening it to take a peek inside. he seems something yellow, pulling it out to look at the liquid in the container. ) Oh... no, they at least have lemonade, it's cold, but I doubt it's fresh and homemade...

( he's disappointed, sliding it back into as he continues his search. )

...Something so simple, and I'm failing an Ultimate.

( and then he sees something he wants, a carton of eggs... he pulls them out, taking one, and closes it to slide it back on the shelf he got it from. )

Two more...

What do I use... ah, how difficult... ( wait! ) I'll make Rokkun's favorite.

( he stares with an egg in hand, nodding to himself as he walks over to the cabinet to pull out a box of rice, he's not checking when he does... but he remembers the last time he fixed a meal, rokkun was pretty satisfied with it and ate the whole thing. he sets it down on the counter with the egg, and pulls out a pot so he can sit it on the stove, and then grabbing a cup so he can pour water inside. turning it on, he waits for it to come to a boil.

he grabs a pan, setting it flat onto the burner, and looking for some oil — he barely misses the clorox, his fingers brushing against the detergent until water pops onto komaeda's collarbone, making him pull his hand back.

Ah! Ahaha... whoops. ( he wipes the liquid away, and he reaches up... grabbing the vegetable oil this time, and he pours it onto the pan. he shakes the pan from left to right so that the oil covers, and he's cracking the egg onto the surface of it with a light sizzle.

... the smell of egg goes through the air. )

( staring at the box of rice he has, he checks the expiration date...

no! it's no good! horrible! he chucks it into the trashcan, he won't embarrass his ultimate, and so he's going to take a quick trip.

intermission.

he leaves the dormitory, rushing back to the school so that he can go to the home ec room to get a box of rice that he knows isn't out of date! he touches flat shelf, smacking his hand everywhere, searching... until the tips of his fingers touches a box — he checks it, and yes! it's the same brand he used for rokkun that time.

okay, he'll leave from the school to come back to the dormitory, and that was probably a 10 minute trip. sorry subaru... )

( now, he sets the box of rice onto the table, and seeing that the water is boiled enough... he starts to pour it in that's mixed with regular rice... must have been in there for awhile, his eyes too focused on the egg to make sure it's still... sunny side up. so now the hot water is boiling whatever is squirming in the pot, and his egg looks... beautiful.

just the yolk is beautiful, yellow, yes... he turns off that side of the stove, and now he's waiting for the "rice" to boil. he walks away from the stove to grab a spoon on the side, coming back to stir it, while thinking of one more ingrediant.

ah... what did they use.

maybe he message rokkun and ask what else they used... he can't remember. meh, he'll improvise. it's one thing, after all.

so as he searches around, he finds...

...

garnish, herbs, because komaeda is going to use that as he waits for his rice to finish. he plucks... goldenseal... i guess, and check on his rice. looks done to him...

he pours the rice into a bowl, tops the egg on top, and then a dash (heavy) of the herb...

he goes to the kitchen's entrance: )

Let me know when you're ready, Amami-kun!

It's fine, you can come over now.

( subaru is properly blindfolded and spared the sight of whatever abomination komaeda has put together for him. )

[...? okay, he'll come closer]

What is it, what is it?

A surprise. Stay still a minute.

( because he needs to wrap this cloth over subaru's eyes, blindfold. it's actually... maybe better this way. )

[subaru immediately stiffens, hands going up to stop amami and then forcing them back down at his sides, closing them into fists nervously. oh he hates this.]

Uh, sure, okay. Why'd you need Maddy's help...?

[bc tbh that. doesnt bode well with the blindfold]

Oh, don't worry. That's just because— ( then he doesn't have to take responsibility for what happens next )

—he's a bit better at this kind of thing than I am.

( he has chopsticks... which he's going to break the egg's yolk so it glazes over the right and maggots. )

You'll love it Akehoshi-kun, I make only the best for my Ultimates.

( ok, so he stands in front of subaru, and when peace comes home... torture begins. )

[well

the face subaru makes shows already he knows it's not right, because he has a keen sense of smell and that

is

so gross,

and they didn't dare him to do it so—]

Nope, not eating whatever that is. I don't wanna be one of your Ultimates if you do that to 'em.

[he's turning away!!! absolutely not!!!]

Oh, guess I win this round then.

( not that he can really blame subaru, but he'll laugh it off a bit as he leans back on his palms, one hand waving for komaeda to back up a bit too. )

You can uncover your eyes then, Akehoshi-kun. Oh, what did you end up with anyway?

( looking at komaeda's bowl now... why'd he get a whole ass bowl... amami thought this'd just be, like, a shotglass so it was easy for subaru to get it over with. guess they could've just said one bite though. )

That's fine, I'll take the L.

[oh thank goodness he is

trying not to take the blindfold off too fast because that'll alert weakness to komaeda and komaeda is the last person subaru feels like he wants to know that he has an aversion to being blindfolded]

Yeah, it smells off... What's in it?

[what gives it... that particularly weird stench]

It's rice and eggs, with a type of herb, something Yashiro-san brought in.

( he's not too upset about subaru not eating it, but that doesn't stop komaeda from stirring the bowl, and then picking up a bit with his chopsticks to hold up to amami. )

Say "aaaah~"

( komaeda believes in his ultimate to discern the taste. )

( oh jeez, sorry ko, but amami's putting up his hands in front of him and shaking his head like noooo as he backs up some. not today, satan. )

Ahaha, sorry Komaeda-kun. I filled up on the hot chocolate and cookies already, I don't think they'd mix too well with real food.

( or something like that. he does... give a kind of headtilt though, because he wasn't expecting such an earnest attempt. komaeda's attempt at kindness, again, perhaps?

except, with those chopsticks so close to his face, he can see what komaeda's actual ingredients are, and...

...oh. )

You should at least eat what you tried to dish out, Amami-kun.

( looks like a coward to him, and while komaeda does respect his ultimates, he also believes they should indulge. )

I've watched you the entire night, you haven't ate a thing.

( but he hands the food to subaru to take, a smile on his face as he leans forward to whisper in the idol's ear. )

[subaru makes a Face about what's in his hands now, and he hums like it's almost a chore at komaeda's whisper. really, really... okay]

Don't tease Ama-chan too much, Maddy~! Nene gave him something to munch on when you were... "cooking".

[cooking... okay. he's gonna set the plate aside, just because he doesn't want it in his hands]

A~nyway! Truth or dare, Ama-chan!

( he claps his hands for amami, cheering him on because that's all he can do here. )

Tease? The things I do aren't bothersome to Ultimates at all, I'm too incompetant to get under their skin...

( which goes without saying how he sighs, then looks down at the ground slightly defeated.

...

head lifts up and he smiles again. )

You can do it, Amami-kun!
