Did I get it?

[Usagi is flitting around and such with the communicator and trying to figure out if she's doing things right. The image shuts off and then only the sounds of her voice are coming through a few moments before the image turns back on. She presses something and then practically jumps out of her skin when an alarm starts blaring.]

GAAAAAH! TURN OFF TURN OFF! [She manages to get the alarm off and lets out a sigh of relief.] Wake up alarm my left foot, more like heart attack alarm.

[Usagi then gazed at the screen.]

I think I got it?

I'm gonna hope I got it.

Um so anyways! Hi! My name is Usagi Tsukino! I'm pretty new here! It's nice to meet you! [She bows to the camera which is awkward since it's on her wrist and that doesn't work. She scratches her cheek and opts for a wave instead.]

Um, so I know that we can make money-er Chroma with just hugging, holding hands, and kissing, and uh... all that but um, are there colleges or a job I need to get? [Don't get her wrong, NOT having to get one is awesome and she's not fond of school in the slightest, but Ami, Luna, Mamoru, her mom, and everyone else back home would be disappointed if she was so lazy... as much as she would honestly like to.]

To be honest, though, I've never worked a job so I don't even know what I'd be good at. Can I be a pillow tester or something?

Um, any help would be really helpful! Thank you!

I've been doing alright.

And there's no reason why you shouldn't get a job if you want one. Even if it's just to have something to do.

[ It doesn't help that she knows that demichroma is inherently worth less than regular chroma despite the fact that it was harder for them to get. But she knew that she and her fellow "moonblessed" were different than most other people in this society and that was the reason why that was the case. ]

Well... want isn't the right word. Unless there's college here that we can afford I suppose it's more... should? But I'm not even sure where to start with that kind of stuff.

[bubbleblaster]

[ Well, Aqua's not entirely sure if she followed that train of logic entirely, but she wasn't going to blame Usagi for feeling that way. ]

Well, that's something you're probably going to have to answer for yourself. But I don't think you should get a job doing something here if you don't like what the job is. Since our apartments are provided for us, and we're able to basically make currency just by... affectionate gestures, there's no actual need to have a job like there would be back where you're from.

[lightthedarkness]

I'll have to give it some thought, I know my friends and mama would be so disappointed in me if I just spent all day at home or being lazy or something.

[Not to mention, even Usagi would get bored.]

Are you gonna look for a job?

[bubbleblaster]

Well, no one said you have to just stay home and be lazy even if you don't get a job.

[ Aqua at least was keeping up with her training, especially since it was starting to seem like what she had told Makoto about not having to fight every month was likely to be false.]

But yes, I'm thinking about it, at least. I still haven't found many options that I'd think would suit me though.

[lightthedarkness]

Well, that is true, I do wanna meet more people and make more friends, oh! And try out all their cafes and video games here! And maybe get more of those cute little rabbits! Plus, I wanna redecorate the apartment a little, put some color in it with plants and better lighting.

What do you like to do, Aqua-san? They always say you should do what you enjoy.

[bubbleblaster]

[ Wow Usagi that was a lot of stuff to fling at her all at once. Though at least people could be pretty sure that she wouldn't run out of stuff to do. ]

Well, there's training, but if we're just talking about things like hobbies, baking is probably a more appropriate answer.

[lightthedarkness]

[Sorry, Aqua, she's quite excitable.]

Training? What kind of training? YOU KNOW HOW TO BAKE? You're always getting more and more amazing, Aqua-san! Can I try your baking, please?

[bubbleblaster]

[ Yeah she was starting to understand that. Still, that wasn't bad.]

Yes. Next time I bake cookies or a cake, I'll be sure to let you know. [ As for Usagi's questions about her training...]

My training is mostly in swordplay and magic.

[lightthedarkness]

EEEEEEEEE!!!!!! [So. Much. Joy!] Aqua-san, you are so amazing! I'm totally in love with you!

Magic? Seriously? You can do magic?

[bubbleblaster]

Wait, what?

[ That seriously wasn't something she was expecting to hear from anyone. Let alone that soon.But yes, let's focus on the other stuff they were talking about. ]

Uh, yes. I'm able to use magic. So are a lot of people here, actually. [ At least, she's pretty sure that's the case anyway. ]

[lightthedarkness]

You're amazing! You have to know that!

I mean, that's so cool! What kinda magic can you do? Can I see?

[bubbleblaster]

[Aqua's not entirely sure how her being "amazing" and Usagi saying she's in love with her match up, so she'll just ignore that for the moment. ]

Umm, well, there's a lot of magic that I can do, though most of it is either for attacking or defending against attacks. But if you want to see it, I can show you some of it sometime.

[lightthedarkness]

I would love to see! Where should we go so that you can show me?

[bubbleblaster]

How about the beach? There's lots of space there, so it'd let me show you a decent amount of what I can do without risking damaging anything.

[lightthedarkness]

Oooh! Yeah, I haven't been there, and I love getting a chance to enjoy the sun and sand! And I get to watch you be amazing!

[bubbleblaster]

Alright then! We'll meet there in a couple of days. Is there any day in particular that works for you?

[lightthedarkness]

Any day, really, I don't have a job yet. So my calendar is pretty open.

[bubbleblaster]

... Well, in that case, why don't we meet up tomorrow?

[lightthedarkness]

Yes yes yes! Okay! Is there anything I can do in return? Um, will it use up Chroma, should we hold hands or hug so you don't use up what you have?

[bubbleblaster]

[ ... Right. Using abilities here did use their Chroma. She has to stop forgetting that.]

Uh, yeah, it probably will use up some Chroma. I'm not sure if what I'll be showing you will be enough to be a noticeable drain, but minimizing the drain by holding hands is probably a good idea.

[lightthedarkness]

You got it, it's the least I can do for you, Aqua-san!

[bubbleblaster]

Thanks Usagi.

[God, she can't help but smile a lot whenever she's talking with Usagi. ]

Anyway, I'll see you tomorrow?

[OOC: Should we just continue the thread here or more it to it's own dedicated log? ]

[lightthedarkness]

Tomorrow! Yes! Oh my gosh, I can't wait! I'm so excited! I bet you look so cool!


[OOC: Here is fine since it's a new month]

[bubbleblaster]

Well, we'll find that out soon enough. See you tomorrow!

[The next day...]

[Aqua made it to the beach a little bit earlier than the time she and Usagi had decided to meet, mostly because she wanted to be sure to get some stretches in before she did anything, even if she was going to be showing off her magic rather than any of her other skills with her keyblade.

Either way, it was when Aqua was in the middle of one of her stretches that the other woman arrived, and as soon as Aqua sees her she smiles and slips out of it, waving over to her.]

Usagi! Over here!
