sailor_v | Minako's Ghetto Inbox for Genessia

From:

Minako-chan!

It's an emergency!

I need your help urgently!

[ Except she sounds way too excited and happy for it to be about anything dire. ]

From:

sailor_v

[Is it sad that Minako immediately knows it's not scout business, because Usagi would never call her about that? ...Maybe a little.]

This is Minako, ready and willing to assist! ...So what's up?

From:

eternal_sailormoon

[ Breathlessly, excited: ]

I've made this friend here whose name is Dray and he has cat ears and a tail and he wore this really pretty dress on Halloween and he's super nice and offered to make me dinner and liked the dress you picked out for me and he has a BOYFRIEND but he -

- Minako he never has been on a date before! And -

We need to make sure he has the best date ever!

From:

sailor_v

Then you were right to call me, I'm an expert.

[As if Minako's been on a date before in her life, please. Usagi's had more experience than she has.]

So...he's a cat guy who likes guys. Not my usual clientele, but I can work with this. When do we start?

From:

eternal_sailormoon

I knew when he said he needed help with a date I *had* to contact you because you are the expert of love and justice!

[ If anything it sounds like Usagi is getting more excited ]

Let me see when he's free and I'll send you a text!

From:

sailor_v

Sounds great! Maybe we can all meet for lunch. That sounds like something a professional would do, right?

...Is he hiring me, or is this pro bono work?

From:

eternal_sailormoon

.... I didn't mention anything about money.

[ Usagi first sounds confused, then apologetic: ]

B-but! I can pay your fee for him! I think he deserves the best service!

From:

sailor_v

Nah, that's fine. This is for a good cause, after all! But he can buy us lunch, and then we'll call it even.

From:

eternal_sailormoon

That seems fair!

[ And it won't use up her dwindling supply of red bills, either. ~~She needs to figure out how to get more at some point.~~ ]

Thank you again for helping us out!

He seemed super nice, and I want to make sure he gets the best date!

[ And she has to live vicariously through others since Mamoru isn't here. ]

From:

sailor_v

Yeah, it was really sweet asking someone out so boldly.

[She sighs, resting her chin in her hands.]

I wish someone would ask me out like that. I'm so jealous.

(( ooc: context ))

Hello Minako Aino! I understand you run the business Aphrodite Lovematching & Arcade! I saw your ad and I was very impressed.

I'm texting you on behalf of a friend, Prompto Argentum. His business the Flash Bandits would love to do photography for your upcoming date option!

Please call him at < NUMBER > if you'd like to hire him!

Thank you for your time!

- Takumi Terasu

From:

sailor_v

Hey Takumi! Thanks for the tip. Prompto's awesome, I've met him before. I'll be sure to give him a call and let him know we want his crew on board!

From:

bright_imperius

[ The voice on the other end is cheerful ]

Thank you, Minako!

I appreciate you giving me a call back, by the way.

[ Sounds a little sheepish: ]

Prompto's just a little nervous about the new job, I think. He needed a little push.

From:

sailor_v

Yeah, I know he can be shy. But hey, he knows me already, it can't be too bad if we're working together.

Are you going to the party?

From:

bright_imperius

I was planning on looking in, yes!

I don't think I'll offer myself up on auction, but - I was very interested in having a good time all the same.

From:

sailor_v

We've got some great games lined up, and live music too! If you like to dance, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Come say hi if you see me!

From:

bright_imperius

I will. Thank you, Minako.

I'm sure I'm going to have a lot of fun!

There's a Christmas card left at the front door that reads:

"May the Christmas season fill your home with joy, your heart with love and your life with laughter. Happy Holidays!"

And then it's just signed:

[Takeru had only spoken to her once, but he figured she could probably use at least one of the presents. The present was a simple cookbook called Absolute Beginner's Guide to Cooking with a note simply stating 'I figured you could use it.'

Along with that was a gift card for 20 redbills at Moonbucks because why not.]

From:

gamerrep

[Since Minako was her boss now, Chiaki knew what she had to do. To be honest she was going to get her something regardless but Chiaki had left a few presents.

A few dating sims games along with the console that they work on with a note simply saying 'Merry Christmas']

From:

Miss Aino! As you may possibly have noticed; we've a blizzard. I did do some traveling up north back home so this is not terrible for me; but it seems most places aren't keen on business. Sadly, we may have to reschedule.

From:

sailor_v

That IS a shame, but don't worry about it. The last thing I'm going to do is insist on going out if we're too busy shivering to enjoy it.

Are you doing okay?

[She's clearly doing fine. It isn't like she rushed home and removed her transformation just so she could answer his message and look like she hasn't been running around in the blizzard as Sailor Venus.]

From:

cursed_analysis

A touch lonely, but otherwise I am well~ I think I'm the only resident in the apartment complex.

[Which made sense as the Mayor did say the teleporter was probably going to go down because of the blizzard, and being stuck in the sky was likely terrifying for most.]

Are you well, Miss Aino?

From:

sailor_v

...You're WHAT?!

[She completely ignores his question as she now clutches the radio with both of her hands. If it could be strangled, it would be by now.]

You were supposed to evacuate that place, it's dangerous! The winds could slam your building into another one! Are you crazy?!

From:

cursed_analysis

I've been told genius and crazy are a fine line.

[Joking aside, he clears his throat.]

The flight system is actually quite robust, enough so I'm reminded of home. The only dangerous part is running out of food, I believe.

Hello Ms. Minako, this is Ted. How are your living arrangements? Is there room for one more? A young girl named "Rika", about your age. If not, are there any others similar to yourself that might be able to help?

From:

sailor_v

Hey, Ted!

[She perks up cheerfully. The days have seemed drab lately, but this guy was nice enough to send her a White Day present. He's definitely one of the good ones.]

Room for one more? Uh...

[She looks at something off to the side. It can't be seen, but there's definitely a sort of anxious, guilty look to her expression, even if she's still beaming.]

As long as she doesn't need to use the microwave or the stove, I think another person could live here with me just fine!

From:

youfool

Haha, why? Has monopoly or misfortune claimed them? Well, either way, I'm sure you two could work something out.

[On the one hand, Minako has vanished twice now, which is a sore spot for Rika. On the other, one as melancholic as her could use a sanguine foil.]

Rika's her name; here's her number. Forgive maladroit manners on my part; I've never match-made roommates before.

Between us she's in a delicate spot. Would you please be kind and offer her one better? And let me know how it goes, of course.

From:

sailor_v

Monopoly?

[She's curious ~~because it sure would be nice to blame her ridiculous lack of home economics skills on something other than herself for a change~~ to know what that is. Still, she's an honest girl, so she shrugs with a sheepish little grin.]

Probably more of the latter. I'll give her a call! It'd be nice to make some new friends. Thanks for letting me know!

From:

mynameisallen

[Allen had been flipping through the device, figuring it out as he goes and he came across the contact list. One name he couldn't help but notice was similar to someone he had heard of back in the last world minus the auction thing which he was put into in no thanks to a friend of his.

But with that, he didn't think it could hurt to actually say hello. Even if it might not be the same person they had heard of back then.]

Ah, sorry if this comes across as rude. But I couldn't help but notice your name and that it was similar to someone I heard about in the last place I was.

[He did think that really came across as rude.]

Because of that, I figured I would say hi and see if maybe we could get to know each other. [A pause as he was quick to bow his head.]

I should mention my name. I'm Allen Walker.

From:

sailor_v

[Minako has to wonder how many other versions of herself are running around out there. She's never met Allen before, he's too cute to forget! Ahhh, she really must be in the springtime of youth if she gets to meet so many handsome boys in the past couple of weeks. It's fate!]

Nice to meet you, Allen. I'm Minako Aino.

[She holds her fingers to her collarbone with a cheerful smile.]

Unless you were recently in Tokyo, it probably wasn't me. But I know there was a different version of me here previously, so who knows? It gets a little confusing sometimes. Did you arrive here recently?

From:

mynameisallen

I've never been to Tokyo. But I have been to a Japan before.

[he paused after he said he had been to a Japan before...That would be an awkward conversation topic considering what happened in his world with Edo at least, so he figured going to move off that subject.]

It probably was a different version, but it doesn't stop me from still getting to know you, right? [He gave a small nod if for a moment. He figured he would at least try and make friends while he was here... His... friends would probably want him to try and not just work all the time.]

That's right. At least a couple weeks now, so I'm still learning about everything here like this device. While it's not my first it's different in many ways, so it takes some getting use to with those features.

From:

sailor_v

[She laughs.]

No objections here!

[None. At. All. ~~Restrain yourself, Minako, you can't date ALL the boys.~~]

Yeah, it's a lot to get used to. But hang in there! It gets easier in time, and there's lots of fun stuff to do. You'll be all right! In fact, if you want someone to show you around, I can play tour guide for a day.

From:

devilishkaoru

Mina-chan~ I come bearing two things. One I have made you an outfit I want you to try on... Though not sure if the style will be to your liking.

But I think it would look perfect on you. Second of all I came across a karaoke bar and really wanted to go and since my friends from home wouldn't want to, I figured to ask you.

From:

sailor_v

[You know what makes Minako happy? Coming back to her desk to find that there's a message from a cute boy on her phone. What makes her ecstatic is that it sounds like he just asked her out on a date! So forgive her if she spends a few minutes jumping around her office yelling 'woo hoo!']

[Once she calms down and isn't short of breath, she smooths her skirt, clears her throat, and responds with a bright smile that absolutely gives nothing away about her happy dance just a few minutes ago.]

Hi, Kaoru! That's great news, I can't wait to see it! As for the karaoke? You're on. That sounds like a total blast! When do you want to meet up?

From:

devilishkaoru

How about after the carnival when I have a lot more free time?

[And it means a lot less making outfits then at least.]

From:

sailor_v

Sounds good. It's a date!

[Did he mean it NOT to be a date? Too bad, she's classifying it as one. Now she gets to go buy the perfect date outfit!]
