Once You're a Square You're a Square All the Way
Who: Usagi Tsukino (Serena Lapin) and anyone who wants to rescue her
What: No one warned Usagi just how serious Garnet's fans actually are about the whole... square thing // There s a Hair Monster that lives in Brad's Diner and it survives on milkshakes // Get a half off bouquet on your next visit!
When: All Day
Where: The flower store Usagi works at/Brad's Diner
Warnings: Rabid fans, mild violence
Notes: I’m more than happy to match styles!
A: Early Morning (The Attack)
Usagi Tsukino was not late.
Not so much a miracle as it was that Usagi finally remembered to set her alarm clock an hour and a half ahead of time to get there exactly on time. On her way to work, she didn't even notice the unusually high amount of people surrounding her. She didn't think much of it at all considering that it was early enough in the morning people were likely on their way to work and school.
She didn't even seem to notice how so many of them had square hair-styles and a lot of them were chewing bubble gum. But Usagi wasn't the sort to judge someone based on hair and eating habits. Honestly, she was the last to do such a thing on such subjects. However, when they all started whistling the same tune, Usagi admittedly got a little... well, honestly she felt a bit... weirded out? But no dark energy, no sense of magic, or anything that felt like she should be worried for her safety. The whistling in unison made her nervous but she was sure it was just the new pop single from one of the many bands she intended on rescuing.
Oh how very, terribly wrong she was.
Usagi blinked at the wall of people suddenly in front of her with square hair cuts. Oookay... When she asked them to politely move, they just sneered at her, still whistling and blowing bubble-gum bubbles.
Usagi made to turn and leave... only to have a wall of square hair cuts there too. Alright, last resort.
Except.
She gave a nervous laugh.
"Uh... i-is there something I can do?" she couldn't transform, not with all these people watching and not when this could be the work of brainwashing. In fact, Usagi's first fear was that this was the act of the labels and they found her out. She put her hand on her brooch.
Of course, that all quickly changed when she saw scissors, hair pins, and gel in the hands of the people surrounding her.
"How dare you talk to Keytar Mom after we WARNED YOU."
"W-What?"
"And then you had the audacity to talk to her at the charity event and take her food from her!"
"T-That isn't a-actually-" she put up her hands in front of her, trying to calm everyone down.
"If you're going to be near goddess Garnet YOU BETTER BE SQUARE!"
When they opened up their scissors?
Usagi quite calmly, eloquently, and rationally...
Let out a massive, loud, and incredibly shrill scream of panic, and kicked one of them in the face.
That had opened up the wall of people and Usagi used it as her chance, since she honestly couldn't risk transforming until she was out of sight. If she could just get around the corner! She let out another scream when she felt her head yanked back as they grabbed one of her tails. She turned around only to be slammed up against a wall.
"Don't do this!" forget it! She'd transform in public! She wasn't going to allow herself to have them attack her like this. Now if only she could reach her brooch! "GET THOSE AWAY FROM MEEEEE!"
B: Afternoon (After the Attack)
Were you looking for Usagi at "Thistle Do Nicely?" If you were, you will be promptly informed by Mrs. Ophelia that any and all information regarding her employees is not available and then would leave it at that. Which is to say, once 'Serena' explained what happened (looking a bit worse for wear but with all her hair quite intact) the older woman took it upon herself to protect her employee.
If you're very thorough, however, you'll find Usagi hiding in a booth at "Brad's Diner" far far away from the diner door and curled up with her third triple-chocolate, chocolate-chip milkshake.
Her hair was not in its usual buns, mostly because in the fray it had all come undone and she was basically hiding in her hair.
Or maybe you're not looking for Usagi, maybe you just came in to Brad's because the food, while greasy, was filling and the waitress Diana was gorgeous and a flirt.
In either case, there was still a giant river of golden hair attached to the head of someone hiding within it and making an impressive dent in her now fourth milkshake (this time strawberry).
Stepping on or near her hair seems to draw the hair monster to instantly shriek and shudder and try and pull all that hair closer.
C: Late Afternoon (Also After the Attack)
After six milkshakes and given plenty of time to fix her hair back into the two buns, Usagi finally made her way back to the flower store. She had to, she had a "family" to provide for and more importantly, she didn't want to let Mrs. Ophelia down. While Usagi didn't know if Terra celebrated Valentine's Day, the flower store was clearly gearing up for something.
While Mrs. Ophelia said that Usagi was more than welcome to go home with pay, Usagi didn't feel right doing that to the older woman.
So you will find Usagi right in front of the flower shop where Mrs. Ophelia can keep an eye on her and anything that should happen, passing out a single blue paper-origami 'Forget Me Not' with a ribbon around it with a simple tag "Don't Forget!" tied to it.
"All this week, Thistle Do Nicely is having a sale! Take this coupon inside and with the purchase of a bouquet today, get your next bouquet on your next visit half off!" she's trying to put a true smile behind it, but those who know Usagi or "Serena Lapin" better will know that it isn't sincere, it doesn't reach her eyes and please be so kind as not to mention that Usagi's clothes are somewhat... well... torn and snipped.

B
She'd been told by Mrs.Ophelia where Serena was only because of having seen her before, and knowing her as Serena's small, quiet, cousin Nora. She quite liked Mrs. Ophelia. She was nice, and she seemed to like Usagi very much.
She steppsinto the diner, large eyes darting until she finds the rather impressive pile of hair that is Usagi and goes to sit across from her.
"Are you alright? Mrs. Ophelia said something happened." A beat, and Namine says what honestly is rather rude, but Namine doesn't really do tact, mostly from not having learned it in the first place. "And you look terrible."
no subject
"I'm fine," the Hair Monster(tm) commented. It then sighed and two hands came out to part the hair. Usagi's eyes and then the rest of her face appeared.
"Don't be mean, Nora," she commented softly.
no subject
"But what happened?" She tilts her head down to better look at her around the utter mass of hair. "I'd like to know, if you'll tell me."
If Usagi wont tell her, she'll just bother the other people in the house until someone does.
no subject
"It...well... uh, I was cornered by really... um... fanatical fans. They were upset with me because I talked to their idol. Their idol is notorious for a certain hairstyle, and her fans wear that hairstyle too. But clearly... well, I have my own unique style."
no subject
"Fans?" She pauses and then she taps the table with her fingers, seemingly thinking. "That...seems very odd. Why do they care about hair quite so much?"
She really can't imagine, but then Namine has barely learned that braids are a thing, so honestly, it's probably not much of a surprise that this would join the list of things confusing her.
no subject
"But that's why, since you asked."
no subject
It was a little like Namine is talking herself through it, and then she sighed.
People confuse her when they're just behaving normally. Why do they have to do things quite so oddly.
"Mrs. Ophelia seemed worried about you" She said as a change of subject, though it isn't a particularly smooth one.
no subject
no subject
She obviously was worried when she heard something had gone wrong with Usagi, and so that is why she'd come at all. Namine was fond of Usagi in the best way she knew how to be. She was not sure, really, if it was the same way Somebodies feel, but she thought it might at least be something like it.
no subject
"Of course I would, Nora," she lost all of her melodramatics to deal with a real issue. "You're my friend. You're someone I care for deeply, if anything happened, I would come to you and do everything I could to protect you and keep you safe."
