interstellar5555 | kido doesn't do festive holiday music

Who: Kido and OPEN to her friends/people she thinks she owes.
What: The bestowing of gifts
When: IDK whenever the bestowing of gifts should occur.
Where: System Crash's Penthouse, Pride HQ, and quiet places she can meet up with her Virgo friends.
Warnings: Kido and Celty are gonna get pelted with crackers but otherwise...

[Kido's on a fucking mission to act like she's okay. She's like. Still all sorts of messed up, but she's trying to act like she's gonna make it.

A
And during the holidays that means a s h i t t o n of baking. She has been pretty busy in the System Crash penthouse the last day or two making like a trillion cake rolls. Oh god why is she doing this cookies would be easier, but cookies are also something everyone's going to be making.

Every even slightly imperfect cake is going to get shoved onto her bandmates. She can't give something imperfect. Someone might think she actually made it. And like she doesn't want herself associated with baking it fucks with the rebel image. But there she is in the kitchen, long sleeved tee shirt with rolled up sleeves, slippers and an apron, super concentrated like this is her life.

Don't judge her.

B
And like now she has to give them out. It's easier to do in HQ. She's not being tailed here. She's knocking on the doors of any friends (and anyone who she feels she owes a favor to), super casually like she's. Totally not been baking for the last too many hours straight.]

Hey. ... You like sweets right?

[THAT'S EXACTLY HOW YOU GIVE A GIFT.

B.2
Except for Junkyard Carnival. At some point, they're gonna find themselves dealing with cracker pentagrams all over their goddamn wall.

And a cheese platter, mostly because she's terrified of Luci, with a nice little card, written in red, promising it's not poisoned and also "PS: Fuck you, Xanxus."

How she got in there? A fucking mystery.

C

And of course there's Virgo to worry about. Most of her friends are Virgo. So there's going to be texts, to friends and, again, people she feels she owes a favor to.

Are you free? Think you could meet me at the music store on [street]?

Yup. That's not threatening and absolutely cannot get her in trouble if Lesedi reads it.

She's feeling pretty good about this all in all.

It's a great distraction from the glowing yellow eyes in her dreams that keep startling her awake.]

[He will fight.]

You can at least talk to somebody about it.

[No don't do that.]

Talking won't make it better. [She pauses with her tea, throwing a bag in the mug.] You sure you don't want any?

I'll take some tea.

[He's probably going to stay for a while.]

[She'll get out a second mug then. She sets it down in front of him.]

Be careful, or it'll steam up your glasses.

I can still see through them.

If you want to look like a dumbass. [Kido be nice to your friends.]

Not the worst thing that's ever happened to me.

[He puts the mug up to his lips, immediately steaming up his glasses.]

[She gives an unladylike snort and slips back into her seat.]

How do you front a metal band? [Worrywart baker dumbass mom that you are.]

The image doesn't fit the reality...

Or maybe I just scream well enough.

Could you imagine the tabloid this would make?

I would end up with a completely different demographic of fans.

Good thing we're in HQ.

Who said I won't take a picture and send it out? [She never would.] Apparently they're worth cash.

Edited 2016-01-04 05:32 (UTC)

Hope it's enough cash to be worth it.

[Not even worried.]

I'm pretty broke, honestly. I could use it.

We don't exactly get paid well on average.

Hard to live the high life like this. I guess at least rent and food are covered.

At least there's that. We can't work if we're starving.

You'd be surprised. [She shrugs. You can work through a lot if you have to.]

I doubt we'd be working as well as they want.

[He doesn't really remember being hungry.]

I don't think we're working as well as they want as is. [Jin is always pushing them, pretty much. The past few weeks have been a little better but... She doubts it'll last much longer.[]

Of course. But no reason to shoot us in the foot when we're mostly doing as we're asked.

[He takes a sip.

Except for Xanxus, he still remembers Santiago leaving him out in the cold when it came to healing the other label mates.]

They've done it before. [Man it is a good thing she was too dead at the time to know about that situation, really.]

They shouldn't.

[He still sounds like he wants to fight.]

Genos. Calm down. [... She's going to be saying that a lot, isn't she?]

[He takes another sip of his tea.

He does not look at all calm.]
