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.

"You heard her! Get out!" That should be enough to scare off the ones who are already crying over Garnet at least.
no subject
"I can't believe they really did that...." she mumbled. She took a deep breath and turned to Roy. "Ah hey, are you alright? You're clearly hurt!"
no subject
He puts his sunglasses back on, hiding his tired eyes again. "Don't worry about me. I just had a run in with a bunch of jerks a few days ago. Most of it is just bruising."
no subject
"If... are you sure you don't need help?" she didn't want him to remain injured, not when she could fix that so easily. But would they question him suddenly being healed? Would he keep it a secret? She swallowed.
"I'm sorry you seemed to have a run in too. Please, let me take you to Thistle to get you something to drink, at least."

"Safety in numbers," she smiled as she took his arm and started walking towards the flower shop. He looked like he was about to topple over with a stiff enough breeze, she wanted to make sure he was alright.
I only just realized the title of this post is a joke on West Side Story wow I'm slow
"Such a strange logic. If it can be called logic. I have my share of odd fans. I hope they don't do anything like that."
Feel no shame <3
"I think... I think I kinda understand, though I don't agree with it." She'd met enough fangirls of various people she had a pretty good grasp of their mindsets. Minako was a notorious idol stalker, herself.
"They wanted to, essentially, share their love of their favorite artist, and... well... unfortunately it was the wrong way to show it. It doesn't excuse them at all, but I think I get what they wanted. It's a good thing though that it was me who was attacked and not like, a little kid."
no subject
"I hope Mrs. Ophelia doesn't mind me dropping in this early."
no subject
"I just started, I can't bring this kind of drama to her shop," she whispered. What if they attacked the shop? What if they followed her to the shop? She'd really have to take action, then.
"Alex is going to be so mad at me..." especially since Usagi had allowed herself to even get cornered in the first place.
no subject
"Alex... Who is Alex?" He doesn't recall anyone at the plant store with that name. Someone else Serena knows?
no subject
"She constantly tells me to be more on guard since Vista would have more gang violence than our old town."
no subject
The scent of flowers grows stronger with every step now.
no subject
"But I know Alex will forgive me. She's amazing and so cool!" Haruka would forgive because it was in Haruka to do so... well, to forgive her, at least... Men not so much. "So many people find her amazing so I bet if the fans ever met her they'd become her fans instead."
no subject
Roy hobbles ahead to get to the door first and open it for her. "After you, Miss Serena."
