1x1 with Prince Endymion

[M2627]

Kyo - Tokyo - Disbelief

"The royal family kept sending me to psychologists because they thought I was depressed and slightly confused. I ended up scaring them all off." She became a nightmare for them and was written off as an impossible case. The entire castle was terrified of her. If they weren't, they would ask her to talk to someone. It didn't work like that at all. Spirits only resided in graveyards. "You are reborn? It reminds me of a legend from my land where two souls are reborn every time the land is under threat. It seems like a curse. They always get another chance at life, but they never rest..." Kyo couldn't believe it. Just when she thought her own sense of fashion was terrible... "Of course I meant fashion-wise. I take back my earlier take back. And if others like it, then why haven't seen anyone else wearing it? Outside of this "cosplay" thing... We should look somewhere else. Somewhere with decent clothing."

Mamoru Chiba ~ Tokyo ~ Slightly uncomfortable

"Oh." Mamoru took a small step back, hoping she wouldn't notice too much. She was certainly an interesting character he had run into... He understood that all of this was obviously just a part of her people, but he still felt slightly... Off. Why would people send her to any sort of doctor since they obviously had to have known more about whatever Kyo was than he did. "Currently on the first time I've been reborn, but yes. For me it's a bit different. Normally, one's soul isn't brought along with the rebirth, at least, not in a way that's noticeable. What creates the cycle of rebirth is the powers and a special kind of star seed called a True Star Seed, or a Sailor Crystal. Once the current holder of the True Star Seed dies it's sent to a place it rests until it's time for the power to be reborn once more. However, in my case, as well as Usagi's and others, but mostly Usagi and mine, we were reborn with a soul of the past as well. We look just like them, have their memories and everything." Mamoru looked at the best again then gestured for Kyo to follow him. "You're the one who stopped! There's better shops down the road. Look in the windows and mention if you see something good. If not, I'll just bring you to some of Usa's favourites."

Kyo - Tokyo - Slightly relieved

Kyo noticed his step back. She was used to people being scared of her, but no matter who it was it bothered her. She wasn't insane. "Hylians tend to associate death with negative emotion and problems. That's why. The problem was with them, not me. I was a normal Sheikah child. But it's strange by Hylian standards." She almost bolted out the door eagerly. Thank the goddesses this was over. At least the leather section was. Now what else looked decent? "Okay...." Kyo wasn't exactly sure what to say to that long story. What was a Sailor Crystal? Or Star Seed? She wasn't going to ask. "Sounds a lot more complicated than how it works in my world. They have no memories of their past lives. But they do resemble their previous incarnations." She wasn't sure what store to choose. This was going to take too long. "Let's just check out the stores Usagi likes. This has already taken too long."

Mamoru Chiba ~ Tokyo ~

"Isn't death associated with negativity in most cultures? Most cultures honor the dead, but the idea of death is often a negative one. Sheikah... I suppose what's normal to one is weird to another. Even within the same culture..." Mamoru shrugged. He followed after Kyo and looked around, leading the way down the street. He almost stopped in front of OSAP, one of Usagi's favourite stores, but remembered it was jewlery so he kept walking. "I guess it's complicated. I'm not as well versed in it as Luna and Artemis are... I can remember every moment of my past life, every word he said, everyone he cared about. It's helpful as it lets me know who I was but at the same time not as I don't know who I am now, if that makes any sense.." He nodded slightly and pointed out a shop, "That one is Usako's favourite clothes store. It's got a wide variety, surely you'll find something there."

Kyo - Tokyo - Eager to get this over with

"Most, yes. Death comes for everyone in the end. Why be sad? You can join the people you love who've passed on before you..." She trailed off. If she died here, would she go to this world's afterlife? She couldn't see her parents that way. Not at all. And she'd never see the guy she liked again. She couldn't die here. She had to gpo home. Zelda was probably worried sick. And her few friends. "I wonder if he misses me at all." Kyo immediately shook her head as if dismissing the thought. Why would he? "As I said. It seems like a curse, from my perspective." Kyo pulled the glass door open and was greeted by a cool gust of air. It was fascinating. How did they pull this off? She shook her head again and turned her attention to the clothes. A navy blue sleeveless vest, pair of blue shorts made of odd rough material and the ends rolled up a couple times: it looked like it would end just over her knees. A pair of odd shoes with neon-blue stripes. "Would those articles of clothing work?"

(She's talking about a tank top, jean shorts, and sneakers.)

Mamoru Chiba ~ Tokyo ~ Somber

Mamoru sighed softly, listening to Kyo. Why be sad? He'd just be reborn again. Hopefully this time he wouldn't die too early. He had seen his future, what may be as long as things go right. If everything stayed on track, the future he had seen would come true. "The only person I've loved is Usagi. I'm more likely to pass before her. I'll just be reborn." He could think of no one else he'd care to see in an afterlife if he could live in one other than Usagi. If Endymion's love for Serenity continued in his next life, he knew he'd see her again then. He looked to Kyo confused, "Who now?" Mamoru studied the clothes. Some tank top, denim shorts and sneakers. Not even close to what he thought she would try to get. "If you like them and they fit you, let's go bring them up to the counter so I can pay."

Kyo - Shopping district - Remniscent

Kyo stared absently at the tank top in her hands. Would she ever get back? Would she see him again? And Zelda? Hell, she'd even be happy to see Link at this point. And she didn't like him much. She absently checked the size and it up to her body to check. It seemed like it would fit. Her only unease stemmed from this being her first time. But it seemed right. "I think it fits. I've never done this before." She placed them on the counter, still lost in her thoughts. Kyo finally snapped out of her daydreams when Mamoru spoke again. "Huh?" Only her ears turned a shade of faint pink. "Oh, j-just a friend back home.... Don't think about it. Talking about him won't get me anywhere."

[Prince Endymion]

Mamoru Chiba ~ Tokyo ~ Still somewhat Somber

It seemed the both of them were lost in their own thoughts, barely paying attention to the conversation between them. Mamoru wondered what was on her mind. She probably missed her home, he didn't blame her. He knew what it was like being away from home, both by choice and by force. He never really missed Tokyo itself. He never had any strong ties or good memories here, what he missed was always the obnoxious blonde haired girl and her cheesy smile. It was because of her that he didn't feel so lost in the busy city. Once the clothes were put in the counter, Mamoru pulled out enough yen to pay for them. It wasn't too much, thankfully. Usagi tended to blow through his wallet with just one dress. Once they were paied for, he handed the clothes to Kyo. "If they don't fit, we can exchange them." Hearing her talk about her friend, he smirked. "You know... It sounds like something... Familiar. In your voice. Here in Tokyo we have a name for that. Not sure about your home~" He said in a teasing tone of voice.

Kyo - Shopping district - Embarassed

"S-shut up. We aren't together. I don't care about what people here call it. Drop it." Kyo took the clothes without another word and headed for what the lady at the counter called the change rooms. The locks took a bit of fiddling with, but she finally figured it out and locked it. It took a while to get all her armour off, the shinguards, gauntlets and breastplate. She hated taking long to get changed. Her battle gear was usually practical, and she had no need to take it off back there. Except for here. She hurried to get everything else on. The tank top had a high collar, to her relief. It didn't show anything. The shorts reached almost to her knees, but not quite. Everything felt strange, evdn if it fit perfectly, but she'd have to get used to it. What she missed most was her breastplate, without it her chest was smaller. She ignored it. No time to be so self-conscious. Kyo snapped her fingers and her uniform vanished. It was a trick Saori taught her. How to store things in the shadows and pull them out again. It was definitely useful now. She stormed out of the change room without a word and to the exit. Mamoru better not ask about him again.

[Prince Endymion]

Mamoru Chiba ~ Tokyo ~ Relieved to get out of the store

Mamoru held up his hands in defense, chuckling softly. He'd drop it for now, but he'd be happy to bring it up again should she slip up while talking again. He waited by the counter for Kyo to exit and let him know if everything fit fine. She was quicker than Usagi, thankfully. He didn't want to wait too long. When she stormed out he was a bit surprised, but since she left the store, he expected the clothes fit fine. He nodded to the woman behind the counter, knowing he'd be back eventually and exited the store. "Alright... Now we can either get right on with trying to figure out as to why you're here, or I can show you around Tokyo. You mentioned playing games in 'Castle Town' right? There's a great arcade nearby. My best friend runs it actually. And if you need food or something, we can get it from the parlour that's on the floor above."
