when you wish upon a star [Open]
Who: Aigis and Minato, Open!
When: July 1 - onward
Where: Blanc
What: Aigis gets something she's always wanted... probably.
Rating: PG-13? Potentially comedic nudity, but nothing more than that.
1) (Closed)
[The markets of Blanc were crowded and bustling on this evening, barely giving a second's glance to the blonde girl and blue-haired boy who made their way through the throngs of people. Aigis had noted the potions shop's location the last time she'd come down here, so it was simple to lead Minato there, but they largely walked in silence.
She was nervous. At least she thought she was nervous. This was a sensation she couldn't recall feeling before, a way that she felt antsy, like she had to move, like she couldn't stay still. Her computational cycles seemed to be working overtime, calculating potential outcomes no matter how likely.
Was this anxiety...?] Ah, it's just down this next street after the jewelry shop. Please stay close, Minato-san.
2) (Open)
[Aigis seems to be walking with a spring in her step. Or something in her step, at any rate. She's animated and lively, but ever so often she'll take a step and then suddenly wobble or even crumple to the floor with a little gasp. It's as if she's forgotten how her legs work, but how could that be possible?
Of course, the next time she stumbles, she stumbles into you.] Oh, I'm sorry! I-- I lost my balance, I'm terribly sorry about that! [Except when she fell against you, she didn't knock you over like she might have, were she still made out of heavy metal and ceramic armor. In fact, she feels kind of soft.
Kind of like a human?]
3) (Open)
[They say that Monday's meals in the cafeteria aren't great. In fact, they say they're downright awful. Today's meal is some sort of curry rice... you think. It's almost gelatinous. This definitely doesn't seem like curry, or rice.
That doesn't seem to be stopping Aigis, who is actually wolfing it down, somehow?] T-this... it tastes terrible! I really hate it! [She says surprisingly cheerfully, before resuming eating it.]
4) (Open)
[Oh, good old public baths. They're really underrated. The last time Aigis was in a place like this, she literally lay on the bottom of the hot spring, completely submerged. This time, though, she's actually wrapped in a towel from underarms to thighs, and is standing on the side of the bath, looking at the water almost anxiously.
She carefully balances herself on one leg, reaching out with her other foot (those who have seen her mechanical legs will note that the presence of feet itself is unusual) to dip her toe into the steaming water. Whatever she's expecting, though, this doesn't seem to be it.] --ah!
[It's enough to cause her to lose her balance. Splash.]
5) (Wild Card!)

no subject
Warm and cold. Those terms had no meaning for her beforehand.
She hears sounds. Not just detects them with her auditory sensors, she hears them, though it takes a moment before she realizes what they are. She looks up at Minato, her face pale and skin beaded with sweat, her eyes dilated; they take a few heartbeats to focus on his face.
She doesn't seem to have heard his question, but she reaches up with a soft human hand to touch his cheek.] Minato-san...? [She breathes, trying to gulp down air.
This was a fairly traumatic experience, it seems like.]
no subject
She's Aigis. She's always Aigis. And while he didn't think that a beating heart and fresh skin would make all the difference in the world, it is a change. It's a change he hadn't anticipated, not knowing how used he'd become to seeing the line of her synthesized skin along her chin, domes in place of her ears. And yet, as she is now...
Her hand is likewise soft, free of the hard metal that would peel back to reveal bullets if need be. He never found anything wrong with those hands, but he had come to associated them solely with Aigis. His eyes widen a little. ]
...Just take it slow.
[ He rests his hand on her shoulder, slowly and gently as not to startle her. He doesn't shy away from hers. ]
no subject
She knows what he looks like, but it feels different like this.
For a second, it seems like she's about to say something, the way she's taking a deep breath... but no, she's just focusing on breathing. She's breathing. She's never felt this before.] It... it worked...?
Did it work? I'm... I feel so strange...
no subject
It is different, seeing the lost look in her eyes. What is she expecting, he wonders? Maybe to focus on an object, pull up a reference and immediately understand the context, as opposed to stare and wonder. He's not sure, but she doesn't look afraid, just bewildered. ]
Yeah. It definitely worked.
[ He offers her his other hand. ]
Do you think you can stand...?
no subject
She takes his other hand. He's warm. Their hands press together, soft flesh.] I-I think so...
[She stands, slowly, though it takes her a moment to understand how her knees work. When she's fully upright, she... falls a little against Minato before straightening up.
She looks down her front, and gasps.] --I have feet!
no subject
He helps, offering himself as a crutch if need be, more than ready to accept her weight. She's infinitely lighter like this.
He surprise makes him blink, but as he looks down... ]
...
[ He smiles a little. ]
...Try wiggling your toes.
no subject
At first it's not working. She curls her toes and extends them, but it's all at once.
Slowly, however, as her new squishy meat brain begins to make sense of the signals she's sending and receiving, she begins to be able to move her big toe independently, and then the others.
A huge, bright, almost childishly-awed smile breaks out on her face.] M-Minato-san! Look!
[Also, she's still naked. Clothes might be a good idea.]
no subject
You are absolutely adorable.
She's figuring it all out one step at a time. The actual mechanics of wiggling his toes...he's never really thought about them. It's intuitive. But not for her, yet, she figures it out just fine. That's a nice smile on her, too. ]
You're an expert already.
[ How can he not smile at that?
But...yes. She is naked, even if she's got his coat over her shoulders. ]
...We should get you something to wear.
no subject
She tries standing more under her own power, less clinging to him, and then... looks down at her body. Considering that she hasn't even buttoned up the coat, it's covering, really, the bare minimum.
She does not seem embarrassed about this in the slightest.] Oh yes! It's socially inappropriate to go around without clothes on, isn't it?
How strange. I never wore clothes during combat when I was a robot, but it didn't matter then. I wonder why?
no subject
...It's a little different when you're human. [ Does he need to explain why? That'll be an interesting conversation. ] But we can find you a few things. You can pick whatever you want to wear.
no subject
Oh. It smells like Minato. That's why.] I see... I'm not sure I understand entirely, but it's usually not permitted for people to see members of the other gender unclothed, right? That's why Mitsuru-san and Yukari-san were so upset with you at the hot spring.
[She's still sort of grabbing his arm, though.] I don't know what would be fashionable for me to wear... oh! Do you think we should ask Yukari-san?
no subject
To her explanation, he nods. ]
Something like that.
[ Of course the hot spring incident...is something he'd rather not recall. Ever. ]
Do you want to give her a call?
no subject
Ah... I'll need a shirt, and something for my lower half, and-- oh, yes! Shoes! For my feet! [She's still kind of happy about the feet thing.]
no subject
And probably some underwear.
[ A pause. ]
...Yukari might be better at that, though.
no subject
Do you not want to help me find appropriate underwear, Minato-san?
no subject
...It's...to protect different areas of you...from your clothes.
[ CLOSE...ENOUGH? ]
...I can if you want me to.
no subject
Yes! That would be extremely helpful, if you wouldn't mind! Oh, wait... do you know much about women's' undergarments, Minato-san? [Hang on, she's never really thought much about this.] For some reason, I'm thinking that they're different from men's undergarments, but I don't know why I think that.
no subject
...Men and women...are built differently. [ A pause. ] ...Different attachments?
no subject
But the general shape of the body is still fairly similar, so you'd think that the underwear would be relatively unisex.
no subject
no subject
You mean for your penis!
no subject
[ ERP. ]
...Yeah. That's what I mean.
no subject
So we should go and look for women's underwear! [Still kind of clinging to him.]
no subject
Well...okay. At least he'll have an excuse to be in the lingerie section and not look like a creep? Not that he's spent...any time there in the first place. ]
Sure. We can do that. [ A pause. ] ...Along with pants. Or a dress.
no subject
Minato-san, I'm cold!
[This seems like it will be an interesting day.]
