With your baby's breath, breathe symphonies
WHO: Residents of Nonah #005, adopted members of Nonah #005, stray birds, stray cats, stray dogs, visitors to Nonah #005, neighbours of Nonah #005, people passing Nonah #005 on the street . . .
WHERE: Nonah #005
WHEN: Feb. 3
WHAT: Setsubun! Bean throwing!! Family dinner!!!
WARNINGS: Teenagers
[Demons outside!
Good fortune inside!
. . . or maybe just an excuse for not-at-all homesick teenagers to throw sweet-crunchy roasted soybeans around the rooms of the house (presumably to invite good fortune in and not just to make a mess), or at anyone who wants to play the part of a demon and be chased out. There's a few bowls of soybeans and paper oni masks around for those who want to join in on the fun.
Unfortunately, due to the absolutely deplorable state of the local supermarket, there's a decided lack of thick, unsliced sushi rolls. They tried, they really did. But as it turns out, defeat might not be a bad thing: instead of sushi, a large electric skillet and two platters dominate the dinner table. One is stacked high with sliced nappa cabbage, mushrooms, onion and cubes of firm tofu; the other has thin strips of beef, ready for the pan.
The first sizzle of cooking meat might just be enough to call out anyone still lingering away from the fun, but if not, at least two helpful birds will poke heads around doors. After that, it's an every-person-for-themselves battle of can you get that piece of meat just as it's finished cooking? Or will that mushroom be stolen just as the sweet soy sauce broth marinates it to perfection?
That's the fun of sukiyaki though, it's the best of family and celebratory meals. And there's been a lot worth celebrating.
Demons out. Good fortune in.]

Should've thought of that before you grew out your hair, huh!

[Maya does her best to scurry behind a wall-- but then eyes the couch, and dives for it. Clearly a couch cushion will make the perfect shield!]
no subject
[this is not what Maya means at all and they both know it.
when Maya dives, Hazel's instincts to constantly escalate the situation kick in and without thinking she immediately dives after her. what this has to do with shoving more beans into the other girl's hair is not immediately clear.]
no subject
And attempt to push Hazel back with it by shoving it in her face.]
no subject
and while that small amount of force would normally be enough to dislodge her, unfortunately for Maya she's found herself an anchor. and if you guessed that it was just grabbing fistfuls of the hotly-debated hair, you'd be sitting in a brand new Ford Fiesta right now.]
no subject
What are you even doing?!
[WHAT IS THIS GOING TO HELP??? Maya attempts to push her away, still, shoving harder against that cushion.]
no subject
the more Maya pushes the harder Hazel hangs onto her hair, determined now to make this a fight to the early onset baldness. the beans are almost completely forgotten at this point, it's just a war of attrition now.]
no subject
Letgoletgo-- jeez!
[THIS IS THE WORST]
no subject
[THIS IS THE WORST AND IT WILL NOT STOP UNTIL YOU VERBALLY ADMIT YOUR LOSS FOR EVERYONE IN THE HOUSE TO HEAR]

[WHAT IS THIS FIGHT EVEN ABOUT]
no subject
[IT DOESN'T MATTER. ONLY VICTORY.]
no subject
[LET GO OF HER HAIR]
no subject
[FINE YOU BABY with one final yank of hair Hazel releases Maya from her holiday torture and rolls off her, laughing all the way.]
no subject
[Pouting, Maya pushes her hand up through her hair and rubs at her poor scalp.]
You really don't quit...
[TAKING ON HAZEL IS NO EASY FEAT.... but she's gonna get her back.
Oh, she's going to get Hazel back so good.]
no subject
[haha yeah sure, what are you gonna do? dye her hair???]
