Second Chance Meme!

[zouichi.livejournal.com]

Okay, rocks fell, everyone died. Too bad, valiant meatshippers! But the good news is that you've all be reincarnated!

...as baseline humans on modern Earth.

Maybe you're waiting at a coffee shop, and you spot someone out of the corner of your eye that looks strangely familiar. Maybe instead of strangers from universes far apart, you and your close CR are now childhood friends who have always been together. Maybe you meet a former enemy as a friend, or a former friend is now a bitter enemy.

Are you a college student? A high-powered lawyer? A kindhearted schoolteacher?

What would your life have been like had you been born under different circumstances, and you met your fellow crew once again? If you had a second chance? Would you still fall into the same habits, be a victim of the same misfortunes? or would you use the opportunity to be someone completely different?

Zouichi looks more embarrassed than anything else; he doesn't know how to handle praise. "Thanks. Um, you're in the drama department, right?"

Wait, was that creepy? He hoped it wasn't because augh.

He takes the flower, although he's not quite sure whether he should hold it or try and put it into his bag. No one's given him a balloon thing since he was like... eight or something.

Yup, I am. I'm Allie. [Offering him another bright grin at that. She'd probably offer him a hand too, but his are full now.]

This one of your favorite spots to draw?

"Kind of. Although I like the spot behind the gymnasium better -- not too many people walk by, and it's near that wooded area, so sometimes you even see like a fox or chipmunks come by. I think there's a family of foxes back there; I saw one or two kits one time. I haven't seen them since, though, so maybe they moved."

Wow, that's the most she's gotten out of him yet. He seems to realize this. "...I'm Zouichi. Um, nice to meet you."

[And that just gets a big smile out of her. All of it, about the foxes and getting his name, too.]

It's nice to meet you too! Officially. Since y'know, we've seen each other and all.

Oh, hey, can I have your flower back for a minute? [She just had a wonderful idea. At least, wonderful to her...] I'll give it back to you, I promise.

Wait, 'each other'? He hadn't realized she'd noticed him around, too.

"Sure." Zouichi hands her the balloon flower, curious. She has a nice smile.

[She pulls a Sharpie from her pocket as she takes the flower, writing a block of small, neat print and numbers near the base of the stem, and then hands the balloon back to him, still smiling.]

I have to go to class for a bit, but call me, Zouichi! [Capping the marker with a satisfied smile on her face, and waving at him as she walks towards the drama building.]

He has no idea what she's doing until she actually gives him the flower back, and then he just kind of stands there frozen in place. Oh, god, what is he supposed to do with her number?

Okay, she had specifically told him to call her, but... what the hell was he going to say? "Oh, hi, I thought you might want to listen to me ramble on some more about baby foxes, I don't think I did that enough the last time we talked"?

He bumped his forehead against the wall of a nearby building, sighing.
