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?

They were adorable.... but the one thing Ronnae was very bad at?

"Okay! I like that idea soooooo.... I'll take that cute white ferret and the black one that's always playing with her! And ummm I want an aquarium with this fishy, and this one, and this one, Oh! And a couple of these cute ones! And a starfish, and that pretty fish with the colors!"

Compulsive buyer....

"Ronnae?" He questioned, giving her a sidelong glance. "You want two ferrets and a gaggle of fish and other aquatic life? Do you know how playful ferrets are and how much attention they need? You'd be best off with one," he said, ruffling her crinkled curls.

"And you have to make sure the fish are compatible or they will eat each other," he explained, pointing to the small labels on each tank against the wall. "Remember that you will need to buy a tank big enough to keep them all in and plenty of food plus collars, medicine..."

"I... I can handle it... B-but... maybe I should start off with one of the ferrets and a few fishies.... C-can.... Can you pick the ferret for me?... I don't... I don't want to be the one to split them up."

For whatever reason that he couldn't quite place a finger on, her words gripped at something in his mind.

Nokosi turned dark grey eyes to Ronnae and stared at her for a long time, gaze unwavering.

She couldn't bear the thought, could she? He could understand why not--if he had siblings he'd never have wanted to be separated from them, either. So what to do? Just because they were animals didn't mean they didn't have a tie to each other.

His eyes flicked back to the two ferrets hopping and rolling around each other, seemingly having the most jovial of times.

He didn't want to, either.

"Why don't you just get both, hm? I'll help you take care of them for a bit until I find another place, then I'll take one of them off of your hands. They'd still be able to see each other if one lived with me."

Ronnae looked at him for a moment, but a small smile slowly rose on her face before she gave a cheery nod.

"Mhm! That's a great idea Nokosi! Thanks~!!" she gave a little skip before hugging her friend.

"Yeah, no need for thanks," he said, circling his long arms around her waist. "But you're going to have to help me search for a new place, you know. A nice one, not too far from where you are now."

[ronnae.livejournal.com]

"Really?" She thinks for a moment before looking up at him curiously.

"Why? I didn't think that area would be to your liking. There's plenty of places nearby it, but it's generally expensive... I don't know why mama and papa decided that should be the place I live when we're struggling as it is."

He wasn't sure whether he should be put off or charmed by her naivity. It certainly wasn't something new, as she seemed to always be like 'this' when it came to vague phrases.

"I don't mind too much, you know. Besides, then we can bring the ferrets over more often when we study our GE classes together, right? And you shouldn't question things like that," he said, dropping one of his arms from her hips. "They do it because they want the best for you."

"I don't know.... I... I guess... S-sorry I asked..."

She suddenly turned to the fish, trying to hide her embarrassment, "W-well! T-time to choose my fishies~! And the tank! It has to be pretty! It'll be both a new decor, and a new set of pretty pets!"

[nokosi.livejournal.com]

Well now she was just acting strange. "Why are you apologizing? Didn't think there was anything worth apologizing about, bon-bon."

He pinched one of her red cheeks and knelt down beside her, head cradled in one hand. He watched as she awed at the fish in the bowl, a wry smile on her face.

"G'head and take your time."

"I don't know! I want those really pretty ones that glow in the dark, and the bio luminescent ones are really pretty too! And this one here looks so cute!" she points at the clown fish last.

"Looks like all of these can live together, I think those are the ones that I want Nokosi~"
