Trying to change my avatar but it's not working. Smh
Day 10 of my Christmas advent/challenge thing, and it only took until now to get used to doing this! Every day until Christmas, I'll make a post featuring either the character from the Arcana assigned to the day (apologies in advance if I fuck up their personalities) or an event of my choosing if no relevant character exists for the Arcana. Arcanas are assigned numerically, as in Fool (0) was the fourth, and the World (21) is Christmas Day. Stories have no set theme and they have no minimum length. Next Arcana is Hermit, which is Haru's Ayano Wakahisa! Nothing special about this one besides that I totally ship Kami and Ayano and it's probably noticeable in this, particularly at the end.
also I'm still kinda confused about their true feelings IC so please excuse me if I messed them up some howBasic updates and schedule can be found
here!
It didn't seem like the smartest thing to do in hindsight, but it certainly didn't seem fair to basically arrest her over carrying several wooden swords through the park. It seemed illegal to Ayano, actually. There were as dangerous as sticks and she wasn't even using them at the time. Sure, she was going to mess around with them with Kami, but even then, she wasn't going to attack anybody or anything so bringing them her down town seemed completely off-base. They had even taken away her cellphone when she attempted to contact Kami and explain to him why she was oh so late, avoiding looking like some no-show to the boy.
When they had first arrived at the police station and the older men began to chastise her for lugging potential weapons around in one of the scummier places (well, as "scummy" as a tiny town like Warakuma could get) and expecting to not look suspicious. It only got worse when they had gotten incredibly mad when she had attempted to text Kami. The elder of the two officers that had "caught" her stomped over to her and ripped the device out of her hands, "calmly" explaining that she was not allowed to contact people unless she had asked to do so. Ayano complied with their demands and requested that they let her call a guardian to come pick her up.
Upon calling her mother, the woman on the other side of the line responded with a worried tone, asking where she was and that she wanted to know immediately. Ayano reassured her mother that she was totally okay, but stopped to question how she knew something was wrong as she would have still been out with Kami as planned. "That Kaminari boy called," the woman explained through a deep breath of air, "and said that you hadn't shown up on time and he was concerned about you." Ayano thanked both her mother and Kami for it and went on to explain that she was being kept at the local police station on suspicion of carrying weapons, and that she needed her to come talk to them so that she can be free once again. Ayano's mother choked out a confirmation before hanging up with a "love you", to which Ayano responded to with the same despite that her mother had hung up sooner than she could react to.
It didn't take long for her mother to burst into the station with a dread-filled expression. Several officers went over to her to explain the situation, and as the explanation went on, the look on her face slowly changed to a mixture of relief and amusement. She went to the other room for a moment before returning, waving to Ayano as she walked over to the door, signalling that they could leave. As Ayano did so, she gave a "I'm really sorry about this..." that it only took a second for her mother to respond with a "Don't worry about it!".
Upon leaving the police station, Ayano noticed a teen boy leaning on the door to her mother's car. Kami had went over to her house to tell her and had went along with her to the police station to pick up Ayano, but had decided to wait outside for them to get back. Ayano squeezed her hands together behind her back as Kami met her half-way, scratching the back of his neck as he did so. "I'm really sorry for leaving you waiting at the park alone for so long, Kami. It just kinda happened..."
"It's no big deal, really!" Kami replied with an awkward laugh before taking a step back, looking at Ayano's mother for approval. The middle-aged woman gave a nod that was accompanied by a sly grin, and Kami turned back to Ayano to motion her to follow, and she did exactly that, trailing a little behind the boy until she slowly caught up. She felt incredibly relieved that Kami still wanted to hang out with her after that, let alone forgave her so easily. But there was no reason to stay rattled by everything that had just occurred and she decided to try to just enjoy the rest of the day with the boy.
