"it is so not biased! how can you say that?" usagi scoffed, hand on her heart. "i don't eat just anything! i have foods i don't like! i can't help that your sweets are some of my favorite things!" she pouted at her friend before sighing. "two....just two....okay, minseo." she was giving her puppy dog eyes and everything to try to get her to change her mind. when that didn't work she just let out another sigh. "how long is that wait? i'm gonna starve to death...."

❛ if you say so, usagi, ❜ breathed the brunette, putting a hand on her hip and tilting her head to the side. ❛ — though i must say, your pallet for sweets is always a bit biased. you gotta admit that, ❜ the senshi said pointedly, smirking at the girl on the other side of the counter. sighing as usagi begged, minseo found her eyes rolling, unable to help it. usagi was just... hard to say no to sometimes. ❛ okay.... fine. i can't give you an entire plate but i can give you two more. that should be enough to hold you over until i clock out. think you can hold out til then ?? ❜

usagi was skeptical as to why mamoru would want to talk in private, but she was so lovestruck that she really didn't mind it. or much at the moment. she just took his hand and followed him to wherever he wanted her to be with a stupid smile on her face. she was about to inform him how she had been kissed before that night but then she had to pause. kiss? she didn't mention being kissed. how did he know that? now she was just giving him a weird look, unsure of how to move forward. now that they were in private, she didn't really have to hold back her questions, but she was a little nervous about finding out the answers to them.

she sighed, realizing she was still holding his hand, and dropping it so she could hug herself. "how did you know that?" she asked, looking right into his eyes. "mamoru....i never told you that. and....and it wasn't like there were a lot of people watching us. i'm not....i don't want to assume things, but i'm very confused." maybe he did just spot the two of them. yeah! that would make sense. she was so enchanted that night, who knows who was actually around when that happened? she wasn't going to let this moment taint her memory! "even if you did see it...what did you want to talk about? i have a full schedule of daydreaming here!"

❛ right right , forget that i said anything ! sorry ... ❜ though he raises both hands as if asking for peace , there's a grin on his lips that isn't very common of mamoru . few were the times when he genuinely wanted to smile , to laugh . granted most of those ocurrences had to do with cat and her weird antics , but he was fairly certain he'd been smiling more as of late . as of the past few months , to be exact . he wondered why .

as she rambled about the masquerade , the man raised his eyebrows ; it was definitely strange to hear her gush about , well , him to himself . comical even . ❛ ah , so you had fun . that's good , i'm happy to hear . ❜ he was , actually . happy and increasingly nervous by the minute , though there was a voice in his head urging him to keep going . ❛ well , if you wouldn't mind being nice to me for just a little longer , there's something i wanted to talk to you about , ❜ eyes wonder around the arcade , taking note of way more people than he'd like to be around for this . ❛ in private . ❜ mamoru had always been a private person but this whole situation begged for even more privacy , both for his sake and usagi's . offering his hand to her , he nodded towards the arcade's entrance . ❛ and you can rub the whole thing into my face if you want . you probably don't get kissed much , so it makes sense you're still thinking about it , ❜ he teased confidently . so confident in fact that mamoru failed to notice his little slip .

not even mamoru could bring usagi down right now. not when the man of her dreams had kissed her lips and revealed his name to her in her dreams. she didn't think anyone could bring her down from this. "no, i was not talking to the game! i was talking to myself, thank you very much." a smile graced her lips once again. she was sure her face was going to start hurting from smiling so much. "i am happy. i had a really good time at the masquerade ball. and everything you told me to worry about was for nothing....everything is working out the way it needs to and while i would love nothing more than to rub it into your face, i will not. i am in love, and i can be nice to everyone..." even stinky heads like mamo. in fact, she could be super duper nice to him. it was easy when she wasn't feeling any conflict at all. well, almost no conflict at all. she just felt so brand new, so wrapped up in her feelings that it was hard to let the burden of responsibilities by being a sailor guardian couldn't even get her down because tuxedo mask would be fighting alongside her too.

the more mamoru thought about it , he wasn't even sure why he came to the crown arcade so much . sure , videogames were cool but the stuff available was hardly his taste and if he had to choose between the arcade and the cafe , he'd definitely go with the latter . then again , he wasn't sure why he did most things in his life ; why he went out nearly every night searching for some dumb crystal , why he'd dreamt of the same person every night of his life and most recently , why he thought it was a good idea to kiss usagi at the masquerade ball . he felt dirty , like some asshole taking advantage of the fact that she had feelings for him — worse , a different him . for a guy who always tried to do what's right , he was doing a terrible job .

naturally , the only way to make things better was to come clean . to apologize , come clean and hope she wouldn't think less of him . she couldn't possibly end up hating him , right ? as he came up to her slowly , almost hesitant , mamo still did overhear her little mumbles . the tiniest hint of a grin dared to show on the corner of his lips ; at least she looked happy . ❛ you talking to the game , bunhead ? ❜ he teased . ❛ hate to burst your bubble but i don't think you'll be hearing back from pixels anytime soon . ❜ pausing , the man stuffed both hands into the pockets of his pants . ❛ you look happy , ❜ which somehow made him feel a little lighter , too .

"what are you talking about? i'm a great critic! usagi placed a hand to her heart, somewhat offended. "i can tell when food is tasty and when food is really not good. and your food is always tasty! so you shouldn't doubt your skills." she pouted at the idea of not being able to take the samples home. she really just wanted those good, good, samples now instead of waiting until later for minseo to come to her home and cook. she would starve to death by then! "can't i just have one plate? pretty please?"

minseo knew usagi would be the perfect test subject for her pastry but... then again, usagi ate just about anything so much as sugar was one of the ingredients. laughing at her friend, minseo grinned; ❛ — thanks usagi, can always count of you to enjoy what i make. though, i'm not sure i can really rely on you to be a food critic... so much as just a food consumer. ❜ teased minseo, dusting her hands off on her apron, leaning her hip against the counter. ❛ usagi, i can just come over and... bake for you, you know. if i gave away the rest of my samples to you, i wouldn't be able to get well rounded feedback.❜

It all happened so fast and Usagi could hardly process what was happening. At least she didn't think she could. But as they rocked on that boat with their hands held it all became so clear. Sailor Mars. Rei was Sailor Mars. A thing that should make hardly any sense made crystal clear in an instant. She could feel their bond, their love and friendship, through their hands and it was so beautiful that Usagi found herself weeping. When she opened her eyes and was back to reality she wiped her eyes to find that she had really been crying. Sniffling, she watched Rei kneel, feeling a mixture of gratitude, appreciation, trust, and above everything else, unconditional love. She knelt in front of her friend, her Rei, and placed her hands on her shoulders. "I know," she whispered softly. "And I, Sailor Moon, pledge to always fight for love, justice, and the greater good of the universe. Together we are strong."

It was easy to infiltrate Usagi's shield, maybe that was because she was like an open book, or the fact that they had a strong bond. Either way Rei was mentally right there on the boat with Usagi. As if they were both trailing water made of starlight. Rei's mouth went agape as to say something but was quickly quieted by what they were both seeing. The water began to ripple rocking the boat, Rei reached out to clasp Usagi's hand before they were both thrown into the lake. However the moment Rei's hand met Usagi's it was like something clicked. Their united hands began glowing--Rei's mind receiving flashed of images--of Usagi. Of Sailor Moon. They were memories. There were others but she couldn't make out their faces, only Usagi. Rei's chest tightened and her breath hitched as she opened her eyes and was met with reality again. Sitting in her apartment in front of her friend. Rei let go momentarily, kneeling in front of the sailor scout. "Sailor Moon, my friend, guardian. I pledge my loyalty to you now and until the stars above us all explode and fall from the heavens."

"more like a masterpiece in my mouth!" usagi finally said, swallowing the bite she had been savoring for once instead of shoveling minseo's food like she was a starved woman. "my taste buds are dancing! a romantic waltz...like at the masquerade...." usagi let out a dreamy sigh. the timing really was everything. "can i have more please? like an entire plate? and maybe another plate so that i can take it home...if they make it home..."

❛ — good ?? bad ?? the most incredible thing you've ever put in your mouth ?? ❜ grinned minseo proudly as the watched the other with glittering eyes, hands clasping together as she was practically bent at the waist watching them from the other side of the counter. minseo always got herself into trouble when she brought new pastries into the cafe, mainly because she gave them all away as 'samples' and didn't take a dollar for them. ❛ c'mon, stop chewing and swallow so you can tell me what you think already !! ❜

usagi wasn't even paying attention the video game anymore. she honestly didn't know why she even bothered coming when her heart wasn't in it. no, her heart was daydreaming of the masquerade, of her kiss with tuxedo mask...it was the only thing it could think about. ever since that night, things have been so different. her dreams even more vivid and the names of the people in her dreams were starting to be revealed....endymion...tuxedo mask's name was endymion. she wanted to sketch that name everywhere. she wanted to sing it, but it wouldn't sound so good coming from her voice. now all that needed to come together was the rest of it. it all felt so close...at the tip of her tongue...yet it just wouldn't form correctly on her lips.

she hadn't even heard mamo come up to her. she had just been staring at the game over on the arcade game with a dreamy sigh. "i really kissed him..." she mumbled. "and i haven't seen him since...what a mystery..."

Usagi did as she told, closing her eyes with a small smile on her face. She took the big breaths and she swore she felt like she was floating after the third. Rei's voice was so calming, and it eased any further nerves she had about doing this. She really was just so incredible. As the images Rei was describing started to fill her head she couldn't help but take a second to admire the scenery. the moon really did guide us all. Usagi has been relying on its power and strength since she was a child, even more so in her adult years thanks to her sailor guardian duties. She wished she could begin to explain to Rei the way the moon guided her, but that wasn't the focus right now. She had to listen and feel and do whatever Rei asked of her. "I can see it," she said firmly. "It's such a lovely sight...I've never felt more at peace."

This probably would seem crazy to most people but it was what Rei did best. Her grandfather had been the best teacher after all. She even had clients who were non-believers come to her appointments and leave with a newfound skepticism. These rituals were intimate so it was likely Rei would see whatever Usagi was holding onto, or vice versa if it was something she wanted to let go of. Then again she could see nothing at all. It was a game of random chance. "Close your eyes." Rei spoke in a whisper, her own eyes fluttering shut. "In three counts, we'll take in three big breaths and exhale them out of our nose." She began to count rhythmically, making sure Usagi was breathing and exhaling at the same time as her. Once the breathing exercise was out of the way Rei continued keeping her voice soft. "Imagine your on a boat, the water is still...the moon is guiding you as it does all of us." She paused for a moment, picturing the same image. "Can you see it?"

it was sweet that mamoru was trying to protect her feelings, but he didn't know the full story and he probably never would. usagi herself was still learning it. what she did know, was that it was more than some infatuation; their souls were connected. it went beyond her, sailor moon, all of it; she couldn't pinpoint why she knew that as truth, she just did. "there is more to people sometimes then what you see," she said softly. "how do you not know that i'm not someone else?" it was the closest slip she was going to get to her truth, but still there felt like there was so much missing in it. the weirdly mature way she was speaking and reasoning had to be beyond her, but it just felt right leaving her lips. "don't worry about me, mamo, i know what i'm talking about. i've never felt more sure of anything in my life. and if i'm wrong....my heart might never heal, but for the sake of his happiness, i'm willing to take that risk. maybe i should give him the letter after all and rip the bandaid off, right?"

it should go without saying that mamoru never meant to make her cry . actually , he never meant to make anyone cry — quite the contrary really , but with usagi it was different . there was this strange urgency to console her and like most things in his life , he couldn't pinpoint why . in any case , any attempt at an apology was probably a shot in the dark , and it wasn't like he could explain himself either . ❛ ... right , ❜ he clears his throat , the vaguest impression of embarrassment coating mamo's face . having a secret identity had never been a problem until now . the change in her tone surprises him , eyes going wide ; it's familiar yet unlike usagi whatsoever . nevertheless , it brings a small and brief smile to the guy's lips , as it reminds him of someone else . someone who is the precise reason why he needs to be careful with this . ❛ i don't think you're crazy or delusional , usako . at least not in a bad way . ❜ he assures her gently , apologetically even . hates to be the bearer of bad news . ❛ i just don't want you to get hurt . this guy could be anyone , right ? ❜ he raises his eyebrows , ❛ what if ... he feels a connection to someone else ? ❜

wiping the tears that flowed freely down her face she held the letter close to her. deep breaths, usagi, deep breaths. she closed her eyes for a moment, taking a second to relax because she couldn't let mamoru get under her skin so badly that she revealed her secret identity. she had responsibilities that went beyond a petty fight. when she finally opened them, she felt a little better. he had read every word written, but he wasn't tuxedo mask, so there was nothing to worry about. her letter would only make even a hint of sense to him....at least she hoped that was the case. "if i couldn't tell him how i knew that, why would i be able to tell you?" she asked him, her voice surprisingly even. she had to channel her inner sailor moon here. "i do know him. and i don't care if that makes me look crazy or delusional or whatever words you're probably thinking. as you so kindly read....this is a connection that is beyond me. beyond both of us....."

SO , MAYBE THAT WASN'T his brightest moment but truly , was there anything more human than curiosity ? besides , if something was being said about him or his vigilante self , then mamoru wanted to know . especially considering he couldn't recall having run into usagi a single time during his nocturnal endeavors . he wasn't even sure he could see her being out so late at night . brows furrow together as the letter progresses to an eventual close , eyes staying on the paper for another moment or so . the content was ... intriguing , to say the least . familiar in a way . ❛ ... i'm sorry , ❜ he apologizes , then proceeds to slide the paper towards her on the table . he wouldn't be surprised if a few nosy people were staring , especially after usagi's scream . why did she have to be so loud ? ❛ this ... tuxedo guy , how do you know him ? ❜ he asked , gaze cast down to the tips of his shoes , practically avoiding usagi at all cost . the only thing dumber than stealing her letter would be revealing that it was addressed to mamoru himself . ❛ assuming you do . ❜

Usagi was rattled and she knew the person to go was Rei. Maybe a holistic therapy appointment was the right move. She knew she seemed like the last person on the planet to want this kind of service, but she trusted Rei more than anyone else. She knew what she told her would be fact. The moment she stepped into Rei's space she was pretty scared, she wasn't going to lie. It probably showed all over her face how nervous and skittish she was feeling. But she knew this was right...she didn't know why she knew this was the right thing to do, but it was. She had to trust her instinct and let the moon guide her forward like it has been. She took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, giving Rei and nod as she got comfortable. "I'm ready," she said confidently. She could handle this. With Rei guiding her, she knew it will be right.

Rei was surprised by Usagi's sudden request for a holistic therapy appointment. Bunhead never seemed the spiritual type--it didn't matter though. It wasn't Rei's place to judge. If anything the young priestess was a bit excited to show Usagi exactly what her grandfather had taught her all those years at the Hikawa shrine. Whilst Usagi sat upon her living room sofa Rei went around the room quietly lighting candles. A high frequency meditation playlist played in the background to set the ambience. Music wasn't always needed in a session but Rei found it the easiest way to get into a mediated state. Rei closed her eyes for a moment as she lit the last wick, exhaling all the carbon monoxide from her lungs. She then moved towards Usagi again, kneeling in front of her she blew out her match. "Ready?" Rei questioned with a slight smirk. A mischievous glance reflecting off her eyes from the dancing orange hued flames around them. She didn't really give her friend the run down on what they would be doing, she just wanted Usagi to trust her and follow her lead.

usagi's first mistake was writing this personal letter in a public setting. of course that didn't even register to her as a not-so-good idea until her letter was being snatched out of her hands by the one person on the planet she probably did not want seeing this aside from the person it was addressed to. she was frozen in fear as she watched him read it. She had never felt an embarrassment like this before and she embarrassed herself plenty on the daily. mamoru was basically reading her love letter to a superhero. he was reading about her dreams, her most personal thoughts; to be so exposed in a cat cafe of all places was too much. she tried to get the letter back after a pause that carried on for far too long, but she wasn't doing a very good job at it. "give that back!!" she said loudly before remembering they were in a very public place. "please don't read that! it wasn't for you! i can't....please, mamoru." she sounded utterly pathetic but she didn't know what else to do. she was already crying. that was just a given.

❛ NEVER SEEN YOU this focused before ... then again , ❜ a smug grin cracks onto his lips , ❛ i wasn't sure you were able to focus on anything ever . besides videogames . ❜ and he's all too proud of himself for the little quip , though he makes sure it's spoken in a tone less brash or rude than before . for whatever reason , mamoru finds himself a little more conscious of that now ; he doesn't want to actually upset her . quite the opposite , actually . after taking a sip from his iced coffee , he nods towards the paper before usagi . ❛ what's that ? ❜ he allows himself to glance it over , eyes eventually catching sight of two specific words . tuxedo mask . ❛ ... excuse me , ❜ setting the drink down , he allows himself to snatch the paper from her and properly give it the attention it deserves . it's only fair ; after all , it seemed the contents of the paper had to do with him .

task #003: absence

to tuxedo mask,

i know it's weird for a girl like me to write to a hero like you, but i have some things to get off of my chest. we are a lot closer than you think....but for the sake of this letter i can't tell you why. at least...i don't know if i should. there is so much i want to tell you....but i don't even know how to find you unless there is bigger tasks at hand. so for now, i write this knowing it will probably never go to you. and that's okay! there's so much going on in my mind and if i don't tell you somehow, it is going to drive me crazy.

okay, here goes.

i think i love you. i know that sounds insane, but hear me out. before i ever really saw you....i've felt like i've always known you. ever since i was little i've had these dreams; dreams that you are a part of a lot of the time. in these dreams i'm much older, at least, i look aged by something or some form. we're in a world that doesn't even seem real. crystals and magic and starlight fill the atmosphere and this version of me only ever has one goal; to find you. when i find you, you're definitely you...but different too. a warrior to this celestial princess i find myself looking like. we meet at the fountain a lot....though i have no idea what any of that means. most of the time these dreams are lovely, even when i wake up feeling this intense form of longing....something i never quite could understand. why do i feel like i know you so well? why do i feel so drawn to you? every time i try to live my life i have those dreams and then i'm finding myself hurting people who wanted to give me a shot because my heart simply belongs to you.

there's more to this story though, isn't there? while the dreams are lovely most of the time, sometimes they are the opposite. i'm searching for you in those, running towards an unknown enemy. my heart is screaming for you, knowing that something bad is going to happen. and then.....i don't even like saying it. writing it is too much too. but....i have a feeling you know how it ends. how it always seems to end. no matter how many times i feel like i see our connection, it always ends in the most ultimate and tragic ways....why do you think that is? i know you can't answer me and i really hope i never have to worry about that answer but....it breaks my heart every single time.

i've only ever found myself drawn to someone the way i am drawn to you in my dreams once. someone i never thought i would imagine feeling any type of...feelings for. it's confusing. i know you both aren't the same person....but sometimes it feels like you are.

the moon guides me to you. i don't know why or what that even means....but hopefully someday i'll get an answer to that at least.

yours,

usagi

Usagi had no idea why she was doing this. She jumped at everything on a normal day and she had sworn she had gone through the nicer maze but once people had started popping out at her she has learned that was not the case. She had been running blindly for what felt like forever before she stumbled upon someone and even they made her jump. "Gah! You scared me!" Usagi whined, tears already in the corners of her eyes from the crying she had done moments ago. "Why are you lying there are you gonna jump up and scare me too? I don't wanna be scared!" She held herself, trying not to start rocking back and forth. "Wait! To die? Are we gonna die in here? I don't wanna die either!!"

"I can't go on - I can't... how is anyone supposed to make it out of here without having a heart attack?!" Morgan wasn't sure who had stumbled upon them in the maze but they didn't seem to be covered in masks or fake blood so that was a good start. "Just leave me here, there's no hope..." Dramatic? Yes, of course. But that was Morgan's entire schtick. That and chaos and gossip but that wasn't relevant right now.
