Event Eighteen.

[awashmods]

Who told you so, dilly dilly, Who told you so? ‘Twas my own heart, dilly dilly, That told me so.

ouch is one of the most intimate, romantic ways to be close to someone else. The Town knows this very well -- the Town wants everyone to be as close as possible. Perhaps that's why this bonding is so...aggressive. Because you're in for quite the shock on this otherwise peaceful day when you brush against the next person on your path. Maybe you're going out of your way to touch people. Maybe you've got a terrible urge to just see what's lurking in someone's heart. Maybe you trip over a conveniently placed rock -- whatever the cause, you're getting an up close and personal look into someone else's heart. Welcome to Awash's eighteenth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to make your own logs and posts for this event! If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

I believe you. [He nods, hoping to placate her.] We all change a lot from when we were five.

[It's... still really funny to imagine tiny Shiho judo throwing tiny Kaoru.]

[good_ideas]

[She hadn't thought he'd just believe her like that. And he probably doesn't really, is her best guess but for now she'll relax and take it.]

Exactly. We grow and learn that being so overtly violent doesn't work in every situation. And... we're friends now so I'd never to that to her. [Though she definitely still has the ability to execute a perfect judo throw on Kaoru even now.]

[theshowsover]

Sometimes your friends are the perfect people to do a judo throw to.

[He's joking! Really!]

But I'm sure she trusts you not to.

[good_ideas]

....well.... sometimes. [They're also good candidates for a thorough dowsing with a water gun too.]

And she knows I would never do that to her now.

[theshowsover]

I know.

[He's seen how they are together, and how Kaoru acts around her friends anyway.]

I'm just teasing you.

[good_ideas]

[She still pouts at that.]

So that's the kind of friend you are, huh.

[theshowsover]

[He tugs at his bangs.]

Well...

[That's a yes.]

[good_ideas]

You're lucky we like you. [Yes, "we". Because it's not just Kaoru that thinks he's a good friend at this point.]

[theshowsover]

I'm honored that you do.

[Just gonna sweep that under the rug.]

You're both pretty cool, too.

[good_ideas]

As if you’d expect any different from the two of us? [They’re awesome, amazing.

Monsters too, occasionally, but Shiho is getting better and better at truly loving who and what she is.]
