[Masaomi arrived back from his mission late on the 16th. Very late. He crawled up out of things, feeling his newly un-bleached hair. Admittedly, it was probably a stupid payment. He probably could have mixed things up a little more, perhaps gotten another reward, more participation points... but no, no. Ultimately, he's not dissatisfied with this result. He hums to himself in the very late into the early morning night air and shakes his head. He's still feeling grim, he's still not 100% but... this is a rebirth. He's no longer the General of the Yellow Scarves. He still has duties, but him and Saki are exes, and the circumstances around that don't matter. He has a new girl he really likes, he has a new life to lead here, new friends, and a new found trust with Mikado, even if that isn't perfect.

Yes. It's not alright, but it's... okay. It's very okay.

The perfect time to be reborn. So he actually has a somewhat positive attitude, a purpose, as he goes back to his old apartment. It's late, but before going to sleep he packs up all his things (which ignoring food and discarding a few clothes he's able to able to fit in one box... including the broken cell phone. Well, whatever. Sure, he only ended up staying on night with Law before he left for the mission and he's not sure if he's comfortable there again, but he'll find somewhere to live, some circumstances to make it happen. He'll start everything... tomorrow.]

[Action // Forward Dated to Tuesday (17th)]

[And sometime about midday tomorrow, Masaomi is in the square It might be a bit dubious to recognize him even if you know him because his hair is dark brown now instead of the blonde people might have been used to (that was dyed okay) but he's back to being a peppy version of himself. Namely, right now, he's leaping up onto the fountain, climbing up onto it and then shouting for the plaza to hear-]

Heeellllooo~ Luceti~!! Boys and girls, particularly the ladies- aaah! Yes, particularly those, but guys too, who wants to go to the hot spring?! It's cool and it's stressful now and I'm sure some of you want to go, right? [He puts a hand on his ear as if expecting some cheers and shouts, even if none come he snaps his fingers and somewhat less loud, assuming he has some people's attention by now] Of course!

I promise not to peek, I'm just not that kind of guy! But we should make a party of it, right?! Right?! Ah... actually...

[He drops now, to the edge of the fountain and then skillfully leaping onto the ground itself, adopting a thoughtful pose. A very thoughtful one, stroking his chin] I do say ladies, and I mean that! Buuuu~t before I break any more hearts, I guess this is the time to mention that I, Masaomi Kida [And he puts a hand on his heart, and puts on a woeful expression] have a secret crush!! Try not to die of shock, I promise to still be sweet to you!!

[And then he bursts out laughing. Yes, he's forcing himself, but he's so back.]
