(Open) November Catch All
Who: Haru Okumura and you!
What: November Catch All Post
Where: Various Location
When: November
Content Warnings: Nothing really? Maybe vague Persona 5 Royal Spoilers
A. Merlaut Apartments
[All things considered, Haru had expected this world to be more chaotic. Granted, after everything she gone through, a change in scenery wasn't a bad thing. As she wandered around the lobby, there were so many thoughts running through her mind. How much longer was she staying here for? What was happening in her world right now? What about her other friends? She wasn't sure but she knew thinking such things wouldn't do her any good.
With a heavy sigh, she figured she might as well introduce herself to anyone else around here.]
Um, excuse me? I know this is an odd request but do you know where I can buy fertilizer?
The Heavenly Blanc Bar & Café
[It was odd how comfortable she felt in this café. There was always something about the smell of coffee and the atmosphere that always calmed her down. And yet, this was also different from the café she knew back home. The addition of a jukebox and a pinball machine was a nice touch.
Feeling curious, she made her way to the pinball machine. As she stared at the strange equipment, it was certainly nostalgic to see these as she played one when she was younger.
Should anyone look by, they could see the determined look on Haru's face even as she continues to lose!]
C. Aoba Shibumenosaki Underground Academy - Gymnasium
[As Haru looked at the gym equipment, she couldn't help but be impressed. To think, there was such variety in this school! She never thought she would be allowed to try them with her father around! It wasn't becoming of an heiress to attempt to lift such heavy weights or even try the treadmill.
Hoping no one would be around, she just had to lift one the heavier weights. If she could lift heavy bags of fertilizer, a 40 pound weight should be nothing right?]
You can do this, you must try! [She said to herself before attempting to lift it!]
D. Wildcard
[Surprise me! If there's a prompt you'd like me to write, let me know! Feel free to ping me at
rosemotifs!]

[You see that? That is the look of a proud girl wanting to show her worth! Then, she had an idea.]
Oh, how about this. If you show me how to lift weights properly, would it be possible for you to test my cooking skills?
no subject
Hell yeah. I’ll teach you whatever you want - lifting, cardio—- [Could this be an opportunity to recruit yet another member for his...? Aha...]
You know, a couple of us are about to get a volleyball league together too if you’re into that sort of thing. It’s a great game.
[Eh? Ehhhh?]
no subject
A-Are you sure? I'm not familiar with volleyball, I'm not sure how well I would be as a player!
[No seriously, did she hear that right???]
no subject
As far as I can tell, no one here is. You definitely wouldn’t be alone there!
[Perhaps an encouraging smile will convince you? He seems to be in a genuinely good mood just talking about the sport. Believe it or not, his default expression is usually a scowl (or at least it has been since arriving here).]
It’s a no pressure sort of thing, really. [He lifts the dumbbell up in another curl.] Not that we won’t be competing eventually, but I aim to teach people what I know first, of course.
[No one wants to go up against a bunch of losers that don’t know what they’re doing, after all.]
Like I said, it’s a great game, and one hell of a work out at that.
no subject
Then I'm assuming you're a volleyball coach? It seems like you know what you're doing but...
[Even with all of her fighting in the Metaverse, it was another thing to play a sport! As she trailed off, it wouldn't hurt to try it. Now that she wasn't busy with school, saving the world, or have any other responsibilities? It couldn't hurt to try to live as a normal teenager for once, right?]
I may have some good upper body strength so I wish to be a good asset to the your team!
no subject
I’m just a high school student, but I’m the ace for my team back home - that’s an offensive position.
We’re a powerhouse school in our prefecture, and I’ve been playing for as long as I can remember.
[Another laugh, another curl.]
I guess I’d be somewhat like a coach to start out, but I aim to play once we all know what we’re doing. It’ll be fun. Promise.
no subject
[Even if she wasn't an average high school student, just hearing others about their accomplishments was enough to impress her. However, she wasn't sure if that was her own sheltered background making her naïve.]
Although, you are right, it is worth a try. I think I will join. I will trust you'll teach me to become a good volleyball player?
[Or at least, just enough where she knows the basics!]
no subject
[He glances at her, smile in place again, though a bit weaker now.] I’ll teach you what I know. It’s a fair bit.
And thanks, you know. I’ve been itching to play again. Can’t really do that without other players, right?
no subject
No, you can't! But it must be a game played with friends and fellow comrades!
[And you see that? That is the look of someone who might be taking this a little too serious now. With that being said, something dawned on her]
Speaking of friends, I haven't introduced myself! My name is Haru Okumura, it's really nice to meet you! [That being said, there was some hesitation on her end. Hopefully this person didn't come from her world. The last thing she wanted was for someone to know she was a daughter of a wealthy company.
She just wanted to be a normal teenager here]
no subject
[Iwaizumi extends a hand, nods in greeting at her introduction. Lucky for her, he doesn’t come from her world and she gets to be a normal teenager for a little longer.]
Hajime Iwaizumi, but just call me Iwaizumi. It’s nice to meet you too, Haru. Okumura if you prefer.
no subject
Okay then, Iwaizumi-san! You're more than welcomed to call me Haru!
[She said before shaking his hand] I hope to get along with you as you teach me more about volleyball!
[And hopefully they can become friends too? She hoped so, she really needs to learn how to make more friends]
no subject
Hell yeah. Any time you want. Honestly, I spend most of my time right around here, but I’m in 209 back at the apartments if you ever need to track me down.
Do you stay around there?
no subject
[She said with a giggle]
I know I have to practice more with my axe if I wish to keep improving my strength.
no subject
[Somewhat nervously:]
You, uh...practice axe throwing or...something?
[Axe???]
no subject
[All said with a smile on her face]
It is quite relaxing, you should try it sometime! [That and she could do into more detail about her using said axe to fight in the Metaverse but she'll keep that to herself]
no subject
no subject
[Haru, what are you doing?]
no subject
Not too much to be busy with around here, except that volleyball league I was talking about.
I’ll take you up on that, sure.
no subject
[With that, she gestured him toward the door. Hopefully, he will be able to see why she loves using her axe to fight!]
We can end here!
