Sakura's room is pretty sparse, but after Thursday, she's decorated it with the rolls of ribbons she was given. A bow here, a bow there, bows on her curtains, bows on her bedposts. It's very cutesy. ]
[ Sakura, being herself, does not immediately think Ann means "gotten off the rollercoaster," but squashes down her awful gutter mind pretty successfully.
Don't think like that around Ann, shhh, she's a pretty girl. ]
I know. I don't have any idea what I'm supposed to do anymore. I feel really useless...especially during the trial, you know? None of my ideas were correct, and everyone got mad, and then--
[it's a nice thought, and she kind of likes seeing that blush on Sakura's face, but she doesn't want to push her, if she's nervous. If there's some sort of hesitation.
But she's waited before, and it bit her in the worst way. she didn't want to do that again..]
It--it's not that strange! I just--really like him and talking to him makes me happy, and we have a lot of things in common, and I think he's been flirting with me every now and then...
[ The second it comes out of her mouth there is INSTA-REGRET
Maybe she shouldn't have told this to someone who has it as "competition" ]

[ stepping aside.

How are you feeling, tonight...?
no subject
Mm... I'll live.
[she steps inside, and pauses, her face dropping for a moment.]
Oh... no. I'm.. a little miserable, actually. But I think everyone is at this point.
no subject
[ Sakura lets the smile drop from her face, shoulders sagging. She takes a seat on her bed, but gestures for Ann to sit wherever she wants. ]
I feel like I really understand the phrase "emotional rollercoaster" now.
no subject
I don't think I've gotten off in weeks now. It's such bullshit-- I can't stand it.
And we're all trying to not be suspicious, and to move forward. But...

[ And then Gebura ]

[she leans against Sakura slightly.]
Besides... you tried again. Lots. We just... missed it.
no subject
Everything feels like it went wrong, today.
no subject
[and she leans in to nuzzle her a little bit.
hopefully
the message is clear]
no subject
A...Ann-san...?
[ Hm! Interesting! So her gay-ass crush is apparently not one-sided!
Before Sakura can decide what to do with that information-- ]
I--that's--
[ This does not jive with her plans tomorrow no sir it does not. Fuck. What does she do. ]
no subject

Guess I'm being kinda forward.
[she brushes a strand of hair out of her face]
Sorry.
no subject
[ hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ]
no subject
[she blinks]
What's wrong...?
no subject
There's...someone else that I really like. And I was--was going to say something to him...but today was--well.
[ today was today ]
...I do--really...like you, Ann-san, so I don't know how to...um...
[ how do 2 crushes at once. this is stupid. teenage emotions are stupid. ]
no subject
She leans back at that, creating a little space between her and Sakura.]
Hey... this is probably one of the better problems to have right now... don't you think?
no subject
Ann is...okay with this? ]
It is? I-I mean, it's really trivial compared to things like the mystery and the trials, but...
no subject
in most normal circumstances]
Yeah, you like two different people. Even if I'm not the one you choose, that's a normal problem to have. It's... gotta be a little refreshing.
no subject
Sakura shuffles a bit, feeling awkward. ]
I've never had this problem before. [ She's loved the same guy for like, 5 years. ]
no subject
[she places a hand lightly over Sakura's.]
I don't want any weirdness, y'know?
no subject
...yes, I understand. The thing is, though, I'm...not sure if this is something that's, um...on his radar, so to speak?
[ Seeing as she hasn't clarified who "he" is yet, let's hear Ann's guess ]
no subject
[she has to consider the 'he' question for a minute, actually.
there... aren't actually many boys left.]
... Who is he? I mean... most of the guys are...
[she pauses.]
Um... Furniture?

2/2
[ Oh lord in Heaven you can just see the dokidoki on her face. ]
no subject
Really?!
[so that's who her competition is
her shocked look is only marred by the slightest of blushes]
no subject
Sakura immediately clams up, shoulders hunched. ]
It--it's not that strange! I just--really like him and talking to him makes me happy, and we have a lot of things in common, and I think he's been flirting with me every now and then...

[she smiles a bit, and admits slowly, once it processes.]
... I'm really happy for him.
