<Nocturnal Harmonia>

[Bloodedge]

It seemed Kaguya's actual dessert was off the proverbial menu, but that didn't matter to Yugi. What did matter, was securing an extra that Miko undoubtedly prepared with every intention of consuming herself. No way was she going to make such excessive amounts for the main course and avoid doing the same for the satisfying finishing touches of any meal. Yugi's only concern was chocolate. If he discovered there was chocolate in the dessert, he'd easily give his own portion away before he even thought about seeking another. Miko decided to question the aversion to chocolate. No real answer would be coming from Yugi. "Isn't there a game coming up? Shouldn't you be saving questions like that?" he retaliated.

There was one other subject. In spite of how gluttonous she was, Miko did have something on her 'no' list... and it was something astounding. Yugi became curious. He had no idea what it could be, but perhaps finding out would be a fun little game to play? Or perhaps he could just use it as a dare, assuming it was something almost household in nature. "Mm," he mumbled contemplatively. Meanwhile, Miyuki was downing his last bite before leaning back where he sat. He rubbed his belly like a content child, glad he'd done away with pants that were equipped with a belt. "Phew! Gochisousamadeshita!~ That was so great, I'll count it as part of the celebration!" he said. No specifics were given about the time since Miko and Yugi had their aforementioned unagi, but as the girl collected one serving after another... he didn't really think it mattered. Well, he couldn't judge. In fact, Miyuki muttered something ─ almost to himself. "You really would get along with her─"

[Apollymi]

Miko questioned an aversion to chocolate and received a non-answer. She knew it was a non-answer as she was prone to giving those herself so frequently. Ah, but a reminder was given about the upcoming game and questions best saved for a later time. "Uh-huh..." That was an odd noise from Miko, mostly because she didn't agree. She was almost certain that Yugi had no intention of actually answering any questions and could almost bank on him not even leaving himself open to questions at all. Kaguya watched this play out and smirked. They were interesting in a new way... as their disagreement was obvious right behind those words spoke and the lack of pitch variation in Miko's speech.

What was more Miko heard that gentle sound of thought coming from Yugi, as he obviously thought about the one thing that Miko didn't like the idea of eating. For whatever reason, it would likely come up at some other time regardless, either because she was the type to answer questions in truth or dare, or because it'd be some kind of pointed breaker or something she reacted to. "Don't start thinking now," Miko muttered which only made Kaguya laugh a little. "Oya? You've both just been avoiding things you don't like~" Kaguya mused. Weird though it was, since there was a game coming up she wouldn't be the one giving anything away either. "Hai hai♪~" Miko chirped. But that soft muttering of Miyuki was heard by Miko in surround sound. She usually ignored people talking to themselves like that in order to respect their privacy, but who was 'she' was it his sister? That did get mentioned earlier... it was something to consider and ask Kaguya about a bit later. Still, she went about demolishing a plate. Her general plan was always to get through the entirety of the entree, and by the time she did that, everyone else was usually ready for dessert.

Kaguya for her part in this was on the last vestiges of her meal and would be finishing up around the time that Miko managed to clear the last serving. Kaguya would begin collecting dirty dishes while Miko now with a belly full of meat, veggies and rice, had her heart settle upon dessert. "You guys can pour the drinks for the game, I'll get dessert♪~" Miko chirped. Purin, was a simple enough dish, cream, milk egg a caramel sauce. It ended up gelatious and a bit decadent. It'd been flavored lightly with vanilla and a little hint of cinnamon per the request of Kaguya. And Miko would be coming back with a tray full of them. About a dozen or so molds existed with Purin in them. And one would be placed upon a small saucer upside down to slide from the mold and show that jelly shape with slightly bronzed tops and caramel sauce dripping down the sides. One was set in front of Miyuki. One for Kaguya, two for Yugi, and Miko took, two for herself initially as well.

[Bloodedge]

Between the Players, there was a gentle war brewing. Both had questions, neither had answers to give. The simplest curiosities remained as two parties chose silence, both knowing the other would be withholding information until a shift occurred. Don't start thinking now, Miko ordered. To that, Yugi offered a protruding tongue in a mocking gesture. "As if I ever stopped," was his verbal retort.

Whatever the case, everyone was done eating soon enough. Strange as it was that one person at the table cleared enough servings for five, two would never have questioned it, and the only one who did managed to move past the matter by reaching a mental comparison. The next big part of the group's night was coming up either way. Desserts would be prepared, but drinks could be readied as well. Miyuki rose from the table sluggishly. "Nothing like a strong drink to wash it all down! I got so engrossed in the food, I forgot to even have one with dinner! Kiriya-kun~" he spoke, causing Yugi to raise a brow as the blonde carried one bottle back to the living room. That natural glare of his would be reaching Miyuki's back, then settling in the middle distance. "... Is that him expecting me to help?" he asked of no one in particular, his words not even reaching Miyuki's ear. "The life of a guest is weird now. All work, no head. Unless...?" Yugi's final words as he rose from the table were spoken loudly enough for Kaguya to hear, though of course he knew Miko would hear them as well. Those were the two pairs of ears he intended to reach while taking the other bottle back to the living room... all while wondering what the point of moving them the first time was. No matter. He'd wait to see what kind of dessert was brought out, and eventually be satisfied by the pair of spongy things placed in front of him. Seeing the two next to each other, he shifted his plate enough to make the purin jiggle. There was a joke to be made from that visual. "You gave me a bouncing boob plate. I like it. Always ready to see a good boob bounce," he said in yet another discrete message to both girls.

[Apollymi]

'As if he ever stopped', Yugi didn't stop thinking, Miko knew this, Kaguya knew this and Yugi himself also knew it. That didn't mean that the mocking gesture would be left alone at all. No. Miko had a problem once in a while, of things falling out of her mouth before her brain had a chance to filter them. Now would be one such instance. "Keep sticking your tongue out at me and I'll give you somewhere to put it♪~" Well, they were in a room of people at least one of which wasn't actually familiar with the oddities of Miko herself. "Oops, that slipped out, don't mind me♪~" she chirped. As Kaguya laughed, "Ehehe♥!~ Inside voice on the outside again, Mi-chan♥~" she asked the girl playfully which in turn only made her face redden a bit. "Urusai!♪~" she tweeted before she turned her attention to the next bit.

Soon enough though, movements were being made toward the living room to gather around that once spunk covered coffee table to enjoy dessert and a drinking game. Purin was plated but before then, there was something else. Miyuki aimed to draw Yugi with him toward the living room first, using his assumed identity and among other things, and among other things Yugi would comment on that and the now increased job of guests. And how said guesthood didn't come with head. "Well I'm always willing but we have a game to play right?" Miko mused almost playfully. Kaguya took the flirty route instead, "Oya? Is this how we end up with you two... an eater and her favorite food?" she also committed to non-answers ever so often but that didn't mean she wouldn't. By the time they were all seated Miko dropped plates of purin in front of everyone and Yugi had commentary about his. "Everyone likes boob bouncing, but Box it!♪~" Miko asserted while looking at her own plate with a minor chuckle. Purin would now be boob pudding in her head and would likely now only be served in pairs and the universe could thank Yugi for that realization in the girl's mind. Regardless Miko was apt to taste her new dessert even thought she'd had tastes throughout the process if only because the texture and cooling should have made it settle quite nicely.

[Bloodedge]

A slip of the tongue was inevitable. Yugi had them a few times since returning as well. A full day of being without a filter was more than enough to lose that filter entirely, if the right conditions were met. Miko's response got nothing but a cheeky smirk from Yugi. Miyuki, however, stumbled en route to the living room. He wouldn't comment on that, but it was clearly ridiculous to hear from his perspective. Those two were very free with their mouths. 'Being unawakened has to be really... freeing,' he thought while setting out four pillows around the table, taking one for himself at one extreme and thus leaving Yugi to his right. He'd be receiving his own plate with a soft bow, hesitating only because another odd exchange was taking place about... bouncing boob plates.

Once again, Miyuki refrained from commenting. Those two were younger, obviously with less responsibility and dedication to propriety. That was fine, he thought. Not everyone had to restrict themselves, right? Well, Yugi would do anything but give himself restraints. Box it, Miko said. Nonsense, he thought. "Hell no! You can't box the bouncy ones! They have to be let loose so they can do their thang!" he argued. Miyuki cleared his throat, just managing to avoid a light chuckle. "Maybe Kiriya-kun shouldn't go first then. He's already had two shots," he said whilst pouring four shot glasses to spread around. "Anyone else? Iino-chan? You're the golden girl of the day. I think you should get first turn. Oh, but everyone... no picking 'truth' three times in a row~"

[Apollymi]

Miko slipped. Such a thing wasn't usual for her, she tried to keep most of her more unhinged thoughts within the depths of her mind. But... being alone with Yugi for an extended period of time, with him encouraging her to say what she thought and to not hold herself back led to an extra layer of social mishap. Oh well, no comments were made by any but Kaguya who found it funny and though Miyuki seemed to lose his balance, he also said nothing, so the girl was allowed to stew with her embarrassment in peace for the most part.

Ah but now everyone was being given plates of purin which were for eating and Miko herself was appreciating the bouncing boobs. Well, she wasn't the only one, Kaguya snickered outright and she giggled at Yugi's outrageousness. But... it would be Miyuki who held back a chuckle, covering with a throat clear. So... softly would Miko utter just a couple of words. "I heard that," she murmured softly. "I wasn't boxing the bounce, I was boxing something else, you'll find out later♪~" Miko chirped knowing that Yugi would likely remember things like this. Apparently, Yugi wasn't allowed to go first as the person who'd already had a few... so it would fall to Miko who was apparently the golden child of the hour. At the center of attention was somewhere Miko didn't like being. Her face became furiously red as she averted her gaze from the table side. "Waaah♪~ Why does it always sound like rules are made to thwart me♪!~" Miko let out a sound which was one of her many vocalizations which happened frequently. Kaguya could only smile sitting to the left of Miyuki, already enjoying the first bites of her dessert. "Mi-chan♥~ Gambareyo♥!~" she cheered the girl on. While Miko herself was flopped at the other end. "Fine though..." she looked directly at Miyuki, "Truth or dare, Shirogane-san♪~"

[Bloodedge]

Miko heard something. At her left, Yugi was close enough to catch her mention, but even he didn't know what she heard. It definitely wasn't something he said or did, so he chose to move on... to considering what Miko was boxing, if not the 'bouncing boob' idea. "I'm not sure if that's more or less lame. Whatever. I'll find out eventually," he decided. As Miyuki said, he'd been through a couple of shots already. His problem-solving ability, arguably at the level of a superpower under normal circumstances, was affected ─ partially replaced by even more perverse thoughts than normal. Oh well; the night was young and a bit of fun wouldn't hurt.

Miyuki suggested that Miko have the first turn as the returning guest of honor. His mention of a rule quite common to this game was treated like an assault on her person, which he found funny. "Talking like that, you're exactly the kind of person that rule is made for. Glad I remembered to mention it~" he teased. Interestingly enough, Miko's turn targeted Miyuki first. Would he choose truth, or would he choose dare? Well, in the spirit of ice-breaking, he went for the friendliest option while slicing through his dessert. "Truth. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu, Iino-chan!~" he pleaded.

[Apollymi]

What Miko heard, she was sure was supposed to be laughter. Whatever kept Miyuki from unwinding properly was an odd thing for Miko to consider. She couldn't properly decide how she felt about him without knowing what he was truly like... so now she was going to be keeping an eye out for that sort of thing. She couldn't help but thinking it might have been easier to observe if he still couldn't see her but she supposed she'd have to get used to being on people's radar eventually. Still a smirk would be shot towards Yugi, "Hai hai♪~" Miko chirped about his being firm on finding out.

"Or or or... and hear me out. Being honest or drinking is better than being brave... I've learned my bravery comes with, consequences♪~" Miko mentioned her own eyes cutting to Yugi who was her biggest consequence for bravery yet. Kaguya snickered. No drinks had passed her lips and she was already beyond elated to have her friend back. Beyond this point though Miko had already agreed to the game and thus would be asking the first question. "All of time, space, history and media if you could have someone all to yourself for any reason, who would it be? And no you can't say Kaya..." she clarified her question immediately. Kaguya for her part in this had her brow rise, 'Sou ka, that's a new way for that kind of question to be presented, what information is she fishing for?' Kaguya couldn't help but wonder. Miko wasn't going to be one falling to the rules if no one else was going to be on this train with her. If she wanted to learn something about someone, it was easiest to figure out what they were really like by the choices they made, not the attainable ones, but the ones that were completely out of left field. Miko asked this question while taking her first bite of dessert and soon enough she was happy squealing. "Squee♪!~ I came out perfect♪~" she congratulated herself on the smoothness as she managed to make the custard without any lumps at all.

[Bloodedge]

Before the first round of questioning began, Miko mentioned the consequences of bravery while aiming a very pointed glance in Yugi's direction. Nonchalant as ever and still sliding his plate to and fro to make the purin jiggle, he met that gaze with one of his own. "You sure you did? Accusations are also brave, y'know?" he said. It really was a shame. Yugi wanted to eat dessert, but he also thought there was an amazing joke or meme to be found in what he had available. What was it? He couldn't finish the thought. Either alcohol had too much of an effect on his mind, or it hadn't taken effect enough yet. Time would tell, he supposed...

And so came the first question for Miyuki's order of 'truth.' Her question was so very strange, but he had an immediate answer... or he would have, if Kaguya wasn't immediately scratched from the possible answer list. "... Ah. That makes things difficult. Hmm." Miyuki seemed a little stumped. He had to lean back and give that one some consideration. He'd take several seconds to do so before anything came up. "Ah! Easier than I thought. I'd take Ashikaga Tokiomi!" he said confidently. No reasons were given, but that wasn't part of the question. "That makes it your turn, Kiriya-kun. Who's your target?" he asked. Yugi didn't even look up from his plate. He knew enough about Miyuki for the moment, so his first choice would be the bold move of targeting... "Shinomiya."

[Apollymi]

Miko's pointed look at Yugi as a 'consequence of bravery' granted her the sound of his voice. Particularly as he pointed out that accusations were a form of bravery. "I didn't accuse anyone of anything♪~" Miko had escape her lips with a fully sarcastic little whistle at the end. Of course, that didn't stop her from giving the lad quite the side eye. Just the same, Miko's truth related question was answered, though initially it took a moment, since she discounted what would have been the standard option. "Hai hai, that amendment was definitely done with you in mind, Shirogane-san♪~" Miko mentioned, one could never say that Miko wasn't a straight forward individual.

And what would the answer be at the end of it all. Ashikaga Tokiomi. Man chosen to avoid saying anything perverted. Ambition mentioned by technicality because there was currently no greater business mind to peruse than that of Ashikaga Tokiomi. A perfectly reasonable answer. "Sou ka, I'll accept that information..." Miko confirmed. She wouldn't be mentioning that Ashikaga Tokiomi made one of her lists of people who she now realized she'd definitely have sex with if an inkling of an opportunity ever presented itself. At the mention of Kiriya, it was apparently 'Haruto's' turn to choose and he chose, Kaguya. "Oya? It's me, Kiriya-kun~" what would she be choosing... well to start with a dare when she had a pretty good idea of how this lad's mind was put together was one thing. But... Kaguya also preferred to dodge, 'truth' questions while she was engaged in unscrupulous things. "Dare♥~" the difference between this pairs personality was on full display. One choosing to walk a line in propriety, the other tearing away that idea to... walk on the wild side. Miko wondered if Kaguya found Miyuki to be 'safe'.

[Bloodedge]

"Fair enough. Good catch, taking out the easy and obvious," Miyuki praised. If he'd never managed to think of a reason to be stuck with someone besides Kaguya, Miyuki would have been forced to drink in the very first round. Maybe this was a more dangerous game than he realized. Ah, but Miyuki could never realize how truly dangerous things were. The game would pass turns clockwise, making Yugi the second to take a turn. Naturally, he chose Kaguya. And she... chose dare.

Yugi sought victory in all games. An innocent game of Truth or Dare was no exception to the norm, even if victory was something he could only ensure when the game itself was long over. If Kaguya wanted to walk on the wild side, Yugi would be there to give the proper push. Given the things currently on his mind, he found it easy to do something calculated, technically innocent, but... very pointed. As he continued making the untouched purin jiggle on his plate, Yugi leaned into his free left hand ─ leaving his head turned in Miko's direction while his eyes shifted to Kaguya. It was a simple, innocuous movement, but one that kept his eyes from Miyuki's line of sight. "Charades dare. I dare you to mimic something you can see in this room. Not one of us. Anything you can see from where you are, copy, with only what's currently available to you," he challenged flatly.

[Apollymi]

"Hai♪~" Miko tweeted. Of course she did, praise did do good for her and she liked her acumen being appreciated. Even so, it was a bit too easy to listen to those in a happy relationship gush about their significant other. She wasn't asking questions to learn more about her bestie, no... she was trying to figure out what about this man made her try and settle. Miko would keep up her observations even as Yugi was looking towards her.

Well, Kaguya chose dare, and what she received was a challenge to perform charades. Mimicking something with the limitation of it being already on her person and not being directly one of the people present. It was innocent and it was also calculated. Miko looked around them and though Kaguya might have better vision she immediately thought of the easiest thing to do. 'Danger. So much danger... Shirogane-san were you never told about our games of truth of dare?' Miko couldn't help but wonder. Even so... she kept her ideations to herself, her face blank but her eyes big. At the same time Kaguya looked around the table. She couldn't copy a person, so Kaguya watched. Those red eyes of hers tracing across the room. No one was doing anything in particular worth copying. There was the jiggling jelly, but.. she only had one so she couldn't use that. Well, not with actual purin because she only had one. Of all the times for her not to be a glutton. This exact moment was precisely why, Kaguya hadn't agreed to play a game with this boy the last time they'd encountered each other. This wasn't a dare it was a trap, she could giggle like the purin, but as she looked around, "To drink or to jiggle... what an interesting question♥~" Kaguya mused well, jiggling was the best answer and so... she gave it a few seconds and then went on to move her chest, just her upper body at the same pace as that moving purin. 'Impulses have no controls♪~' Miko thought but she was definitely in time with the movements so she couldn't say no. But how... would Miyuki respnd.

[Bloodedge]

Aiba Yugi did not play truth or dare. Even though he was doing so now, he'd approach it just as he did all things. Every step taken would be toward his ultimate goal, the victory in a very different game no one else was participating in. He'd already looked around. Either Kaguya could pull something completely out of her ass, or she'd be reduced to two options: drinking or mimicking the purin he shifted about. She took a look around as well, reaching the same conclusion and voicing the conundrum. In doing so, she seemed as if she'd already made her decision.

Miyuki wasn't as attentive. He'd been looking around as well, but he never made the connection to purin until Kaguya spoke of jiggling. Surely she wasn't going to go to such extremes to avoid getting ahead in drinking, right? Wrong. Before he knew better, Kaguya's chest was bouncing without a care in the world. His eyes widened, but they were also locked in place. That was such an extreme act to take on! And yet, he couldn't turn his eyes away. Was it part of Kaguya's efforts to arouse him before their celebration as a couple. While he silently considered his best version of reality, Yugi was watching as well. Ah, but he was also in control. He moved that plate around in a circle to make the purin upon it sway. No conditions had been applied to the length of Kaguya's mimicry, so he wondered how long she'd keep it up. However long she did, Miyuki would remain quite distracted. "That's erm... You really don't want to be the first one drinking, eh hon?" the blonde asked as he scrambled hopefully for logical conclusions.

[Apollymi]

Kaguya had decided to follow through with the dare. Her lack of impulse control obvious by her actions, not that anyone would be judging. Well, at the very least Miko wasn't judging and she was certain given his hand in orchestrating this, Yugi wasn't either. No... he was simply continuing to move the plate around into a sway, which Kaguya was also following. Just the same the first naysayer was Miyuki. Miko was content to watch and be hypnotized, still she heard the blonde man's words. What would Kaguya have to say to it?

"I definitely can't be the first one drinking. We know how that turns out. And besides, Mi-chan has never participated in active drinking so, I want to see that♥~" Kaguya mused. "Don't make it sound like it will be exciting..." Miko muttered a pout coming to her face. The former chairwoman of the disciplinary committee was a rule abiding citizen. She wasn't the type to stop her friends from having fun and freely offered to look after them, but often didn't participate in their 'older' activities. She kept this attitude for both of her sets of friends technically for various reasons. "So then, with this dare completed are we moving on?♥ If so, it's Miyuki's turn to make a move♥~" Kaguya wondered. Still her body followed along with the movements of the purin, she wouldn't be called on a technicality of any sort, she wasn't the type to set herself up for bad faith calls or anything like that.

[Bloodedge]

Kaguya did have a point, and it was precisely what Miyuki expected first. It was a very extreme dare to take while sitting across the table from another man ─ one she appeared to be in a scandalous situation with when he first returned home. Still, he supposed nothing truly outlandish was happening... and she was far more extreme when already drunk, so there was little Miyuki could really say about it. "That's... fair," he said. If anything, the only reason Miyuki had to be disappointed was that it wasn't some rouse to make him quit the game, that they might retire to their bedroom early. That would have been rather steamy, he thought. Sadly, he never realized the reason Kaguya's breasts were starting to sway beyond the initial jiggle. He didn't have eyes for Yugi's plate.

Well... neither did Yugi himself. Unseen by Miyuki, his eyes were also trained on Kaguya's bosom. She really wasn't stopping, even while asking if they were moving on. "Huh?" Yugi asked as if he hadn't been paying attention. At the same time, he stopped that plate's circular pattern, choosing instead to slide it quickly up, then down, and so on in an attempt to intensify Kaguya's bounce. What he thought would be decently steamy was having Kaguya's chest fly out of that window in her top... but alas, he couldn't be the one to make that happen ─ certainly not at this stage. All he could do was take advantage of the moment for a little longer than necessary. "Oh, right. Sumanai. I guess that'll do for now~" he said. Miyuki snapped to reality only after hearing his name. It seemed the turn was passing to him. As such, he cleared his throat and righted his posture. "Ahem. Well it looks like we're in a couple's war, so... truth or dare... Iino-chan?"
