Characters: Oichi and you!
Format: Action/prose.
This log is: open!
Location: Shower blocks
Summary: Being from an era with no running water, Oichi is mystified by it.
Warnings: Derp.

Oichi finds herself wandering the school grounds, unsure of what to do with herself. There are new people here, but Oichi recognizes none of them.

Eventually, after some time, she finds herself in the washroom blocks. It's a strange place, she thinks to herself, spinning around, a strange place full of porcelain and metal. She steps towards the counters and plays with the sinks for a moment, figuring out what they do. Fiddling with the taps she discovers water comes out when she twists them.

She goes down the line and turns them all on, and then goes to the shower block. More strange metal. She fiddles again, with the taps that resembled the other ones, and gasps when the water comes down.

"Ichi… made it rain," she says, holding her hands up, quickly getting soaked. "Rain inside, rain inside, made by Ichi… how strange, how strange…"

"Ichi goes wherever she wants, right?" Kotarou had sidled up at they'd made the vow, and was in the process of craning his neck to see if the mark had appeared on either of Oichi's hands yet. "She went everywhere else too."

They should know, they followed her all over campus.

Huashi's hands are warm, a sharp contrast to Oichi's ice-cold ones.

"Ichi goes where Ichi goes," she says, and she nods, both to acknowledge Huashi and to agree with Kotarou. She doesn't find anything particularily strange about them knowing where she went before this, either. It's starting to get steamy in here from all the hot water. "This room is hot, too hot... let's go."

"Okay! We can go have a proper bath! There's a really nice pond in the forest!" Huashi claps her hands, and hopes they'll agree, because she still feels kinda grimy from that... 'dream'. She hasn't had a chance to bathe yet. She was busy before.

Huashi bounds up to the entrance, completely ignoring the faucets and showers. She didn't see anything strange with leaving them on, it wasn't as if waterfalls turned on and off, either!

Kotarou would try and turn them off... if they weren't all too high up, and if they weren't guarded by torrents of hot water. So instead he glances back at them warily, and follows the other two out of the block.

"The pond near our camp?"

[themouthofhell]

Oichi is also with them on not thinking to turn it off; she just wants to get out of the steamy room, and she does.

"A bath... yes, Ichi would like that," she says. "A pond, how lovely..."

[monkeystail]

Huashi nods at Kotarou, offering her hand. She'll go slower this time, but they had to be fast to keep up with Ichi last time! For appearing to have walked rather slowly, Oichi always disappeared so fast...

"That's the one! It's nice and big and ought to be warm enough by this time!" Huashi may not exactly trust Ichi fully, but she trusts her enough to at least not with meaning hurt at least Kotarou, therefore, she's safe to take to the pond near the camp.

A hand! Technically, it's kind of babyish to do that... but... He disdains it for all of a second before slipping his hand into hers and jogging a little to catch up. He then turns back to offer his other hand to Oichi.

SORRY FOR THE DELAY

[themouthofhell]

She takes his hand without thinking, squeezing once before stepping along with them. She's quiet, watching them and swaying on her feet. Oichi hums before finally saying, "Then let us head there..."
