(open) help out a newbie
🧙 WHO: Minako Aino and you!
⚔️️ WHAT: Minako is new to town, so it's time to explore.
🕒 WHEN: Mid-July
🗺️ WHERE: Camelot
⚠️ WARNINGS: Should be none, will edit if that changes!
(a. at the senshi (and friends!) house)
[ Minako's arrival hadn't exactly been.. pleasant. Somewhere between everything being so chaotic back home right before she showed up here instead, then suddenly being dropped into the water out of nowhere, and then getting covered in gross jelly stuff didn't exactly make it the most fun course of events.
But at least Makoto helped her over to the house, and now Minako has been able to bathe and get all that junk out of her hair, things are starting to look up a little more. Or at least, Minako thinks she looks presentable enough to be seen by others.
Which means she starts wandering the house, peeking her head into all the rooms so she can greet people with a: ]
Hi! [ You know, casual. Just showed up here. No biggie. ]
(b. on the streets of camelot)
[ If you just happen to be calmly walking along the city streets, your moment of relative peace and quiet gets interrupted really, really quickly.
Because you might suddenly feel something jumping on you. It happens so fast that you can't even see what it is, other than that there's a sudden pressure on your head, like something is clinging on for dear life up there. If you try to remove it - which is possible if you put some effort into it - you'll find it's a cat. A kind of.. odd-looking cat, since it's a little too big for your usual cat, but it's still definitely a cat.
Or even if you don't manage to remove it, there's suddenly a blonde girl outright charging at you, yelling out-- ]
Wait!
[ What do you do. Do you run. Do you stay. Do you ponder why your life suddenly turned out like this? ]
(c. outside a bakery)
[ After having managed to recover her familiar, Minako is making sure to tightly hold it to her chest, not wantin to start an entire chase scene all over again.
Which means things are a little bit calmer right now. Instead you might find the blonde girl standing outside a bakery, staring at the delicious goods inside, looking like she's about to drool right over them. ]
Ahh, it looks so good, right? [ She squeezes the cat-like creature a little. ] Maybe you were just hungry too.. Rough is the fate of those who don't have money.. [ Please, Minako. You literally have a house full of friends you're staying with. Cut down on the melodramatics.
Still, her stomach growls. Loudly. That chase must have taken some energy. Do you help out this poor blonde girl. ]
(d. on the streets of camelot, less chaos edition)
[ Or maybe you, very simply, just find the girl walking up to you on the middle of the streets. Do you know her? Probably not! And yet she talks to you so casually, as if you're not total strangers. Welcome to the power of an extreme extrovert. ]
Hey! Sooo.. if someone wanted to practice these new powers everyone's talking about, where do they do that? Won't you help a cute girl out?
[ Look at her batting those doe eyes at you! You're locked into this fate now. It's inescapable. ]
(ooc: as a note for those who have threaded with me on the tdm, i am more than willing to carry those over as in-game canon, so feel free to assume those interactions happened! c: )

[Well this cat certainly wasn't impressing either of them. Haruka did wonder what good having such a lazy cat would be, but maybe it had some kind of hidden wisdom or super-secret power that it hadn't disclosed yet.]
Ok, so what's your name?
no subject
[ That's the cue for Minako to pick up the cat - and yes, when she's holding it by its sides, it's definitely just letting its legs hang there idly. Like a short version of longcat. ]
What part of you is anything like Cupid, huh?!
[ She's not having it. She may be shaking the cat back and forth over here. ]
no subject
[Maybe this place had a sense of humor, what better partner for the goddess of love than cupid? Haruka went back over to her bed and took a seat again looking across at Minako and the cat. Well it was certainly her familiar, now the question was how helpful it would be.]
no subject
[ Shake, shake, shake.
That cat sure is getting all shaken up over here, and yet he still doesn't care. When Minako puts him back on the ground, he just curls right back up again. Naptime once more. ]
.. This whole place is a joke. Between the gross lake we fell into and this thing, it's a huge prank aimed at me. [ Minako pouts. She just knows it. When do the camera's appear?
Sure, usually she'd approach this in a slightly more mature way, but right now she's still busy throwing her huffy tantrum because everything feels so unfair. ]
no subject
Haruka put a hand on Minako's shoulder, it was a pretty rough start to things. But there was no reason to get down.]
At least we're not alone. And we have a reason for being here, the mission hasn't really changed, even it might be a little strange. You still have the rest of us to support you even if cupid there insists on continuing to take cat naps.
no subject
She knows it's true, after all. There's quite a few of her friends here, so it should be alright, but.. it just feels like she's starting with a disadvantage, while she's supposed to be the one responsible for making sure everything goes smoothly with Usagi and Ami and Makoto..
Minako releases a final sigh, and then realises nothing can be changed about this anyway. She just has to be strong, right? ]
Don't worry about me, Haruka-san. [ She says, forcing a smile on her face. ] I'll deal!
no subject
[Maybe they could get a small laser and make him chase it.]
