Miwako is a bubbly, deeply sensitive, creative and stylish young woman. Sheβs a senior high school student at Yazawa School of the Arts in Tokyo, where she studies fashion design. Though her older sister, whom she admires more than anyone in the world, is a bold and successful fashion designer whoβs been a standout visionary all her life, Miwako is far more passive and feels she lacks the originality to start her own clothing brand like her sister did. She instead eagerly sews clothes designed by her friend and classmate George, who is a natural genius like Miwakoβs sister. Together with Georgeβs ladylike pattern-maker best friend Isabella, Miwakoβs punk long-time boyfriend Arashi, and their passionate aspiring model
In Avalon, her own dreams are coming true slowly but surely, given a pedestal and window of opportunity she was never able to reach for at home. Without Mikako's designs as a mirror on the market beside hers, Miwako's designs can shine on their own. Her problem is not that she's bad at designing; it's that her designs look like copycats of her sister's style by unconscious nature, which would shoot Miwako in the foot as a designer competing with her idol. Here? There is no Happy Berry to compete with. Mikako's designs are good and Happy Berry is a success back home. If Miwako's designs are natural mirrors to Mikako's... then here, she can succeed, living outside her sister's shadow for the first time in her life. She can be her own person, make her own art, and start her own brand β and will never hear the name "Kouda Mikako" brought up unless she brings it up herself. Which she will β often, and enthusiastically β but with a new brand of vigor. Happy Berry is no longer a dream to admire, but an example to follow.

Mnn I've got my ears pierced and nothing else. [He knew people were getting piercings that were much more risky on Amoi because well... they could be appreciated? Gokudera just knew that his older self had pierced ears, so he headed off that decision as soon as the opportunity presented itself.]
That's so young!
no subject
[ Miwako's the devil's advocate here... ]
Oh, yay, your ears are pierced now~? We can play with that, hehe~
[ Her new doll may have new scars, but he can wear even more jewelry now, so she's all about that. ]
Heheh, if you could see Risa and Takeshi, you'd understand~ They're good parents, don't worry. Ara's very well-adjusted. He just looks wild! Always has~ At least he doesn't wear a lil fluffy tail on his belt anymore, ehehe~!
[ He absolutely did when they were young. He went through a big phase idolizing Doraemon the cat... ]
no subject
[Gokudera reaches a hand to his ear, and the piercing doesn't hurt, but then, he's never bothered to mess with the jewelry Iskandar gave him.]
Oh, okay. As long as it isn't too big... [Watch him cave though. If Miwako wants him to wear massive dangling earrings, she need only present them to him with an outfit, and he'll become a doormat.]
no subject
Do you have only one hole in each lobe? Both ears? Miwako loves earrings with thin chains that connect to each other... Looks so elegant but tough! Like, sometimes I'll wear one on my cartilage that's connected to my lobe. Arashi likes to wear a chain that connects his earrings to his lipring, too! But we needn't go that far, nee~ That's him, not you.
no subject
Hm? yeah. Just the ear lobes.
[He turns his head and tucks his silver hair behind one ear to show off the gold and ruby stud placed in his lobe.]
I had Iskandar pick these out for me...
[Gokudera starts thinking about that lover of his, and he's even more lonely. His thumb rubs over the gem and he sighs.]
no subject
[ She says it a little funny. Miwako tilts her head curiously, admiring the earring at first, but something in the distant look about him when he brings up the odd name (but fun-sounding, to her ears!) sets her immediately wondering if that were a lover he'd had in this bizarre interim period he'd experienced abroad... Double, triple, quadruple-abroad, from being spirited away from being spirited away already! She can't fully fathom and there's a part of her brain that's shut itself off (there aren't too many spare parts to shut off, oh no!) since being here when it comes to trying to make sense of the fantastical like that. Just accept it at face value and don't deconstruct it too much... ]
no subject
[Said with the dreamiest expression. Gokudera is remembering fondly, and is glad that Takeshi can't see this. He'd feel bad. But for now, while he's in a relationship that is off-limits, it can't be too remiss for him to look back on past lovers.]
He was a very supportive friend of mine. [His face flushes gently and he lets his hair go so it swings back over to hide his decorated little ear.]
no subject
[ She can read that expression. She's worn it enough times thinking about Hiroyuki. She's eager for the tea, and not her strawberry-rose bubble tea, either...! ]
no subject
Feels like we kind of skipped that. He was a spirit, and could go through walls and doors and be summoned if I called his name loud enough. There was a time once he came to see me when I finally got to live with an Elite, but uh... that wasn't allowed and I was punished. You could say it was a forbidden romance or that my uh, roommate was possessive of me and when he caught us together, he suddenly would not let me go and... it was a very bad relationship.
[Gokudera hasn't explained to her about him being a pet and isn't sure if he should. Or what the best way to explain around that would be.]
no subject
[ Oh, her head is spinning from the drama blast. She doesn't fully understand, but she's certain she wants to hear more enough at least to try, she's practically got stars in her eyes! What a transformation! ]
I-I'm sorry it ended that way, that sounds hardβ I can kind of understand that part of it, maybe... But it's all so far out, you have to excuse me! You grew up a lot in three years, huh! A demi-god! And a volleyball player!
[ Why's the volleyball player stand out against a spirit king and a demi-god... ]
no subject
I only dated the demi-god. He wanted more out of me than I could give him, I think. We would fight all the time...
[Disagree, more like it. They saw eye-to-eye on a lot, but Percy had a lot of hang-ups regarding his virginity, and held it with such value that it made Gokudera feel disgusting by comparison.]
Hard not to grow up when it's forced on you like that...
no subject
[ She's drastically misunderstanding the context of the worlds he lived in, without these details, and so inadvertently... reveals a big truth bomb of her own. So casually. But her face shows some soft mixture of empathy and concern and shock. ]
no subject
The world I was in... It was very focused on sex. So something like that lost it's meaning very quickly and the more I did it, the less I grew to love anyone. But there are some people, like Iskandar I hold very dear, and of course... after that world, I met my fiance... the version of him I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.
[Gokudera smiles, explaining and yet coming right back to how lucky he is, even if the circumstances are sad.]
no subject
[ And a thought occurs to her, drawing a concerned expression on her face. ]
What about here? Are you gonna stay true to your Takeshi? Even though he's not hereβ not that version of him...?
no subject
[He sighs and gives a small shrug. Oh well, it was not meant to be.]
I plan to. I'm still wearing his ring, after all, and this collar. I just don't know how I want to bring it up with him, or even if I should. It's worth the heartache to see him happy, but I know he would be upset that I'm keeping this from him... that he is inadvertently at fault.
But I love him. I will wait for him, since he would do the same for me.
[Even though his Takeshi had never been on a world like Amoi.]
no subject
[ She protests against Percy's perspective for obvious personal reasons. All of what Gokudera is so much more amplified, but somehow strikes many chords close to home for her, too. ]
Won't it be hard for you? If you went from having lots of sex, to no sex... You think you'll resist temptation here?
[ She's also asking this for obvious personal reasons. She's dying of thirst. π₯ ]
no subject
[Which sucked, because he really did like Percy very much and didn't look forward to being with anyone more than him. Percy made him laugh, and he was strong... capable and adventurous, and being with him felt special.]
Yeah, probably. But I'm loyal. It'll just suck a lot. I'll deal with it.
[Sudden abstinence really aches. He'd only recently been Takeshi's first. Right after he came back from dying.]
I've been through death. I think resisting temptations will be easier than that. He's worth it.
no subject
[ She sighs suddenly, deflating in her seat as she groans. ]
It's so haaard...! Your resolve is inspiring! I haven't had so much as a kiss in five months, heeeehhh...! Your Takeshi and my Arashi better be proud of us!
no subject
[He doesn't feel like his will is being tested. It's just... he's got urges and can take care of them himself. To the best of his ability... even as uncomfortable and difficult as it may sometimes be. At least until he moves out on his own.]
At least Arashi isn't around! I'm tempted every day I see him! I can't wait until I move out and then I won't have to look at him or think about kissing the stupid clueless smile off his face. fucking idiot
no subject
no subject
[Which seems almost hopeless, but... still.]
Whether I start anew depends on how and if this Yamamoto actually is even interested, or if I can muster up the courage to pursue him. [Oh the gay, unrequited struggle.]
no subject
[ She grasps her chest dramatically with one hand and reaches out to gently place her other hand on his across the table, pouting her empathy at him. ]
no subject
The version of him I knew in that sex world thought it was appealing that I was experienced, and did not hesitate to share me. This one... I don't know how he'd feel about me keeping so much to myself.
[Is Takeshi the jealous type? He needs to find out, but is almost scared of the answer.]
no subject
[ That final word is the closest thing Miwako's come to a dig about Arashi. But reading between the lines, it's true. And clearly bothers her that he doesn't trust her after cutting off this best friendship for his sake... after he took her by force their first time, apparently. All these little details she drops by the wayside add up to everyone with even slightly more sense than Miwako, who's blinded by love and complacency and fear. She admires people like Gokudera and Takeshi and George and so many others who are more open and sex-positive and adventurous, sees it as a foil to her own troubles with Arashi's immense jealousy, like it must be some testament to the fortitude of their understanding of each other's love or something... It may be conflated, but she has stars in her eyes over it, rather than judgment, unlike maybe others with an equally limited experience as Miwako has. She speaks so adoringly of her boyfriend but inadvertently lets forth truths like these that show another side that even she herself clearly doesn't see all too well. ]
no subject
Ah- my Takeshi I think wants me all to himself. But... if it's between him and another version of himself, it should be fine. Do you know what you're going to do for your... uh... urges?
[It's more awkward than embarrassing for him to ask this. They're both young adults who are not virgins. It's healthy to be active the way they are accustomed, and he's just looking out for her. Gokudera won't tell her
whowhat she can and can't do.Arashi sounds very guarded and insecure. It's not a good image he has in his mind. When he becomes super famous in his band, what will happen to Miwako when he has girls flocking about him? He must know that he can't always try to keep a firm hold on her. Gokudera is concerned.]
