Characters: Minako and OPEN
Content: Minako is frustrated and accidentally leaves something out in the open.Hilarity Surprise ensues - and perhaps some color.
Location: The cafeteria deck.
Time of Day: Late night.
Warnings: Possible angst.
She couldn't do it.
Every time she tried, her hand would suddenly jerk. When she tried to erase, her work would smudge. Every time.
Another attempted picture of her friends back home ruined. And every time she looked up at the clock...aah, it felt maddening. Things that took forever for her to do suddenly took forever. Like in Pluto's time stop. Everything was stopped.
Why was this affecting her so much? She wanted to fight. She wanted to continue fighting, to stop the Mads. It shouldn't have been so hard. She'd been doing it for over a year. And then, suddenly, when things became black and white, it got...harder. She began to feel like giving up. She'd never see her friends again, so what was the point? No. No, she would. She'd remember their faces. She'd fight for the chance for everyone to see their loved ones--
--and yet simple stick drawings of her friends in her diary turned to crud. Even simply writing, she had no control. Five pages of "Everything is swell!" "Everything is shiny!" "I have never been happier!" No matter how hard she tried.
Finally, she'd had it. In frustration and anger, she swatted her diary and her drink away, causing both to fly off her table. The drink shattered; the diary fell on the floor, half open, with bits and pieces of paper falling out of them underneath.
Like a kid with a temper tantrum. A powerless kid. Not like the leader she was supposed to be. The person who saved her friends and loved ones, who was a soldier of love.
Minako stood up, her face in her hands. She needed to stop. She needed some air. She needed to breathe and relax. Take a walk. And when she came back, the diary would go back to her room with her and the glass would be cleaned up as if she were never there. She'd be back to her chipper self in the morning and no one would suspect a thing.
And so she left, certain no one else was up at such a late hour.
The diary - her secret diary, a thing she kept hidden even from Cambot - remained.

Suddenly, Minako's bow was the palest shade of mauve.
"Especially since...we'll be apart again anyways. We're destined to one day leave this ship. We might never see each other again after we're freed. And then you'll live the rest of your life...wanting something you can never have."
A little more than mauve.
"At least if I could have made you hate me...you'd find it easier to forget me."

"...Minako."
He leaned forward slightly to ensure that they made eye contact.
"I dunno what's gonna happen after we all go home. Of course we'll all have to get out of here, I mean, chya! But even if I never see you again...I'd rather that then never knowing you. I'll take my chances; I've already died twice, remember? I've never felt this way about anyone before. Not even Catwoman! I don't care what happens. Even if you don't like me...I'm glad that I've had the chance to meet you, to kinda even know you."
His voice got slightly lower as the slightest hue of blue returned to his own eyes.
"I love you."

There was a long, long silence at this. Minako stared at 90s Kid, a mixture of horror and shock on her face. He loved her?! Even after--
She reacted, after several moments, at last.
She started to cry.

He hesitantly stepped forward, resting a hand slowly on her shoulder, his other hand brushing a tear away from her cheek.
"Minako..."
