Just a quick something I wrote up. Yes yes I know, for those of you who are waiting for me to update my other stories, I apologize. I'll probably have those on hiatus for a little while longer. Be assured I've started working on them bit by bit.
Anywho, this is just a little drabble of a oneshot. If I get enough requests, I'll probably continue it. Heck, I may continue it anyway. I love Lucky Star and the characters in it. I've been trying to get a fic for it written for some time now, and I finally came up with this.
EDIT: Switched back hair colors to those in the show.
"Finally!" A teenager sighed, throwing her arms into the air, clattering the humming computer's mouse to the desk. Her sweater covered arms swept out to her side as she stretched her stiff body, tired from nearly six hours straight of non-stop gaming. "They were right, those levels were such a grind fest..." She mumbled to herself adjusting her warm clothing. A small message appeared in the chat box.
Kuroi: "Hey Konata! Grats on that new level."
Kuroi: "Sure was a pain huh?"
Konata Izumi smiled a bit as her English teacher... Well, former English teacher now that she was finally done with high school, recognized her brilliant new accomplishment.
Izumi: "Sure was! Not even a single rare drop during it."
Kuroi: "Ouch"
Izumi: "Well, I feel like I've succceded, now I'm gonna take a break."
Kuroi: "I'll be here when you get back."
Smirking, Konata shook her head. She herself was a pretty hardcore gamer, but her ex-teacher was verging on pathetic. Christmas, New Years, Thanksgiving, she was always on. 'It's for the event items!' Kuroi always explained it as. The deep blue haired girl knew differently though. The poor woman was depressingly single.
As if on cue, the shadow filled room's door slid open. Light from the hallway poured in making the small girl wince as her emerald eyes did their best to adjust. "Ya-hoo! Hi Konata!" Cheered the tall, slim woman, her light teal hair cut short.
"Oh, cousin Yui. Didn't hear you get here." Konata greeted spinning in her chair. Her legs were covered in a pair of thin, green pajama pants, a bit too long for her actual limbs.
Yui crossed her arms shaking her head. "It's almost two in the afternoon and you're still on your computer?"
Glancing over her dark red sweater covered shoulder to her beloved companion, her beautifully, hand built computer. Konata clicked her teeth. "B-But Kuroi-sensei is doing the same thing!" She knew it was only passing the buck, but Yui was easily sidetracked with the mention of her best friend and her bad habits.
"Nanako?" The famous Izumi clan smile appeared on the police officer's face. The mischievous cat-like smile grew wider as she tapped her chin. "She's engrossed in her game right now?"
"Mm hm. She's been on since almost six." Commented Konata with a shrug. "She could probably use a breather."
"Thanks Konata!" Yui called as she waved and nearly ran out of the house. Ever since she and her husband had divorced after a mutual agreement that his job was making for a difficult relationship, Konata's cousin had been hanging around the house even more and going to Kuroi's for days at a time.
Standing up with a long stretch, Konata groaned in pleasure as a line of pops ran up her back and arms. At the sound of a light humming beside her, the long haired girl grabbed at her small cell phone, flipping it open. "Wassup?" She mumbled in the middle of a groan as she finally finished her stretch.
"K-Konata?" Came a light, confused voice. It was Tsukasa. Her innocent tone was so easy to pick out.
"Nn, what's going on Tsukasa?" Asked the very short girl on the other end, taking a seat on her neatly made bed.
At the Hiiragi household, Tsukasa fiddled with the cord in her fingers, glancing to her twin sister who lay sprawled across the couch, a book in hand. The short haired girl on the phone cradled the phone closer as she ducked behind the corner closest to the phone. "U-Umm... C-Could you come over?"
Raising a slim eyebrow, Konata slipped off of her bed and began to pull off her pants with a hand as she used her other to hold the small phone. "Sure, what's wrong?"
"W-Well..." Tsukasa's voice dropped into a softy, breathy whisper. "O-Onee-chan has been studying herself to death. I'm scared that if she doesn't take a break, she's going to... I don't know... Hurt herself or something."
Snickering lightly, Konata searched through her clothing, standing bare in her room. "Yeah sure, I'll be over in a little." She reassured the nervous girl. Nearly about to close her phone, the girl with ankle long hair paused. "Oh! Make some cookies!"
"Oh! Of course." Agreed Tsukasa. "See you in a little."
"Bye bye." Konata grinned as she closed her phone and tossed it onto her bed. She pulled out a pair of old jeans, rather large for her height. Pulling the faded blue denim over her bare hips, she hummed Dondake Fanfare to herself. Another look into her dresser, she pulled out a simple white t-shirt and pulled it over her slim chest with a smirk. Back a few years ago, the nerd would have lamented over the lack of size in her chest, but now, along with her utter lack of bodily hair, she took pride in her figure. She was a rare find to those who wanted what she could provide! She was a collector's item! Dramatically, she raised a fist into the air, throwing a dark, scarlet red scarf around her neck.
Chuckling at her own sillyness, she pulled an old, slightly ragged green jacket. It was one her dad had brought home for her after a trip to America. It was an authentic jacket the military used while training in the field. It was warm and big on her and it had that musky scent that anything even slightly militaristic in origin had. Combining with her own, natural scent along with the various deodorants, colognes (who wore perfume?), and whatnot she wore, it gave her a unique scent. "The ladies can't resist it." She stated in a deep voice as she snapped the collar up.
She closed up the jacket before stepping out of her room, peeking her head into her younger cousin's room. Yui's sister was an adorable little thing. Her hair was a soft pink and her features were cute and youthful. Along with her disposition of being weak and feeble, she was almost as moe as Konata's friend Miyuki Takara.
The small girl was busy chatting away with her best friend as they sat close beside each other watching a children's movie. Minami, the unusually tall and slim teenager, sat beside Yutaka with a cool gaze focused on the smaller teen. Konata had her suspicions about the two, mostly Minami. The way the girl sat close to her cousin with a soft blush, occasionally commenting lightly and caring for the weaker girl when needed.
"Ikahodo..." She mumbled as if pushing up a pair of glasses on the bridge of her nose. She continued, passing the room and into the main hallway.
"Going somewhere Konata?" Called Sojiro Izumi, Konata's father from the living room.
"Kagamin's!" She called, slipping on a pair of sneakers, the shoes barely peaking out from under the wide pants legs. The pale girl slipped out the door and quickly made her way down the street, wanting to get to the Hiiragi household quickly. Snow wasn't her favorite thing to be out in when not actually playing in it.
At the sound of a doorbell, Tsukasa, who was waiting in the kitchen while making cookies, quickly ran over, opening the door. "Ah Konata, thank you for coming."
"C-Cold..." Muttered the shorter, older girl as she tightened her grip on her jacket while slipping off her shoes. Emerald eyes searched the entrance curiously. "Where's the tsundere?"
"Tsun...? Oh! Kagami's in here room. She said she had some practice problems left to do before lunch and not to bother her." Now fidgeting with her shirt, she bowed her head. "P-Please go help her relax!"
Patting the girl's shoulders, Konata's lazy gaze was accented with her regular mischievous smile as she looked to the twin sister. "Fear not good king. I'll rescue the princess." She stated with a mirthful tone. "Mm... Those cookies smell great..."
"Oh!" Looking to the kitchen, the girl quickly turned and made her way to her confections.
Loosening her scarf and opening the olive green jacket, Konata made her way further into the home. Using her surprisingly athletic form, she carefully spread her weight between her steps, using her whole feet with each step. With as well as she knew her friend, Kagami probably wouldn't hear her even if she was walking normally.
Carefully, Konata slid the door open to the well known room. She could hear her studious friend grumbling to herself, muttering mathematical equations out loud. Sliding the door closed, the long haired girl watched her target from behind, rubbing her chin. How to execute her attack? Rush over and knock her over? No no, that'd be no good, the girl would get violent. Sneak up beside her and comment on the work? Hmm... No, that wouldn't bring out her inherent tsundere... Starting in realization, the small teen allowed herself a small fist pump of success before she began her attack.
Moving across the floor without a single sound, Konata quickly made her way behind her best friend. This was going to be great.
The twin tailed young woman froze as a pair of dark green sleeve covered arms slid around the base of her neck, slightly chilled clothing as well as a warm body under them pressed against her upper shoulders, neck and head. The hands slowly slid down Kagami's arms and to her hands, taking the pencil out of the left while removing the right from the book. "Kagamin's gonna hurt herself working so hard." Mumbled the otaku in a soft, sweet voice.
"K-Konata?!" Blushed the lilac haired girl, trying to turn her head. "W-What are you doing here?" She frowned a bit, watching the otaku's hands interlace their fingers with hers. "You're interrupting my studying you know. Just because some of us don't care about college doesn't me we're all like that."
"What a thing to say to your rescuer." Konata mumbled, resting her chin on top of Kagami's head. "Tsukasa was getting worried that you'd burn yourself out."
The redness in the taller girl's cheeks grew as her rolling chair was spun and pulled to the edge of her bed where Konata now sat, facing her with a serious look in her eyes. Turning her blue eyes down to her hands which were securely held, she sighed. "I've only been studying for..." She eyed her alarm clock, blinking in confusion. "S-Six hours?"
"Mm, see?" Swinging her legs which rested on both sides of Kagami's, Konata leaned forward closer. "If you keep trying to reel in the fish in the red, you'll lose all your health!"
"That doesn't even make sense." Mumbled the slightly tanned girl as she fidgeted with the smaller hands in hers, pressing her fingers against the flesh of the back of the hands, moving them around and pressing her palms into them. The two had their eyes on the hands, watching their movements absently. Kagami wasn't quite use to the care that Konata was suddenly showing her. Was she actually worried about her?
She blushed as one of her hands were released, the cerulean haired girl's fingers running over the bottom of her own. "W-What?"
"Your hands are kinda rough." Mumbled the nerdy girl. "Kinda like a man's."
"W-What did you say?" She growled gripping the fingers tightly while forcing the hand that still held her other to bend backwards a little.
"Ow ow ow! No need to get violent!"
Light knocks on the door made the two, in the middle of their slight scuffle, to turn their heads. Sliding open, the door revealed Tsukasa with a plate of fresh cookies and glasses of juice. "W-Want a snack Onee-chan?"
It was nearly an hour later when the three were sitting at the small table in the living room. Kagami was busy watching the fujoshi who had pulled her from her studying. After the cookies were finished, Konata had produced a packaged chocolate coronet from her jacket, licking her lips hungrily. The youth never expected to see her eat another one for some time. Konata never really ate them outside of school... At least she never saw her do it.
But about the matter at hand. Kagami's eyes watched the impish girl eating the pastry in her "new and improved style" which involved digging the chocolate out with her tongue. Maybe it was the long years of being without a boyfriend. Maybe it was her tired mind trying to tell her she really did need a break from all that work... But she couldn't stop watching. The pink tongue expertly curved into a shovel like fashion, dipping into the open end of the cone before pulling out a bit of the sweet filling. A sound of joy would emit from the short girl's throat as she savored the chocolaty taste.
Strangely enough, Kagami felt the very pit of her stomach begin to twist and warm, her legs unconsciously squeezing together tightly.
"...You know what I mean Onee-chan?" Tsukasa's voice slowly drew the pig-tailed girl's attention away from the... disturbingly entrancing sight.
"W-What?" Started Kagami as she snapped her head to her twin.
"I was just saying that studying for entrance exams is so hard during the summer because of all the things that you could be doing." Explained the short haired girl. She was dressed in a simple tangerine blouse and pair of long tan shorts. To her left, Kagami nodded a little, looking down at her lap. A pale blue skirt covered her thighs, a long red sweater hugging her form a bit.
Drawing her snack away from her mouth, Konata tilted her head looking to her best friend who sat to her right. "Y'know, I've noticed something." She began, looking over Kagami's body slowly. "Kagamin has lost a fair amount of weight recently."
"Y-You think so?" Asked the suddenly excited girl who Konata focused on.
"Mm." Nodding, the blue haired nerdy teen adjusted her sitting position then smirked mischievously. "It's kinda scary." Kagami's expression suddenly turned to an angry one, even as Konata held her hands of in defense. "I-I mean that you could... Y'know get so wrapped in studying you'd actually forget to eat." Dipping her head down, she snaked her tongue deep into the coronet, extracting a bit of chocolate, smirking to herself. "Poor Tsukasa wouldn't try and pull you from your studying so you never knew when meals were, huh?"
The twins blushed, glancing down to the table. "I-It's not like I can just fool around when there are exams coming up." Looking back to her best friend, Kagami frowned. "And what about you? Have you even studied at all or anything?"
"Mm, actually I've got a spot lined up for an online tech-school. I took a test for it shortly after graduation."
Both sets of light blue eyes stared in surprise at the normally lazy girl who fiddled with the coronet as she glanced between the shocked looks, her own, half-lidded eyes holding a mischievous glint.
Looking to her lap once more, Kagami's slightly flushed features changed as her thoughts whirled. I... I plan on going to Tokyo-U... If I do and she stays here, we'll probably never see each other. I'll see Miyuki every now and then. I think she's going for a physics major and Tsukasa... W-Well... She'll probably go somewhere close to the house if she can.
"How will I ever be able to see my friends if I'm so far away?" Konata mumbled, leaning close to the teenager deep in thought. "Poor Kagamin... Want me to come live with you? I just need my computer." She mumbled, nuzzling the shoulder closest to her.
Snapping her head up, Kagami blushed a little. "W-Would you?" She asked quickly.
"Eh? Well, I mean sure. It'd probably be easier on you for rent." Konata mumbled, surprised she wasn't being yelled at. "Besides, Kagamin needs someone like me and Tsukasa to look after her. She'd burn down her apartment within a week trying to make rice."
"W-What's that supposed to mean?" Growled Kagami as she glared at the girl leaning on her.
A blush spread along her cheeks as Konata nuzzled the shoulder more. "We all know you have zero points in the house duties skill." Snapping up straight, the lazy green eyes went wide. "Oh! It'll be like being married!"
"W-WHAT!?" Now absolutely crimson, Kagami looked away from the small girl. "It'll be nothing like that!" Turning her eyes to Tsukasa who was laughing lightly, she frowned. "Tsukasa! Please get me some more juice."
"Sure Onee-chan." Giggled the slightly naïve teen.
"Oh! Me too!" Konata called as the girl left. Once she was in the kitchen, the long haired girl began to crawl over to Kagami, her coronet resting on the table. "It could be y'know." She mumbled, the sitting girl turned to her, leaning away.
"W-What are you talking about." Kagami asked, looking aside. "You're acting weirder than normal."
One of Konata's small hands found itself on one of the skirt covered legs. "Moving two beds in could be a little bit of a pain... We always just share one." She grinned with a small wink as she continued forward.
Kagami leaned back on a hand, the other settling on the small of Konata's back, her fingers brushing exposed flesh slightly. "D-Don't even think I'd do that." Mumbled the taller girl, her eyes staring into the her friends. Chocolate scented breath washed over her face as on otaku drew closer. "I'm not here to trigger your event scenes."
Grinning a bit, the gamer leaned back slowly, nearly straddling the lap under her. "Good one Kagamin."
"I've got the jui-..." Tsukasa announced, but paused seeing the position the two were in she blushed a bit. "M-Maybe I'll get one for myself!" She quickly stated, shuffling back into the kitchen, a deep red in her cheeks.
"Konata..." Grumbled the light purple haired twin as she pushed her friend off of her. "Don't give my sister weird ideas."
"But fiancés are allowed to do stuff like this!" Protested Konata as she was placed back in front of her coronet.
"Who said we were fiancés!?"
Want more? Tell me in a review and you may just get more. And always, reviews make me happy!
Edit: Yup, I switched the hair and eye colors to their normal ones. I don't want people to get confused if they've never seen the shopped pictures. Tell me please if I miss any!
