Shaking her head, Chika rose from her bed and started getting dressed. A still sleeping Verna grumbled at the loss of her object of snuggling, and settled on the Vert-body pillow instead. Verna smiled in content, while Chika's eye twitched. Relax Chika, she's just a little girl. Don't lose your cool.
Sighing, Chika left her room and made her way towards the kitchen, hoping she can make it up to Vert by making a delicious breakfast. Maybe some omelets? Or some pancakes? Or she could try-
"Good morning Chika."
Of course, Chika didn't expect her dearest to already be in the kitchen. As such, she jumped a good several feet at the sound of her voice. Vert let out a chuckle as Chika tried to restart her heart. When she turned to face Vert, she grew mortified.
"U-Uh, V-Vert...I...I mean...y-you weren't..." Chika tripped over her words, trying to come up with something to say. Vert simply smiled.
"Chika, calm down. I'm not mad anymore."
Chika stood there, stunned. "Y-You're not?" Chika felt like she was having deja vu, sans Verna pigging out on the snacks.
"No. I saw what happened in your bedroom last night."
Chika's eyes widened. A wave of embarrassment came over her when she realized this. S-She never thought Vert would catch her in that sort of state! And with Verna of all people just made it even worse! But...since Vert was smiling at her in the first time in days, maybe it wasn't such a bad thing?
"I've thought about it, and perhaps I may have been too harsh on you Chika. You and Verna seem to get along well, and as long as you promise to never do something like that again, then I'll forgive you for what-"
Vert didn't get to finish, as she was caught in a bone crushing hug by the Oracle. For a girl her stature, she was ridiculously strong.
"THANKYOUTHANKYOTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!" Came the string of thanks from Chika. She didn't really seem to notice that Vert's face was starting to turn blue from lack of oxygen.
"Urk...C-Chika...c-crushing me..." Strained Vert. Realizing that her beloved was an interesting , yet startling, shade of blue, she finally let go. The CPU had to gasp for air after.
"Sorry." Said an embarrassed Chika.
"I-It's alright..."
"Mmm...What's going on?"
The two turned to see a barley awake Verna. Her eyes were half closed and she looked like she was going to collapse at any second. She actually did zone out for a bit, and would have fell on her face had she not woken up at the last second and frantically regained her balance. Vert chuckled, then noticed something peculiar in Verna's right hand. Chika noticed it too, and blanched.
"I-Is that...?"
"NAGH!" Chika practically dove and grabbed the object in Verna's hands. What was it you may ask? A special premium body pillow of Green Heart that Chika had ordered 3 months ago. Now this wouldn't be such a bad thing, had Green Hearts image not been of her in the nude. Both Chika and Vert blushed, more Chika than Vert.
"W-W-Where did you find this?!" A mortified Chika asked. She hid this thing! She only brought this out for...er...special occasions! How did SHE get her hands on it?!
"Well...I found it in a closet when I woke up...it's really comfy, but there were some weird white stains on it..."
"Ug...guh..." Chika couldn't even form comprehensible words. Her face turned a whole new shade of red as steam rose from her ears. Vert was giving her a look that tripled her already mass embarrassment. Slowly, she walked back to her room and just threw it in there, before repeatedly banging her head against her door in sheer embarrassment and frustration. Verna didn't really understand, but this she wanted to say:
"I really liked the picture. You have a great body sis..."
"U-Uh..." Vert was at a loss for words. Verna's comment was laced with innocence, and she was grateful for that, but she really needed to double check the Basilicom. This was what, the second time Verna ran into something inappropriate in the last two days? She was pretty sure she heard Chika screaming in the background "W-Would you like some breakfast?"
"Please..."
Sighing somewhat miserably over what just happened, Vert opened the cabinets to make something for Verna...
...Only to be met with complete and utter nothingness.
"Oh my, I think I need to go shopping again..." Vert grimaced, realizing that she had nothing to cook for Verna. It was at that point Chika came back, red faced but other wise calm.
"I'm back..." Chika deadpanned.
"Hiya..." Said Verna, completely and innocently oblivious to the embarrassment she just caused the Oracle. She glared at her in response.
"Chika, it seems we are low on food. Could you please make some toast for Verna while I go shopping?"
"Absolutely." Chika said, hoping that Vert wanted to forget about the situation as much as she did. Considering the look she got from the CPU, it was quite possible. Getting the bread, Chika pulled out two slices and put them in the toaster. In the process, she ended up knocking a glass of water over and spilled it over the leftover bread on the table.
"Ah damn it!" Exclaimed Chika.
"Chika, language! Not in front of Verna!" Vert chastised.
"I'm sorry darling! It's just...uh, is she alright?" Both women turned their heads to look at Verna. She was staring at the water soaked bread like it was a monster, and her face was as green as Green Hearts hair.
"Verna, are you alright dear?" Vert asked in worry.
Verna didn't answer. She chose to bolt from the kitchen and head to the bathroom, where she proceeded to puke in the toilet.
"Oh my Verna, are you sick?!" Vert asked, even more worried than before. She placed a hand on her sisters head while she was resting. She FELT alright at least.
"W-Wet bread...I hate...wet bread..." Verna groaned, then proceeded to throw up yet again.
...What?
"Wet bread makes you nauseous?" Vert asked in bewilderment.
The Candidate nodded meekly in response. Her head rested on the toilet, not quite sure if she was going to puke again or not.
"...Alright then..." Vert didn't really have a response to this. It was a very...odd thing to get sick over. All she could really say was: "Who knew?" She gave Verna's back a comforting rub, hoping it was giving her some comfort in her moment of misery.
-O-
Boys. That's all Verna saw in her sisters room. Well, 40% of it anyway. And it wasn't regular boy stuff either, it was a little something called Yaoi. You see, for those you don't know, Vert has a love for Yaoi. Her room had a sort of collection for this sort of thing, ranging from books, to posters, to even Visual Novels on her computer. She had introduced it to Nepgear at one point, and she felt that she wanted to do the same with Verna.
The only problem was, she was particularly interested in this sort of thing.
It's not that she hated it or anything, it just wasn't her cup of tea. The young Candidate stared at the computer screen, where she was in the middle of playing one of Vert's endless Yaoi VN's. She sat there with an uninterested expression, reading through it mindlessly and clicking the mouse every now and then. She was about to zone out when she heard the door clicking, and she saw Chika enter the room.
"Hi Miss Chika." Verna greeted off handedly. "What are you doing in sis's room?"
"My dearest is taking a shower, and she wants me to supply her with a towel." Replied Chika, trying her best to get over the fact Verna was in here with her. She noticed the deadpan look on the girls face, and raised an eyebrow. "Why are you in here, and what's with that look?"
"Well, sis is trying to get me into these Yaoi games, but...it's not something I'm interested in."
Chika's eyes widened, shocked that Vert's own flesh and blood wasn't into Yaoi. As Verna continued to sit there, Chika felt the need to help her out. Just this once.
"Well, if you're not interested, let me introduce you to a better alternative..." Clicking out of the little window, Chika pulled up a web search and typed something in, then left with a towel in hand, silently hoping that she would get to dry Vert off.
Verna sat there, her interest peaked as she looked at the various images and videos. All created by one word that changed Verna's life.
Yuri.
Vert walked back into her room, a towel wrapped around her neck with still wet hair, and was shocked to see what had happened during her shower.
"V-Verna, what is this?"
"Miss Chika introduced me to Yuri! Girl Love is where it's at!" Verna proclaimed, who was currently watching a Yuri anime. One could practically see the hearts in Verna's eyes during a kissing scene between the main characters. Vert's eye twitched.
"Chika...YOU TRAITOR!" Vert exclaimed in comical rage. An evil laugh could be heard in the background, leading Vert charge after it, leaving Verna alone with her precious Yuri once more.
