prompt 1 : Wishing Tree

Hanako Tone
──*̥˚───❀*̥˚─
Why was it so hard to wish for something that wasn’t for self-gain? Thought the selfish guy, who had been staring at a blank sheet or paper for 10 minutes by now. Just as the tip of the charcoal in his pencil scraped against the paper, he pulled it back hesitating. “ Urgh, this is precisely why I don’t do this”, he sighed, leaning against the seat of the bench he sat on while he was going through this whole ordeal. Coming here without a date blows. There were only a handful of times where Hanako decided to participate in the Wishing Tree part of the festival. And every time he tries to do it, it seems to be harder and harder for him to think of something to write. It was like a fog shrouded his thinking. He didn’t even want to think about how he was meant to grant another wish later.

”What is precisely why you don’t do this?” a voice asked as a sandy-blonde young man of somewhat short stature came up to the black-haired one. His light pink eyes wandered over to the paper on which the stranger had barely made a mark before he giggled. “Oh! Are you having trouble coming up with a wish?” he asked, smiling at the paper. “It can be hard if you’re happy with everything you have. But if you can’t think of one for someone else to grant, why don’t you try to think of something for yourself to grant? Like improving yourself?”

He took a piece of paper of his own from the blank ones by the tree and borrowed a pen to write his own wish. It took him a while to think about what to write, however. Eventually, he put, ’I wish that everyone could feel a little less lonely.’ Then he placed it on the tree, hanging it on a low branch. Next to the stack of papers meant for wishes to be written on them were a variety of star charms for people to take, so Leiko picked out a Sapphire Star Charm, thinking about how Tymiko might have liked it if he gave it to her back at their apartment. Smiling at it and the way it caught the light, he pocketed it to gift it later. Blue, even if not this particular blue, was still her favorite color if he recalled correctly. And if she didn’t like it, he could always give it to Kit instead who he knew would appreciate it and the gesture regardless of anything else.

“Want to pick a star charm out?” Leiko asked the black-haired young man before realizing he looked familiar. That was right; he’d seen him before. He was that young man from the convenience store he’d sent a Mirrorwraith to steal energy from one night! It was a good thing magical glamour protected people from identifying powered-up beings as civilians because he would have had reason to be a great deal more embarrassed. Not only for not having recognized the other fellow immediately, but for having stolen his energy. Not that the guy had had to know his energy had been stolen, but it had still made Leiko guilty and ashamed of himself regardless.

It was so much easier to steal energy from people when you didn’t know them. Unfortunately, he had found that out the hard way when he had gotten involved, trying to help the other young man with his groceries once he had been too drained of energy to even hold onto the bags. The more he got to know him, the worse he’d felt about what he’d done. After that night, he hadn’t thought he would have ever had to run into that young man again. And maybe he wouldn’t have if his air-headed self hadn’t decided to stroll on over and talk to the familiar-looking fellow who had been talking and sighing to himself. That was what he got for being so brainless and not paying enough attention to who he was talking to before he talked to them.

Hanako stopped writing to look up at the other with a slightly surprised, but curious gaze. Odd, he seemed familiar but Hanako coudn't put his finger on it. Oh who cares. He was cute, blonde hair and pink eyes

He didn't really need to answer the other's question when the other already saw the blank paper and guessed correctly. " Well, the problem is there's not really any need to improve something that's already perfection isn't it?" he smirked haughtily, brushing the slight of his hair to the side like it was a practiced movement to emphasize his point. " If anything people would benefit more to their overall life experience if they were a little more like me" he shrugged.

Hanako watched at the other went to easily write his wish. He was half tempted to get up from where he sat to peek at what the other thought off. But decided it might be better to be a question he asks later. Momentarily distracted, he merely watched the other apologetically as the other hang their wish on a tree. Perhaps even at places that were a bit inappropriate. But if its less than 5 seconds, it doesn't count. At least that's what Hanako thought.

His eyes finally going from the others lower half to his light pink eyes when he mentioned the charms.

"Hm... I'm not that interested in those little things" he said, decided to stand up- paper and pen in one hand and made his way closer to the stranger, looking at the assortment of charms on display. Eyeing it for a moment before glancing at the blue one the stranger had in his hands. " And you? Picking that out for yourself or someone special?"
