Chiyo was travelling with the Sky King towards the place they actually lived and carrying on a conversation while enjoying their time together in the sky. A snarky comment from her male companion seemed to pull from her only a chuckle and a rather devious fanged grin. "Fuck, I mean you're more than welcome to try~" she chimed in while she practically danced in the sky. Each movement she made seemed to take her up around and generally all over the place, in the space immediately around the Sky King. She seemed more than a bit amused as she caught sight of his apparent disgust at the fact that his sister might have gotten rid of his room in remaking the house. "Fuck, if you make faces like that... your face will eventually get stuck that way Shoichi~" she teased finding this rather amusing, as sibling dynamics often were. All this would occur and the two would eventually find themselves at the house they'd previously inhabited with it looking quite a bit different.
"Was that an offer?" was the white-haired male's retort. Moving right along, Shoichi continued his erratic flight pattern until such a time as they arrived where their home once was. Upon seeing the very immaculate building complete with a massive and divided pool to separate the main building from what seemed to be a pool house large enough to be home to another family. On the main building, there was a balcony placed over a sun room, and this was Shoichi's target for landing. "Sugoi! We finally got a proper exit from this place!"
"Fuck, more like a challenge or a dare. But feel free to take it as you wish." the Ice Queen mentioned. It was strange but this conversation felt right to her, so she didn't try to stop it from happening, and the things falling out of her face seemed perfectly normal to her in present company so she wouldn't bother with pretense. Such seemed to be how she was now, all while maintaining a fanged grin. As the house came into view Chiyo's eyes widened. It was now a massive palatial spread of a place complete with a roof over a sun room that she also aimed to land upon along with Shoichi. She had to agree that the place looked great from the outside and she was more than amazed by the several pools included as part of the landscaping among other things. "Sugei!~ But fuck am I gonna miss jumping out of my window at night~" she chimed her statement somewhat sarcastic as she rolled towards the door. "Let's explore, this place is fuckin' huge!!~" she uttered excitedly.
"Have it your way~" Shoichi said in a sing-song voice, deciding in his mind to accept this alleged challenge at his leisure. Without further ado, though, he stepped inside and began hovering around the building. "You can still jump out your window, but why would you? That balcony is where it's at!" As he moved down the halls, Shoichi checked every bedroom possible. Not much to his surprise, he found none that would be classified as his own, in spite of the rooms being furnished as closely to the former house's specifics as possible. Eventually, he gave up on thinking he would get a room, and chose to barge in on what he assumed to be the master bedroom claimed by Roze. When he entered, he found it to be a very generic suite with a note placed atop a large, perfectly made bed. "Oro?" he questioned aloud, taking the piece of paper into his hand to read it. It took him a moment, but Shoichi was soon staring at this parchment in shock and utter disbelief.
Chiyo chuckled and had nothing but her own kind of reply ready. "Fuck, I plan for everything to be my way~" she mentioned as she rolled around inside the new place looking in at bedrooms. She didn't bother asking which one would be hers, figuring that she'd likely just ask Roze whenever they happened to stumble across the woman which she figured would be sometime before she required a bed to sleep in. Regardless of this fact, she followed Shoichi around as he hovered through the new house and seemed to be completely amused and spoke as such. "Well, it won't be any fun jumping out of a window, when we got a space meant exactly for take off and landing..." she said with childish impudence. Upon reaching a very large room which looked to be the master suite she found Shoichi soon picking up a note, and after he read it... he seemed to be a bit stunned for lack of a better term. She rolled around him and looked up. "Fuck, what is that look for?" she asked curiously.
Shoichi hadn't realized Chiyo was following him. This was brought to his attention when she was literally standing in front of him and asking him a question. He took a few more moments to read the note again for clarification, after which he shared the information from it. "It's from Roze. She says she doesn't need the house anymore, so... have at it. I thought I really didn't have a bedroom, but apparently this one's mine." With that said, Shoichi averted his gaze from the note to look around the room, tossing the piece of paper back onto the bed. "That's weird. Guess I own a house now."
Chiyo heard out what Shoichi had to say on the matters of this house and its current ownership and she managed to look stunned for all of about three seconds after hearing the news. In thinking about what Roze was like as a person, she suppose this wasn't the most shocking thing the woman could have done, at the very least she had to appreciate the woman's decorating sense and her like of lavish things. A grin spread across her face as she looked at Shoichi. "Fuck, home ownership at 21." she said. She wondered then what had caused Roze to abandon the home, but thought better of asking as she preferred to avoid the First Generation's Sky Queen as much as humanly possible. "Also this is a fucking big ass room~" the Ice Queen mentioned as she spun around to have a proper look at it.
"Yeah, it-" Shoichi began speaking in a very lackadaisical manner, but soon choked on his words as his eyes widened. He'd come to a realization in the moments following Chiyo's statement; one that he hadn't come to terms with yet. "Shit! I'm 21!? I was 16 like three weeks ago!" he griped, managing to end it all with an exacerbated sigh. Afterwards, though, he was back to being right as rain, continuing his earlier statement. "Yeah. Roze always wants her room the size of a den. Probably for all the slaves she likes to drag around."
Chiyo expected a semi-calm discussion about the massive size of the bedroom they were currently standing in, but soon enough, Shoichi seemed to go on a huge tangent of self-discovery finally realizing how old he was compared to how old he apparently felt. Such a moment was usually unseen in people and the Ice Queen watched as all of the emotion of that moment was built and then the tension seemingly released as the Sky King went back to normal after that bit of thought. "Fuck, I don't think I've ever seen someone have that sort of realization before." she said of his reaction to his aging, only to find herself laughing at his statement about his sister which were about as true as the small Ice Queen could make them in her mind. "I can't even really argue with that~" she said as a giggle escaped her. Of course thereafter she realized if Shoichi was the owner of this house, then the former Sky Queen probably didn't pick her a room. "Fuck, if this is your house now, does that mean I don't just have an assigned room... I was just gonna ask which one was mine when we stumbled across Roze." she said frowning deeply.
"Oro?" he said by force of habit. Frankly, he had yet to consider the overall setup of this building compared to the last; especially regarding room placement and the like. So, as he formed his reply, he rubbed the back of his head in thought. "Oh, shit... I hadn't even thought about that sorta thing. To be honest, this whole thing kinda blew over my head immediately, like we were going to end up sleeping back at the hotel for some reason. It's been so long since the old house, I didn't even register that we actually live here now." With that, he lowered his hand and raised his head toward the sky beyond the window. With a building this size, he could house the entire second generation of Gravity Children, and then some. But, he somehow doubted that would be in their best interest. "Well, I can't exactly assign you a room or anything. I'm not your landlord, and haven't been since Roze came back anyway. I ain't gonna kick you out or anything, though. Sleep wherever you feel comfortable, I guess."
Chiyo looked at Shoichi her eyes widening just for a moment before they went back to normal. She supposed it was rather normal that the Sky King hadn't thought much about the logistics of the lives of his current roommates. She had to admit that it was a new idea even to her, she didn't much like the idea of decorating or anything like that nor did she really care where she slept in respect to anything or anyone else. She'd more than likely choose a bedroom close to a large bathroom and hold up there. "Fuck, you could assign me a room. But if you aren't going to I suppose, I'll just find a room I am okay with and pass out in it later~" she mentioned shrugging the whole thing off. After all, she left the smaller bits of her life up to the other people in it, as such she didn't much care about this or that... there was also the matter of what they'd actually come home to do. "So, would Usagi-nee have come here and claimed a room already?" she questioned rolling backwards toward the door as if she intended to go looking for their pink haired Pledge Queen.
"Meh. I don't think that's a me thing. I don't like telling people where to go and keep their shit when I could just give them the freedom to choose," he said regarding the possibility of assigning Chiyo a room. He had done such a thing once, and it felt incredibly off. In this case, he figured trying something new would be the most optimal way to approach having these new quarters. As he followed the Ice Queen, he considered the idea of the pink-haired girl Usagi having entered the building already. Since they hadn't entered through very conventional means themselves, the likelihood of this being the case was completely open to debate. "I think it's possible. We won't know until we s-" And, just like that, Shoichi was interrupted by means of being knocked over by someone. He looked up, and lo, the pink-haired Pledge Queen of their tower had stumbled over him. She wore a pair of ATs, strangely enough, but this wasn't the first time Shoichi had seen this. "... Search. Found her. I am the world's greatest detective. Worship me."
Chiyo heard out what Shoichi had to say about assigning people places in the world, and she supposed it made sense that he didn't want to do that, given it wasn't really much like him. Giving orders and making people do things was more something the Ice Queen herself would do, and arguing about getting a room didn't seem prudent because she enjoyed the freedom of choosing. "Fuck, well... I can't argue that... and I do like choosing everything so~ I'll just let you know when I do." she said with a nod. As they moved right along it seemed Shoichi also didn't know where they'd find their Pledge Queen without them having to look for her, but soon enough the pink haired young woman seemed to appear of her own volition, which the Sky King would claim credit for. "You don't get fucking credit for finding someone who walks into you. No worship!~" she said grinning with teasing in her voice. She'd then turn to the pink haired young woman and aiming to hug her in a moment of excitement. "Usagi-nee!!~" she chimed as she jumped into the young woman's arms she'd seen a full body of the young woman and went on to comment. "I missed you! Are you riding now too? Wanna do something later?!" she asked in a manner most akin to the way she'd behaved when she was just a hyperactive kid in need of running around.
"Eh? S-... Sho-kun!" the Pledge Queen exclaimed with a reddened face upon realizing what she'd run into and fallen over. She very quickly righted herself and bowed apologetically. "Sumimasen! I was just... uhh... well..." she started, though Shoichi soon interjected with a laugh and a shake of his head. "Having fun, obviously. No need to apologize for that." With that said, the white-haired lad averted his gaze just in time to hear Chiyo rejecting his demand for worship. "I totally get credit for that! It was my super secret awesome detective skills that let me stand right where she was going. You wouldn't know, 'cause you ain't got the power," was his response.
Right after Usagi righted herself and dusted off herself and Shoichi, the girl was rather instantly tackled by the Ice Queen. Meeting the other lass' embrace, she nodded to address the ATs she now wore. "Hai hai! I've been riding for a little over a month now. Let's go on a run together some time!"
"Fuck. No. No credit. She was here having fun and you didn't know it any more than I did." Chiyo said sticking her tongue out at the Sky King. She seemed to be most amused already and as her embrace was returned she found out that their Pledge Queen had been riding proper ATs for a month which is about how long she'd been absent from the general public. But before she'd address this she had one more thing to say to Shoichi. "I got powers, you just don't know which ones!~" this was her final bit of teasing before her attention reverted to Usagi. "Of course! I look forward to it!" the Ice Queen chimed as she finally let go of their Pledge Queen seemingly amused. It appeared that in the month she'd spent in the Flame King's company she hadn't realized how much she missed the rest of her friends, not that she didn't like the Flame King, simply she was used to constant entertainment on a lot more fronts than a single person in general could offer. This was simply how the young Ice Queen dealt with everything in general.
When it was stated that he knew no more than Chiyo about Usagi's presence, Shoichi opened his mouth to speak. However, there was nothing for him to say on the matter, so nothing came out. Chiyo went on to mention having powers which he didn't know about, which prompted Shoichi to dart toward her and grab her by the shoulders, shortly after her release of Usagi. "What!? You've been hiding more stuff from me!? Tell me!" As he went about shaking the Ice Queen by the shoulders, Usagi held a hand over her mouth and chuckled lightly. "Where have you two been, by the way? The house has been here for a couple of weeks now."
A cheeky smile was on the face of the former Fang Queen right up until the moment that Shoichi started shaking her wondering what else she could be hiding from him. She tried to smile but her brain was being shaken like mad as she tried to answer the young man. "Fuck, you're going to shake my brain loose, Shoichi!~" she said her voice seeming to vibrate with the motions that her body was taking. "Besides, I can't show off everything at once, gotta keep a surprise or two." she said as she tried to stabilize herself. It seemed beyond this that the Pledge Queen found this interaction amusing in some way which caused the Ice Queen's eyes to dart in her direction as she shrugged. "Fuck! You didn't get my text, Usagi-nee?" the Ice Queen questioned as it apparently slipped her mind that the Pledge Queen didn't count among the leaders of the Black Order so she wasn't privy to the Ice Queen's month of training with the First Generation's Flame King. Beyond this she never had a problem answering the pink haired young woman's questions and thus she did. "I was being trained in a no gravity space, by Yoichi. I was there for about a month." she said nodding concisely.
"Damnit!" Shoichi said, ceasing the shaking of the Ice Queen and crossing his arms in a huff. In the following moment, though, he was looking through the corner of his eye with a deviant smirk. "I'll just have to draw it out with some of the stuff I've been holdin' back."
Usagi's eyes widened when Chiyo said where she'd been. Her face also reddened instantaneously at the thought that Chiyo had been in a confined space with the Flame King Kurama for a month. "Y-... Yoichi!? You mean...?" she asked. The tone she spoke in, and the expression on her face at the time, caused the young Sky King to raise a brow. "Oro?"
The Ice Queen was finally let go of so she'd stop having her head shaken and she held her head with her eyes appearing to swirl as she blinked a couple of times. Still, she was pretty much back to herself by the time the deviant smirk and eyeing of the Sky King happened along with his statement that he intended to draw out the rest of Chiyo's new skills with something he'd apparently been holding back. "Fuck, I knew you were holding out on me. Expecting me to put everything on the table when you haven't done the same~" she teased. "Unfair." she followed up sticking her tongue out at the white haired young man. Soon after Chiyo's explanation about where she'd been seemed to bring about a bit of recognition from the Pledge Queen and a blush which Chiyo noticed and it made her chuckle. "Fuck. Yes, the First Generation's Flame King." she said having a few choice ideas of why the pink haired young woman had reacted the way she had at the mention of his name.
"Why would I just show everything I've got? Then I've got nothing to pull out against whatever you've been hiding," Shoichi replied. In the meantime, Usagi was showing a great deal of surprise at the confirmation Chiyo had given her. Shoichi was a bit out of the loop here, so he simply stood still as Usagi continued to question the Ice Queen's experience. "Sou ka... So... did you get to...?"
Chiyo's eyes darted to the Sky King and she found herself chuckling at his logic. "You say that knowing I'm hiding something now, you didn't know that in the first place, and you still held out on me. Unfair." she said frowning slightly not liking something about what she said. "Actually, no... I am not hiding anything. The other things I have learned weren't necessarily useful in our first meeting today. And what makes you think you'll need something against whatever you haven't seen yet huh?" she asked. This was the truth, because the Ice Queen had a few new skills but not all of them seemed necessary for a moment or two of conversation in a friendly manner. It would seem that the pink haired young woman was content to ask about the Ice Queen's doings with the Flame King though in not so many words. At first Chiyo seemed to process the question asked very slowly as if she hadn't quite caught the meaning, which she only needed a second or two more to get to the right idea and when she did her eyes widened and she stared at the Pledge Queen blankly. Still she wasn't going to lie to the other girl about it so she answered as she usually did. "Oh... that's what you're getting at huh? Yes." she said with another nod.
As this exchange happened between Chiyo and Usagi, Shoichi's confusion and wonder became apparent. When Usagi spoke, he leaned toward her with a hand pressed against his chin in thought. When Chiyo answered the other lass' question, he leaned in her direction with the same pose. What he took from this conversation was not at all what was actually being discussed. But, such was the thought pattern of one Takeuchi Shoichi. "Ehh!? You're talking about some super secret trick, aren't you? I wanna know, damnit!"
Chiyo had said all she intended to say right now about her encounter with the Flame King. Of course, it seemed that Shoichi thought he was being left out of this conversation and though Chiyo was about to fill him in on what they'd been discussing in a very straight forward manner, it seemed that the Sky King's assumption about their discussion was that it had to do with a trick. This caused the Ice Queen to turn to the young man and look at him blinking three times. While thinking about the situation... 'Only Shoichi, would assume that I spent a month alone with an attractive man and the thing we're discussing right now is all about ATs.' she thought only to smile at the Sky King. The blandness of his thoughts when they weren't specifically about chasing skirts made the Ice Queen rather happy to know him, and she realized it was his easy-going one-track mind that she liked and missed about him while she'd been gone. The thought she had and his simple mindedness made her happy so she jumped at him slipping her arms around his neck and offering him a hug while she explained. "No. That wasn't at all what we were talking about, though I'll tell you if you actually want to know. And I promise, I'll show you every trick I have... if you really want to see them." she said seeming to be very happy right now and ever honest.
Usagi had been prepared to react to what she heard, but Shoichi's interjection made her take pause. In the heat of the moment, she'd forgotten the Sky King was present, and didn't know how to address the matter now that he was involved. But, it seemed things were going to work out just find, considering the male's AT-filled brain. There was only one little hiccup in this train of thought. Apparently, Chiyo was content to tell the young man what he wanted to know, but Usagi didn't assume he cared if he knew it wasn't a trick or something.
With the Ice Queen's sudden embrace, Shoichi was only made more confused. On the other hand, she clarified that she and the Pledge Queen were not referring to a trick, and offered to both explain the discussion, and showcase her tricks. "Not a trick? Oro... Well, sure then. I'll take all that good shit."
Chiyo was content and her hug seemed to confuse Shoichi and after she was content to let him go she saw the look on the face of the Pledge Queen. She wasn't sure what to make of it, but she figured it had simply slipped the pink haired young woman's mind that Shoichi was with them when she began to question the leisure activities of the Ice Queen and the Flame King. When Shoichi mentioned that he did actually care what the Ice Queen and the Pledge Queen were discussing she looked up at him and then at the Pledge Queen pausing if only to consider the wording of a sentence which wouldn't cause the Pledge Queen to blush or faint. "Usagi-nee wanted to know if I made it with the Flame King when I was alone with him." she said with a nod. With that very succinct and almost politically correct explanation of the Pledge Queen's question out of the way she moved right along to the rest of what she'd promised. "I'll show you the rest of my tricks when we go outside, though I could probably give a minor demonstration of the other skills now if you wanted to observe them while they aren't being used on you." she mentioned her eyes flickering over the Pledge Queen as she mentally decided on a very easy way to showcase the simpler uses of her eye.
And so, his curiosity was sated, followed by the progression of Chiyo's thought train into the matter of her new tricks. As she moved on, though, Shoichi was just registering the earlier statement made by the lass. His eyes widened slightly, briefly flashing the form of the Over-Cross Twinkle Eye before reverting to normal. When this happened, his demeanor altered ever so slightly, seeming to hold an air of minor disgust. "Wait wait wait. That weirdo!? That's fuckin' gross! Where'd your standards go?"
And just like that everything seemed to be fine. Until apparently the sentence she spoke earlier seemed to fully dawn upon the Sky King what the Ice Queen meant or rather it just seemed to register in his brain. And the reaction which came from it shocked the black haired girl as she tried to think of why the Sky King would almost Brain Charger and be upset about it. Partly because she'd be exposed to the forms of the Sky King's other personalities and neither of them would have been upset with what she'd done, so obviously this was something of the Sky King's own problem. "Huh? Hold up..." she said looking at him as if she was well and truly confused. "My standards?" she said her head tilting all the way to the left as she began rolling around the Sky King. She didn't know what the Sky King was getting at in this moment, but something about it seemed to annoy her deeply, it was a nagging sensation at the back of her mind that she'd only recently come to understand.
"Yes, your..." Shoichi's retort came to an early end due to the gathering of thoughts prior to its completion. In the end, he decided against going down this proverbial road, choosing instead to turn his gaze away. "No... No, nothing. I just don't like that guy; ignore me. It's not like I can say anything about skipped training either, since I ended up in the same boat on my end." With that said, Shoichi stood and allowed the Sky Regalia to part around his feet so he could quite literally step out of his ATs. "Anyway. Hey Tink, you up for tuning something?" he asked, shifting his attention toward the Pledge Queen, who nodded in response. "Sweet. Take those old Bagram cores back out. I'm handing them off."
"H-hai..." said Usagi. Though the pink-haired young woman was quite perturbed by the interaction she'd been seeing unfold before her, she figured she'd at least diffuse a bit of tension by quickly accepting this task. As such, she took hold of the Sky Regalia when it was offered, and beckoned Chiyo toward herself.
She'd been ready for a fight at the start of the Sky King's first sentence. She didn't know why but she didn't much like the type of hypocrisy he was about to lay down on her. But this wasn't meant to be... Chiyo took a deep breath and when the Sky King next spoke she closed her eyes and let it go. Mostly because the confirmation that he'd done the same thing allowed her to clarify what must have been the Sky King's minor bout of jealousy. Chiyo could somewhat understand, but she couldn't bother feeling jealous about anything given that the Sky King she'd known had always been pretty free with himself. She'd already assumed such a thing had taken place. Beyond this the little Ice Queen didn't even bother explaining that she'd figured all of that information for herself she simply said nothing more as Shoichi stepped out of his regalia and the Pledge Queen beckoned her forward. Chiyo took the step forward immediately understanding what the Sky King meant. "Sou ka... that's what you meant." she said of the apparent undiscussed plan to help her finish off her Regalia.
Choosing to get right down to business, Usagi activated her own Regalia while stepping toward Chiyo's fore. The Ice Queen's Regalia was taken up by numerous mechanical butterflies while the same happened with the Sky Regalia. These butterflies took apart both Regalia, reassembling the latter once the former Wind Regalia's core had been taken out. As for Chiyo's... there was a bit more to be done. Once again, Usagi found herself adding more to these ATs than what would normally be required of an upgrade, if only to make room for the number of Regalia cores present. "Ano... This isn't an Ice Regalia anymore..." she said. She looked to Shoichi, seeking confirmation that he wanted this core offered to Chiyo's Regalia. However, the white-haired male had already walked away during the separation of parts.
Chiyo was left to watch Shoichi, walking away from this situation. She didn't really get it, but she supposed like all other things it would work itself out eventually. Beyond this it seemed that the present issue presented by the Pledge Queen was that the Regalia bore by the Ice Queen wasn't really an Ice Regalia anymore. A small giggle escaped the Ice Queen as she seemed to return to a bit of a happier place in her mind. "Usagi-nee, it isn't supposed to be an Ice Regalia." she mentioned. It had been revealed to her a few days prior to this one that she was meant to be Storm Queen or at least that would be what she was eventually. But at the same time it was mentioned that she wasn't a big enough storm yet to do much of anything that way. Perhaps the addition of wind would make that better... which was likely the thought of the Sky King when he said he knew what to add.
"Hai. I see that. But..." Usagi's thoughts began to trail off as she inspected the parts floating around herself and the fanged lass. The moment she considered the combination of Shoichi's Regalia core and this Regalia, she foresaw the development into that which could only be called a Storm. However... "If I make this with Bagram's core, I'd basically be switching the two of you. Not literally, but... it's making one thing incomplete again, to complete another thing. I guess it's already been decided, though..." And with that, Usagi willed the return of all parts into Chiyo's ATs, complete with the added core of Moonstruck Drop Bagram - Strike. These now mid-thigh high ATs would be complete with blade-like wings and ankle-to-heel spike protrusions in their active form, and would generally be found more easily used for projectile tricks. "I give birth to the Storm Regalia: Crazy Diamond!" Once again in this moment, Usagi found herself holding on to the Sky Regalia, which only reminded her of the earlier incident. This caused her to bow again, this time toward the newly crowned Storm Queen. "Sumimasen! I didn't mean to bring that up earlier."
Chiyo considered what the Pledge Queen had to say about the switching of the last regalia core piece. It made her wonder why Shoichi would agree to such a thing, or even have an idea like that again. It seemed that he was quite content to simply give all of himself to her betterment even if it meant breaking himself in the process. She was having a hard time figuring out why he'd be so self-less. Chiyo continued to think as her Pledge Queen apparently made the decision to finish off her Regalia while stripping Shoichi's of its core. In doing so she created and named the Regalia which had been missing a name the entire time she'd had it. A smile crossed the fanged girl's face as this work was finished. "Crazy Diamond, huh? I was wondering what you'd name it~ Arigatou Gozaimasu, Usagi-nee!" she chimed but she was a bit stunned when the pink haired girl went on to apologize for the earlier incident. Chiyo looked at her strangely and shook her head moving a few steps forward so she could hug the other girl. "Nope, you don't get to apologize... even I didn't predict that kind of reaction." she said of the incident still not really knowing what to make of it. "It wasn't your fault. You were curious, and I didn't think it was a big deal." she said her brows drawing together. It seemed to her that there was something complex going on here that she'd probably need someone to explain to her. Again.
"There's much more to its abilities now. I also reorganized the original components, so you can feel the weightlessness of the tower, too," Usagi explained. She went no further, figuring Chiyo would understand completely upon experiencing her own movements very soon. As for the other matter they had been discussing, the Pledge Queen's reaction began with a snicker. "You two are interesting people," was all she said while separating herself from the Storm Queen.
"Reorganized?!" this was a question with a bit of excitement. Chiyo knew herself to be a fairly creative person so she was kind of already happy about the idea of being able to do more stuff but she didn't really understand what the Pledge Queen meant by her statement about the changes to her ATs. This would be something she'd experience once she was freed from the embrace which was done with a snicker and more commentary. "Fuck, why are we interesting?" she questioned this, because she really didn't get it. Beyond this the newly crowned Storm Queen pushed off backwards from Usagi and the first movement she did made her eyes widen as she arced in the hallway. "What the hell?!"
Three queries were offered by Chiyo, and zero were answered by the pink-haired girl. She merely watched as the Storm Queen had her first experience with her upgraded ATs, smiling when she came to understand the feeling Usagi's tuning now offered. "Have fun, Chi-chan!" she said. With that, the Pledge Queen bowed and made her leave to other areas of the house.
It appeared that the Storm Queen wouldn't be getting the answers to the questions she'd asked, but then she supposed she couldn't find any fault with this. She quite enjoyed figuring out most things of her own accord. So she just smiled as the young woman crept off into some other area of the house after observing her first few moments. "Arigatou Gozaimasu~ Ja... Usagi-nee." she said as she wandered off in the same direction Shoichi had gone, mostly to figure out what he intended to do if he'd just mutilated the Sky Regalia to give her the current amount of completeness she bore. So she could be seen peeking into random doors until either she found him or she didn't. More than anything she didn't always understand the Sky King's motivations... of course she also didn't realize that she'd yet to have a proper conversation with the young man about how they worked as a pairing or team. But she did promise to show him all of her tricks so there would be that.
At dusk fall of the very same day, the Sky King returned to his new abode via balcony entry from the master bedroom; a feature surely implemented with this in mind. As he pulled the sliding door to said balcony open and stepped inside, he used his free hand to light one of a few cigarettes he seemed to have snagged off the Water Queen during a moment of being in Brain Charger state. Not bothering to discard his Regalia, or any clothing at all, he hopped onto the bed and placed his hands between his head and the pillows, taking slow drags from the freshly lit cigarette as his eyes came to a close.
Around night fall the same day, the Storm Queen Chiyo also returned, taking to landing on the launch point of the roof which she'd used on her earlier entrance. Her t-shirt was in prestine condition if not a little wet but her shorts were in complete and utter tatters all the way up to her hips. She came equipped with a bag full of quick clothing change options for a day or so, until she could get the twins in to install her closet, not that she was sure about that given the current state of her clothing due to the activation of her regalia. She kicked the snow and nice to the side, clearing a path to get into the house and once she was there she called out looking for the Pledge Queen of her generation. "Usagi-nee!!! Are you home?!" she questioned as she rolled along. She was already certain of the room she wanted which, had been decided based on its position in the house and the windows which were in it. It was surprisingly enough the one which was across the hall from the Master Suite and exactly four doors to the left. Once she arrived there she opened the door and sat the bag down beside the door pulling out a pair of sealed up pajamas which she intended to wear after testing out the bathing facilities of this place anew.
