Push it to the Limit

Akashi cradled Adrian gently in her arms, smiling and continuing to pet her soothingly. She smiled but her tears began to slow down a bit. "Sometimes things go right, sometimes they go wrong. It's ok, you know? Most people are willing to forgive if you give them the opportunity." She then looked down. "But... we ARE fine... so.. in the end, everything worked out."

Akashi then tilted her head at Adrian's question. She Held Adrian out at arms length and looked at her with a smile. She wiped away her tears with her arm and then held out her pinky finger. "Because, we're connected." She said and wiggled her finger. "We share a bond with one another, through better or for worse." Akashi brought her hand down and pressed it against the top part of Adrian's breast, just where her heart should be. "When you meet someone, you make an impression on them whether you want to or not. That impression will last a life time but it can grow weak or strong. The things you do determine how strong that bond is and whether the feelings that come across are good or bad."

Akashi pulled her hand away, took Adrian's hand and pressed it against her own chest. "Like I said earlier. When you do certain things, you deepen those bonds. You and I, we've shared intimate moments together. I can't ignore that." Akashi released Adrian's hand. "And I couldn't live with myself if those bonds were tied together with discord when they need not be."

Akashi let her hands drop to her side. She clenched her fists and bowed to Adrian. "Thank you for your kind words, Adrian-chan. But, I'm just a woman like you. If I was awesome, I wouldn't have let this situation escalate to the point where we were both in tears and screaming at one another. For that, I am ashamed."

Adrian's tears started to dry up as Akashi started to explain "...I don't get it." she admitted before hugging the sumo again with a slight giggle inbewteen the sniffs. "H-hey! Why are you going all formal and stuff? We're okay now aren't we?" the cosplayer asked as Akashi broke away and bowed. It had been an interesting and important day, but still: there were things to do. "I probably should head back... get my stuff... but um... how am I gonna leave without my mask? All I have with me is my Outfit and a T-shirt. What am I supposed to do, pull a T-shirt over my head while one of you takes me to my place? I don't have a car to drive."
