Puppets || {open}

broken-puppeteer:

One hobby that Shu didn’t indulge in often was the art of puppetry. Much like the way he had directed Kagehira and Nito once upon a time on the stage, Shu was actually quite proficient at handling the strings and motions of puppeteering. Though he didn’t own his own puppet.

Now that he was in Bellevue and had finally settled into something resembling somewhat of an actual schedule in regards to classes, work, and the time he spent nagging Kanata, he had been looking around the city for a store that either sold puppets or where he could buy parts to make one himself. He’d make his own from scratch, because he was so picky about things like that, but those skills weren’t in his skillset. Yet.

It had taken a while of searching but he’d found a small antique shop and a suitable puppet within the store had been procured. The first manner of business was clothing the puppet in a newer set of clothes. While the outfit it came with had been fairly nice, there were patches that needed fixing. Shu saved those for a later project, making a mental note to track down the fabric necessary to do so.

Matching the new outfit to one that was reminiscent to the old Valkyrie uniform felt natural. Even Mademoiselle had a matching dress.

His darling doll was sat with him as he worked, detailing out loud to her what he was doing. A black shirt like Kagehira had worn… the white ribbon that Nito had worn… the outer jacket that he himself had adorned. Shorts and leggings like Nito’s old uniform. Small black boots and a black feather earring like Kagehira had had. And a miniature top hat like the one that now sat at the back of his closet. There. A nice matching outfit to Mademoiselle’s dress.

Leaving the house with Mademoiselle on one arm and the new puppet on the other. Shu wandered for a while till he arrived at a fairly empty park and found a nice shaded area to settle down in. He carefully sat Mademoiselle down and stood before her, bowing to her and slowly, as if remembering the motions, directing his new puppet to do the same.

Happy with the smoothness of the puppet’s movements and the way the clothes he had made moved easily with the ways he was manipulating the doll, Shu sang as he directed the puppet into dancing across the grass, attention completely focused on this impromptu show and not on whether or not he was attracting attention.

      Kyouhei’s love of the earth often had him looking up local parks and trails to adventure in, so it was only a matter of time until he actually went to visit one, and why not do it in the best conditions?

      Between breathing the fresh, foresty-y air deeply and the feeling of the sun on his skin, what could be better? Aside from sitting in the dirt or running around with a dog, or some friends of course!

      It was a surprise he heard anything over the background noise of the park, but it was mostly because the noise was so striking/surprising that he sought it out.

      After all, what kind of person sang in public parks?

      Curiosity driving him forwards, Kyouhei didn’t consider for a moment that his attention would be unwelcome as he approached the source of the noise from the side, stopping when he was close enough to see what was going on.

      “Is that a marionette?” He wondered out loud, leaning against a nearby tree with his hands in his pockets, content with listening to the person (male, pink hair) while he directed the puppet.
