Nobara picks at the corner of her eyepatch with a freshly-painted nail.
Her idiots are late, as usual, but she’s kinda grateful. It gives her a few minutes to let the paint dry.
They aren’t usually painted, too much hassle, but she passed this color at the drug store and it stopped her in her tracks.
It’s them, if a nail polish could be three people. A rich dark navy, flecked with burnt orange glitter that shifts pink in the light.
Nobara raises her hand to the sun, twirling her fingers to catch the color shift, then hears and all-too-familiar laugh.
“Who’re ya wavin’ at, we’re back here!”
She rolls her eyes and glares over her shoulder. Yuuji waves like a maniac, Megumi smiles softly, and she can’t help but relax her eyebrows when she realizes they’re holding hands.
Well, it moreso looks like Yuuji has Megumi’s hand in a vice grip, but they’ll take what they can get with that one.
“Wasn’t wavin’” she says as they approach, “Lookit.”
Yuuji yanks her hand towards his face, mesmerized by the changing colors; Megumi stares in awe.
“Look, Megumi, it’s blue like you!”
Nobara catches the moment Megumi’s cheeks shift pink.
