Nestled in a quiet part of the outskirts of the Breezy Quarter, a certain Blue haired student was busy unloading a container and moving furniture into the five bedroom house. The covered porch was a nice sorting space for now. She did not have many boxes on it. Mainly a few filled with easy packed beds and the frames that would support them. Couches and chairs were just inside the doorway. Ami was dressed fairly regularly for her home in Shibuya. A White with blue trim t-shirt, blue jean shorts and slip on shoes with a decent sole for heavy work. She had a pale blue towel around her neck. Since she was the first here, she did not have anyone to help with the move. Plus if this was to be the base of operations for the other senshi, the fewer that knew everything about the place, the better.
Pulling a box from the container filled with plate sets and breakable dinner ware, she heard some foot steps on the path in front of the home. She would smile and give them a nod of a greeting before turning towards the house. She was a student at the academy so it would reflect poorly on them if she wasn't friendly and acknowledged others that was living next to her.

He'd been out and about, messing with worlds going place to place... A person always needed a break, and actually go to their classes and do the homework. Lucky for him that was about Fifty Percent of the time, surprise nobody kicked him out of the academy. Then again there was the option of being locked up, that didn't quite sound like fun either, perhaps he should attend his classes correctly? Detention was very very off-putting.
Wearing what looked to be a long tail-tailed blue coat, with his right hand in one pocket, left hand holding a sea-salt ice-cream made his way across toward the residential area. The shirt of choice was a simple Masked dragon It would be nice to head home, and just relax the rest of that summer day away, but hoho.. Something new and Exciting was going on! Somebody was moving in! A big house no less! Two-stories, it did need a bit of an upgrade, but hey better than his Small simple shared Residential home.
Snaking his way over, Try to get a Better look at just Whom was moving in. All to see a short choppy blue hair girl giving a smile and nod of greeting. The look was so sincere so sweet, he almost felt a small little tickle in his heart. He gave a slight gentle smile unknowingly mimicking her, raising up a hand in greeting. "Why you must be the New Girl." Seriously he had no idea if this was true or not, and just felt it would accurate... Why with her moving in, he never seeing her before [didn't help he skipped a lot], and finally just felt right. He stood there for a moment looking at all the boxes, "Boy, seems you have a lot of work ahead of you. Must probably take you rest of the Afternoon to get these all moved in. Where's the help?"
The boy seemed to smile back to her. His outfit was definitely more American than her own. The Jacket really told it though. Adjusting the box in her hand, she had to stop when he waved to her and asked her about being the new girl. That must mean he is an Academy student as well. Did he live around here as well? He then made mention of all the work ahead of her. She could only give a sigh on that. "Well maybe a bit longer. Furniture for ten and one person to move it all in. I think I should be done with the container by the end of the month."
With her planning, she already had the heavy furniture inside and in place. It was mainly a lot of manageable stuff and a lot more light stuff. "The 'help' will be arriving. I just do not know exactly when." She was absolutely certain everyone else was on their way here. If she had been blessed with this power, there was no doubt that the stronger fighters of her friends would be brought in with them as well. "I'm Mizuno Ami. I haven't gotten to class yet, but I shall be there first thing tomorrow."

Girl re-adjusted the box, a polite gentleman would've offered to take that box from her, unfortunately for her, he wasn't the type. Why he barely even thought of taking such an action, just seeing the whole movement as a normal human repositioning for communication focus. It was her things, why should he have to help her move them at all? So as a the man he is, Did not offer help what-so-ever. "Well, that sounds like a pain, having to move all that furniture. Where's your Roomie Buddies? I don't see any allies out here to help, funny no heroes either." He finished up about half the ice-cream fighting with the drippings by this point.
She mentioned about the help, but not sure any time or date. He gave a slight head tilt, "Should've made better scheduling, they Might just wait till you're done. Probably watching right now. Girlie, you're just too nice." He made a couple of ice-cream sucking, as she spoke again about not yet going to class and first thing tomorrow. Oh good, his statistical chance of a guess was correct, good to know. Hasn't missed out on new interesting students just quite yet. "First thing, eh? I guess we'll both be in the same class then. Nice to Meet'ya, I'm Mason!" He pulled the right hand out of his pocket, not bother to swap the ice-cream to it, just straight up right hand to a handshake. Impatiently waiting for her to free her hands while enjoying the last bite of his ice-cream looking a little too happy about the situation.He even went so far as to bring into a little small hum, swinging on his feet.
Ami wasn't exactly the strongest, even in her small circle of friends. She was fit enough to do basic running and lifting for physical education classes, but she was not going to be compteting in the Olympics. So she needed both hands to keep hold of the box. He seemed to be attempting to drive on her nerves with the constant mention of her friends not being there to help her. Shrugging it off she walked towards the door. She offered a smile in substitution of the hand shake though. "Usagi and the others are most likely still in Azabu-Juban."
He might have a point about her being too nice. Stepping in, she turned to the left, still easily in sight of Mason as she sat the box down on the counter. "The ten of us all have our own duties, responsabilities, and strengths to help everyone out. I may not be the most powerful, but organization is one of my strong suits, so if I can get everything in order before they arrive, the better all of us will be. Makoto will probably handle the cooking. Haruka is an excellent driver. Michiru has excellent financial wits. Minako could always lift our spirits. Rei has always been the spirit of our team." Part of her had a small laugh she held back. She wasn't normally one for wordplay, but when it comes naturally... Rini, Setsuna, and Hotaru has their own things as well, but that wasn't really information for the public.

He watched her movements habitually as she fidgeted her fingers, shrugging the conversation away, and eventually just giving an almost tired annoyed smile in his direction. He couldn't help but Beam even happily, making it clear cut he did not give a care at all. He listened as she went on about her friends, and where they were located. Maybe he could go and mess with them as well? Perhaps even start a whole out war between the friends, and just watch as they tore each other up. Why, maybe he could gain their trust, so none will be the wiser that he helped encourage their fights. It'd an amusing story to tell, that's what everyone lives for right? A reason to Live for.
She stepped into the house, he just walked on in without an invitation almost viewing the house as his as well, what's property a bunch of lies that's what. Course' he wasn't exactly all the way there in normal human standards, but she certainly didn't tell him NOT to enter and follow. It's only Respectful to follow the person and listen as they gave free intel and just explaining All about their friends how they all work as a team, and who does what chore! Such a Generous New Girl, placing all of her wits to organization self-sacrificing her time and her small strength for others.
A thought occurred to him, maybe it WOULD be in his best benefit to help this girl. After all if they all end up joining the academy, they'll each become great Patreon! Why helping his business grow, and be of Great entertainment for himself. This thought granted a new demeanor, "Well... Since you're so great at being organized and setting homes for others. How About I be your muscle? You tell me where to put everything? Then We can be a Team too! Helping one Another?" Before she could tell him off and no, he picked up the box she just placed on the counter, a big questionable smile on his face. "So! Where does this go! Team-mate!"
Ami didn't notice at first that Mason had followed her inside, But when she turned to go get the next box, he was suddenly there next to the box she just brought in. Most people with a decent understanding of English, a normal temperament, and probably enough time around such a chaotic being would tell him exactly where to put everything. But this was Ami. She seemed to already realize getting rid of Mason was going to be impossible, especially after he tried to shake her hand while it was loaded with breakable plates. So why not accept the help? "That would be helpful. I can order us some pizza then. That's all dishes. Please set them in the cupboard under the bar counter near the corner."
The bar was parallel to the wall of the door. The counter went basically from the fridge next to the door, along the wall, up the adjacent wall, and out to make a bar forming a L shape at the end creating a nearly complete circle kitchen. Inside the boxes were twelve sets of plate (serving, accesory, and saucers) mugs, glasses, silverware, an a single set of cooking utensils. The knife block had cherry wood handles and was set in cherry wood. With her previous offer, she walked over to the opposing wall under the stairs and picked up one of those old 90's era brick cell phones that was about as large as a human's head with a antenna to reach orbit. "Is there any toppings you perfer?"

She was going to feed him! This sounded like an amazing bonus to his ultimate goals! Paid in Food, he just ate ice-cream and still could not help the thought of free food bringing back the need to being fed. He soon got to work, picking up boxes began unboxing them one by one, focusing on the task of placing them over into this one specific designated area. The glassware wasn't too terribly interesting, but it did help him gain some points of human partnership. Almost done with the third box, a clatter of dishes followed with a A large question that sounded further into the house. Topings? He got to Pick the Topings TOO! This was glorious! Why... He could just ruin her experience even more!
He finished up the third box he walked up to where he believed the voice's owner was located at, admiring the house.. Mapping it all to memory, thinking of potential future areas to plan situations that cause worst friendship break-ups one could manage. He did wander, would the house allow one to hear another from across it? Probably not, but one could Hope! He walked up a little too happy, a quick hop into his step, "Why.. Salami and Anchovies, of course'! With just a sprinkle of Banana peppers!" He paused with a smile, leaning on the wall. Before a sudden thought to make this even worst, "No, wait. How about Spinach and Suasage?" He paused letting her think the option over, knowing she may prefer that even more, before continuing.. In a rather mind teasing manner. "One Side for you, One side For me." His hands gave a slight grabbing flair in a rather utmost over the top dramatic way, before suddenly walking away to continue his work. An itch in his shoulder Hoping, Praying, she'd bite and stop him.
Fortunatly, Ami wasn't too far away when Mason found her. She heard his topping choices and just wrote them down. "Both sound good." She made the call and held the brick up to her head, looking over the toppings as she waited. She was a bit confused at the grabby hands motion, but just went along with it. Maybe it was a new American fad. "Hi yes, I would like to order a Large Pizza please. On one side, Salami, anchovies, and light Banana Peppers, and on the other side Spinach and Sausage. And can I get a side of pickles as well....Dill Please." She went about finishing up the order, giving her address and hearing the total. After setting down her phone, she walked back into the kitchen and smiled. "They said about 15 minutes since they aren't too busy."
After she saw him finishing up the lat of the dishes she slipped back into her slippers. "I'll go get the next few boxes. I really appreciate your help Mason." She gave him the absolute sweetest, nearly Disney Princess, smile just before stepping out the door. She had the VHS tapes that could go in the living room. She also had quite a few boxes of linen that needed to go into their respective rooms. By herself, yes it would have taken a month, but that was mainly because she would take forever making sure everything was in an orderly place and would tire herself out before too long. But with a bit of 'muscle', she might be able to finish it this week.

It wasn't as he hoped, she didn't bite. Her voice echoed across the rooms, as she ordered the pizza with exactly as he requested, how disappointing. When she had about finished giving out details so the delivery could find them, he focused on gathering more boxes and placing them away. He placed his focus on the cabinets, the details of the house, looking for anything wrong or broken. Just finished emptying one box, breaking it down so it'd be flat, she walked in smiling a little.. Too happily, as if she knew the deep dark disappointment in his heart that she didn't come and assault him. Goody two-shoes academy students, why must they always be so damn nice. So the food be here in 15 Minutes? 15 Whole minutes? Lame. He didn't want to wait that long. Whatever he was hungry now... and she was paying. He gave a nonchalant shrug, before returning to work.
Finishing the very last box, as she called out about getting the next two boxes.. And an appreciation thank you, yuck... Look at the end goal, look at the end goal. Friends, all the People.. More people the more problems created. The more assets gained, With more assets, meant Even More entertainment for the long run. A smile that actually looked genuine and thought out crossed his face, "Okay I'll be in here finishing the last three dishes. " His fingers fiddled with the box edge annoyed.
After just ten minutes, the pizza had arrived. Ami paid for it once it got here and walked inside to the bar style countertop, setting it down. “The pizza just arrived.” She would call out to Mason, where ever he was working at this point. While she awaited his return, Ami fished out two plates, two forks, and two knives, setting the placements just like they were having a family dinner. She even set out cups for the two liter of soda.
Opening the top of the box, she smiled as she caught the sent of the anchovies and sausage mixed together. None of the girls back home liked these toppings. Makoto was the only one who even tried anchovies. Taking one slice, she set it on her plate and pulled up the bar stool. “Itadakimasu.” She would say with clapped hands before picking up the fork and knife, and cutting into the end of the pizza slice.

He'd about emptied several boxes, very proud of his work, when her voice echoed through the tiny little house. PIZZA! A little excitement surged through him, as the smell drifted from pizza's origin over to his location, she'd probably paid for it and had opened it up. He finally reached it, just as she placed her plate down and sat on the bar-stool. Giving a small clap of hands smiling saying a small little.. "What's that?" He asked curiosity in his voice motioning to her movements and overall happy demeanor at the seafood. And just. Right, he gave a slight snicker, "What are you from Tokyo?" The question sounded more like a rude comment than an actual question... But still held that curiosity air of him possibly being wrong.
He made his way around her not bothering grabbing a plate, just sliding his hand under a piece and eating it straight out of the box. Cheese dripping down, and you could tell from his expression he was trying to get her to make a look of disgust at the rudeness and indescribable horrid etiquette.
Ami was a bit surprised when he asked what “That” was motioning to her small meal time prayer and then an accusation of being from Tokyo. She only returned a smile back as she used the fork to place the small piece of pizza she cut off into her mouth. After finishing the bite she looked to him. “Yes I am.” She saw the way he was eating his slice and her smile actually became a bit brighter. “I think you would like Usagi. You do so many of the things she does back home.
In the past, yes this would have upset her. She was rich back home and her mother definitely schooled her on ettiqutte and manners, but after years with Usagi, Mamoru, Makoto, and Minako, she learned to accept others for who they were, just as they accepted her. Yeah Usagi gave her a look the first time they went out to pizza for using a knife and fork, but it soon became an inside joke with everyone that she actually enjoyed from time to time.

She was from Tokyo? Of course' she was, why he was but always right. He gave a slight huff, though a small smirk crossed his face as she mentioned about her friend liking him due to eating style. "Is that so? This imaginary friend of yours? Correct? Hmm? Hmm? " He completely believed she was real, but completely wanted to get under this girl's skin.. And as much as he hated it, he was actually losing this battle with this girl. He almost was getting bored here and desired to leave.. After all he got the payment, why stick around?
