Help from Hidden Writers

Broken Mirrors and Hearts, Part 1

Requester: Bearlywrote, Prompt: Jorogumo and Cuddly are going to go on a date, but it is ruined by a prank played by Kagemi. The UC group find themselves having to fix the duo's relationship,  Notes: Cuddly belongs to the requester.

Kagemi had been an Ungaikyou for so long he had forgotten what it was like to be himself again. 

One of the few things he had forgotten was definitely how mischievous he could be. 

To be honest, Movien had explained this once to the others during a meeting, but it didn't match seeing the real thing with their own eyes for sure. 

They were shocked when they saw the extent of Kagemi's mischievousness at first, alright. 

But it couldn't have been a worst time to see it. 

Especially when it involved Bearly Cuddly. 

"A date with Cuddly?" Haruya repeated, blue eyes staring at his ex-minion as he, Haruya, Kagemi, and Movien sat in their living room, either drinking tea or reading a book only to be dragged away from their activity by Haruya's words. 

Rasen nodded, "Yeah, Ayame told me. Apparently she and Natsume are going to help her get ready, since she has completely no idea how to." 

"Huh, that's new," Movien remarked, looking up from his book that Reaper had borrowed him, Book Writing. "Jorogumo must be really happy." 

"She is," Rasen smiled. "She was sputtering and blushing and fussing for once in her life." 

"You sure that was our Jorogumo?" Haruya snickered slightly. "Cause that Jorogumo is a far cry from the one I had to deal with before." 

"Oh, believe me, I had my doubts as well," Rasen waved it off. "But then I saw it for myself and I was sold. She really was sputtering like mad." 

Kagemi hummed, "She's finally getting the happiness she deserves. I'm happy for her, to be frank."

"Same here," Movien nodded. "If there's anyone who deserves it, it's Jorogumo for sure. She's been through a lot." 

"No doubt about that," Haruya agreed. "Maybe we should help her out?" 

"That sounds nice!" Rasen's eyes lit up. "Maybe we can cook a romantic dinner for them!" 

"That's somewhat boring, don't you think?" Kagemi suddenly shot back. "I mean, Jorogumo's an analyst like Junko and Keisuke, and those two can get bored super easily. Maybe we should make it.... I don't know, interesting?" 

"And how do you propose we do that, Kagemi?" Haruya rose an eyebrow. 

Kagemi shrugged, "A prank, I guess?" 

"Absolutely no," Movien declined it immediately. "Pulling that on poor Jorogumo is just wrong!" 

"Yeah!" Rasen nodded vigorously. "She deserves this, doesn't she?! The least we can do is give her peace!" 

Haruya sighed, "I agree with them, Kagemi. Honestly, what's gotten into you?" 

Kagemi pouted, "Well, sorry for trying to make stuff interesting! It's just so boring around here!" 

"You can go hang out with the humans, if you want!" Haruya suggested. "There's Junko and Mukuro in the ice cream store, or Keisuke in the manga store downtown. Maybe even Natsume or Touma or Akinori!" 

"They're all so busy these days," Kagemi shot back. "Keisuke's working on Masks, Junko and Mukuro are talking about starting up a branch, Natsume and Ayame are helping Jorogumo, and Touma and Akinori are probably in the non-fictional world spending time with the LEs or the other SRS members." 

Rasen softly sighed, "Kagemi, just calm down-" 

"No, I can't calm down, Rasen," Kagemi got up, feeling a bit hurt hearing this from him. "Can't you listen to me for once? I won't pull off anything bad!" 

"But you're forgetting about Jorogumo's feelings! What if Cuddly feels angry after the prank?!" Rasen got up as well, fists tightly gripped. "What if he decides to break up with her?! Then Jorogumo will feel sad!" 

"Cuddly loves her! There is no way that would happen! Sheesh, why are you all like this?! I can't stand this anymore!" Kagemi glared at him before storming away, anger beating through his soul. 

Why won't you listen to me?! Geez!
