Prima| (Feral Aizawa)

hide (1)

Midnight and "bun fights" (old British jab for family get to gethers but house parties too) how she loves to throw them. Shota is just the opposite but they have known each other since high school. The upside, his friend Hizashi is not here for the party. Aizawa loves his best friend but the noise level gets to Shota.

Eraser is standing in Nemuri's large manor, a decent drive from Mustafu. The dress code is just under "full monkey suit". Shota is thankful since he hated ties. His scarf can be wrapped loosely and he chose it. Ties had knots called half-Windsors and full Windsors then pulled high around the throat. A fancy hangman's noose.

For whatever reason, Shota decides to have a pineapple mimosa to drink. His eyes rove over the guests. Most he recognizes as pro heroes and a few high up people that are friends. He knows the heroes and has been introduced to the others. Then his golden(seen manga with that color) eyes come to rest on a large and boisterous man. Next to him is a tall and lanky fellow smiling. The third is harder to find but the color of her dress is what catches his eye.

The woman has thick and long brown hair swept up but some stands have escaped. Her red crushed velvet dress and see through lace coat goes to her ankles, and is modest for a party at Midnight's. The 'beauty" is trying to listen to the loud older man but Shota can see her eyes rolling and it's constant. This woman is definitely not finding this guest to her liking. She even pulls her bottom lip with her teeth. Finally one component of his big Safari story hits a sour note and she makes a scoffing sound.

The skinny man turns to the unhappy listener, "What does seem to be the issue...Lana?"

"I disagree with the fact that Mr. Laramee just said but it is his experience hunting, even if some facts are not quite right," the young woman, whose first name is Lana.

"If you are quite finished Miss Turner. You were not there so you don't know the facts."

Lana raises her nose up, "Of course what would I know. I'm just a marine biologist...excuse while I get another drink."

The wildlife biologist heads to the drink bar, " Hello, may I have a pineapple mimosa please?"

The young man does a slight bow and opens a fresh bottle of champagne. Lana hears, even over the noise of the party that someone is approaching. This is not what she was wanting. This is not her kind of get together. A Hawaiian pig roast is more her style. So Lana decides to give the person a fright to send them on their way. She turns swiftly to face the party guest.

"Evening, I am marine biologist Leilana Turner and who might you be? As she boldly extends her right hand. She knows that handshaking is not something you really do in Japan. The man doesn't skip a beat and gives a firm shake, matching hers then applies just a slight bit more.

"Shota Aizawa, Miss Turner."

"Hmm, you have been one of Nemuri's close friends since high school." Lana turns to see if her mimosa is done. It is so she picks it up. "I'm sorry but I don't really know much about you except she calls you eraserhead and that you are an underground pro hero. You teach at UA high and your an..."

"I'm a what? What has Midnight been telling you about me?" Shota let his face stay dead serious as he has her squirming. He knows exactly what Midnight said he was...an ass.

" You're an Abalone Mr. Aizawa," Lana smiles back. She is feeling rather smug.

"I don't quite follow the reference," Shota pushes.

"Oh well the Abalone shell reminds me a bit of a sleeping bag. The shape and function doesn't go anywhere and seals up tight,"Lana smiles politely then takes a sip of her drink. 'Gotcha Eraser!' she thinks.

Aizawa turns to the bartender. "I will have what the lady is having."

Then the tired underground hero turns back to Lana. He's going to let her think she has fooled him then bring the conversation around once more. He is more than a little curious as to her modesty. The dress has a scoop front and capped short sleeves. The length is to her ankle with a slit on the right side that stops just above the knee. The last is the square heeled boots that look like she stole them from Laura Croft.

"You said you study marine animals, which ones?" Shota asks and then grabs his mimosa.

"Whales are my first with a minor in dolphins. Whales are highly intelligent. Even in this day and age are misunderstood. Especially..." Then Lana pulls her bottom lip into her teeth.

"Especially what? The methods that Japan does to study whales and porpoises?" Shota gets why she stops. "I know that the meat is not used much anymore but whale hunting is a symbol of pride to Japan. Mr. Laramie does big game hunting. Is that any different? He's bragging about..."

"Nemuri is right. You are an ass..." Lana sets her mimosa down. "Aloha ahiahi (good night in Hawaiian) Mr. Aizawa."

Shota watches the woman literally 'blow' past him as the air shifts. 'Good job Shota...using logic was not a good choice in this topic but she did confess to the ass part of Midnight and tell her that about him.'

Midnight ducks her head in, "Talking with Lana?"

"No, being an ass as you like to tell her..." Shota finishes his drink.

"Eraser what did you say to her?" Nemuri steps in. "You didn't upset her too much did you?"

"Aah got on the subject of whales since she studies them. Then I went logical which led me to misunderstood Japan whaling..."

"Shota Aizawa! You did not!" Nemuri frowns. "She's only here for 10 days and I don't want to spend two of those trying to find her!"

Shota tilts his head, "Lost her for two days?"

"I didn't lose her. I couldn't find her. When she doesn't want to be found you don't find her. She lives with Polynesian tribes. The Maori happen to like her a lot, so much she has a back and matching upper sleeve tattoos of an Orca..."

Aizawa smirks, "But she hasn't met me. I CAN find her."

Nemuri laughs, "Not even you, the great silent underground hero Eraserhead will find Lana, if she doesn't want to be found. You are so out of her league. The only reason she would allow you to catch her is if you appeal to her primal side to play. Brat tamer doesn't qualify you for the rough stuff."

"Want to bet on it Midnight? Put your mouth where your money is?" Shota smirks. "I have too many vacation days according to Nezu. I can take a couple off right now."

"Shota Aizawa you dirty dog!" Midnight laughs. "Okay, it's a deal."

"I do so love cats but I believe thinking like a sly okami (wolf) will serve me better."

"Interesting Shota, you might be right. Lana always says to succeed, sometimes you ask for the animals to guide you," Nemuri replies thoughtfully. "Did you come with anyone?"

"No my car is in front of your garage," Shota tells her. "Is that a problem?"

MIdnight winks, "Yeah she will notice the unfamiliar car in the driveway."

Shota shrugs his shoulders. "Take my car in the morning. You can say I stayed because I drank a little too much. You know being an 'ass' thing."

"Okay! Did she come right and say it?"

Eraser stone faces his female friend, "She said an Abalone. Then used the guise of my sleeping bag."

"Oh! That's a good one! Lana can be such the little shit can't she?" Midnight snickers.

"Hmm, not to me. I'll get her docile in my lap and purring like a kitten..." Shota states as if this is a fact. It's just going to happen, period. Besides Lana knows the foliage but he has a capture weapon and she has to run occasionally in open parts.

"Good night Shota and good hunting."

Night Nemuri..."
