The Way You Make Me Feel [Haru]

Tawna while normally was a pretty lax individual regarding most others, not much getting under her skin around allies these days... but she had to admit, Solomon was able to slightly unnerve her. The Meicoomon awkwardly rubbed the back of her head, her vision directed away from the rather miffed Monodramon.

If there was one thing that could miff Haru, it was the way that Ayumi was acting... Its just that that... It reminded too much of herself in the past. Haru was going to have none of this. The girl's face took on a stoic, but caring look as she took Ayumi's hand. "Don't say those ugly things... You are wrong. You are legit one of the smartest people I've ever known! There is nothing freaky or abnormal about you... and if there is, than who cares? That doesn't change my opinion of you!" the girl spoke with a fierce, but tender fire in her eyes...

"Normal is subjective." Tawna idly spoke, keeping a bit of a distance away from the pair of humans... and irritated Monodramon.

Haru seemed to pause as she struggled to figure out what else to say... There was too much she wanted to tell Ayumi. She wanted to let her know everything was okay, and that no one here would judge her. She was starting to understand why Ayumi was perhaps undergoing this revelation... but that wasn't anything to worry about. She was the last person to judge perhaps what genders someone like. "I-I... I just want to tell you, its okay... There is nothing wrong about you. It doesn't change that you're one of the coolest people in the world to me."

Haru could tell that Ayumi was really needing time to think about all of this... With well, good reason she supposed. It seemed like Ayumi was undergoing a revelation of a sort here, and while Haru wanted to help them; this was probably something better left for Ayumi to dwell upon rather than trying to force the issue. "Its okay to be confused, Ayumi... I mean, look at me; my whole life is confusing! Like Solomon said, its okay to take your time..." the girl softly spoke, smiling warmly as she gently placed an arm around their shoulders. "How about... we go get you something to eat or drink? Maybe something light for your stomach? It might help."

Provided Ayumi was willing to move, Haru was happy to escort them out of the lab with Solomon's help, Tawna tailing somewhat behind wanting to give everyone some room. Haru didn't have a whole lot on her mind in regards to herself, her attention was merely drawn to Ayumi and making sure the albino's balance was alright. A quick trip through the elevator would was all it would take to lead them to the kitchen, Haru helping to seat Ayumi down. "D-Do you want me to cook something for ya? I mean... I'm not THAT good, but I can make at least food."

One thing that did occupy Haru's mind was that Ayumi seemed... not entirely lucid. They seemed to be really struggling to figure out what to say or even think here, which did upset Haru. She didn't like her friends being upset in any capacity; it was just something within her nature that pained seeing people like this. She couldn't do too much else at the moment but try to be a shoulder to support Ayumi, but it didn't mean she had to like it. She smiled seeing Solomon so willing to cooperate, giving the violet dragon a nod. "Thank you! When I or Naoko were ever down, my mom always would make like pancakes for us... How do you like them, Ayumi?" the girl thanked the Monodramon as she addressed back to the contemplative albino, flashing a supportive smile.

Tawna had jumped into another nearby chair, their eyes widened with excitement as their fur fluffed up more than normal. "Make something with chocolate! A-And blueberries!" the Meicoomon somewhat excitably spoke as she banged at the table somewhat childishly with her paws... a rare moment where Tawna was not a complete stick in the mud. Food just was one of those things that got her riled up.

"Long as you don't go asking for some bleach added in or something... We have to make this edible for humans too ya know?" the girl somewhat snarkily spoke as she began to dig in the kitchen cabinets... pulling out various ingredients such as flour, baking powder, and of course sugar. "Solomon? Can you measure like six cups of flour for me?" the girl asked as she handed Solomon a measuring cup from one of the cabinets, soon moving to the fridge...

Haru was not going to hide that she could tell this was not very easy for Ayumi... It was clear to her that they were experiencing a lot of emotions, but she wanted to make sure they knew they had people who cares about them. She smiled as Solomon brought over some ingredients for her, just enough that she'd be able to work with! "Thank you Solomon... I promise this won't take too long, so how about you go comfort Ayumi?" she sweetly spoke, getting to work with assembling everything.

As Haru worked on trying to get the initial batter made, Tawna somewhat boredly gazed at her surroundings... though soon back to Ayumi. She didn't really get why the pale albino seemed to react so adversely by these romantic shenanigans... What was so big a deal about they realizing they like girls? Gender wasn't really something Tawna considered much frankly, so it was a confusing concept overall. "... Hey. I'm... kinda curious. Is there something wrong with girls liking girls among you humans?" the feline curiously asked, hoping least Ayumi would at least snap back to reality somewhat.

... Humans were weird. With how close she was to Haru and the Field Club, she thought she was finally getting a hang of knowing how they work. It seemed like a harmless question than, but that immediately set off Ayumi into hysterics once again... and Solomon was not happy.

Ouch... That was a damn look that could kill.

Well... better to be honest, right? Ayumi really seemed like they were needing a lot of help, and hey she couldn't be faulted for trying... right? Its what Haru would have wanted too after all. "I just asked if there was anything wrong with human girls liking girls... Cause honestly, I don't see why thats an issue." the feline spoke, she awkwardly gazing back to Ayumi... before offering one of her scarf-like tendrils to the girl to try to help clean up those tears. "... Miss Ayumi? Love is just kinda something that happens, doesn't it? Its... just when you find like someone you can talk to and relate in a way that you feel like you could open your heart out to them." the Meicoomon spoke, trying to kinda parrot some of the feelings she felt with Mikemon a while back... it probably was the same, right? Their relationship with K was... very close. Maybe just as much as her own with Haru?

Actually... that was a good analogy. "Listen. When I've Biomerged with Haru, I share everything with her... Feelings, memories. It might not be exactly like the love that I believe we are talking about, but we're very different people... Yet I know Haru trusts me fully, even knowing just who I am and what I have done. She loves everyone, and I admit... I sometimes don't grasp how she can extend that love to so many." she quietly spoke... remembering that momentous first time they Biomerged... a memory she was likely to never forget. It was the first time she felt like she truly was alive. "I'm just saying... I don't think a gender should get in the way of whether you can or cannot like like someone."

Tawna managed to breathe easier now that Solomon was not glaring daggers at her now. Fortunately, their words it seemed managed to reach Ayumi at least; they calming down silently. "Take your time. Go with what your heart tells you." Tawna softly spoke as she sat back in her chair... giving the pale woman time to themself.

Several minutes later, a delicious smell could begin to waft in the air... and with a couple more, Haru finally came back in with a huge tray of flapjacks with what looked like chocolate chips baked in... more than enough to feed a family! "Give me another sec! I'll get some whipped cream and syrup, plus some plates! Anyone want milk?" the gogglehead cheerfully asked, though noticed Ayumi's rather... solemn state. "... Are you feeling a lil' better Ayumi-kun?"

Haru was a patient girl with her friends... She could tell poor Ayumi was struggling to figure this all out, but she wouldn't rush them. "No, I getcha Yumi. It might be a little daunting, but I know you'll be fine. We all have questions we're trying to answer too, so its not weird to not know something." Haru softly assured the short albino as she made Ayumi and Solomon a plate... And of course, one for Tawna too. A stack of jacks that were half as big as the feline... How did something so small have such an appetite? "Here ya go ya bum. Just remember this is your dessert today."

Tawna was already in the middle of decorating her food with as much whipped cream as she could feasibly use to cover the breakfast items. "Milk?" they asked as they gazed at their tamer.

"C'mon, you got two feet! Go use them! Bring some cups and the jug too." Haru scolded the cat's laziness, earning them a slight groan from Tawna as they scrambled to the kitchen. As she settled down in a chair by Ayumi, the gogglehead gave the girl a warm smile... placing a hand by theirs. "Maybe... Do you want me to maybe kinda share my own feelings about well... I guess what I think about the whole girl love thing? Maybe it'd help you understand things a little better? I want you to feel better Ayumi."
