Harry Leferts
Slowly waking up on the first day of his vacation, Harry blinked as he felt a weight on his arm and turned his head slightly to see that Hoppou had snuck into his room at some time during the night and was now cuddled up to his side. A smile grew on his face as she breathed in and out softly before she shifted a bit. That was when he heard the door open to see Nagato in the doorway peeking in with a smile which he returned as he whispered so he wouldn't wake his little sister. "Morning, Mum."
Nodding, Nagato only crossed her arms as she took in the sight before her. "Good morning, Harry." At the look Harry gave Hoppou, Nagato's smile grew a touch more. "She really missed you."
Just nodding, Harry's eyes softened. "I missed her too." Then he furrowed his eyebrows. "When did she...?"
With a hum, his adopted mother shook her head. "She got out of her bedroom about twenty minutes after you went to sleep and snuck in." She then glanced at her watch that Harry had gotten for her and nodded. "It's about ten in the morning if you were wondering. So if you want to show your friends around..."
Harry only nodded at that. "I'll be up in a few minutes." Once she had closed the door, Harry reached up with one hand and began to stroke Hoppou's hair. "Hoppou... I need to get up."
In reply, she only held on tighter and snuggled in. "No. Hoppou no want to get up."
Sighing in amusement, Harry shook his head and continued to stroke her hair. "Hoppou, I really need to get up." His expression then turned mischievous. "Besides... if I don't get up, how ever am I going to give my little sister some treats that I had some older years pick up for me?"
A moment went by, and then Hoppou opened her eyes and looked up at him. "Big Brother got Hoppou some treats?" At his nod, she frowned and seemed to consider it before she crashed back onto him. "Hoppou no care, Hoppou just wants Big Brother."
That caused Harry to roll his eyes and snort a bit, though he was pretty happy. 'Oh for...'
It was about twenty minutes later when Nagato got up to go to Harry's room when the door opened. Then she had to hold out snickers as Harry walked out. "Well now, about time you got up."
Giving her a look, Harry shrugged. "Had a bit of a problem."
Nagato then looked down at his leg where Hoppou was holding on like a limpet before she bit her lip to keep from laughing. "I can see..." Then she raised her eyebrow at him. "And get some normal breakfast into you and Hoppou before you give her any treats."
Looking down, Harry had to hold back laughter as Hoppou gave a pout at that. "Not a problem, Mum. I'll just head over and wake up Ron and the others. We'll get something to eat then I'll show them around."
With a nod, Nagato stood up. "Sounds like a plan." Striding over, she enveloped him in a hug. "I'm glad to see you home though, Harry."
Hugging her back, Harry nodded. "It's good to be back."
As he pulled away, he noted Rose there watching with a happy expression before he walked over and hugged her, the tsukumogami blushing before she hugged back. "Welcome home, Master." When he pulled away, Rose gave a short nod. "Now then, I'll make you a lovely cup of tea... do you know what your friends like?"
Once he told her, Rose busied herself with making said drinks as Harry walked out the door and down the hallway before knocking. The whole way, he had a giggling Abyssal glomping his leg who he looked down at in amusement. "Are you going to be doing this all day, Hoppou?"
She just blinked at him and then quickly nodded which made him shake his head before the door opened to reveal a dishevelled Percy. "Harry?" Looking down, his eyes widened slightly at the sight of the two red eyes staring back up at him. "And, um... Hoppou?"
Hoppou just nodded before snuggling back into Harry's leg. Seeing the raised eyebrow, Harry gave the older teen a shrug. "Hoppou missed me."
There was an amused expression on Percy's face as he nodded. "I see..." With another glance downwards, he shook his head. "Rather reminds me of how Ginny, our sister, reacted to when Bill came home from his two years of training as a Curse Breaker. He walked around for a month with her holding on."
Laughing, Harry shook his head. "No doubt."
As he smirked a bit, Percy held up one finger. "Just give us a moment."
When Harry nodded, the eldest Weasley there ducked back into the room and ten minutes later, the other three were staggering out with sleepy expressions. Before anyone could say anything though, Rose's voice rang out. "The tea's ready, Master!"
It was almost as one that all four Weasleys turned and blinked at the sight of Rose there balancing a tray of tea and tilting her head with a smile. Then George turned to Harry and pointed toward her. "Uh... Master?"
Before Harry could answer though, Rose nodded. "Yes, because Master owns me."
The sound of flesh meeting flesh could be heard as Harry groaned. "Guys, this is Rose, she's the tsukumogami of the tea set that I own.:
Slowly, Ron nodded as he snapped his fingers. "Oh, yeah... you told us about her." He then turned toward her and gave a nod. "Uh, hi, I'm Ron Weasley."
All the tsukumogami did was nod as she shook the hand that was offered to her. "I'm Rose Potter, and it's a pleasure to meet one of Master's friends, let alone four!"
Utterly confused, the others also shook her hand before they decided to just have a drink of the offered tea with Fred looking down at it in surprise. "It's exactly how I like it, how did you...?"
Rose just winked at him. "It's a secret, I'm afraid." Once they were done and given her back the empty cups, she gave a small bow. "I'll see you all later, after all I have duties of my own to attend to though I do ever look forward to chatting with you all once we have some time."
Just watching her leave, Percy turned toward Harry with a frown. "A... tsukumogami?"
Sighing, Harry nodded. "In Japanese legend, any object that is around for more then a hundred years can gain a soul. Rose is one example of that though her true form is that of a silver tea set that has been passed down through my family for years."
Nodding, Percy just frowned. "I... see..."
However, a few moments later they followed Harry out of the Battleship Dorms, though Harry and Hoppou took a moment to say goodbye to their mother. As they were walking along the sidewalk on their way to the mess hall though, they heard beeping and turned as a small, car-like object pulled up. When it came to a stop and the window rolled down, Harry had to blink. "Inazuma-Chan?"
A bright smile just split Inazuma's face as she nodded. "Hwawawawa! Harry-Chan! When did you get back?"
Chuckling, Harry walked up and gave Inazuma a one armed hug as she did the same. "Late last night actually." Then he pulled back and took in what she was in with a bemused expression. "And what's this? I didn't know that you could get a license..."
There was a proud expression on her face, Inazuma patted the door. "I don't need one for this, Nanodesu. It's actually an enclosed electric bicycle."
Eyebrows raising, Harry looked around inside. "That is a bicycle? Really?" At her nod, he shook his head. "That's so cool... Where are you going?"
Inazuma chuckled a bit and shook her head. "Actually, I'm heading home. I was picking up some food for Kaa-Chan when I spotted you." Then she glanced toward the Weasleys and gave them a smile. "Hello!"
Giving a hesitant wave, Ron glanced to Harry who nodded. "Inazuma-Chan, let me introduce my some of my friends from Hogwarts, Ron Weasley, Fred Weasley, George Weasley, and Percy Weasley."
The Destroyer did her best to give them a small bow from inside her vehicle. "I'm the Japanese Destroyer, Inazuma. Though I'm also known as Ami Matsuda, I mostly go by Inazuma."
Almost as one, the older Weasleys blinked. "Ami Matsuda?"
For their parts, Harry and Inazuma were confused and shared a look before the black haired boy cleared his throat. "You know about Natural Born shipgirls... right?" At their utterly confused expressions, Harry rubbed the back of his head. "Whoo boy..."
