[ There's a low hum in understanding. He props his elbow on the table and rests his chin on his hand as he looks at her. ]

So that America guy wasn't exaggerating?

[hoasen]

[She sighs, long and slow.]

He wasn't, but he certainly made us sound...hm... [She wasn't the only one who suffered what America said, but she crosses her arms over her chest in any case.

Not that Samatoki hasn't seen them anymore, but now she wonders how he feels!]

[coasts]

Hm?

[ Guess who doesn't get it... And why she's doing that. . .

???? ]

[hoasen]

[She's...getting nervous by his confusion.]

My...chest size.

[It's average, enough for him to grab, as he realised. Enough for her to slide a dick between, a not-repressed version would say. But for now...]

Anyway, what do you think about the food?

[coasts]

Oh. [ Oh. ] The guy's a dick. I don't get why he has to point that out?

[ HE'S STILL OFFENDED FOR HER. ]

It's not a big deal.

[ He grumbles as he finishes the water in his glass. ]

The food's good. Sorry - would've said somethin' about it sooner. [ A beat. ] Thanks for goin' outta your way to make these.

[hoasen]

......Yes, now everyone knows! [She puts her head into her hands for a minute.]

Thank you, though, for standing up for me. I appreciated it. [He's such a good guy? He's cute. Stop that.]

Anyway, I'm glad it is to your tastes. I enjoy cooking, so it's no issue, really. I did think that it was odd to launch into what we did without taking you out first.

[coasts]

[ Someone has a crush... It's not him. She likes him. At least, that's what he's thinking now??? ]

Are you asking me out? [ He's smiling a smug one, but this is truly her fault. ]

[hoasen]

[Samatoki, did you somehow manage to turn a Tinder date into a situation where she now crushes on him? She's totally oblivious to the level of crushing that he's determined she has for him.

However, she's still a foolish tsundere during these moments.]

W-well! I mean, it is the proper way and it must be seen through to the end! A lady must ensure that her partner is properly cared for.

[Though the truth is she really does think he's cute.]

[coasts]

The role ain't yours alone, but if you wanna go out sometime? Sure.

[ She's flipping out on him??? Calm down, Vietnam. ]

[hoasen]

[He's teasing, SHE'S CERTAIN.]

Then, where would you like to go!

[AHHHHHHH.]

[coasts]

You been here longer than me, right?

[ He at least thinks so. She seems to have a handle of her moonblessings, having an inkling on what might appear and what might not. ]

What's a good place for you?

[hoasen]

[She taps her lip, so at least she's calmed down thanks to the thoughts of food.

She sure did go around eating.]

Many places, I'm not sure what kind of places you like to go. Many places to eat, then we have movies, the theatre. There are places that entertain as well, games and such. [She's not suggesting the underground floor yet because it's dirty. Ish.]

[coasts]

I'll go wherever you'll take me. I'm in your hands.

[ In this sort of instance, Samatoki's open to a lot of things. He's receptive because it's not like what they're going to do is anything bad. Any other time, he'd probably shut certain ideas out just because he's a cranky ho. ]

[hoasen]

[Thinking about it, he was in her hands almost literally last time. Hmm.]

Alright! Let's see, since we're still getting to know each other, why don't we go to one of the shopping malls. It's one way of learning about each other, by looking around at what we like. And then we can go have a meal.

[Look...she knows that dates are either extravagant or lowkey, and she hasn't read up on this yet SHE HASN'T PLANNED AHEAD.]

[coasts]

Sure. Show me around.

[ That totally works for him! Samatoki's taking this in stride. It's all casual. It's all cool. ]

[hoasen]

Then, it's a date--[COUGHS.]

Anyway, when would you like to do this?

[Good thing he is taking in stride.]

[coasts]

[ ... He's going to need some time to prepare, too. ]

When're you free? S'not like I have a job yet or anythin'. I'm free whenever.

[hoasen]

[And so does she. So don't say today, don't say today--]

Anytime, I don't have work either at the moment. I guess I brought food over today so in the coming days?

[coasts]

[ He doesn't mind deciding if she doesn't want to. That's fine! ]

How's this weekend, then?

[hoasen]

[Teamwork! This is what it is.]

I'm available then, so that sounds wonderful. Let's start early. Not too early, in case you would like to sleep in. [She's an early riser herself.] A little bit before lunch?

[coasts]

You gotta tell me where you're stayin' so I know where to go.

[ He'll pick her up instead of just them meeting up somewhere. ]

[hoasen]

[She was going to ask him why, until she realises it was because he was going to pick her up.]

Oh! It's...wait.

[She takes out her notepad and pen, and quickly writes it down for him. Down to the floor and apartment number, of course.]

Here.

[coasts]

[ Great! He'll buy some flowers for her before visiting. It'll be nice. He'll prepare properly. Romance isn't his strong suit—definitely not—and he's not sure where this may lead, but it might be fun. It's not like he gets a chance like this where he's from. Priorities are different there.

With no territory battles, though... the hell is he to do? ]

I'll pick you up at 10:30. Should be enough time before lunch to go around.

[hoasen]

[Don't worry, she's the most practical person and so romance is a beautiful notion, but she's realistic to know it's not always possible. Everything he's planning will be a wonderful surprise to her. But also he's right. What are they meant to do here? It's almost like the world's weirdest vacation, and she has plenty of spare time.]

That sounds suitable, I will be ready by then. [EARLY RISER.]

[coasts]

[ Samatoki doesn't want a vacation.............. he needs to overthrow the government!!! 😑 He's even at a loss on what to do. He just walks around and tries to learn the ins and out of this place. There's no mission, no set goals, and that's annoying.

Riou's here, at least. It helps with him not knowing what to do, exactly. ]

Anythin' else you wanted to tell me?
