[ She looks at him as he says that and just… after a few seconds reaches out to take his hand again, giving it a gentle squeeze. ]

Well, she’s right to.

…She’s really amazing, huh? Princess Rapunzel.

[ In my heart of hearts I am choosing to believe the two of them already met because I need them to. ;_; ]

[THIS IS CANON NOW AND YOU ARE VALID.]

She is. I accidentally gave some of our friends a bad impression of her at first, but I think she'd understand, you know? She's just that type of person.

[ She nods. ] Mm, I’m sure she would. Especially since it’s not your fault an evil wizard tampered with your memories.

[ He wasn’t ACTUALLY a wizard— you know what never mind.

That guy was such a jerk.

[ Putting it lightly ]

[Rina, he can't not laugh when you put that face up.]

He was a jerk, wasn't he? You can't trust wizards.

[Of which he's NOT one.]

[ The elevator gets to the bottom and Rina is already walking out and heading in the direction of the store she wants. ]

Apparently. And here I used to think they were cool.

[ Good thing they still have SCIENCE ]

Well, fantasy, pretend ones still are. Just don't trust anyone who tells you seriously that they're one.

[Can't trust those shits as far as you can throw them. Of course, Varian knows better since...he knows magic IS a real thing, and wizards are probably legitimately real in some of their worlds, but shhh.]

[ She was about to say something, probably along the lines of pointing that technically from her perspective his world is still “fantasy” and how do we even know what’s pretend or real anymore— but then she sees the store she wanted. ]

Ah— there it is! This is the place I wanted to stop by.

[ That

Sure is a store

And it sure says “Hello Kitty Japan” in plain English

Does that answer any earlier questions you had or nah ]

......oh. Oh, wow. No wonder you said Farrah would like it...

[Is that a giant statue of a cat...actually a lot of cats, there's. There's clearly a theme here.]

[ A cat and also. An egg. The egg is important.

She lowers the board and lets go of his hand. ]

You can stay out here if you’d like. I won’t be long.

Edited 2021-08-12 03:59 (UTC)

[...Does he want to stay? He's actually kindof curius now that he's spotted the egg, fucking what-]

No, I...I'll go with you. I kinda want to just...look.

[He's already gotten a few tastes of Japan being Japan, but this is a whole new level of that.]

[ She stares at him for a few more seconds in surprise, before putting back upthe happy board and taking his hand again. ]

Okay!

[ The store isn’t as big as the Gundam store but it’s still pretty big and WAY more spacious. Despite the open space though all the walls are lined with as much character merchandise that they can fit. T-shirts, mugs, bags, plushies, beauty products and more, and of so many different characters and animals. Mostly of the cat, but also dogs, bunnies… and an entire section dedicated to the egg.

At some point Rina let go of his hand and started looking closer at the plushies, looking intently at some rabbit characters. ]

Farrah-chan really liked plushies while we were stuck in the school didn’t she…

[The egg is weirdly fascinating, if he's honest. He guesses you could put a cute face on anything and it'd be appealing, though. Like, he's literally carrying around a keychain of a robot orb with a face, so that's not a glass house he can throw stones in.

Varian follows along with Rina until they make it to the plushies, chuckling when she brings that up.]

Oh yeah. I got to a point where I just gave her all of mine that Ruddiger didn't claim first.

[ She picks up a rabbit And looks at it closely. One of the less represented characters here. ]

And she had that pet rabbit now too right? Mmm…

[ She holds it up to him ]

Do you think she’d like it? I know it’s really cutesy but…

[ Farrah said she liked her, and she’s cute and pink so— ]

Are you kidding? I think she'd love it.

[Varian props his fists up on his hips, nodding towards the rabbit in question.]

I think she'll especially love it because it came from you, though.

Really?

[ She looks back at the Bonbonribbon plushie before nodding and holding it close to her, deciding to go with it. ]

Okay, I’ll get this and something smaller then. [ She and Varian have matching keychains now so it’s only fair she have matching ones with Farrah too. ]

I just worry a little sometimes… with you it’s easy to know what you’d like because we have the same interests, but I feel a little less certain with Farrah-chan, so I want to be extra sure she’ll like it.

But… if you really think she’d especially like something because it came from me then… I suppose I should worry less.

[ She just wants to be a good girlfriend. To both of them >_< ]

[Aw, Rina...]

I think you know more about her than you realize. It's hard to think of things in the moment, but...so far, you haven't suggested anything I think she'd absolutely hate or anything. Which is kiiinda important.

You think so?

[ She pauses a moment to get her board up. ]

Hearing that makes me… really happy!

[ She’s walked over to a rack of keychains now, looking them over. ]

What do you think, by the way? Of a store like this.

Oh, me? Well it's, uh...

[Varian rocks back on his heels, looking around at all of the bright colors and cutesy mascots all over the place.]

I wouldn't call it exactly my taste? But it IS cute. So I can appreciate that.

I mean, I think I know a thing or two about cute things at this point.

[Said as he leans in to put an arm briefly around Rina, pulling her close to his side.]

I should know, I have one.

[ At suddenly being pulled in closer and hearing that, Rina’s face starts to turn red and she quickly puts the board back up after lowering it a little to look at the keychains ]

Ah…

Y-You going to… embarrass me… a little…

[ But she doesn’t mean that in a bad way. ]

[Sorry Rina, your boyfriend just cannot help but be absolutely insufferable. He'll only hold her near for a moment, just long enough for him to kiss the side of her head before he pulls away.]

A little? Clearly I'm not trying hard enough.

[Terrible.]

[ SCREAMS VARIAN THE STORE CLERK CAN SEE THEM!!!!

Her face feels even hotter as he kisses her and she keeps the board up to hide behind. ]

Awawawa…

[ And then she faces him with a more determined board >:( ]

I’m going to… get you back, you know!

[IT'S FINE WHAT ARE THEY GONNA DO, ARREST THEM FOR PDA-

Varian just laughs at that though, p utting his hands back on his heeps so he can lean forward into her space a little, a bit haughtier than before.]

Oh yeah? Should I be scared?

Mmhm, you should be! I’m going to get you real good, just wait!

[ And then YOU’LL be the one blushing and feeling embarrassed, fucker!!! ]

Oh no don't worry, I believe you! And I'll wait...I'm just curious to see what you might come up with.

[Heheheh]

...so! Did you find everything you wanted, you think?
