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?

Hmm… [ She looks back over at the keychains ] I wanted to get her something else we could match with, like how you and I have the haros now but…

[ You’ve been distracting her >:(

Her eyes catch something though and with a little “ah” she reaches out for a keychain of My Melody. ]

Look— [ She holds it up next to her face ] Doesn’t this character kinda look like me?

[ Because of course she’s wearing her flower hairpin still. ]

I wouldn't say "kinda". I would say "exactly".

[The resemblance....it's uncanny.]

If you're looking for something to match, I think that'd be perfect.

[ She seems satisfied with this before looking again. ]

There’s a character they always pair up with this one… oh, there she is.

[ She picks up a Kuromi one and looks at them both side by side in her hands before nodding and looking back at Varian. ]

I think… I’ll go with these then.

Those are perfect. I think she'll really like hers.

[And probably keep it on her person literally always from that moment on, if he knows Farrah.

With the items procured, Varian steps aside a bit so Rina can get past him in the aisle so they can make their way back to the front.]

Hey- rememeber how you asked me earlier if I was hungry? I couldn't help but notice they were selling something up front here...

Hm? You mean the cafe? [ She looks off in the direction of it ]

Did you want to try the pancakes?

Edited (REALIZED I MISREAD A LITTLE) 2021-08-13 22:33 (UTC)

Yeah! Are you up for it?

[Pancakes aren't like...a lunch or dinner kind of food, but neither of them had breakfast anyway, did they? It's fine.]

[ It’s okay, they need a snack and pancake is a weird translation of what they actually are anyway 👀 ]

Sure!

[ She looks over at the cafe a little more. Hmmm… ]

Did you want to try them with the ice cream?

They come with ice cream?

[Will Japan never cease to amaze...]

Uh, yeah, that sounds like the only way to have them.

[He's looking over the selections on display as well. He's been here long enough to get a pretty decent scale of how much is too much or how much is cheap when it comes to yen, so when he sees that they're selling 20 individual ones in a box for 800 yen, he whistles under his breath.]

That's really cheap, isn't it?

[ She looks over at them with him and nods. ]

Mm, it’s pretty cheap. Just getting one with ice cream is 280 yen. Even the donuts and other stuff don’t cost much.

[ Because of course there’s also donuts that look like kitty heads and mochi that looks like the characters. ]

Thankfully most street food is pretty cheap unless you’re getting something really fancy. So whatever you want we can get no problem.

Man. I almost don't know what I want...

[He leans in a little closer to the glass. The donuts look great too, but that rings more as dessert tthan anything else. ...well, as if this isn't ALL dessert.]

Maybe one of the pancakes with ice cream? I like that green flavor...uh. Tea...?

Green tea, yeah.

[ She leans in closer as well, but this time to look at the signs with the ice cream options. ]

I think I want… to try the one that’s a swirl of the green tea and milk flavours. With one of the chocolate filled pancakes.

[ I hate that in looking this place up some more I discovered it’s “milk flavour” and not “vanilla”. ]

[MILK FLAVOR]

I want that one too. That sounds really good right now.

[Chocolate filled and everything? Okay maybe this IS a dessert after all, but you're not going to catch him complaining.]

Kinda cute how they're all shaped like the cat mascot.

[ Rina goes up and orders their ice cream for them, while also grabbing one of those packs of 20 to snack on later at home. As she’s paying she replies: ]

You mean Hello Kitty-chan? She’s world famous you know.

[ She takes the box and adds it to her bag… probably going to have to put all this in Varian’s backpack later, huh. ]

Pretty much everyone in this world knows who she is - her face is everywhere.

[She's also NOT A CAT APPARENTLY I'm so mad]

Really? She's like..a cartoon, right? Like Spongebob, only not real.

[Spongebob isn't- never mind.]

[ At that she stops and stares at him long and hard with her ever unchanging face.

…… ]

She could be real in some universe. Like Spongebob-kun.

[ IS THERE A HELLO KITTY MUSICAL ]

[......]

I don't know if I'm worried or not by the fact that you could be right about that.

[ The ice cream is ready and she takes them both, but even as when’s handing Varian his, she seems to be deep in thought. Then suddenly, as if this only occurred to her just now: ]

There could be a universe where Sonic is real.

[ Holy SHIT. ]

[...bless him, he tries very hard not to. But that expression is looking very deadpan right now.]

There...could be.

I guess.

[ She watches his reaction for a moment. ]

Don’t worry though—

[ She takes a step closer and lifts herself up enough on her heels to kiss his cheek. ]

Even if there is I still like you way more.

[ and starts walking away with her ice cream in hand. ]

[AH............

She's already walking off before he can reply. He just ends up lagging behind because she kissed HIM, and you know what maybe he's starting to understand what she meant now by revenge-]

W...wait up-!

[He's gothis ice cream as well but honestly he's liable to let it melt all over his hand if she keeps that up.]

[ revenge IS sweet ]

Rina-chan Board says… “ufufufu”.

[ …but okay fine, she’ll stop and wait for him to catch up. ]

Will eating outside be okay?

[ It’s really nice out and she’d like to sit and look out at the bay some more. ]

[HUFF. You win this time, Rina-chan...Varian's of course not going to argue that, because eating out does sound like a good idea.]

I'm fine with that. I'm surprised, it's actually not too crowded out here right now...I'm so used to there being just a million people walking on the street here.

That’s probably because most people are at work… or still at school.

[ She has a “get out of school free” card for a while to “recover” considering how she went missing for almost two months. ]

But this area is also a lot bigger and spaced out than other parts of Tokyo so people don’t have to crowd as much.

The train will get really bad in a few hours though…

[A school that big damn well better let her get out free for a while-]

You know, you say that like the train wasn't bad before...

[Varian has to imagine that a crowd to Rina must seem like a veritable sea of people to Varian.]
