OPEN
[ Style ], but will follow a change if you want


[ With the bar damaged, and Tatara asleep, Anna has decided she ought to explore. Izumo was still trying to repair his precious baby of a building, and Mikoto had probably gone to nap. She left them a note, taped to the door, set on her favorite chair, and one on Tatara, just to be thorough, that she was looking around the bubble and had her starfish.

Which is why, if anyone is eating outside, they might find a small girl in frilly red and black cloths staring intently at their food. All the more intently if any of that food has red in it. All the different places people came from, there's sure to be food even Tatara hadn't tried to make. She wants to find out, and make a list, so he can try to when he wakes up.

If someone isn't eating - or if Anna had come up just in time to miss any food, she is looking for anything that might be turned into a bow. Do you have tails on your coat? How about a tie that you don't tie? A scarf? It will end up a bow if enough attention isn't paid. ]

[Jade is eating out today. The most recent events put him rather on edge, so getting out with some fresh air was good and he figured it'd help a good deal.

Today it was tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich.

Eh? She looked new.]

My, we seem to be getting new people every day, even with the recent crisis.

she will kill you with cute c:

[aprettyred]

... New?

[ Did she really look that new? Or was it because she stayed in the bar, or attached to Mikoto or Tatara otherwise? ]

I was here for ... clerics and mages and warriors curse.

Oh nooooo

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

[He tilted his head and rose a brow.]

Then you're very good at hiding.

heheh c:

[aprettyred]

... Maybe.

[ Or maybe Jade just doesn't go to Bar Homra. Either way, she spends a moment staring up at him - or more specifically, his eyes. That's a lovely red.

Then she looks toward his food. ]

What is it?

eeeee

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

Tomato soup and a sandwich.

[It's good food. Not for kids. Grown-up food. Yep.

Delicious.]

[aprettyred]

... Its red.

[ She totally isn't inching over to it. ]

Is it spicy?

[bootsweremadeforcasting]

[Jade blinked at her, then to his food.]

Not at all.

Lunch!

[martelapproves]

[ Mithos wasn't eating, mostly because he didn't have to eat. He didn't have much of an appetite, either, so while everyone else was eating, he just excused himself and left. Why was he here, anyway? Martel loved the beach, and he didn't want to be reminded of her. Furthermore, he refused to wear a bathing suit, or go swimming.

He didn't know why. Maybe it was just the sound of the waves he wanted to hear. It was getting close to a year since...

What was that? Was someone pulling on the back of his outfit? Those two flaps on the back of his shirt? He turned around, his hand glowing, expecting it to be a monster of some kind. Of course... it just had to be a young girl, didn't it? One who appeared human, even. ]

What are you doing!?

[aprettyred]

[ Sorry, Mithos, Anna.. can't exactly tell what is going on with that hand, except that it was raised.

So she blinks once or twice, still holding onto the shirt-flaps. ]

Making a bow.

[martelapproves]

Out of my shirt!?

[ He looks offended. He jerks it out of her hand... and almost rips it. ]

S-Stupid human!

[aprettyred]

[ Anna doesn't try to hold on when he does that, but stares at him a moment longer. That... feels like anger. ]

I thought it might be prettier that way, in a bow.

[martelapproves]

It's fine as it is!

[ He's glaring. His fists are clenching. ] What is it with you weird humans? Why do you like touching me so much!?

[aprettyred]

[ She stares at him rather intently now. It might feel a little bit like that stare is reaching deeper-

But then she blinks and that feeling stops. That would be rude of her. ]

Are you a strain too?

[goodlifechoices]

[ Marie was having lunch outside of one of the little cafes in Vatheon, eating a strawberry sponge cake. She's off in her own little world for a moment there, but eventually she notices the girl and wiggles her fingers in a wave. ]

Hi there.

[aprettyred]

Hello.

[ That cake is very red. Anna stares at it for a moment, before waving a little back. Its a very small wave. ]

[goodlifechoices]

You look like you might be hungry. Is that a good guess?

[aprettyred]

Mmmhmn.

[ Are you going to offer her red-cake? Anna isn't sure that cake is first, but its red, so that means it doesn't really matter much to her. ]

[goodlifechoices]

[ Oh no, she's just so adorable. ]

Well, you just sit down and make yourself comfortable then. I'll be right back with some for you.

[ And just as she says, she gets up to go back into the cafe to get another piece of cake and a glass of milk for the girl. ]

[aprettyred]

[ Anna will be making sure her dress is sitting nicely when Marie comes back.

Oh! Cake and milk. ]

Thank you.

[ladyinscarlet]

[And An stops by to peer curiously at the girl looking at her food.]

Good afternoon, Miss. Is the food not to your liking?

[aprettyred]

I don't know yet.

[ Its new, and not-red, which makes it hard for her to tell.

But you are very red. Anna spends a good moment staring and watching. ]

[ladyinscarlet]

Oh? Are all of these foods unfamiliar to you?

[She knows how picky children can be about food. And yes, An is very red. It's not the first time someone stares at her because of it.]

[aprettyred]

... Its hard to tell.

[ Its.. sort of all greys. ]

[ladyinscarlet]

I could help you try it out, if you wish to.

[aprettyred]

What do you like?

[ She is completely willing to try it based on that. You have excellent taste, in her book, for all of that red. ]
