Fuuka Yamagishi ✽>> 001

Who: Fuuka and Zelos
When: After this conversation.
Where: Around Vatheon :D
Status: Closed!

*Five minutes early. Well waiting wasn't so bad, she supposed. Leaning against the coral, she stares up at the waters above.

Meeting a total stranger face-to-face is rather nervous task for her, but she'll try her best to, in a way, fulfill her duties. Come to think of it, this is her first time doing anything else a Welcoming Committee member, isn't it? She hope she can do a good job of guiding him.

She checks her communicator - it's eight - and searches the streets for the red-haired man.

He won't be late, would he?*

*His eyes light up and his grin grows wider* That sounds great! Pasta is my favorite.

*He takes a step ahead as they get to the restaurant and holds the door open for her to go through first. Gentlemanly indeed! Say what you will about Zelos, but he knows how to treat a lady.*

Thank you ...

*She says gratefully as she enters. She feels like she should bow her head too with the thank you, but she also didn't want him to have culture shock either. And as soon as they enter, a chic interior welcomes them. She points to the table near the window.*

How about that table over there?

Perfect~♥

*And with that single word he slides lightly over to the table she'd indicated and pulled out a chair, flourishing with his hand to indicate she should take a seat.*

Um, thank you.

*It's a little embarrassing to take the seat b-because isn't this what a couple would usually do on dates ...? But Fuuka based on her observation passes it off as his personality. It does make her cheeks stop flushing though. Once Zelos too sits down, she hands him the menu on the table. *

I know we decided on the pasta but here. Just in case there is anything else you might want to get.

Hmm, maybe if they have those garlic bread knots. Have you ever had those?

*It may not be a date, per se, but really any time with Zelos feels like one. He's really only got a couple ways of interacting that he's comfortable with and showing a girl a fun time is default.*

So how long have you been in Vatheon?

*-That indeed is the impression she is getting ...*

I had garlic bread before but not garlic bread knots. Are they similar ..?

*The next question is fairly common here, but whenever someone asks her, she has to recount the months she has been here. It's always a surprise just how long she has been here.*

It has been ... wow, almost half an year. Time flies by very quickly.

They're pretty much the same only they tie the dough in a knot before they bake it.

*He glances over the menu briefly just to see but it looks like he's out of luck.*

Hmm, not here. Guess I'll have to make them myself sometime.

*a blink*

Really, half a year? That's quite awhile. Anything interesting about the city I should know?

O-oh you cook. That's very nice ... *She wishes she can say the same (mental sob).*

Anything interesting about the city ... Well, there is a 'curse' every month or so for a week. A lot of different things have happened, to harmless handicaps to a monster attacking.

It's very unpredictable place ...

Yeah, mostly to pass the time.

*The curses he'd been told about, but not what they entail. Monsters weren't a big deal, he'd had a lot of experience with those, but handicaps worried him*

Handicaps like what?

Well, there has been so many ...

*What would be a good example? Fuuka pauses to think about this.*

It varies. It can be something harmless like singing a song or being in different clothes. It can also be something troubling like losing a certain memory or your body suddenly changing.

...

That's ridiculous! Isn't there any way to stop it?

*Singing or changing clothes he could handle, but memory or body modification? Out of the question!*

I don't think so. That's why it's a big problem for us foreigners.

*Fuuka looks apologetic. If it weren't for these curses, Vatheon would be a pretty decent place to live ... It's no fun, discovering the bad side of Vatheon*

But don't worry. From what I've seen, we aren't always affected.

*Zelos tries to settle back down. Vatheon isn't falling apart because of these curses as far as he can tell, and Fuuka certainly doesn't seem traumatized, so maybe they aren't as bad as they sound. He takes a breath and lets it out slowly*

Well that's good news, at least. What do you say we order?

Sounds good to me.

*It's probably a good idea to step away from the topic anyway. When the waiter comes around to take their order, Fuuka asks for the pasta and grape juice and waits naturally for Zelos to finish the order.*

*Zelos simply orders water and the same pasta as Fuuka, any trace of his previous discomfort quickly swallowed up by his apparent amiable demeanor in the presence of the waiter. Once the man has taken their orders and vanished back through the door proclaiming 'Staff Only', Zelos turns his attention back to his company.*

So what kind of dog would you suggest for a teenage girl? I'm not big on pets so I'm a little lost when it comes to choosing.

*It's relief to know that the heavy stuff is over for now, but she can't help but feel that he's forcing himself. Hopefully that isn't so - ...*

Something small would be nice. I think bigger dogs are hard to handle for a girl around my age.

How about a beagle? They're about this *gestures with her hands the approximate size.* big.

Hmm... I was thinking something a little bigger than that maybe. For protection, you know?

*It isn't like he can be there all the time to watch over Colette, so a guard dog should be just the thing.*

In that case, Golden Retriever is a good choice. *It has been a while but she remembers reading about them.* They say it's very friendly and loyal. They're pretty smart too.

Although. *She remembers Koromaru and his small size. She chuckles slightly.* I don't think size is really important.

For a guard dog it is. I need this thing to be able to take on anything.

[Zelos, your older brother complex is showing.

*Fuuka observes his expression and nods. Whoever this friend is, she must be an important person to Zelos.*

I understand. You want your loved ones to be safe.

*As Zelos opens his mouth to respond, the waiter comes back with their orders, causing a smile of delight to light up the Chosen's face* This looks really good~! Great choice, Fuuka-chan ♥

[Of course he won't eat a mouthful until Fuuka does first. He does have manners after all.]

*She flushes pleasantly.*

Let's eat before it gets cold. Thank you for the food ... *She says the phrase out of habit but picks up her fork regardless. Wrapping the pasta around the fork, she takes a bite. It is so good ~ She must've been hungrier than she originally thought.*

*Zelos tucks in after Fuuka's had her first bite. He's quite deft at twirling the noodles on his fork but he did say pasta was his favorite so it's no surprise. He seems to savor each bite, paying attention to taste and texture; after all, he doesn't need to eat in order to survive since the crystal sustains him, so instead he eats for pleasure and has gotten in the habit of savoring each bite of anything he consumes.*

Mmm~ My compliments to the chef!♥

*It's rewarding to see Zelos enjoying the food, that it is. Fuuka watches him eat for a minute, feeling happy for him and proud of herself.*

Now that you know about this place, feel free to come by anytime.
