Who: Haruka+Mirai
Where: Chagall Cafe
When: Wed 26, evening
What: Coffee meet up



It wasn't a manga cafe but at least the chairs were comfy enough.

Haruka was there a bit before six and settled into her usual seat. It was nearby the door and she could catch snatches of who was coming in and out. Someone watching her long enough would have noticed she sat with a sort of attentiveness that resembled a dog. She occasionally heard something that made her grin or tilt her head in that direction with a bit curiosity before she settled back into place.

She tilted her head.

"Like who? Looking to pay someone back or teach a lesson to?"

Mirai had no trouble correcting Haruka's assumptions about what he was after.

"No?" he questioned disbelievingly. "I was just thinking some of our group can do with a little push to enjoy life more. You can admit that, right?"

[allisnothing]

"Oh. Yep, most of us could." She turned her head upwards. "So you want to make things 'interesting' for the easier ones?"

[burningbow]

"Indeed. Or maybe I want to make things interesting in general," he said. "For my friends as much as myself."

[allisnothing]

"Huh."

The last of the ice clinked against her glass. It didn't have much coffee in the piece anyway.

"More interesting than if it's just for yourself, right? Tis a boring road otherwise, as someone put it." Like Imaizumi himself.

"You remembered what I said," Mirai said, smiling. "I feel flattered."

He necked back the rest of his coffee, which he had sensed was going cold when drinking earlier. His right hand was playing with the sugar decanter and cream on the table, and he kept imagining they were people he could fool once or twice.

"Well then, are you finished?"

[allisnothing]

"It stuck out?" Haruka replied, with a shrug. "And a sudden deluge followed right after."

She nodded at the question, pushing her glass off to the side. "You?"

[burningbow]

Mirai followed her glass with his eyes. Instead of nodding, he tipped his head. He wanted some time alone to think about things. He gestured subtly by bringing out his arm and raising his palm.

"... Yeah. Thanks for the company."

Haruka smiled and replied,

"Yeah. Same to you."
