[ It's only been a day since the draftees left and it's... kind of eerie being alone in an apartment that's usually pretty loud. He'd usually hang out with Masaomi or Frey but both of them are gone, leaving him with no one to really hang out with and not wanting to stay in the house.

The solution? Study! ]

Anne,
Are you free today?
I'm studying in Seventh Heaven, if you have nothing better to do.

-Mikado


[ action ]
[ Mikado's going to be spending most of Sunday at the restaurant, not so much eating but burying himself in work. It's a distraction, really. If he lets his mind wander, he'll only come up with the worst case scenarios of the draft.

So feel free to notice this studious kid looking kind of... very upset. Or the fact that he's taken up an entire table by himself with books and stuff. ]

[ all of this war talk made anne anxious; it made things a little too real. she is more than glad to see the note from mikado. ]

Mikado -

I would love to join you. I will be there with my books, presently.

- Anne

I'm glad. I'll be waiting.


[ And waiting he shall be, looking up every once in a while at the door to see if she's coming in. ]

[ she enters good spirits with her coat drawn tightly around her. anne stands in the doorway -- looking for mikado, ah! there he is. she hurries to his table. ]

Hello.

[ action ]

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

[ Of course she comes in when he's not looking. But he looks up at her greeting and manages a small smile. ]

Oh, hello! Sorry about the mess... [ Reaching over and pulling some books closer to him to make some room. ]

[slatebreaker.livejournal.com]

I don't mind. It is a kind of sweet disorder and I can appreciate that. I, too, get quite distracted when studying.

[ she takes a seat, primly. ] What are you going over, currently?

[ action ]

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

[ He grins a little bit at that first statement. Yeah, he can imagine that. ]

Mm, right now I'm just going over math. Did you bring anything, Anne?

got room for one more? :D~ (not for studying but just... keeping to her word)

[Selphie's wandering over to the Restaurant for something to eat so when she enters and spots Mikado. She wanders over to his table and sits across from him with a friendly smile.]

Hey there!

NEVER B|

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

[ Looking up at the voice-- oh, that was meant for him? Oh, oh, this was Masaomi's friend... ]

Um... Selphie-san, was it?

WELL, TOO BAD. XD

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Hopefully, she'll be his friend too as the smile stays on her face.]

That's me!

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

[ He reaches forward to move some books away from that seat. This is a bit odd, but hey, he's not arguing with company. ]

How are you?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[She isn't either. Mikado's not the only one on their own at the moment.]

I'm good, thanks. How about yourself? [And then she glances at the books he's moving aside.]

Hmmm, homework? Are you attending classes at the school here as well?

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes. I just thought... since I don't have anything better to do, I should study. [ And he nods in response to that last question. ] I think I've seen you around at school, right?

[acowardlyoak.livejournal.com]

[ well. it's a sunday, which means that shuri will be dutifully ducking out of the house to find somewhere else to eat. cooking isn't his cup of tea. though, he'd managed to make one of those successfully not too long ago! somehow.

at any rate, he'll be stepping in with the intent to order something big and expensive. and. get about halfway to the counter before he notices mikado. ]

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

[ Well, Mikado doesn't see Shuri step in he's immune to your sparkles now. He's leaning intently over his work, and has the outside world pretty much completely blocked out.

What will you do. ]

[acowardlyoak.livejournal.com]

[ NO ONE IS IMMUNE TO OAK SPARKLES. but. he hesitates for a minute. there are levels of awkward that could get pretty intense. but. but. but.

... huh. ] Ehh, well. If it isn't Masaomi's friend.

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

[ He looks up and oh, it's Shuri. ]

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

[ ...Oh, it's Shuri. ]

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

[ ...Well, shit. How does one handle this situation? ]

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

[ ... ]

done

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

H-Hello.

[ Welp, this is pretty awkward. Brb as he tries to think of another name to call him. ]

[acowardlyoak.livejournal.com]

[ this is the attitude of a young noble happily pretending that the previous week did not happen. literally. except he can't, because if he were really doing that, he'd have turned around and left by now. ]

What are you studying?

[dragons-peak.livejournal.com]

[ Mikado doesn't exactly know this yet but Shuri hasn't just walked away or latched himself onto him, so it won't be hard to figure that out. But it's better to be cautious about all of this anyway. ]

Oh, just... biology, right now. I'm not very good at it. [ SAYS THE BOY IN THE UPPER LEVEL CLASS... ]

[ The feel of a stare coming from an lady-man is really, really hard to ignore. So Mikado glances up and spots Duke. He stares a bit in confusion before going back to studying. ...Yeah, this isn't strange at all. Hopefully that guy doesn't impale him with that sword or something. ]
