Homecoming

"Oh, that sounds really good right about now. I didn't really make enough salad earlier for 2 meals."
===================================
"It's just a lunch and dinner place. It's not very fancy, but it has good food, and a cozy atmosphere. C'mon inside."

Taiyo follows Euryale inside.

"Well we still have eggs, right?" Sab asked, "I can make us some."

"Yes. But if you're cooking the eggs, I'll cut up the tomatoes."
================================
*Inside, is a fairly small restaurant with wooden floors & tables, & a dark painted ceiling & walls. The lights come from little lamps situated on the tables. Each table is surrounded by a quartet of chairs with red cushions. There is also a small bar, behind which a young woman with black pigtails & an apron is standing.*

<Just the 2 of you?>

"Yes. May we please have a window seat?"

<Follow me.>

*She digs out a pair of menus & steps out from behind the bar.*

Taiyo follows, looking about.

Taiyo: "This is a nice place."

Sab smiled, "Okay. Do you want them scrambled or fried?" She got some eggs from the fridge.

"Fried sounds good."

*She waits to pull out the tomatoes.*
==============================
"Yeah, they do pretty well, considering the prices for things."

<Thank you.>

*After leading them to a seat by the window, she puts the menus down in front of them.*

<Can I start you off with anything to drink?>

Taiyo: "Orange juice."

OOC: She waits to pull out, huh?

"Oh good, I was kind of in the mood for that," Sab gets some butter, butters a skillet over heat, then fries some eggs.

"I think I'll have a vanilla Coke."
======================================
*Aroma is cutting tomatoes, like a boss.*

Having never been to this particular establishment, Taiyo is still looking about.

Taiyo: "Thank you for bringing me here."

AND WHEN THEIR POWERS COMBINE, THROUGH THE MIRACLE OF WHOLE WHEAT AND MAYONNAISE, SANDWICHES ARE FORMED!

<No, this is his roommate Cameron Sorenson. Who am I speaking with?>
---
*Tirea turns off the TV and lays down on the couch*
---
*Eve continues with homework*
---
*Monu nods and hands Hector a copy of his phone number*

<Thanks! I better get going, I have to pick up dinner.>

*He heads to the nearest fast food place*

"Later," Hector lit up a new cigarette and continued on the way home with Eduj.

"Father Isaac Grimm," Grimm answered. "May I have a few moments of your time? I have a proposal regarding those students who were lost on the trip."

<Su-ure.>

*It's a McDonald's. They're fukin' everywhere, man.*
================================
"It's no problem, Taiyo. I like spending time with you. And we both need to eat."

*The girl comes back with their drinks & asks if they're ready to order.*
================================
*They are presumably eating sandwiches.*

Delicious sandwiches.

*Monu orders, then grabs his food and walks back to the apartment*

Taiyo orders whatever today's special is.

Taiyo: "I really like spending time with you as well. It's nice we can be together without being cooped up in some cabin."

"I know of the claims members of your group made on being found, and while others may choose to believe in 'mass delusions' brought on by stress, I am willing to believe you," Grimm said. "That forest is an evil place- I have long believed so- and I do not doubt that it may hide dark secrets."
There was a short pause, not long enough for Cameron to respond, but notable. Grimm went on, "I would like to invite you to the church. I will listen to your story. I want to discover the truth behind this. It is entirely up to you, however, if you would like to come. I believe another member of your group is already considering it, a Ms. Cyprus. I hope you will do the same."

Hector and Eduj presumably arrived home and found Sidon about to make dinner in the kitchen. After saying hello, they want to the living room and found Astarte on the couch.
"Hey," Astarte looked up.
"Hey. Feeling better?" Hector asked, noticing that she actually spoke first.
"Not really, but I have something to talk about."

*Euryale orders a large hamburger with everything on it. The special happens to be beef stew.*

"Yeah, really. It's also nice to be able to walk."
================================
"These are really good. We make a great team."

Sab nodded, "Yup, they're like sandwiches of 'gooey sunshine'."

<Sure, we'll come. When and where?.
---
*Monu heads back*

Taiyo: "Do you want to go for a walk after? Unless being out in the rain bothers you."

"Depends on how much rain there is. I'd really feel better if I'd brought an umbrella. But I guess we'll have to walk in it anyway."
===============================
*Aroma looks confused, then laughs.*

"I'd forgotten about that."
