Dude, of course! Recovery was a thing but it did not take as long as I thought. Besides, it's been a couple of weeks and can no longer be an excuse. Ready to head in? I'm actually kind of starving.
I have never actually been here before, no. [He holds the door open and he follows after her, glancing around the place while pinpointing a menu.] But a meat pie kind of sounds kind of good right now. I've been making a lot of pies and cakes lately.
[At least she knows exactly what she wants. He's not surprised by this and he nods in response to her explanation. He looks at the mirror for another moment before ordering a beef pie and a small apple pie to the mixture and paying for everything.]
Whatever I don't eat I'll keep for leftovers then. [Given how he says that though he doesn't anticipate actually having leftovers.] Want to stay in here or outside? The weather is nice enough for either.
[Off they go and he follows along to let someone bring them their pies while they head outside. He moves toward the table she indicated and has a seat, waiting for her to join him before he leans back in his seat to make himself comfortable.]
The crazy part, I think, is that I went back to class immediately but I have not had a lot of chances just to go out and do other things after being in the forest for a month. It's a nice change of pace.
Founder's Day was the first weekend we were back and stuff, and last weekend I was celebrating a friend's birthday. I do not mind doing those things, but it does keep me busy. [A pause.] Plus I went a whole month without really seeing my boyfriend so my weekends usually go to him.
[A shrug. They can talk about that later though because this is about Yukiko and John, mostly, not Yukiko and her girlfriend and John and his boyfriend.]
But all of that aside I think I missed even more than that. You guys stayed in the city, right? How bad were things here?
What the hell were chimera doing down there? We didn't see anything like that when we were down there in January, just the trains and stuff. Are they still there?
