[ A: mayfield high; open action. ]

[ During lunch, you might find a lone anti-social girl sitting by herself at a table. Not that she looks like it fazes her - in fact, she seems rather content just by herself. She's idly pricking her fork in her food, but not actually eating it yet. Instead she softly seems to be singing a song to herself, and..

[ action: mayfield high. ]

[ Diana doesn't approach Minako directly until she's done with her song. She finds the melody to be a really peaceful one and feels at ease with it. When she's finished, she goes over to the table that Minako is at and gives her a slight smile. ]

What's the title, Minako?

[dutying]

[ She raises her gaze from the food she had been idly pricking at instead of eating at that. For a moment she seems slightly on guard, but.. well, then she sees it's Diana. (And not the horrible one from earlier, judging by the clothes.) So she visibly relaxes a little. ]

It's called 'Sayonara, Sweet Days'. ... Ah, 'sayonara' being 'farewell'.

[notalwystrthful]

[ She decides to sit down next to her friend and nods. ]

It's pretty.

[dutying]

Thanks. [ Her head dips a little as she nods. ]

I wrote it myself, almost right before I came to this place.

-It's like a magnet to people like Dizzy.-

That's a very pretty song you're singing...

[dutying]

[ She glances up, not recognizing the person, but.. well, she's used to dealing with fans back home. This is little different. ]

... Thanks. [ It sounds a little surprised at first, but then she nods. ] It's a song from back home.

[heteropennae]

Do you mind if I sit down?

[dutying]

Go ahead. I don't think anything here is stopping you, is there?

[ it's her way of being slightly anti-social: not being welcoming, but not really unwelcoming either, really. ]

[hontobakabaka]

Minako, do you mind if I join you for lunch?

[dutying]

... Ah. [ She still recognizes this girl, of course she does after rescuing her that one time and talking with her more often before and after. ]

Sure. There's plenty of room here.

[hontobakabaka]

[She sits down and nods]

Are you all right? The song is rather pretty.

[dutying]

I'm fine. As fine as can be, after the.. weird incidents last week, either way. I hope the same counts for you.

[ She prouds a bit more at her food with her fork, but doesn't seem particularly hungry. ]

And.. thanks. It was one of my own songs.

[Rin's wearing her Resonance of Fate coat when her picture is snapped. She spots her walking off out the corner of her eye]

Huh? ♪

[dutying]

[ oops.. spotted. Minako stops, turning her head to look back at the girl. Her expression isn't very apologetic over it, though. ]

Sorry. Just took a picture. [ She points at the cellphone in her hand as an explanation of sorts. ]

[pokeay]

... Um... sorry to bother you, but, what is that...? [ what a strange device! ]

[dutying]

... This?

[ She raises an eyebrow as she points at her cellphone - she's used to people recognizing it, after all. ]

It's my cellphone. Don't tell me you haven't seen one before?

[pokeay]

Nope... well, I've seen things that are similar-looking, though. Are they common, where you come from?

[dutying]

Everyone pretty much has one nowadays, I think. Even if they obviously don't have them here, since this is way back in the fifties. They're pretty convenient though.
