Gokudera-kun, are you free tomorrow afternoon? I was going to go to Cephiro, and I thought maybe you'd like to come...

You could even bring your cat if you want!

Why do you want me to go with and why am I bringing Uri?

[bloomingdragon]

You should see it at some point! It's a beautiful place.

And there's a lot of, um, animals just like Uri there...

[fuckthesistema]

Uh, there aren't a whole lot of animals "just like" her.

And how much is this little trip gonna cost, anyway? I'm not spending a ton of money on a vacation.

my computer's being really difficult. AUGH

[bloomingdragon]

Not like that! They're big and, well, weird. But mostly really big. You'll see what I mean.

It's not going to cost anything! I can worldhop, you know! Geez, since when were you such a cheapskate, anyway?

[Why was she nervous? Umi was never nervous about anything! Although she hadn't ever brought someone else to Cephiro before, either... It was difficult to explain what that other world meant to her, but by now it was inseparable from her identity.

Still, she felt slightly odd intentionally leaving her school uniform on to go see Gokudera, and she didn't need to carry anything, either. Get over it, she told herself firmly, and then was gone in a swirl of mist.

She'd been getting better at the whole worldhopping-without-leaving-puddles-behind thing.]

[Somewhere not too far off from Namimori Middle School, Gokudera was busy puffing away at the ever-present cigarette between his lips. Umi often met him here, tucked away from where Hibari or other wandering eyes may have been checking around, but public enough to not make him look too shifty.

For now, he just waited. Waited to see if Umi would show up.

Though there was no doubt that she would.]

Here I am, [she said, cresting the corner of the wall and trotting over. She was already smiling; she always looked forward to visiting Cephiro once she put aside her nerves.] Ready to go?

[fuckthesistema]

[Speak of the devil...]

Hey. [He took a second to snuff the cigarette out on the brick wall he had been leaning on before stepping up to her.]

Let's hop to it, then. I don't need Hibari jumping my ass for littering.
