WHO: Yukina and OPEN
WHERE: Out on the streets
WHEN: Saturday afternoon
WARNINGS: None for now, depends on who shows up
SUMMARY: Courtesy of a flimsy grocery bag, Yukina's groceries have spilled everywhere (or, in OOC terms, a general CR opportunity)
FORMAT: Starting with third, either is fine

Oops! )
It wasn't until Yukina dropped what she was carrying that X-23 made herself known. She jumped to the ground, landing heavily against the pavement, and made a grab for the orange that had just bumped against somebody's shoe. The person in question glanced down at her with a distasteful expression, too preoccupied with acting busy to even considering helping out.
Ignoring him, X-23 picked up a few other items, and then turned to Yukia. She didn't make eye contact, kept her gaze on the cracks in the pavement below, and held out her scattered shopping to her.

She was wearing her kimono today, and pulled the fabric hanging down from one sleeve up towards her body, collecting the food she'd purchased from the quiet dark-haired girl in the make-shift pocket. Of course, she'd still have to hold onto everything, but it would make it easier to avoid dropping anything this way.
"How have you been lately?"

“Need help?”
[ ooc; sorry for the delay, too! I didn't get the alert ]

Laura/X-23 seemed so shy. Yukina herself could be somewhat introverted, but she supposed that if a chemical had been specifically created to make the other girl kill, other things had probably been done to her as well. The best thing to do was to not pry, but to extend her hand in friendship anyhow.
"We could go for a walk and enjoy the nice weather," she suggested.

“This way?” she asked, pointing in the direction Yukina originally seemed to be heading.

Mostly, she wanted her friend to feel comfortable around her. She noticed the glance the girl gave the bundle of groceries in her arm, and considered it for a moment. Perhaps it was her own way of reaching out...and it was best to be encouraging with people who had trouble expressing themselves. She definitely understood people who had difficulty with expression - after all, her own twin didn't want to come out and tell her he was the brother she had been looking for. Yukina had figured it out on her own.
Yukina started walking, moving around just casually enough that the top two oranges in her pile of groceries dropped out of her arms onto the ground.
"Oh no, not again!"
