Is the name 'Renée' familiar to anyone else? I saw it in some of the graffiti, and I feel like I should know it - but I can't remember.

Samehada-san, we should spar again sometime soon.

[OOC: As this is ~meta~ Souji is going to be dodgy about it on the journals, but I'm happy to use this for quicklogs!]

Renée? [.......] I knew someone who had a name that sounded like it, but it was different.

[coughcoughshank]

[tap, tap]

Different how?

[feathered_earth]

She spelled it Renae.

[coughcoughshank]

Ah, I see.

You should come by the candy store sometime~ We got some stuff in I think you might like.

[read: He'd rather talk about this in person. Though he /will/ have candy]

[feathered_earth]

All right! I'll drop in.

[YAY CANDY. ql?]

[coughcoughshank]

I'll be waiting ♥

[If you're up for it!]

[Krile heads to the shop on her lunch break the next day, giving Souji a cheerful smile.]

Hello! You said to come by, so I did.

[quicklog]

[coughcoughshank]

[He gives her a cheerful wave, and then pulls out the box of candy he'd made up for her from behind the counter]

Krile-san, hello!

[quicklog]

[feathered_earth]

Hey there, Souji!

[She walks up to the counter and peers into the box.]

What's all this?

[quicklog]

[coughcoughshank]

It'd be pretty mean of me to say I had candy and then not give you any, ne?

Re: [quicklog]

[feathered_earth]

I guess so. [She grins and unwraps one, popping it into her mouth.] So, what else is new today?

[i.e., she's wondering if Renee is anything he wants to talk about or if he was just being nice.]

[coughcoughshank]

[Got it in one, Krile :T]

Hmm, well~ I was kind of curious to hear more about the 'Renae'-san you knew.

[feathered_earth]

[Krile rolls the hard candy around in her mouth for a moment before answering. It's strange how things that happened two years ago seem like old memories.]

She was tall for her age--I don't think she was more than ten, but she was the same height as me. She was pretty smartmouthed, but still a nice person.

She was an artist too, a fantastic one. I still have some of her drawings. [The ones that had survived the Fire, anyway.]

Does that ring any bells for you?

[coughcoughshank]

Hmm...

[He looks thoughtful for a moment. Someone so integral to what this place was... probably not a kid. And probably not one Krile would trust.

He shrugs]

It doesn't, I think. But that's alright.

[It was kind of a long shot anyway]

[feathered_earth]

[Krile studies him for a moment, watching his reaction.]

What about your Renee? The one you saw in the grafitti.

[coughcoughshank]

[He takes a quick glance around - nobody else in sight. Good.]

I... didn't see it in the graffiti, actually.
