"You have an inability to be quiet, don't you?" Raise sighed as he muttered the words, running his fingers through his hair as he made his way to where he had agreed to meet Cassandra. "It doesn't matter-"
"It fucking /does/ matter." Praise grinned as he walked alongside his other half, hands shoved in his pockets as he slouched and that damnable grin on his face. "Bastet, now Cassandra, Throne was all about you that one time, Aurora seems all protective- and then you've got me," He playfully tossed his hair at this, earning himself an eyeroll. "Face it, we must be doing something right.""And that something probably doesn't include you" Raise had entirely given up trying to be discreet about his conversations with praise as he walked through the Sphere. Most people had grown used to it, anyway. Now, as soon as he had a conversation with someone he would commence ignoring his more... violent half, but until then ( ... )

It took her just a few moments to regain her bearings, but when she did, she beamed a beautiful smile up into his face. She remembered this one from her first trip into the wilderness, and felt a little guilty for not keeping in touch with one of her two saviors.
"I've been... confused," she answered honestly, though still not without her smile in place. "And how are you?"
She sat back and took gave him a look over. He was attractive, she had to admit, and quickly stomped that thought out of her mind with a blush.

"She's pretty hot. You should hit on her." Praise murmured quietly into his other's ear.
Raise ignored this.
"I've been well enough." he shrugged, reaching out for the second glass of water on the table and lifting it to his lips thoughtfully. "Not very much has been happening with me." Raise admitted with a shrug. "I've yet to find any more memories... And I haven't really seen many people lately. {raise has been communicating with Bastet..." He sighed.
"Is there anything I could help with?" He smiled again, tilting his head curiously.

Remember we were talking about technologically advanced worlds? Well I might have come from one~ that didn't sound all too convincing to her ( ... )

"But then again, I don't believe that evading it is the answer either. Not for me, at least." Raise glanced to the girl, smiling faintly at the way she stuttered and blushed. Perhaps she was just as bad with social situations as he was. He seemed to be getting better, though.
"I'd love to listen. You mentioned that you felt a... connection of sorts?" He tilted his head, taking the menu.
"She's definitely fucking cute. I bet you could bed her."

"Wasn't there a robot like that in our dream?""Beautiful, destructive machines..." he muttered quietly, as though to himself. Machines... single pilots... and the battles that erupted around them. He sat up, tilting his head. "There's... there's some words that seem to hold meaning for myself and Aurora." He spoke slowly, as though considering each of his words. "Perhaps you'd recognize it?" he forced another smile. "It seems as though we do have some sort of connection ( ... )

"Gundam...?" Cassandra tested the word out on her lips. She was so surprised at how easily the sound came out. And then, "Veda..." That one was a bit more distant to her tongue.
"Gundam sounds familiar, feels familiar," she said almost immediately. The memories of her dreams flashed through her head in a second and she remembered herself saying painfully, "Gundam?" She shook the images out and looked at Raise. "I... I think that's what the machines are called." Her eyes were wide and waiting for Raise, for him to tell her if she was right or wrong.

He folded his arms on the table with a sigh, his mismatched eyes closing. He was a little disappointed that their conversation was entirely 'business' so to speak. But then again, they seemed to be on the verge of discovering something. "When the wilderness was a city, I found some boxes with the word 'Gundam' on it." He nodded. "Those are the models I referred to when we spoke. I believed they word meant the toy but perhaps..."
He sat up, looking at her. "They could simply be scale models of the large machines. In this case, I have detailed models of these Gundams. If we do both bear a close connection to these machines, perhaps it could be of help."
After speaking he grew quiet, reaching out for his water, before giving another smile. "It's... it's rather comforting to have someone finally confirm that the words feel familiar to them as well..." He tapped his fingers on the glass as he thought on this.

The waiter finally came around and took their orders. Cassandra politely pointed out her selection and waited with a smile for Raise to do the same.
She agreed completely with Raise. "I... don't feel so confused as before, at least not with you here," she returned shyly.

Raise tensed slightly, resisting the urge to choke into his water at his Other's comment, trying to ignore the light pink tinge on his face. "Ah.. yes." he stammered out, setting down the glass. "Yes, that sounds fine..." he murmured, sitting back as the waiter arrived. He conveyed similar information, passing off the menu.
He paused as she spoke shyly, glancing down for a moment and lifting a hand to awkwardly brush those flyaway strands of hair back behind his ear. "I'm... I'm glad that I could be of assistance." he muttered, smiling warmly. "Though I'm hardly doing anything... simply bouncing ideas back..."
"Perfect. Now subtly invite her over." Praise laughed happily. "It'll be easy!"

She vigorously shook her blonde locks and gave Raise an upset stare. "You do more than that for me!" She tried to explain. And then she gave a slight blush and retreated back farther into her seat, a bit embarrassed from her outburst.
Cassandra looked up from underneath her blonde bangs. She was a bit concerned with Raise's behavior. He looked a bit flustered, and his face was red. Without thinking, she got up and reached over the table, placing a cool hand to Raise's face. "Are you alright?" She asked with concern. "You feel a bit warm..."
[ooc: Cliche' D: I know. Stopped at episode 5. No sign of Halle xD Anywho I'm off for the night! Bai!]

He stiffened at her touch, eyes widening. "I'm... I'm sorry?" Thinking back, had he ever explained his condition to Cassandra? Perhaps that was why she was so concerned... And perhaps that was why she seemed so comfortable. Other than her connection. "I'm.. I'm fine." His lips curved upwards in a small smile of his own.
"..It's just rather warm outside, I gather."
"Good. Leave me out of this, telling her you're clinically insane on the first date is a bad idea." Raise wished that his Other would stop trying to give him advice.
He lifted a hand to gently take hers, pulling it down from his face. "Thank you for the concern, though." Raise nodded as this. It was only after a moment that he realized his hand was still upon hers and quickly withdrew it, glancing to the side.
"...I'm not very versed in social etiquettes..." he admitted quietly.

She didn't really think that one had problems in that area. They just usually come to you, right?
Nevertheless, she gave a reassuring smile. And then she couldn't help but let a chuckle out. And then that small chuckle became a full out bell-tinker of a laugh. He was so... adorable! And unexpected!
