Laptop bag on her hip, she situated her hat properly before knocking on the younger girl's door. Then she leaned against the frame and waited...

"Figured I'd knock instead of just barging in," she said with a wink as she crossed over to where the girl was. Laptop bag was removed and set down before Marisa plopped down next to the other girl. "Whatcha reading?"

"I'm glad it made it in one piece. Thought about getting some restoration done on it, but that would've taken way too long. And I wanted it to be a surprise," she said, glancing up from the book.

"Thank you. I hadn't expected it at all."

Keeping the page Patchouli was on marked with her hand, she flipped to the table of contents and ran her finger down it. "The Unparalleled Adventure of One Hans Pfaall is my favorite in this volume. Berenice gave me nightmares for days when I read it. Can't, uh, make myself read it again. Is it the uncensored version or the reprint in here?"

Marisa let the book rest back where Patchouli had it before digging in her bag. Out she pulled a plain jewel case with an unmarked disc in it and a few doujin. "This disc's a collection of all the music we focused on while on Mr. D's trip. A lot of variety so you might find something you like."
She then held the doujin out. "Not sure if doujinshi are your thing or not, but if any of these interest you, take 'em. I warn you, there's some questionable and adult content in some of them, but the art is amazing." She shrugged. "I bring these back after every trip back home for Floe, but she... ah... didn't come back this year. No sense in them going to waste."

She started fiddling with the flash drive on her necklace to have something to do with her hands. "It was a blast, ze. I hadn't been to America since I was little. Mom was American," she explained and then quickly moved from there. "Gods, I got into so much trouble a few days - or would've if Mr. D. wasn't so cool."

Her eyes lit up with an idea. "Come with me when I go back to Tokyo next break. In October? It'll be just in time for Dai Ginza Matsuri and Kiku Kuyo. So much to see... even a golden dragon flying through the fall sky. The festivals are something you just have to experience."
Her words then caught up to her and a bit of color touched her cheeks while she idly played with the end of her braid. "That is if, um, you're interested in, you know, that kinda thing and wouldn't mind hanging out with me for... two weeks."

"No, I definitely don't see anything like that happening. Especially in the fall. There are a lot of foreign allergens in the air. It could turn out dreadful."
Reply
"Just because it could doesn't mean it will. Sometimes you just gotta take a chance."
She started gathering her things up, feeling really awkward and worried she was going to make an even bigger fool of herself.
