Tohru ;;

[thirteenthace]

With all the rest he was getting, Phoenix was somewhat better than when he had first returned from Michigan. A fair bit of colour had returned to his skin already, and the bruise on his face had healed up a bit more - a few more days, and hopefully it'd be gone completely. But still even then, there would be all the other injuries that would need more time to heal up.

Many, so many injuries. Phoenix couldn't help but wonder if it was his own sheer tenacity that managed to get him out or this - or his own luck once again. As compared to the last times back in his world, this was the closest he had ever come brushing with death itself. And to be honest, the thought of that was... terrifying.

Phoenix was about to move, but then the voice broke him off from his thoughts and the man turned around to from where he had been gazing to blink in surprise at the sight of the strange girl next to his bed. Then came the bag of cookies, and all he did was to smile at her once he realized what this was about.

"Why, these look delicious," he replied, "Thank you for the effort. I can't eat them for now, but I appreciate it nonetheless."

;;; so late.

Tohru fidgets with her hands, staring down at the floor until he finally replied. She looked up, a light blush on her cheeks and she slowly smiles brightly. She ignore his wounds, trying not to stare because she knows its rude and feels guilty enough for just appearing here and disturbing his sleep.

"No no..its fine! Sweet tend to last a bit longer than riceballs or something so..its why I chose to bring that. Please enjoy it when you can," She squeaked cutely.

Its coooool.

[thirteenthace]

The man only nodded back in turn, still smiling as he moved to place the cookies on his bedside table - he couldn't eat them now just yet, but once his stomach was better...

"I'll do that once the fine doctor says I can eat them, thank you." he returned kindly. "It must have taken a lot of effort though to make something like this for a stranger like me." So many kind people in Death City indeed... and they all didn't deserve what he had the rest went through at the hands of the witches. If somehow, he could prevent that from happening once more...

[zodiaconigiri]

"How wonderful! Please take your time to recover though, I can always make more!" She replied and stepped a little closer in earnest," I enjoy baking."

At the mention of being a stranger, Tohru looked startled as she raised her hands to her cheeks and gasped. How rude of her! Her mother raised her better than that--oh gosh she was such a ditz- What would Kyou-kun and Sohma-kun say if they saw her like this? The thoughts and more swirled in her head and her eyes rolled comically as a blush stained her cheeks again. She bowed once and meekly looked up to him.

"Stranger? Oh no how rude of me for not properly introducing myself first! I-I'm Hon--um..Tohru Honda. It's a pleasure to meet you!" Tohru introduced herself finally.

[thirteenthace]

Phoenix laughed at the way the girl (Tohru, was it?) reacted, only all too amused at her honest words and actions - he didn't get to see people like her that all often nowadays, Trucy and Vera aside. It was refreshing, in a way... and made him think of Maya for a moment, just a little. Those were the days indeed.

Keeping his smile, Phoenix inclined his head politely as he returned the greeting. "Tohru, then. A pleasure to meet your acquaintance."

[zodiaconigiri]

Her lips curved into a happy smile as she clasped her hands and bowed again," T-Thank you very much. I know it is more common as a boys name but my parents thought it suited me!"

She stood up straight and her mind went blank on what to ask him. D-Did he introduce himself? Or Should she ask? But it might sound rude and Tohru didn't want to offend him or anything! Tohru shyly pulled a chair next to his bed, her hands fidgeting in her lap.

"u-um..where are you from?" She asked.

[thirteenthace]

Well Phoenix didn't know all that much about Japan, so he simply took Tohru's word for it as it was and smiled nevertheless. "Its a nice name anyway."

At her next question, the man blinked at it for a moment, trying to properly understand what she was asking before he replied after a chuckle. "You mean the world where I come from? California, Los Angeles; the United States. I'm terribly American for the most part."

[zodiaconigiri]

Tohru looked dazzled at the fact he was from America. She sat straighter now and her smile widened," America? Oh wow! I've never been there until now. Is California like Death City?"

[thirteenthace]

Phoenix laughed at the question, amused by it as he shook his head slightly in response. "Well for once, California doesn't really have deserts like Nevada does. So no, not really."
