... U-Um.

Go get some groceries. [Journal slamming shut. Jeez, she needs something better to say.]

[Action]

[Earlier today, Noel finally decided that now was a good time to head back to her place. That's what the plan was. There's the unfortunate fact that while she's heading back to her apartment, Nami's still nowhere close to recovering from

If you're out of things to eat, you're always welcome to come by my apartment. There's plenty extra.

...So long as you don't mind Tao's table manners, of course.

[Voice]

[bullet_dance]

[Why, Ragna.]

... Th-Thank you, Miss Litchi. I-I'll be sure to keep that in mind.

[Voice]

[not_meatbuns]

[That was a little more stammering than usual, wasn't it?]

I'm sorry if I startled you...

[Voice]

[bullet_dance]

--Eh? Ah, n-no, you didn't startle me at all. Don't worry about it!

[Voice?]

[cry_camellia]

[Now that's an odd thing to go and announce like that... Still, Noel probably needs her space to deal with whatever it is that's going on.]

[Voice?]

[bullet_dance]

[Noel should tell Ragna that they need better codes.]

[flicker_flash]

[See now, Katie's general goal was to get to this supposed barrier that surrounds Luceti, but she's ... well, she's not lost. Keep going in any one direction and she'll end up walking right into it, right? And so she decided to just follow the river and see if it took her where she needed to go. Which ... has now turned into a lake. HMM.

Oh well, lakes are pretty. She'll work out which direction she should go next in a minute or two, but for now she's exploring. And by exploring we mean walking one foot after another on the very edge of the lake, heading Noel's way.]

[bullet_dance]

[She sees that, young lady. B| Not that she'd scold her or anything, but she's worried about her slipping and falling in.] Ah-- be careful.

[flicker_flash]

Oh, don't worry. I'm always careful--

[Hands out for balance. And she looks up to see who's talking and offer her a smile, only ... blinks and looks past Noel, tilting her head in a curious stare as she comes to a stop, one foot hovering over ... the water's edge.]

[bullet_dance]

[Blinking as well, Noel turns her head to see what Katie's staring at. Of course, nothing's there, so she looks back to see... well, to see what looks like her about to fall in.

All Noel can do is watch in horror.] Y-You're going to fall in!

[Action]

[bullet_dance]

[She recognizes that voice -- THE PANDA MAN Yao, right?]

Hello! [She waves a little, looking at the equipment he's carrying. Hmm... isn't that...] That's... are you going fishing?

[Action]

[bullet_dance]

[Nope, though Litchi had told her his name.]

I was taking a walk when I found this place, so... I decided to just relax here for a while. [It's surprising how much it's changed since Winter.]

[awakenedchaos]

[The lake, huh? Well, someone else also happens to be there right now - though she's not really doing anything. She's just resting a little. She won't be taking note of Noel yet, though.

...Ow, headache.]

[bullet_dance]

[Derp. Seems like Noel doesn't notice Nu around yet, either. Just the pretty fishes. If she did, she'd likely run for the hills.

... Though she is getting a bad feeling. Perhaps she should head back soon?]

[awakenedchaos]

[And... ν-13 still won't notice her either. That stupid headache is kind of distracting right now. Pfft, like she'll actually do anything right now.

...Maybe tagging along to that bar yesterday was a bad idea after all. Ow.]
