[Rikku is wandering happily, Santo in tow, looking at anything and everything that glitters in the windows. She's a few millimeters short of pressing her face to the glass of the nearest jewelry stall, green eyes wide and sparkling almost as much as those diamonds.]

[Santo sees Rikku's interest in shiny jewls and immediately starts to panic.] Oh, hey! Let's uh. Go over here and look at something that. Is Cheaper. Please.

[POUTING FOREVER. But she nods with a sigh and loops her arm with his, giving the jewelry one last, forlorn look over her shoulder before dragging him towards the bane of all boyfriends' existence: Build-A-Bear.]

SOME PIZZA JOINT chrysophilist January 31 2011, 01:52:40 UTC
[They'd ordered two pizzas--one with everything on it (just for Santo) and a Hawaiian pizza for them to share. She knew from experience that Santo could handle an entire pizza by himself. It kind of came with the territory of not really having a stomach. She still tried not to think about where he put it all, even after all these months.]

[And Santo is in fact folding up that whole pizza and already starting to shove it down his cavernous maw. Which is still not at all appetizing.]

[Rikku doesn't look at him because she knows, from experience, that if she does, she'll totally lose her appetite. So she keeps her eyes on the other pizza and takes a slice, starting to munch happily upon it, ignoring the noises Santo's maw is making.]

A MOVIE THEATRE chrysophilist January 31 2011, 01:56:10 UTC
[It was Santo's turn to pick the movie, but Rikku couldn't say she was displeased with the choice; she had never really been into the sappy, romantic kind of thing (even though secretly, she was the girliest girl that ever dared to be a girl), and she was okay with the random-explosions-and-ass-kicking kind of film. Santo had picked the latter. They were waiting in line for drinks and popcorn and candy (she had promised herself not to ask for one of each kind of chocolate), Rikku rocking on her heels and people-watching as they moved slowly forward.]

[Santo is doing his best to keep the line standing from being completely boring by flapping his mouth endlessly.] So I heard from a very reliable source that this movie has like triple the throat punching of the first one.

[She can't help but laugh at that, and gives a little grin.] Maybe that's why it's called Throat Puncher 3?

SOME ICE CREAM PARLOR chrysophilist January 31 2011, 01:57:57 UTC
[Popcorn hadn't been nearly enough to fill her up, so after the movie it was time to get some dessert. So maybe she'd let herself ask for no more than four different flavors. That wasn't too much, right? Right. The Al Bhed carefully scrutinized the choices in flavor, tapping a finger against her chin as she deliberated.]

[Santo's already ordering a massive sundae. Thank the X-Gene for giving him a bottomless pit for a stomach.]

[Rikku gets the ultimate trifecta of flavors: vanilla, chocolate, and banana. All piled on top of one huge cone, about ready to topple over. This should be fun.]

MAKE-OUT POINT chrysophilist January 31 2011, 02:00:28 UTC
[Parked in the borrowed Jeep (yes, she had just borrowed it, she'd give it back on the way home, really), Rikku looked up at the stars with Santo, thinking about how this could be almost the same sky that she remembered from Spira, even though that was totally silly and cliché. But it was kind of comforting, knowing that maybe Yunie and Paine and Gippal were seeing what she was right then.]

[He could be thinking the same thing, really. He has a lot of friends to remember back home. But instead a rocky arm is awkwardly reaching up around Rikku's shoulders.]

[She leans towards him, giving a little sigh as she continues to look up at the sky.] It makes me think, y'know?
