[Well. Nobody did erase the GM last week, did they? Even if they did, she obviously had some trick up her sleeve, as she's definitely skulking around town... in several places, even. She's obviously been demoted, as well, judging by the scowl on her face. She doesn't seem to be harrying today - another reason for the scowl, judging by how aggressive she was at the end of last week. The reapers have a strange set of instructions as well - obviously, the goal to this mission isn't combatative.

And what's with guarding the church? There's nothing of note there.]

[poppetstrings]

Right!

[Well, they did get her for a bit there, but she's totally better now.]

[notsogrimreaper]

[Well, just don't tell Ryoji about that if you don't want him worried sick.]

Hey, I was just about to go grab lunch, you want to come with me? My treat!

[poppetstrings]

Oh! Sure! I need to eat now, after all.

[notsogrimreaper]

Eheh, right! So what are you hungry for?

[Hm, does Xion know that this might count as a date...?]

[poppetstrings]

[Not a clue.]

Anything. I've never really had much to eat. [It's only ever been icecream. WHOOPS.]

[notsogrimreaper]

Hm... I really like a pizza place here, if you want to try?

[They can get ice cream for dessert, don't worry.]

[poppetstrings]

Alright. Lead away.

[notsogrimreaper]

[And that is exactly what Ryoji will do, grabbing his friend's hand with a bright smile.]

[poppetstrings]

[No problems in following along here!]

[notsogrimreaper]

[Well, then, soon enough, Ryoji will lead Xion to a cute little pizza place with an outdoor dining area, tables covered with checkered tablecloths and shaded by large umbrellas.]

You want to sit outside?

[poppetstrings]

Sure. It is a nice day out.

[notsogrimreaper]

Very nice! Um, you could tell me what you want, I'll go inside and order!

[poppetstrings]

Well... I've never actually had pizza before... So, you could surprise me!

[notsogrimreaper]

Okay! I'll try to choose something really good!

[Hurrying inside to order now~]

[poppetstrings]

[And she'll just grab a nice outside table while she waits!]

[notsogrimreaper]

[A few minutes later, Ryoji reappears with a pizza for the two of them to share. The dough's absolutely covered with melted cheese, chunks of pineapple, and slices of ham.]

[poppetstrings]

[Oh..

That looks kind of interesting. That's what a Pizza is? It's nothing like icecream, that's for sure...]

[notsogrimreaper]

[Ryoji notices her bewildered face and stammers a bit.]

I-If you don't like this, I'll find you something else to eat, don't worry!

[poppetstrings]

Oh no! This is fine, it's just... I've never eaten Pizza before. Or anything besides icecream, actually.

[notsogrimreaper]

Really? Wow... I wasn't alive for very long, but I tried lots of different foods!

[poppetstrings]

I just... never got a chance too.

[notsogrimreaper]

That's okay! You'll get a chance now, right? We could make it a tradition! Trying a new thing whenever see each other!

[poppetstrings]

... [There's a tiny ammount of hesitation, before she nods, picking up her slice!]

I think I'd like that!

[CHOMP.]

[notsogrimreaper]

I'm glad!

[Picks up a piece of his own and starts eating hesitantly, wondering how Xion will like the new treat.]

[poppetstrings]

[It's.. definitely weird. The pineapple is sweet, but she's unsure about the taste with the tomato sauce and ham with it.

It's not bad, but she doesn't know if she'd eat it all the time.

She'll keep her mouth shut about that and nod to Ryoji, however with a smile.]

It's.. really interesting.
