here we go again

[barelythere]

...Again?

... ... ...

...You changed... my journal name...

...It's kind of depressing, but if I really had to describe it, I'd say it's...

...

...Honest.

[ Creepy, but she's seen plenty worse, and...you know, creepy smiles don't always mean creepy people, right?

...r-right.

Nill nods a little, with a half hearted shrug. It's okay to not be noticed! It means no one will try to hurt you. ]

[barelythere]

[No worries, Nill! Kageno's pretty harmless when there are no soccer games going on, and even then... ... ]

...It's a little hard sometimes... but not so bad when you're used to it... right?

[short, shaky breath, working over his nerves. How do talk to girls???] B-b-but... I-I bet you get along f-fine, right? You don't seem the type to... w-weird people out... with your presence... hhhhuuu...

[laceandwings]

[ Lucky her! He seems nice either way.

Again, she nods, making a small motion with her hand. A little bit! Sometimes.

Does she get along fine? She had to give this a bit of thought. Well, mostly with everyone, not really with strangers though. Heine, Naoto, Badou, the priest...but strangers? She shakes her head a little, before attempting to make a motion to her back. She struggles, arms reaching to places they're just...too short to reach, and in the end, it's a fluttery vague gesture to her little wings that sprout back there.
Hopefully he gets her point: they usually are what scares some people. ]

[It takes him a moment to catch on, and he leans in a bit to get a closer look-- pardon the heavy breathing, habit is hard to break.

But he seems genuinely impressed by the little things.]

Ah...! I thought it was just... decoration...

...Th-they're... c... c-c...c... ........

[laceandwings]

[ That is a little disconcerting, boy is she trying to give him the benefit of the doubt here.

She shakes her head, and flutters the tiny things. Nope! All natural---well, sort of.

Her head turns again and she motions to her forehead, moving her own bangs out of the way. Can you see, mister? ]

[barelythere]

Ah...

[he smiles again, pulling at his bangs, but seems hesitant about tucking them away. They'd come right back, after all/]

...Th-they've always been like that... so I'm used to looking out from... b-behind them... huh huh...~

[laceandwings]

[ Oh, she sees. Well, as long as he can see! She was worried for a minute.

She gestures again. Can she see? ]

[barelythere]

[Kageno shies away a little, unsure. He can't remember the last time he'd shown anyone his eyes.

But, she seems nice-- he gives a little nod, but seems unwilling to move the hair out of his face himself...]

[laceandwings]

[ She turns her head again. Maybe he was too shy? Oh well, she wouldn't bother him about it. Instead she'll just smile.

She's particularly interested in your uniform, she hasn't see anything like it before. It looks really soft, and she can't tell what it's for. ]

[Such a nice girl! He grins back appreciatively, hesitating a bit before speaking up. He's never had much experience talking directly with girls, but this time it seems a little easier.]

Um... d-do you play any sports... where you're from...?
