Room 429, Sunday Afternoon

[raspberryturk]

Okay. Sunday afternoons were officially boring. The days of the week had classes and radio and reports to write for his job, and mornings and evenings meant that the ferret was awake and totally willing to be harassed, but Sunday afternoons?

Reno would like to vote that boring, lazy Sunday afternoons be stricken from the record.

He was in his room, sitting by the window and playing with his lighter. Fire go on. Fire blow out. Ooh. Exciting.

The door was open slightly in case something interesting happened to wander through the hallway, at least.

[Open, like the door~]

“B-Busy enough,” she conceded. “I have b-been trying to t-talk to more p-people, but that’s b-better some days than o-others. I e-even went to the p-party on F-Friday though, which w-wasn’t bad.” She’d sat on the sidelines. “My c-classes… one w-will be r-rather easy, I f-feel—Survival Skills. L-Leadership will b-be harder, and Alchemy w-was simply a c-curiosity. W-What are y-you taking this s-semester?”

Yei, for her part, was all about the snuggling and the sleeping and yawned a kitty yawn and put her head down.

Reno watched the critters as they each drifted, and then grinned up at Hinata again.

"War tactics, some kinda lit course, and that chem class. Made soap on friday. Wasn't really expectin' that so much, but at least the teacher seems cool." There was a pause, and then a but of a softer smile. "Good to hear you're gettin' out and meetin' people, though. It'd be a cryin' shame if a nice kid like you wasn't out gettin' friends or whatever."

She flushed a bit. “N-Not so many people,” Hinata admitted. “Just t-two of the new students and a-another who is n-new but from my w-world, just a few years i-in the future.”

"Hey, that's good too," Reno chided gently, crossing his arms. "You don't gotta have a hundred friends, you know. Just so long as you managed to get good ones. You at least got that?"

"I do," Hinata said, smiling. "That, a-at least, I can say with confidence."

[raspberryturk]

"Then you're doin' good," Reno decided, grinning. "Just so long as you got that, then you're doin' good."

Mako had started snoring. Snoring ferret. Reno was going to ignore it. Because if he didn't, then he'd totally be busted for being all 'awwww' at the pet-snuggle-pile.

Hinata had no problems with thinking it was adorable, and grinning a bit at the picture they made.

"I t-think so," she admitted. "T-Though my f-father would r-rather more."

[raspberryturk]

"Looks like Yei is bent on gettin' you out more," he mused. "I think gettin' a cat's probably a good way of meetin' people, too."

And, you know, of making people like Reno go 'awwww, kitty.'

"She i-is rather," Hinata admitted. "No matter how m-much I keep a-an eye on h-her she i-insists on g-getting out o-of the r-room. I m-might b-bring her to w-work with m-me on T-Tuesday just s-so she c-can explore."

"I bet she'd like that," Reno agreed. "Mako'll take any chance he can to get out and poke his nose into things. Cats don't seem much different, that way. I dunno. I never owned a cat."
