Evan: *It has been about a week and a half since he met Mai, and since then they've hung out a few times, watching movies, having lunch, or just talking, though he's avoided letting her come to his slop-hole of an apartment. Today, the two are just at the park walking around* And that's why my dad used to call me Spectrum.... *sees a cute girl sitting along reading on a bench and casually starts redirecting the walk toward her*

Mai: *Laughing into her closed hand* It suits you. *She notices the girl and goes quiet, trailing a little behind him*

Julia: *looks up from her book and smiles* Can I help you? *is referring more to Mai, not even really noticing Evan*

Evan: *Smiles* Eh, we were just walking through and I saw you were alone so....*notices that Julia's looking right past him* Fuck....my....life....

Mai: *Pulls his sleeve* ... y-you've got it wrong I'm sure... *to Julia* Um.... hi?

Julia: Hey, how're you? *gently nudges Evan out of the way so that she can see Mai better*

Evan: ....................

Mai: I'm... f-fine but I ah... my friend was speaking to you...

Julia: *snaps into focus and looks at Evan* Oh hi there. Sorry, I didn't see you with your cute friend there~

Evan: You know what......*pauses* That's fine......Mai......have at it......

Mai: *Meep!* N-no you don't... have to leave. *Ah, please don't go!*

Evan: *chuckles* I'll meet you back at the fountain later. *winks*

Mai: *Small noise of embarrassment* *Turns to Julia* ...ah.. I'm sorry, I'm being rude. *Short bow* I'm Mai.

Julia: *beams* No need to be sorry~ *bows a bit out of habit, then sticks out her hand* I'm Julia, nice to meet you Mai

Evan: *walks off, slight slump in his posture*

Mai: *Takes her hand* Likewise.

Julia: So what brings you out here today, Mai? *looks utterly enthralled*

Mai: *A little pink around the cheeks* Um... I was just out with my friend. *Why is she looking at her like that? Does she look weird? Has she got something on her face?*

Julia: *giggles a bit at Mai's blush* Something wrong, cutie?

Mai: *Cutie? Did she wake up in a different dimension this morning?* Oh ah, not at all... just... do I have... something on my face?

Julia: Yes you do~ You have an adorable blush!

Mai: Ah... thank you? *Blinks - she doesn't know what else to do, what's going on? *

Julia: *laughs a bit* What's wrong? Never been hit on by a woman before?

Mai: *Blushes a deep crimson* *So that's what it was* *Her knees buckle against each other a little, and she shrinks, playing with her fingers* ...s-something like that...

Julia: *pats the bench next to her* Come on, sit down~ Unless that guy before was your boyfriend or something...

Mai: *It would be a convenient way out but- she swallows and shakes her head* N-no... he wasn't my boyfriend. *Sits gingerly on the bench, heart pounding* ... I don't have a boyfriend.

Julia: *giggles a bit* Good~ You're too cute for him anyway.

Mai: ... I... I think Evan is... nice, he's... pretty?

Julia: *bursts out laughing* Not into men I see?

Mai: *As if she could get any redder* I-I wouldn't say that!

Julia: Awww.... You don't have to hide it! I go back and forth if that helps you.

Mai: *Back... and forth? What does that mean? She frowns a little and tilts her head, her confusion obvious.*

Julia: *giggles* I like men and women, hun. Nothing to be ashamed about~

Mai: *Her eyes widen a touch* *That... was possible? How dreadfully confusing.* I... I see.

Julia: So do you have a girlfriend then hun? *winks*

Mai: *For a moment - Corinne's face flickers into her mind, but she pushes it aside and shakes her head* N-no... no one... *Somehow it felt like a relief to say that*

Julia: *smiles brightly* Good, then you're getting coffee with me~ *stands up and grabs Mai's hand*

Mai: *Her eyes widen* E-ehhh? B-but I don't know you...

Julia: So~? That just means we have to get to know each other~ It's a date, not a relationship silly.

Mai: *Looks down at the ground, still blushing, rather liking the feeling of Julia's hand in hers... still, this was all rather sudden... and if her aunt knew...* *Mumbling* J-just... take care of me, okay?

Julia: *leans over and kisses her cheek* You'll be fine, hun. I'll pay~

Mai: *Her eyes widen a little and she places her palm over the spot... this was new* ... okay.. but that wasn't what I meant...

Julia: Oh? What'd you mean then? *confused*

Mai: N-nevermind... *An idea comes to mind* ... p-perhaps I'll treat you?

Julia: *giggles* Aww... You don't have to do that, Mai. I can take care of it~

Mai: I-if you insist...

Julia: *starts walking at a fast pace, pulling Mai along with her* So tell me about yourself Mai. What're your hobbies?

Mai: .... I like ghost stories... and um, manga - ah, those are Japanese comics...

Julia: *giggles* Nice~ What're your views on guns?

Mai: *Her eyes widen in alarm and she pulls her hand back, clutching it to her chest* Y-you're not taking me to a ... r-range or something are you....?

Julia: *bursts out laughing* No, coffee. Remember? I was just asking because I own a few for work.

Mai: *Still a little nervous* I... don't like guns... at all.

Julia: *smiles* That's okay~ I just won't bring them out while you're around.

Mai: *Shaky smile* I'd... appreciate it... what do you use- I mean, what's your work?

Julia: I'm a treasury guard for the Wisemen. I stand perfectly still for five hours at a time~

Mai: Ah... you're Elite. *Instantly feels a lot safer, where she probably shouldn't*

Julia: I'm an elite Elite~ I had to pass a bunch of extra tests. *beams proudly*

Mai: *It's infectious- and she smiles back* You must be very accomplished.

Julia: I'd feel a lot more accomplished if you came back to my place tonight. *busts out laughing at her own obvious pickup line*

Mai: *And just like that, she's deep crimson and spluttering* Y-y-your place...? F-for... what...?

Julia: *facepalms* It was a sex joke, hun.

Mai: I-I... I- knew that I just... * Sex? Maybe she was in over her head...* I... I don't think I....

Julia: Relax. That's why it's a sex joke. I don't put out on the first date. *scoffs jokingly*

Mai: *Shaky, half sincere smile* N-neither do I.... *Try ever.*

Julia: *smiles* You're so cute~ It's a good thing you're a lesbian, or every guy in the city would want a piece of you.

Mai: *Piece?* ...do... you? *She didn't seriously just say that did she? But she couldn't help it*

Julia: *giggles* Yup~ Just not yet. I like to wait

Mai: ....s-sorry... that was... innappropriate....

Julia: You don't have to apologize Mai. I think I can handle anything you want to throw at me~

Mai: *Smiles* You don't even know me yet...

Julia: So? That's why we're getting coffee!

Mai: *Giggles* If you say so.... *Tentatively takes her hand*

Julia: *squeezes her hand* There you go hun~ A little bit of confidence goes a long way.

Mai: ... I've never done this before...

Julia: I'll teach you if you want. *lifts her hand up and kisses it*
