A hero takes your hand

WHO: Sakura Kinomoto, OPEN
WHERE: The Confectionary Bakery, Mall, Library
WHEN: 20th September
WHAT: Sakura out at work or out and about shopping or working on homework at the library.
WARNINGS: None off of the top of my head.



Confectionary:

[Sakura looks up when the door opens, her hair shifting a little with the movement of her head as she smiles and welcomes the new arrival. She's at least sort of used to the uniform by now, and dressing up in general thanks to her best friend taking sewing classes and wanting a model of sorts to make sure her outfits fit and looks alright when worn. She stands at the counter, which is luckily low enough for her not to have trouble with, smiling with a wave before gesturing to the displays of cupcakes.]

Hello! Which flavor would you like today?

[Or, perhaps, if she sees the customer here often enough, she'll ask if they want their usual order. If she has noticed they seem to have a particular favourite.]

Mall:

At least I'm ready school wise. So there's just the groceries to get for tonight and anything for tomorrow. But I guess while I'm here I should look for a new jacket.....

[It's quiet. More some habit of talking to herself to not forget her errands or such. But that doesn't mean others might not overhear her while she is there to primarily figure some groceries, but also perhaps a couple of other things too. Sakura can be found around the aisles of the supermarket or perhaps in the clothing stores, eyeing a new top or coat or skirt, perhaps.]

Library:

[Sakura usually figures it easier to study if she stays at the library and isn't distracted by the cleaning or cooking until she's actually done her homework, if she comes by after school once she finishes classes. She might be sitting down with her textbooks and laptop trying to get through some of said homework this afternoon. She might be chewing at her pen or pencil, or perhaps someone notices her frowning and pouting at her notes or textbook as she tries to figure something out. She might just be distracted still wondering what her recent memory means. The contract.....that...er, talking stuffed toy? How can she be expected to keep up with school with weird things like that? If more of this might happen? She puts her head down at her arms, groaning into the fabric of the sleeves of her shirt.

Or maybe she is instead found a little after, having finished and then taken to wandering the shelves of books for something non school related to read in the evenings.]

My cousins, actually. [ and she will pay carefully... ] Things are a little strange of late, so they might enjoy the gift...?

[ She thinks for a moment, staring at the two that were suggested. Finally, she shrugs. ]

Okay, you've convinced me. I'm no match for your sales expertise. I'll take both of them.

[Derek hands her a $5 bill before answering her question.]

Yes, a container please.

[He watches her as she rings him up. With a bit of concern in his voice asks her the question that had weighed on his mind since he came in.]

Aren't you a bit young to be working? Especially alone in store or is there a adult in the back?

Don't worry. I'm stronger than I look!

[ His strength isn't muscle strength, unfortunately, but he makes a good show of being able to carry the bag effortlessly after Sakura finishes packing her things, and they head out the library to the open grassy space outside. ]

You do have a lot of books, though. I had a nontraditional education after elementary school, so I didn't learn from books for many years— I'd forgotten how hard it is to sit still for so long, and read tiny print all in black and white...

[Derek takes his change as his thought bubble changes to clearly say:And they have a child man the front, completely unsafe. He takes one of his business cards from this wallet and then shoves the wallet back in his pocket. He takes the container from Sakura and then places his card on the counter and leaves the tips of his fingers on the card. He takes a glance at her name tag before opening his mouth.]

Miss Sakura, a word of advice from a concerned stranger, choose your words carefully when you answer a question from someone. A young girl alone at the front of the store is never a safe situation so saying that you only 'think' some one 'might' be in the back can be enough for someone to take their chances and grab you and take you out of this store. Be more confident in yourself. Confidence deters most creeps.

Also, let your manager know that I think it is irresponsible to let a girl as young as you man the front by herself. They should be more concerned about the safety of their employees.

[Derek removes his fingers from atop his business card and shoves his free hand into his jacket pocket. He nods towards his card.]

That's my business card, I'm a CSI at Recolle Police department. If you are anywhere in the city and need help, give me a call.

...If you could, that'd be wonderful. I'd hate to drop any of them. Ah - I'm Kyouko, by the way.

[ The only experience Ryoji has of schooling in Japan is through his other self's memories, little snippets of being introduced as a transfer student, talking with the other students after class, meeting fronts outside the school gates... He doesn't actually remember anything about studying or learning, go figure. ]

Sort of like homeschooling, yes! I had one teacher who would teach me everything. If it were math, we would sit down and talk through it. Science would be outside, with the trees and the sky. History and language and culture, we would fly to that country and learn in person.

[ Soleil watches intently. This girl is so young. So tiny. She can't handle it. ]

Working here must be nice. You get to eat lots of sweets, right?

[ She hands over a twenty. ]

Normally, Kurogane hated shopping for clothes. Today was no different, but the old leather jacket he'd been wearing for years was finally starting to give out, and he'd been needing a new one for quite awhile. Since he was so tall and had such long arms it was usually better to go in person for things like this anyway, so they could get altered in store rather than him trying to mess with it online. It was a lot more annoying doing that.

He was making his way to the men's section when he saw the girl, and had to smirk at hearing her running commentary to herself.

"You make a habit of saying your plans out loud?"

For some reason, he was curious. Probably because she was just really cute, but he could also feel some flashes of familiarity that he didn't think could all be chalked up to chance.

[He tries not to wrinkle his nose at the mention of margaritas. Not an alcohol fan, why would he want alcohol flavored food?]

Hmmm... Do you have filled cupcakes? Like, with fruit for the vanilla and cream for the chocolate? If not, plain ones will work.

[Can't go wrong with fruit filled, right?]

Thank you!

[Sakura will pay whatever price; she always makes sure she's carrying enough to cover the small cost. Though given the afternoon rush hasn't hit the shop yet, she glances around for a spot to sit or even a free space of wall to lean on. Eating her cupcake inside is preferred to the heat of the summer.]

I can't wait for it to start cooling down... [The statement isn't really aimed at anyone in particular, though since she's still within talking distance of the other girl, turns and gives her a smile] I'm not good in the heat, and I swear even a cupcake melts in this weather.

[Holding up the cake box and nodding a 'thank you', Derek exits the shop. As he walks down the street towards the precinct lab, his thought bubble changes to say: Probably gonna have to check occasionally to see if she hasn't been snatched.]

Kirigiri Kyouko. [ she'll just give it the japanese way around...she lived there longer than she's lived in america, after all. ]

Have you moved here recently...?
