[ Honestly though, compared to what Oria eats, it might as well be healthy. He orders ten deluxe burgers (yeah), and a regular sized drink (surprisingly) and goes to sit at a table with Sinclair. ]

Beatrice is coming over, right? When was it again?

[insinning]

[Ten...how...

He sits down with his food, watching with trepidation at the burger stack]

Saturday. She'll be coming over around 10, assuming her flight arrives on time on Friday.

[dissimulative]

Did you think about some plans you wanted to do with her?

[ Tour of the campus? Botanical gardens? City market? ]

I can help if you need some ideas~

[ Two burgers are gone. ]

[insinning]

Hmm. [Sinclair is still working on his one and only burger...] I was thinking of lunch somewhere...but I was having a hard time thinking of ideas. It'll be her first time in the city too.

[dissimulative]

If she likes teacakes, I recommend the cafe over by the park. They got some new matcha stuff out recently. That metro diner got some new selections got lunch too and I heard it was tasty while giving you a good portion of food. They're having a dog therapy session in that park I just mentioned on that day too, so if she likes dogs a lot, she can play with them too.

[insinning]

Ah--[That's a lot of suggestions]

Mm. The cafe at the park sounds good. We haven't had a dog since Aitla.

[And now Beatrice was too busy trying to keep the family company afloat to even consider another dog]

Oh. That reminds me. She wants to know if you're free for dinner on Sunday too. She said she got reservations for three at this nice restaurant.

[dissimulative]

[ Oria checks his calendar on the phone and... ]

I'm free on Sunday! I wonder what kind of restaurant it is...

[ Then he starts rambling a list of them in the area. Five burgers out of ten are gone. ]

[insinning]

[He manages to finish his burger before Oria finishes his sixth? Seventh?]

Oh, repeat that last one?

[dissimulative]

Attica.

[ Oria is on his ninth burger now. ]

Is it that one?

[insinning]

That's the one.

[ He'll just push his box of fries closer so Oria can help himself if he wants. He's getting full...]

[dissimulative]

[ After finishing the rest of his burgers, Oria takes the fries too after taking a sip of his drink. Truly, where does it all go... ]

Heard they got some good steak there.

[ Hehe. Oria is definitely looking forward to it now. ]

Among other things.

[ The things he is less interested in. ]

Are you gonna head straight to bed after this?

[insinning]

[HOW...]

Mmm...maybe. I don't have any homework left to complete, so I have some free time.

[And he doesn't like sleeping right after dinner]

[dissimulative]

[ It's a mystery... but not as mysterious as Oria's homework load, since he has a specific study hall dedicated to doing his homework. He has so much free time... ]

What do you wanna do?

[insinning]

[Hmmm]

The game room? It shouldn't be too busy right about now. Unless you had something else in mind.

[Like late night explorations of the campus

(no)

(unless...?)]

[dissimulative]

Let's go look around the campus.

[ It's what Oria usually does anyway, but maybe he can find something new... or show Sinclair around in all these hidden spots he found. ]

Get ready for the night life! I'm done with my food so we can go whenever!

[insinning]

I'm done too. [He'll pick up his tray to throw away his rubbish] We're not going to get in trouble poking around?

[He's still getting his head around boarding school life]

[dissimulative]

We won't get in trouble if we don't get caught~

[ Oria cleans up his tray too. ]

Besides, a good exercise right after a meal feels great, doesn't it?

[ He starts leading Sinclair out of the cafeteria and into the spaces between the buildings that can be likened to alleyways. ]

[insinning]

[...

Beatrice probably wont be too mad if he gets in trouble for being out of bounds at night. Probably]

I really don't understand how you move so quickly after eating that much either...

[There's a reason Sinclair likes to keep his meals light. But he lets Oria lead him out of the cafeteria, eyeing up the alleyways(?). There aren't going to be any stories of hauntings to go with this, are there?]

[dissimulative]

[ Well. ]

Did you hear about the seven mysteries of the school? One of them is a black cat that tries to tag your leg to bless you for good luck on your next test.

[ lmao. Oria rolls his eyes but he grins anyway. ]

It's usually seen around here. I wanna see if we can find it. Catnapping.

[insinning]

[He's not perking up. He's too mature now to get excited over small fluffy creatures.

(He wants to see this cat)]

And here I thought you were going to give me some kind of horror story. [He relaxes now and pulls out his phone for a little light]

A black cat, huh? That'll be hard to find...

[dissimulative]

It will be if you keep flashing your phone around. But if it's a horror story you want, it's a horror story that you'll get. There's another cat story, but it's a cat... with hands.

[ Oria even raises his hands to wiggle his fingers. Totally not scary. ]

It will eat you after giving you three ququestions. No one has lived through the three.

[insinning]

Fine. [He turns his phone back off, and then bats at Oria's hands. Quit it] A cat with hands would be a little creepy, but...

[He'll just crouch low and make some cat coaxing noises. Here kitty, kitty?]

[dissimulative]

[ No kitties come to Sinclair's call except... an orange tabby. It seems pretty friendly and rubs itself all over Sinclair's leg. Mew.

Oria just looks at this with an amused look on his face. ]

Disney princess.

[insinning]

Shh. [Sinclair would shoot Oria a look, but he's too busy giving the orange tabby all the scritches it deserves]

Now where did you come from?

[dissimulative]

[ If only meows, purrs, and flops on its side. Rub belly pls. Oria looks at the cat and then at Sinclair before hopping onto a side ladder to climb up the building. ]
