Aiko smiled at the waitress and flipped the pages of the menu as she approached. "I'll have the croissants and a large cup of this coffee over here, please." She smoothly motioned to one of the coffees on the menu with a foreign-sounding name. Honestly, she just didn't know how to pronounce it, but no one had to know that. Besides, she at least legitimately liked coffee, and now was the chance to buy something expensive-sounding, right?

As the waitress took away their orders and menus, Aiko turned back to Kenji. "Oh, it's alright! Not everyone can be talented. I'd play something for you right now, Kenji-kun, but unfortunately, I left my violin at home. Maybe next time." She mentally listed all the saddest, most sleep-inducing pieces she could think of and kept a mental note of them. It'd be amusing to see what kind of effect they had on him, after all. "How about a song instead? My singing is just as good as my violin-playing, mind you."

Hm. It didn't look like Lily was willing to walk any farther with Breaker, so now Crisis would have to choose. She pursed her lips in a pouty frown for a moment before going with Breaker; she was just getting the hang of annoying him anyway, although he was also getting the hang of ignoring her. Everyone had their limits, though, right? It'd be a challenge. 

"Oh, alright then, fine. But I'd rather we all go together, mm? Still, I chose you, Breaky, so you better feel flattered for real this time." Crisis fell into step next to Breaker, breaking into a run as he quickly found an exit and went towards it with haste. "Hey...See? I told you the exit was there."

As they emerged from the foliage together, a fortress of some sort loomed up in the distance. It seemed dark and foreboding, the type that came out of horror movies...and also acted as perfect sets for drama. Crisis Sonata grinned; she knew some kind of action was waiting for them there. She could feel it. Breaker's lack of enthusiasm dashed her hopes a little, but she wouldn't let that get to her, now, would she?

"Aww, are you scared?" she teased, grabbing his hand by force just as it had escaped his light hair. Running for the fortress ahead, she towed him behind her and yelled back, "Come on! It'll be fun!"

Aiko blinked at Kenji's sudden remark; her excitement drained away all at once, replaced by a surreal feeling of forebode. "Me too," she could have said, but she didn't, even if a second ago she could almost feel sure that there was some sort of building there that wasn't there before and someone's hand was in hers, if that made sense. Instead she shook her head, getting rid of the weird feeling, and eventually recovering the gesture into theatrical pity for Kenji. "Aw, poor you. Sleeping through class and still completely exhausted..."
