[indent][color=gray]Before either of them could continue their conversation, they were suddenly interrupted by a knock at the door. Apparently, it was time for them all to have dinner—their first actual meal at the complex. It left Natsumi wondering what type of food would be served, especially since they were supposed to be served by a three Michelin star chef, or so the introductory video had stated. She had never ate a Michelin-worthy meal before, so it would be a new (and certainly tasty!) experience to explore.

[COLOR=50c878][sub]"I'm sure we can always watch it after dinner."[/sub][/color] Natsumi replied, smiling at Sophia in return.

Standing up from her seat, Natsumi followed Sophia and the guard to the cafeteria, wherein a group of her fellow attendees had already gathered. Finding her place in the girls' line behind Sophia, the meal service reminded Natsumi much of a school lunch period. Each were given a plastic tray with somewhat disappointing-looking food haphazardly thrown on the plate, not unlike your typical lunch lady. At least they were willing to dole out a decent amount of food on top of a small desert.

Taking a tray of beef bourguignon for herself, Natsumi wandered over towards the cafeteria tables. She looked around for Sophia or Lina, tempted to sit with either of them. But as more and more of the attendees began to get their food, it became clear that groups were beginning to form at the tables. Being always eager to make more friends, Natsumi instead decided to follow the growing crowd of people to take a seat at one of the tables.

[COLOR=50c878][sub]"Is this seat taken?"[/sub][/color] Natsumi asked as she approached the table, awaiting a response from one of her fellow AEGIS attendees.[/color][/indent][/indent]
