Valhalla Central Park -> Aegir Beach
"Koishi? That's a very adorable name. Nice to meet you, my name is Bora." Bora introduced herself, taking Koishi's hand for a handshake while she arrived at the destination: a beach that stood adjacent to the Central Park. It was still quite an early morning, so not a lot of people were swimming; although some die-hard surfers enjoyed the waves all the less.
"Strange. I thought we were doing streetside shots first." Bora questioned as she decided to indeed take off her boots; putting them back on is a pain, but walking across the sandy beach with long boots on is more of a hassle. Now barefoot, Bora did not hesitate to enter the sands, heading towards the camera crew who were busy setting up their gear. "Mason, I thought we were taking street shots first."
"Director told me to move straight to the beach shots. Apparently there's an event going on where we were supposed to shoot." Mason the photographer answered. "And here i thought we reserved the damn place first... anyway, we're just going to have you in some sun dresses, then we're all just going to relax for the rest of the day; maybe take a soak in the ocean."
"That sounds good." Bora nodded. It was unfortunate that she wasn't going to showcase hats to her new companion, but oh well. "Do you mind if we have someone watching the shoot? I found a little girl who found our little session interesting."
"Of course, as long as she doesn't get in the way of the camera." Mason shrugged, to which Bora turned to Koishi and gave her a thumbs up.
Yukimura Household | Uptown District
Ikazuchi stared at Kaito for 5 seconds, realizing how stupid she was with that question. She looked absolutely adorable while doing so, too, until she came to her senses. "Oh, right. Oops."
"Yep, I brewed some coffee for you! They're in the coffee pot; black, just how you like it." Ikazuchi added as she took out her cell phone and started speed dialing to call the police station that Kaito worked at. "Yes, hello, this is Kaito Yukimura's mom..."
Homeroom 2C
The entire class was dumbfounded and speechless at the new student's... gallantry. Some of them looked absolutely confused, not able to comprehend what just happened. Those that did understand either shook their head in disgust or struggled to keep themselves from laughing like a rude person. Two people elicited different reaction: Karuna who just looked eager and welcoming, and Alisa who looked away towards the window next to her desk.
"W... well, nice to meet you, Drake. Why don't you find a seat?" Miss Violet suggested, guiding him to the classroom with a small nudge on Drake's back. "Let's see... that seat next to Karuna is open... as well as that seat right in front of Alisa. You may choose to seat in either of those two, but don't take too long; we have to get started."
