Ugh he needed a break. The afternoon times were not his favourite time of the day. At about 3 or 4 he would get so tired because he woke up so early, the early dawn was his favourite time. It might have to do with being a sort of cat and still, he felt tired and wouldn't mind a nap. He just got off his job and decided that with the yen he had now he should buy something. Maybe a drink here and consider what to buy for Lilith, just as a thank you. Maybe he could bake or cook something for her. Would she appreciate that? Seriously, Akiva didn't even know anymore what Lilith liked at this point. Maybe he should ask another person here. He looked at his phone, or just ask Lily if she wanted fresh apple pie or something like that. He could make that and he was getting better with Teruko's advice for sure. If only he had more patience. He looked at his reflection in the shop that he stood for, it was a nice day outside, though cloudy there was no rain coming and though it was windy it wasn't as cold anymore as it was. Spring was coming and that suited him fine, he couldn't wait to go to the beach. Would Lily be able to come along? Damn, he needed more friends for sure.
He turned around and accidentally bumped into someone when he was lost in thoughts. Seriously, what could he do right, if only he could crash on the couch at home and sleep till tonight and maybe ask if they needed someone for an extra shift at the bar. This was tiring for sure. He wasn't sure what to do about it at this point, and he had to keep his head in the game. "Sorry, I didn't see you there." Maybe he could buy a milkshake at this place that he had stood in front of for quite a while, was it anything good, he would see if the person would walk on that he had bumped into and turn to look at the board. Milkshakes sounded great at this point and the weather wasn't so bad.
Yea, after that he could do the shopping for Lilith, maybe he should text her and ask if there was anything he needed to buy for her. He could be responsible for the woman who offered him a roof.

Overcast again huh? Having just woken up on her day off from school she sighed as she pushed the curtains open to see an endless sea of clouds overhead. It was to be expected given the time of year, but for Lyra who was dependent on the sun for energy, it wasn't exactly something she was happy to see.[break][break]
Regardless she knew that she couldn't just sit around in bed all day and even though it was later in the afternoon she decided to check her planner to see if there was anything she could accomplish before nighttime. Without the structure of university and the inability to do as much 'hero work' as she previously did in her home country most of her days off were spent exploring. In fact, the reason she got a planner was to not only give herself structure on these lazy days but also so she could mark down landmarks or shops she wanted to check out when she had the time.[break][break]
Standing up she took a second to stretch before she went into her bathroom to make herself look at least presentable to be out in public. Having decided that the Mustafu Moo Palace was the place she would try today. Since her quirk made it difficult to eat ice cream, even though she loved it, any place with milkshakes was the next best thing.[break][break]
Luckily for her, she wasn't far from the place in question so after a brief five-minute walk she had arrived at her destination. It was kind of a goofy-looking place with the sign on top being lit up in neon colors and a cow dancing in rhythm to the blinking lights. Giggling slightly, she smiled as she moved closer to get a look inside. Attempting to avoid the man standing in front of the window once she approached she found herself surprised at the abrupt turn he did and walked forward bumping into her. Other than being stunned briefly she was unharmed he seemed distracted so even when he apologized it was as if he wasn't fully there.[break][break]
Generally, Lyra wasn't one to approach total strangers but she was once again getting that strong urge that she needed to intervene and perhaps alleviate some of the thoughts that were clearly plaguing this man's mind. With a deep breath, she turned, moving to face him fully before speaking "Excuse me! Is everything alright? You look troubled" Perhaps it wasn't her place to ask this of a complete stranger, but at this point, she felt like it was something she just had to do.

Would apple pie be clichè? Or would it be worse if he made anything else? What if Lilith thought he was trying to swindle his way into her life or something like that. No, wait... didn't he sort of do that already by sleeping in her house because he couldn't afford one on his own? This whole question was too much of a debate and all he wanted right now was to buy that milkshake? Seriously, why did he make a life quest out of such a thing, he wasn't in a game. He had apologized, he had looked if the person he bumped into had walked on. Nothing in his brain, however, had registered, not her bright red hair, not that it was a woman, nothing. Just... he bumped into someone because he had felt it. That's why it came as a surprise that someone talked to him, stirred him out of his thoughts and his hands slipped to his back but he got a grip of himself and simply held on to his hands instead of doing something weird or regrettable. He didn't want to think about it and blinked at the young lady because he had no idea what she had said to him.
"Troubled?" He repeated, Akiva had to make sure it was the right word. Oh, he must have been constantly frowning. "I don't think you will believe me if I said it was a very internal discussion about which flavour to buy?" He said with an embarrassed grin as he put his thumb up towards the store. Seriously that neon sign, who could miss it. He felt slightly stupid and he hoped that she wasn't mad about him bumping into her, it was her right? He had to stay more vigilant if he wanted the issue to not become an issue. If he wanted to let go of his habits and whatnot, that did not work if he acted this ridiculous. "I mean I did not lie about wanting to buy a milkshake, my troubles only have to do with how to thank a friend for letting me crash on her couch. All I am good at is baking and it sounds... dumb. Aaand I am sorry, I must be wasting your time, am I in your way? Did I say sorry?" Blame the sleepiness, he was up since five this morning, it was almost 12 hours ago that he got out of his bed, it must be about 10-11 hours that he was like that and he was like a cat, he should be sleeping so many hours instead of being awake.

Initially concerned that she had upset him it looked as though Akiva's troubles stemmed from him and him alone. She felt as if she could breathe again once he stated that it had to do with a decision on ice cream. She had to place her hand in front of her mouth to stifle a laugh at the man's absentminded actions. It was kind of cute! Which was only furthered solidified by him adding that he truly was actually looking for a milkshake but not for himself? In a quizzical way, Lyra turned her head as she listened to his full explanation which while albeit a little rambly her emerald green eyes widened when he expressed it was for a girl.[break][break]
"Oh-oh!" she cooed "This is for a lady in your life! Pardon me for being a little forward, but perhaps you could use a woman's touch if you're gift giving!" the thought of romance got her heart racing and her excitement was palpable at this point. She pointed to the sign "I've actually never been here before so no worries about taking any of my time. I'd actually like to help you with your dilemma if that's okay with you?" she was basically praying that he would accept her help and this excitement was having an effect on his physical form as her heat output began to increase enough that Akiva would be able to feel a burst of hot air given how close they were to each other.[break][break]
Catching herself using her quirk unintentionally she flashed red for a moment as she calmed herself down "Umm...I do kind of want a milkshake first though" she nervously added "Hey! If you're thirsty I'd be happy to buy you one too!" she reached into her pocket to retrieve a coupon "See! I've got a coupon for buy one get one free so it's really no trouble. Perhaps we can talk more inside?" she gestured to the entrance which had just closed as someone walked out. She herself was about to walk in when she realized she never introduced herself "Oh gosh um...My name is Lyra, Lyra Amaryllis it's a pleasure to meet you" she said hurriedly as she gave Akiva a respectful bow.

Oh-oh, there is a Lady in your life? FUCK, no eh. Wait, no Lily wasn't like that, why did it matter, well she was kinda cute, "Eh yea I mean high school friend." Right, why did this sound like he was betraying Lily? He wasn't betraying anyone! He was able to say this without lying about it, he was just crashing in her guest room because he had no house. But as she said it was about a woman's touch, he quickly nodded, yea.. yea woman's touch.. just for the gift... you know. He almost said something more but he managed to keep his lips tight and simply smile at her. Don't say anything stupid now, Aki. He told himself, he shouldn't think too much about this, he could definitely get some advice on how to thank Lily for her friendly gesture, and for accepting him still after such a long time, considering the others had dropped their contacts. What did they think that he could always text them? Get a life.
What was it with women here, they all wanted to help him. Okay fair the first one was like fourteen but still... was he that pretty? He wanted to believe that and moved his hand through his hair and smiled still at Lyra, "Let me buy you a milkshake in that case and you give me the advice?" He got a job, he could buy a milkshake! He was sure, oh.. maybe he should say his name, but that would come later, he seriously hoped she would accept him buying, he had shaken off the offer that she would buy, Nah Nah, he wanted one and he bumped into her, "Also as a sincere apology, let me buy it. I promise." He pleaded at her, he wanted to buy, now that he could it made sense in his mind that he would do so and besides, she was cute. He needed to make a proper man of himself in front of her. Besides, her blush made it even cuter. But is plan failed as she had a coupon and he let his head down, "You win, I can't beat that." But he tried to keep his grin and not show his hurt ego, but yes, she could buy.
He grumbled a little to himself when she turned to get to the milkshake store and he wondered if he could take a few steps he could- but his mind track broke as she turned around and said her name and bowed, "L-Lyra." He didn't get used to the bows in his youth and barely anyone did now to a tug like him. "My name is Akiva Xerxes." He bowed, "the pleasure is all mine." And with her doing this, he managed to bypass her when they walked to the door to open it for her and let her go in. At least a little victory okay!

Being caught up in what Akiva was talking about made Lyra completely unaware that he had pulled a switcheroo on her and managed to do the chivalrous thing and hold open the door for her. Gaining some color in her face as she was slightly embarrassed by having not noticed she brushed a loose strand of hair behind her ear. "Oh a high school friend! That's nice~" she turned away slightly to not let Akiva see the smile on her face. Perhaps it was an inclination due to her love of romance novels and stories, but meeting someone like this?? Must have been fate.[break][break]
As she entered the restaurant her eyes widened as she looked around. It was a charming place with modern inspiration in the design mixed with classic architecture. It was fairly obvious even without having a particularly keen eye for aesthetics that this was a recent change given that she hadn't heard of this place before this week. It looked pretty busy even though she hadn't seen many people entering the brief time she and Akiva were out front which meant that they most likely just stayed a while. She took the lead as the duo weaved in and out of the people standing around or sitting in groups. [break][break]
"I'm pretty excited! I really actually love ice cream and stuff but it's always a race to eat it because of my condition and all. Having a quirk you can't turn off is pretty bad hu-" she quickly clasped her hands over her mouth to stop herself from talking more. She had been told previously by a college friend who knew of her other identity as a vigilante that it would be best if she acted as if she didn't have a quirk at all. "I guess that cats out of the bag huh?" she twitched nervously at admitting her 'secret' "I'm a quirk user I kind of can't turn it off...I hope that's not something that's going to be a problem?" her vivid green eyes met with Akivas in hopes that he could understand how vulnerable she felt admitting this and hoped that he wouldn't have an issue with her in that way. Quirk usage and those who had them were still on shaky terms and some people by just knowing that someone was a quirk user was met with disgust. At this point, they were at least 5th in line before they would be ready to order which would hopefully give her some time to really get to know Akiva a little better.

Well he at least managed to do something by making his way to the door and hold it open for Lyra. He liked her name, it did not sound Japanese, as his and he wondered where she was from. Her red hair was definitely something else too. Wow, what was his world small when he looked back at it and he did not want to think about it too much and smiled at her. He tried to remain casual, yes, high school friend, he nodded and stood next to her in the queue for the register. He tried to catch the names of the ice cream but his eyes glided to the people in here, wow, so busy. It must be a really good place, now that was interesting, or they all had a coupon. Ha, now that he thought about it, that were definitely a lot of couples... he swallowed and turned his attention to the ceiling before he turned it back to Lyra as he heard her and would be so polite to pay attention to her words and to look at her when she spoke. Obviously, that was no issue.
He grinned when she said she was excited, "That's a good thing." he muttered those words to not stop her from talking. He raised his eyebrow when she explained she loved ice cream and went on and stopped talking. Now his own past had told him enough times about the hatred people had towards quirks but he never really thought so about it himself, the thing was because he had always on his own, he only got paid to do the dirty jobs and not really connected to anyone. "They should give you a thermos." He said casually when she got a little flustered about it and seemed to stress about the fact that she had said something that might have to remain a secret. But maybe he should not just remain so casually and be more honest to her that he did not mind at all. "To keep it cold I mean." He turned his eyes back to Lyra to make sure that she wasn't too nervous, "I really don't care that you have a quirk. I do care if people are hurtful to you because of that, it's really stupid and shallow."
He moved his hands through his blue hair and grinned a little while he looked at the ceiling, "Besides, who said I don't have one myself. Though it doesn't influence ice cream melting, it makes me grumpy in the afternoons, you know the perfect time for naps." He smiled at her and turned his blue eyes back to hers, "Though mine is transforming, I notice how much in daily life it influences me." Such as him hating rain so badly and the gold contact allergy.

The queue they were in moved up as the duo continued their talk. Lyra was pretty nervous as to what Akiva might say about her having a quirk and yet he didn't seem to bat an eye at her revelation. In fact, from watching his reaction it was almost as if it didn't matter at all that she had one. She let out a sigh of relief as he basically told her to relax and her eyes widened when he mentioned that he might have a quirk as well. It wasn't uncommon to see people with quirks, but it wasn't every day that she met someone who was as open with their own quirk as she was. She blushed slightly and took a small step forward as the line moved up once again.[break][break]
"So Akiva what kind of flavor are you looking at? she gestured to the board she already had an idea of what she wanted but there were truly too many options. "I'm between hmm...cotton candy blitz, chocolate strawberry, and the golden trio" they were all flavors she really wanted to try and given that she wasn't made of money she stared intently at the board showing a level of focus that might be overkill for something as simple as picking out a milkshake. "Oh!" she said breaking her concentration for a moment as she realized she never addressed it externally "You have a quirk like me?" she whispered the last put but couldn't help but hold in her excitement. It was like she and Akiva were destined to meet![break][break]

He followed her step forward as the queue moved forward and grinned at her while he looked at her from the corner of his eyes. He did not intend to make her nervous, but he did intend to take her scared feeling away because admitting something like that. He would not want to talk too much about the details of their quirk, especially not in a shop like this. To his anxious mind, it seemed that even the walls had ears but to his villainous mind it was just a challenge, come at him, he would finish it off and he should stop thinking like that. He rubbed his own knuckles while he had his hands on his back. But he could tell bits and bops to Lyra about his quirk, how he liked naps and how even though it made him transform, it definitely influenced his normal behaviour and he was glad to see that she looked less nervous about dropping the words about a quirk. People did not have to embarrassed for a gene or blood thing that they were born with, it mattered little to Akiva where it came from, the racism that just annoyed the crap out of him.
He turned to look where she looked, considering she pointed at the board. Right, how did he react on a lot of milk... would that make him more sleepy too? He raised his eyebrow at all the names on the list and muttered some of them... seriously? "There are too many flavours to make up my mind." His eyes staring at the board, not noticing she looked at him when she called out an oh, he thought she found a flavour she liked the most. Uuugh really what could he pick, but his ears heard her whisper very clearly and he turned towards her, though it was obviously that she whispered, his sharp hearing had to take a few seconds to realize she did. "Yes, well different but I have one." But how to tell, should he tell? How did people react to a ferocious animal? "And I think I would like the peanutbutter shake or the coffee one, I refuse to say that name." Dream of Coffee Milkshake, get out. He just smiled at her, "You must have bumped into judgmental people before when it comes to quirks?" He asked because he was rather curious to her behaviour. Surely they had made use of his quirk at military school but he had refused and had been too arrogant, too aggressive to actually train and he was feeling the results now.

She laughed at his comment of not saying the milkshake name as she couldn't help but think that it was kind of cute that he was putting on such a tough act. "Mhm Mhm!" she nodded enthusiastically at Akiva's comment about her meeting people who were judgemental or prejudice against quirk users. Surprisingly this was a much more recent occurrence for her as when she was back home in Greece she was well-liked and known for her quirk. This was most likely due to the belief in the gods in her hometown compared to Japan where quirks seemed to have much more...mixed reactions. It was definitely weird to see all the people who had quirks just walking around though![break][break]
"You know Japan really is amazing! I'm not actually from here if you couldn't tell," she said gesturing to some of her features that would rather clearly show that she was at least partly Caucasian. "There are so many more quirk users than I ever saw at home and they're especially open with it! You'd think there would be less comments but...I guess sometimes exposure can make people more ignorant huh?" it was kind of a loaded statement given that they were in a public place, but it held some truth to it nonetheless. Why were people in this area so off-put by quirkers in general? "...Maybe it's all the crime here.." she wasn't trying to make some sort of sweeping political statement just musing aloud. [break][break]
"Next!" the lady at the register was calling out to the two of them as Lyra was lost in her thoughts "Oh! I guess we're up, huh?" she took a step forward and without realizing what she was doing grabbed Akiva's hand and pulled him along with her, letting go once they were in front of the register "Hi! I would like...the chocolate strawberry please!" she gestured to her new friend "And whatever he's having as well! I received this coupon in the mail" she placed it down and awaited for Akiva to decide what he was going to get.

He liked how she laughed, god when was the last time someone laughed as he was around them. Maybe the world would always turn grump when he was around. He would not deny them, he would understand so and just her laugh, it felt so honest, so nice. So with that he just looked at her, from the corner of his eye, trying to keep up his tough act, trying to explain that she only met stupid people and she was agreeing, that was good. He turned his attention more to her when she said that Japan was amazing and he brushed through his blue hair, "Your Japanese is fine," He wasn't sure if she was proud of being not Japanese or not if she wanted to fit in or not so he kept his comment neutral. So that he couldn't hurt her or say something stupid. But yes, she looked different, maybe that's what made her even more interesting, and the fact that there were so many others now in Japan, he wasn't even sure of anything on his mind anymore. The fact that he had been abroad himself and just lost so many memories made it shit.
Instead of brushing through his hair, he scratched the back of his neck. "The dividing within this country is definitely confusing. I wish life would just be easier." He would have those stares when he figured out his quirk, his father's reaction and everything. He would just be fine and normal and he wanted that, normal. God it almost made him sound like he would hate his quirk, but he didn't. But he nodded, again looking away when Lyra mentioned crime. "I bet it's the type of villains." He did not want to think about it. He was sure it would be something horrible, horrible memories and thoughts that would roll over him. He did not plan to tell her, obviously. It jumped him out of his thought with the shrill sound of next and he stepped forward and looked at Lyra who took the stage. She was so pretty, her red hair like fire, would it wake him up and protect him? He shouldn't think about it, they probably never meet up again. "I would like the Coffee... dream." He rolled his eyes with the name but just ordered it anyway and gave a smirk to Lyra, cuz he had said so. This was going fine right.

With a big smile plastered on her face, Lyra took her change and moved to pick up side of the counter as she awaited her milkshake. Genuinely appreciative of Akiva's presence she realized at that moment that aside from her classmates at university she didn't really have any personal connections to anyone in this country. She would spend a lot of time talking to her parents, working her part time job, and just studying otherwise which really didn't give her much of a chance to socialize like this. "My mother always tells me that nothing worth having in life comes easy." she didn't mean anything in particular by this "And I think that when it comes to quirks tha-" she was interrupted by the call of her name for their order "Oh! That was pretty quick huh?" she gave a slight bow in thanks to the girl working the counter and turned to look for a good place to sit so they could keep talking[break][break]
"Hm. This place is pretty packed. Do you wanna walk and talk? With the sun setting it shouldn't be too hot out so we shouldn't have to worry about these melting! Or...at least you won't" she was trying to lighten the mood after their talks about quirks and given her brief explanation that she gives off heat sometimes. "I'm um...not familiar with the area actually. Truth be told I used my phones GPS to get here" she scratched the back of her head nervously "Perhaps you could lead the way? I've gotten nothing to do so I guess I'm in your care for the time being!" she was truly having fun and even if it meant she would need to take some transportation later it was well worth the effort.[break][break]

He followed Lyra without a second thought. He had never been to such places, that was simply because he had no time and no money for it. But now that he had work and someone to try it alongside with, and what kind of someone. Stop thinking so stupidly alright, be a man. But he liked how she smiled, he liked how she told him something she shouldn't tell people and panicked a little and he could shrug it off and still you know, impress her and like her. "She isn't entirely wrong but I think I would still appreciate a few things here or there from time to time without having to you know work too hard for it." Because too much of something wasn't good either. But he was okay, he was really glad he got that job at the bakery and everything with that, he was doing much better if he would allow to say so himself. She started saying something about quirks and he was curious but the person interrupted them by calling her name, funny to hear though and he stood closer to the bar to make them avoid saying his name, you know, just don't want to hear it being butchered or something. So he got it without a second thought or an uttering of a word that looked even close to his name. He gave the girl a grin behind the bar and a wink and turned to Lyra without a second thought about the girl that just gave him his milkshake.
He couldn't help but let out a chuckle when she suggested to go outside, "Sure, I have time." He still should think about what to do for Lilith but he wasn't sure at the point now if his thoughts could even fantom what it would be. His attention was only on Lyra and her interesting way of talking, without fear so it seemed. "We could maybe find a spot but lets, for now, walk around." He again managed to hold the door open for Lyra and just hoped her milkshake wouldn't become a disaster for her own sake. Eh if only he had an ice quirk at this point but he never really minded his panther side so he was okay. He turned his attention to her, like really looking her in her bright green eyes when she said she was in his care and didn't know the way. Wasn't that bad to say to a stranger? But he was a good stranger... okay stop thinking bad damaging thoughts. "Oh sure, you should see this, there is this funny little fountain where people drop their yen for good luck." He pointed to his left and almost grasped her hand to pull her along but he managed to grab a hold of himself and not do so and just pulled his hand back and started walking. The shopping centre in Musutafu was impressive and he liked it, maybe even more than Tokyo but he would stay there, with Lilith, until he finally could afford himself a place to live.

Lyra hummed happily to herself as Akiva held the door open for her. She sipped her milkshake and with a spring in her step walked alongside her new companion. He was nice, friendly, cute, and kind...wait cute?? she almost choked on her drink when she realized that she had developed a bit of a crush on him since meeting him. Perhaps it was all the romance novels and tv shows she'd been watching lately, but she found herself a bit smitten by him already.[break][break]
"Ooh a fountain? I would like to see and make a wish!" back home she lived close to the largest fountain in heraklion that a lot of tourists and travelers visited to wish for good luck. Before she could even ask which way it was she felt her hand being grabbed as he led her that way. Turning a deep red she didn't resist and in fact, grabbed his hand in return as they made their way over there. [break][break]
"It's really pretty!" she said flashing a smile to her friend. As she took out a coin she was about to throw it when the ground rumbled and she heard a scream behind them. Turning she saw that there was someone with a gigantification quirk harassing some ladies on the street. She knew what she had to do "Sorry Akiva! I need to run I'll um..." she quickly took out a pen and scribbled down her number, placing it in his hand, and waved and she turned and went to find somewhere secluded to change "Call me sometime! I had a good time hanging out with you!"

Didn't they have fountains in whenever she come from? Because if they did, ha look at him being all nice and working hard to show her things she might like and god he was still being stupid. He tried to hold his head high only to realize he had grabbed her hand so there was no use for this. He thought to himself not to do it and then did it anyway, it was dumb. She would just have to come along now, not get lost, yea that was the only reason why he took her hand. They would arrive not too late and he would almost already finish his milkshake, he felt like a brain freeze coming on but that was cuz he kept nervous sipping on the straw cuz he wasn't used to this. Surely he had girlfriends, friends, girls, but he hadn't tried something like this. Trying not to harm her, trying to be nice. How did he work that out with the previous boyfriend he had. God he couldn't think and besides this was his first meeting with Lyra, calm down.
He crossed his arms, sipped his milkshake as she seemed to be excited and looking for Yen. He couldn't help but take a step closer to her to see how she would look when throwing it so casually in when the floor started to move and the unconscious smile wiped from his face. Really.... today of all days? He almost turned on his heel to watch where the scream came from and what happened when Lyra already turned his attention with his name. He had only seen in the corner of his eyes that there was a giant someone harassing the ladies, of which one screamed. "But-eh." He tried to stop her, he could stop this asshole and get back on his... whatever this was and turned to look at the paper in his hand and just took a deep breath.
With a smooth turn, he turned to the man ruining his day, that is if you wanted to call that a man. "Ey buddy." He trashed his empty milkshake carton and glared with intense anger at the pervert. "I think a scream means no." Why would he run around and tell him in panther form, no he was angry, he would show this prick. Besides he didn't have to immediately transform he could be partial, so his hand changing into what looked like a black glove when he punched with quite a bit of power against this man. "So get going alright." And he looked shortly at the three girls standing there, huddled together. He gave a polite nod, grinned, said "Hello ladies." before turning his attention to the man again, playing time...
