[It wasn’t difficult to find Maruki, though it did take her a bit of time to remember the way to Kuchel’s. She had only been once, during their grand opening, and the times since had left her too busy to come back. If Chise had known that sort of thought, the lack of preserving his privacy, had run through Maruki’s head, she would have chosen someplace quieter. The most important thing to her was that he was out of the house… and looked mostly fine?]
[The redhead waved back in greeting, nodding. Unable to get a verbal reply out till she had gotten her own cup of tea and made her way to the table, with how crowded it was. She smiled as she sat across from him.]
It isn’t nonsense - you’re working on your notes, right? [The look she gave him was both fond and curious. She remember the way he had written back at Lake Omen, all that time ago. When they had seen pieces of each other’s past. For now though, they could start small. This wasn’t a therapy session - just two friends talking.] Are you doing alright?
[That question came before anything. Mentioning the notes had been a small distraction, a way out if Maruki needed it, but Chise was also aware that someone’s physical appearance wasn’t the most honest indicator of someone’s health. Not always.]
EEEE thank you! <3
