[straying]

[At first, she's quiet for a little while. She opens her mouth as if she knew what to say before but now that the camera's rolling, she's second-guessing it. And so there's a pause before she starts talking.]

Matthew's gone.

[... and she looks a little confused, as if she never expected to say those words. They sound so foreign.]

... sheesh. Can he ever leave without causing me problems?

Well, now you know.

[A bit of a shrug and she ends the feed.]

[after a small breath, he managed a bright smile. he should try and be more cheerful, it'll just make it worse, otherwise.]

Let's go out! It's been a while, after all.

I'm still here for you, Saya.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Awww, lighten up. I was kidding.

[And at that... she blanks on an answer for a bit. No one's ever told her that directly.]

Still... here for me, huh? [After repeating it slowly like it was in French, she laughs.]

Alright. Let's go out. Have a place in mind or are we going anywhere, Red?

[pristinestar.livejournal.com]

[always here for you! and he's rather pleased right now when she accepted the invitation.]

... Okay! How about if we go out and eat somewhere?

Do you like ice cream, Saya?

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[... third person to offer her ice cream, Red. But she just laughs.]

Love the stuff and can't get enough of it. Where should I meet you?

[pristinestar.livejournal.com]

[... wow, he's totally oblivious to it.]

Really? Great!

How about the plaza? I'm free anytime, so...

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

Well, my schedule's all clear now.

[She's kind of realizing how often she was with Matthew before he left and would like to get away from that thought.]

Meet you there in ten?

[pristinestar.livejournal.com]

Okay, Saya... I'll be there.

[he waved at her quietly before turning the transmission off and heading to the said plaza to wait~]

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[And so she also cuts off her end with a click! Hopping buildings to get to the location, she meets up with him rather quickly.]

Heya. Hope you weren't sitting around too long?

[pristinestar.livejournal.com]

[he smiled out when Saya arrived, then shook his head gently]

Not at all... That was pretty fast, actually.

[and with a proper greeting-] Hello again.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[A quirk of her eyebrow before she laughs.]

Hello to you, too.

Alright then, let's go grab some ice cream~?

[pristinestar.livejournal.com]

Yes...!

[... but what's this? there's a second voice that agreed with her.

"Pika!"

it came from Red's feet.]

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[At that, she jumps a little. Reflexively looking left and right for the source before looking down and--]

Awwwwww!

[what is that, it's so cute, she doesn't even-]

[pristinestar.livejournal.com]

["Pi!", Pikachu decided to wave at Saya~]

Oh... Right. You haven't met.

This is...

["Pika-Pikachu~"]

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[A bit of a laugh and she offers her hand to Pikachu.]

It's very nice to meet you then, 'Pika-Pikachu'.

[pristinestar.livejournal.com]

[Pikachu tumbled a little at her small mistake ;; "Pikaa, pika-pi!"

but shortly, he raised his paw and placed it unto Saya's hand.

Red laughed a bit.]

It's Pikachu, actually.

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[And she laughs in response.]

Oh, my bad. Then it's very nice to meet you, Pikachu.

[She shakes his paw. So cute, aaahhhhhh.]

[pristinestar.livejournal.com]

["Pika-pika~ Pi!", Pikachu shook his paw along~

afterwards, he bounced up and sat on Saya's shoulder.]

He said that it's nice to meet you, too...

[sweeperesque.livejournal.com]

[A grin and reaching up a hand to pet Pikachu, though she's quite at home with him on his shoulder.]

Well then, here's to hoping for a nice, long friendship!
