Eriko took the offered cup from Hide at first and gave her a funny look with a tilt of her head. "Look forward, now? Look forward, nothing! Come here..."

She stepped forward and this time took Hide's hand as she began to drag her off with her.

/fade to breakfast...

"We're going out for breakfast," Eriko said very decisively on the matter. "I'm already up on my feet and walking around. It looks very much like we're going for breakfast. I just have to hit the shower, get dressed, and do my face...after all that's done, hopefully, it won't be lunch yet and we're ...

"I'm a pretty simple girl, thankfully, nothing too fanciful or top self. I usually appreciate something that at least gives me some pep in my step." She smirked as clearly saw the hue on Hide's face. "I think I'm generally a fan of genmaicha, or anything dark otherwise. Coffee is always good too, ob...

If Hide was going to offer a hug, Eriko was gladly going to take it. "I'm not upset or anything! I was just going down the path of completely justifying myself. You're good, I know even if your mouth is stupid sometimes, your brain is still very smart," she winked at her and gave her a quick kiss.

"Hah, I think I'm getting the gist of why Yakumo-sama had a few questions for me when we first met," she chuckled on that note. "That's awfully kind of you to offer to educate Koyuki-san on your fame as a celebrity. I'd imagine that many celebrities would have been glad to move on with their lives a...

"No, they did see us there on purpose and then we left coincidentally when everyone's attention was on the climax of the match. They'd ID us there and not sneaking off in the night, it was a pretty good plan." She said confidently on the matter. It was her plan, after all! She pursed her lip as she ...

Eriko laughed at that idea. "I can most certainly say that when I was a Kuni, when Kuni run into another Kuni, it's always an unexpected and unplanned surprise. We're hardly anything like the Scorpion in that regard but we just find a way to coincidentally be in the same place at the same time. Seei...

"The Delinquent Club," Eriko corrected her with a faint smile. "I guess they are pretty lucky to have me, even if I kind of ditched that show on Asakaze for another reason but I guess I could have hatched the alibi-and-sneaking-out plan without being in the audience. The fact that I was there meant ...

Eriko narrowed her eyes on her for a moment before hassling herself to sit up finally. "I don't know what you're implying, lady...but I've been a Delinquent Club fan for a few years now. That was back when they had other members before they did their own thing. Well, Hiruma Kazuo is still kicking ar...

"Fiiiine," she would say reluctantly on the matter, her wife doing a good job of twisting her arm on the matter.

She would accept her hand and give her a faint smile. "Okay, now that I'm throughout embarrassed for agreeing to this, how do I go about this and where do we start?"

"Admittedly, it was a number of things that got me to that mood and not just the lack of tea. It was a punching every object in the hallway kind of day. Sometimes a person ends up looking very much like a vending machine or a trashcan along the way. Not my fault, just an honest mistake! Kind of wish...

"Me? Oh, funny enough, I was on a sort of a lunch between office duties over at the embassy. I had stopped over at Tian to grab a bit of bubble tea and Koyuki-san walked over to me to have a chat. Funny enough, Hide made mention of me and I suppose there weren't that many face-paint-wearing Lion aro...

It seemed like the best time for Eriko to make some joke that some jerk named Gorou almost stole her away from the miai but that was less of a shipping crash and a literally kidnapping where she could have died if the True Scions were successful... "No, drama! Just action!" Eriko chuckled it off. "....

“Awwwww… Not even a slow dance where we barely move and are holding onto each other tight?” Hide couldn’t help but be a little mischievous about the whole dancing bit. Of course, the show must go on, so she lifted her mic to the air. “Who wants to go next, party people?” If Koyuki refused to sing, ...

Eriko nodded soundly at that, pleased they had a mutual understanding on that matter. "Some people do make the darnest choices, especially being put on the spot like that. I guess the possibility that we could have been spending out days wrangling otori or managing a harvest of mushrooms right now t...

Eriko laid on her side with one elbow propping herself up. "I'm pretty sure that breakfast, rice, noodles..." She narrowed her eyes as she tried to think of something else that was in abundance around here. "...Air is going to run out sooner than tea being gone around here. I made sure to stock this...

Eriko gave a wide blink at the question with a momentary glance at both Yakumo and Koyuki, wondering if this was the best time to pop such a question in front of another not-couple date. She straightened in her seat after a small sip of her glass. "You were my first choice, Hide." She said as a matt...

Eriko would grin at Hide as she got into the song. Oh, she knew that she wasn't getting outdone but perhaps pleasant that she was able to join her on this rendition to make it fun...or at least tolerable. "Ah-ah-trouble maker!" She would finish off the song so that others could have time with the ma...

It might have been the drink or it might have been her being rusty in her rendition, or maybe she wasn't she wasn't used to her particular part. But Eriko...was not great and she might have realized this halfway to her singing before she just merely defaulted to the familiar chorus. That was the eas...

Eriko smiled sheepishly on that note and moved to face her on the bed. She gave her a quick peck on the lips and grinned. "Sorry, I guess I'm just being a bit grouchy for not having my morning tea either. But you have the best idea for it: Why not both? We're going to need all that sushi and then so...
