[ Wah ... Miss Maya, so forward ... 😳 Rom does end up giving a surprised blink when she hooks arms like that, but -- hm. It's fine, he guesses? Off they go! ]

Mostly just snacks, I see.

[ Mumbled to himself as he looks at the stall's menu. ]

Do you know what you'd like, Amano-san?

[scooptimistic]

How do you feel about popcorn?

[ Honestly this is really mostly snacks, just like he said. Even though she didn't hear that part. ]

[phenomerom]

Popcorn sounds -- [ Pause and a slight squint as one of the monster trucks revs extremely loudly. ] -- sounds like a fine choice. How about the, ah ... nachos, as well?

[ He's not even that hungry. He just picked the most expensive thing they have to cost the production team a bit more and annoy them. ]

[scooptimistic]

Nachos sounds great to me too! Okay! We can share both of those.

[ Perfect date food!! ]

[phenomerom]

Perfect. That too, then, please.

[ He has to lean past Maya when he places the order, speaking loudly to be heard over the din. And as he waits for the staff member to toss together the food, he leans in real close to Maya to, once again, make himself heard: ]

Shall we find a better vantage point now? Or maybe find someplace quieter.

[scooptimistic]

Quieter--!! Sounds good!!

[ She also apparently doesn't mind proximity, but she does point up and out. ]

I thought I saw a grassy knoll not too far from here!

[phenomerom]

Wonderful!

[ Yeah he definitely perked up a little bit at the agreement that they head somewhere quiet. Enough that, once he's handed the popcorn over to her and also grabbed his own order of nachos, he holds his arm out so she can hook his arm again if she wants??? ]

Please lead the way, then.

[scooptimistic]

[ Hooking her arm around his, because yes! Fun!!

Off they go!! And sure enough, there's that grass knoll they mentioned and-- ]

Oh, it's so much easier to hear now!!

[phenomerom]

It certainly is, isn't it.

[ He's trying to be subtle about it, but that big dumb top hat he's always wearing makes it kind of obvious that he's shaking his head to clear his thoughts as they make they away from the noise. ]

I can't say I've ever been anywhere like this before ... I suppose it's a novel experience.

[scooptimistic]

Are you more of a "quiet nature spot" kind of guy, or more like an "urban stroll" kind of guy?

[ Time to be a journalist-- ]
