  Millie was a nervous wreck, as evident by the fact that she played with the healing cut on her bottom lip. Still healing from the punishment she took nearly two weeks ago, Millie tried to hide every cut and bruise with makeup. She had spent hours the night before learning how to properly put on makeup, even calling a friend of hers through Skype to try and help her. She knew nothing about being a "girlie girl". She had been raised as an only child, who played sports growing up. The most she knew how to do was slap on some lip gloss and she was good, trying to actually look nice and professional, forget it. The blue eyed woman squirmed in her seat as she played a Deal or No Deal game. The only reason she even looked remotely nice today was because of the date she had. Another reason to be nervous. Was she betraying Esmee? How could that be possible when they weren't even a couple? Millie was just far to infatuated with the witch to think anything else when it came to certain intimate things. Like, what if she found out she was going on a date? Would Esmee get mad?
An icy finger came up to twirl through a piece of cotton white hair both in habit and contemplation. Crystal blue hues flickered behind her glasses as she watched the screen light up and the music play to her game. While she wasn't even really into the game much, using it to pass time, she was able to win 15 tickets from it. Spinning around in her seat, tugging the tickets from the dispenser, Millie got up and made her way to the bathroom. Nerves were getting to her causing her to feel like she needed to go more frequently. Folding her tickets as she made her way down the hall that led to the bathroom, she fell against the large wooden door and pushed it open with her shoulder. Sighing heavily as she shuffled herself in front of the giant mirror that spanned the counter, Millie looked at herself in the mirror and noticed she had smudged nearly all of her makeup! Not used to wearing it, she had absentmindedly rubbed at it with her fingers whenever she felt an itch, or chewed her lip out of nervousness! Grabbing a paper towel, she dampened one corner and began cleaning herself up so she didn't look like a homeless mess!
Shoving her tickets into her back pocket, more out of habit, she made her way back onto the gaming floor and to the concession stand. She needed something to drink because this place full of electricity buzzing and warm bodies felt like it was pulling the moisture right out of her. A simple large cup of Coke and she was ready for another round of games while she waited for her date. Thankfully they were meeting here where she could loosen up a little and not be stiff as a board the entire time.

How odd to be looking for a date when you were already taken with another. It was something interesting about the Terrans....how curiously they were trying to avoid their love for others. He would never understand it, but he wouldn't hold it against his date. The alien wasn't going expecting anything but to make a friend and that was enough for the Arcturian. He made sure to look nice, as none threatening as he could. He wasn't quite used to casual attire so he picked one of the various suits he owned. It was important to look nice right?
He made sure to keep hold of his pager in the event the hospital needed his services and his "suitcase" in the event something happened and then...he set out. He covered himself a psychic sheen to protect himself from the rain and wings, making his way to the arcade to meet his date...Millie it seemed her name was. He would need to loosen up a bit though it had been some time since he did so. No since that party that he had somehow ended up attending. It would be nice to actually make some manner of contact since it wasn't like he actually had any. Contact here was fleeting, a fact he wasn't too fond of when it came to life on Earth. Arcturians were generally friendly and tended to connect outright but here? It was possible to see someone once and then forget them.
No matter, it was time to focus. He would get there eventually and wander in, taking in the smells and various thoughts that would rush at him. He closed his eyes trying to adjust to the new sensations....a problem with being an empath and a telepath. These things hit him full on anytime he went anywhere, he felt it all the time...so it took a little time. He looked about, his neon eyes scanning the area for his date. He wasn't sure what she looked like just that she was supposed to be here. He figured he'd try to find out if she was here, holing out a card with the details of the date he began to ask around if they saw someone who looked like she was waiting for a date, and a card even going up to a woman who appeared to be playing games, surrounded by a somewhat nervous energy.
He held out the card hoping to get her attention. His psychic thoughts were being broadcast allowing those who were open to pick it up I'm looking for a woman. Ms. Rogers, I'm her date for the day. and hopefully catch the woman herself.

Millie had left the concession stand and made her way back over to the arcade games. If she allowed herself to stand, she would look like she was doing the bathroom dance when really she was just nervous to meet someone new. Sliding into a stool, her eyes danced around the colorful Mrs. Pac-Man screen as she sipped away at her soda. Setting the cup onto the arcade machine, Millie leaned over to push a token into the machine and tugged at the collar of her sweater. Perhaps it would have been a good idea to wear a shirt underneath, she was starting to get a little warm surrounded by buzzing machines. While it was extremely chilly outside, requiring such attire, inside it was warmer than she had originally thought. Sitting back up, she rolled up her sleeves and waited for the game to start.
About to beat the fourth level of Mrs. Pac-Man, Millie felt a sharp chill run up her spine causing her to jerk the joystick in the wrong direction and get Mrs. Pac-Man eaten. What was that feeling!? Visibly shaking from the cold feeling, despite always being cold, the socially awkward woman cursed and slammed a hand down on the game in frustration. She had never fully beaten the game and she was always determined to try every time she played. Taking a moment from the game, not inserting a new coin in right away, the bluenette looked around. Spinning the stool around too, Millie jumped slightly when she finally noticed someone was standing just on the outskirts of her personal bubble. They were just slightly to one side so she hadn't noticed them at first!
'Ms. Rogers?' Millie thought in confusion. She wasn't a Ms, she barely considered herself a Miss. Then again, she had a very poor image of herself and also considered such a polite use of prefix out of reach for herself. Shakily she raised her hand, unsure of what she was really doing. "That's me, I guess..." she replied softly, her voice clearly full of a nervous tone. "Ju-Juuuuuuuuust call me Millie th-though," she added, saliva getting caught in her throat for a split second. Crystal eyes scanned the clearly taller man up and down. She would probably barely come up to his collar bone! "So you're...Zeevan? I'm pretty sure I butchered that badly," she asked, unsure of how to properly say his name.

Xeven was happy to have found her and offered a reassuring smile, the type he'd give a friend as he gently took her hand and shook it. A common enough greeting as she had kindly raise her own though the tone in her voice was nervous, unsure. He was unsure if it was because of the voice, the situation, or his look but he focused on the name It is nice to meet you Millie. he offered in return, his tone of voice confident, soothing, and overall friendly. No need to make it strange, blind date or not they could get along well enough.
He silently chucked at her attempt to say his name Zeh-van if it helps, but if you prefer my Earthling name is Doctor James Laird.So you can call me James if you desire. he informed her pulling out a car with his information at the hospital revealing himself as its head doctor. He would allow her to keep it if she wished, but if not he would return it to his pocket as he looked around the place. An arcade was a nice venue, atmosphere was nice though he was still unsure of his dates condition. He nodded to her What shall we do first? I do look forward to getting to know you.
He did note he looked very out of place in his rather official attire but he figured it looked nice enough to make a positive impression for his date. Friendships were pretty important after all.

Mood: Nervously excited
Where: The Mushroom Kingdom | With: Nobody | $$: 995$ | Wearing: Outfit
••••••••••♥••••••••••
"Haha, yes! I got it!" Releasing a loud, excited cheer, the young Korean woman flung herself back from the crane machine. Her brown eyes watched with anticipation, watching as the large crane released the toy and dropped it down below to where she could retrieve it. Shifting herself down until she was kneeling onto the dirty arcade floor, Kisa giggled happily to herself as she pushed the little door open and pulled out her prize.
Yeah, sure, she had wasted at least five dollars on attempting to get this silly looking thing. But! She could have been more preoccupied on any of the other games located in The Mushroom Kingdom. As much as she was dying to get her hands on some Tekken, on one of the various racing games, she had to hold herself back. She wasn't here for her own enjoyment, nope. She had a date. A blind date, but a date no less. The crane machine at least helped her to calm her nerves just a little. Never in a million years would the young twenty-one year old have expected to have a date on her first day in Soleil. Wait until her mother heard! Then again, her mother was the type to quickly jump into asking when she would be bringing any potential relationships over to meet her, when they planned to move in, get married, etc.
She could try to keep this little blind date to herself, for now. Besides, she wasn't looking for love just yet. If this mysterious stranger became a new friend, well, that was all Kisa needed right now.
Before she could let her thoughts dwell any longer on what might go down with this blind date, her eyes were already zeroing in on another potential prize. A lamb, looking soft to the touch. It looked like the best snuggling buddy, and the woman was already shoving her hand into the pocket of her jeans to try and decipher just how much money she'd be spending this time in the hope's of winning such a prize. It seemed already, that her incoming date was forgotten as she took quick steps over to the crane machine that she had her eyes on. |

◔ " I tried it once before and I think I might have messed up
I struggled with the veins and I guess I didn't bleed enough
Most days started out the same, waking up, having a shower, eating a meal, arguing with yourself, working on your next master piece, even having an existential crisis only for it to clear up by the time you needed to be ready and out the door for a blind date. That was just a minor alteration from what Atticus' morning routine was. However, it started much different this time around. The morning was pleasant, his voice was quiet, AND he had gotten some decent sleep. Today was looking up for the usually bitter man.
Even as he spent most of his afternoon in the arcade, brushing up on his gaming skills, partaking in a quick PvP game of Halo that ultimately ended with him being in third; he would begin to feel the panic of soon meeting his date. He didn't know what he was going to expect- someone who would just label him a freak right off the bat? Most people within the first 3 minutes of meeting someone already had their assumption of what they were going to expect. He HOPED that he wouldn't be a total freak within that span- he however would take painfully awkward above anything. Kerberous always mentioned to him that Atticus always filled in an awkward presence, like he was always uncomfortable in whether it be his own skin, or the situation. But, his personal goal was to not make that the case when he finally met up with his date.
Standing before a much more vintage game now with little ships flying across the screen shooting at more smaller ships, Atticus quickly reached reached into his pocket and pulled out a handful of change before stuffing a few coins into the slot. The melody would ring and SPACE INVADERS would flash across the screen before it would begin. Any other sound would fade into the background with the man's full attention on the classic game.
"Maybe you should, you know... attempt to find your date? Rather than blowing all of your money on frugal things." The voice came snide, but with an attempt of being endearing for once. The demonic entity knew that Atticus was trying to better himself and not be a complete ******** up- especially for today. Without so much as a vocal response, Atticus rolled his eyes before finishing his last life, only to miraculously make it on to the leader board, right underneath one other name. Leaving his own name with the first four letters available, he turned away from it to face the figure of himself that had formed behind him; completely invisible to the other patrons of the arcade, "Perhaps you're right..." The man would respond to the demon without uttering a verbal word.
"Perhaps you should get her something? Girls tend to like that." Atticus would furrow his brow at the suggestion. The demon did have a point but... what would she even like? His gaze shifted over the various games and onward through the cluster of people, looking for ideas until he eyes laid upon a crane machine with various plush within. Sauntering over her looked about the crane for any sort of plush that would suit for a gift. He neglected to see the woman who hurriedly made her way over as he slipped a few dollars in and begun to play. Shifting the claw from side to side and across the machine, he narrowed his eyes at a one of the plush- a bright yellow bird- then looked up to the crane as he nudged the controller ever so slightly before dropping it down. It would appear he moved just too much to the right as it closed over nothing, or so it would seem until it pulled up and actually caught it barely by the tag!
Feeling a wave of relief as he reached down to the door to retrieve his prize. The tag read in bright red writing; "Chocobo". Final Fantasy was always one of Atticus' top picks to play. Always had a compelling story with a great plot- admittedly often left him a sobbing mess, but that was besides the point. His attention would turn hearing foot steps coming closer to him, to see a shorter girl approaching him with what he assumed to be determination, "Oh s**t- by bad..." Just as he stepped out of the way for the girl to take his place, the air caught in his lungs and a lump grew in the middle of his throat. The girl was... rather cute. The man always had a thing for shorter individuals, and as it stood she was just above his chest in height. Realizing that he had been staring rather longer than intended, she shook his head and blinked a few times as he stood looking blankly at the claw machine.

Mood: Distracted by a cutie
Where: The Mushroom Kingdom | With: Tall stranger | $$: 995$ | Wearing: Outfit
••••••••••♥••••••••••
With her most recent prize tucked under her arm, the woman had given pause at first when a male, taller than her, had moved over to the crane machine she had been making her way over. At first, her cheeks puffed out at the fact she would have to wait now, but, her mind had to remind her that this was a public location. There were other people currently playing games and winning prizes here, so she couldn't let one person ruin her mood. Instead, she tilted her head to peer around him, trying to identify what he may be going for.
As the crane dropped, Kisa felt herself draw in a sharp breath as it looked like the claws had grabbed around nothing. As it slowly began to lift, she held her breath, wondering if he would give up or try again. But, it seemed that the machine's claw had just barely grabbed onto the tag for the plush. Feeling her own excitement grow on the fact he had gotten something, her quick footsteps resumed as she made her way to stand near the machine.
"Hey, great job!" She happily spoke, her eyes trained onto the yellow bird as he carefully pulled it out. It wasn't until he fully stood to his full height did her brown eyes move away from the stuffed toy and up to look at the male's face. As he spoke what sounded like a form of apology, the girl shook her head, a smile on her face. "It's fine. I'm waiting on someone anyways, so I'm in no rush."
He was no longer looking at her, his eyes now focused blankly onto the machine he stoll stood in front of. She didn't want to be rude and ask him to move, and the Chocobo plush he held onto may not even be the item he had been going for. Pursing her lips, Kisa's gaze slowly scanned the nearby machines to see if she could find something else to play for the meantime. She didn't think he'd mind her hovering around while he played again, and if her date arrived, she didn't know what they'd think when they saw her with someone else.
Then again, she would have to have some Guardian Angel watching over her if this stranger just so happened to be her blind date. Guys taller than her were certainly a turn on for her, and she had an urge to brush her fingers through those soft looking locks. If only she could get a longer look of his face without being seen as some weirdo. |

◔ " I tried it once before and I think I might have messed up
I struggled with the veins and I guess I didn't bleed enough
Looking at her almost quizzically at first when she had mentioned she was waiting for someone, he almost blurted out if she had been waiting for a date as well- what a long shot that would be. The world would small, but he couldn't imagine it being that much of a convenience, little had he any idea however that was just the case. Disregarding it however as he stepped in front of the machine again to slip in another few coins, Atticus scanned the machine a few more times trying to see exactly what to go for next.
"That one looks... Cute? Is that what you humans call animals?" The voice came again. Atticus furrowed his brow at the comment trying to understand what one Kerberous had been trying to call out, "The soft looking one- white? With hooves?" Atticus rolled his eyes to himself, "You mean the lamb?" Kerberous let out a frustrated snort, "If that's what you call it." Atticus nodded to himself as he lined up the crane once more before pressing the button to send it down.
Feeling the lingering presence of the girl as she hovered around the machine, Atticus felt compelled once more to ask her if she was waiting for a blind date. The worst this that she could respond with was no- right? If that was the case the man would move on to do something else until his date ultimately stood him up. His attention then was dragged back to the crane as it missed the lamb, drawing back up with an empty claw. Swallowing the lump in his throat, Atticus threw in a few more coins and attempted again, hopefully the woman hadn't noticed that his attention had turned to her for a brief moment before hand.
Lining up the claw once more, Atticus sent it down at a much better angle. Slipping down underneath the lamb and passed it, Atticus swore under his breath, only for it to real back up and catch it by the leg. Relief fell over the man once more as he slouched relaxing his muscles before leaning down to retrieve the lamb, now holding two plushies, one under each arm. Turning to the girl as she seemed to be look at him, his breath caught in his throat as he offered an awkward smile before moving the lamb into his left arm to run a hand through his hair, "Hey, so.... this is going to sound a little weird..." He started, "You're.... not possibly waiting for.... a blind date, are you?" He asked, trying to be as casual as possible.

Mood: A little disappointed
Where: The Mushroom Kingdom | With: Tall stranger | $$: 995$ | Wearing: Outfit
••••••••••♥••••••••••
As her gaze scanned the nearby machines, the sound of coins being slid into the slot and the crane machine's music starting back up had her attention returning onto the male. Folding her hands behind her back, Kisa chewed on the inside of her cheek as her eyes followed the jerky and wobbling movements of the claw. From the pause between movements, she could tell he wasn't sure just yet what to go for. She could understand, there were a lot of options, and you always had to calculate if there was enough room to even grab one.
Wondering what he could be going for now, Kisa's head tilted, watching the claw drop. Eyes widening as she took notice to what he seemed to be going for, the girl was just a tad relieved when it didn't grab onto the plush toy that she had had her sights on.
Her relief was short lived, as the white haired male was sliding more coins into the machine and moving the claw with purpose now. Pressing her fingernails into her palm, she watched as that soft lamb was scooped up into the claws grip and carried over to the corner where it was deposited. Sure, it would be easy to search the internet for that identical stuffed toy, and without the hassle of playing a game with a chance that she'd never get it. But, she was still a little let down that she wouldn't be able to try now.
Hoping that her disappointment wasn't obvious on her face, Kisa jerked a little when he was looking down at her. Blinking as she gazed up at his face, a soft tinge of pink spread across her cheeks as he offered her a smile. If she had to be honest, she wasn't fully paying attention to his words as she let her eyes take in every tiny detail of his handsome face. By the time she seemed to realize he had been asking her something, she only focused back enough to catch him saying blind date.
"Huh?" Embarassed at the fact that she might have just missed something important, Kisa's face only grew redder. "He's bailing on me, isn't he? He realized that this blind date wasn't worth it, and sent over his really attractive friend to tell me that he's not coming. Right?" Quick to assume that this was the case, Kisa's shoulders slumped with the thought that her blind date was already over before it began. Taking in a deep breath and holding it there for a minute or two, her head slowly bobbed in a nod.
Alright. Fine. She wasn't going to let one failed date ruin this day. She was at the arcade, surrounded by various games she had played, or never played. She would enjoy the rest of her time there, and then when she got home she could pout. "Well, thanks for letting me know." |

Seeing the visible distraught on her face had the man wondering if he had said something a little too out of place. However, it was easily deduced as he glanced down to the lamb in his arm. She must have wanted it? Noticing the soft pink that crossed her cheeks, the man stiffened. Something within him would have compelled him to reach out to her and stroke her cheek-if that had been a social norm, but once she responded to him, he briefly glanced away from her. He was obviously staring and did little to hide it. Even as Kisa's cheeks darkened further he could hardly keep his gaze from it.
"I uhm..." Bailing on her? Good lord, no. Atticus was more than lucky if this was his date. The man didn't date- or rather never really made the attempt given his circumstance and being a bit... rusty in the scene. The man sucked in an audible breath at the mention of really attractive friend. Maybe... that was just the sort of confidence boost he needed. Certainly gave him the impression that he didn't bring a terrible feel to the air in the room. Atticus smiled at this regardless and even chuckled softly, "Quite the opposite really." Still holding his smile even as she continued the negative thought of her date bailing on her. He wondered if something like that had happened before- being bailed on was always... upsetting to say the least.
"I'm Atticus, I believe you might be the one I'm here to meet." He chuckled softly as he held the lamb out to her, "This is for you." He thought back for a moment, " 'really attractive friend', huh?" He teased, a half smirk even toying at his lips, "You're quite the cutie yourself. Can't imagine what sort of loser would even think to bale on you." Sure, blind dates were trivial, but they had an excitement to them. "Tread lightly. I'm sure you have some idea about how to be a normal person- try not to be too much of a freak." Atticus took the words with heavy consideration, and even pondered it for a brief second. He came to the conclusion that bringing up the lingering voice in his head would be something for not some time.

••••••••••♥••••••••••
Besides feeling let down about her blind date ending before it had even began, Kisa was just a little relieved that it hadn't upset her enough to start crying in front of this stranger. Reaching up, her fingers dabbed at her eyes just in case she had begun to cry, and just hadn't noticed. Luckily enough though, her eyes were dry of any potential tears. As she braced herself to apologize to him, sure he was wasting his time coming out to deliver a message for his friend, but before she could, he was speaking again.
Introducing himself to her, Kisa's eyes widened as he told her that he was her blind date. Well, her date wasn't bailing on her. On the contrary, the attractive male standing before her was the one she had been set up with. Slowly taking the plush that was offered out to her, Kisa's fingers pressed into the soft material. She was right, this was probably the softest toy she owned. Surprising, since it may have been sitting in that machine for months. "Thank you."
Being reminded of the fact she had called him attractive. Out loud! Yeah, that only made her feel more embarassed then she felt being caught not paying attention to his words. A dark blush covered her face, the offered toy being brought up in an attempt to hide away her reddened face. "Oh my goodness... I said that out loud." She whined, closing her eyes. Could the ground please swallow her up now before she said anything else embarassing?
The young woman didn't think her face could get any more red as he called her cute. She pressed the plush lamb even closer to her face, rocking a little on her feet. Now that the blind date had officially.. Started? What was she suppose to do next? As she slowly lowered the lamb from her face, she couldn't find herself able to look up at him. Instead, soft brown orbs focused on his shoes. "I'm Kisa." She softly murmured, voice barely above a whisper. |

Keeping his gaze on her as she seemed to be going through an interesting process of realization that he was her date. He kept his smile as she took the plush lamb from him before pulling his hand back and shoving it into the pocket of his pants. Perhaps he should have eased into telling her that he was her blind date- maybe that would have made it a little easier.... and a tad less uncomfortable? Was that the word for it? The man was surprisingly doing well at keeping his own cool for once in his life. With Kerberous at bay and being little more than a soft murmur every so often, Atticus felt this to be a accomplishment.
"It's alright. I'm not bothered by it." He reassured her with a light chuckle. She was definitely quite the cute one. Admittedly her reddened face and soft tone that she spoke in made it all the better. Grey eyes watched her as she raised the lamb up to her face, even cocking an eyebrow in curiosity only to watch it being lowered once again, yet she still didn't look at him. People needed time to warm up to one another, this was no exception. "It's nice to meet you, Kisa." He held his hand out to her for a moment before slightly withdrawing it, "Or... Are you more of a hug person?" He briefly extended out his arms then froze. "You're reading into it too much, real it back." Atticus' eyes darted from her to the ground then back to her, "Suggest something else.... dumbass." Atticus' fingers fidgeted for a moment before he cleared his throat, "You.... You want to play some... MarioKart?" He managed, "Then... maybe some lunch?"

Where: The Mushroom Kingdom | With: Atticus | $$: 995$ | Wearing: Outfit
••••••••••♥••••••••••
He wasn't saying anything. Why wasn't he saying anything?! Instead of wishing for the ground to swallow her up, she almost wanted to turn and run out of the arcade before this meeting became even worse. Could it become worse? Knowing her, most likely.
While his words were trying to reassure her that he wasn't bothered, she still had doubt that he was being truthful. She'd been nothing but an embarrassment before they were even sure that they were there for each other, and her thoughts were almost sure that he was regretting the decision to come out here. Or maybe he was cursing that dating app for setting them up onto this blind date. Slowly, her head lifted, teeth tugging on her bottom lip as she watched him offer his hand out to her.
Before she could even try to grab for it, he was withdrawing his hand. Next, he was asking if she was more the type for hugs. Watching him extend his arms out, Kisa was halfway tempted to step into the empty space and return the hug. Yeah, sure, she was a hugger. But, it may have been just a tad awkward to go out and hug someone that was still basically a stranger. Names or not, she still knew nothing of Atticus. "Um..."
He seemed frozen, eyes shifting between her and the ground. Maybe she should say something? Opening her mouth, her words collided with his own as they both spoke at the same time. "Maybe we should play a game.. or something?"
She had to register that he had suggested something as well, her hands shuffling the two toys she held as she slowly nodded her head. He had mentioned Mario Kart. That could work, right? It was a game she was familiar with, and maybe it would end this.. weirdness aura that seemed to gather around the two of them. "Yeah, definitely. Mario Kart sounds good." Flashing him a friendly smile, her head turned, brown eyes scanning for where she'd seen the familiar mustached man in overalls.
Hearing the Italian voice of everyone's favorite plumber, Kisa took another glance to Atticus, meeting his eyes, before she was slowly making her way towards the machines. She took a nervous glance over her shoulder, making sure that the male was following behind her as she lead the way. 'Deep breath in girl. You can do this.' |
