Tai sighs.
He takes a moment to quickly text them back.
Leia:"Oh. Well, I assumed we'd meet up at some poont this weekend to talk and shit, but ehat the fuck do I care. Have fun on your date."
Matte:"It'd be pretty shitty of me to expect you to cook all the time. If you do wanna hang out then just tell me whatever the fuck you wanna do. That's not too intense..."

"Not too intense, huh? There goes my plan," Mattea answers. "I'm sure I can figure something out. Chinese food OK?"
Sam
You head to the mall and find a few of the people who were at the thing celebrating in the cafe. Avel and Grant are chatting with Sachi.
Avalon is hanging out in the arcade, playing with the karaoke machine. A few people are watching her.
Raine is looking around the book store.
Mareena has closed her shop early today and is nowhere to be seen... but you find a small envelope tucked under her door with your name on it.

"Yeah that sounds fine. Catch ya later I guess."
Tai stretches and sighs. He gets up and goes up to Sachi. "Hey master chef, how's it going?"

Go to Raine, and pulls out a completely crumpled piece of paper from his pocket. He speaks in a loud, monotonous voice.
"I am sorry about the pepper spray. I should not have done what I did. I...uh..."
He looks closer at the paper.
"I had more to say, but I spilled some milk over the later parts. Sorry."

Tai
"How's it going? Uh... I don't really know how it goes, it just does. Because of time and stuff. But everything's normal, I think," Sachi answers.
Sam
Inside the envelope, you find a small map and a note. "I had to leave early today, but I remembered you wanted to buy something. So, here you go. You can pay me when you come to work Monday."
You check the map, and it's not very far at all. You look where it leads and find a pair of small hairclips: a rainbow and a lightning bolt.
Karl
"Aw, Karl," Raine says. She gently pulls Karl into a hug. Then, she quietly whispers in his ear. "If you hurt my sister or get her into trouble again, I will fucking end you, you filthy, scuttling cockroach."
Then she steps back with a warm smile, arms behind her back and swinging a leg in a cutesy way, as if she didn't just say that. "No thanks. About the apology, that is. No, thanks."
Leia
You go to the movies with Jimmy. It's a creepy supernatural ghost story type of thing... a found footage 'documentary,' but it actually manages to stay creepy throughout. A nice treat. Jimmy... does not handle it so well, and frequently grabs your arm with a gasp.

"That was very...kind of you."
Karl begins to turn away, but then turns around again.
"Wait, how did I hurt your sister? I mean, she was the one who pepper sprayed me, you know, and I asked for it. Why was it such a big deal in the first place anyway?"

"Woah... It... It looks so real! I... I want to catch a ghost one day! Maybe we can with your cameras...
Don't worry Jimmy real ghosts are our friends..."
Leia realises her mistake and panicks, trying to correct it.
"Not... Not that I havhavhave met any go... go... gogoghost!"

"Blunt? I'm not blunt, I'm round. And the cafe's working like it always does. People come in, order food, and then I make it. Then the eat it, pay, and leave. Also a lot of people stay around to chat a while." Sachi pauses. "You haven't been to the cafe before? I thought I'd seen you around."
Sam
You take the clip and look over at the bookstore where Raine was. You notice she's gone. After quickly looking around, you see her and Avel in line at the movie theater together.
Karl
Raine continues with the soft smile. "I don't really know the law so well, but apparently it doesn't matter that you asked for it because you're still a minor and even if you weren't it's still assault? You're just really lucky we didn't hafta pay bail or anything!"
Leia
Jimmy's face is pale. "Y-you're joking, right? Y-y-you... w-w-wouldn't want... t-to really... meet one? ...R-right?"

Tai sighs, a bit irritated. "No, Sachi, I have. I know how a damn cafe works. It's a figure-of-speech. It's like... are you enjoying work today? Is it busy or a slow day? Not literally slow, slow as in not that many people have come in. You... dont socialize outside of work much do you?"

"I... I... You...
I want to trust in people... But... But...
Even if we go by the belief that every human is good, some of us turn up to be evil...
And... And well...
If we go with the premise that ghosts are evil, shouldn't we give the benefit of the doubts that some of them are good?"

"Eh, I could've payed for it. Lemme tell ya, the government is controlled by those damn ferrets up on top, and all they want to do is take down good, hardworking people like us. They screw you over no matter what!"

Tai
"That was just a joke, Tai. Uh... Yeah, kinda slow today. Not really slow, but just a bit slower than normal. I don't really like this pace. I like it either slow enough I can really, really focus on every dish or really, really fast so I can get in a rhythm."
Leia
"Uhhhhhhh..." Jimmy moans as you leave the theater. "I guess maybe but I'd really prefer to not find out if I don't have to? Um. Why do you want to meet a ghost, exactly!?"
Karl
"Uh-huh... Yeah, that's... great..." Raine seems pretty disinterested in hearing about the shadow-ferret government. "So, um... Bye."
