Will we meet for dinner in elysium, my dear(Ami and Natsume)

[Bean Bandit]

Ami smiles and shrugs as they approach the bus stop. "I wouldn't say it means little." she offers. "Your talents define you, and help you to grow. Life is all about learn to fit what we already know into a larger framework. I'm glad you've taken steps into a larger world."

Ami ducks her head, blushing a little. "I'm glad I met you, too." she murmurs in a tiny voice.

[Midnight Sun]

"I'm...glad I got to spend tonight with you, though it was pretty uneventful," Natsume says, it being her turn to blush in embarrass. "I...hope we get to do it again sometime...soon..."

[Bean Bandit]

Ami nodded. Even though she was weary, she couldn't stop the sunny smile spreading across her face.  I wonder if it's possible to capture feelings like this in a bottle, somehow... "I'd be happy to...A-any time." she replies softly, almost beaming.

[Midnight Sun]

"Maybe next time we'll go to someplace more lively," Natsume suggests. "I hear shy people always have a wild side thats just waiting to explode. I wonder if you're the same, Ami-chan."

[Bean Bandit]

Ami giggles nervously, shaking her head as they come to the bus stop. "Not that I've noticed." she blushes. "You can ask Usagi-chan, or any of the others...I'm almost boring, really."

[Midnight Sun]

Natsume stops as they come upon the bus stop. It looks like it might be a few minutes before it arrives.

"Hmmm, maybe" she says. "I suppose that's something I'll have to find out on my own, but if its there, I'll do everything I can to bring it out."

[Bean Bandit]

Ami blushes a little darker. "It couldn't hurt...?" she stumbles a little, unsure how to reply, and simply enjoying the warm feeling of being noticed.

[Anastasia]

As you chat, you notice the bus is coming. Early for a change, as if a kami above is mocking you slightly.

Figures, but at least it's not late.

[Midnight Sun]

"Who knows," Natsume starts while leaning closer to Ami. "I might just find something about myself that I never knew existed. Wouldn't that be interesting?"

[Bean Bandit]

Ami blinks, considering. "Possibly." she muses, taking the suggestion seriously. "It depends on what it is...things I find out about myself aren't always pleasant..."

She glances at the bus, and sighs softly. It figures...

[Midnight Sun]

"It looks like this is where we part," Natsume says. "Really, it was wonderful having you over, Ami-chan."

[Bean Bandit]

Ami nods, smiling wistfully and folding her hands in front of her. "Thank you...for everything. "I was really nervous, but I had a wonderful time..."

[Midnight Sun]

"Take good care of that bokken," Natsume says. "She likes to be polished at least once every other day."

[Bean Bandit]

Ami nods and giggles a little. "I will." she promises with a smile. Or I'll learn, anyhow. "When you need it, just remove the top of the lightsaber, and replace the diamond with the crystal I gave you, and it should improve the blade strength." she reminds in parting.

"I'll see you again..."

[Anastasia]

Ami gets onto the bus, going back to her life...

And for now, leaving Natsume behind to return to hers.

OOC - New threads for both of you.
