Jina had landed herself somewhere around the perimeter of friend and acquittance and was someone who he more than tolerated spending time with while they were at Hogwarts. Enough so that he did not mind pairing up during lessons if it came to it.
But meeting to spend a day together at a festival playing carnival games? Not on his radar.
Playing with the pendent (self crafted from some failed alloys in his eastern alchemy studies at university in Kyoto), Eiji had come today with his little sister...but she had already darted off to be with her boyfriend and that left Eiji looking around for Missa who ought to be on security patrols. His thumb ran along the seam of his tanktop as he approached the booth (the phials and explosions had drawn his attention to the brewing possibilities and it possibly being a game he could win at) and unknowingly came up beside Jina. Clicking his tongue in mild disappointment, and scrutinizing the shrunken heads for their sheer existence, the former Slytherin was just about to turn and leave when he noticed her.
"...Jina?" Wasn't she supposed to be all the way across the pond?
Jina Morin, aka Eiji Rasting's tolerable friend-acquaintance aka Queen of Miscommunication About To Be Disappointed, turned around to see her friend (yes, friend!) standing beside her.
"Oh, hey!" she folded her sunglasses and slid them in her drawstring bag.
"Okay so I checked out the booths on my way here and I think we can start here at bottle bowling, then go design a commemorative coin or t-shirt or something which I guess we'll finish around noon, so we can grab a bite to eat at the food stands aaaaand go our separate ways after that."
Spending a day with Eiji at a festival was not on Jina's radar either. She assumed they would only be hanging out for
half a day - so that they could both meet other people afterwards!
"Unless you're against breaking potion vials?" she looked up curiously.
