The train ride had been mostly uneventful with the only thing of particular note being the manner in which Pistachio had rolled off her shoulder and almost into the container of soup she had left for Mercer to take. She probably should inform her father that he need not continue to provide her with a container of it each trip, some traditions were not meant to carry on, but she was always given a sign not to crush her father's affections. Had Mercer noticed the offering? She had not stuck around long enough to know in that moment as the flow of the wind through the compartments had encouraged her to stay on her feet and settle no where.
Her legs were quite tired at this point.
Slumping into the vacancy beside her friend, Mitsuki's usually straight as an arrow posture slouched entirely as she leaned essentially all of her weight on him. She too had a deep yearning for pudding.
"That is a false accusation," she mumbled on an exhale.
Her head shifted slightly, glancing around at the rest of the gathered crowed and settled on the Nam siblings nearby. The younger of the two may have been asking a rhetorical question, seeing as it was her brother she was playing with, but such nuance was lost on the second year. "Lisa Nam," she offered casually. An easy answer for an easy question.
Back to leaning on Mercer exclusively, Mitsuki slipped her hand into her pocket for a pinch of salt and licked the crystals off the tips of her fingers. The other boy who had arrived seemed content in his silence, imploring Mitsuki not to interrupt or otherwise divide her attention between him and Mercer.
She hoped her little spectre would join them soon too.
