[Closed to CR from Artemis' Temple and Baldr's too]
[Back from the Forest of Doom, which she'd wandered into with Sora, she's starting to both get more confident in what she can do as a shinki and more aware of the danger that the world around her poses. This hasn't diminished the light in her heart, but tempered it into a willingness to become the kind of person that neither Roxas nor Sora worries about if she wants to go wherever she pleases.]

[Semi-Open to everyone else, if you'd find her at Artemis' Temple just by chance]
[Kairi is mostly available to wave at anyone she doesn't know and chat up casually, just from walking around the grounds with the two ghost dogs. She'll be practicing Borderlines on her own as well as some very simple swordsmanship positions that Sora's shown her.]

[Everyone Else - Call Me Text Me If You Wanna Beep Me]
[Kairi has become an avid texter and phone converser, so if you're someone she's had previous contact with, you can handwave a brief conversation that she initiated and concluded with directions to the temple to find her.]

[She nods, holding her hands to her mouth and giggling.]

Yeah, that's true. Unless you're like... world-class pro level, but I don't think a shinki will know that right away though. Maybe later on. It's the kind of thing that really brings people together - maybe we COULD use a cooking club!

[goingbananas]

Well, I do want to learn from some pros. [ Which isn’t much, granted, when he has to constantly glean recipes off of books and the Internet. But he knows that he damn well enjoys the process of it anyway, and coming up with his own recipes on the fly…

Who’re we kidding he’s been sold on the idea of a cooking club since the beginning. ]

Who are these other friends of yours who’re into cooking, anyway?

Oh crap assuming this is post-beach-party oops

[pure_radiantics]

Uhhhh let's see...

[She starts using her hands to count.]

Sanji, Hakkai, and Chikusa are the three I'm thinking of mainly. Oh and Hajime too I guess.

[She'd seen Hajime feeding people not actually cooking but hey it still counts, right? She said she made it.]

got it! o7

[goingbananas]

[ He hums a little as she rattles off the names—some of them familiar—which is probably why his grin might seem a touch sharper, a bit more menacing…

But that's probably just a trick of the light. ]

It's a start~ [ he lilts. ] You know, I figured Hakkai might be one of them. He seems like the type.

<3

[pure_radiantics]

Really? I don't know him that well, but I saw him at the grills during the party.

[ She has no idea why he's smiling like that though. ]

Why did you think Hakkai might be the type? I thought he was just a teacher.

[goingbananas]

He’s the type of guy who’ll look after you. [ He’s a lot like Sanada, actually. But with a tragic backstory. ]

Not that there’s anything wrong with that. He’s the kind of guy this place needs.

Wrapping up

[pure_radiantics]

Oh I guess that's true. He does seem like that type.

[She turns over her shoulder then, looking towards the sun without looking directly at it, then remembers her phone can tell her what time it is too.]

Darn, I should probably get going.

[She smiles up at him again.] Promise you'll say hello next time I see you, alright?

[goingbananas]

[ Mei is probably expecting him at any moment himself, anyway. ]

Of course I will, Kairi! And feel free to come by our temple anytime—it’s got this really long set of stairs to the entrance. You can’t miss it!

[ And on that rather ominous note, he turns back toward the road with a little parting wave. ]
