Day 64: Cafeteria (brunch)

Well, that went well! Anise had gained herself a gorgeously handsome new friend. She just hoped that weird illness didn't get either of them killed before she could get to know him any better.

... Yeah, that was morbid. It was hard not to think about, though.

Before going to the Cafeteria, Anise made a stop at her room to grab her journal, maps, and a pen. Once she finished eating, she could get a start on copying the maps for Barnaby. He was going to be so glad he met her!

With that done, Anise made her way to the Cafeteria, where she picked up an assortment of food, making sure to get some meat, vegetables, and milk on her tray. She then sat down at a table and set her notes aside while she started on her meal. It was hard not to feel self-conscious about the rash on her arm, though the makeup she used had blended the discolored part enough that it couldn't be seen from a distance. Anise just hoped no one would come specifically looking for it.

And now for mealtime. Maya didn't think she had the mental fortitude left to engage anyone in casual conversation, and she didn't want to discuss other topics at all. Nor could she count on people to humor her.

No, there was one she could think of.... Perhaps she'd go sit by Mr. Creeper Extraordinaire and ask him about his life. If she could find him.

After satisfying her nurse's insistence that Maya's plate be sufficiently piled (perhaps Maya shouldn't have drawn attention to her eating habits after all), she glanced about the refectory with a frown. Perhaps Threepwood was still asleep. She was accustomed to seeing him during meals; surely others experienced the sudden affliction of sleepiness at odd times that Maya did? Perhaps, perhaps not. ...Now then. Maya would just have to sit somewhere with a line of sight to the doors and hope the seats beside her didn't look inviting enough.
