[When she spots him at the train station, a big grin forms on her face. She rushes over, waving all the meanwhile and being generally loud and energetic.]

Hey! Didn't think you'd make it, to be honest. Ya seem like the kind of guy who only comes out of his house for class and meals and stuff.

[Maria pauses, then frantically waves away her previous statement.]

Not like in a bad way or anythin'! Just, uh, I worry about you, y'know? You could use some you time, which is I guess why we're here, huh? Any place you wanna go first? Maybe shopping?

[ He squints, trying to make out the figures at the station with the blaring light of the sun still blurring his sensitive eyes. Fortunately, or unfortunately, he doesn't have to squint for long as his companion comes at him like a bullet. An exceptionally loud and gay bullet of friendship. Shit. ]

Hi Maria.

[ He offers weakly. He only sorta knows Maria, takes a few classes she is barely passing, but Morgana knows her and she agreed to hang out with him, so she can't be that bad. ]

You don't need to worry, Giselle and Morgana make sure I get out enough.-and anything that gets us inside would be nice....

[ He begins walking to the exit of the station in long strides of someone tall who doesn't walk with other people very often before he stops to turn and check on her. ]

Uh, if you want, when we had lunch I can help you edit your essay. Professor said you needed to elaborate on something that wasn't how much you - ah....want to lick Lady Macbeth's fingers.

[Cute. He thinks she's actually worried. Might as well continue with that, though.]

Oh right, sorry. How 'bout we go in the first store we see then? It can be like a game!

[As he continues onward, she toddles behind, a little too aware of their height difference.]

Sure, but I don't really see where it'd need editing. I mean, come on, I was comparing that to Lysistrata's feelings towards Spartan women and their bodies.

[ He-, He really doesn't know how to deal with her. ]

I'm not sure how that's like a game at all. Just sounds like you want to drag me somewhere embarrassing.

[ He slows his pace a little so Maria can keep up with him easier, but not enough to have them walking side by side. The relief he feels when they enter the mall across the street is palpable. -and a quick glance around shows there isn't anything like a lingere store or tacky hobby shop close by. ]

I think it was more that it was so...explicit. I don't know, can talk to her yourself if you want to argue.
