Mamoru's comment about her height earned a peal of laughter from the girl as they walked into the blissfully cold lobby of the Research Lobby together. She waggled a finger at him in a mock-scolding fashion and said"Teasing me about that is totally out of bounds, get it?" She wasn't cross though - quite the opposite, in fact. She was giggling helplessly by the time they sat down, deflecting all his polite questions by insisting she was fine (though he did manage to coax her into getting a bottle of lemonade, which she drank half of in one go). She looked delighted to be here and she was; excitement was fluttering in her stomach and she couldn't stop grinning.

"So, while we're waiting..." she said, as she leaned over in her chair to peer up at him, with that Cheshire cat smile on her face. "I want you to tell me all about where you've been, okay? You've been totally vague lately! I want to hear absolutely everything~! Well, at least until the professor gets here, anyway."

[[ sorry it's so short, I got a cold so I'm all ughh ]]
