@TheElectricClone The figure Max addressed was a shadow on the wall, although it seemed to have no source.
“Max. I'm Cienn. I'd say nice to meet you but I dunno if this quite counts as 'meeting'.”

@hidewithin "To me, it does. It's a pleasure to meet you too, Cienn."

Max didn't mind as he nodded.

@TheElectricClone “And I'll say the same to you! So where did you come back from?”
@hidewithin "I was on a trip away just taking a break from work.. In Japan."
@TheElectricClone The figure scratched at their hair. “Cool! I've been to Japan once or twice, but not for an extended stay. Welcome back! How was the trip?”

@hidewithin "It was cool. There a
was a lot of places to visit and a lot of food to try. It was fun !"

The mutant replied with a smile ti his new friend as he rubbed the back of his head.

@TheElectricClone “I'm glad! There's like a bazillion places to visit and I'm sure Japan was an interesting place.”
The shadow detached from the wall and a girl solidified, with green eyes, freckles, and dark hair. She stifled a yawn.
“Someday I'll go there. I gotta see the Gundam they have.”

@hidewithin "Wow, you look great!"

He couldn't help as he saw her get away from the wall and show her true figure.

@TheElectricClone She looked down at the tank top and capris she wore.
“Oh. Thanks. I just threw these on. It's just so hot lately, usually I wear a jacket but I don't want to sweat myself out of existence.”
@hidewithin "I know. The weather has been crazy hot lately, huh ? I love jackets too but damn that weather.."
@TheElectricClone “Do you like hoodies or leather jackets?”
Cienn moved to sit at the edge of the rooftop, letting her legs dangle over the edge.
