Takashi couldn't help wearing a small smile as the two conversed casually with one another. He nodded in ageement with his cousin's offer to Mia about sitting with them at lunch. He she agreed, the three of them went to get their lunch and sit together afterwards.

It wasn't long before Tamaki wandered into the cafeteria. He soon noticed the trio and quickly approached them. Have they not seen the dark hair make either? The thought made the blonde sigh. "Kyoya must be skipping luncn, again.. Seeing how he's not here."

Ah, there it was. She found the more he had just remembered. Allen sighed quietly and sounded a soft chuckle. "My love, of course it doesn't. Most people don't know that fictional creatures aren't so fictional." He spoke quietly, sipping from his tea. " It doesn't hurt to try though, right? Once my fever goes away? " He voiced curiously. Allen understood why she was hesitant to tell him, but he didn't have much hope.

Maddie was boiling on the inside, and that took quite a bit. This girl.. No. This woman needed to stop giving him so much grief. Heading about the kiss made her mentally kick herself. Really? This was what that was about? A stupid kiss? 'Stupid to you.. But you've never had a relationship! What's stupid to you .might not be so stupid to them. Gah, it's none of my business!' She was having her own war with herself now, at least until the microwave beeped to signal that the popcorn was ready. Why did she suddenly give a damn about what people thought of her? Clint knew her, but she didn't. If she said something it would only cause more problems for Clint. That's what she cares about..but seeing him now.. She almost wanted to bite the bullet and say something.

((if Jess keeps up next post, I'll have Maddie step in x3))

Takashi seemed relatively content with how his cousin had been attentive through the day, up until they were dismissed for lunch. He easily lifted the boy up and up and set him down on his shoulders before following the class out. He did wait outside for Mia though, since she and Mitsukuni had waved to one another. Maybe they'd sit together in the cafeteria?

Kyoya was already back in the club room, having thought about contacting the girl's step-father in order to talk to him about her mother's behavior and such. He was taking on the role he knew as a business man, who was also usually one-step a head of everybody else. Since he was focused on taking care of this before the end of school, he hadn't really thought to actually grab lunch.

Allen nodded lightly when she spoke. "Perfect. All we'll need to do is mix them and make it consumable, that seems like the easiest thing to do. Boil the leaves of both plants together as a tea." He said, partially talking to himself, then shook his head lightly and rubbed the back of his head. This was what happened when he started thinking remedies. It was like a natural reaction for him by now. Speaking of tea.. Allen remembered she had set his cup of peppermint tea on the bed table so it would cool a little, and carefully picked it up and held it securely as he sipped from it. It was still warm, but it wasn't hot enough to burn him. Allen listened as Kaneko read the other page to him. Talkative period? Ah.. He remembered that little detail. "Rest is quite needed." He said casually, happy to have someone to talk to about herbs and remedies once again. He lifted his head slightly. "..is there something else?" He asked curiously.

Maddie lifted her head at how the conversation was going, the popcorn not doing a very good job keeping her thoughts distracted. He was going to eventually let her in, if this kept up. Why? Because he was a nice guy. The very same reason why he had brought Maddie inside the day he found her, sleeping on the neighbors lawn, and wanted her to stay here as long as she wanted/ needed. Jess wasn't going away anytime soon, was she? Movie day was going to have to wait. Maddie sighed quietly when her thoughts came true, and he let the woman inside. Did she bother looking at the other woman? No. She wasn't going to. They didn't know each other, unless she happened to see her out on the streets or doing readings for people at her little table she had. Maddie didn't like Jess for one reason, she was a pest.

Maddie nodded lightly and went to stand closer to the microwave, to keep an eye on the popcorn like he asked. She could see the part of the woman when he opened the door, but she made sure that the woman wouldn't see her. She could hear them talking, it didn't take hyper-sensitive ears. The kitchen wasn't that far from the front door, but she kept her eyes on the floor and quietly listened to the popping of popcorn as if attempting to tune out the private conversation. It wasn't her business. Obviously they had some kind of relationship in the past, and this Jess woman wanted it once again. Clint on the other hand, not so much. Whatever happened yesterday was between them- and that's the way it worked,

Allen waited patiently while Kaneko went over her bookshelf, then she came back and the bed shifted under her weight. He quietly listened as Kaneko read the page to him and earned himself a decent picture of the herb in his mind. Did they have any of that? He wondered. He tilted his head when she read the little notes on the page and felt a small smirk tug at his lips. He'd have to remember that the next time either of them had a sore throat. It should also say something about restoring eyesight to those over seventy years old, but he figured that was porbably for humans. "Question is, do we have any?" He murmured quietly, meaning whether is was in his bag or in their garden.

((*starts playing the trouble song* xD))

Maddie smirked lightly at his smile, it seemed he had seen through her plan. But, at least he smiled! She felt accomplished. She giggled sheepishly and rubbed her forearm. "Well.. Aside from the genres I don't favor, it's hard to find a book I won't enjoy." She said casually, giving him a light nudge with her elbow. Maddie lifted her heaad when the sound of a car engine and frowned slightly at his words. "Really.. I know I mentioned her following you, but following you home?" She said quietly, and mostly to herself. She could see his face change again and glanced around for a hiding spot. The last he needed was a girl starting a fight because another girl was living with him, not that it mattered. It was his house. But.. Maddie glanced at him curiously. Curious to if he would open the door or not. "What do you want to do here?" She asked him quietly.

Maddie nodded lightly and ran delicate fingers through her long black hair. A small smirk on her face as the popcorn began popping more frequently and louder. She soon got bored watching the popcorn and walked over to the table where Clint sat. "I only read fast when I like a book." She poked at him, honestly just hoping to see him smile or something. He was stressed out, probably about her vision, and she almost regret- no. She pushed the thought aside. She wasn't even going to entertain the thought of regretting agreeing to give him a reading. It would've affected him more.

Allen sat quietly as he thought about what he was saying. Lucky, Kaneko mentioned bringing quite a few of his books if not all of them. "I need you to find volume 2 of the Herbalist book series you brought along. In that book should be Kava Kava, and Euphrosyne. One is for pain, while the other has been used for eyesight. Granted, I'm not sure how much mixing them will help, if at all, but it's worth a try..and I'm sure they'll be easier to find then what I was orginally using." He said calmly. "I need to look in the book because I don't remember what they look like, or how people used them when they did. I do know that the Euphrosyne can be used as a compress though, and used to make eye drops." He explained.

thought this might help;
Kava Kava
Euphrosyne

Maddie went and stood by the.microwave like a child, just.watching and waiting for the popcorn to start.popping. She wasn't aware, nor did she really care, how silly it childish she might've looked. Anything to keep her from asking about his day at work. That and..She just wanted to watch popcorn pop in microwave at least once up close. She curiously glanced at him when he spoke and shook her head. "Not quite, I've still got a few chapters left and I'm to have to re-read some pages 'cause I fell as reading." She answered casually,.

Maddie nodded lightly when he spoke, and went to sit on her bed while she waited. She yawned again and tried stretching to get her blood moving. She was still in her pjs after he had cleaned up and went to kitchen. Maddie blinked and wandered into the kitchen when he asked what kind of popcorn he liked. "I like both, but buttered is just fine for our movie evening." She said casually. It wasn't dinner time, but it was too late in the day to day afternoon.

The day ran slower today, which was weird. Takashi found himself focusing on the teacher, and his cousin during the entire class. He wasn't completely convinced that Mitsukuni was alright, the lack of sleep evident even after his nap. Though he did glance at him from time to time, he was subtle in hopes his cousin wouldn't notice. Before he knew it, the bell to let classes out to lunch rang and Takashi was gathering his things.

Eventually, Miranda gave up and went home for the time being. Alice still hadn't touched her breakfast and now it was lunch time, and the girl was fast asleep.
