Re: Don't Look Back IC
"I... I don't know. I don't know I don't know I don't know." By this point Zack has stopped walking entirely, with the crowd starting to leave them behind. "I-I th-think... I think there are, um, two different ways of int-interpreting this. Either, um, she's a criminal, or she's a... a mole." He swallows heavily, trying to wrangle control over his wildly panicking thoughts. "I kn-know I said we should t-tell someone... b-but I don't know who, Susan. T-telling an adult m-might make it worse if we're, you know, wrong."

Re: Don't Look Back IC
Upon hearing that question, Jessie turns an even brighter red. Nothing!
Halloween, huh? Maybe. Maybe you'll see me there.
Zack and Susan start getting left behind, but they can't help but get the feeling they've been overheard. Some of the others are whispering and pointing, some stand up on tip toes to see if they can figure any of what they are hearing out for themselves.

Re: Don't Look Back IC
After noticing people start to whisper amongst the tour group and the fingers pointed in her direction, Susan knew something was wrong. Thinking fast, she blurted out "Hey, thanks for the... ideas for the... um... English paper." Then, in order to sell the idea, she takes a pen out of her pocket and starts writing down the information on her hand.

Re: Don't Look Back IC
Well, if I do, you'll have to figure out who I am.
"Uh, sure! I wonder if my roommate will want to join us?"
You think you need to defend yourself from me?
It seems really weird, especially this early in the year, but it eventually gets out that apparently the honors section of English starts out with some really heavy stuff. So if you weren't already, now you're an honors student. Yay?

Re: Don't Look Back IC
I see, Jessie says understandingly. Well, you should probably work on the delivery. Otherwise, she punches you playfully on the shoulder.
People may think you don't want them to get close to you.
***
After another hour or so of touring, enough of the crowd complains about hunger that the time has come for lunch. So you all head into a restaurant and start clambering for table space, taking wherever you can. But can you snag a spot all to yourself? And more importantly, is wherever you end up near a special somebody?

Re: Don't Look Back IC
Of course, Victor had things planned from the beginning of the trip. After around one quarter of the other students were voicing their hunger, the young heir leads the way to a local café that he had arranged with earlier to be mostly vacant at the time. As the store owner flips the sign to open, Victor gives a wave. "Hey, Tom! Perfect timing! As I said, a bunch of potential repeat customers, right on schedule!"
Looking to the group, Victor holds the door open for everyone to enter. "I've already arranged things, so pick whatever you're interested in - it's on me."
Now hopefully people will leave him a space next to Jessie. Maybe she could help plan this party a little bit more. Or, more hopefully, he could get her to open up a bit.

Re: Don't Look Back IC
"Hey, Jessie! Can I sit next to you?" Jenny tries to shove her way to her intended spot, determined to score some points with Jessie for once.

Re: Don't Look Back IC
Zack was distracted by dozens of jumbling thoughts as he entered the restaurant. Who was Jessie? A government informant? Or a dangerous criminal? One option ruled out going to the police about it; both made it that confronting her directly would probably get him and Susan nowhere if it didn't get them killed first. He had to get close to her again, if only to be able to figure out what was going on.

Re: Don't Look Back IC
Lissa for her part wandered in, with a few friends of her own in toe.
Already not listening to Dad's best friend, she pulled out her credit card. The veal please. She requested with a regal air. You should all try it, on me. She recommended.
Before physically shoving her way to a table with Jessie. Servers that would have normally protested Lissa's... eagerness had a sudden feeling of fear at making the Delacroix daughter upset.

Susan follows Zack into the restaurant and carefully navigates around the group that Jessie appears to be the center of, after all, there's no telling how dangerous it would be if she figured out that she was being followed.

Re: Don't Look Back IC
Sadly, this plan just doesn't seem to work the way you hoped. While Tom is prepared to handle a crowd this large, Victor was not prepared to fight his way through everybody to get to Jessie. In fact, you see her sit down at the table of the girl she was with last night.
Jenny manages to get through the crowd, but ends up getting knocked into a table right across from where Jessie seems to be interested in sitting. Your new friend, the Japanese girl ends up following you and sits down at the same table as you, but when she sees who is across the aisle, she waves over. "Lissa-sama! Ohayō gozaimasu!"
Zack tries to get Jessie's attention, but to no avail. She seems to have her mind up about where she is going, and before long, you lose her as she threads her way through the restaurant. But, you do find Susan, near another girl who looks a bit upset as a girl next to her shouts in Japanese.
Susan has no trouble following Zack. She is able to sit with him and nothing terrible happens.
Everyone cheers when Lissa offers to pay for everyone. As you are putting your card away, you hear a voice.
Hey, mind if I join you?
At nearly the same time, you hear another voice call out.

Re: Don't Look Back IC
Victor frowns, annoyed with the other girl for taking control of the group that he had put together. Something bothered him about the girl, between the large amount of money she had yet the oddly aggressive behavior. He'd have to ask around and maybe do some research later. Oh well, right now his only options were to relax and enjoy his food. Besides, her paying for it made for a cheaper day out than he was expecting.
"Hey Joe, who is that Delacroix girl?" he whispers to his friend before biting into the sandwich he ordered.Last edited by Esprit15; 2017-08-06 at 05:02 PM.

"You know her?" asked Jenny to Yuki. She didn't know Lissa very well, but she was in some of the classes as her, so she knew her name at least.
