You have to prepare for a fight

[queenscheckmate]

Characters: Kallen and anyone who feels like running into her.
Format: Action or prose, it's your choice!
This log is: Open
Location: Dining hall (before, during, and after)
Summary: After training with Huashi and Kotarou, Kallen decides it's a good idea to eat. Although uh... she decides to pick up a sandwich and can't remember how to eat it.
Warnings: N/A

It's just been a long... a very long day for Kallen. First, she was announced as a Player, then Gino almost damn near passed out on her, and for the finish, training with Huashi mainly so she could get used to the girl's weapon. Kallen had some time ahead of her so she wanted to be prepared. The next day she would spend some time watching some of the other fights.

Kallen looked up at the sky and the sun was fading into the background. She made the decision to head to the dining hall to grab something to eat. She made a mindless choice and picked up a sandwich. Sitting down at a near by table, she stared at her plate and at her food.

Just how was she supposed to eat this?

"If you were really sorry about bothering me, you wouldn't have been stalking me." Kallen sighed again and turned in the girl direction. "I can't give an answer for that. Gino sought me out after the announcement."

"You could tell?!" Mei looked down, a hand going to her chin as she asided. Except it wasn't an aside at all, because there was no audience and, well, Kallen could hear it. "...she must be a ninja..."

She looked up again. "What! He did?!"

[queenscheckmate]

"I'm not a ninja. I used be 'military trained'." Meaning, she can see and know you're there for like 10 miles away.

"Yes, he did."

[idkmybffxiao]

"You're a soldier?"

Wait, that would be a tangent for another time. Mei's expression falls into misery at the revelation of Gino's 'betrayal'. "B-but... me, Gino, and Grenn are supposed to be a team."

[queenscheckmate]

"I was." But this place was slowly turning her into one. And Kallen shrugged at Mei's next line. That had nothing to do with her. "Get used to disappointment." It sounded harsher than it was intended.

[idkmybffxiao]

"W-what.." Get used to disappointment, huh? "...oh."

And that was that. Mei fell silent and stared down at the floor under the table.

"I can't say or make excuses for Gino. But if you think I tricked him or anything like that, it's not the truth."

[idkmybffxiao]

"Yeah. I'm sorry..." The kid sounded like she meant it this time. So if she wanted answers, she needed to hunt down the knight. Mei slid down off her seat and turned to go, muttering as she did. "...he'd better have a good excuse..."

Angry child has been redirected towards Gino. That'll be one heck of a sight to behold.

"It's all right." Kallen half was interested as to why this girl was interested in Gino anyway. But she figured it wasn't her place to ask so she didn't.
