Lily was still content to watch him work, in the least creepy way possible. Though, it was reassuring to hear his insistence that he was there for her too.
While she isn't the most lonely person in the world, and was in fact very fortunate to have as many friends as she does... it's still comforting to know. Especially with how things have been going, as of late... The more support, the better.
"For what it may be worth, I'm happy to help you out if you need anything. I may not have as many talents as you or Xavier, but I can still try." She offered with a playfully sheepish smile.
"I'd be more than happy to join you two for an outing, so long as I won't be interrupting any plans or anything! I love the arcade, and it's always better with friends!"

Lily grinned when seeing Jeremiah wasn't paying attention to her, a mischievous little plan forming in her head.
Putting her training to the test, she carefully approached him from behind. She kept her movements as silent as possible, slowly lifting her arms to brace herself for step two.
When she was finally within reach of the (unsuspecting?) man, she lunged to jump on his back. While she was careful not to knock him over if she could help it, she was still dramatic.
Almost immediately after 'impact', she couldn't help but break into giggles, shifting to at least attempt to look at his face. "Hi Jer~" she greeted with playfully exaggerated casualness.
"What the- ah!"
The sudden surprise and sensation of warmth pressed against his back shocked him enough to let out a yelp in surprise, but the familiarity of the voice immediately calmed his instincts.
He adjusts his grip to ensure her safety but doesn't put her down.
"Stars, Lilyyyy! Where did you come from!? How did you manage to be so quiet!?"
"We absolutely could!" Lily beamed, already having a few ideas for simple things they could bake together. Cookies, or even cupcakes, since they could do a lot of decorating, and not have to worry about Kaia handling anything involving heat for long...
Setting aside that thought for now, she let out a small laugh at Kaia's dramatics. "You just seem like the type, I can't quite put my finger on it," she admitted honestly, settling her cheek in her hand for the time being.
At the question, she nodded. "I've been to the library a few times, usually when I'm studying and need a change of scenery but minimal distractions." Though, now that she thinks about it, she really should make more of an effort to try and visit the library...
"Oh, wait! Before you leave, what color do you think the jacket should b—" Not looking away from the clothing rack in front of her, she grabs the sleeve of the person nearest to her without thinking, and realizes a little too late that it felt... Different. She turns, blinking; the person she'd been talking to had left, and beside her instead was...
"Wait, you're—! Lily?! You're Lily, right?! Oh, my god, I am so sorry, I totally thought you were someone else! Gosh, and this is the first time I'm actually talking to you, too..."
—&&. @kaiakaya 🤍
Lily was more than a little startled to suddenly feel her sleeve grabbed while she was looking for a new jacket to replace her favorite one that has... been through it. It's getting a few small holes in it but she's already mended it so many times it's time to retire it.
She blinked in surprise at Kaia for a moment before she started laughing, keeping it relatively quiet for the moment so they don't draw too much attention.
"Yes, I'm Lily. You're Kaia, right?" She asked, hoping she doesn't make a fool of herself.
At Kaia's concerns about how this is the first time they're speaking, she shook her head with a smile and waved a hand dismissively. "It's alright, don't worry!" She reassured easily "Do you need help finding the person you're here with?" She offered, tilting her head slightly.
Cheering at the successful hit, Lily laughed as she slowed to a jog in order to catch up with him, her face flushed from the cold wind and the laughter.
"Okay, truce?" She asked through giggles, even offering a hand for him to shake. Her cheeks hurt in the best way, and she figures they're pretty even again. "Hopefully I didn't hit you too hard?"
Send ❄️ to throw a snowball at Lily!
Lily yelped in surprise at the sudden impact before turning to Rafayel, seeming almost offended for all of... two seconds.
A wide grin spread across her face as she leaned down to make a snowball of her own. "Are you sure you want to play this game~?" she asked playfully, glancing up at him from where her hands were making quick work of the snow.
Lily at least tried to help with carrying the boxes so that they could head home, not the slightest bit phrased by his phrasing. “We should probably at least stop home to drop off the food, yeah,” she agreed, starting to lead the way once they had everything gathered.
His comment about taking a nap earned a small laugh, humming thoughtfully. “Honestly a nap does sound pretty nice...” She admitted, even if she knows she probably shouldn’t let herself take a nap. She’d ruin her sleep schedule if she did, and that’s the last thing she needs right now.
“To be fair, you work really hard, so I’m not surprised that you end up so tired.” Even if she wishes that she could do more so that he wasn’t exhausting himself so much... but she has such a long ways to go to even begin to compare.
After spending the morning doing research on places in Linkon City that offer milk tea, Lily finally found a place that seemed like it would be a nice place to visit and had the coffee milk tea that Xavier mentioned. Plus it wasn't far from a few good places to eat so they'd have options based on what they were feeling up to without having to go all the way across town. Perfect.
Lily finally sent Xavier a text in the late morning.
'I found a place that has that coffee milk tea you mentioned! And it has really good reviews.'
After a moment of thought, she sent another text as well.
'And thank you for walking me home last night. I really appreciated it. It was nice, looking at the stars with you.'
If not for the sporadic texts, Xavier would still be asleep. Outside the birds that often bickered over his balcony were squawking at a volume loudly. The combination of factors is enough to stir him, just barely. He knows its her before having to unlock his phone.

In a flash he rinses off, takes care of basic hygiene, and is donning a favored hoodie in spite of the weather.
By the time he gets downstairs, he's already rubbing his eyes again as he knocks on the door.
Oh sweet Rafayel, thinking she would leave it there.
Instead of bothering to try and hit a moving target by just throwing her snowball, she opted to instead run after him.
"Get back here you brat!" She called through laughed, her arm still posed to throw the moment she saw a good opportunity.

Lily nodded her agreement, crossing her arms again casually as she listened. “Fortunately the only gifts I’ve received that I didn’t... feel terribly partial to, were all little knick knacks I could display and be done with.” She admitted with a small snort. “My clothing style is pretty simple, so that helps a lot.”
Kaia’s excitement earned a small laugh and more enthusiastic nod. “Of course! Honestly it’s kind of hard to get to know everyone, what with us all ending up on different missions and things like that.” She mused “Even worse that I’m not really a drinker, and that’s their go-to bonding activity after work.”
Her commentary about her now-absent companion got a small snort of amusement from Lily, shaking her head. “I suppose so, but still. At least a little warning isn’t too much to ask, right?” She hummed before shrugging dismissively. She sure wouldn’t know.

Humming thoughtfully, she considered the suggestion. What would she do with the time off?
"I'm not sure? Probably depends on if anything else comes up... Maybe tackle some stuff around the apartment, or some training?" She doesn't want to go assuming he'd want to spend all of his time with her, after all. Surely he'd want to get some rest, or time to himself?
"Might track down my camera, do a little photography...?" She mused, more to herself. Her eyebrows furrowed, trying to remember when the last time she'd even used her camera was, and where she'd put it.
