Sweet drinks, with bubbles? "Um, did you mean bubble tea or soda-?" Eiji started to inquire, as Kyo's answer really could have gone either way. Someone else was arriving, though, apparently someone else that Akina had expected to come as well. This club seemed very popular, after all. Eiji had been a little worried at first, but apparently she had just been early and there wasn't anything to be concerned about.
Kyo handled the introductions, in her own way. Eiji felt like she was starting to get a feel for her a little bit. Kyo seemed nice, she thought. A little different, yes, but lots of people were different, and it was pretty obvious that she meant well.
Akina moved to start the meeting, which didn't even manage to make it through a sentence before there was yet another knock, but this one was apparently unexpected, someone who had a lot of questions about missing items on the girl's swim team. Most of the swim team apparently thought it was a weirdo, which was entirely possible, but it was also possible that there was something else going on.
A feeling.
Eiji knew how those went, sometimes. Like how at home she had a feeling of being watched over; that someone was looking out for her. She didn't have that in Tokyo, and she'd found herself sometimes looking over her shoulder, not because she felt like someone was there, but because she felt like someone should be, and wasn't.
"When did all this start happening?" she asked the swim team girl. Spirits often did things for reasons, after all - usually they did, even. It was just that sometimes their reasons didn't really make sense to humans, so it seemed otherwise.
