Nope's Peak [Day 2 Date] Kaito Momota
[Well, after a great deal of (somewhat put-on) fretting, Niwatori was able to pull herself together for this date and make it to the cafeteria at the time they agreed on. Compared to yesterday she looks way more normal, wearing actual clothes - a mid-thigh length purple dress that doesn't even have feathers on it, and a necklace. Surveying the room, the tables are so long that it feels a little strange to just have the two of them there, and the cafeteria has been used a lot today. Niwa's just gonna straighten some of this up a bit while she waits, but at least it meant there was already some food waiting for them.
In truth, going on a date with "The Luminary of the Stars" doesn't make her as nervous as she acts. He seemed carefree and careless, someone who wouldn't see a betrayal coming from a mile away. If she had been here to kill someone, she'd have thought being matched with him was perfect. But she isn't, which makes her a hundred times less certain about how to deal with him as a person. Either way, she's at least confident she can handle him. He seemed to like her, anyway... she just needs to keep up the momentum, and things will be fine.
Although right now, she's not entirely certain a guy like that would even show up on time.]

[She trails off, sighing slightly.]
Making something meaningful... I don't really believe things have that much meaning, or even if they have to. Even confident people still mess up, and timid me still has a lot of victories. I only thought of a wish because if I won, I'd get one. I only fight because I'm following orders. If we were going to use another sky metaphor, you could say that I follow the wind. A-And that's what a bird is supposed to do...
[She pauses to take a particularly big bite of the snack she just grabbed.]
... I don't think anyone's ever called me 'cool' though. That's a new one.
[Cute, maybe. And to be fair, she doesn't hang out with a lot of her peers who would use that casual of a term.]

You might even decide that fighting is what you want, but as long as you're doing it for you, then it doesn't matter what it is.

W-What I want most right now is... just to keep on living... things that will make me get softer aren't going to help with that.
[She pauses. That's not a hundred percent true...]
Well, if everyone else is dead by the time I get back, I might have some kind of chance. That's probably not what you want to hear though!

[She's doubtful, but she doesn't really have an argument for that one. She just... simply wouldn't know.]
W-Well, anyway, do you like the snacks, Kaito-san? This wasn't really how I planned the date to go, but you could at least let me know if they're good or not.
