🩹 - Mikan

Mikan felt a sigh of relief leave her as he told her not to apologize. “Most of m-my friends are single still too,” She added. “I definitely th-think M-Mioda could use someone to… calm her down a little.” The rocker was a rather wild one, and considering her rise to fame in the underground idol world, she was quite popular with both men and women alike. Still, Ibuki seemed far too distracted with causing chaos and making music to settle down. Mahiru and Hiyoko were on their own. They seemed quite happy together and Mikan had no intentions of breaking that apart. And as for her other friends? They were all off doing other things or working in the hospitals alongside her. She could probably gather a handful of friends who would be interested in a mixer party. But she’d think about that later. Mikan listened to him talk, her eyes lighting up as he explained he’d visited Seoul before. “L-Lucky! I’ve only been wh-when I was really little,” she replied. “I b-barely remember my trip with my g-grandmother.”

“I g-guess… people with older ideologies tend to shun those who d-don’t quite fit the molds that they think s-society should have… I’m n-not upset over it. I’ve lived my whole life with p-people telling m-me I’m not fully Japanese. It doesn’t offend me like people think it should.” There were far worse things she could get upset over. He was right about people coming from different backgrounds being more interesting though. She always found patients who came from other places to have the best stories to tell. “Really? I would have n-never guessed!” She exclaimed, taking a sip of her drink. “I know how you feel. K-Kids can be really cruel for no reason. But I don’t b-blame them. They don’t know any better.” Mikan leaned back in her seat, a genuine sense of connection forming between them. Part of her wanted to ask him home with her - a bad habit she had desperately tried to rid when she was younger - but she wanted to take this a little slower than her past relationships. Minato seemed too good to be true and she wasn’t about to let it go sour so early on. “Eh… so… I know this is b-being a little forward. But I f-figured since I’d already mentioned it before… I’d really like to do this again w-with you.”

[{ 🦋 }] - "Sounds like this Mioda friend of yours has a lot of energy, A little too much. Kind of reminds me of my best friend Junpei, that guy can always bring the hype, and make any moment more vibrant with his energy."

A soft chuckle as he thinks of a few times his best buddy did what he does best, be the same outgoing dude he was known for being. There was never a dull moment with his best friend Junpei Iori around. If his buddy agreed to come, he would more than likely just come for the party to meet new friends, as Junpei was in a relationship with Chidori Yoshino, and he honestly couldn't be any happier for those two.

For some reason, Minato felt like that name sounded very familiar, he didn't know anyone with that name personally, but he could have sworn he heard it somewhere before, he just couldn't remember. Either way, this person sounded a bit overly energetic, It made him curious about her other friends she has, especially since this Mioda character sounded very happy-go-lucky, and that wasn't a bad thing either.

When they further spoke about Korean food, Minato brought up his most recent visit to Seoul, a travel experience that he thoroughly enjoyed, not just for the wonderful food, but also because of the location he was investigating at the time, good food, and constant communication with spirits was a perfect recipe for a very good trip if he ever went to Seoul again, he would definitely have to invite Mikan to join him, especially if she hadn't been there for a long time, and besides, not only did he enjoy her company, it would also be a very nice switch since he had been there only with his coworkers, it would be especially enjoyable with Mikan Tsumiki right by his side.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Really? Hmm, in that case, the next time I go to Seoul, maybe can come along? I'd be happy to have you with me on that trip."

Hearing her state something so boldly that she lived her life being cast aside due to the slight difference, it kind of amazed him. On the outside, Mikan appeared so weak and frail, but never did he think that she would be so strong after living through that for such a long time.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Yeah, I think so too. But, wow... you're much stronger than I thought, I am very glad.. I admire that about you Mikan."

A soft chuckle after Minato revealed his other ethnic origin, something that was often hard to believe when it came to it, Thankfully, just like he thought, she understood how it felt too.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Yeah, it's hard to tell sometimes, and people these days can definitely be that way. Some kids can definitely be cruel, but they'll learn eventually."

Minato was a little surprised when she asked for a second date, he honestly didn't think it would happen, so evidently, but he wasn't complaining this time it didn't take him long to have an answer, because he also wanted to have another date with her, so he smiles.

[{ 🦋 }] - "You're not being too forward, in fact, I would be more than happy to go on a second date with you Mikan, I'm really enjoying this time we're spending together, and I'm looking forward to more." He says with a smile.

[dxfiedfxte]

As she provides just a little bit more context about her friend Mioda, it starts to become apparent that he has in fact heard of her before, she recalled hearing something about an artist from a school band leaving her group for differences in creativity, the more he thought about it, the more he remembered. He found it pretty interesting that Mikan was friends with a popular musical artist, he assumed she must have gone to some sort of private school if it had students with notoriety like that.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Oh! Now I remember. Ibuki Mioda formerly from.. I think they were called, Black Cherry? I'm not sure if that's correct, but yeah I know who you're talking about now. It's pretty neat that you went to school with her."

He nods as she goes into her song that hit the top of the music charts, as Mikan explained, Minato had to admit, he found it pretty cute when she used the word 'charts' with a question after it, she was dangerously adorable with her wording sometimes.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Yeah, I think I know which song you're talking about. I've heard it on the radio in my car often."

Moving onto the topic of inviting her along for a trip to South Korea sometime, there was something in the way her eyes lit up at the mention of it, combined with that bright smile of hers that caused him to smile in return. Even if this was just the first date, the thought of having her along with him for a trip to a country she had a connection to her origins. Minato had never really met anyone who was part Korean before, so he was very interested in finding out more about her.

[{ 🦋 }] - "In that case, I'll make sure I let you know a couple weeks ahead of the trip so you have some time to check you're schedule. I'll be wrapping up filming of my fifth season in a month, so once that's done, I'll probably start deciding on a day for it."

He adds with a smile. Minato was pretty sure they would have a decent number of dates in the books by then, whenever it would come a time for that trip, they would be close enough to have a vacation together, the thought of it all excited him.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Society isn't the same, and has changed over the years, so not everyone in this world has good in their heart, so it's important to be strong, no matter what. I can't imagine all of the things you've had to go through, but you're strong because you're still here, and that's what's important."

Minato laments. It wasn't too hard to get the idea that Mikan must have had a hard life, he didn't know the full details, but it spoke volumes in her very timid personality. It made him even more grateful to be sitting here across from her like this.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Haha, thanks. But you're not wrong. When it comes to evil spirits and malevolent forces, especially when dealing with demonic entities, any faint display of weakness will be used against you, it's happened a few times in some investigations. They usually like to target our youngest investigator, Zero since he's very insecure about some things, he's also scared very easily which doesn't help in that regard. So us paranormal investigators don't really have much of a choice, we have to be strong-willed because once an entity has a chokehold around your fears or shaken will, it is extremely difficult to make them let go of their target."

He explains, appreciative of her compliment, but also decided to provide a bit of detail on the subject. On the topic of another date. Minato couldn't agree with her any more than he already did. This whole time during their conversation, Minato could feel something genuine forming between them. Mikan was the first person he had dated in a long time. The fact that the conversation was already going so well even before their food, was definite proof that there was a strong bond starting to form, so more dates with her were an immediate yes.

[{ 🦋 }] - "We really do. You know, this is the first date I've gone on in years. Food isn't even here yet, and I'm already having such a blast. So I want to know a lot more about you too."

He agrees with another smile. Moments later, the chef returns with their food and serves them their plates, before bowing and walking back into the double doors of the kitchen.

"Y-Yeah! Mioda used to be in an band b-but they broke up in high-school. They had a couple of singles that actually ch-charted on the music uhm... charts? But when she w-went solo she stuck m-mainly to indie m-music. But she's pretty popular!" Mikan explained. "She's got one s-song that's b-been playing on the radio recently!"

Mikan lit up at his mention of letting her tag along on his next trip to Seoul. "R-Really? I'd h-have to make sure I can take the time off from the c-clinic... and I won't be in classes, but other than that, I'd love to!" She replied enthusiastically.

She flushed pink at his compliments. They weren't even drinking much and she felt drunk off the attention he was giving her. She'd been so nervous to actually accept, yet here she was having a great time. Why was she always so anxious about these things? She needed to let loose a little more. Maybe Minato was the guy to help her do that.

"Th-thank you.. I've never been called st-strong before. Considering your line of work, I think you'd have to be pretty strong too. So I r-really admire that about you, too."

You don't need to bring him home with you tonight. She told herself. It's just the first date. Get to know him a little better first this time!

"W-We just have a lot in common," she explained. "I d-don't think I've ever met anyone like you b-before. So I'm eager to learn more about you."

[{ 🦋 }] - "Yeah, I wouldn't mind going to a show of hers with you, But only if you're up for it, since it isn't your type of music. It's really great to support your friend, but I wanna make sure you're having a good time too."

It was great that she supported her friend and the idea of going to a metal concert with Mikan, or any concert for that matter. Despite him not minding the music, he also wanted to include Mikan's enjoyment, they didn't have to go to her show if she wasn't in the mood for that kind of music. On a date, Minato liked to take his date's level of fun and enjoyment into account for where the date would be spent. It was better to be fair than having one person deciding all the time, besides, he was sure there were probably other places that she would want to show him as well, and he was always up for a new adventure or experience, especially on a date.

It was hard to believe that they were already making so many potential future date plans, even a vacation to South Korea. This date wasn't a typical one, not only was he a patient and she was his nurse, but everything between them felt so right, so perfect, almost like the world was waiting for them to meet -- the world sometimes worked in funny ways, but if this was one of those things, he was very glad for it.

From the very moment this date began, the Bluenette paranormal investigation could already feel a special type of connection, a unique air of strong attractiveness between the two. The decision to date felt like the right thing to do, he could already feel something building between them, and something deep down inside told him to give it a shot, and he couldn't be any happier for it, this was truly the start of a genuine relationship, something he hadn't had in quite a while now.

[{ 🦋 }] - "It definitely took a few investigations before I was able to handle everything to be honest. So I don't blame you for not being able to handle an actual haunting. There are so many things to adapt to in a paranormal investigation. Not just the spirits themselves, but also the atmosphere they create, and the emotions inside people they try to influence, among other things."

He briefly explained. Minato could go on about paranormal investigations, but he didn't exactly want to go full paranormal nerd on her during their first date, because once he started, it was sometimes hard to stop himself. As she compliments him, Minato is sipping his drink, but a smile forms once he sets his glass back down on the table.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Thanks. That's what everyone usually thinks. I'm complimented a lot, but I think people are just too intimidated by the fact I'm a celebrity in their eyes. I love my fans, but they like to praise me a lot, and it doesn't feel as genuine coming from them. So yeah, I'm having a wonderful time!"

As their food arrived, Minato thanked the waiter who brought it to them before returning his attention to Mikan again as she spoke. Those sweet words of not wanting tonight to end melted his heart a little, a mutual feeling, perhaps he could take a bit of a detour later when it was time to drive her home.

[{ 🦋 }] - "Don't worry, I know what you meant. I don't want tonight to end either. How about I take a bit of a detour when I drive you back later? That way we'll have a bit more time together." He asks, picking up his silverware, and immediately starts digging into his food, listening as she answers.

"Yeah! Her music isn't... r-really my style, but I'm always proud of the success she achieves!" Mikan added. "M-maybe I can get us tickets to her n-next show. If you want to go, that is."

Ibuki's music was... interesting, to say the least. Black Cherry's music was your typical j-pop/rock - the stuff normal teenage girls would be into. But Ibuki's taste in music was more on the heavier side, all metal and strange vocals. Mikan liked her fair share of alternative music, but Ibuki's music could sometimes be a little too much. Still, she was rather supportive of her friend.

This was only their first date and they were already discussing several other date ideas - including going on long-distance trips together. Was this normal? Not really. Then again, this whole situation was a little odd to begin with. He was technically a patient when they first met. They must have been made for each other.

"W-Well, you were scratched up p-pretty bad when you came into the clinic the other night," Mikan thought aloud. "So you're d-definitely strong for d-dealing with that sort of thing all the time..." She seemed rather interested in the information he provided, listening as he explained showing weakness could be one's downfall in paranormal investigations. "As m-much as I love horror m-movies, I can b-be a bit of a scaredy-cat when it comes to r-real life haunts."

"R-Really?" She gave him a rather surprised look. "I would think s-someone as good-looking and friendly as y-you would get asked out far more often... I'm really glad y-you're enjoying this as much as I am."

And to think she'd been so worried about this date going sour.

"I'm almost s-sad that we'll eventually have to go our s-separate ways later on tonight," she confessed. Their order arrived as she spoke and Mikan began nibbling at her food in an attempt to hide the flush of her cheeks. "N-Not that I'm trying to s-suggest anything! I just... I mean... W-Well... I..." Another mouthful might help save her from saying anything too embarrassing.
