[The top of the page is... weird. It's stained red at the top corner, and it was creeping in about an inch or two before it stopped. Touching it does nothing as it just feels like paper. Someone spilled ink. Or something. Hours later, there's writing:]


its me again
no ass-kicking requests this time, sorry to disappoint
I wanna try lookin for a friend who shows up in my dreams sometimes so its dreamwalk time

dont know how its gonna go, but if you see alleys or bits of Tokyo sometime soon that's me, ignore it

also if you're a lazy fuck and want lunch, dinner, groceries or coffee delivered to your place, write to me. givin part-time work a shot. i can take your stuff over, or if you want my dog can bring it. i mean, who doesn't want a cute dog bringin them coffee, right?

Maple Leaf is really big but she's nice. likes people.

anyway thats all I got.

(On a first read through, it read simply enough. Just hanging out with Denji like they regularly do. But with all the scratched out bits in place just to ask to do stuff, it made her wonder. Then a thought comes to mind that delays her response.

What would make it so hard to just ask to hang out? It's normal for them to. Unless...it's not just a normal hangout? Oh sweet Satan, is he asking her out? Is she officially at that point in her life? Okay, Octavia, don't freak out. Don't make it weird. He's a friend! And this is just...a normal thing. Right?)

Yeah! There's plenty of stuff to do!

(Fuck, are the exclamation marks too much? Is this really something she's worrying about now? Funny how after the past few months, she finally has a reminder that she's still a teenager.)

Like hang out somewhere until we get bored and hang out somewhere else.

I’m not a lazy fuck. I just live in a treehouse and would like coffee delivered. I doubt your dog could climb, or is that wrong?

Do you already have a job aside from the part-time work you’re looking for?

Next time you go on an adventure that requires fighting call for me. I'm a knight and I'm used to exploring dangerous places.

Well, I wouldn't mind taking up your offer. This old man would love to be your customer.

Maple Leaf sounds cute. Would she allow me to pet her?

[Very important question.]

[Beat knows how it feels to look for someone over a long period of time. So he's curious to know.]
