Tomoe-24:

[They. Did not have so much of this kind of thing back home. Or, well, they might have one smaller convenience store, not with this much variety. Colette can't help but to stare at the options. As if taking a moment to choose. She says this aloud, softly, more to herself but someone else nearby might overhear her as she exclaims:]

I didn't realize there were so many different kinds of options....this place has so many! I haven't tried this one before? I wonder if it's tasty? Or if I should try that one we had back home I know.....? Maybe...should I eeny miney....?

[Colette.....you just wanted a drink and a little snack while out and about....don't over think it....]

Pegasus Arcade:

Wow....!!

[Colette has heard of the idea of arcades but it isn't something they really had back in her small village out more rurally. So of course she is amazed, distracted by all the lights and sounds of so many games at once. She is initially just observing, noting which games seem popular or ones she might have at least vaguely heard of if not played herself on a home console. She might come over to have a look at some of the games, one that might be more popular with others playing.]

I think I heard about this one, but I hadn't tried it myself.

Dog Walking:

Caramel! Wai -- ah!

[Colette stumbles as she walks her dog, a golden retriever, who excitedly bounds over to whoever might be walking the other direction. Caramel stops right in front of the other person, glancing up at them as if expecting pets. Colette ensures a tighter hold on the leash, apologizing.]

Ah, sorry. She's just really friendly and excited seeing all the new people since we moved here.

[Colette explains, reaching a hand briefly to pet Caramel behind the ear. ]

Aquarium:

Aw, look at them!!

[Colette is easy to please, to say the least. Admiring the different fish and aquatic life. Back home there hadn't been an aquarium so she hadn't gotten the chance to explore like this, to see these creatures up quite so close. She giggles as one of the fish come right up against the glass, pressing her face up against it too.]

I want to go see if they have starfish too....!

[She is on her own exploring. Having reassured her father and grandmother she would get in touch if she needed them with her phone. She has yet to start really making friends to be able to get them to come along as she starts getting settled, but surely that would come in time. As she checks the map and tries to figure where the starfish are and possibly bumps into someone.]

Ah, s-sorry!

Hakuchou Dance School:

Ah, maybe....? It does look like fun! I am kind of clumsy though....

[It's nice to daydream? Colette isn't sure if it might be a good idea to try something like that given her being such a klutz. That there would be a higher chance of her tripping and hurting herself somehow. Let alone with her medical issue. Whether she would realize unless someone else pointed it out if it was something more visible. Still, she does make note of the option being there at least, when she spots the building from outside.]

Yumemigaoka Kitties:

So cute! I'm more used to dogs, but cats are cute too!

[Colette is.....just a tad biased in loving dogs. Just a little. But she does have to smile at seeing the cat café when she is out and about exploring and taking in the city. She knew of the idea of cat cafes, but had never actually been to one before herself. She is kind of tempted to go in and get a little something while enjoying the cats, as she approaches the window and gives a wave to one of the cats sitting at the windowsill.]

I've been so bad at actually giving people my name lately, oops. I just get to talking and then whoops, it's been twenty minutes and we're just "hey you"-ing at each other. It's a problem I'm working on. [And with all her other problems, she's not working on it very fast. Priorities!] Still, nice to meet you, Colette-san. I'd offer you my usual friendship cookies, but. [She gestures at the sun, in the interest of not repeating herself too much.]

It's important! I want to share the happiness of meeting new people, and if I can crystallize that feeling into something sweet and special... [A much more tender look. She wants to be able to commemorate when she does something she can be proud of, and actually making friends is up there.]
