Otto was startled out of his hatred of mankind as Molly reached over him. He looked from her back to the position she'd corrected his hand posture to with confusion. This wouldn't work. This was stupid. He'd fail and then he'd have to destroy everything and it would be Japan's fault, not his.
He grumbled and tried picking up some noodles... So far so good. He leaned over and shoved what he could into his mouth.
...it... it was amazing. It showed in his features. "Mmm.." Finally, he could eat! Otto continued eating, but once again he lost his chopstick to the bowl. He fumbled trying to remember how they were held again.
Damnit...
Otto poked Molly's shoulder, pointing at his hands again. It was his sign that he needed her help.

Molly was, admittedly, plowing through her bowl as well.
Girl could eat, alright? When it was this good as well, she couldn’t help it. It seemed to do wonders for the fatigue she was feeling earlier from the battle as well. Molly paused as her shoulder was poked, and had a noodle dangling from her mouth as she looked over at Otto curiously. Oh. She slurped it up, and then smiled sheepishly.
“Okay. I’ll show you one better! Watch me.” She showed him how to hold the chopsticks in a stationery way, and then brought her bowl up to her lips. She then, more or less, started to shovel the food to her mouth. Hey. Once again. It got the job done. After demonstrating that rather lady-like technique to Otto, she looked over at Deryk curiously. “Have you gone on any other external missions since our one to Alaska?” She questioned.

Since Deryk had been focusing soley on eating, it actually didn't take him much time before he finished the bowl of ramen. It was that damn good. Letting out a happy and satisfied sigh, he straightened up and took another swig of the tea. He was going to miss this food.
"Hm?" glancing at Molly, he realized he was being addressed, "Oh. Uh yeah. went to Ireland."
He didn't explain any further. That one had been... less smooth than this mission. Considerably so.

Otto watched this new technique, his mouth hanging open. He asked as if she'd done him a disservice holding out on him. He huffed, and took his chop sticks again, picked up the bowl, and ate the way Molly just showed him. What did he care about manners? He was hungry. This was his kind of style.
Otto didn't get in on their conversation. He had to catch up on eating, shovelling food into his mouth.

She giggled, and it didn’t take too long before she finished her bowl as well. Molly rested her chopsticks on top, and carried on her conversation with Deryk while Otto finished his bowl. At the mention of Ireland, Molly’s eyes widened and she leaned towards the Death Hunter. “…Where in Ireland!?”
Her home nation had an external mission there and she missed it!? Oh no!

"Uuuh.. Some small town in the north. Wasn't really sure what city. Didn't get that info. Black dog was there. Maiming pets and such," Deryk replied.
"Maybe Jude or Ariane know. They were there too. Oh yeah. Also went to China once. That... mission.. not so good."
That one had been a disaster for a whole other reason. Angry Chinese farmers.

A small clack was heard as Otto set down his bowl and chopsticks. He licked his lips, wiped his mouth on a sleeve and turned to Deryk and Molly. "There. Done. Now we go?" They ate the damn ramen. That was the deal.
It still seemed Otto was dead set on going back. He didn't seem to care they were enjoying themselves.

Well…at least it wasn’t like he listed the city she was born and raised in. “O…oh…did…you guys catch the creature that was harming the poor pets?” Her expression went wide as he mentioned China. Oh wow, he went quite a few places! “Did you see the Great Wall of China?” She asked curiously. “How come…it wasn’t a good mission?”
Molly looked back at Otto as he finished and spoke up. Oh. She hadn’t forgotten. “Just one more stop, please, Otto, please?” She begged, her lip quivering as she clasped her hands and stared at him. It was then the chef dropped off their bill, and luckily circled the total for them. Molly quivered her lip at Otto once more before she fished out the right amount of yen to pay for the bill, placing it on the counter. She then stared back at Otto, pocketing her wallet and clasping her hands.
“Pretty please? It’s the last stop, I promise.”

"Yeah. Managed to stop it. Gave a bit of trouble though," Deryk said. He then furrowed his brow and shook his head at the next question, "Nope. Was in southern China. Nowhere near the wall. And uh. Angry farmers. Lets just leave it at that. Yes."
Scratching his head under his hood, he noticed Otto finished his food now.
"Might be some interesting things in the store. Actually... something I want to pick up. Not sure if it'll be in there though. Might go to a different spot."

Damnit, these two were set on exploring. Otto seemed livid, angrily curling his lip, even going red in the face. "There ain't nuthin for me to do here. I'll be bored out of my skull." Not to mention feeling like a country mouse in a big city, along with all the weird imagery he could not wrap his head around.
But he was out numbered. He was the only one who didn't want to do it.
"Fine. Whatever." He relented,scoffing as he got to his feet and stormed onto the street. "Hurry it up.."

“O..oh…alright…” Molly replied in regards to Deryk’s avoidance of the topic. She’d leave it at that. The important thing right now was that he was here with them and in one piece!
At Otto’s words though…
“Eeeeeee!” Molly squealed, easily drawing many stares from the other people in the stand. What a bunch of crazy cosplayers, seriously. "Thank you, Otto, thank you!" The Mist trainee latched onto Otto tightly for a moment before releasing him and practically flailing across the busy street. “Come on, Deryk!” She cried, and immediately halted to a stop once she reached one of the figure shop fronts. Oh my gosh. Every shelf was jam packed with anime and video game figures. Bix would like something from here, right!?
Molly ended up gravitating towards one side of the shop, and she stopped, because it was like the light of heaven sparkled down on this one corner. Bishoujo Marvel figures. Where could she go wrong!?

Perking up as Otto relented to them, Deryk hopped out of his seat and quickly made his way over to the shop across the street. This was. Amazing! He couldn't spend too much time here though. He did want to pick up some tea for Leon. That probably wasn't sold in a figurine shop.
The trainee did browse a little though, marveling at a few of the things he saw.
A few of them were also a little... ... on the hardcore side. Seeing them brought a little bit of color to his face before he quickly hurried on back.
"Molly. Gonna go to the shop next door. Picking something up for someone," he nodded before making his way over to do just that.

Ugh! Hugs again. This girl was getting waaaaay too comfortable with him. Soon she'd feel entitled, just like Reine and Eva. He could not let that happen! The grumbling teen followed after them, crossing his arms and doing his best to look as absolutely impatient as possible. Foot tapping included.
Woah wait, they were going into different shops? That meant...
Otto stood between the two shops, looking from one to the other. No way. He would not step foot in these weirdo places! He huffed and leaned his back on the window, staring down at his feet as people walked by. He wanted to go back. Back to a place that made sense.

“Okay Deryk! Don’t wander off too far though, alright? Stay where I can see you!” Wait, seriously? Did she just say that? Yep.
The Misty was now occupying herself with giggling over all the Bishoujo Marvel figures. Woah. Those ladies had some really nice bodies. Molly was feeling envious.
: C
Oh well…hopefully Bix would like one, right? It seemed to combine a few of his passions:sexy girls and spandex anime and comics. Molly looked over them more closely before she settled on one of Phoenix, who was clad in a white uniform with gold trim. Oh man…she…was just like them! Sold. Molly was sold. She picked up the box, and wandered further into the shop, and dished out the yen for it. She then ventured out holding a plastic bag, and went to lean on the window with Otto. She stared up, and then down around at the people, who were still glancing at them.
“I never thought I’d be able to come here.” She uttered happily.

Deryk didn't hear Molly. He was too busy at the moment. But he wasn't too far off anyway. The next shop had a variety of many different things. And teas were certainly one of them. At least he was pretty certain it was tea. It looked like it was tea. Well, in any case, he grabbed a box to buy.
It didn't take too long before that transaction was done and he was back out onto the streets.
