While the cafeteria wasn't the finest eating establishment in Halloween it had its perks. Mostly the food was cheaper, it was close and if Mitsu ate fast enough she didn't have to worry about the food morphing into something else. Okay...so the last one wasn't so much a perk as something to keep in mind but that didn't keep her from waltzing into the cafeteria at lunch time, her course instantly taking her to the end of the lunch line where she patiently waited and contemplated her meal options.
It seemed she had caught the very beginning of the lunch hour, the line was fairly long and she was staring daggers at a pudding cup sitting on the counter. It would be her's....she hoped.

Madison, in her guise as a male kitsune, had started her search in the cafeteria. Creepateria. Whatever. Everything had to eat, right? Even Kouki's sighing at her ignorance of Halloween culture and abilities (evidently everything did not have to eat) didn't dissuade her. But it was a good place to people-watch. If surreal, given that it was so very like the cafeteria at her old high school, down to the texture of the plastic trays...
She wasn't sure if golems would eat, but since she'd gone through the trouble of inching through this line (staring around the room was totally acceptable for line-dwellers, given how boring it was) she might as well get something. To be specific, she might as well get the last pudding cup. Yoink!

QAQ Dreams had been shattered in an instant. The lycan watched in longing as the last pudding cup left the counter and into a kitsune's hands. Oh pudding, she hadn't even gotten to know you! And she had been within mere steps of it! If she had reached out she might have gotten it first. Oh cruel fate. Instead she took up staring at the back of the kitsune's head with the biggest puppy eyes she could muster hoping the vibe to put the pudding cup back would surface. ~ You don't want the pudding~ Though her face of concentration made her look like she was going to cry. " P..pudding...." Was the soft whine that left her mouth.

Kouki made a startled noise in her head. We think our quarry has found us, he said, and Madison got the sense that, had the serpent-sword possessed necks to swivel, he would have done so. Obligingly, she turned her own head to see another canine-ish freak with a mask giving her (or was it her food tray?) a longing look.
Well, hey, she said, laughing internally even as she put a perplexed expression onto the golem's face. "What? You... oh, this?" She pointed at the pudding cup with one claw-tipped finger. "Uh... you wanna split it? O-or somethin'?" Madison had seen the '********, girl is gonna cry, DO NOT WANT' face on enough guys to be able to mimic that, too.

Mitsu had continued to stare at the kitsune with longing or rather...the pudding cup when the boil turned and gave her a perplexed expression before pointing to the cup. " Y..you would split it with me?" Her expression eased into something of a smile, her tail beginning to wag. " Yes I would like that very much, the pudding is the best thing here." And to her it was.

Madison grinned. "Sure, why not? Don't think we've met - m'name's Junpei. I'm just a snot, but I've been here long enough to learn 'bout the pudding." She selected a few other things that looked mildly interesting, while bypassing the insanely gross things. "Who're you? Feel like I've seen you around, maybe, but..."

Oh he was a snot! Mitsu beamed at the new boil, grabbing a few things or her tray as well. " My name's Mitsu. Its nice to meet you Junpei." As far as seeing her around Mitsu shrugged. She couldn't remember seeing the boil but it was possible. " I go to the library a lot and I visit quite a few of the dorms. Maybe you spotted me that way? So have you been here long? How do you like it so far?"

"Maybe..." Madison scratched her head, fingers automatically straying behind one ear. Weird. Kouki whispered in her mind, feeding her all the terminology she'd need to use. "I notice people around, here and there." She snagged a pair of spoons, then walked over to the nearest table for two and sat down, putting the pudding cup square in the middle.
"I like it okay, I guess. It's school." She grinned at her. "So it sucks, but not as bad as I was thinkin' it might."

"That's good to hear." It was hard for Mitsu to imagine though. She liked school, it was much nicer than home. "So do you have any friends here?"

"Hmm, a couple. Kane, Derykion, they're my mates." Madison poked at one of the things she'd taken, which appeared to be pasta... except no, those weren't noodles, were they? Ew. "Probably make more in classes. Hey, you're not a snot, are you? Got any recs for teachers to avoid?" She made the golem grin toothily.

Mitsu took up her fork and started to move things around on her plate. She had something that resembled noodles as well but they slithered and moved like snakes. It didn't seem to bother her though as she scooped up a bunch of them and shoved them in her mouth. "I'm sure you will, classes are a good place to start for meeting new people. Ponchos are good for Savage classes."
The names the kitsune had dropped caught her attention though. "Oh you know Kane and Derykion?"
Mitsu swallowed hard looking suddenly hopeful. "Have you seen or heard from Derykion by any chance? I actually met with Kane and he can't seem to locate him."

"Yeah, we're cool..." Madison gave Mitsu a quizzical look. "Bro hasn't been around for a while, yeah. Kane was getting kinda panicky over it, but I figure he just wandered off or something... it's not like him, though. Maybe if it was Kane who wandered off, well, he's a zombie so his brain mighta rotted a little more, but..."

Hmmm, Junpei didn't seem as worried about Derykion as Kane was but Mitsu was still concerned. If it wasn't in his nature to wander off then where could he have gotten to? It made her panic a little that something terrible might have happened.
"I wonder where he could be..." Picking at her food now Mitsu looked to the kitsune. "Do you remember where you last saw him or when you talked to him last?"
