It's time for a picnic! Are you on a date or just hanging out with a friend? What kind of food did you bring--homemade, store-bought, or take-out? The nice thing about picnics is you can have them just about anywhere, like the park or your front lawn or that little grassy patch by your apartment building. You don't even have to sit on the ground, honestly, that's what picnic tables are for! Hopefully it's a nice sunny day and you don't get rained out, but maybe you brought an umbrella just in case.

[Sayu gets a small amount of joy at the confused and disapproving looks that random strangers give them. She knows they're an odd couple and she thinks it's very funny when other people react to that. Talking to Mello about extremely normal people things is hilarious, though. It's like talking to an alien. Sayu takes a bite of an onigiri that she bought and looks out at the park.]

Mm, sort of. It's fun to come out with friends when the seasons change. It's really pretty in the spring, you know?

[She looks back at him.]

Have you really never eaten outside before?

[Mello's never taken particular notice of which seasons are prettier than others or anything like that, just which ones are colder or warmer, rainier or sunnier. And he sure as hell didn't grow up with more than Matt as a friend and he's already considered how little Matt goes outside. So he scoffs in response and takes a good sized bite of chocolate before responding.]

Never. Maybe if the orphanage forced us as kids, but nothing I remember.

[He looks upwards at the sky through the leaves of the tree. Maybe there's something to bother admiring about it, see whatever Sayu sees in this stuff. It's hard to, honestly, all he sees are leaves, nothing beyond that honestly.]

[Oh right, she always forgets he grew up in an orphanage. She's not sure how she always forgets, she hangs out at his apartment with Matt enough. Sayu watches her boyfriend for a moment. He looks so out of place she can't help but grin at him.]

Sometimes talking to you is kind of like talking to an alien. Have you really never noticed it's nice to be out in nature every once in a while?

[Sayu knocks their shoulders together affectionately and points towards the sky with the hand that isn't holding what remains of her onigiri.]

Look, isn't it pretty how the the light is coming through the clouds?

[Then she points at a patch of flowers nearby.]

Or the color and shape of the flowers?

[Then she points up in the direction of the trees above them where Mello was looking moments ago.]

Or the way the wind sounds rustling through the leaves? It's relaxing!
