[x] Stay in the clearing.

---

Grimnír decides to stay in the clearing. It is a nice day, and there is nothing wrong with enjoying it. He still doesn't remember much from his past, but somehow this feels nice. He wouldn't be surprised if he used to lay down on the grass and watch the clouds for hours at a time while waiting for classes.

"Classes," he says aloud. He isn't sure where that came from, but he doesn't mind. For now, it is enough to stay here and enjoy the moment.

He hears a few footsteps nearby, but he can't be bothered to turn his head. The figure stops behind him, casting its shadow on the grass.

"So this is where you've been, ~ze."

"Couldn't help it," he says. "I looked out the window and saw such pleasant weather."

Marisa takes a seat beside him and starts looking out at the clouds. For a few minutes, they watch the sky, each engrossed in their own thoughts. Grimnír's mind starts wandering.

"That one kinda looks like a mushroom, ~ze!" Marisa says, pointing at the sky.

"Yeah, I saw that one earlier," he replies. "Made me think about you."

"..."

"I-I mean that it reminded me of you," he stammers. "Y-you're interested in mushrooms and pretty."

Marisa gives him a sly smile.

"I-I mean that you're pretty interested in mushrooms!" he says.

She giggles and sits herself closer beside him. Before he can react, she starts ruffling his hair. He feels himself blushing, but he doesn't fight her off. It feels quite nice, actually. A moment later, she stands up and looks up at the sky. The shadow of her hat is hiding her facial expression.

"You're pretty interesting too ~ze." she says quietly.

They continue watching the clouds in silence.
