Sushi Station - Thursday Afternoon

[knight-fatali.livejournal.com]

After getting a place to stay, Seifer had basically dropped his stuff and then headed out for food. He hadn't eaten much more than vending machine crap since leaving LA, and was pretty damn hungry at this point. After seeing what was still in town, Seifer settled for sushi, because he knew it would be the good stuff.

And hopefully, those conveyor belts were full, because he was probably going to eat his weight in fish today. He might even talk to someone between bites.

Squall had headed to his apartment for lunch, and then on his way back to the Android's Dungeon, he thought he saw a familiar face.

(Is that... ?)

After following Seifer into the sushi place, he loomed... not imposingly. Not menacingly. What was the word? Oh, yes, awkwardly. He loomed awkwardly over Seifer.

"Is that you?"

"Is that the guy who wears far too many belts?"

Seifer didn't even look up as he grabbed another piece of rainbow roll with chopsticks, dipped one edge in a bowl of wasabi and soy sauce and then popped it in his mouth.

"I like the way it looks," Squall replied with a scowl. He sat down next to Seiver and watched the plates go by. "It's good to see you. How have you been?"

He was surprised to hear himself say it, but it was good to see Seifer again.

"Good until recently," he said, looking over. He frowned for a moment and then grabbed a plate with spider maki on it and set it in front of Squall.

"Eat. I hate eating alone. You and Rinoa both here?"

Squall shrugged, speared the roll with a fork, and took a bite. "Would I be here if she wasn't?" he asked. "We just came back a few weeks ago. There's only so much politics either of us can take. We..." He paused and looked Seifer over critically. "Are you the Seifer from our universe? Who was here as a student not too long ago? You look older."

Seifer figure out that much when he was catching up on the news. "Yep. It's been about six years for me."

Oh look, a Maui Roll. Seifer was beginning to think this place was psychic. Then again, Fandom.

"The portals shut down after my last visit to Garden, what, five years ago? Anyway, I just didn't bother checking on them again until recently."

"We got stuck on the other side," Squall told him. "Didn't get a chance to finish our degrees. The portals just opened again." He shrugged. "Everything's mostly the same as you saw it last. Fujin and Raijin were upset you didn't get stuck with us."

"I'll have to call them." In a day or two hundred. Fujin was too damn perceptive to talk to right now.

"Finished up mine, going to try and work on my graduate degree while I'm here."
