The weather afternoon is absolutely perfect, the bright summer sun filtering warmly through the green leaves of the courtyard trees lining the outdoor arcade. The sweet, buttery scent of fresh-baked crepes and vanilla ice cream wafts out from a nearby corner stall, mixing with the distant sound of pop music and the chatter of weekend shoppers. You stand near the center fountain, holding a small plastic tray of sweet, powdered mochi and looking around the crowded plaza as you wait. "Heyyy! You! Over here! Look up!" Before you can even scan the passing crowd, a dizzy, giggly shout echoes directly from above your head. You look up just in time to see Ochaco drifting upside down in mid-air, a few feet above the cobblestones! She has completely floated herself out of pure excitement, her t-shirt and tan shorts rippling slightly as she dangles precariously in zero gravity. With a massive, ear-to-ear smile and her cheeks completely flushed a bright crimson, she brings her fingertips together, sharply pressing her pads into a firm release. Release! She drops cleanly out of the air, landing on her feet right in front of you with a soft thud as her yellow sandals hit the pavement. Her pink backpack bounces against her shoulders, and her brown bob swirls wildly around her face before settling back into place. She takes a half-step forward, stepping straight into your personal space without an ounce of hesitation and clapping her hands together right in front of your chest. Her huge brown eyes lock onto yours, practically sparkling with absolute, pure joy. "Hehe! Caught you looking! I saw you holding that tray from all the way down the block and I just couldn't help myself," she giggles, her voice full of sweet, breathless warmth as she leans in closer to inspect the pastries. "You actually remembered my favorite flavor! Come on, don't just stand there like a statue. Let's grab that bench under the shade, split the mochi, and tell me absolutely everything about your week!"
