She felt her hair becoming as smooth as she had ever had it before. She had done as she was told and brushed it until there was not a single knot. Her hair was short only to a little past her shoulders. She had asked Rinko for help considering she knew things about this that she did not. As she moved her hand through her dark hair she gazed at her brown eyes and sighed a little. She really was going way too hard to look nice wasn’t she?
She placed her mirror and brush down. She stood up slowly and walked backwards to she could look at herself. She decided, despite all protests from herself, she decided to wear a skirt. It was cloud in cloud why did everyone still wear these types of clothing? She decided to go with a blue skirt and blue top with a yellow shawl over it. She had even gotten her ears pierced for this...they still hurt but she did manage to put in some basic earrings. She didn’t have anything else to make her flashy. She was basic in most regards but even Rinko said she looked fine.
There was this ticket she submitted that she thought at first was a joke, only to realize that eventually she got a letter in the mail informing her of what was to come. She was going on a blind date. A person by the name of Suzuki Setsu was supposed to be her partner. She had no idea who he was or anything really but the idea of date was not terrible. She had mentioned such things with Osuteno so maybe this would at least be a first good experience.
She had been told by the company that they would be filmed during their date but that they would also handle any normal expenses. This made her feel very uncomfortable but she guessed it was going to be like anything else. If she dated in the future people might watch…? It was a loose theory but if it got her to speak and act somewhat normal then…
She looked annoyed. At this point in her training she felt uncomfortable as such she did take a small purse. She figured in case she needed to pay for something and in case anything happened she could use a ninja scroll. It was weird now that she carried around weapons...but it felt right at this point. Besides Setsu was going down the same road...he would understand...right?
She took the keys from her table and left her small apartment, thinking she had better get their at least a little early. She did not want to be late…

As she got the the meeting place she looked up at the statue. Aion the Dawnbringer and his fountain...this was where they were supposed to meet. As she looked at the statue she felt new determination. She believe in Raiden and his power and as such she also highly respected Aion. It only made sense to have their blessing. She took up her hands and sent up a prayer to the both of them. Hopefully this would go well.
As she looked around she noticed multiple camera crews setting up. This event had quite a few blind date couples getting together. As such she moved over to find the group that would be recording them. As she came over though one person shouted at her, “Shh! No no go back! We need to film the meeting. If he is as early as you we will miss it. Just pretend we do not exist!” She blushed a bit and nodded returning to the statue.
As she waited she really wondered what Setsu looked for in a girl. They did not really get much information about each other other than their names and a general description. She looked down at her shoes and realized she probably should have gotten new ones...this outfit was new...she figured if they walked a lot she wanted to be comfortable...she also made sure not to have a watch or anything. She needed to give Setsu at least her full attention.
What time was it though? She wondered what would happen if he was really older…? Her face a slight shade of pink would probably not go away until she was distracted. She attempted to look around and find the man who would be her partner for the next few hours.
