"Yeah, the ocean is pretty cool. Not to rush you or anything, but are you ready to go?" Orion asked, pushing the remainder of his food away. He hoped once they got outside, he could think of something to say to her.

Jora looked down at her plate. "Yeah almost." She said taking another bite. She looked down at her sketchbook and picked it up putting it back in her sleeve where it belonged. She took a gulp of water to wash down her food and stood up patting her face again. "Come on let's go before we get close to missing the sunset." She said smiling starting to walk towards the doors.

Orion hurried after her, before realizing he had left his book of sketchbook of constellations on the table. "Keep going. I'll be right back," he said, turning back toward the table to get it. He reached there table, only to find a group of people we already occupying it. He glanced over the surface of the table, confirming it wasn't there. He turned his gaze to the floor, but it wasn't there either. He wanted to ask the people on the table, but first of all, they were all talking, and second of all, he hadn't had good experiences when people learned he had a sketchbook in the past. Orion wondered if they had accidentally (or purposely) thrown it out. He threaded his way to the trash can, but if it was in there, it was buried. He looked at the floor on his way back to Jora, wondering if it had gotten kicked around.

Jora hadn't listened to Orion and stayed right where she was when he went back. She saw him coming back and he looked a little distraught. She walked over to him following his gaze around on the floor. "What's missing?" She asked him as she got close enough for him to hear her over the crowd.

"My constellation sketchbook," Orion said. He had lost his usual cheery air. If you had just taken it with you this wouldn't have been a problem. He glanced around. "I don't understand how it could just dissapear like that.... and in only a few seconds too.

(Want to throw in some NPC's? I just realized that Orion's notebook couldn't have really gone far, so someone must have taken it.)

(Shhhhh! I have a plan! I'm gonna bring A'ine into this for a bit....in a little bit XD)

Jora I nod and look back at the table. "Did you ask them yet? Maybe they know where it is." She asked wondering why he wouldn't ask them.

"I guess....." Orion said, reluctant to ask, but knowing it was his last chance. He walked back toward the table, hoping Jora would come. He walked up to the table and spoke sort of loudly, "Excuse me, but I was wondering if you saw a notebook?" he asked.

(Then Ember's there as well!)

(A'ine's not at that table just so you know. I's go a plan and now it time for random person! It's Kali in case ya didn't know!)

Jora stood back a little and watched waiting. A girl who seemed to be a set of three nodded but didn't speak. "Where did it go?" Jora asked a little curious as to why the girl had not just said so in the first place. The girl held up a finger and pulled a not pad from her bag and wrote quickly. She showed it to Orion. 'A couple of girls picked it up to find the person who owned it.' She smiled at Orion and Jora.

"Thanks!" said Orion, relieved that these people had been friendly. "Do you know where they went?" he asked. That was considerate of those girls.

The girl looked around the room and shook her head. She looked back down at her note pad and wrote again 'I don't know where they went but one of the girl's had short white hair.'

Meanwhile...
A'ine smiled up at Ember as she turned another page of the book. "These are really good see?" She held out the book for Ember to see. "I wonder who drew this."
