Pearleane's gaze drifted from the station to the girl who had joined her in the compartment. Her crimson lips parted in a gasp, not even hearing the girl come in. Her mother had let her wear makeup for the special day, and she felt quite mature. [i]"I didn't even he-"[/i] Pearleane started before the light featured girl held up a small white board.

[b]“Hello. Sorry for intruding,”[/b] she wrote, holding it up for them to see before erasing it.

Pearleane was fascinated with this young girl's idea of introduction and a grin plastered across her face. Perhaps it was some sort of game? Pearleane loved games. She nodded, [i]"You're not intruding!"[/i] Pearleane exclaimed as the girl began erasing. Pearleane waited in anticipation before the girl held up the board once more.

[b]“My name is Dani. May I ask what your name is?”[/b]

[i]Pearleane!"[/i] she bursted out as if answering a trivia question in a game. She giggled, [i]"Nice to meet you Dani. Why are you using a board? Cat got your tongue?"[/i] The girl didn't have much space for being too shy and quiet about asking questions about people. She didn't mean to be mean about it, just genuinely curious. She played with one of her braids as she waited for the girl to write her answer back to her.
