[color=f7941d]Ethan turned to her for a moment, a confused look on his face. 
“B...but why don't you want me to learn your name?” He asked, looking a little crestfallen. “I thought we were becoming friends.”[/color]

[color=0054a6]“Appreciated that you have told me the details.” Rei replied to Amaterasu, “I’ll let it go this once, avoid it, at least during the festival.” He also noted that mark on Ethan’s face, slightly charred before looking back at the both of them. Another soft sigh escaping his lips, he heeded her request and did not mention her name. He promptly turned around without a word of ‘goodbye’ and paced himself back to his table, where his food had probably gone cold.
On his way, a waitress bumped into him by accident, a tray full of plates falling, before it crashed he used his magic to prevent them from doing so, and lifted them back onto the tray. He continued his strut to his table, sat down, and began eating. The server carrying the tray was bewildered and slightly blushed, she was somewhat thankful, but couldn’t bare to say a word of thanks to Rei. Not that Rei expected it.

The food was cold after all.[/color]

[color=f7941d]Ethan looked at the mage leaving, then looked back at his...er...acquaintance. He wasnt quite sure what to think, and suddenly felt quite awkward. If she wasn't interested in being friends, then why was she here? Why would anyone want to go to a cafe with someone if they weren't friends? And after he had decided to pay for bo…

...oh.

...right.

He looked at her for a moment. He was tempted to ask her exactly why she was here, but decided against it. For the moment.

“So...umm…” he started, not sure how to finish that sentance with his sudden thoughts.

“...are we actually friends? Or are you here for a different reason?” He blurted out.[/color]

[color=cf5300]Amaterasu watched Rei leave the table and show off his super cool powers. “Pfft…” she sighed, she wished her magic could do that sometimes. But she can only burn people. Which is what she has been accustomed to for years upon years of knowing the magic. She sighed softly and looked to Ethan before smiling and acting cheerful as if that whole encounter with Rei didn’t even happen.

When Ethan asked his question, she curved her brows out and gave the man a glance before answering his question “... Yes … We are friends” she played with her hair. She doesn’t know if she actually means that or not, but she can at least try to ease Ethan’s mind. “Oh and, my name… is Amaterasu, named after the goddess of the sun” She stated, just because she knew this man would probably keep trying to find out.[/color]

[color=f7941d]Ethan gave her a smile, relieved to hear what she said, although he still wasn’t entirely convinced. “Amaterasu….that's kind of a nice name. Fitting too, as you seem to like burning things. A lot. It's kinda cool.”

Looking over to the mage who had just left, he looked back at her. “So..are you and him...er...involved? Not that who you date is any of my business, so i’m not sure why i’m asking…” He stuttered, realising he had just dug himself into a hole.[/color]

[color=cf5300]Amaterasu smiled at his compliment “Thankyou…” she said and stared at Rei once more, no matter how much she stares at him: she keeps saying to herself that she will never even have a good friendship with him. Even though he is really cute, she can’t really do anything much about it. When she heard Ethan’s question, she looked to Ethan and had the reddest face ever, kind of like a tomato. “W-well, not really… it sucks, I really do like him. But he scares me too.” she waggled her finger at him, as if she was adamant with her words.

She finally looked back to her half finished cake and finally ate the rest of it “Oh man, that’s delicious!” she grinned.

Well, she was grinning until she heard some gasps and some person shouting. This got Amaterasu curious. But it was only a waiter spilling a hot coffee on one of his customers.

“Well, that’s him fucked” she stated, looking to Rei once more to see what his reaction will be “This… is probably not going to go down well” She was looking at the scene once more and then seen the man standing up and slapping the waiter in the face. “Oh, dear…”[/color]

[color=0054a6]
The smack echoed across the room, Rei stopped from placing the food in his mouth and got up once more. Making his way to the source of the sound. His glare ever present, and it’s plastered all over the man who had just slapped the waiter.  The man’s pretentious look quickly faded as he saw Rei approaching, replaced by a look of apprehension and fear.
Rei was the type of person who didn’t stand for injustices, despite him not showing it that much, and this was just a mistake. He didn’t say a word, instead grabbing the man by the collar and holding him upwards from the ground. This was possible for him because of the training he goes through, especially under his powers. He looked him square in the eye, his sky eyes gleaming under the darkness of the cafe,  
“Enough.” 

With one word he managed to freeze the noise permeating the room, Rei had the mind to carry him and throw him outside, but the manager intervened and politely asked Rei to put him down. Rei complied, dropping the man on his bum and quietly walked back to his seat, the room now filled with whispers directed towards Rei and his actions.

The food’s even colder now.[/color]

[color=cf5300]Amaterasu looked to Rei and panicked ever so slightly, she really did re-confirm herself that she really was scared of the S class mage. But it does inspire her to an extent. She just knows that it isn’t going to go as well as it originally intended to be. Coughing ever so lightly she stood up and looked to Ethan “I’ll pay” she stated, she was originally going to let him pay. But he was good company so she offered to pay in return. “As thank you… for being good company, even though we are rivals. I will still try to burn you, but I won’t forget this moment”[/color]

[color=f7941d]Ethan smiled as he watched the other mage as he lifted some jerk up by his collar, before dropping him and returning to his seat. He gave the mage an approving thumbs up, although he doubted if the mage actually saw. They never did. Still, it was pretty decent how he helped that waiter. Ethan would have done it himself, but...this was one of the few buildings that he liked, so he wouldnt have been able to do much...sometimes he hated his lack of finesse.

...most of the time, he loved it though.

Turning back to Ama, he was about to comment on what had just happened, only to be surprised as she got up, and offered to pay. 
“But...i thought we were splitting…” he mumbled as she looked to him, before shutting himself up and composing himself. Today had just been full of surprises.

“Thank you!” HE said brightly, “But i must insist that we both pay! It’s only fair. You seem really nice though! Maybe we should hangout again sometime! How about we hang out again in a few days? I’ve needed a new sparring partner since the accident with the mime...”[/color]

[color=cf5300]Amaterasu sighed softly and looked at him before nodding. “Okay then, we can split…” Amaterasu originally didn’t want to split the money as she wanted free food in general, but cheaper food sounds fair enough in the eyes of the fire lady.

“And as much as I would like to spar with you again, it will be unlikely… we are rivals… remember, I will always be burning people anyway… It will be useless” Amaterasu stated as she looked to him. She knows everything will be okay somehow with them constantly sparring, but she will have to catch him first, and the two will need to meet up as rivals and not friends, or she wouldn’t be able to cope with much more. “I think the festival will be over soon. We may need to return to our guilds, will I burn you next time though, nobody will ever know”

Amaterasu looked to Ethan though and held her hand out towards him “It was… er… lovely meeting you” Amaterasu had her hand, heating up her hand to a reasonably hot temperature so when they did shake hands, he would be in trouble. This was to remind him that they are rivals and not buddy buddy. But if they did work together on something then they could act as friends then.

[color=f7941d]Ethan was a little disappointed when she politely turned down his sparring offer, but understood her reasons perfectly. He often forgot about how seriously people took this feud.
“It...er…” he said, a little flustered. “It was nice meeting you too.” He then proceeded to take her hand and shook it tightly.

And...tried not to wince as Ama burned his hand while he did so. He stared at her for a moment, and slowly pulled his hand away before the heat could solder them together.
“...thank you.”
