By the time someone had finally sat down next to her, she had gotten lost in some stray thoughts, doodling absently on the bottom of the page. She was going off the assumption that the newcomer had also pulled out a phone and was busy checking some sort of social media or texting friends when she glanced over at him, ready to turn back to her drawing at once, but hesitated as she noticed that he was actually looking at her.

She blinked once, glancing down herself at the little reptile holding onto its own tail, trying to understand what was so fascinating about it. Sure, it was a little unusual, but...

Nice to make your acquaintance Ryu. I’m Haley.” She responded with one of her best smile’s, offering one of her hands and trying to remember if the Japanese did handshakes. Should she bow instead?
