<div align=center>Food sounded like a good idea. It was beginning to get cold again and Ania was right, the animals had all gone into their houses, most likely to curl up and go to sleep. Smart. The boy thought, curling up and falling asleep for a few hours didn't sound all that bad, though he imagined they slept on straw rather than a nice comfy bed. Straw was alright if you had fur, though. You didn't need a blanket if you had fur. He hoped it wouldn't rain, the sky was dark and the day had dragged on. Hadrian didn't like the rain, it soaked through his hair and made him catch a cold.

Hadrian thought they probably did have cuddly bears in the gift shop, it looked large when they'd passed it earlier going to see the animals. "I think they probably do." They could have a look round after they'd eaten, collect some things back at Ania's dorm and then go back to his own house, if she still wanted to, anyway. Her next question, he didn't really know the answer to. "I... Uh..." He paused for a moment, frowning and trying to figure out the answer. "I guess, they're just a lot closer than normal relationships." He said, after a while. "I suppose they want to be close to each other, they do nice things for each other..."</div>

Hmm. Nice things for each other? That didn't sound like any relationship she knew of. Maybe the definition varied from person to person. She could agree, though. She wanted to be close and do nice things for Hadrian. Did sharing food count? Hopefully he liked chicken nuggets. Taking his hand, her fingers found their home in the spaces between his. "I'm glad you like me." Shaking off the uncharacteristic affectionate feelings, Ania pulled out her trusty little zoo map. There were several restaurants placed strategically around the park, all with various animalesque names. It was a trick to examine a map one handed, and Ania shook it out a couple times to flatten the paper.

"Hey, there's a um ... Zebra Cafe? It's close by where we are now. Oh, there's even a restaurant shaped like a hatching egg. They have such neat building designs. " There were a couple random food stands dotting the campus, but dark clouds were rolling in. "It's not gonna rain, is it?" She liked the rain well enough, just as long as she was inside.

<div align=center>Hadrian smiled softly, I'm glad you like me. That made him feel all cute and fuzzy and he didn't know why. It was a strange feeling to him, one he didn't oft feel. "How could I not?" He asked, softly. He was glad she liked him, too. When the boy glanced down to look at her, he suddenly realized that she had the prettiest eyes he'd ever seen. Red was an unusual colour, though the shade was pretty and he liked it. There were a lot of strange things on this island, but he'd never met anyone with eyes the same colour as her before. He thought it would be nice if his eyes stayed one colour, his natural colour was a stormy blue, but the colour shifted to more or less every spectrum between blue and green.

The closest cafe was probably the best idea, if it rained Hadrian would rather be inside than outside. They could wait out the rain for a little while and then make a break for it when it stopped. "It might do," he answered, tilting his head back to look at the sky. "Might be a rainstorm. I hope we don't get caught in it." Altair always came back soaking wet when it had rained, he always dripped all over the carpet and left huge, muddy pawprints all over the kitchen floor. "Best get inside, what do you want to eat?"</div>

Well, in her mind she could think of plenty of reasons as to why he might not like her. For one, she couldn't be kissed. Well, she could, but she hadn't learned to control it yet. She had almost been offended when he asked to kiss her earlier, wondering why he wanted to potentially feed her to bears. Unfortunately, the affection connotations were not fastened securely to the action, and she felt a bit bad that she couldn't give him that small thing. Two, she had compiled a rather large list of her flaws, and could probably recite half the list on the spot. Of course, she really didn't want to scare him off so suddenly after confessing his feelings, and she decided to keep that list to herself. If they got married, he for sure couldn't run so easily. She could give him the list then.

Squinting up at the dark clouds rolling in, she reasoned that it was either a late snowstorm or an early rainstorm. Either one was sorely unwelcome at the moment, but at least they had gotten good time in on the date. "Eat? Um, anything would be good right now. What do you want to get?" Feeling a drop of something on her arm, she peered up at the sky before wiping it and showing Hadrian. "Okay, that's the signal, time to go." A little worried at her map, Ania didn't really think that the cartoony dotted lines were all that accurate of a representation. According to the map, they were about two dashed lines away from the nearest cafe. "Oh, there!" Pointing eagerly at a stripey little building, Ania made a dash for the overhang. She didn't enter immediately, but instead was transfixed by an incredibly lifelike zebra statue. Tentatively petting its rump, she admired the craftmanship that must have went into this thing. "It's so pretty."

<div align=center>Hadrian couldn't really see any of Ania's flaws. He just liked the way she was, though he didn't say anything else about it, and figured they should get inside soon before it started tipping it down. He didn't really know what he wanted to eat, he supposed that he could decide after he looked at the menu. He guessed they'd have a lot of different things. Hadrian wasn't really all that fussy with food, he'd eat what you gave him, unless it was something completely inedible. He glanced up to the sky just as the first drop of rain fell, breaking into a small run so they wouldn't get wet.

The heavens opened as soon as they reached the safety of indoors. The rain bounced off the roof and made a tremendous racket as it came down. He hoped it would stop long enough for them to make it to the car, he didn't really want to get wet, and he didn't think Ania did, either. "C'mon, let's go and see what they have to eat."

ooc; I think we're done here.</div>
