Giving him another glance after having copied the last move from screen, Shiva gave Kirlia a...weird expression. Half suprised over the slightly harsh reaction, half playful over how adorable a angered Kirlia looked like. "Well, do excuse me that I'm busy with my stuff! Didn't know you and Nathan would show up here, and I wanted to head upstairs right away..." *closing the journal, packing it away and logging of from PC* "Alright, alright, I'm coming then..."

She followed Nathan's winking and Kirlia's lead to the table he resided, looking somewhat amused and delighted despite being intercepted. Must be the aftermaths of seeing Xiani again as well as having just bought another charm for her growing collection. "Greetings, Nathan! Didn't expected to see you here, thought you'll be more than busy with your cousin. So, did you found him and what's wrong that you need me at all?~ I wanted to head upstairs into dorm right away, but then Kirlia happened."

No nonsense from Nathan right now. He's far from being in the mood for anything else. "I'll be seeing plenty of Kory for the next few days, trust me.  Besides, I said I'd meet you here after I found him, remember?  Frankly, I'm surprised I got here before both you and Ventus did.  Anyways...Kirlia 'happened' because I need to inform you about what I'm doing for the next few days.  I just got off the phone with Ventus telling him about it, because he's apparently out of town on some sort of errand for Belle and Tramp.  He's picking all sorts of spectacular times to wander off, that's for sure...*sigh*..."

Welp, better just get it over with...not like her reaction could be too much different from Ventus's...

"...I'm participating in the Running, and my cousin's going to be helping me prep for it...there, now you know too.  Blegh.  Even just saying it leaves a bad taste in my mouth..."
