St. Michael's Way (Main Street)

(from here)

Elliot wrote:“Well, I’m worried a bit about dropping the cookies, so if you could carry at least one of those, it’d be helpful” he replied, a tad embarrassed

"Sure!" Penny responded, blushing happily as she took some of the cookies to aid him. "Hows that?" She hummed with a soft smile, tail swishing gently behind her. She gave off a slight scent of lavender, thanks to the oil she used in her bath earlier, and standing this close to him, it was possible he could smell the relaxing fragrance.

“Great, thanks! “ he nodded as the took the walk to the Craig estate

Penny very much enjoyed this sudden companionship with Elliot, and smiled with a beaming, blushing smile again. "Well then, lead the way!" the mouse giggled, before Elliot took the lead and she followed by his side.
She didn't pay too much to the streets as they walked, and instead kept her focus between where the taller mouse-girl was walking and snapping a sideways glance to the young human, Elliot as she spoke to him. "So, you live around here then I take it? I guess that means you attend St. Michael's as well, huh?" She inquired, sticking close to the young man's side as to not get lost on the way! The cold, cobble stones were comfortable on the pads of her toes.

“I do.” He nodded. “I enrolled a few months ago after I finished High School. Things have been going well.”

"That's great to hear! My younger sister, Ioka, was given a recommendation to be a teacher there but..." her face changed slightly upon mentioning this however. Penny's face turned a little blue, sweat rolling down the side of her head as she began to think about it. "Well... let's just say her curriculum was a tad... excessive." She sighs, cold sweat dripping down the side of her head just thinking of her sister's rather brutal method of self defense training! She meant well, but had no limiter.

Penny perked up quickly though, and smiled at him once again in her cute, blushing manner again. "So have a particular field of study you're interested in?" the red haired mouse asked curiously, to change the subject as it would be difficult to explain her sister any further.

“Well, I’m learning about healing magic, which is proven interesting. Otherwise I’ve been working on my music, as well as taking some medical courses as part of my healing magic lessons.”

"Oh?" she inquired, even more curious about him as she kept herself close to him. "I don't know much about healing magic myself, I have a little fire magic training thanks to my sister, but otherwise I'm more... physical I suppose hehe~" She giggled into her wrist, before observing his handsome face. He looked familiar, but couldn't place her finger on it, still blinded by the overexposure to Elliot's 'Cleansing Aura'.

"Music huh? You know, I sing~ " She hummed sweetly, closing her eyes with a pretty smile, her arms behind her back as she leaned forwards a little.

“Ah, nice. I play violin myself, also some piano and a bit of cello. As for magic, I have some experience with water, ice, and wind magicks.”

"Pretty well rounded in both instruments and magic! I admire a guy who can apply himself to so many skills! Hehe~" Penny replied, but quickly flushed pink, stumbling somewhat into him after realizing:



D-did I just low key hit on him??

The fact she stumbled into his arm soon after with her soft and plush body made her blush as she quickly shot back! "S-sorry, stepped on a crack! Hahaha!!...Ha..." Penny's face went to jovial to slightly awkward and embarrassed with cold sweat dripping down the side of her head once more. She coughed into her fist and continued to walk alongside him, hoping he didn't think her as awkward for her words, and quickly added: "I probably could teach you some basic fire magics, but... maybe I'm not the best teacher for that kind of thing now thinking of it! " Penny chuckled nervously as the pair paused at an intersection.

“I appreciate the offer regardless ” Elliot replied, recognizing a familiar facade. “We’re here.”

"You are quite welcome~" Penny cheerily replied, before looked up at the residence... a cold chill ran down the length of her spine as something felt off about looking at the place. Not in a creepy way, but more like she had been here before?

She wasn't sure how, as the face of the large brick manor looked quaint and unfamiliar, yet it was? I'm being weird, say something! She found herself thinking, blushing as she looked over the entrance with a slight smile. "Well, you certainly have a big place all to yourself! Well, you said you had a sister, so I guess not ALL by yourself!  " the mouse chuckled awkwardly. "Are you sure you'd like me as your guest? I can't help but feel like I'd be imposing on ya, Elliot! " Penny cooed.

“Two sisters, one brother, my father, as well as our maid. Though, most of the time my family is busy, and keeping track of Gwen is a fool’s errand, so I’m usually on my own….” Elliot shrugged as best he could with the cheesecake in his hands.

The mention of his siblings felt oddly specific to her suddenly, but she still couldn't put her finger on why. "Heh, I know how that can be, I have twelve or so other siblings, and had to share a room with seven of them till I moved out!" Penny giggled, before blinking her shiny green eyes from behind her specs. "I feel suddenly honored to be in your company! You are a very kind person, Elliot ~" She mused, finding herself almost reaching to pat his head- and suddenly stopped herself!

"Ahem~" She smiled warmly. He's such an adorable human! Maybe he's single? Should ask him out? Oh golly, I don't know if I can do that! Stop it, stop it you are getting way too ahead of yourself! It is best to learn to walk before we run, Penelope! Besides, I don't even know what he's like yet, he could be like your employers! I mean, I don't even know how old he is yet! I've met 13 year olds who ran mega companies before! Don't wanna be any more awkward either!

“I try to be.” He remarked, opening the front door. “Please, come in.” (To Here)

Elliot wrote:“Thanks!” He smiled and nodded, deciding to go with the flow in regards to this date.

(from here)

"Hmhmhm~" Penny giggled as Elliot gently tugged her along, taking them back to the street once more. It was still lovely out, and given the things she'd seen today she was glad nothing else bad had happened! Maybe her luck finally was on the mend again? She'd have to hope and see! The cool cobblestone felt nice on her toes, and she gave her companion a gentle rub of his hand with her thumb, to get his attention. "This is kinda exciting, I never have much time to myself these days! Let alone spend it with great company " The mouse cheered, sticking her tiny tongue from her plush pink lips at him in a playful manner!

“I’m glad that this sort of thing is making you happy. You’ve seemed a bit nervous since we met at Gloria’s. I mean, pot calling the kettle maybe, but I’m glad I could lift your mood.”

Elliot wrote:“I’m glad that this sort of thing is making you happy. You’ve seemed a bit nervous since we met at Gloria’s. I mean, pot calling the kettle maybe, but I’m glad I could lift your mood.”

"Awww~" She squeaked, blushing maddeningly at that! She scuttled closer to him, her shoulders rubbing against him. "You really have! Though I may not have experience myself in this kind of thing, I think you're doing pretty well yourself! I mean, we both got a little light headed, but you seem to be handling things better than I did!" Penny coos.

“Don’t sell yourself short. After all, you were the one who made the first step.” He replied, warmly smiling

Elliot wrote:“Don’t sell yourself short. After all, you were the one who made the first step.” He replied, warmly smiling

To this, Penny's cheeks went flush, bringing her pink skin a brighter shade of red as she smiles at Elliot warmly. "Aww, shucks~" She cooed, leaning against him and resting her head close to his shoulder; she had seen this kind of thing all the time with couples but she did not account for her massive, rounded ears! The soft, thin flap flattened against his cheek and ear as she hummed sweetly; her tail swishing behind them in a playful manner. Her breast also gently caressed his arm, but she was too flattered by her date to really notice at the moment~ "Where to?" Penny whispered into his ear, softly; the light touch of her cool breath brushing against his cheek while the scent of lavender from the oils she used in her recent bath wafted around him~

“Well! Um, I could probably give you a glimpse of the school. The weekend has come, so there shouldn’t be much problem with having a visitor on the grounds?” He offered.

"Sounds like a lovely idea~!" cooed the blushing mouse, who huddled against the blushing Elliot's arm. Together they began to walk, and she glanced over to him with her large, emerald orbs. "I debated attending there or the Beijio Academy years ago, but never had the time myself." Penny revealed a little more about herself as they walked along.

“Well, if you have time now, it’s not too late to start. I mean, who knows, maybe we could end up as classmates!”

Elliot wrote:“Well, if you have time now, it’s not too late to start. I mean, who knows, maybe we could end up as classmates!”

"Tehehe, you may be right!" Penny smiled, closing her eyes. Her long, whipping tail gently wrapped around his waist. "Um... if that feels too uncomfortable... lemme know. " Whispered a blushing mouse girl, upon doing so while there were a few others walking by them. Some took notice, as it was hard not to! She batted her lidded eyes, the green orbs darting away from his gaze and back...

“I’m more concerned it might be awkward to walk like this.” Elliot replied, a nervous chuckle escaping from his lips
