Mirii was walking down on the hallway, while frowning and clenching her fists.

"Those fools… who they thought to be in front of perfection?!" Her head rose. "Claiming that I was a mere thief, as if I tried to gain money from this… hmpf!" Her eyes closed. "Next time, I'll denounce them if they keep their false claims over my reputation…"

She sighed.

"I hope they will not find out that I was the one who took the weapon…"

Mirii turned to her right, once she's out of the hallway, now facing the canteen which was populated by several adult Inklings.

"If things went as I planned, I should find Hunley and the others at the usual place…"

The girl stopped behind an Inkling man: she turned to her right, as she bended down and picked the blue tray. She stretched her legs up, as her eyes kept staring at the food tray.

"... this color is not appropriate for lunch." She bended down, as her right hand went over the orange tray. "This one is."

Mirii puts the blue tray back, while pulling the orange tray. Her right hand went over a shelf, which had different dark-green, plastic baskets. Her right hand picked up napkin, putting it on the food tray… then she picked the fork and the kitchen knife from the left baskets, putting those above the napkin. Lastly, her right hand picked up the glass on the leftmost side of the shelf, putting it in front of the napkin.

"Now… what they are offering for lunch?" She turned forward, walking behind the man. "I'm in the mood for a bit of pasta and a bit of meat and salad… each on a different plate."

She walked in front of the counter, turning her sight towards it… she grimaces, while staring at the pasta covered in tomato, chili and meat-balls.

"On second thought, I prefer something lighter…" Her irises moved to her left.

An Inkling woman was smiling, while putting a piece of meat above the others with the serving tool, from behind the counter.

"… just meat and salad." She walked in front of them, putting the food tray on the square rails. "I would like a piece of meat."

"Don't you want to eat a fishburger?" The Inkling woman closed her eyes. "We have just improved the recipe, last night…"

"No, thank you." Mirii's head rose. "Blah…"

"Alright then." The woman chuckled, as her right hand picked a flat plate and her left hand grabbed a piece of meat with the serving tool. "Would you like to add salad and steak fries?"

"… yes, although don't exaggerate with the steak fries." Mirii nodded.

The woman put the meat below, the salad on the top left side and the steak fries on the top right side of the plate.

"Here!" The woman smiled, as her right hand grasped the plate and her right arm stretched forward.

"Thank you." Mirii smiled a bit, as her hands grabbed the plate and put it on the napkin's left side.

The girl grabbed the food tray, walking to her left.

"Knowing Hunley, he picked up the bottle of Inkling water…" Her irises were looking at the various slices of cake and fruit salad inside a small, transparent bowl. "… I'll grab a bowl of fruit salad too."

The girl stopped in front of the transparent counter, putting down her food tray on the rails.

"Sir, I would like a bowl of fruit salad." Mirii's eyelids lowered to the middle, as her head rose.

Her eyes grew a bit.

"Drat! I forgot to pick up another fork!" Her eyes squeezed. "Wh-why I didn't took the time to"

"Here it is." The man's right hand was holding the bowl.

Mirii's eyes opened quickly.

"Thank you, sir." She smiled, as her hands took the bowl and put it on the food tray's top-left side.

She picked the food tray, as she turned behind and faced the tables: her friends were sitting around a table located near the middle.

"… I'll pick the fork later." She walked towards the table, passing all the other ones. "I have to eat the meat, first…"

Hun's head turned to his left, watching Mirii walking closer to him. He smiled.

"Hi, Mirii!" Hun's eyes closed.

"About time you came in here, Miss Perfection!" Grina grins, as her hands grabbed her fishburger filled with cheddar and salad. "I couldn't keep watching this delightful burger any longer!" She took a big bite on it.

"Eh eh, like… I couldn't even look at it!" Bars tilted backwards on his chair, while grinning and putting his hands behind his neck. "That was delicious, man!"

His plate had some sauces and crumbs spread on it. His glass was full of blackish soda.

"Hmpf…" Mirii's head rose, as she sits down on her chair and puts her food tray over the table. "I would complain about your ineptitude for waiting my arrival… but at the same time, I don't have to watch your greasy food." Her right hand took her fork and her left hand took the kitchen knife.

"Hhhmmmm!" Grina's eyes closed, while swallowing. "I would eat 100 of those…!"

Mirii's eyes closed, as her mouth opened a bit and ate a piece of meat.

"I'm sure this meal will keep my shape… unlike that travesty Grina is eating." Her eyes opened. "I risked too much, before… I must act more carefully from now on."

"You don't have a fork for the fruit salad?"

Mirii's head turned to her right, watching Hun staring back at her fruit salad.

"Alas, yes…" Her eyebrows went up. "I have to pick one, after I finish"

Hun stands up, as he walked past Mirii.

"Hunley?!" Mirii's eyes expanded, as she watches the boy passing the other tables. "Come back here!"

"Let him walk, Mirii." Grina smiled, as her eyebrows went up. "He's doing something nice…"

Mirii blushed a lot.

"Of course he's doing something nice for me!" She returned forward, while frowning a bit. "I was the one who made the mistake… thus I should be the one who has to solve it." Her eyes closed. "But because Hunley is doing this, I'm in debt with him…"

"Give him a hug when he returns, ok?" Grina's right eye winked, as she took another bite on her burger.

Mirii blushed even more, as her irises shrunk. Hun stopped in front of Mirii, as he was holding a fork with his right hand.

"Here!" He smiled.

Mirii turned to her left, raising her head and watching Hun's smile. She smiled a bit too, as her right hand took the fork.

"I appreciate it, Hunley…" Her eyes closed, as her right hand puts the fork near the bowl. "… thank you."

"You are welcome!" Hun blushes, as he walks back towards his chair, sitting down and watching the girl.

Mirii picked the fork near the meat and the knife standing on the other side of the plate, while her smile grew.

"I finished!" Fara lifted her posture, while closing her eyes and smiling.

She turned to her left, watching Hun.

"Big bro, could you please give me the card key?" Her hands' side touched, as they formed a little bowl.

"Fara!" Hun frowned a bit, turning towards her. "You have to wait for us, ok?"

"But Skippy is missing me…" The little girl's eyebrows went up and her mouth downturned. "He needs me so badly…"

Hun kept looking at her…

"… sigh… ok." His right hand went over his right pocket. "But don't go in there just yet." His right hand retreated with a card key grasped in, as the hand moved towards Fara's hands.

"… I'll not jump in there, don't worry!" The card fell on her hands, as she immediately stands up.

"Wait there a sec!" Grina bended forward, while smiling. "I think your big bro is gonna stay with us, for a while…"

"Really?" Hun turned forward, watching Grina picking up her glass and drinking from it. "Why you say that?"

"Aaah." Grina's left hand put her glass back on its place. "We gotta be friends, Hunry…" Her right eye winked. "We have a very busy afternoon of fun and games!"

"I preferred a busy afternoon of focus and work…" Mirii stuffed her mouth with salad.

"But having fun is a job… a job I'm pretty good at it!" Grina grins, while staring at the girl. "This time, however, I bet that Miss Perfection will have some fun too…"

Mirii's head rose.

"Hmpf… we will see." Her right hand brought a steak fry in her mouth, as she began chewing with her mouth closed.

"Alright, I got the message!" Fara walked away, as her right arm waved at the Inklings. "Bye bye!"

"Bye!" Grina's eyes closed, while smiling and waving her right hand towards her.

"Like, later!" Bars drank from his glass, while holding it with his right hand, before putting it back on the table. "Aaaah! Burp!"

Mirii's eyes expanded, as she frowned a lot. Bars grinned, as his left hand went over his mouth.

"Ehm… sorry for that!" He chuckles a bit.

Mirii grimaces, while Grina snickered faintly.

"… before dinner, I'll teach you to be more responsible…" Her head rose. "There is no way I will let you get away with this…"

"C-come on, girl… like, could you give me a free pass?" Sweat covered Bars' forehead. "I mean, it's my first time doing the mistake and all that jazz…"

"The first and last time, Bars." Mirii's eyes squeezed a bit. "I'll make sure of that…"

Mirii's right hand took the clear bottle of Inkling water, twisting the bottle cap away from the top with her left hand, as she pours it inside her glass. Her right hand put the bottle back on its place, twisting the bottle cap in the opposite direction.

"Come on, Mirii!" Grina threw the last bit of burger in her mouth, as she chews it with her mouth closed. She swallowed quickly. "I'm itching at the idea of beginning the funny games!" Her hands clasped together.

"Like… can I get another portion of cheesecake?" Bars grins, as his posture lifted. "I heard that they will not serve another one for dinner… and I'm already a fan of it!"

"Ugh…" Mirii grimaces, as her hands pushed the plate and grabbed the bowl. "After this bowl of fruit salad, I cannot even glance at food for a while…"

"Me neither…" A sweat drop appears on Hun's right side of his head, as he took the food tray. "I'm going to put the tray away, if you don't mind…"

"Not at all, Hunry!" Grina smiled. "In fact, I'll join you…" Her hands grabbed her food tray, as she stood up.

"Cheesecake sweetie, here I come!" Bars chuckles, as his right hand picked a small plate and immediately walked away from his chair.

The other two Inklings walked away as well… while Mirii groaned, with her eyelids lowered to the middle.

"I hope that for this afternoon I will be able to tackle Project Neo…" She stuffed a piece of strawberry inside her mouth.
