*Resists Urge to Call RP "Are We There Yet"*

Roseblossom padded across the bus, looking at all the Twolegs and creatures on board.

"Okay... I'll try." Nagisa smiled softly as she glanced around the different areas of the bus, which did indeed appear to have a friendly atmosphere.

Geno noticed Nagisa and decided to say hello. "Hello, there. What's your name?" he asked as he walked up to her, smiling.

Princess Daisy slumped down in her seat, gazing out her window. She was already homesick; Sarasaland was her home. Why did she feel like she was...MEANT to be on this road trip...?

The catlike creatures padded over to Daisy. The small one gently pawed at her dress and mewed. The larger one sat there and stared up at Daisy with huge, adorable eyes.

When she noticed Geno approaching, Nagisa turned her attention to him and bowed her head in greeting. "Hello," she started shyly. "... I'm Nagisa Furukawa." She introduced herself, smiling softly.

"Hello, Nagisa," Geno gave Nagisa a small wave. "I'm ♥♪!?, also known as Geno. You should probably just call me Geno; ♥♪!? is rather hard to pronounce." he responded with a slight, amused smile on his face.

"OK; hello Geno," Nagisa responded with a quiet giggle, bowing her head once again. "It's nice to meet you." She added with a sweet smile.

Daisy looked down at the kitten, feeling another urge of homesickness. She had her own kitten at home as well, so she was very fond of them. She reached down and gently picked it up, placing it on her lap. Then, she turned and stroked the bigger one's back; this was nice! She finally felt wanted.

Haku quietly observed Geno and Nagisa's conversation, glad that things were going well.
Cookie, who was sitting beside Haku on the side opposite to Nagisa, leaned forward slightly to see who was on the other side of the gentle musician. "Oh... Hey there!" she greeted when she noticed Nagisa, waving a bit. "You've been so quiet that I forgot you were even there. Sorry!"

When she heard another friendly voice greeting her, Nagisa turned her attention to Cookie to return the greeting. "Hello," she smiled, bowing her head politely. "It's OK..." She added with a chuckle.

"It's nice to meet you as well, Nagisa," Geno replied, nodding.
The tiny kitten purred as she was lifted up onto Daisy's lap. The larger cat let out a happy meow as Daisy stroked its blue fur.

"Gahh; so much friendliness... C'mere, you guys...!" Suddenly, Haku pulled those who were sitting beside her on both sides into a friendly hug. "This is great, dont'cha think so...? We've all made new friends already..."
"Yeah... I like that!" Cookie responded perkily, being pulled into the hug like a ragdoll.

"It is," Nagisa giggled, looking slightly surprise when she was pulled into the sudden hug, but soon relaxed again. "It will make the ride much more enjoyable." She noted with a soft smile.

Geno laughed as Nagisa and Cookie were pulled into Haku's hug. "Yeah, it will. What are your names…?" he asked with a glance at Haku and Cookie. "I believe you already know mine."

"I'm Haku," responded Haku, slightly bowing her head.
"And my name is Cookie," Cookie chimed in. "It kinda fits me, 'cause I like to eat sweets. And everything else, actually."

"Nice to meet you both," Geno smiled. "Well, then, I think I've been introduced to most everyone on this bus… haven't I?" He glanced around the bus to see if there was someone there that he hadn't already greeted.

Cookie shrugged. "I dunno; there are a lot of people here. But if you've missed anyone, you'll probably get a chance to talk to them later on."

Roseblossom padded over to where Geno and some other Twolegs were.

Geno nodded to Cookie. "Yeah, probably," he replied. He turned around and noticed Roseblossom padding over to them.

"Hello." Roseblossom said to the nearby Twolegs.

Princess Daisy felt awkward around so many people and creatures she didn't know. She got up and walked over to a group. "Hi, I'm Daisy!"

The blueish creatures padded after Daisy, the kittenlike one letting out a tiny, soft mew. The larger one purred.

Daisy glanced back at them. "Ah, you guys make me miss my own cat so much..." she sighed, leaning over to pet them. Maybe I don't need to be popular. Maybe I don't have to socialize. I get along with cats better, anyway...
She walked over to her seat and sat down. She pulled a soccer ball out of her backpack. Turning to the two creatures, she asked, "Wanna play a game?"

As the bus went over a bump, the Mayor jolted awake.

"...!! Oh....aww....I was asleep......." He yawned and, with his eyes closed, asked, "Is everyone on the bus?"
