Hearing those familiar footsteps, she turns to face the redhead with a smile on her face. " Mm.. I wanted to see you. ♪ " She waddled closer this time, just a little. " Just kidding. Happy birthday, Justacchi! " Arms open—she basically lunges against the other uma for a hug.

( After a minute had passed, Justan had walked over to the spot that she'd nearly dozed off at once and noticed Vivlos. Sitting down beside her with her arms over her knees. ) Is there something you need some help with?

Now she's on a timer, too... A bag was grabbed, getting herself into a coat and fluffy clothes underneath to mitigate the cold weather, making her way over to the aforementioned place and sitting down on the turf while waiting, tail gently swaying behind herself.

Vivlos herself didn't see anything particularly wrong with it. She was studying English, so . . " I'm kinda sleepy. Didn't have a good rest today, nightmares are sooo annoying, Shima-cchi! " She then goes on to sip on the coffee, almost getting burnt in the process.
