ギアクロニクル

Usually he wouldn’t really go to these kind of events, buteven so his family is going. He might as well tag along so he isn’t seen as rude, probably. Even so, this is an event for everyone… He presumes Komaeda will be here too. He hasn’t got to know the other boy as much during his time in Iunctum, but maybe this is a good time to do that?

He isn’t really sure what to expect, or to do! Well, they’re going to be in the same room for who knows how long, so yeah, it’s a given that the two will definitely get to know each other way more than just hanging out every once and awhile while in the city. That’s still not Chrono’s forte, sadly.

“Why… Am I here…” Is one of the first things he mutters under his breath as green eyes look at the main room where the speech ended, FILLED with people.

Before trying to find his fiancé, he gets a small cup of fruit punch from one of the buffet tables. Now, where could that boy be… Komaeda isn’t really a person you can miss, anyway. With that wild mane of his…

Well, speaking of that wild mane— above some of the heads in the crowd Chrono swears he thought he saw the boy walking through. Making his way down town. Walking fast. Faces past. Komaeda is YACHTBOUND.

“Hey! Komaeda, is that you?” What’s better to do than to yell for his fiancé in the middle of a crowded room? Nailed it! He pushes his way past a few event go-ers trying to make it to the other boy. Finally making it past most of the people, he finds his fiancé, he was about to call his name again to get the boy’s attention… But he trips over someone’s shoe! And there goes Chrono, falling forward, and what else goes? The punch of course, right at Komaeda’s back!

Never once in his life he’d thought he’d have a family so quickly- so suddenly! Actually, it’s a bit too much to take in, especially not to mention he also has a fiancé? Isn’t that a bit too much? Not to mention, he’d have to meet all these people… Chrono isn’t sure if he really enjoyed this idea. Actually, the more he thinks about it, the more he felt a stomach ache rise in his gut… Why.

Although, on the front door he’s greeted with a small card smacked to the wood of it. It didn’t seem too special, the boy was about to just go on in, until it fell onto the ground- so he picks it up. Ah… From King; to meet at the park, by a bench near the fountain. Chrono stays silent as he stares at the note, with a small sigh he finally folds it up, and pushes it into his pocket.

He takes his sweet time arriving at the park, carrying himself with a sort of disinterest. Eyes stare at the ground as he walks, watching his every step as he progresses forward, and casually has his hands in his pocket- the right hand playing around with the note that occupies one of the pockets. He follows the sound of the fountain water, circling around the stone statue that spews the crystal clear water. He peers over the edge, taking notice of all the pennies reflecting in the rippling waves of the fountain water; other people must’ve tossed in these pennies, and make their wishes as they pass this fountain.

Which makes Chrono think… Should he do it too? Hope this meeting with, er… “Dad” go well?

Ehhh.

Nah.

He continues to circle he fountain again until he finds That Bench, the one where he’s supposed to meet- King, right? He can't judge about odd names, really. Let's not go back to the time where Trinity Dragon thought it'd be fun to tease Chrono about sharing a name with his deck. Embarrassing. However, he notices another male with long blue hair, next to him he has a teaset ready to go and everything. The boy seems to be relaxing with a book.

Uhh… Is this him? It must be. It looks like he is expecting someone to arrive. With uneasy footsteps he walks up towards the bench.
