While she never would have said it aloud the blonde had initially had her doubts about the band and it’s chance of succeeding in such a place. But the positive reactions that had followed their first live performance weeks prior came as a relief. Finally Rin was able to do what she loved the most and while her gigs with other Vocaloids had always been competitive it was a nice change of pace to play alongside a group of people who were only doing this for their own enjoyment rather than for fortune or fame. With these people the android never has to worry over whether one of them would be favored over the rest or if she would be rebooted should her performances not be considered up to par. And as such she had finally gotten a chance to befriend her band mates rather than despise them in secret.
Her friendship with Jirou, in particular, had bloomed rather quickly ever since the girl had first interviewed Rin back when auditions to join were still in the process of being held. They had bonded quickly over a shared passion and only seemed to grow closer in the time spent together through rehearses, planning and, now, everything in between.
Truth be told the blonde didn’t actually need any assistance when it came to shopping but any excuse to spend time with a friend was good enough. So when she spots the other further ahead, standing out among the crowd of strangers Rin wastes no time in surging forward, calling out to the girl as she weaves in and out through the sea of people serving as nothing more than obstacles in her path.
Before the other has time to react the blonde is already hooking her arm through the other’s, grinning up at her as she tugs her along. “Sorry I’m late! Were you waiting long?”
