[After a bit of a tense exchange through gazes between Maka's Alakazam and his Kadabra, Kaneki manages to make it to her house in one piece. As usual he's got Rikki on his shoulder, watching over the proceedings like a particularly ruffled housecat, while Hide is glued to his side. He brought his own books to share, because why not.
Kaneki also has Phantom with him today, carrying the little Litwick in a small tea holder. He'd been spending a few weeks at Honeyed Soul while Kaneki was in Ecruteak, but he knew that the little ghost would be sorely disappointed if he hadn't been allowed to come to this, so anyone passing by might see a little candle peeping over the edge of the glass at them. Kaneki offers a smile to anyone unfamiliar he sees, holding Phantom in one hand while he grips the strap of his bag loaded with books in the other.
Since there should be a lot of folks here with an appreciation for books, he's hoping to maybe meet some new people. Provided Rikki doesn't stare at them until they leave, anyway.]
[Locked to Maka]
[When most of the people are there and Maka isn't busy greeting them or preparing to get things started, Kaneki will make his way over to her. Rikki actually isn't with him, for once; he managed to convince her to stick with Hide to keep him out of trouble, though now there's an arm chair in the corner with a Zangoose sitting on the back and a Smeargle actually in it that nobody will be able to occupy for a while...]
Hey, Maka? ...could I talk to you for a minute?
[...there's no possible way he can make this not sound bad but he really would rather speak with her in person, instead of over text or even video.]
