Thanks to Ha-joon, Hana had been introduced to a new series of songs, as well as guys to talk to. Lately, she had been getting back on board with her studying though. She had one year of college left to attend, and she didn't wanna fall behind when it started back. But, her brother bringing his friends over  had probed to be quite the distraction. Not that she could complain. Hana was constantly surrounded by attractive guys, and half of them were amazing dancers. But, she had to admit, there were days where she felt smothered by all of it, and often found herself leaving home, just so she could read and study without all the laughter, banter and flirtation being in her way. 

Admittedly, Hana was guilty of most of the flirtation herself. She knew Ha-joon would eventually say something to her for it, but, she was entertaining herself the best way a female could in that kind of situation, and she was even guilty of liking it a little too much. Someone as confined and sophisticated as her, someone as sheltered as she had been, it was no wonder that the moment she got a taste of the wild side, she let herself drown in it. 

Snapping out of thought, Hana clicked over to youtube, and browsed for the songs her brother danced to quite often right in their living room. Hana smiled as a familiar tune began playing. She figured after long hours of studying and researching the haunted Inn she had just started working at for Thaddeus, that she deserved a break. Getting to her feet, Hana done one of the dances she had pretty much memorized from Ha-joon, and laughed at herself as she watched the tall stand up mirror she had put in for her brother to practice, even though he rarely practiced at home. But, if he ever wanted to, he had a decent enough space to do it in. Hana wasn't much of a dancer, but she supposed it was a natural talent, even for her. Joonie was flawless though, and from what she'd seen of Yeon.. flawless didn't even begin to describe that man. 

With the music still blasted, Hana dismissed herself to the kitchen, deciding to really indulge and enjoy her time in the house alone, by making a drink. Since she never drank, it didn't take much to make her tipsy. Deciding to start off slowly though, Hana sipped causally from the tall glass of Long Island Iced Tea,. the only drink in the world that had several different alcohol's in one. Hana headed back into her living room, and changed the song, barely hearing the knock at the door over top the MUSIC. 

"Damn it Joonie, can't a girl get a break?" she groaned dramatically, and covered herself up since she was barely dressed. Or at least that's what Ha-joon liked to say about her clothes when he had friends over. Her very short shorts and tank tops didn't suffice for clothes at all. So, after tugging on a floral satin house coat, Hana swung the door open, and for a moment, stood there wide eyed. "Well, I don't think ive met you yet.. let me guess you're here for Ha-joon?" she asked, and gave him a faint smile while pushing her glasses up the bridge of her nose. Hana knew how much danger she was in right now, so to let someone through her door, without even hearing them speak first, was just foolish, but nothing about this guy screamed danger at her, and Hana's senses were always on fire with the intensive training she'd been through back in Korea. 

After running to sit her drink down, Hana turned the volume down slightly, but kept it at an audible level. She was sure she'd seen this one before, but she knew it wasn't someone Ha-joon had brought home with him, so now she was curious. Curiosity + Booze + Hot guys = madness for  Hana. At the very least, she had no filter. And, that was Hana even on sober days. So, this was about to be an interesting night to say the least. "I'm Hana.. the sister" she then said, introducing herself in probably the most inappropriate way she could have, blushing heavily at the realization of how she'd just said it all. 

"I'm Sorry. I'm just so used to my brothers friends." she added, giggling softly, while twirling a strand of jet black hair around her pointer finger, with her hip poked out slightly; just something else Joonie hated. "Joonie's not here right now, but you should come inside.. he wouldn't want you to wait in the cold" she expressed, while grazing her teeth over her bottom lip. A look of mischief playing in her chocolate optics as she scanned him over one good time, and waited for him to speak. Hell, for all she knew, the alcohol had thrown her senses off completely, and he wasn't here for Ha-joon at all. That would have been pretty embarrassing. But, she knew he wasn't here for her. Hana was lame. For the most part anyways. Ha-joon definitely was the popular one among them. Anytime people had tried hanging out with Hana in the past, she pushed them away, and buried her head in books, prefering her studies over friends any time. 

She'd been enjoying all the male company lately though.. maybe a little to much.

“Diviners are born with magic yes, though I don’t think they really come until their own until they reach 18” though he had never been a Diviner so he wasn’t completely sure, he did some research on other species after he learned for the Supernatural but he had never got himself majorly involved. “Well you’re doing better than a lot of people” he commented with a soft grin “I mean you’re not living with your parents anymore while a lot of young people still are” not that he was judging them because that probably helped them to save for the step-up they needed to move on. “You’ll figure things out, have a little in faith in your own instincts” he had made decisions based on what felt right for him and it had worked out eventually.

“Well that’s cause people are always busy trying to be the best, the smartest, the wealthiest” he shook his head a little, you couldn’t compete with everyone else in the world, if that was practical then everyone would end up being a doctor or a lawyer and no one would be able to get any work because everyone was vying for the same opportunity. “Reading is a great habit” he spoke softly with a slight grin “Nothing better than curling up with a good paperback and getting lost in a new story for a few hours” he couldn’t compare it with anything else he had experienced. It was definitely the way that the Kitsune managed to decrease his stress levels and just disconnect for a while “When I was younger I read so many books that I actually had to ask the library to order me some more in because I finished all the ones they had” he guessed back then it had been more to distract himself from school than anything.

He chuckled when she asked him if Minha was a pet “No my girlfriend” he responded with an utterly serious expression for a moment before he chuckled softly and shrugged “Just kidding, she’s my dog and she’s pretty clingy” he teased with a grin “And I don’t bat for the female team anyway so” never really seen the appeal, for as long as he could actually remember all of his attraction was towards men. He did gasp pretty loudly when she admitted she hadn’t read The Lord Of The Rings Trilogy “and here I thought we could be friends” he spoke in a teasing disappointed tone, clicking his tongue. Though when she said she enjoyed the classics he smiled “I mean some of them are a little cliche but you can’t knock them, they’re what paved the way for everything that came after right?” that’s how he saw it anyway.

When she commented about his costume making and didn’t laugh about it or play the importance of it off, that made him smile, often Leigh got the feeling that most people didn’t really understand the things that were important to him so he often just kept it to himself because it was easier than having someone dismiss your interests. “I did, though I had to crawl over the city on a Saturday night to find the one craft store still open” he shook his head from the memory “And by the time I finished I fell asleep on the table and had to rust the rest in the morning” he ran a hand through his hair and gave a sheepish grin “Nowadays I try and give costume projects far more notice, never again” he laughed remembering how stressed he had been the whole time.

“Well I just meant the stories are pretty centered around family” he responded with a slight grin, “Plus you talk about your brother a lot so I just figured they must be important to you” and he was pretty sure the whole family dynamic was very important in Korea. He wasn’t Korean by nationality but because his birth parents had been Korean he had made sure to do some research into the culture that was tied to his heritage. When she complimented his fort making skills he laughed “It’s more like a nest than a fort but it works for comfort” he commented and is to prove his point he pulled a comforter over his back and laid down on his front inside one of them “True, who wouldn’t be jealous of the extreme comfort” he grinned slightly shuffling to make himself comfortable for the film.

“So basically hiding from the cold” he commented at her statement and chuckled “I can definitely get behind that logic” he teased definitely enjoying staying indoors rather than going out in the cold miserable weather. When she asked what he drank he went quiet for a moment because he always found it hard to explain why he didn’t drink alcohol but then she started listing a bunch of soft drinks which made his eyes light up “Oh do you have any tea? I love all kinds of tea” he spoke softly with a slightly sheepish grin. Once they had their drinks they could start the movie, which was currently playing it’s a very cheesy trailer on the screen “Any movie with a Christmas piglet on the trailer is a winner for me” he teased as he snacked on the pizza slice he had picked up.

Hana listened intently, and like a sponge, she soaked in the information Leigh gave. She liked learning about the supernatural, because really, that was a humans only weapon against a world like this, was knowing. It was sad though, because some people were shoved into this world with no knowledge at all, and never learned until something tragic came to them. Hana wished she could somehow find a career in teaching people about the world hey lived in. There were plenty of school teachers, but that didn't interest her a bit, she just wanted to help people somehow. Fashion was Hana's heart, but she could always help people on the side of that. She gave a warm smile back when he said she was doing better than most.

"Thanks, Leigh. I'm sure I'll figure it all out eventually" she gave a hopeful nod but frowned at his next comment, because she was sort of guilty of all that; trying to be the best. "I lived that way for a long time. But admittedly, I was miserable. It's not that I ever wanted to be the best, more so that I had to with a father like mine" she grimaced, and shuttered. Sometimes just the thought of her father disgusted her. It saddened her all the same, because it's not like he hadn't taken care of her and Ha-joon, and in his own way, he wanted Hana to live the best life she could. "True that, i'm happy to have a fellow book nerd" she winked playfully. She loved reading, but sadly she'd only been reading the context of her college books lately. She definitely needed to get lost in some good stories. "If you have any recommendations , throw them at me" she added  with a soft giggle, flipping her long raven black hair over one side of her shoulder.

Hana's mouth fell open when he said he had read literally every book in the library when he was younger "That's dedication" she laughed and shook her head at him, but she admired it all the same. Hana grinned, and gave a playful eye roll at his joke when he mentioned his dog, smacking his shoulder gently and playfully. "I need a dog.. this place stays so lonely when Ha-joon isn't here, and the guys are gone" she sighed, chuckling again. Sometimes it was a pain to have the house full of his friends, but other times, she joined in, and so far she had made some pretty great memories with some of them, and it had kind of brought her and Ha-joon a little closer too, but only because they wouldn't argue in front of guests. That was a sad thing to admit she guessed.

When he admitted he didn't bat for females, Hana grabbed her chest and fell back on the pillow fort dramatically, acting heart broken "only teasing" she chuckled, "There's nothing wrong with that. Do you have a special someone?" she wondered curiously. She was getting to know him after all, so she figured that wasn't to out of line for her to ask, and if it was, she was sure he'd either say so, or just not answer. Hana nudged him playfully when he joked about how they couldn't be friends because she had so far failed to read the Lord of The Rings Trilogy "I'll make sure I get right on that" she grinned playfully and gave him a pleased smile when he said that classics had paved the way for everything that came after "And that is why we are gonna be firneds" she poked her tongue out, turning his joke about them being friends around on him "cause exactly! classics are sometimes cliche, but people like me and you would be in a world of pain without them" she added, smiling brightly.

Usually her persoanly wasn't this bubbly, but she guessed someone as great as Leigh brought it out of her. That's really all it took sometimes, being around humble, genuine people. Hana noted the way he smiled a little brighter when she showed an interest in his costume, and wondered if maybe people in his life didn't pay much mind to the things that mattered to him. While it saddened her, she was happy to be someone who did care "See, dedication. You are a dedicated guy huh?" she asked, because it wasn't just that comment, it's because he'd read all the books in the library too. Perhaps he had other reasons, but Hana was just trying to find the good behind everything she guessed. Sometimes that was a bad habit of hers, because she often read things wrong. "Jesus, sounds like you had a wild night. But yeah, perhaps in the future, try not to overwhelm yourself so much, or even call on a friend to help you" she raised her hand playfully "Because i'm definitely going to put me own label out. I'm sure with my knowledge in fashion, I could be of some help with your costumes sometime" she grinned, but it sounded like something they'd have some fun with in the future.

Hana gazed away from him for the first time since they had started talking, sighing softly. "Well, my brother definitely does mean the world to me. God knows i'd move heaven and hell for him. But my parents..." she trailed off, running a hand through her hair, grimacing a little .. "I love them, and don't get me wrong.. they broke their necks to make sure my brother and I had the best of everything, but my father is just a force to be reckoned with.. that's putting it kindly" she laughed, to dismiss her true feelings about her father. She felt so torn about her parents involvment with illegal dealings. Never in a million years would she have dreamed her and Ha-joon would be hunted by the Triad.

Hana smirked when he said the fort was more of a nest but worked for comfort "Hell yeah it does. I think i might just move this to my bedroom and do away with my bed" she chuckled playfully, but it really did the trick. She could definitely fall asleep here. Hana gave him a look when he went quiet, smiling as his eyes lit up and he expressed how he loved all kinds of tea. One more fact that was nice to know about him. "Tea, pizza, good conversation, an amazing pillow fort .. a gorgeous guy.. I feel like Christmas came my way early" she smirked. She knew he'd said earlier he didn't date females, so the harmless flirting was merely a way to be friendly with him. She definitely seen this as the start of something good. She couldn't help but think an amazing friendship could be in their near futures. They clicked well, and had plenty in common, so far anyways. There was room to grow, and plenty more to get to know, but that was the fun part.

Hana gazed over to him and chuckled at his comment about the movie "Fair enough. You'd hate my tolerence for chick flicks .. Ha-joon certainly does" she giggled, because she remembered the last one she had made him sit through. "He complained the whole time, or found ways to distract himself, even began humming a song just to block out the noise from the movie we were watching" she chuckled. It was a good memory to reflect on. "All this talk of my brother, I can't even recall now if I asked or not. Do you have any siblings?" she asked curiously, before grabbing her second slice of pizza. Hana's apatite was outrageous to be the petite female that she was. "Would you wanna go do something for the weekend? With the holiday's coming up.. i'm sure we could find something fun out there" she smiled brightly, and playfully gave him puppy eyes, with a pouty lip.

Snow had already began falling in Evermore, and it was the time of year where people could be surrounded by the beauty that Winter brought, and before, Hana didn't have anyone to enjoy it with. Now that she did, she didn't wanna waste this Winter sitting inside the house. "I mean being the house cats that we both are, it would likely bring us out of our comfort zones, but it could be worth the risk" she teased about the word risk, because someone like Hana had no idea how to even take actual risks. A song began playing in the movie that was quite catchy, which got the human dancing around in her spot, before throwing a small toss pillow over at Leigh. She laughed before glancing back to the screen, for once just genuinely enjoying herself.

He chuckled at their talk about books “They were my solace I guess, when things didn’t make sense in the world a story just kinda became the escape I needed” he had always turned to books and movies whenever he wanted to get out of the real world for a while. He glanced up at her when she mentioned needing a dog and grinned slightly “I swear dogs make everything in life just a little better, getting food, they’ll be there waiting for scraps, getting home from work, they’re so happy you’re home” he nodded a few times “You should check the shelter just after the holidays, there’s always loads of dogs who need a loving home around then” which was really sad to think about but at least maybe Hana could take care of one.

The way she dramatically responded to him admitting he was gay was definitely a first for him coming out but it made him laugh because it was so playful and unbothered “I do not, currently living the single life” he responded with a chuckle, had been for a while but he didn’t really mind because he had a lot to keep him occupied already, mostly the whole starting and running his own business which he was now looking to expand. “You better!” he warned her when she said she would read the lord of the rings books “and you can’t just cheat and watch the movies either” he gave her a stern look as a warning and chuckled. The talk about comic cons made him laugh “Your average person has no idea of the mania that ensues at cons” he smiled softly when she said she could help with costumes though “I will definitely have to consult you on my next endeavor then” he could be quite ambitious with the projects he chose that was for sure.

He nodded slightly as she talked about her parents and the things she had been through and he could tell there was a lot of struggle there, she seemed to have a lot of love for them but also a lot of frustration for the place they put her in “That sounds kinds scary” he admitted as he pressed his lips together, thankfully he had managed to avoid the whole controlling parents thing, his had always been pretty understanding and supportive. “I feel like overall world happiness would increase if everyone had a pillow fort like this” he teased with a chuckle making himself comfortable against the blankets. He gave a mock roll of his eyes when she listed out all the things she was happy with right now “You sound like one of those bratty kids ticking off their list, you’re only missing the pony” he grinned slightly because he was messing with her.

“Are you kidding? I watch the stupid happy movies all the time, some of them are so cheesy it actually hurts and I’ll still watch it” he shook his head in an amused manner “I’m just a sucker for happy endings and you’re pretty much guaranteed one with a cheesy film” albeit one that made you cringe a few times along the way but he could stand it. When she asked whether he had any siblings he shook his head slightly “Nope, my parents aren’t able to have kids but then adopted me when I was a baby, but it takes years of being on the register to adopt and in the end, they decided just to focus on the three of us” he nodded slightly. “I was planning on doing some Christmas shopping, you’re welcome to tag along, though I warn you when I go to the mall it’s hard to drag me out again” he always got tangled up when trying to pick out the perfect gift and would end up going around in circles.

“Though I can’t be held responsible if I lose you in the crowds, you’re so tiny” he joked with a laugh while eating pizza and watching the screen. His mouth fell open in shock the moment that the pillow collided with his cheek and he smirked “Imagine being foolish enough to give up your pillows” he teased back as he added it to the massive pile of ones in his nest and grinning playfully.

"Much like music is for me. So, I certainly get what you're saying" she nodded, smiling brightly. She chuckled at his comment about dogs "they do sound like great companions to have. while I don't have anyone waiting for me to return home from work during the early mornings, it would be nice to have a cute fluff ball greet me at the door" she expressed, grinning about the thought. She nodded when he recommended that she check the shelter just after the holidays "I'll be sure to do that. Me and Ha-joon were supposed to get one together, but what time he's not dancing, he's with friends, so I guess i'll be picking it out for both of us" she sighed. She was happy her brother had matured into the amazing guy he turned out to be, considering how much of a mother figure she'd been to him all his life, but letting go hadn't been easy. 

Hana smirked when she noted that it hadn't offended him the way she'd responded to him saying he was gay. She knew her humor could at times be a little extra and over the top, but at least she'd made him laugh. It always did her some good to see others smile, especially if she knew she was the reason behind it. "Nothing wrong with being single. I should know" she shrugged. It hadn't really bothered her ever, but she did wonder when she'd finally be trapped in some messy arranged marriage, where she'd feel utterly unhappy. She had only made that deal for the sake of her and her brother having a better life, but she found herself questioning her judgement when she'd so easily agreed to it all. 

Hana chuckled when he said she'd better, referring to Lord Of The Rings. She did feel slightly confined to have admitted that she'd never read, nor watched that series at all. "Noted. I promise I won't bother with the movies until after ive completed the books" she smirked, shaking her head, amused. She had been enjoying Leigh's company, and felt that this had definitely began turning into a decent friendship, one that she would only want to see progress. The human then clapped excitedly when he said he would consult with her the next time he made a costume, "you better!" she added, using the same playful tone he had just used to tell her she better try Lord Of The Rings, and flashed him a playful wink. 

It felt rather nice to have someone to confide in about her parents. While he didn't say much, just to know he was listening, meant a lot to her. It was hard to talk about all this with her brother. She had tried for so long to just protect him from it all, and now, even with her telling him the painful truth of everything, she still tended to steer clear of the topic of their parents. Ha-joon had been so hurt the day she'd told him everything, the brokenness on his features stayed with her to this very second. IT was a look she'd never forget. "I without a doubt agree to that. Everyone's troubles would definitely melt away in a pillow fort like this one" she giggled softly, and offered a bright smile at him. Hana snorted, blushing slightly when he said she sounded like one of those bratty kids ticking off their list, and said she was only missing a pony. "I mean, now that you mention it. Christmas isn't far from here" she batted her eyelashes playfully, as if to give him a hint that she wanted a pony for Christmas from him. 

Hana was surprised by his response about chick flicks, but found herself girnning even brighter "Well then, I know who to call when I wanna have a marathon of those movies. Ha-joon won't give in.. ive tried" she sounded  defeated as she threw her hands up and sighed. Hana smiled when he explained his situation about her question of him having siblings, finding it admirable that his parents had adopted. "That's good I assume? Sounds like they were good parents at least" she was only guessing, since he had said they'd focused on the three of them in the end, but she could have been way off, you just never really knew a persons situation. "Sounds like fun! I'm the same way, especially at the mall, I mean, there's so much to chose from, and so many stores ..I admittedly visit most of them twice, once on my way in, and once on my way back out.. and just hang it up if you get me around  cute clothes. I'll never make it out" she chuckled, because fashion had always been her true love. 

Hana glared at him playfully before nudging him "that will work to your advantage if for some reason you have to run with me.. you can just simply pick me up and go" she shook her head, laughing, but blushed slightly. She'd had plenty of people comment on her size, but it never bothered her, she was indeed a very tiny female. Hana's mouth fell open as if she were shocked that he took her pillow "Damn, imagine that" she chuckled and decided to share his pile instead by laying her head on the small space next to him after finishing her own food. "Oh boy" she trailed off, the Christmas carolers outside her apartment echoed to the inside, and she couldn't help but to look at Leigh and shake her head, hoping they didn't drown out their movie, even though they hadn't paid much attention to it regardless. 

"What's your favorite holiday?" she then wondered, since the Christmas carolers, and talk of Christmas shopping got her thinking about it. 

“They are” he spoke softly with a wistful smile on his lips, he definitely enjoyed being a dog owner and having a loving furball waiting for him every time he got back from the store, on the weekends it also gave him an excuse to get out and wander the city with her, they especially enjoyed going on hikes through the woods where she could run and explore off the leash “Well at least he can’t complain about which breed you pick huh? Just turn right around and sass him on how he wasn’t there to choose” besides he was sure that whatever dog she picked out they would both fall in love with it, dogs had that effect he found, just lighting up everything around them.

“Well true, but there’s a part of me that always dreams about meeting the right guy” he chuckled and shrugged a little, he’d been single since college which he graduated from about 4 years ago and while work and establishing the store had given him plenty to focus on in that time, he was getting to the point in his life where the idea of settling down seemed more and more appealing. “But then I don’t want to rush into anything either, rushing always seems to end in heartbreak” so he would continue as he was and hope that eventually, the stars would fall into place as some people described it. He grinned at her excitement to help with a costume “Hey if you’re into movies and TV shows you should definitely tag along to one, usually they have stars from the shows and everything, it’s a lot of fun, plus you could make a costume for yourself” and since she said her calling was fashion he was sure her costumes would be even better than his.

“True, I mean how can you be sad when you’re surrounded with softness, food and good company” he chuckled under his breath as he shifted a little just to put another pillow under his chin so that he could prop his head up with it “I tell you, ponies are much better in imagination than actually having one” he commented with a laugh thinking about his mother’s horse she had when he was younger and how it always made a mess of absolutely everything, Leigh remembered one time it had actually chewed one of his sweaters when he came to visit in the stables “Besides, do I look like I can afford a pony?” he laughed in an amused manner shaking his head slightly. “I am a movie addict, your problem will be trying to find a movie I haven’t already seen” when he went out on a Friday night it was normally to go and see a newly released movie “I went to see Frozen 2 the other night, that one was surprisingly good” considering the curse of sequels, he was thoroughly impressed.

“Yeah, though it would have been nice to have a sibling, I had all the attention I could ever want from my parents which made up for it” so while he had lacked in some ways he had gotten a lot of love in others. “I swear I will pick up so many things, carry them around, end up putting some back, buy a few, head off to another store and then suddenly feel disappointed that I didn’t get something” he shook his head slightly “I like getting gifts but I always get so focused on finding the perfect thing and then I doubt myself” he gave her a playful look and grinned “So basically what we’re saying is that we would probably be a really bad influence on each other” he had to wonder which of them would end up getting impatient and give up first.

He laughed but ended up nodding because she had a point, if they did need to run she would be really easy to pick up and carry, especially because Therianthropes had enhanced strength. He reached out and grabbed another piece of pizza which he demolished pretty quickly before flopping down against the pillows and laying there comfortably, admittedly not the way he expected to spend his afternoon but he wasn’t complaining so far, though he was barely paying attention to the movie, something was going on with a woman in a tow truck arguing with a teenager on her phone “I didn’t even know Christmas carollers were still actually a thing” he commented with a chuckle hearing them outside the building “Thanksgiving” he answered her question with a soft smile “It’s the one weekend I always make the effort to go back to my home town for” mostly because his apartment wasn’t big enough to prepare a massive meal in “What about you?”

Leigh had a really nice smile, so it sorta had a chain reaction on Hana, where she found herself grinning just because he was smiling, no matter what they were talking about. She chuckled when he told her to sass Ha-joon because he wouldn't be there to chose "I think whatever I pick, he will just be happy for Mickey to have some company" she started, sighing becaise Ha-joon usually took that dog every where he went. "Mickey is Ha-joon's pup. He recently got him, and takes the damn thing every where" she chuckled, figuring Leigh hadn't been introduced to Ha-joon's dog yet, simply because he hadn't mentioned it while they were talking about animals.

When Leigh mentioned meeting the right guy, Hana smiled brightly "You shouldn't have any issue in that. Any guy would be luck t have you, but I really get that you don't want to rush into it. From my own experience, it certainly does always end in heartbreak. It's nice somene else gets that, because people just assume im too cowardly to fall in love when I say I don't want to rush it, due to the fear of getting hurt. I guess we're in the same boat though. I think i'm kind of ready to meet someone to" she said thoughtfully. She couldn't help but wonder if she would meet anyone who could handle her schedules though. She worked at the INN for Thaddeus, and she was still a college student.

"Oh my gosh! do you know how much I love fashion? I can design a killer costume!" she squealed once more, hoping she wasn't coming off to strongly about it, but she was thrilled for the invitation "I mean, ive not really known how to live, so you just text me a date and time, and i'll be by your side" she grinned cheerfully and bounced her shoulders in a bubbly manner. "Is there anyone specific you'd like to meet at one of those from a show or movie?" she asked curiously, since they had similar taste in tv series she couldn't help but wonder.

Hana joined him and propped herself up in the same position, turning to face him as he talked about ponies, making her laugh yet again "I take it you've experienced having one then?" she asked curiously, "Do you ride?" she wondered, never having really thought about it herself but now that she did, horse back riding seemed like it would be fun. "Hey anythings possible if you want it bad enough" she smiled faintly, after hi asking if it looked like he could afford a pony "But yeah, I couldn't afford something like that either with a minimum wage job. When I finish college, especially if it's fashion that i pursue .. i'll buy us both a pony and we'll take them racing" she quipped playfully, and grinned slightly. Hana chuckled again when he said the issue was finding a movie he hadn't already seen "I will rise to that challenge. My issue is picking corny movies, when ive ran out of the good ones" she sighed softly, realizing she did indeed need to upgrade her movie collection. She would watch literally anything when she couldn't find something good.

"Yeah, having a sibling has been nice. Now, I couldn't imagine not having Ha-joon. But, my parents did play favorites i guess" she frowned, remembering the very words that Ha-joon said to break her heart 'you know our father better than I d' because it had only made her realize, that Ha-joon hadn't been given the chance that Hana had. She despised being the golden child, but it's unfortunately what she knew. "So, you spend hours shopping then?" she chuckled, amused by knowing that. Hana certainly related in that sense as well. She nodded with a oy smirk gracing her features when he asked if what they were saying here, was that they were a bad influence on one another "So toxic" she smirked playfully. "We'll have to try that someday, just going shopping together. It could be fun" she chuckled, wondering if he could keep up with her in something like that, or vise versa.

Hana's gaze averted to the flat screen in front of them as she grabbed another piece f pizza as well. She chuckled when he mentioned the carollers outside. "I guess when you live in a city like this, a little bit of everything exists. I couldn't do it myself. I bet they get cursed at so much" she shook her head. From the movies she had seen with carollers in it, they usually weren't liked. Standing outside someone's home, singing to the top of your lungs, especially if people were grinch like during the holiday's, normally didn't earn you any respect. Hana smiled when he said Thanksgiving was his favorite holiday before thinking about what her own was. "For the sake of fashion and going to the extreme's with dressing up, Halloween, definitely" she giggled, and held her finger up as to say hold on "I'll show you a few of the costumes Ive made for the past few years. I didn't design one this year, this year was more of a short notice kinda thing so bought one" she said as she walked to the closet and returned with a few of the ones she had designed by her own hands.

"This one (link) won me the most creative award two years ago, then this one (link) I wore this year" she grinned slightly, the first one had been done by her own hands, and it had been her favorite so far "I doubt ill top the first one ever, but that don't mean i don't have plenty of ideas. So if you ever want my assistance..." she loved the idea of designing stuff for other people and then seeing them proudly model it. So maybe her heart truly had already chosen to take the path of fashion.

"So, what's your idea type of guy?" she asked curiously, her smile only brightening a little. She had really enjoyed Leigh's company. While she hadn't planned on having company today, she was happy it turned out the way it did. She would have been home alone, and likely drunk as a skunk if Leigh hadn't came when he did.

“Well if he’s already got a dog then you deserve one of your own too huh? Only seems fair to me” he commented and smiled softly, he had three pets of his own and could definitely describe as a proud pet dad, he doted on all of them and spent a lot of his spare cash buying them toys or treats. “Well you’d actually be surprised, I’m pretty shy when it comes to dating and all that so I end up randomly coming out with embarrassing things and they never call back” he laughed softly, he was working on that part of himself and trying to be more sociable and make more friends but it wasn’t something that was immediately going to change about him, he was happy with the process he had made so far, he was friends with Eun and Ha-joon, not to mention Irene who came in the shop before and it seemed he had made a new friend today too.

“I had a pretty big relationship go pretty bad towards the end of college and I guess I just haven’t found my footing when it comes to love since then” he chuckled softly “I did, however, figure out my career and my three pet children Minha, Chip and Dale though” he smiled sheepishly, that counted for something considering at the end of college he had quite literally no idea what he wanted to do with his life and had even considered going home to his parents for a while, living alone wasn’t exactly an easy experience but he also kinda liked it. “I may just have to hold you to that, just to see what that brain can come up with” he was pretty creative when it came to Cosplay because it was based after characters he loved but he was absolutely hopeless at art in school so he guessed it was more about interest than anything “I will let you know when one comes up” he affirmed with a nod of his head. When she asked who he would like to meet he chuckled “I mean if I met anyone from the Harry Potter movies that would be pretty cool” that was a pretty realistic ask actually.

He glanced over at her when she asked if he rode “Not officially, though my mom had a horse when I was younger and I used to help her care for it, can’t say I ever actually got to ride it, kinda my moms thing more than mine” but he did intend to go for lessons here in Evermore one day because he always wondered what the experience was like and wanted to be able to call his mom and tell her that he experienced it. “Well true, but it might take several years and giving up literally everything else you want” he chuckled softly “I’m not that horse-driven” it was just something he listed before because that was always what the bratty young girls demanded to have. “I was adopted and my parent’s only child so I’ve been used to having all the attention all my life, I think it would have been very different with a sibling” he wasn’t really complaining, this was his life and he was pretty happy with how it turned out given that he got to go through college, ended up with his own business and generally felt like he was making his mark on the world.

He laughed a little guiltily when she said he spent hours shopping “Yes, and even then it’s not guaranteed that I’ll come home with what I intended to get” he shook his head a little, he really was out of control when it came to that kind of thing, he just found it so easy to get lost in what he was doing, lose track of time, be hopelessly indecisive and end up with something he never expected. “Well if we do then we should start really early on and hope for the best, also say a prayer for our bank accounts before we leave” though no doubts his would still be screaming at him by the end. “Yeah that’s cause it’s annoying as hell, no one wants to hear people sing badly for money” he shook his head in an amused manner, it might be fun for the people actually doing it he supposed but they always seemed to show up at the worst moment when you are i the middle of something or just got into your pajamas. “Oooooh Halloween is a good choice” he praised with a grin, he had fond memories of trick or treating as a child and he always made sure to have a bowl of candy ready for his own visitors every year now he was older.

He couldn’t stop himself from chuckling when she pulled out the costume which was literally a bowl of Froot Loops made out of pool noodles and a jug which poured the supposed milk “Okay that is literally everything” he responded as he inspected it with a bright grin, shaking his head because he would have never thought of something quite so out of the box “Decided to go a little more low-key this year I see” he chuckled, the onesie was cute but definitely not the star of the show today “You must really love creating things huh?” he smiled sweetly, she would definitely be good at making clothes if she was this imaginative. He was a bit surprised when she asked what his type was when it came to men and he bit his lip “Smart, funny, you know the kind who really knows how to laugh” he smiled softly because almost immediately Eun’s windshield wiper laugh came to mind, he blushed slightly and looked up at her “What about you?”

Hana smiled brightly when Leigh said if Ha-Joon had a dog, then she deserved her own. He had a point. For such a long time, Hana had gone out of her way to take care of her brother, even over her own needs, and now that Ha-joon was grown and doing his own thing, Hana felt like maybe this was her time to start living her life, for herself. Besides, it's not like Ha-joon hadn't been pushing her in that direction lately. Ha-joon wanted Hana to live her life, for herself. Hana found herself a lot more smiley than usual and was completely transfixed by just her and Leigh's conversation. Who could have guessed something so great to come out of someone stopping by for her brother? Leigh was humble, witty and made a lot of good points about life and other things. Hana chuckled softly when he said he was pretty shy about dating, how he always came out with embarrassing things and that it led to them never calling back.

"Well, I can certainly relate to that .. not that I come out with embarrassing things. It's more like, I come on a little strong I guess" she grimaced slightly, recalling how her and Sunmins time had gone. She couldn't help but ask herself if she had maybe come off too strong for him. Either way, he was someone she wanted to wait for. "Not getting calls back does make a person wonder where it went wrong" she shrugged and figured if she was worth his time, then he'd call when he was ready to. It's not like she hadn't provided a way for him to do so. Hana frowned when Leigh shared his bad experience with her "well, thankfully I don't even know what heartbreak feels like yet. But I have a feeling I will soon enough" she added playfully. But, Sunmin certainly did seem like a heartbreaker. "Ya know, being a proud pet dad does mean something. But, you'll get back out there in the dating game again I'm sure. Someone as pretty and sweet as you .. but it was smart on your end to take time with it. Heartbreak seems painful enough and I've watched it destroy lives in college." And she was only saying that because Hana had taken enough courses through college to get her feel in psychology. You get used to someone being there, so when they're suddenly not, it's hard to deal.

Hana's grinned sheepishly when Leigh said he'd hold her to it. She did love fashion and was sure she could come up with something to blow his mind. Hana couldn't help but giggle some when he said anyone from the Harry Potter movies would be good with him, as far as who he'd wanna meet goes. "I'd have to go with Paris Hilton. I bet she could direct me in fashion she chuckled some. Hana had been following Paris for a long time now, and loved her bling. That girl never went anywhere without sparkling from miles away. And, while Paris may not have been a fashionista, she damn sure knew how to throw things together and make them brilliant. "She's been my muse for years now .. fashion wouldn't be the same without her" Hana found herself blushing with how she began ranting about her love for fashion and shook her head at him, giving an apologetic look.

"Your mom sounds pretty country-like. Which is awesome" she added before she continued. "Do you talk to your parents a lot?" getting to know Leigh had been easy so far, and she couldn't help but think that it was okay to just ask him whatever.  Hana knew the do's and dont's with questions typically. But every now and then, she overstepped without meaning to. Hana lost her train of thought as Leigh said he'd been adopted. She wouldn't have guessed as much with him being the happy go lucky guy he seemed to be. But, it was fair to say she didn't know the battles he was fighting on the inside. "Seems like they did a good job raising you. I see your point though,  when you're an only child.. you kind of get used to that attention I guess" Hana wasn't an only child, but there had been so many times where her parents acted as if she was.

She smirked and gave an excited giggle when Leigh spoke of how they would need an early start and a small prayer for their bank accounts. She could see them having a lot of fun together in future hangouts, which made her even more happy that he had come by today. Hana quirked a brow but found herself chuckling when he spoke of how annoying Christmas carolers were. "I guess you state a valid point though. No one wants to deal with Christmas melodies all Winter long. Some people don't even seem to have any joy in their hearts for the holidays." she sighed and leaned back a little in her comfortable blanket pile.

Hana grinned slightly when he agreed that Halloween was a good choice. "I don't know, it brings a little comfort to ones life when you don't really like who you are. Halloween gives you a chance to be whoever you want, and for one day only, having no one whatsoever to judge you for who you are. Plus Halloween competitions are a lot of fun. I'm thinking about throwing a costume party this next year, and you should come" she grinned from ear to ear, a grin that reach her eyes as she averted her gaze over to him. She couldn't help but feel really proud of her costume, especially as Leigh showed so much interest and admiration towards it "It is huh?" she asked in return as he said it was everything. Hana then nodded when he commented on her going a little more low-key this year. That part was true. Compared to that cerial costume, her Winnie The Pooh one was very plain and simple, but who couldn't love a girl dressed in something that cute? She nodded with a certain excitement when he said she really loved creating things "Its just so limitless, ya know? You can do whatever comes to mind and mostly get really insane, or awesome results.. even beautiful results. I really wanna do a fairy costume" she expressed and was sure her eyes lit up just talking about it. She had so many ideas that sometimes, she'd get a headache if she couldn't at least write said ideas on a piece of paper, so it was nice to talk about them with someone.

Hana returned the same sweet smile when she noticed Leigh blushing. If that wasn't adorable, she wasn't sure what was. "Sounds like you know exactly what you want. I admire that, and those qualities are so hard to find sometimes. People seemed  to have forgotten the beauty of laughter and just being genuinely happy." The world was a miserable place, and Hana was guilty of being among the miserable people in it. She needed to work on it, and it wasn't like she was always unhappy, but to say she was genuinely at peace with her life, would be a lie. Hana quirked a brow when he returned the question. "Well.. it's pretty crazy but, I have sorta been shoved towards 'the perfect guys' or guys with an established last name. But, it's fair to say, that's created a rebllious side of me. I want someone who's going to look at me like i'm the only girl in the world, and treat me like i'm a queen. but I also want something / someone a little risky, someone with a dark side. A bad boy you could say" she smirked, and now found herself blushing too. "If my father heard that, he'd have a heart attack" she laughed, amused by how little she cared these days.

"What's your idea dream date?" she flashed a coy smirk at him, knowing these questions tended to make him blush. But, since they were on the topic .. she figured she'd add another question related to dating. "You know, ive never had a friend that I can talk about guys with.. this is a nice change" she could see it now, her and Leigh being the type of friends who go shopping at the mall and agreeing when an attractive male passes them.

He chuckled slightly when she expressed her equal lack of experience and luck when it came to dating “Maybe we need to trade places somehow, I need some of you confidence and you need some of my humility” they had opposite problems but the same result in the end, ending up alone because you failed to hold someone’s interest. “Try and keep it that way, nothing really prepares you for thinking you had everything figured out in life and then finding out the other person doesn’t feel the same way” he pressed his lips together, it was a long time ago but he still remembered how much it had hurt to go through that. She was right though, it was about time that he gave it another chance, he had seen the worst side of it, it was time that he got to experience the best again.

He grinned watching the way she practically lit up as she talked about Paris Hilton and how she had been somewhat of an inspiration for her, he had to admit when he thought fashion he didn’t think of her but the way Hana explained it had him smiling softly, she clearly was really invested in the work she was learning about and wanted to do something with her talent. “So what you’re secretly trying to tell me is that you absolutely love the color pink and want to wear diamonds everywhere at all times?” he was in touch with most celebrities and knew many of them, though he wasn’t big on fashion himself he was a bit of a sucker for watching those drama channels on YouTube which gave a daily dose of gossip out to the world. When asked him if he talked to his parents a lot he nodded a few times “I definitely try to, not always possible given how busy all of us are but, every Saturday night I make time to just chat with my mom” she worried about Leigh a lot so he used the time to tell her about his life and catch up on what was happening back home.

She could make anything she talked about interesting, he noticed, the way she talked about Halloween and her like for costumes made him happy because it was clear that she invested so much thought into the things she said. Leigh liked being around people who were thoughtful and intelligent like that, she seemed to know herself well. Sometimes he got a little lost when it came to knowing his own self but lately he really felt like he had found his footing when it came to letting in new people and making friends. “Honestly, parties and the likes with a lot of people I don’t know aren’t really a good setting for me” as someone who stlll suffered from PTSD from large crowds of people, he tended to avoid them at all costs “Just a thing I haven’t managed to feel okay with just yet” he hoped to get there one day but it was going to take time and small steps in the right direction. “I’ve never been crazy inventive but that doesn’t stop me enjoying making costumes, I just go more for the like for like approach” but he found her methods really creative and unique, he was sure she could come up with some really cool ideas.

Leigh smiled shyly when she said it sounded like he knew exactly what he wanted from a partner “Well I had quite a while to figure it out” he had been single for quite a long time now, by choice mostly because he’d had a few Tinder dates here and there which could have worked out but he just didn’t feel a connection with them like he wanted to. It didn’t help that for the longest time he had been really shy and didn’t really know what to say on a date so most of the time it ended up just getting really quiet and awkward after a while. He chuckled slightly as she explained that she tended more on the rebellious and bad-boy types “I hope you only mean that in the sense that he’d take you skydiving or something crazy and not in the, he treats you like crap way” he had met guys who expected you to stay with them when they were completely uninterested and often damn right rude to you “Because believe me you can do better than that” and she seemed liked she deserved better too.

Her question about a date made him consider it for a moment and then he shrugged slightly “I’m not sure I really have one, I just like being with a person who likes being with me, doesn’t really matter to me where” he chuckled slightly and leaned back a little to stretch out his back “It would be nice if he got along with my dog though so he wouldn’t be getting jealous of me spending time with him” his dog was definitely very important to him and he spent a lot of time at home just watching movies with her on his lap “You don’t have any female friends?” he questioned with a raised brow, he knew he was a social hermit but she didn’t seem to be the type.

Trading places with a guy like Leigh? Absolutely. He was humble, smart, attractive, the list could go for ages. Hana grinned slightly at that comment, and gave a simple nod of her head. "I think we just need to make it official and be one anothers wingman / wingwoman, since we both have one trait the other doesn't, we would make perfect wingmen for each other" she added a playful wink as she twirled a strand of her long black hair around her pointer finger while gazing from the tv screen back to Leigh again. Hana sighed, because his next words hit a nerve with her. "Well, I can't say ive not had my fair share of people who turned out to not feel the same as me. It stings a little, but life goes on and you move forward and hopefully find someone even better for you" her smile was sweet and innocent, much like her usual features were, while deep down, she struggled to understand why people led people on as if it was nothing. She'd tried her hand in dating, even before coming into Evermore, and for whatever reason, it still hadn't worked out for the young human. 

Hana grinned before giggling softly when he asked if she was really just trying to say she loved the color pink and wanted to wear diamonds on everything, every where she went. "Hmm you know, you make some really valid points Leigh. I really am not into the diamonds, at least not like Paris is. That bitch would sparkle in the darkest of nights" she shook her head amused, and gave a coy smirk. Hana usually didn't curse and talk like that, but she had her sense of sass every now and then. Hana found it really sweet to hear that Leigh had picked Saturday nights out, just to talk to his mom, and tell her about his life. It made her frown, because she definitely missed her own mom, and couldn'tn say that she hated either of her parents. She just felt so low about what they'd done to her and Ha-joon and all the secrets that were now piling up, only to hurt her and HJ in the long run. It was at times, a little too much for Hana to cope with. 

"I think it's great that you and your mom have that kind of bond. I think that's all any person could hope to have with their mom, I really miss mine" she didn't care that a tear had slipped down her cheek in front of Leigh. It was her mom she was talking about, not just anyone else, but her mom. She often wondered if Ha-joon hurt the same way she did, and so far, hadn't had the courage to ask him. It was definitely on the list of things to do though. Hana nodded and offered a warm smile when he said that parties were something he hadn't been able to cope with yet "That's totally understandable, there's plenty of fun things to do that don't require a large crowd of drunken idiots" she chuckled a little, because any party she had ever attended, consisted of nothing less than that. 

Leigh seemed to really acknowledge Hana's interests, likes, dislikes, fears etc. Isn't that exactly what a true friendship should feel like? It made her happy beyond expression that they could relate on so much, and talk as freely as they had been. This was definitely the start of something good in Hana's eyes. Hana leaned over and nudged him gently "Hey, time is golden for things like that. Ive had plenty of time to figure it out myself I guess. So no more time, we both need to get out there" she had a certain excitement or happiness in her tone, she really couldn't tell why that excited her, but Leigh was someone deserving of something magical, as much as she knew she was too. Hana couldn't help but tease him a little when he said he hoped that her liking for bad-boys only meant boys that would take her sky diving and such, and not guys who treated her like crap "Careful Leigh, it sounds like you're starting to care about me" she grinned, poking her tongue out at him playfully and flashing a pearly white grin at him. 

Hana nodded and sighed to herself while gazing down to her lap, where she fiddled with her fingers a little "Thank you, Im starting to realize that myself. We both deserve something good and pure and genuine" she could without a doubt say that Leigh deserved all the happiness in the world, simply for being one of the purest, most genuine guys she'd ever became friends with.  "Well, you do know what they say. Dogs are a man's best friend, so yes, it's a must that we find you a guy who will also love your dog" she grinned some, but narrowed her gaze slightly to his last question. "I can't say that I do" she started, and sighed a little before continuing "Sadly the fact that Ive only had male friends, has gotten plenty of judgement threw my way, some pretty terrible comments. People imagine a girl like me sleeps with all her friends, especially because all of my friends are guys and I guess people assume a guy and a girl can't be friends without sexual interaction" she hated the narrow minded ways of people in this day and time, but it didn't put a strain on any of her friendships, and if nothing else, she'd only made even more friends. 

"What about you? Do you have female and male friends?" she knew there were plenty of people like her, where if you're a guy, you only have females as friends and if you're a female, you only have male friends. The movie was nearly finished, and Hana didn't wanna see this night end,  but she did keep in mind that it only meant they'd be meeting up again hopefully for a shopping trip, but still, she'd stall him as long as he'd let her, simply because this was the most she had enjoyed herself just having innocent fun, in ages now.  

He laughed slightly when she suggested that they could be wingmen for each other “And by wingmen, you mean emotional support for one another more than anything” he commented and chuckled under his breath, he had to admit that dating usually felt like more effort than it was worth because nothing was for sure, that meant it was scary because you could fall for someone so deeply and then they could change their mind. They were in their right to of course, but that didn’t mean it didn’t hurt a little to lose them “You just have to keep telling yourself they weren’t the right person...they were a part of your life but not the entirety of it” he knew a little about heartbreak but he also recognized now that going through that had pushed him to seek out happiness which he found in himself, from doing the things important to him.

He had to laugh at the way she cursed like that when talking about how diamonds Paris like to wear “Hey at least you wouldn’t lose her easily, just bring along a flashlight and see who lights up the brightest” he chuckled softly, he couldn’t say overstated fashion like that was his thing, his limits pretty much went to the two small hoop earrings he wore “So what is your jewelry taste then?” he questioned with raised brows. He laughed softly when she commented about his relationship with his mom “I’ve always been like that with her, they say it’s mother and son and father and daughter right?” he shrugged slightly, he’d always been close with his parents and counted himself lucky in that respect “Maybe you should call her” he commented softly with a smile, it wasn’t too late to do so after all.

“Drunken idiots” he mused with a laugh “People are bad enough sober, give them alcohol and who knows what else they’re capable of” he had a lot of reasons to be naturally wary when it came to crowds, especially groups of men. He smiled slightly at her encouragement, it seemed like she was pretty positive, a good influence you could say and getting to meet people like that didn’t happen often for him so he was making the most of it. “I mean I think there is a certain amount of raw skill to it, some people’s minds work more logically, others more imaginatively” which wasn’t a bad thing, it made for diversity, but he definitely fell more on the logical side. He gave her a playful look when she warned him not to sound like he was caring about her “Why? Is it suddenly a crime to care about someone’s wellbeing?” he raised his brows in a curious manner.

She was right, after everything he had been through he thought he had earned his chance at happiness though he wasn’t sure exactly how that looked yet “True, though happiness doesn’t have to be found in someone, I’ve learned that over the past few years” he found real peace and purpose in starting his own business from scratch and putting everything he had into it. “Definitely, because there is no way I could ever give her up, I’d choose her over the guy if he tried to make me” he laughed shaking his head, he’d had Minha since she was a pup and raised her himself, she had been his companion for many years now. He raised his brows when she said she didn’t have many female friends “Well if you do sleep with all your friends, so what?” he responded with raised brows “Does it hurt anyone for you to have sex?” he rolled his eyes, imagine judging someone for being aware of their own needs “If that’s a crime might as well arrest me” he’d had his fair share of one night stands.

“I don’t have many friends full stop” he admitted with a shrug of his shoulders “Bit of a hermit, hard to talk to, though I’ve been getting better at that...I mean it was Ha-joon who approached me, if he hadn’t then I probably would have gone about my merry way” he had been kinda watching the movie but mostly he was more interested in their conversation and eating a few bites of pizza here and there “Well if you need someone to vent with, you’re welcome to call me, I’ll give you my number before I go” she seemed as well raised and kind as her brother, he liked her.

Hana gave a smile before following it up with a nod when he asked if she meant that they'd be more emotional support for one another than anything when she'd said they could wingmen each other "Of course. I think everyone needs emotional support.. support in general when it comes to the dating scene. Not everyone has that one friend they can rely on, but I definitely wouldn't mind that changing for myself" she grinned cheekily as she referred to Leigh being that person. Hana felt a little close to the male for as soon as it felt that they'd met. Sometimes time had absolutely nothing to do with it though, character did. The human smiled, enjoying the words Leigh spoke to her in this very moment when he had told her that sometimes, you have to tell yourself that a person wasn't the right person for you...that they were a part of your life but not the entirety of it. "I don't think I've ever heard a statement as true as that one. I definitely could use more of your words of wisdom Leigh" she giggled softly, but she definitely meant it all the same. 

Hana lit up a whole different level of excited when Leigh asked what her taste in jewelry was like before running to grab one of many jewelry boxes she owned. Hana had grabbed the box of jewelry she'd taken a new liking to with all the things in it that she had only recently just bought. "These earrings are one of my favorite pairs, but I have many when it comes to this style" and after pulling them out along with several other items in the box, Hana laid everything in a straight line so he could view her collection, and what her style in jewelry kind of was.  "To say diamonds are a girl's best friend is a huge understatement for me. I love it as much as I do fashion" she stated, hoping she didn't overwhelm Leigh too much with her excitement. Hana picked up a pair of the smaller hoops she had, a pair she hadn't even had the chance to wear yet and kept one, before handing the other to Leigh "They're new, you have one and I have the other.. consider it a friendship thing" she shrugged, blushing some because she wasn't the best at this sort of thing, and some people didn't enjoy random gifts anyways. 

The hoops were small, and cute .. and the color was pretty great too, plus.. it was just kind of cute to have something matching with the first person she'd felt drawn to as a friend in this city. 

Hana smiled warmly at Leigh, nodding her head yes when he asked was it mother son and daughter and father "Yeah, and I'd like to think that's true.. before everything, I seemed to be closer to my father and my brother was closer to our mother.. so yeah" Hana hated the fact that they were all tangled up in a huge mess now, that she barely even recognized the man and woman she called her parents these days. It simply broke her heart. But, when Leigh said she should maybe give her mom a call, Hana made a mental note right then to actually do so. It definitely was never to late until it was. Hana didn't want to wait and then something happen, and never forgive herself for not using the time she's got right now. 

"True that" Hana then giggled softly at Leigh's comment and a had agreed with him when he said people were bad enough sober. "From what I've witnessed already, I'm not sure I'd have much fun around the bar scene or nightclubs..  men and women both seem insanely disgusting when they've had one too many drinks.. to say that it lowers one's inhibitions is an understatement. I've seen women go home with men  that are down right raunchy and im just like.. I would rather walk outside and find a stray dog over top of that..." she blushed heavily after such a statement and maybe she'd went a little far with that one, but she found it insanely easy to be herself around Leigh. Talking to Leigh had reminded Hana of the last actual friend she'd had back in her hometown and it even made her miss her a little, but Hana was here now, and Leigh was awesome so far. He'd definitely filled some kind of void from where Hana had been missing her old friends. 

Hana held her hands up in a defensive manner when he asked if it was a crime to suddenly care about someone's wellbeing. "Not at all Leigh, care as much as you'd like.. i'm not gonna stop you" she grinned cheekily, and nudged against him gently. Hana smiled some when he said happiness didn't have to be found in someone, "That's very true too.. I think ive found plenty of happiness just in my dreams .. the things I want for my future. Fashion. That makes me very happy, I feel an inner peace when i'm in my element, and that's definitely not a bad thing." Hana would have lived a perfectly happy life should she stay single forever, as long as she had her fashion and the urge to help troubled teens. She could only laugh when he said he'd chose  her over a guy if the guy tried to make him "and I don't blame you..animals need people to truly love them as many that are out here getting abused and neglected, it's sweet that you love yours as much as you do" she smiled brightly and definitely admired that about Leigh. He was all around a really sweet guy from everything she knew already. 

At first, Hana's brow raised, but then, she giggled softly, finding even that comment admirable. "Well, at least you're honest. But no.. you're right at the same time. Sex is as natural as breathing sometimes... and I'd imagine life to be pretty dull without it. Judging someone for such a thing is probably the shittiest thing ive ever heard of" there was nothing at all wrong with people feeding their desires, and that didnt even always mean sexual ones. She simply despised how narrow-minded people tended to be about things like that. Especially about someone's sexuality in general, but she figured that was a whole other topic, for another time. Tilting her head to the side some, Hana glanced to Leigh, listening intently. He did definitely seem reserved and like someone who kept to himself when he had shown up looking for Ha-joon today, "Well, there's nothing wrong with being a hermit in your case, it seems like you open up pretty well when the right opportunity presents its self, or maybe it just takes the right person" she smirked playfully, being a bit bold in that statement perhaps. "Im glad my brother approached you though.. It has without a doubt paid off for me" she grinned happily over at him, referring to how she'd lucked up and got to meet him. 

Hana grabbed another slice of pizza, nibbling at it before Leigh said she could always call him should she need to vent with someone, causing her to smile a big goofy smile. This had been an amazing night, and she was thankful for how it seemed to be ending, at least she would have Leigh's number and vise versa, and they could plan to hang out again soon. "That sounds awesome Leigh, you've definitely made this a better night for me than what it would have been if I had been here alone all this time, so thank you for sticking around" she stated and reach him her phone so he could put his number in it, "Ill put mine in yours too if you'd like" she added, and waited to see if he'd hand his over or not. "I definitely think we should plan something soon, a trip to the mall or maybe a night in, we could decorate costumes and wear them around the city for the hell of it" she finished off with a playful smirk, and stretched her limbs some from where she had been sitting in one position for so long.
