Minori was leaning over the railing at one of the high points of the tower. Today had seemed like a nice day to go out, and the redhead needed some sort of inspiration for a gift he had in mind for when they got Hotaru back. It would take a lot of work, but Mini was use to this in his work as a sculptor. He wasn't famous for it by a long shot, but he was still pretty damn good at it.
He'd admit, him and Hotaru weren't incredibly close, and they fought like cats and dogs, but he still cared for her. Joining a gang, he had no sympathy since that was her own choice, but she was kidnapped and held against her will. She didn't deserve that... He sighed, not aware of a set of footsteps behind him.

Cross had went to the tower to try and clear her thoughts a bit. As she made her way up she noticed a familiar red head and started out to the platform. She didn't exactly know why she came to the tower when there were so many other places to go. It honestly made no sense either, she was afraid of heights. Instead of joining Minori at the railing she sat down against the wall and looked up at the red head. She cleared her throat and smiled up at him. "Fancy seeing you here." she stated with a chuckle.

The Ookami jumped, startled with the sudden voice. He turned around and saw Cross. He smiled unevenly and waved a little. "Uh, hey there." he laughed awkwardly. "What're you here for?" he asked, raising a brow. She caught him off guard, he wasn't in his best mood but he'd try not to be a complete smart ass for once.

Cross sighed and looked out at the sky. The clouds were darkening and it looked as if it would rain. "Oh, I just needed some air and silly me decided to climb this dang tower." she didn't add the fact that she was terrified of heights. She got over some of it the first time she came here but it was still in the back of her mind like a taunt. "How bout yourself?" she asked lazily as she looked back up at him with a small smile.

Minori shrugged, deciding to go and join Cross beside her. "Just thinking." he said. "I've got this project in mind for when she gets back." he didn't have to emphasize on who 'She' was. "For her and Jack really, I think it's about time I did something for her anyway." he sighed, looking at the sky as well. He played with the scarf he had drapped over his shoulders, a habit he had picked up the moment he started wearing them. They were comfy and they made his neck warm(He couldn't stand the cold, which was why he was rarely ever seen wearing a short sleeved shirt.)

Cross's eyebrows rose in surprise. "Really? What kind of project?" she asked genuinely interested. She knew that Mini and Hotaru looked like that never really got along but it was all just something like sibling rivalry. She hadn't had much of a chance to get to know Mini and wondered what he could do for the young couple once they got Hotaru back.

The redhead instantly lit up, smiling probably the first genuine smile he had shown in a while, he always got this excited when talking about his projects. "A music box." he explained. "I'm gonna make one for them. Something that's got a part of both of them in it." he had heard from Suda that Jack played piano, and he knew Hotaru loved to dance. He'd find a way to put that together, it was a rather easy combination. "I'm gonna make in myself, and I know a guy who can add the music part in." He was pretty excited to start on it in all honesty. He hadn't made a music box before, but he was sure he could make one with no problem.
Minori paused when he realized how anxious he seemed and quickly cleared his throat, looking the orher way and wipping the grin off his face. "So... What do you think...?"

Cross smiled when she saw Minori's face light up so much by just talking about it. She was impressed, she knew that Jack and Hotaru would like it. "I think it sounds wonderful." she replied truthfully. "You should totally make it as an engagement present or something. I think Jack's finally going to get up the courage to propose when we get her back. Not immediately of course but you know." she replied smiling. She'd been thinking that it needed to happen for sometime now. The two were made for each other.

After hearing Cross' comment Minori gave a grin. "Well it's about time." he laughed. "We were teasing them about it one day actually, me 'Suda and Tekka. Called him Mr. Megumi." he chuckled a little. "I don't think he liked that." Besides, Hotaru King had a much nicer ring than Jack Megumi did if he said so himself. Still, it was pretty amusing messing with them like that.

Cross chuckled shaking her head. "We all know who wears the pants in THAT relationship. Poor Jackie never stood a chance." she said chuckling again. "Of course the name says it all." As much as she teased her friends, she loved hanging out and talking with them.
She noticed Mini's ease with leaning against the rail and raised her eyebrows. "How are you able to lean against that? Doesn't the height worry you?" she asked hesitantly.

Minori looked down for a moment, turning his head back to Cross and shrugging. "Only if I think about it too much." he wasn't really afraid of heights, so long as he was careful he knew nothing was gonna happen. He eyed Cross for a moment, a small hint of a grin comming across his lips. "Is someone scared of heights?" he asked teasingly. Big bad Cross was actually scared of something now huh? That was actually pretty funny.

Cross's eyes widened and she shook her head fast. "N-no of course not!" she exclaimed. She chewed herself out in her head for giving it away. "I'm not scared, I'm just uncomfortable with them." she muttered trying more to convince herself than Minori. She glared at his grin and crossed her arms across her chest defiantly. She was not afraid of heights, they were just unpleasant and unnecessary in her opinion.

The redhead laughed a little, she was too funny! "Then how about you join me over here if you're not scared?" he asked her, a smug grin taking shape on his face. "It's not that bad really. The railing's sturdy, you won't fall." he explained, attempting to shake the bars of the railing to prove his point. They stood firm, and Mini had some pretty good arm muscles so that was saying something.

Cross stiffened when he started to shake the rails. Was he crazy!? She thought to herself as she panicked. She bit her lip trying to figure out if she could really get up and walk to the rail. She didn't have to look down and she could hold onto the railing really well. She had a great death grip.
The dark haired Kuma closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. With shaky legs she got to her feet and walked slowly to the railing. She closed her eyes again as soon as the had the rail within her steely grips. "See, not scared." she grumbled, her voice quivering slightly.

Minori gave a laugh at Cross. "Alright," he said calmly, nodding his head carelessly. "Now look down." he grinned. She was scared, she was just too stuborn to admit it, it was no wonder her and Hotaru got along so well.
He nudged her shoulder. "C'mon, nothing to worry about." he looked over the railing for a moment, then back up at her. "I got you, nothing to worry about." he grinned.
