She didn't feel pressure, but that didn't mean she didn't try, either. Ever since she went on the mission, Azusa had wanted to have dinner with Melaka's other good friend. She had heard her name several times before; Melaka had mentioned Buffy, but Azusa had only spoken to her once. That's why she took it upon herself to be welcoming and get to know Buffy more.

The idol spent that afternoon cooking. Something ancient, something Melaka had never tried before. That meant no salads or sandwiches, so Azusa decided to take a different route. Traditional miso soup was a must, and so was pickled vegetables. It took her a while to prepare, but soon she was bringing those, rice, and hamburg steak back to her room and arranging the table. She was sure Melaka and Buffy would arrive soon; it was almost time.

"I'm glad. And yes, Melaka. It's a Japanese dish."

She sets down her bowl. "Ah, so how did the two of you meet, exactly?"

[herotypical]

"Here," was the simple answer. "Our wheres might be the same but our whens are different. I'd have to grow pretty old to meet Melaka back home. O-or learn how to travel through time."

Pfft, time travel. She actually laughed at that.

"Time travel! That'll be the day."

"Time traveling would be nice, though, wouldn't it...?"

Of course, being Azusa, she'd end up completely lost in time. It's a silly thought, though. She cracks open her beer.

And so Buffy and Melaka became the dynamic dramatic irony duo.

"I dunno. What about all the paradoxes?"
