[ @hered1tary ] mystic falls brings a different atmosphere than most of the places she had visited. kannika was a constant traveler, someone who couldn't stay in the same place for too long because the lack of aging roused suspicion. in a way, it was sad ⸺ forming connections with people only to let them go after some time. learning about other people was a particular joy for the hybrid, one that too never got old. the mystic grill was strangely packed today, which was a welcome surprise but also meant that nearly all of the tables were booked. she sighs to herself, scanning the room, until a young man sitting by himself focuses her vision. kannika makes her way over, offering an awkward smile. "i'm terribly sorry to disturb you, but... would it be okay if i sat here? all the other booths are full."
