Just like he predicted, Idia is nowhere to be seen. Well, outside of a tablet, which Cater isn't about to just chat up. Kind of has a feeling if he tried he'd get muted, anyway. He's read (and reread) the doujinshi he borrowed enough that he's ready to return it, but how is he supposed to do that when Idia is nowhere to be found? It's so awkward bringing this thing to class with him and hiding it in his history book every day...what if Trein notices it? Yeesh!
But it's not like he can barge into Ignihyde again. Well, the chances of anyone catching him aren't terrible, but he'd still rather not go back there just for this reason. And it's not like he can ask Ortho to return it. Those young, robotic eyes must be protected! So, Cater finds himself stuck, only to be pleasantly surprised when Idia finally makes his return.
Cater's already-smiling face growing brighter, he approaches to greet him. "Morning, Idia! Hey, wait up after class, okay?"
And with that ominous note for poor Idia to dwell on, Cater goes and finds a seat, mercifully not claiming the one next to him and instead leaving plenty of space between the two of them.
