[oh, thank god, okay. okay, first obstacle navigated—and now Lina just has to struggle with her own brain telling her she's overdressed for the entire date, but her brain yells at her for dumb shit all the time and she can handle this. sushi and conversation will help shut it up. she smiles, more genuinely than she was planning to.]
Thank you! It was, um. From the app. [she doesn't know what that's supposed to do here. maybe help salvage something? ugh. she'd rather be overly talkative than lost in her own head like this.] I like yours, too. And yeah, it's really nice to meet you in person!
[she glances towards the doors of the restaurant, knowing Jen is probably already somewhere inside and that she's definitely going to be watching this date to make sure it all goes well. no pressure or anything, jesus.]
So I don't know about you, but I'm really in the mood for some sushi right now. [she goes from a glance to tilting her head in the direction of the doors and keeps that not-as-fake-as-she-expected smile on her face.] Let's head in.
