Hinata blinked and looked down at Nadeshiko.
"Ah...Horiuchi-san, you need not grovel. I forgive you."
She offered her a hand.
"We are only human. We all make mistakes. Ancestors know, I have done far worse than telling a little white lie. I was just...concerned for you. And Akodo-san. That is why I got angry."

Nadeshiko took the hand and pulled herself up and off the ground. She spent a moment brushing some dew and dirt from her outfit before simply wrapping Hinata up in a warm hug. It only lasted for a few moments before she pulled back with a bit of a sheepish look on her face.
"I've always wanted to hug a friend.. I hope I wasn't too forward? and... thank you, I appreciate it. At my old school, it was not as nice as this. We were all commoners and we did not care for status, or rank or honour as much. Our lot in life was effectively sealed. I have been the subject of many lies and have told many more to avoid painful things but I need to learn that I don't need to do that here. I'm sorry once again and I'm glad you can forgive me.... Would you like to join my club?"

Hinata smiled gently.
"I do not mind if you hug me, Nadeshiko-san."
If they were going to hug each-other, Hinata figured a given name basis was appropriate.
"Just...I did a lot of lying recently, and it only hurt me and someone I care for deeply, okay? So I saw you doing the same thing and it scared me."
She was silent for a few moments, then frowned.
"I...will have to think about it. My current club schedule is full, but if you want me to I will see if I can drop one and join yours."

Nade shook her head slightly, moving to put her arms gently on Hinata's shoulders.
"I would never ask that of you Hinata-san. Was just a thought really, you would look dashing in a detective outfit I think."
She squeezed those shoulders lightly before letting her arms drop to her side once more.
"What clubs are you joining then? I hope I didn't interrupt anything by sending Akodo-san. He really wanted to help and make sure we were okay."

Hinata shook her head in return.
"No, you did not interrupt anything important. Just some chatter in anime and manga club."
She paused.
"Well, the Association for the Appreciation of Modern Visual Culture. They had to make it sound official, I suppose. But it is anime and manga club."
Hinata chuckled softly.
"For a Thunder, Mirumoto-sensei can be a bit of a dork I guess."
Her tone was playful and endearing, rather than disparaging. Hinata knew that she of all people could not judge someone for being overly verbose at times. Nor for being a dork, really.

"A dork, teehee. Delightful. Well, I'm happy to see you're feeling a bit better. I've been wanting to talk to you for a few days now but things keep getting in the way... even at the maid cafe you were too much busy being cute and making money."
Nade sighs a bit then, one hand coming up to her forehead to ensure Hinata didn't miss that she was mostly teasing.
"Also, I'm really happy that you're into manga and anime and stuff. It gives us something else to talk about. Of course I'm mostly into the detective and mystery stuff but I've found a few romance and fantasy ones I liked too. You're always welcome to borrow from my library at any time... I've even brought a bunch out here to try and get people interested."

Hinata smirked playfully.
"Well, I may have to take you up on that offer. You can borrow from my collection as well. I do have a bit of every genre, though a good portion of it is horror."
She paused for a moment, thinking.
"Which is sort of like mystery, if you think about it."

"Oh I am into horror, supernatural stuff is very interesting... especially since it exists around us! It's all real."
She glanced down at her phone then, frowning slightly before turning to face Hinata again.
"I'm glad we could get this off our chests, I won't keep you any longer but if you want to talk again I'm right here"

Takezou wanders by slowing as he looks at the odd display eventually coming to a stop. "What is preferred sidekick status..?" He says quizzically to no one in particular.

Tarik alongside Aziz also wandered around the place. He bowed to all present and sipped from his coffee.
Why five?
He wasn't that familiar with any of those present, thus he opted to check out the gaijin books.
