Orihime beamed. "Thank you very much," she replied, wasting no time in hustling forward. Already there was a slight change in the heavy atmosphere that hung around him, and for that, she was glad.

Even if it meant learning that the weather was almost always poor. :(

Unafraid of heights, she went right up to the edge of the rooftop, then sat down, looking out over the ruins of the city. She pushed her hair back with one hand to keep the wind from blowing it into her face. Maybe the sky wasn't bright and blue, but the view up here was still pretty nice. There was still a lot she had yet to learn about the city, the ghostly silhouette of the ferris wheel, the river, and what appeared to be a nice civilization on the other side. But first things first.

"I'm Orihime," she introduced herself, turning her head to look at the man. "From Karakura Town, near Tokyo. Where are you from?"
