Yukio has posed:
Mel's Roadside Diner normally fills up much later in the day, so for now it's relatively empty, which means that one tiny patron stands out quite a bit more than others.

Sitting on a metallic stool, snapping pictures all over the place on her phone set in a Hello Kitty shaped cover, is a diminutive Japanese girl. Her hair is a vibrant pink, she's dressed in a gorgeous black haori with a pink sakura pattern, tied with a purple sash. Her black leggings are more normal, but for shoes she is wearing black jika-tabi, no doubt, a foreginer who is not doing her best to blend in.

She stops snapping pictures when the waitress sets a strawberry milkdshake in front of her to her squee'd cry of joy, "thank you!" She says while immediately snapping a picture of the shake as well.

Harvey Dent has posed:
The door to the diner opens, and a man that is certainly not a local makes his way in. Harvey is dressed for a day off, in a pair of rugged blue jeans, hiking boots, and a flannel over a faded Smashing Pumpkins shirt. He rolls his shoulder a bit as if it smarts as he peers about. "Wow, smells great in here."

The man makes his way to the counter and slides down onto a stool, reaching out to pick up a menu. "Mn. Hey, kid, how're the burgers here?," he asks, glancing aside at Yukio. He flashes her a friendly smile.

Yukio has posed:
When Harvey walks in, Yukio turns and seeing how he's dressed, she immediately snaps a picture as well, "herro," she greets with a beaming smile. Asked about the burgers, her smile somehow becomes even bigger and more radiant. "Big!" She giggles at the quesiton, "try, Cowboy Burger! Very big! Very yummy."

Harvey Dent has posed:
"Cowboy burger, huh? Well, alright. Just don't tell my trainer," he replies with a lopsided grin. The man turns towards the person behind the counter. "One Cowboy Burger, please...and a Sprite. Or...whatever lemon-lime soda you have. Doesn't matter." He brushes his fingers back through his dark hair and glances over at the girl again.

Yukio has posed:
Yukio giggles and offers, "very training, good metaborishim!" An easy out. "Prus, Cowboy Burger, it has...bacon, big juicy bacon!" Maybe they should hire her as a waitress at Mel's considering how she's selling the very burger that is just being placed on the counter infront of her. "Oh, rook! Rook! So big! Big hamburger!" She immediately reaches to snap a selfie with the burger next to her head, something to brag about at school later on. Reaching for a sip of her shake, she asks, "you think I finish Cowboy Burger?"

Harvey Dent has posed:
He chuckles softly. "It's as big as your head, sweetie, but...yeah. I think you've got the gumption." Harvey turns as his Sprite is set in front of him, and he quietly thanks the server. He fishes his cellphone from his pocket and thumbs through a few text messages before he shakes his head at something and sets the phone down on the counter.

Yukio has posed:
"Big Burger!" Yukio certainly agrees, though when he does give her the credit to be up to the task, she looks a bit disappointed. "Smart man!" She compliments, before grabbing the burger in both hands and announcing, "itadakimasu," more a force of habit than anything, as she grabs a big bite that she seems to struggle in containing, chewing as fast as she can.

Harvey Dent has posed:
He grins softlly before his own burger is set in front of him. He nods a thanks and then turns to start on it. He's slower then the girl, taking his time after a long day on the road. "Good?," he asks her, glancing over before he picks up the burger to take a bite for himself.

Yukio has posed:
Yukio looks a bit unnerved as Harvey asks a question while her mouth is full to capacity, with unparalleled Japanese manners, she doesn't dare speak with her mouth full. Instead, she puts her burger down, uses the palm of her hand to cover her mouth, and does her best to munch as fast as possible, to avoid keeping Harvey waiting for a reply too long. It can't be healthy, but she somehow manages the feat in record time, before removing her palm, and smiling apologetically to Harvey, "...yes..." is her very precise reply.

Harvey Dent has posed:
He grins softly as he watches her manage that feat, and then he shakes his head a bit. "Impressive." The man turns back to his own burger, working on it in between sips of his soda. "So, are you visiting here? I'm just passing through on my way home."

Yukio has posed:
"Thank, thank you, I try," Yukio offers shyly, before reaching for another sip of her shake, nodding as she sips, "I come for schooru. a foreign studento. Preased to meet you, name is Yukio, and your name?"

Harvey Dent has posed:
"Harvey," he replies. "Nice to meet you, Yukio. Well, that must be exciting, huh? I never really got to travel as a kid and I regret that a lot. Just wasn't in the budget."

Yukio has posed:
Yukio looks intently at Harvey, and yet, something kinda-sorta gives the impression she might not have fully comprehended all that he just said. Regardless, she still nods and replies with a single word, "yes." Before taking another bite of her hamburger, which is somehow half eaten by now. She truly seems inspired by American Burgers at the moment.
