[Lunch does sound nice, and it really was Mafuyu who helped him (albeit in disguise, to hide her shady past), but should she accept such a thing? She would have helped him anyway without the offer of lunch, that's what friends do, right?
Then again maybe Makoto means a lunch at home, not at a restaurant. Something like that would be okay, she figures.]
Sure I'll let him know. ... It's not a date-thing, is it?
[She has to ask because she didn't sense anything there, but she is also abso-fucking-lutely terrible at sensing said things when it involves her. She already had someone confess to her when she thought they were just a friend, so. Better check on that real quick.]
Okay good, I think he would be up for lunch. When I talked to him about it he seemed to get along with you too.
[Because she might as well make it seem like 'Natsuo' is cool with Makoto. She's friends with him anyway and it would be hard to act indifferent towards him.]
I'll let him know, and he'll probably respond from my phone, but I'll tell him to make it clear that the response is from him.

[ It was the day that Rei found out that Nagisa had disappeared mysteriously from his phone and from his house since he probably went over to check there along with any places that Nagisa could have gone. He hadn't talked to anyone other than the people in his house yet about this since he needed some time to himself, alone in his room. He sure was glad that he had the room to himself today since it was embarrassing just how emotional he was getting since this was so much worse than a break-up, especially since he knew that there was a possibility that he could come back, just like Sousuke did, and lose all his memories of this place. He could never explain all of this to Nagisa again, about them dating and everything.
Honestly, it was hard for him, and he even had big plans to clean and do stuff today, but right now he was just being upset in his room and constantly checking his phone just hoping to get a text message from his boyfriend--and honestly he had probably fallen asleep since his eyes were already tired enough. Though, that small nap didn't last long when he heard a commotion in the kitchen which sometimes meant that Mikoto was trying to cook, so he just ignored it. But...it wasn't going away or stopping--it sounded like someone was breaking something? Couldn't Aikuro go handle this...Apparently not. The noise just wouldn't stop and Rei was beginning to wonder if someone had locked themselves out and forgot the keys, since it kind of sounded like someone was trying to break in?
Oh no...what if someone was?! What if it was Nagisa?! Maybe he needed his help! So, here goes Rei, speeding into the kitchen and before he even let his eyes adjust--which he forgot his glasses in his room, good job-- he called out to the person in front of him. ]
What is all this noise?!? Huh--[ Mafuyu? ] Kurosaki-san?
[To be fair, Mafuyu hadn't meant to break in via the kitchen. She had originally been going for Rei's room, to knock on his window, but she had misremembered which one was his. Breaking in happened when she saw it was the kitchen, because the ice cream in her hands had started to melt and she thought that putting it in the freezer while she went looking for Rei was a good idea.
But then hey, Rei showed up! That makes it easier for everyone! Though now she has to explain the stuff she accidentally knocked off the windowsill while she tried climbing in the window.
Speaking of which, she is currently balanced on the windowsill itself, one leg inside and one still partially out.]
Oh hey, there you are!
[Instead of climbing in fully, she holds up her conquest: a six-pack box of creamcicles.]
[ Rei folded his arms, squinting so that he could see her sort of as his glasses had been off and his eyes were clearly red--he probably looked like a hot mess right now. He examined the surrounding area and noticed the window and noticed that some part was missing, though he couldn't tell automatically because he wasn't wearing his glasses.
Though one question was still on his mind: What was the meaning of this? Had Mafuyu found out or something? No, not even Makoto, Haru, or Rin had contacted him so there was no way she knew... ]
You were looking for me? [ He adjusted his...nonexistent glasses...which he really wished he could hide behind right now. ]
You brought ice cream? Is there an occasion that I am forgetting about? I mean, sure, but...?
The occasion is that it is summer and they were having a sale on ice cream.
[She may or may not have another dozen boxes of various popcicles at home.
But now that she can see Rei more clearly, she can see that something is wrong. She has no idea what it is, but his eyes look really red. And doesn't he need to wear glasses to see?]
...though maybe there is an occasion? You look like you got hit by a truck or something.
[ Not that he was really complaining since it's not like the two of them could eat a whole box of those, though he wouldn't be surprised if he knew Mafuyu had a bunch at home still.
Though, when she commented on his looks, he immediately smoothed out his hair and scoffed like three times, trying to cover up just how upset he clearly had been. ]
I-I did not get his by a truck!!! I just...woke up from a nap!!! And forgot to put on my glasses! [ Not a total lie--but wait...he also forgot his phone...what if-- ]
EXCUSE ME, I FORGOT MY PHONE!
[ And he literally ran off to his room, grabbing the phone to see if there were any new messages from a certain someone and of course...nothing. Rei sighed to himself and put back on his glasses before returning to the kitchen promptly. ]
[By the time Rei comes back, Mafuyu has made it into the kitchen and is sitting at the table. The box of creamcicles is open, and she has opened her own, but has not started eating it yet. A second one is out of the box, though still in its wrapper, sitting on the table by the other chair.]
Nah, I bought a few, but left them at home for later. I didn't think we could eat that many between us.
[They would need a bigger group for that.]
So. What's got you napping at 2 in the afternoon? No offense, but you don't look like the kind of guy to take naps.
[ Rei knew better than to eat more than two anyway, really, but who knows with these sports guys? He could probably eat 4 and be okay or maybe just have a slight stomach ache, not that he would be in his right mind to know not to eat too many of them at the moment. ]
You're correct, but I'm surprised that you brought them over here for no apparent reason, Kurosaki-san.
[ She could have texted first--it's not like he wasn't watching his phone all day, which he currently kept glancing at it ever so often.
And of course she had to ask; honestly he didn't plan on sleeping and probably hadn't been asleep more than 30 minutes before she came here, but apparently it was his mind that was exhausted from earlier. It's not like he had a reason to lie to her since she had been nothing but nice to him, but this was...really heavy to just drop on her and he did not want to start crying again in front of someone that he was slowly becoming better friends with. Maybe he could be vague? ]
I usually don't take naps, actually. I just...fell asleep?
[ For someone that could talk a lot, Rei sure was keeping it short, something Mafuyu would probably notice. ]
[It is quite suspicious indeed! But Mafuyu's mind is going in an entirely different direction with it.]
So you just fell asleep...It sounds like you don't have enough energy.
[An ice cream bar probably isn't the right source of energy, if someone is lacking it. But ice cream is what they have, and sugar makes people hyper, right? So yes, she is inching the ice cream bar in his direction.]
Try eating something! If it's a lack of energy, something in your stomach might help.
[ Well, she probably wasn't wrong since his stomach had been in knots as he had been crying earlier so he hadn't been able to eat much of anything. Rei knew it wasn't really just a 'lack of energy' but he would humor her and take an ice cream bar. ]
Yeah, you're right. I haven't had a proper meal today, actually, so thank you. [ Take better care of yourself, nerd. ]
[ it was time--though honestly, lulu was pretty excited about this, concerned and excited. if only because she's on guard for anything sneaky going on. it seemed like everything was set up for a good time though, so it could be good!
new friend!
for now she made her way to the location, dressed in the usual she was on the hunt--on the hunt for this person that actually bid on her ]
[Mafuyu is dressed nicely today too. Normally she goes for oversized t-shirt and big baggy pants, she is wearing quite a dress when she finds Lulu. She will wave Lulu down when she sees her, too.]
[ that is some dress, definitely one that gets everyone's attention. so that coupled with the fact that she's being called for lulu wastes no time making her way over, giving mafuyu a bit of a sniff before putting her hands on the girl's shoulders ]
Hi Lulu! I'm Mafuyu. I think we talked once, over text?
[The sniff is...well, weird, but Mafuyu has seen weirder, so she doesn't comment on it yet. She does hesitate for a moment before relaxing and being friendly, though.]
[ sniffing just comes with the territory mafuyu, it can't be helped. but what does happen now is that she gives a great big smile, moves quickly and laces her arm around mafuyu's ]
Lulu remembers, everyone that responded was very friendly--and you don't see dangerous at all!
[ she looks thoughtful for a moment, finger to her chin ]
I was reading in a magazine before... About dating. I think today I'll let you figure out what we do!
Now let's see... [ she thinks on this for a moment ]
I like to take baths, eat, cook, fishing is also pretty fun too even if it's a little harder in this form. I've learned that you have to leave some clothes on for when you catch things.
Mmhmm~ clothes on! I mean, even at home we wore clothes, it just wasn't the same though. [ she's not even thinking about how this sounds, taking mafuyu's hand ]
What kind of fish do you like? Trout? Salmon? What's your opinion on honey?
[ So we already know Takasu is friendly and cheerful, so he's not all too embarrassed to approach a friend (it's not like he has a crush on her, like he does on his wife) and just randomly give her a kiss on the cheek. ]

I can tell him to call you when he gets home, though.

I think he said something about going to the arcade?
You might be able to see him there, if it's something that can't wait.
