While munching on his sandwich, Duo frowned when Milly state out his part of the agreement. He didn't just frowned, he even pouted. And since he's chewing his food, that's a hard task, but Duo managed to make it look cute, surprisingly.
By how annoyed she seemed, the lad then decided to give her some peace and continued eating his sandwich contently...and clearly very happily. He let out this quiet satisfying 'haa' after each swallow, like he's enjoying every bite. Or more or less, grateful of every bite, it seemed. It's a habit of his.
He finished his food quicker than Milly, since he took larger bites. He was so content of the food, he almost burst out another random comment, but stopped himself midway with his mouth opened when he remembered he's supposed to stay quiet, so Duo closed back his mouth.
He took a sip of his min tea for a bit, another silent 'haa', before going to the fries before it gets cold.

Milly tensed at each haa he released, showing obvious annoyance on her face. After losing her patience again, Milly looked up at him while he was drinking it tea. "Will you stop making that noise? It's very obnoxious." She glared at him a moment longer to get the message through then continued at her sandwich until she was done.
She then closed her eyes for a moment, taking a quiet breath in through her nose then out through her mouth before looking at him again, still frowning in annoyance before turning her attention to her fries and beginning to work on them next.

Duo's eyes hovered over his tea to the source of that voice, and smirked while sipping. He's very glad the teacup covered his grin, actually. "What noise..?" he asks innocently, settling his cup on its plate gently without a single clank.
Then he saw her going to her fries, and his eyes lit when an idea was struck in his head. He pulled his own fries near him, then quickly pulled some fries to form words out of it. Since he's not allowed to speak, he can always write to communicate, right? Well, not write actually, more like arranging fries into words.
After he's done, he pushes his plate towards Milly and turned it around so she could read his fries. 'HI I'M DUO MAY I KNOW YOUR NAME?' The braided man was partly munching on his fries as he showed the plate to her with a smile.

Milly annoyedly ignored his question and just continued at her food, trying to focus on enjoying her food and not paying attention to him. However, she was a bit surprised when she saw a plate of fries in front of her writing out a sentence.
Her eyes were wide for a moment and she paused short of sticking another fry in her mouth while she read. The very gesture of writing out such a thing in fries both surprised and somewhat impressed her that a tiny hint of pink worked its way onto her cheeks. She slowly lowered the fry in her hand back onto her plate and looked up at Duo with a straight face.
She let out a small sigh and closed her eyes before looking at him again. "Milly." She finally replied, watching him as though waiting for his reaction to see if he would be surprised that she answered or just happy.

She responded! Duo's face lit up when this girl finally introduces herself, it's almost like it's the limelight of his day. It made him so excited, it's so easy to see how difficult he is to pretend to be mute. Then again, that's part of the deal.
His lips opened up to show off his whites, and his hands in fists under his chin to contain his exhilaration. Basically, it's not so difficult to detect when Duo's happy. When he's happy, then he's really happy. And since the very reason of his happiness is getting a girl's attention, then he finds it to be worth the trouble.
The mechanic then pulled the plate of fries back to himself, rearranging them to a question now. He didn't waste the chance to munch in a few unnecessary ones to give the plate some room for his letter-arranging.
"PERMISSION TO SPEAK", it spelled. Duo then takes the small bowl of ketchup sauce that was provided with the fries, dipped a finger in it, then draw a question mark right at the end of the question before spinning it around for Milly to read.
Accompanied by the fries, Duo clasped his hands together too, begging for her to answer yes.

Milly expected the guy to be happy, but she didn't expect him to be so excitedly happy. He looked almost like a little boy filled with excitement over something so tiny that it made her blush looking at him.
She immediately lifted her hand to cover her face a little and looked away, her eyebrows frowning in frustration at the fact that his expression of joy made her blush. She thought to herself what she was doing then noticed the plate being pushed towards her again.
The words on the plate reminded her of her home, her family. She grew up surrounded by military men who would often play with her something along the lines where she was in charge and they had to request such permission. Keeping her hand covering her face a little, Milly smiled slightly at the memory.
When she managed t o push the smile and blush off her face, Milly looked up at Duo again who looked like he was begging. It made her think of a puppy. She tried to tell herself to stop thinking of cute things that would make her blush in his presence and just nodded in response to his question, trying hard to keep her face straight still.

Duo pretended not to notice, but spotting a girl blushing like that made him appear even happier. It made him smile behind his clasping hands, and he closes his eyes to internally thank the heavens for granting him the chance to possibly gain a new friend.
It might seem a little extreme, but Duo easily feels grateful over anything, even tiny unrecognizable things. Perhaps it's because he was brought up inside a chapel, or perhaps that annoying negative voice in his head kept reminding him that he isn't worth all the good things in this world; a friend especially.
Slowly opening his eyes, the mechanic caught side of Milly staring straight at him. That startled him so much, he backed away and hit his back against the chair's backrest with a thud. "Wah! That surprised me!" Duo blurted out automatically, and then slapped a hand over his lips, just in time to see her nodding her head of his question.
In an instant, Duo's face brightens. "YAY!!" He had his arms straight out above his head and waved in the air excitedly. "Thank you! You're COOL!" And from wildly waving his arms like that, he gave her two thumbs up with sparkling white teeth and a very happy nod.
Aside from being unnecessarily loud and childish, one can tell that Duo's very good in expressing his emotions; happiness especially. "Be my friend??"

Milly's eyes widened slightly when he was surprised backwards before her nod. His excited reaction then again made her think he was just like a small excited boy. His action of waving his hands in the air made her have to catch herself to keep from laughing at the ridiculousness.
Then when he told her she's cool with his thumbs up and that sparkling smile, she cracked slightly. Milly covered the lower part of her face just beneath her eyes with both hands as she let out one single airy partial chuckle that sounded like a noise someone would make when in disbelief. Her eyebrows tweaked somewhat, giving him a look as if he were a little crazy.
When he asked to be friends, she cleared all other thoughts out of her head for the moment. Her expressions fell to blank and she lowered her hands to her lap. She stared at him a moment before responding. "How can we be friends when we're still only strangers who know nothing of the other?"

Duo enjoyed it, it made him smile seeing her react to his idiocy. Actually, he acted like an idiot just for that reason, in trying to make a girl smile. Milly blushed too, so that's a bonus!
After she caught herself in that straight face did his smile dropped and coughed to clear his throat in order to respond to her, "What do you mean, nothing? I know your name's Milly~" He smiled at her slyly, but only just enough to indicate that he's merely playing around.
"Plus by the way your index finger bent from how you held your fork earlier, I assume you're a gunner too?" He added with a smirk and a different glint on his eyes, but that didn't last long because he burst into fits of silly chuckles. "Hahah~ I'm kidding~!"

Milly raised an eyebrow at him trying to use the fact that he knows her name as reason for friendship. "Is he stupid?" she thought for a moment after that. Her expression then dropped again, an annoyance growing in her eyes as he explained that he figured out she was a gunner. Her face looked angry by the time he burst into chuckling.
His laughter caught her off guard a bit and she looked at him in slight surprise. She looked away annoyedly and spoke in a matching tone. "Don't joke to someone about what kind of person they are by their physically. You may just piss the wrong person off someday."

Duo blinked at Milly while munching on his fries, "Oh, sorry. Did that made you angry?" And he asked that with his mouth full of fries too. The mechanic didn't seem to notice his lack of manners though, and swallowed what he chewed before speaking again.
"That's the whole reason I want to befriend you, silly Milly~" he smiled at her, reaching for his teacup now, "Because I don't know anything about you, except your physical appearance. And I want to know more of you, I thought that's the whole reason of establishing a relation such as friendship.." He nodded at her mildly as if he's hurt and then sipped his tea calmly.
Something came to him all of a sudden that he coughed on his drink. After patting his chest a few times, he set his cup on the table with wide eyes, "Oh, I know!! The calling of friendship has granted me the nickname that you shall bear! 'Silly Milly'~!" Duo had raised his arm in such a dramatic manner, it's as if he were in a school play.
After he snapped out of his imaginary sparkle-land trance though, he looked up to Milly in excitement, "Can I call you that? Huh, huh? Silly Milly, it's cuuuute!"

Milly looked at him with an annoyed glare as he spoke while eating his fries. She considered it rude to talk with your mouth full and had often reprimanded many of the soldiers back at home who did so. "It's rude to speak with your mouth full, baka." She said, using the same word for idiot she used on the young recruits who messed up or did the same thing he was doing, although their mistakes would usually be accompanied with a chop to the head as well.
Milly's eyebrow twitched in annoyance when he called her 'Silly Milly'. She wanted to smack him right then and there for that but she waited a bit longer to see if he would say something more stupid or check himself.
When he went for his cup, Milly let out a breath of air and tried to start calming down her annoyance and reached for her fries to continue them. She was caught by him coughing on his drink. She looked up at him, making sure she didn't need to do anything to keep him from choking to death. When he spoke again though, her eyebrow twitched at him giving her a nickname.
The hand she was about to use to reach the french fries clenched then released then swung out to slap him back handed across the face. "You absolutely canNOT call me that!!! BAKA!!" She shouted angrily. If they weren't in a booth, she would have stood up with that. She clenched her fist again and pulled it back towards herself and started going through her purse to pay her check so that she could escape this idiot.

Duo's first reaction after that slap is a blink of his eyes. He can't believe what just happened, but then Milly yelled at him, which pulled him out of his trance-like state. He stayed there on his seat for a moment longer, his eyes held so much shock, it almost seems like he was shot with a stun gun.
Slowly, his hand raised up to touch the gnawing pain he feels on his cheek, wondering if that really did happened. He glanced at Milly in front of him, noted how pissed she is, and winced. "...Am I really that annoying?" Duo asked, for once his voice doesn't have that melodic cheerful tune anymore.
His hand's still cupping the cheek that Milly slapped. "You know by now that I'm not exactly normal, so why did you expect otherwise?" Duo almost looked like he's challenging her glare now with his own glower, "I feel like you're standardizing me.. Look. I can't tell you're angry unless you tell me, I can't tell you dislike me unless you tell me. I am NOT like other people, I'm STUPIDER than them, I can't see these things! So tell me in my face right now, WHAT is your problem?!"
Duo's surprising anger sparked it. His metallic blue eyes flashed crimson red for a while.
'Oh no..'
'Oh hell yes~'[/i][/color]
Duo's upper body suddenly jerked forward and down, as if he's about to vomit something out. One hand clutched tightly at his head, the other at the side of the table. He seemed like he's in serious pain by the veins appearing out at the back of his hand.
'You know you can never have any friends for real, idiot boy..'
'SHUT UP!'
'I'm right, aren't I..? Heh.'
The struggling stopped from the lad. Right now his braided hair seemed a bit wild with a tint of gold. Even his sitting posture changed; an arm slung on his backrest while hanging loosely there, the other has the elbow propped on the table supporting the weight of his chin, and he has his head down.
"..Greetings," the lad's voice sounded way different now, more deeper and raspy, and as he said that, he raised his head to meet Milly's eyes, his eyes shone red at the view. "Beautiful choice, Duo.." he whispered to himself, and then grinned.
He has such malice in his eyes and a dreadful grin to boot. In short, he doesn't look even a bit like the boy from 5 minutes ago. "I'm Solo, and I'm here to take your life."[/color]

Milly paused in her search within her purse when he spoke and looked at him with that angry look still on her face in time to see the pitiful look on his. Although she remained looking annoyed, his pitiful look made her angry look soften just a little. His next question felt like it hit her where she didn't want it to. She didn't want to admit it immediately but she knew his point was accurate.
Milly continued to listen to Duo's speech, a bit surprised that he even admitted to his own stupidity, as her anger subsided slowly. When he asked her what his problem was, she glared again at being asked to answer something she felt obvious. She was about to respond but stopped when she noticed the colour of his eyes flicker.
A surprised look came over Milly's face as she watched him keel over at the table. "Are... you okay?" She asked quietly as he seemed to be in pain. She winced at this scene, not knowing what to do and feeling bad, wondering if he had some mental problems possibly that she just sparked that affect his body. Usually she only saw it in the occasional soldier that suffered major trauma during battle.
Milly continued to watch Duo, worried for his sake and wondering what in the world was happening to him. She noticed his hair turning a different colour and her eyebrows clenched inward in confusion. She watched him as he became a completely different person right in front of her. She watched his movements as he sat up in a very different manner than before and watched as those eyes that were not his looked upon her.
She heard his voice that sounded very different to the cheery voice from before and even very different from the sad and angry one she had heard from him. Her expression fell and her eyes opened a bit more as she looked at the man who now sad in front of her. This man had an evil look in his blood red eyes. One that nearly sent a chill down her spine, but she looked on still.
When he introduced himself, a small glare formed on her face. Her tilted her head slightly and crossed her arms. "Really now?" She asked in an almost challenging manner. "Let's see... Solo. Is that because you're so lonely all the time? Or is it because you wish to be alone always?" A slight grin formed on her lips to match her glare and she leaned forward slightly. "I'd like to see you try to take my life." She said in a sort of challenging manner as she sat back against the booth again, one hand sneaking into her purse behind the table and wrapping her hand around her small hand gun just in case."What's your aim in this world?"

Solo turned his head sideways, spotting a cup of tea with half of its contents near his elbow, and released his chin so he could take the cup and sip the tea, all the while listening to this girl in front of him.
He's not really in the mood for a verbal war at the time, so he just shrugged her attacks like swatting a fly. "So, what do people call you, again?" He asked in between his sips, "In my country, it's rude to kill people without knowing their names. I told you my name, so what's yours? ...For manner's sake."
He even did a little nod with his head to replace a sort of bow to her. Tilting his cup of tea till only the teabag is left in the cup, Solo placed the cup down on its plate, then raised the teabag using the little string it's attached to. He swings it back and forth like a pendulum, a sadistic grin crooked up his lips.
"I don't like to make smalltalk, sweetheart, I'm not in the mood. I'm just here to kill, or be killed. I'm not hurt either way~" He stops swinging the teabag and his eyes cornered dangerously towards Milly, "The stupid boy got you angry? Is that why your face is so red? Well good, use it against me, then."
As the teabag swings towards Milly, Solo lets it go, and the moment when it flew towards her, he's already gone. After the teabag hits her or the area around her in case she dodged, the braided lad appeared behind her chair with a smile. "Your name, sweetheart?" With a pocket knife at her neck.
