"Hey, I am back!", Coco cheerfully announces herself, entering the Pearl Pier, bringing with herself an empty bag, indicative of all the fliers Nikora had given her for the Pearl Pier's grand opening having been hanged up everywhere it was allowed. Now all they needed to do was wait for their technological specialists to come over.
"Welcome back, Coco", Nikora smiles, drying her hands off in her apron and taking her chef's hat off from her short fucsia hair. "I just finished preparing dinner for us. How did your patrol go?"
Coco folds the bag and places it on a nearby table. "All good, just the usual. No big name dark general, though", she explains, quite glad nobody seemed to be causing problems today. Not even Yuri had shown up again after the fight from the other day. "So, how are things going on here?" she peers around at the empty place. Madame Taki and Hippo must both be in their rooms.
