Haneda Ichiba Ginza 7; Tokyo, Japan; Tuesday Evening [02/23].

So, the place that Summer had settled on for the double date tonight was a bit more than a stone's throw away from where they were staying, but, you know what? That was fine. It was a major city, getting around it would be easy enough and that meant that not only were they going to have an experience a little different and unique from everyone sticking near the hotel, but they'd also get to see more of the city itself, and that was not necessarily a bad thing.

Also, getting reservations at some of these small but highly acclaimed sushi places was not easy, so the fact that Summer was able to snag one here for that evening was not something she could just pass up.

And while a cozy little sushi place with the full experience of having the chef right there at the counter to make it for you was not at all what she originally had in mind for tonight when she first thought of it, she did feel it would be a little more suited to the group as a whole as something more quiet and personal, and, plus, you know, that authentic experience. She'd have plenty of time for the bigger, brighter, more over-the-top side of Tokyo later.

But for now? Just a nice little dinner date with a super genius, a space wizard, and a pirate, as she settled into one of the chairs at the counter that had been reserved for them and really, really hoped she hadn't been way off base for what Rey and John might enjoy while planning this out.

[[ for the aforementioned super genius, space wizard, and pirate, of course! ]]

"Sorry. Earth saying dating back a bit. The original was when in Rome, do as the Romans do," he explained. "So while in Tokyo, do as the locals do."

"Makes sense," Rey decided. "How do you know so much about this place?"

"I read. A lot," Barry said with a shrug. "And I boned up a lot before coming here so I know where we were going and what to expect. I'm the type of guy who likes doing the homework and research."

Because he's basically a super nerd.

"That's smart of you," Rey told him, which was a thing to say to a super genius. "I'm so used to just ending up places I don't think to do the research."

"Yeah, well I'm paranoid and overprepare," Barry said with a shrug. "I've had my fill of surprise trips. While occasionally fun, I prefer to know what I'm getting into."
thatwaslucky: (okay)

"If it means you can guide someone clueless through things like this, I'm all in favor," Rey smiled.

"Clueless is the last thing I'd ever call you and John," Barry said with a smirk. "This is just a new experience. That's completely different."

"I don't know, most of my experiences are new and I'd definitely use clueless for myself a lot of the time," Rey said. Or at least she felt that way a lot of the time, but she was good at rolling with things.
