"Birdbrain wouldn't know romance if it smacked her with a balloon full of phermones!" Bride says, laughing at and retorting to Seline's statement. Honya looks around to everyone, Alexei looking around, as he was tasked with protecting her while on the lower decks. "If you all do not mind coming with me now that we are all ready to meet with Hanamura-sensei on the upper levels." She says as she walks them to the lift. She approaches the control panel and enters a special code into the panel. Seconds later, the door to the lift shuts and the lift moves upwards, giving a view of each floor as they ascend ever upwards to the Nerve center of the Freeport. The Lift door opens, revealing a lobby. The lobby seems to have been recently renovated, as the scent of fresh paint slightly lingers, mixed with the smell of berries. The front of the lobby reveals a desk with a man and woman manning it, behind them a wall with wooden panels on each side, with a central panel in white with the seal of the Freeport emblazoned on it, with Flags bearing the CoF emblem and the Freeport's seal each to the emblem's side, in front of the wooden panels. Honya heads up to the desk and very briefly speaks to the man at the desk. "These people are here for a meeting with Hanamura-sensei. I'll be taking them there with Alexei-kun." The man nods and hands her a keycard out of a drawer. She takes it and bows to him. "Arigatou gozaimasu." she says, thanking him. "Everyone, on me." She says, calling the group to follow her. Alexei moves first, with Bride behind him, following Honya to the back of the Annex.
