I. - Brief/Son household

[With a current outdoor temperature of 106 degrees, it was no wonder Mai was spending the better part of her early afternoon in her room.  On the cool(er) floor, a small fan sitting on a nearby table blowing directly on her.  Dressed in shorts, a light tank top, and with her hair uncharacteristically pulled up in a loose bun atop her head, she sat cross-legged with a small pile of books around her.]

[All of them about mechanics and engineering.]

[Every so often, she would cross-reference something with another book before jotting down a few notes in a small notebook.  There were some rough sketches of two-wheeled vehicles highlighted in the page corners, but beyond that, it appeared to be mostly mathematical equations and part references.]

[Her door was open, simply because it was better to allow air to circulate, should anybody be walking by and catch a glimpse of her in that state.]


II. - Out & About

[She waited until much later in the day, when temperatures lowered to a more tolerable 101 degrees, before venturing out.]

[Sunscreen and a couple new hats were on her list, but one of the first unexpected purchases of the day came when she saw a small shop promoting umbrellas.  Slightly confused at first, she agreed to try it, and realized the immediate difference when one was under the uv-blocking shade.]

[From there, she happily carried around her umbrella over her head as she made her way through the shopping district, stopping again when she caught sight of a place selling something Italian Ice.]

[Perhaps the only thing she enjoyed more that day than the umbrella.]
