Who: Everyone!
When: Day 5, throughout the day
Where: Anywhere in or around Port Perplex
What: A mingle in which it's rainy all day...

[you may or may not have been involved in that labyrinth earlier! you might be a newcomer! regardless, it's an odd day in Port Perplex; you see, it's raining. nothing too heavy, just a constant, steady drizzle. if you drop by the Weapon's n More Shop, you'll be able to buy from a large selection of umbrellas—just watch out for any that might have holes. on the other hand, if you wanna feel creative, the Flower Shop is selling giant leaf/clover/flower umbrellas of different kinds, too—you'll be paying top dollar for those, though.

throughout the day you might come across puddles, which is natural... but these puddles are a strange anomaly—when you walk by them, you'll witness a moment from your past being reflected from this puddle, on show for anyone who might pass by and witness it. it could have been something that happened just this morning, something that happened yesterday, something that happened years ago... it doesn't seem picky.

but thanks to this rain—or maybe the labyrinth—the curious will find many plants sprouting from the now fertile, and no longer cracked, soil of Tier 2. it's hard to say what they'll become, but they're currently small, cute and green!

so... what are you up today? the usual? arriving? avoiding puddles? searching for every one of these little sprouts?]

((THE PUDDLES: if characters stomp/run through them, the scene will stop! ...but the character who ran through it will now experience the feeling that the memory-owner felt in that very depiction—the memory-owner can also run/stomp their own puddle and relive those feelings. if that's not your cup of tea, though, you can play with it however you want!))

[ It's a strange thing to imagine, yes. Different worlds and the sort. But it seemed like everyone here that he didn't already know had a different story. ]

Ah? Maybe your world is similar to this one? Connected?

Ahh, if they're connected, it hasn't been described in any of the books I've read about at all! [ he's getting so excited at the thought of it!! ] That would be really amazing -- it makes me want to know even more about this place than I wanted to know before!

[ Like when was all of this built? And why?! ]

Well, for one....my friend and I here went into some weird door together and ended up in several weird places. Like a maze of sorts? So maybe expect more of those. I haven't really explored the actual area myself...

[ hums in thought, maybe exploring should happen. ]

A labyrinth that leads to a maze, huh... That sounds even better than I thought before! Ahhh, I want to see it soon!

[ Careful, Yuu, he's just getting more excited.... ]

Well, if you want, we could explore together! [ Otherwise, he doesn't really mind doing it alone, but it would be more fun with company. ]

Going exploring together sounds like a great idea, actually.

[ MIKA MIGHT NOT LIKE IT BUT, he will live. ]

More the merrier.

--Thanks a lot for inviting me! It'll be easier with more people, right?

[ though, it's a little dull to think about doing it without his friend... ]

Ah, it's nothing. It's just better to do these things in groups, yeah? At least I think so. We can cover a lot more land together.

[ ...poor sorey. ]

Yeah! That's a good way of looking at it! It's exactly what I was thinking, too.

[ and they'll eventually run into shinoa, so. that means they'll all go together. ]

I honestly didn't know where to start. Mika was so dead set on figuring out job stuff first.

Jobs, huh....

[ He laughs a bit. What is having a job. ]

Did it work out?

...not quite yet. We were looking at the garrison, though.

[ WHAT IS A JOB, SERIOUSLY. I mean, he's in the military at home. He guesses that is his job... ]

Garrison --you guys fought at home?

[ pats the sword at his side. ]

We did. Though...he and I were on opposite sides. It wasn't like we wanted to be.

But, it can be different here, right?

...

I think it can.

[ there is hope yet, of course. ]

You both are aiming for the same thing here, right? You're half way there.

My goal is turn him back into a human, actually. But. Maybe we're out to do the same thing. I'm not really sure. Sometimes I just don't ask what he's thinking...

[ :|a ]

What about asking him?

[ That way, he'll know what he wants, right... ]

Mika and I are pretty close. We'll talk about it when it comes up.

[ He gets it

he thinks. ]

In that case, it definitely will, when the time is right.
