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!))

We were going to meet you guys anyways...so I guess this is kind of convenient.

[ ...lmfao, please shinoa..... ]

[familitiarize]

It's just me... but rest assured, everything's fine where we left off.

[p...robably? probably.]

[sintimental]

Did the others stay back? They let you go alone?

[ .... he actually doesn't even remembered what happened beyond being an idiot and then waking up with Mika struggling with his life. ]

[familitiarize]

[responding a bit too quickly, clearly this is something we can put on hold for a MUCH better time]

Anyway, have you found a job yet? Let me guess: you're working at the garrison because you want a loud whistle and shiny key.

[sintimental]

[ sjdgfhjsdf. BUT. Fine. Fine fine fine. ]

That's where Mika and I were headed, actually. To find jobs.

[familitiarize]

[you know this smile]

I know exactly where the three of us should work together...!

1 / 2

[sintimental]

[ i do know that smile. ]

[sintimental]

[ paaaaaaaaaaaaausing. hmmm. okay, he'll bite. ]

... where?

[familitiarize]

The bakery. Imagine this: I'm baking very cute cupcakes that draw everyone in, as though my cuteness wasn't already enough. Meanwhile, Mikaela, your dear friend, can stand around and look pretty as he hands out samples.

[pause]

And you can be the one cleaning the tables.

How about that?

[sintimental]

[ giving her this look. much like mika. asking silently if she is serious. ]

[familitiarize]

[i'm going to interpret that to my liking]

Sounds like you have no complaints. I'll confirm this setup with the bakery before the sun goes down.

[sintimental]

[ am i getting suckered into bakery work? is that what is happening here? why am i not arguing this out? am i just too In Shock? ]

[familitiarize]

[because i win yuuichiro i always win]

I'll make sure to save you the frilliest apron.

[sintimental]

[ YOU'RE THE WORST. ]

No apron, and Mika has to agree.

[familitiarize]

[working on it]

Deal.

[sintimental]

[ Yeah good luck with Mika. ]

Why a bakery? Shouldn't we go somewhere we're more useful?

[familitiarize]

The garrison would have been no more useful than a bakery. Besides, each place of business contributes in its own way.

[sintimental]

[ Shinoa how hard are you bullshitting this to get me and Mika in this bakery. ]

I don't know how to bake and Mika can't eat it in the first place.

[ so HA. ]

[familitiarize]

Like I said, you'll be cleaning. And since Mikaela can't eat, he won't be tempted by any of the desserts he'll be handling.

[sintimental]

You're really serious about this, aren't you?

[familitiarize]

Is that a problem?

[sintimental]

What are we even accomplishing with this?

[familitiarize]

You're so fixated on not working at the bakery that you're making me seem like I'm fixated on working at the bakery.

[IT'S JUST A BAKERY YUU SHEESH]

[sintimental]

[ YOU MAY BE RIGHT. ]

.... it'll be like a weird training exercise.

[familitiarize]

There, that's how you should be looking at it.

[also i'm telling mika of my grand plan involving you as the cleaner and him as the pretty sampler]
