When: day 80, morning

[good morning, idols! today Mars has set up a little booth with the following sign hanging out front:]

Are you a person in need? Do you want help? Do you ALSO want points? Come here for free (FREE!!!) advice from an advice pro.

Insert question, receive a genuinely helpful response**, free of charge. Win-win-win scenario!!

** Quality of advice may vary, not responsible for any unintended and less than satisfactory consequences that may stem from acting on said advice.

[WELL, ANYWAY]

[Mars sits with his feet propped on the booth smoking a cigarette, watching as people pass by. he's dressed like a Taisho today in outfit number 5 with his henshin belt around his waist]

You can buy medical kits.

If flu shots are really too intimidating, just offer to slap band aids on people instead.

[floriographys]

What a waste of bandaids!!!

Actually, it might be a good idea to do a live anyway since we've now got a whole clinic in our dorm.

[foolmetwice]

I'll let you put a band aid on my nose right now for 150 points.

[just saying]

[floriographys]

I don't have a bandaid!

[Implying he'd do it.

Yeah ok he would.]

On a more serious note, do you have any advice for trying to get sensitIV to have a better reputation?

[foolmetwice]

[he's about to ask if sensitIV has a bad reputation because GUESS WHO DOESN'T PAY ATTENTION TO THOSE THINGS!! but then he remembers the trial. . .]

. . .

Mmmmmaybe don't reopen a bunch of people's scars all at once in public. . .?

[floriographys]

I'm talking with Lucifel and Loki about that, but the problem is that we don't actually have the ability to rewind time!

Also for your information, I was dead at the time.

[foolmetwice]

I'm not saying it was your fault, I'm just saying maybe just don't. . . do that.

In the future.

[floriographys]

Noted. Anything else, maybe?

[foolmetwice]

[crap how does someone who doesn't care about reputations, even bad ones, give advice about fixing bad reputations???]

Be. . . nice? To people?

[floriographys]

Sounds fake.

[Nya laughs a little.]

Anyway, you want those points?

[foolmetwice]

Super fake. But I've got nothing else.

[snorts]

And yes, obviously. I'd never say no.

COUNTER LIVE

[floriographys]

You wouldn't even know how to repair a reputation.

[Nya leans forward and... flicks Mars' nose before pressing the Live button on his phone.]

Oh oh oh~

How unfortunate that you are injured while doing this very important helping live... come here, let me help you out.

[Hey where did this medical kit come from? Don't worry about it. Nya pulls out a bandage, waving it in front of Mars.]

[foolmetwice]

[hey wtf]

[rubs at his nose, features wrinkling, before he leans forward to peer at that bandage]

Thanks, doc. I don't know what I'd do without you. I could've died without your expert medical care.

[he says in the flattest, blandest tone he can manage]

[floriographys]

I know~

[He looks smug about it, as he opens the bandage and then really hams it up as he OH SO CAREFULLY puts the bandaid over the bridge of Mars' nose.]

I'm pretty great, right? And I'm in such high demand.

[foolmetwice]

[and now Mars has a band aid on his nose. THIS IS A VICTORY]

Must be your bedside manner.

[floriographys]

[Nya thinks Mars should have earned it a little more, but he's no one to turn down the points. He's got things to buy too!]

I think it's my thighs.

[PUTS A LEG UP ON THE BOOTH.]

[foolmetwice]

[. . .]

[stares at that leg, and shrugs]

They're so-so.

[floriographys]

If you felt anything about anything, that might be insulting.

[foolmetwice]

You're starting to figure out how I work.

[said with amusement]

[floriographys]

Hahah! I don't think you're as enigmatic as you like to think you are~

[He'll just take his leg back now thank you.]

[foolmetwice]

I never claimed to be enigmatic.

[floriographys]

You don't have to say it for it to be true~

[BLOWS MARS A KISS ANYWAY.]

[foolmetwice]

[mimes catching it and flinging it back to Nya]

Are you saying that you're mysterious?

[floriographys]

Not at all! Though people seem to be confused by me a lot. I always thought I was pretty obvious about my thoughts and intentions.

[foolmetwice]

[blinks a little??]

. . . yeah? You're like one of the most straightforward people I know.
