[ Hello, Idols! Are you ready for a game?

Some of you may have played this before! The area is familiar for sure: today's playing field is an expansive balcony with several mini-tables paired with two patio chairs each, garden umbrellas planted to keep the heat away. You can see the rest of the city from up here, too - it turns out you're pretty high up as you can even see the start of the Rainbow Bridge from here, though the railings are high so there's not a high likelihood of accidentally falling down.

There are a few pink lemonade pitchers scattered around with paper cups if you're thirsty, and some bite-sized chocolates if you're hungry. Cute snack food!

The instructions look familiar, too: it's a light game, with no enforced truth-telling even. No status effects! Just dates!

There are cards on the table, too! ]

I know how, but I'm too lazy to actually do it. Buying food is easier.

[iamverybadass]

Understandable.

[ flipping through cards... ]

What would you say is your biggest ambition? ...Aside from murder.

[avestan]

I don't have any ambitions. Wouldn't even say that murder is one.

[iamverybadass]

Then there is...nothing that you want?

[avestan]

There's things that I want to do, but nothing I'd describe with such a grand term as "ambition." If I was offered a wish, I wouldn't have anything to use it for.

[iamverybadass]

What if you had to use it for something? If you had to choose, what would you wish for?

[avestan]

...

I dunno. A nice day out with my girlfriend?

[iamverybadass]

You have a girlfriend?

[avestan]

Sure do. You know Sunrise?

[iamverybadass]

I know she is B's sister, but we don't speak often.

[avestan]

Well, don't judge her just because she's dating me. Bad taste aside, she's a really wonderful person.

[iamverybadass]

B's never spoken poorly about her, so I am sure she must be. I just rarely have cause to meet with her team.

... How did you meet her?

[avestan]

Pretty soon after pep!pep! got here they did a poll about which unit has the best Lives. I got talking about murder, and Sunrise decided she'd get me to find a hobby to do instead.

[iamverybadass]

I don't know what I was expecting...

What hobby did she pick for you?

[avestan]

She never did find one that interested me. But since we were spending time together and talking and lot and stuff like that, it got to the point where we figured out we liked each other.

[iamverybadass]

...No, that still doesn't make any sense. I did not think you liked anyone.

[avestan]

...Just because I hate everyone doesn't mean I can't like them.

[iamverybadass]

How can you hate and like someone at the same time?

[avestan]

I dunno if I can put it in a way that'll make much sense, but... hating everyone is what I am, rather than something I feel as such?

[iamverybadass]

Hate is a feeling. I don't understand how it can be what you are.

[avestan]

...Well, there wouldn't be enough time to explain it in this game even if it was important. And really, it's not.

Just think of me as an evil asshole, that's easier for us both.

[iamverybadass]

I already did, so that won't be difficult.

[avestan]

[thumbs up!]

Glad to hear it.

[iamverybadass]

... Anyway.

[ flipping through cards again ]




What is the most embarrassing time you can remember?

[avestan]

Hmm, probably that last game. I thought I was a princess for a while.
