[ 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! ]

Aa, well, you'd know best! I guess I didn't picture you as somebody who'd wanna fight, but that's cool if you're into it!

--Thanks for answerin' me! How about it, you wanna ask me somethin'?

[nihilmancy]

Mm, I do look like, how should one say, a complete nerd, no? But I don't mind a little exercise.

[She smiles a little. This went better than she thought?]

Very well. What is something you are passionate about?

[liftoft]

Ha! That's easy! You're talkin' to the Luminary of the Stars, and Ultimate Astronaut! There's nothing I'm more passionate about than space!

[nihilmancy]

Like... what? Everything is space? This room is a space.

[liftoft]

[ that makes him laugh, not mockingly, just--kind of delighted ]

Nah, nah-- I mean, outer space! Stars and planets and all that!

[nihilmancy]

So you fly around in the sky?

[Her world is literally flat!]

[liftoft]

[ brightens ]

Oh! You're from somewhere that doesn't have space exploration, huh? Then yeah! It's sorta like that. Space is the sky, but more--you just keep goin'! And there's all sorts of other planets out there! You know anything about it at all?

[nihilmancy]

What do the stars look like, then? And the planets?

[liftoft]

Hmmm... it's actually a lot easier to show than to explain. I'll take you out to see the stars sometime, how about that!

[nihilmancy]

[There's a small, pained smile.]

With the girl that killed Yugi and Maki?

[liftoft]

You're sorry about it and are workin' hard to make sure it never happens again, right?

[nihilmancy]

Well, yes, but- [She's still caught up in A Mood right now.]

I don't want you to be uncomfortable, around me.

[liftoft]

You can let me worry about that-- I'm definitely not somebody who hides it when he's uncomfortable! If you're pissin' me off or anything, you'll definitely know.

[nihilmancy]

Mm, alright. That is good to know. S-Sorry, this has just, um, been on my mind a lot.
