[ 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! ]

Sure. Let's see what they've got this time around.

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Snags one!]

...rude.

[Takes another.]

Do you know how to cook? Do you enjoy it?

[calmthefoxdown]

I can cook following a recipe, but I have no idea how to best alter a recipe if it doesn't taste right. I prefer baking more since it's straight forward.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Yeah? Baking kinda seems harder.

[calmthefoxdown]

I find it pretty straight forward.

[crossmyheartandhope]

You do the fancy stuff?

[calmthefoxdown]

Not yet. Haven't thought of anything fancy to try making.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Could give it a shot. I bet there's cookbooks or whatever at the library.

[calmthefoxdown]

But which recipe should I try?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Set the book face-up and turn a fan on it super high, and let it flip the pages, then go with whatever recipe's showing.

[calmthefoxdown]

Wouldn't it end up on whatever's first or last in the book?

[crossmyheartandhope]

Turn the fan off halfway.

[calmthefoxdown]

Fair.

I'll give it a try and you can have first dibs on whatever it lands on as inspiration payment.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Whoa, for real?

[calmthefoxdown]

Yeah, I need someone to eat the food, whether good or bad.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Sign me up, dude, that the kinda job I don't mind.

[calmthefoxdown]

Consider yourself registered then.

[crossmyheartandhope]

[Sketches a sloppy salute.]

Can do. I totally owe you one.

[calmthefoxdown]

Don't worry about it. You're my unwitting victim.

Though I don't think my baking's that bad.

[crossmyheartandhope]

He says, after using the word victim.

[calmthefoxdown]

I'm preparing for the worst case scenario.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Should I go hardcore prepper, here? Think I need a bunker?

[calmthefoxdown]

More like stomach medicine.

[crossmyheartandhope]

Jeez, we really are talking worst case scenario.

[calmthefoxdown]

I warn because I care.

And also Nemesis might kill me if I didn't.
