[ 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! ]

Yes. I want a good mushroom risotto myself. What about you?

[we_meet_again]

Filet mignon or something else I have no chance at being able to cook on my own, basically.

Taste-testing aside, what would your ideal game be like?

[iamverybadass]

Easy. A game to see who can pick the lock of the door of Hell first so we can all escape.

I'd ask what yours is, but I assume you'll simply agree with me. Instead I'll ask what the first thing you want to do when you get out of here is.

Ah...





...I don't know!

I... don't think I have a home worth going back to.



Maybe... I could... find a new home...?

[we_meet_again]

[;;;;;;;;]

H-how about you?

[iamverybadass]

Ah... I— I am sorry for asking a difficult question...

I would... That is, I know my father is at home, so I would... I have to return. I would find him first.

[we_meet_again]

Nah, don't worry! It's not sensitive information or anything, I'm just still trying to figure out what to do with myself. I don't want to stay here, but I don't know where else to go.

[we_meet_again]

But your dad is waiting for you at home? That's wonderful! Tell me about him?

[iamverybadass]

If you say so...

I only have one memory of my father so far, but I know he must be a patient man. I believe I lived with my mother for a long time, and she was...very different from him. So I was raised that way, and I know that it was taking a great deal of effort to...adjust while I was living with him. He spoke of how proud he was of the progress I made.

[his eyes are sparkling to hear all of this ✨]

I imagine it must have been difficult, if your living situation changed that much. But you seem like someone who always does his best and never gives up. I think anyone would be proud to call you their son.

I'm really glad you have such a great memory of your dad. I hope you get to see him again really soon -- maybe in a memory, but even better if it's in person.

[iamverybadass]

[ Oh. He ducks his head with a little smile at that. ]

Thank you. I hope that I can see him again too. It would be nice to see how I met him next.
