[ 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! ]

A masochist...

[calmthefoxdown]

Maybe a little.

[ Picking up a card. ]

What would you say is your biggest ambition?

[sunflowering]

Beating up the demons that kidnapped us and breaking out of this place! Definitely!

[calmthefoxdown]

... You're going to beat them up?

[sunflowering]

If that's what it takes!

[calmthefoxdown]

What if what it actually takes is negotiation?

[sunflowering]

Do you think they're that reasonable?

Azzy was pretty spooky when I spoke with him.

[calmthefoxdown]

Deals with the devil are a thing.

[sunflowering]

Nope! Nope, no way. Deals with the devil could only ever go wrong. I'm pretty sure that whatever deal they would have for us, would be tipped in their favor and meant to make us suffer more.

[calmthefoxdown]

Which is probably why if you can negotiate a deal that's in your favor, you'd essentially win... I think.

[sunflowering]

That's a huge risk. . .

I met Azzy, and I-- well, I think he's pretty clever. It would be really difficult to pull a fast one on him.

[calmthefoxdown]

Probably for me, but I feel like there's someone here who would be able to.

[sunflowering]

That would be something, alright.

Who knows, maybe Yasuragi-san is doing his best on the other side, and secretly fighting for us!

[calmthefoxdown]

[ Well Gold is immediately uncomfortable again, cool. ]

... Mmm.

[sunflowering]

[ Oops ]

Him and... was it Loki-san? His husband.

[ She had never really gotten to know Loki. ]

Anyway, should we do another card?

[calmthefoxdown]

[ The most dead eyed stare into space at the thought of those two getting married. ]

Ah... I think time's up.

[sunflowering]

Oh... that went by really quick.

[ She wants to talk to the Avante's more, though... ]

Well... I was glad to talk to you, Gold-san. I hope we can talk more in the future, again.

[calmthefoxdown]

Yeah, I'll catch you later. Hope you enjoy the rest of the game.

[sunflowering]

I'll try. You do the same too, okay?

[calmthefoxdown]

Mm, I'll try.
