mingle & date

[idolpro]

Who: anyone
Where: date locations?
When: Day 229, lunchtime on

It's turning into a pretty nice day outside! Nice for a walk through the park or the zoo or Tokyo DismaySea. Are you meeting up for some dates? Still making plans with your matches? Helping your friends prep for a super romantic evening?

[ debatable. On all counts. ]

Don't be like that. I don't get how you can wanna live that way, but I still love you. You're the fuckin' best, man.

[ comes over to drape himself against Intensity as he changes apps and starts to scroll ]

So how you feeling? I got some role-play stuff we could do but its pretty soap opera, I dunno, orrrr.... make out with somebody...hurt somebody...hurt somebody while also making out.

[ frowns as he scrolls. Why is the audience like this ]

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Define hurt. Does that require a White Mage or no?

[liftoft]

Nah, dont think so. They don't really specify and I'm okay with lowballin' them on hurting somebody.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Then as long as it's nothing permanent or requires calling for aid. Do you think hurting someone while making out helps you for a longer period of time rather than a binary one or the other?

[liftoft]

Huh.


Actually--


...never mind. Let's assume yes and go for two.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

... What? Just spit it out.

[liftoft]

Well, I was gonna say two things:

First, that I never did enough of 'em to really notice any pattern like that or keep track of what activity gave me what time. And two, that it sounds kinda fun, doing it all scientific like that.

But I dunno, I feel like you're gonna tell me off for trying to make this "fun", 'cause of how I might die if I fuck it up again, and all that.

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

We don't have to go to those extremes. The most obvious sign of not doing enough is the symptoms returning, correct?

[liftoft]

[ huff ]

Yeah. It'll be pretty obvious if I'm slacking.


...ah. actually, it probably won't be. Y'know I managed to hide it from everybody all the way up until the end, even though it hurt so bad I could barely stand? That's apparently how I died the first time too, which I wanna be bummed about, except for how it was closest to a victory I was gonna get.

Just like I said before, right?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Well, know you know how upset people were when you died.

So if you do that to them again on purpose, you're no hero.

wow not the icon i meant at all!!! I guess that's the concealed inner state

[liftoft]

[ ... he smiles at Intensity, in response, with a little less mega-watt radiance than usual. He sounds... fondly, gently exasperated? ]

Oi oi... I already said I'm pissed off about how I died here too! The first time there wasn't anything I could do about it, since we were trapped in that shitty school, but weirdly we got better health care options here in hell. I shoulda used them!

I already let people down once, I'm not gonna do it again.

I know that feeling

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Then if you're sincere about that, we don't have anything to worry about.

So make it fun and do your science, if you think that's the best way to handle this.

I am a science kinda guy after all. But I like playing stuff by ear, too! I'll see how I feel once we get into it.

[ is X even aware of how inconsistent he is? Seems kind of hard to tell, maybe? He says it in the same breezy tone as most of the rest of his words, anyway. ]

[liftoft]

[ and, as he often does, X suddenly amps up his energy, changes his facial expression, his body language--hard physical cues that he's moved on to a new conversational track and the old topic Is Dropped ]

--anyway, wanna hear what I picked? I got what I think is a good idea, but since you're my partner you get the chance to veto it, okay?

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

Sure.

Lay it on me.

[liftoft]

Corset piercings! Check it out:

It's sexy in a way that doesn't actually require a lot of nudity or any sex, it's for sure gonna hurt, but its totally meant to be temporary so it's not gonna leave a lot of lasting damage. I figure it's the kinda stuff a good chunk of our audience would be into.

If there's one thing Kaito Momota knows how to do, it's play to his audience, y'know!

[bluescreenwhitedragon]

[Please hold.

He has to use Hell!Google to figure out what a corset piercing is.

And his eyes widen at the accompanying images.]

And you want this on your back?
