GENERAL (WINDY) MINGLE

[idolpro]

Who: YOU
Where: EVERYWHERE, WITH A FUN THING FOR OUTSIDE
When: DAY 404

[A GENERAL MINGLE FOR ALL UR NEEDS.

But! Also for anyone who needs extra flavor, if you happen to step outside today, you'll find it to be brisk and cool with a slight breeze passing through. "Slight". By slight, I mean, there will be occasional strong bursts of wind that can knock off a hat or blow off a yhair accessory or a piece of paper gets stuck on your face. Maybe it's strong enough to blow around smaller people here and there.

Nothing too dangerous, but you might have to help someone chase their stuff back.]

[ Freshly renamed, and honestly he feels like Eichi and Tenn had mercy on him (he left himself wide open) (and maybe they think they made up for it with the makeover, but he's honestly fine), Lupine made tracks from the hotel fast as soon as he realized what the lobby live was doing to people, but he's trying to be casual about it, okay?

Just. Felt like checking out more of the city today...! That's definitely it. And you can find him checking out one of the conbini with some amazement (all the prepackaged food, what), the arcade with flat disbelief (...is... that a UFO catcher of him... they work fast here), and finally the love hotel, which is where he wound up after he got on the train to check it out, and he is just... the most amused by it.

Outfit #3, which he probably would've held off on a little longer if not for the makeover. ​(The weirdest thing is definitely remembering not to touch his face, thankfully the eyeliner at least is waterproof and going nowhere, but he has definitely already gotten some smoky eye on the back of one of his hands and he will not be doing lipstick again, this shit is the worst.) ]

(ooc: lmk if smalls are a problem for you and I will drop them for our thread, no questions asked! ♥)

[ after some difficulty, this small (4'10") sheep girl has managed to get herself into the conbini, picking out a few things and putting them inside her robot sheep.

she keeps to herself, though he can either chat her up when they're staring at the same food—or, if he's not the sort to initiate conversation for no reason, he can catch her later when she's leaving the conbini, clinging to her sheep, only to . . . slip off . . . and fall . . . from the wind knocking her down . . . ]

[at_heart]

[ He'd totally just strike up a conversation, but honestly that's too cute to resist, SO ] [ Quick reflexes and he's strong, so Lupine will just be catching her shoulders from behind before she can actually hit the ground— ]

Whoa, there. [ More than a little bit amused, you are so small! 5'11" here. ] These winds are really something, huh.

[pyromagiac]

[ tall . . .

startles, though maybe not as surprised as she could be that there was someone behind her? tipping her head back to look up— ]

Oh!

[ with a bright gaze, and, like she didn't hear him: ]

Hi! Thank you—the wind is pretty bad today, huh?

[at_heart]

[ Well, his grin is friendly! With only the slightest hitch at that response, heh. And he will now be setting her gently back on her feet. ]

Hey, that's just what I was thinking.

[ Wink. ]

Lupine, [ and he's starting to get the hang of introducing himself like that, even though it's kinda fancy-sounding, ] nice to meet you. Well, you know. Nice as it can be, given the circumstances.

[crossmyheartandhope]

[At the arcade, checking out the new UFO catcher stock]

Dude, is that you?

[at_heart]

[ He knows! What the heck. ] [ But he turns an amiable if slightly exasperated grin on Hurricane. Already introduced himself to you, so he'll have to correct it, he supposes. ]

I think so. Man, I — know we're supposed to be... performers, or something, but this is my third day here, and I was not expecting merch.

[ He maybe should have been, odds are pretty good that the 'producers' know they're coming before they actually wake up here, but give a guy a break. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

The fans know what they want, I guess. You probly got a fanclub already and everything.

[at_heart]

[ And that definitely pulls a startled bark of laughter out of him, before he muffles it down to his more typical snicker. Hand to his face, and — just barely manages not to smudge the eyeshadow by touching his eyelids. ...at least it's a smoky eye, the occasional accident isn't going to ruin it? But he is not so sure he's on board for this kind of bother, Hurricane. ]

I guess I really shouldn't be complaining. It could be a normal fanclub!

[ But, you see, he has Doubts. And an eerie certainty that any fanclub formed for him specifically is gonna be creepy weirdoes all the way down. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Hey, you never know. Some of em are probly normal, anyways.

[at_heart]

By the numbers, you mean?

[ Sheer statistical probability?? He gets his back up against the claw machine so that he can lean there comfortably before adding, ]

Oh, and, uh. It's Lupine now. [ Cracks a grin. ] That's a flower, apparently.

[ And it might or might not be the purple flower he currently has woven into his hair! Who can say. The styling incorporates an actual braid today, and is generally more artful than he would've managed on his own. ]

[crossmyheartandhope]

Lupine, huh?

That the one you're wearing?

[outofoffice]

Wow, it's you!

[ Pointing at the tiny plush of him inside the UFO machine ]

Could it be I'm in the presence of a celebrity~?

[at_heart]

[ He was staring himself, but that tone gets a snort of laughter. Turning to face — oh hey, you're a little shorter than he was expecting. Blink, then the grin reasserts itself. ]

It could pretty much only be creepier if they keep up to date with what we're wearing on a daily basis.

[ The doll has his night shirt on, though, so in any other situation that would already be maximum creepy. (The flower crown's a cute touch, he'll admit.) ]

[outofoffice]

Don't worry, you'll get fanart for that!

[ Which definitely isn't also extremely creepy. ]

So? Are you going to win yourself? It seems only appropriate.

[at_heart]

Joy.

[ So. Very. Wry. But he chuckles at the question— ]

I don't know. Doesn't strike you as, like, incredibly vain?

[outofoffice]

Yup! ♪

But is that not the point of being on an idol show? You could even start collecting yourself!

[at_heart]

[ snort oh my god ]

Right, like a room full of dolls wouldn't be creepy enough even before you got to the part where they all look like you.

[bondsofsuffering]

[He's in a LiliS outfit himself, although he has sensitIV pink bandages wrapped around one sleeve and decorated with creepy cute enamel pins including one stating "medic."]

...Ah. Decided on makeup for going out?

1/2

[at_heart]

[ Noticing! It gets a slight headtilt, but Klaus did come back to their dorm for help reacquiring some LiliS clothing, so. He knows it happens. He might've made it a topic of conversation, but— ]

[at_heart]

[ —you know, now they're talking about this instead. Congrats on being the first one to ask, but he manages to resist the impulse to drag his hand down the front of his face. Sets it on his hip instead and offers up a lopsided but not self-conscious grin. ]

Oh, it was part of a whole package deal. [ Tiniest pause. ] When Eichi transferred in, I... let him know I wasn't all that set on a name. They came up with Lupine, [ which feels a little fancy to him, but he's resisting the immediate urge to shorten it just yet anyway, ] and, uh.

[ GESTURES. There might've been a montage, he doesn't know. It was definitely kind of a blur. ]

[bondsofsuffering]

Oh- yeah, I ran into Eichi just a little while ago. That was a big surprise, considering how long he's been on BARiTONES.

By "they" do you mean Eichi and Tenn, or...?

[at_heart]

So I hear. [ Heh. Might've also taken some comfort in being told it wasn't all that common, because he's only just starting to feel at all settled in here. ] And, well.

[ He might've specifically offered it up to the unit as a whole. As... a bonding activity. In part because of what Izanagi said to him. But there's definitely a little heat in his face to think about putting that into words, and he'll be looking off to one side now. Clears his throat, shrugs. ]

Emi got a vote, too.

[bondsofsuffering]

Emi?

[at_heart]

Yeah, Shiemi.

[ Hi he's a nicknamer. :|a ]
