[idolpro]

Who: Emet-Selch, Five & Klaus Hargreeves, BARiTONES, Taisho Roman Revolution, certain criminals
Where: Mitsukoshi Ginza
When: Day 512, afternoon

[ BARiTONES and Taisho Roman Revolution will find themselves receiving invitations via cell phone to visit the Mitsukoshi Ginza for a ~*~*special graduation*~*~! Once more the terrace of the 9th floor has been redecorated for the special lads, and the theme is red.

Red carpet, red ribbons, red tablecloth, red cushioned lounge chairs, red confetti, red flower hedges, red, red, red. Heck, there's even a fancy fountain river that runs through the whole terrace before pooling at a humble sized square pond and that's red, t—

Wait.

. . . Oh. That's. Blood.

That's blood.

. . .

T-the wine is red too, and there's plenty of it. The available mugs for fancy drip coffee are red. Red velvet cake. Red meat, cooked anddddd nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnoooooooooot hhhhhhhhey some of these tables and chairs seem to be made of things that are red but not things that are wood or metal or normal table material. Hey. Heyyyyy. . . ?

W . . . who is this graduation for!? Who wanted this. Like it is a Hell graduation but also!? Also!?!!? Isn't this a little too Hell-like already!?!?!

Well. Well!!!! At least there are normal sections of terrace to hang out in. They're even elegant. Fancy drip coffee and wine, again, but also fancy donuts and other breakfast options too. Fancy!!

. . .

Also . . . ? There are coin-operated horse rides, except some of them aren't horses, some of them are birds. Red birds! Phoenixes? Honestly they look kind of shitty and the music that plays from them sound horribly dissonant but on the other hand they seem to work perfectly fine without coins. So there's your entertainment!!!

At the far end of the terrace is the usual carpet to graduation doors, along with a clearing where three microphones stand for anyone who would like to make a speech or do a monologue or a performance or something. The blood fountain river crosses through here so be. Be careful. ]

I look forward to not only hearing about it, but getting a chance to see it. As soon as you're out of here I hope you'll kidnap me for a visit. A brief one, because, as you know, I can't abandon Xiansheng and Pitchka.

I wouldn't mind knowing. Would you be able to show me what it looks like without killing me?

[firstworldproblem]

[He was about to reply.]

Pitchka?

[childeishly]

Ah, my... name for Tsukiakari. I didn't want to keep calling him by his other names, and I wanted to have something special to call him, so... Pitchka. It means little bird.

[firstworldproblem]

Does he hate it? No. He would secretly love it, wouldn't he?

[childeishly]

No, actually. He really likes it. And he's made it no secret, at least to me. I just want what's best for him, and that's to... move on. [ so if that means giving up the name scaramouche or kunikuzushi, then... sure. childe will do whatever for him. ]

[firstworldproblem]

He does need to be drop kicked out of his current headspace, yes.

And who better to do that than you, the terror or recklessness. And I say this as fondly as possible.

[childeishly]

[ he smiles, proud of both of those titles. ] Of course. And I'm happy to do it, honestly. But he has grown a lot since the beginning and that's something to be proud of him for. I do have you and the rest of BARiTONES to thank for that.

[firstworldproblem]

I would hope so. I did put a lot of love and work into BARiTONES and I am proud of what they have become. Even our more late bloomers.
