STRINGS GAME SCRAMBLE

[idolpro]

Who: All the kittens tangled in strings
Where: Imeeji
When: Day 512, late afternoon

[As everyone is finally starting to get their bearings with the strings and what they mean, and maybe learning a little about what they do, the kiosk and their phones will sound with a new alert.]

Thank you to all of our fans for participating in Imeeji's
🎉 4th Season Shipping Contest 🎉
All nominated ships and ship dynamics are now being processed. With the help of your idols we will be determining the winning ships.

---

[The game rules app on each person's phone reads:]

- Idols have been assigned relationship dynamics determined by their fans.
- Idols are encouraged to explore and display the dynamics of these relationships.
- Idols may also attempt to subvert the relationship to drive engagement.
- Winners will be determined by viewing numbers and fan engagement.
- Winners will have the option to switch relationships back to their original settings.
- The rest will be left on the setting they are on at the conclusion of the game, please develop your relationship as you like organically from there.

[With a twang, those who are participating in the game will find that their strings have been scrambled. It may not be all of them, but most of the familiar ones suddenly have new colors, and there may even be entirely new strings to complete strangers--not every ship makes sense! Time to work out these new relationships and show people what that's all about to have a shot at fixing it.]

[sangreine]

Ah.

[ Not so confusing for her. She eyes his end of the string with a smile, then steps closer and holds out her hand. ]

Take me on a date, won't you? [ This is only a question in the loosest sense of the word. ]

[numberedays]

[Taking her hand gently.]

Where would you like to go?

[sangreine]

[ Giving him a little tug, closer you ♥ ]

Feel like going to the hot springs? [ Look if she's gonna tease she's gonna do it right ]

[numberedays]

[Obediently moving closer.]

It's quite a trip, but I don't mind it with you.

[sangreine]

Wonderful. [ Now that he's close enough, she pretty much wraps herself around him, in a position more apt for kissing than talking. ] Would you prefer the train, or my bike?

[numberedays]

Oh? Did you learn how to drive?

[There is still like, a tiny bit of self-preservation, maybe.]

[sangreine]

[ hey fuck off she hasn't killed anyone not on purpose yet! ...Okay fair critique for real ]

Someone left it to me, but I knew how to drive it when I first tried.

[numberedays]

Alright. I can always pilot it with my ability if needed, too.

[sangreine]

That's a much better idea! Let's do that one. [ Driving is fun but there's nothing like riding on the back of that bike in her humble opinion. ]

[numberedays]

Alright. Where can we find the bike?

[sangreine]

In the garage, where else? C'mon. [ Gently tugging on his hand ] Let's see how well you can drive with me wrapped around you.

[numberedays]

I do need to be able to concentrate...

[...Oh well. It'll probably be fine. Time to follow her to the garage!]

[sangreine]

No distracting you on purpose until we get where we're going, I promise. I'll make up for it when we get to the hot springs.

[numberedays]

Good. I'm not sure I could handle it.

[sangreine]

I'm pleased if I distract you that much, but I'll be good. [ Until the precise moment the bike is in park. ]

[ Into the garage they go, where she hands him the keys and hops on the back of what used to be Nemesis's bike. She's wearing a skirt as always so it's mildly scandalous even though she's obviously not trying to make it a thing. ] You're up.

[numberedays]

[He climbs on a bit more delicately, carefully seating himself and inserting the key to start up the ignition. But once he's sure they're both settled (wings folded tight, naturally, so she doesn't get a face full of feathers), the bike begins to move on its own in a smooth glide towards the onsen.]

[sangreine]

[ She wouldn't mind some feathers, she's used to Venti after all. In any case, she hold onto him only as much as necessary since she's being good, and she has exceptional balance anyway. At least she shuts up a while and lets him drive, shutting her eyes and enjoying the ride -- she loves this bike, and she likes riding behind someone more than driving herself. ]

[numberedays]

[It ends up being a long, peaceful drive - the motorcycle coming to a smooth stop at the entrance without him seemingly doing anything.]

Here we are.

[sangreine]

So we are.

[ She gives him a squeeze and a kiss on the neck. ]

Nice driving.

[numberedays]

My abilities make it much easier.

[Though he'll stay still for that nice affection.]

[sangreine]

[ She's not done with affection by a longshot, but there's time. So she releases him and waits for him to get off the bike so she can tug him inside. ]

C'mon, I haven't been here yet. I'll bet it's really nice!

[numberedays]

[Allowing himself to be tugged along!]

I'd be surprised if it wasn't, considering what it is.

[sangreine]

Exactly. [ In they go! ]

I picked the place, so you should pick what we do first.

[numberedays]

Taking a bath seems like the most obvious choice.

[sangreine]

It does, doesn't it? I'll meet you at the largest one?

[ She stretches up to kiss his cheek and then goes off into the locker room, barely waiting for an answer. ]

[ Wrapped in a fluffy towel and with a yukata draped over one arm, she makes her way to the designated place quickly enough. Shame to food vendors here are closed. ]
