[Neito's on break at the moment, but his Moon Knight uniform can be clearly seen on him. He looks thoughtful.]

Do our birthdays still count here if we're just going to forget everything when we go home?

[Guess who didn't say a word about his birthday happening in May? This guy. Truth be told, he'd been too busy to worry about it, and most of the people he'd want to celebrate with weren't here.]

I was thinking that it might be helpful to new arrivals if we had a regular meet and greet event. Maybe on the day before the Sanguis cycle begins. That seems to be one of the calmer times in the month, based on my observations.

[While there's no guarantee things will always be that way, he has noticed a distinct pattern. Moon cycles cause individual chaos within people's lives, and then a few days after the Triple Moon cycle, there's frequently some sort of disaster.]

I don't mind being the main event coordinator, but it would help if I had help.

I don't know if they count unless you want them to, but it's still fun to celebrate, ne? Did I miss yours?

[Noooooooooo! :c]

I think an orientation would be really helpful! There are a lot of things I found out through word of mouth. ...Like just now, about forgetting everything when we go home. That's kind of sad.

[It's REALLY sad, she doesn't want to forget the friends she made here! Very noooooooo! :c]

Well, if you're okay with celebrating, why don't I make you a cake? I got a lot of experience using the bazaar to sell desserts. We could also go out and do something fun, or I could set up a surprise party if you'd rather celebrate with lots of people!

[Although it's not very surprising if she has to ask him for a guest list to create said surprise party.]

Yeah, a lot of people who show up here haven't even used machines before, so it'd be nice to show them what they can do, and take them on a tour of the city so they know where all the good food is.
leekspins: (Thankful)

[personal profile] leekspins 2020-06-11 10:34 pm (UTC)(link)
[She smiles. At least he succeeded at being charming, since even if they do forget each other, at least they're enjoying the time they have right now.]

I'd be happy to volunteer. Anou...maybe I'll let other people pick their specialties first, then fill in wherever there's an obvious need.

What's your favorite kind of cake?
leekspins: (Blank Stare)

[personal profile] leekspins 2020-06-11 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, well...I'm not all that experienced with moonlacing and really advanced technology. I can handle the basics, but I wouldn't be able to explain how it works in detail.

[And she is familiar with exactly zero of those things.]

...What are those?

[And she is curious about all of them, which means she might very well make all of them just so she can try everything.]
leekspins: (Clap! :D)

[personal profile] leekspins 2020-06-14 04:35 am (UTC)(link)
Wow...all of those sound really good.

[She's trying to imagine how they'll taste, but it sounds like there are a lot of interesting textures at play too. She has to try these!]

Do you know how to make them? If not, I'll see if I can find a recipe online. And if THAT fails, I think we can cobble something together that's similar!
leekspins: (Leekspinning)

[personal profile] leekspins 2020-06-16 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
Ha ha! That's such a nice memory.

[It seems like he's really close to his family, and loves them a lot. That kind of relationship is really sweet.]

Let's do our best, then. Put together a grocery list, then we can meet up, buy all the ingredients we need, and bake them together! I promise I'll make it fun.
leekspins: (Photograph)

[personal profile] leekspins 2020-06-23 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
Sure, we could do that!

[She's quiet for a moment, studying his face with a little smile.]

...You're really impressive, Monoma-san. I love how you can ask for hugs and dates so naturally. It takes a lot of confidence!
leekspins: (Determined)

[personal profile] leekspins 2020-06-26 07:18 am (UTC)(link)
That's true! I'm trying to be bolder too!

[Next time she'll ask HIM out! ...Which won't really change anything in the long run, but he might like to know that she enjoys his company too.]

Did you date a lot back home?
leekspins: (Pensive)

[personal profile] leekspins 2020-06-30 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
[Confidence...? Is that why she's not doing so well at moving beyond friendship to romance? She looks thoughtful (when she should probably be thanking him), knuckling her chin. Sanguis does help with that, she finds herself second guessing her words and actions a lot less when a red moon is around. So if she asked someone out during Sanguis, would she have better luck? Or would she just want to punch her dates? ...ah ha ha ha...! Hopefully not!]

[She's a little surprised he didn't date much in high school, given his personality, but she didn't date at all so!]


Are you going to go to school here too, or just keep dating?
leekspins: (Oopth)

[personal profile] leekspins 2020-07-03 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I'm not going to learn.

[She grins sheepishly.]

It's just fun, being able to spend a lot of time with the Prismals. And they have lots of fun school activities we didn't have, like a school dance, and things like that! You're right, though, being a Moon Knight is probably better training for a hero. I'm glad you're enjoying it!

I'd say that your birthday should still count even if it's here. Even if we don't remember and get sent back right where we were taken from when we go home, that doesn't change you being older here. [And with how long people can be stuck here, well...

Either way, she's going to shift to focus on the other topic now. ]


That might be a good idea, but the problem is makings sure that everyone who is a new arrival knows about it to show up. From what I can tell, we usually get a lot of people at once, don't we? [ Not as many as when she first showed up, but still a sizable number of people.]

[personal profile] bubbleblaster 2020-06-17 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Well then, Happy Birthday.

[ She's not sure if it's the actual day or not, but she figures it has to be close enough for her saying that to be appropriate.]

That would help a little, though I'm not sure how many people would actually be paying attention to posters on the walls when they first arrive. [ She knows that she didn't, at least.]

I was thinking that maybe a post on the network could work, but... that still has the same problem. Plenty of people don't pay attention to what's posted.
bubbleblaster: (20)

[personal profile] bubbleblaster 2020-06-27 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
[ She thinks about it for a moment or two, before shaking her head.]

That'll probably work a little better, but it's likely still easy to miss in all of the confusion. Maybe if it were a sign with blinking lights or something on it instead of just a poster?
bubbleblaster: (56)

[personal profile] bubbleblaster 2020-07-02 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
d[Oh, that was something she didn't think of.]

I guess that'd be the best solution then. I didn't really think about the issues that blinking lights could cause. Maybe they'll be willing to mention it when talking to new arrivals if they'll help make it visible. [ At least she hopes that'd be the case. ]

Like you're one to talk, Mr. Dramatic!!! It ain't your birthday anymore, so nothing's stopping me from killing you!

you mean for just the new arrivals to get to know each other/ or would you want some regulars there too/
terribletwos: (i could do seven days)

[personal profile] terribletwos 2020-06-21 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
i think it's a good idea. especially when it comes to understanding the whole chroma thing. i'd like to help with that.
terribletwos: (suddenly obligated)

[personal profile] terribletwos 2020-06-23 03:15 am (UTC)(link)
and some people might not be used to the moonlacing people do here. it would be nice if there were others who could help them figure all that out.
terribletwos: (half a life)

[ Just like Xion... ]

you can copy powers/ how/
terribletwos: (guess whatever life I had is over)

[personal profile] terribletwos 2020-06-30 02:21 am (UTC)(link)
i only know of one person who can do that. and that's because she's special.

[ Read: Created via science and experimentation. ]

i think she needs to spend more time around a person to be able to copy them though.
terribletwos: (while i keep on dreaming for me)

[personal profile] terribletwos 2020-07-05 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
no. she went back a while ago.

but i'm sure she would have wanted to meet you too.

Birthdays always count, at least as a day to celebrate yourself and another year 'round the sun. Even if we don't get to keep the experiences, that doesn't mean we shouldn't have them!

[someone is very passionate about birthdays, it seems. that same someone? also passionate about helping others and planning events.]

You know, that's a great idea. I definitely think we should have some sort of buddy system to help others get used to what's happening here. There's a lot of information that gets thrown at us on day one, but when someone broke it down for me in a less formalised way, it all made sense! Or, as much sense as it can make. Count me in to help you however I can!
