WHAT IN PERSON
WHERE the street!
WHEN day 17, AT NIGHT

[ hey everyone -- since it was HOT and then RAINED now we have steamy night time streets, oh boy. While the humidity is awful, and the heat is back at least there is a NIGHT MARKET which is kind of cool. It has little knick knacks and prizes you can win -- goldfish, stuffed animals, so forth and so on -- as well as food, chicken on a stick, shaved ice, so forth and so on.

Have fun! Wander around! Hang out with people and win prizes!

Or, check out the FREE fortune telling machine. All you have to do is stand in front of it. . . and it will announce, rather loudly, some secret of yours. Or many secrets. Depending on how fast you get out of its line of sight.

. . . if you try to harm, destroy or mute the machine in any way you will be grabbed by security and forcibly put in time out for a little while and get a slap on the wrists. Destruction of private property is frowned upon. ]

It wasn't supposed to be a secret. I guess we just didn't think to tell anyone but Kudelia.

Hopefully one of you would've thought to mention it eventually.

[Smacks Mika gently on the back]

Come on, if you're a father now, I owe you a drink.

We didn't know if it had worked yet.

[when, you know, everything went crashing down around them.

moves to clamber back into barbatos tho]

[Going to just hang onto Barbatos' side because it's easier than trying to keep pace with a ten foot tall mech]

I'm glad we got to find out, then. She'll be a great mother.

[mika is just... heading mall-ways for now, trusting orga to correct his course as needed]

Mmhm. And Kudelia promised to protect them. She'll be good too.

[that's fine there's a bar there]

Mmm. Your kid will have a good life.

[i WISH. I'D GET TO SEE IT, B U T...]

Atra really just asked...?

I think... she wanted to be able to keep some part of me.

[so basically yes but also feelings are very feelings]

Those two will raise that kid well.

[Yeah that. Hurts. But in a weird way.]

It was a good idea. Now they can all keep a piece of you.

Yeah.

[a little quieter.]

[my smol.

Orga will be quiet until we get to the mall.

At which point he hops down so he can help Mika out.]

I was talking to X the other day, about our camp. She wasn't very impressed.

[clambers out of barbatos and checks out the bar dubiously. this might be hard.]

It's not much to be impressed by yet. We only just started.

[Hmmm good point]

--I could probably go get the drinks and bring them out.

That might be the best plan.

Get comfy. I'll be back in a minute.

[pauses and, then, realizes it's not like he's gone drinking with Mika recently. Mostly he goes with business guys]

You want anything in particular?
