Day 223; ☤ Open | Voice/Action
[Calliope clears her throat. The arcade's first-floor cacophony can be heard in the background, though muffled. Even though she sounds like Caliborn, she's so very much kinder and warmer.]

Sooo... This is "Callie"! Thank you to everyone who donated or traded your chocolate to me while we were at the other place, and to those of you who offered me kind words. I hope everyone is alright, and made it back safely! [Though she hasn't heard from Roxy.]

... on that note, has anyone else noticed bruises and the sort being in different places than they were yesterday? It's rather peculiar...

Um, but, anyway. [She sounds a bit more nervous, now, voice a bit shaky and laugh with an edge of giggle on it.] It's not as though there's currency worry about, but if anyone would like to be repaid in kind and company, I'm on the second floor of the Arcade with some snacks. It's the one with the tables and the card and board games.

Maybe we could also play something together? Oh- and we can also go to one of the other floors, if anyone prefers a different game! This just seemed the most fitting place to start at, with the candy and soda...

[Calliope really wants to spend time with everyone and anyone.]

[This is a bigger deal to her than it may be for most; she's so convinced of her own horrific monsterly-ness that she feels like asking people to spend time with her is imposing. Part of her doesn't even expect anyone to respond or show up, beyond maybe her friends from home. Still, after she learned about Caliborn's little frypan rampage and constant attempts at upsetting people, she feels a need to try and cement herself as the green-eyed cherub who just wants to make friends.]

[That is why, true to her word, Calliope is camping out at one of the game tables. She's wearing a hoodie tugged up to somewhat disguise her appearance, but she's on the lookout for people who appear to be looking for her. There are long moments of keeping busy by shuffling skills and snacking on her small assorted collection of candy, too.]

[And, before she tries to put it off any longer...]

[Private | Filtered to Aradia]

Umm. Hello, dear. Would you like to, ah... [She trails off, realizing there are approximately two dozen ways to end that sentence, and she can't pick one.]

	One of my favorite prison hangouts. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I'm fond of it, too! What floor or area do you like best? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh I'm a video gamer. So... third floor. You? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	All of them! [She does not have very discriminating tastes.] But I grew up mostly with chess. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Chess, I was never good at that one. Strategy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Really? I mean, it is easier when your opponent is... um. [Horrible at it.] But thinking ahead gets easier with practice! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm more of a tetris level of thinking ahead instead of a chess level. Ever tried Pacman? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-06-21 02:05 am UTC (link)
	Umm. Which one is that, again? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	taciturnbeast 2013-06-21 03:41 pm UTC (link)
	Arcade game. Pac-Man goes around eating pellets through a maze. He has to eat as many as he can without running into his enemies. It's a classic... and yet still fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh! I'll try it out later today. Especially if it's an important cultural experience. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	taciturnbeast 2013-06-30 05:25 pm UTC (link)
	Less important and more with the fun. Although I guess fun can be important. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ophiuchus 2013-07-02 05:15 am UTC (link)
	[She giggles at that, good-naturedly and kind.] Fun is extremely important! You can learn a lot about a species based in what they find fun. (Reply to this) (Parent)
