DAY 231 ☆ VIDEO --> MINGLE
VIDEO
[It's the afternoon and there are many people visiting! Hikaru absolutely couldn't pass up this opportunity for a celebration!]

Attention, attention, ladies and gentlemen! This is very last minute, but I know you won't be able to say no to an opportunity like this! [He winks!]

Let's gather around, bring your friends and have a party at around 2:00pm in Sector 4, starting at Chill! Who doesn't love ice cream on a nice day like this? I'll bring the music and the energy if you promise to stop by!

And when you get sick of ice cream and desserts, there are other great places nearby, perfect for the nightlife such as Merlotte's, Devil's Compass, among others! Help your friends have a fun day, and show them that being in prison isn't so bad!

[Hey, isn't he such a great advertiser for these businesses and Marina Nova, huh?!]

I better see you there!

-----------------

MINGLE
[Chill, the ice cream parlor in Sector 4, will have colorful table cloths on their tables, and a radio playing some music that will help people get in the party mood! Ice cream, desserts, dancing and socializing, what could be more fun?]

[ooc: Let's treat this like a mingle! Just drop a comment with your character hanging out and tag around! You can specify whether they're at the ice cream parlor, or if you want to start something taking place after the party, that's fine too! Anything goes! Link to respond specifically to Hikaru's video in case anyone is interested in that Right Here!]

[ Bak is stabbing a spork into his two scoops of ice cream and looking for all the world like he'd like to murder it. Except he doesn't. He's just miffed Komui didn't have the good grace to come back and apologize for leaving! So when Toul stops by his table to say hello, he just stares up at her and blinks. ]

... Are you real?

[ sorry, sorry. But those ears are a little difficult to miss. ]

	[Toul is going to be very confused by that reaction. She tries to figure out what he could possibly have meant. Did he think the ice cream was making him hallucinate? Did he think she did not truly mean to greet him?] I assure you, I'm right here in front of you. Why wouldn't I be? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ a chunk of ice cream plopped back into the bowl. ] I meant the ears. [ he tried to keep his voice even but it's hard. Because Bak can't help but remember a few of the stories he's heard about Komui's potion back in the day. He is so, so glad he missed that muck-up. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bendthekey 2013-08-10 03:12 pm UTC (link)
	My...ears? [She immediately reaches up to touch one of them, sliding her fingers along and trying not to squirm at how ticklish they can be.] It feels fine. Is the fur too out of place? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	punching_bag 2013-08-17 05:35 pm UTC (link)
	[ fjkl; he points! ] Your ears! Most humans don't have those! [ fjkdls pay attention Toul! And even then, only people with a fetish keep those ears on where others can see! ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bendthekey 2013-08-24 09:22 pm UTC (link)
	[That is even more confusing for her.] Well of course most don't, but I certainly couldn't have two sets of them. [She laughs at her own joke--which is not much of a joke really. Then she gives him an assessing eye.] Are you all right, sir? You seem to be a little confused. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	punching_bag 2013-08-25 06:48 pm UTC (link)
	[ he groans internally and simply rubs at his eyes ] Never mind. Cat ears are perfectly normal and not strange at all. [ he waved a hand ] Your ice cream will melt if you don't start eating it soon. Food like that shouldn't be wasted. [ only because it was delicious ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bendthekey 2013-08-25 07:10 pm UTC (link)
	[Bafflement is her current state of mind and her ears flick back and forth as she tries to understand his strange statements. But then she looks down at her ice cream to see that it is indeed melting.] Oh! Thank you for reminding me. [She takes two big bites, only to wince and shake her head at the chill.] Maybe I should have gotten a smaller bowl. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[ he can't help the silly little smile gracing his lips as he dug into his own confection, slowly licking it off his spoon. ]

Nonsense. You're young. These are the things that the youth should indulge in.

[ if only he could have given a giant vat to Lenalee (and all the other children in the order) when she was a child. Perhaps then, she might have smiled a bit more before her brother arrived to save the day.

But alas, he was barely above finder back then. ]

	Not that young. [She laughs slightly.] But indulgence isn't so bad...sometimes. I haven't had ice cream in months! It's too expensive to eat often. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	punching_bag 2013-08-25 09:24 pm UTC (link)
	Then why not make it yourself? [ it's not that hard, is it? He's certainly looking at Toul as though it shouldn't be, all the puzzled confusion and what not on his face. Because, in the end, it's just basic chemistry. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[What a silly idea, but she's had it herself before.] I would have loved to try it once, but it takes far too long and you need special freezing machines that we didn't have. My Master didn't see the point of it if I could just go out and by fresh foods when he wanted them.

The creamery in town specializes in making different ice creams, shakes and parfaits during the summer months. They're quite delicious.

	Things worth waiting for are often worth making too. [ but after that little, tiny bit of pandering, he leans an elbow on the table and gestures with a spoon. ] So you had a Master then? What was his specialty? [ he's clearly thinking master and an apprentice. Toul was around that age. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bendthekey 2013-08-26 01:12 pm UTC (link)
	Well, if I ever do own a refrigeration box, I'll definitely try to make it at least once. [Just so she can said she made homemade ice cream.] Master Galin is a Keymaster. He's one of the best in the country. [Which it may be hard to believe if someone has ever met him.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	punching_bag 2013-08-31 08:43 pm UTC (link)
	[ he scratched at his chin absentmindedly with a spoon, smearing leftover ice cream all across his skin. ] So he's a locksmith? [ although from how she said Keymaster, he wasn't sure if that was quite right after all. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bendthekey 2013-08-31 08:58 pm UTC (link)
	Oh no! Locksmithing is very different from keymastering! Well--except the involvement of locks. But a locksmith isn't a keymaster at all. Unless they've studied to be one, that is. I guess you could certainly choose to be both... [Yes she is rambling.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	punching_bag 2013-08-31 09:04 pm UTC (link)
	[ he's just staring at her, brow furrowed ] Then what is a key master? [ but he doesn't mind the rambling. Not really. Despite appearances to the contrary, he liked learning about new things. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[And Toul enjoys helping others learn, so it works for both of them.] A keymaster is a master of one of the Mystic Arts. A true master can open the locks that chain our world in reality. Certainly that includes normal locks, but usually it is less...physical than that. I've only been an apprentice for a few years now and I still don't know everything there is to know about keymastering.

Yes, please go on.

[ Forget the ice cream, this is intriguing! And cue one bowl of half eaten ice cream getting shoved aside as he leans in, eyes bright with curiosity. ]

Where does the world go if you unlock the chain to reality? Is it a dream world or an alternate reality?

[ because, you know, he's been studying up on this stuff ever since Geordi came to town. ]

Where? [She's confused but laughs a bit.] It doesn't go anywhere! It's just...things aren't set in stone if they aren't chained down.

[She holds up her own spoon for a moment.] We see this spoon and know it's a spoon, correct? That is our world as we see it. Reality. But a truly skilled keymaster can...unlock the chain and who says this is spoon is truly just a spoon then?

	[ he blinked and then frowned, taking Toul's spoon and carefully examining it before speaking, giving her a look if she starts to protest. ] What else would the spoon be? It can't be a fork. [ little does he know ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Well I wouldn't know myself, to me it's just a spoon. And likely it's only ever always been a spoon. [She gives an easy shrug.] But it is wasn't only a spoon and there was something else locked inside of it or to it, then that is what a keymaster is meant to find out.

I'm still at the stage of learning to recognize the difference between just a spoon and something that could be more on my own.

	Oh. [ he sighed and handed back her spoon, suddenly embarrassed for stealing it ] I suppose there is always more than meets the eye behind every occupation. I do hope you can continue your studies here. [ or... not. Depending. He gets so confused sometimes about who comes and goes and when! ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bendthekey 2013-08-31 11:39 pm UTC (link)
	[She smiles at him as she accepts the spoon back and scoops up some of her sundae to eat.] Do you have keymasters here? I can't continue my training without a master to work under. [Not that she likes the idea of having a teacher besides Master Galin, but he was always the one encouraging her to take the initiative.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	punching_bag 2013-09-01 05:51 pm UTC (link)
	[ Bak just looked semi-miserably at Toul as he watched her eat her sundae ] I'm afraid you're the first one I've meet. [ even if she was still technically an apprentice. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
