[ Mizuki has the decency to not stare at her, but he doesn’t really follow her suit, considering that he doesn’t really mind being soaked like this. Realistically, he prefers it. ]
I guess so. I’ll admit that I am a liiittle lost, but I feel a lot better with you here~.
Did you get here from the gates...? Or... was it the lake?
( because. well. the lake makes very little sense. not that just waking up standing at the gates did, but gates are logistical entrance points. especially for amusement parks.
ultimately it might not be important, though. )
... We can't leave. Most of us here have been trapped for months now- since... well, the devices on our wrist claim August. The mist is impassable though- I've tried.
I dunno. When I came to, I was just sort of in the water? So, I guess from the lake…?
[ He doesn't really remember what he was doing, so… He does ponder what she says after very briefly. Admittedly, though? It's not the first time he's been whisked away somewhere strange, and it's certainly not the first time any Terran was trapped somewhere like this. So, ultimately, he's able to brush it off rather well. Is that concerning? It should be. ]
Well, if that's the case, then we'll just have to figure out another way home, no problem~!
( why change the way people come to the park? or... was this her doing? guilt drains color from her face slightly and she closes her eyes and tries to settle herself down. she didn't know. she couldn't have known. she had tried to help and
and for it, people are drowning in the lake.
fuck. )
... Right. Until then though, I can tell you about how parts of this place work, at least.
[ If Mizuki had the perception to pick up on that self-pity stuff, he'd absolutely get on her case about it. Alas, he has the emotional awareness of a dead fly, so here we are, with an overly happy jellyfish completely oblivious to her concerns. ]
Mafuyu! What a pretty name. And, look at that, we're both M names~! Same amount of syllables and everything! I'm Mizuki!! And thank you for helping me again. I'll be in your care!
( she can't connect to or identify her emotions, she doesn't know what she's feeling :( she just knows she did something. deadrabbit told her so! do you really think deadrabbit would just lie?
...
don't answer that.
his name does manage to catch her off guard, and she looks up in surprise. )
Oh... one of the girls in my music group is also named Mizuki. ( after a moment, mafuyu forces a smile and it gives a more apologetic vibe. ) I'm sorry. I must seem terribly out of it- it's been a bit of a rough month. Thank you.
[ He won’t acknowledge the apology, mostly because he doesn’t think it’s necessary. He thinks she’s reasonably out of it given their circumstances? He understands. ]
“Music group”? Are you in a band, then?? What sort of music do you play? Do you sing? What kind of instruments do you play?
Not exactly... we work almost entirely online. I'm most familiar with pianos or synthesizers, though... we do sometimes sing ourselves, but that sort of equipment is harder to get and keep, so we've used vocal programs.
( the vocaloids. ... she still can't access the sekai.
but that makes mafuyu pause again. it's strange, talking about this openly to someone not in n25. )
I work on the lyrics and mixing, mostly. But our composer, Kanade, is also here. ... She's a gentle girl, so please be kind to her.
( no, kanade's special, you gotta be extra good to her or else. this applies to everyone of course. anyways i was going to say i can't believe mizuki's a mafuyu oshi but i can actually.
she chuckles but shakes her head. )
I wouldn't say idols. ( it's more like tuyu but goth to be honest. ) We just do our best.
( another time, she'll remember their music is on her phone, but until then maybe mizuki will catch her and kanade taking over the stage like it's no big deal. because it isn't. it's theirs now. )
We've got open access to the stage, if you'd ever like to give it a try.
Ah…? "Give it a try"? Like, playing music and stuff??? I really can't. I don't even know how to read music or nothin'… But I'd love to watch you guys perform something!
Well, if you don't mind, I'd really like to learn, I think. I just don't want to be too much of a bother…
[ Mizuki could probably pick up, like, a launchpad pretty quickly. But that aside, instruments and such are totally lost on him. He could sing, technically, but… he would really prefer not to. ]
It'll be nice to have something to do that isn't... all of this, honestly.
( a sense of normalcy, or something like that. and thanks to the fact that she tutors her classmates sometimes, mafuyu has a hang on that sort of thing... even if kanade winds up not agreeing, mafuyu can do it. )
Come by the stage any time... until then, you should know that playing the games and such things will get you park tokens, which is how you can get food or other things. ... The food here isn't too good, though.
[ Well, if it helps Mafuyu in the end, it's certainly going to be a priority. He doesn't really know if he'll be a very good student considering his lack of experience, but he is pretty good at following directions? Who knows for sure how it'll go… ]
Oh… is it not? I don't suppose… there's a kitchen around here, then, is there? Maybe I can do something about the food?? I really prefer to eat my own meals than being served, anyway.
There's food stalls, but I haven't tried to get into them.
( actually, why hasn't anyone tried... she's afraid of the masks, but surely noah would be the sort to brute-force his way in? )
If you try... maybe don't do that alone. This place reacts badly to the strangest things. I don't know what could happen if we try to force our way through something.
Uhh, well, I only really know one other person here, but I'm sure he'd be down for breaking into the stalls with me! Especially if it means I can actually cook better food~.

I can teach you. Kanade would likely not mind, either- she loves music and getting to share it.
