Well, I actually came here to ask about that... [ YOU WISH. ] What usually happens on a date? Like for modern people.

[ He's a fake olde. ]

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 12:22 am (UTC)(link)
It depends on what you're into! It's popular to like, go to meals and get to know each other. Or watch films... I'm sure that anime night would be a popular date spot.

[ she says that, but her tone is so bland that she obviously does not think anime is a good date spot. ]

Or doing things that you can make a good memory with. Like... doing something exciting together.

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
Anime night...

[ Nier is like... Not sure how those things would make it any special only because restaurants don't exist anymore in his world. He also doesn't know anime, so his expression is the same. damn they are like anti-weebs (for now). ]

A date should be special, so that does sound good. Gone on any exciting dates before?

[ she's going to remain an anti-weeb, sally is so normie ]

I have! Like--

[ she closes her mouth. ]

Well, most of them aren't really that great of a memory now.
amain: (pic#14879446)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 05:13 pm (UTC)(link)
[ that's fair. ]

... Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. How come?
departea: (pic#8328031)

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it's a little complic--

[ but, before she can really say much else, a memory starts (stop at 16:55).

when the memory stops, she's just kind of... staring in surprise. ]
amain: (pic#14962015)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 06:19 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Nier... Is also like what the fuck did I just see. Me, hei, being like stab that man what the fuck. ]

Sally, you're...

[ Dead? ]
departea: (pic#8331345)

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 06:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know what that was.

[ there's a nervous laugh, and she just moves to sit down on the armchair. ]

Ignore that. It's-- that was weird.
amain: (pic#14928075)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 08:14 pm (UTC)(link)
… Uhm, all right.

[ Nier is still concerned, but he’s also polite and considerate enough to take her word for it. It’s not something he’ll forget, though. A memory of his (to 7:38) plays after. ]

All of this is weird.

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 08:27 pm (UTC)(link)
[ he had mentioned before that kainé didn't remember him when they first got here, but he failed to mention what exactly he? did to manage that???

so sally just stares for a few seconds and then whispers, ]


Oh my god.
amain: (pic#14958226)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Sally?? Why are you whispering when he's right here. He chuckles a bit to try to... Make things not so awkward? ]

It's all right. It wasn't anything I was hiding, anyway.

[ But his explanations of it to others, through his own words, never included the desperation to save when all you've done is destroy. The guilt that everyone who loved you died for you. The unwillingness to lose another loved one. And the weariness... Of living. ]
departea: (pic#8328291)

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I mean... still. It's one thing if you're telling someone on your own, it's another for...

[ it to just get broadcasted like that, completely unprompted.

the second lacks a sense of agency about your own past. ]
amain: (pic#14918168)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
... Yeah, I get what you're saying. But it's not something you or I can control.

[ Nier has had enough of a breakdown yesterday over memshare, so he's tired. ]

At least, for now, we'll have a break from it and hopefully it won't happen again as we chat.
departea: (pic#8331733)

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's... well! What were we talking about? You were asking about dates, right?

[ it's a shaky attempt to something safer. ]

Did you have an idea on who to ask?
amain: (pic#14871343)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Not... Really.

[ mods: we gave you bite week and look at what's come out of it NOTHING ]

Do we have to go on one for the task? I thought we could just plan it.
departea: (pic#8331328)

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 09:14 pm (UTC)(link)
You should definitely go on one! Why waste the effort? It doesn't have to be like, romantic or anything...

It's all about the experience, yeah?
amain: (pic#14997140)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ oh, suddenly, he guesses he has to go on one?? ]

It is all about the experience. I'll see who wants to go with me.
departea: (pic#8328063)

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[ shoves nier onto a date. ]

Is there anyone you can think of?
amain: (pic#14906697)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I usually do a lot of things with Kainé, so that's my first thought. I don't really mind going on a date with anyone, though.

[ Nier likes people here. ]
departea: (pic#8328058)

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, go on one with her! Especially if it'll be the most comfortable.

[ she ships it ]
amain: (pic#14935844)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll see then. She's kind of wound up because of... This week.

[ Awful for both of them. ]

Are you going to go on any yourself?
departea: (pic#8331340)

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Beau and Claude both asked me, so I guess I'll go on date with them?

[ she has no idea why they asked her but! ]

It'll be interesting.
amain: (pic#14944714)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[ because she's cute ]

They're good people. [ Nier obviously likes them! ] Claude is kind of easy to rile up, though.
departea: (pic#8331631)

[personal profile] departea 2021-06-30 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, he's so funny. He's supposed to build me an igloo.

[ ... ]

I mean, he definitely will do horribly at it.
amain: (pic#14958227)

[personal profile] amain 2021-06-30 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
But it'll be funny.

[ That's all that matters?? ]
