this is my idea of a voice test

[You wake up on the bank of a river, the wind blowing idly and grass tickling your face. Sitting up, the sky is bright blue with the sun shining over you. It seems like a peaceful, pleasant summer day

[ ... Well. This is one of her stranger dreams. (And then to think the stuff she normally dreams of consists of eldritch abominations. Semi-normal stuff like this is weird, guys.) But hey, since it's obviously just a dream, Madotsuki will just continue sitting there and staring at the girl with her fish with a somewhat blank expression on her face. ]

[findspants]

[Things are about to get a lot less semi-normal Madotsuki... in any case though, Nino spots her and gives a friendly greeting, making her way over to her.]

Yo! I don't think I recognize you, so are you new here? [Then again she has pretty shit memory... Also, has she even put the fish down? That would be a no.]

[desomnia]

[ Oh, that takes Madotsuki aback for a moment, and it even shows up on her face for a moment. Nobody really talks a lot to her in her dreams.. Interacting, sure, but talking.. This sure is a weird part of the dream world!!

She stares at the fish for another moment in silence before she answers, her expression more blank again now. ]

I've.. been around here for a while.

[findspants]

Really? Huh, that's weird... [No, not really Nino. (unsure)] What's your name then?

[desomnia]

Madotsuki.

[ Not one of many words here, okay. She's just holding her knees to her chest now while she sits. ]

... I've never been to this particular spot before though.

[findspants]

... Madotsuki? [Saying her name like the most fucking abnormal thing she has ever heard of GOD WHAT KIND OF NAME IS THAT.]

Maybe you were further down the river then. Riku says it has Amazons but I'm not sure.

[desomnia]

[ WELL IT IS A REALLY UNUSUAL NAME.. IN FACT IT ISN'T REALLY NAME SINCE IT JUST MEANS 'WINDOW' OR SOME SHIT LIKE THAT, BUT. ]

Amazons.. [ She repeats the word, almost as if tasting it while she thinks about it. ] ... Maybe this is just a little further beyond the Wilderness.

[findspants]

[For her it's more like... too long LMFAO. The people she knows have names like Recruit, Sister, Star........]

You're from the wilderness?! [She's thinking of jungles and shit.]

[desomnia]

[ She shakes her head lightly, staring off into the distance rather than looking at Nino. What is being social.. ]

I've just been there before.. Not many people live there.

[findspants]

Oh, that's too bad... it would've been a good story to tell Sister... [Can you hear how much you've disappointed her Madotsuki you should.]

[desomnia]

[ Wow, this girl hasn't interacted with people in forever, cut her some slack. ]

... I could tell you things about it.. whatever you want to know. [ That's a good offer in return, right.. ]

[findspants]

Tell me everything you know.

[desomnia]

It's an empty place. There are a few plants, but.. that's it.

[ A pause. ] Some like to go on a picnic there.

[findspants]

Really, that's it? I thought there'd be wild animals and a bunch of trees...

Oh, we could just do that here though.

[desomnia]

I've never seen many animals around here.. [ THIS IS CLEARLY STILL THE DREAM WORLD. We need to go deeper. ]

... [ At that she moves her head slowly towards Nino though, her expression curious, surprised. ] We can.. have a picnic?

[findspants]

[BUT HOW DEEP IS DEEP ENOUGH? Also holding the fish out to her.] There's this, right?

Oh, totally! We just need a blanket to sit on and I can start cooking the fish... or do you need a table for a picnic and a blanket for dinner. [DEEP SHIT MAN.]
