[Tink has had another one of his clearly brilliant ideas. The most exciting part of which being that he can't take full credit for it: Firo totally helped. And somehow, Tink has figured that since he is not the sole progenitor (good thing this is narrative, right? because he would never know what the hell that word means) of this wish, that totally

[She loves visiting the park now and walking; she's been around big cities for such a long time that it's getting hard to remember how it used to be. So she hears the commotion and immediately makes her way over to the stall that seems just a bit out of place]

What are you playing?

[immamartillo]

You hide the pea under one of the cups, mix 'em around and you hafta guess which one hides it. It's pretty easy.

You up for it?

[mei_blossom]

Hmm...

[mei_blossom]

Okay, I can try! [She'll watch really really closely!]

[immamartillo]

[He shows the pea under a cup and then starts shuffling them around. She looks pretty focused, but it can't hurt to at least try to distract her.]

So, what's your name?

[mei_blossom]

[That worked]

Ah, I'm Taiwan! [Offers a polite little bow, her gaze taken off the moving cups] I haven't met you before...?

[immamartillo]

[He laughs]

I dunno, have you?

[mei_blossom]

Eheh. I don't think so. What's your name, then?

[immamartillo]

I'm Firo Prochainezo. Nice ta' meet'cha, Taiwan.

[Almost as an afterthough, he adds]

That's a funny name you've got there.

[mei_blossom]

Nice to meet you, Firo! [She's back to watching the cups, only she seems to have lost track] O-oh, it is? Everyone has been telling me that recently...

[immamartillo]

Thanks!

[Aw, man, she's watching the cups again. He starts going a little faster.]

I've never heard one like it before, and back home there are people from all over?

[mei_blossom]

It's...the name of a country, so I guess it does sound a little strange.

[immamartillo]

It is? How come you got named after it?

[mei_blossom]

Uh, well...I didn't really get named after it...

[immamartillo]

[He tries to figure out another alternative]

It got named after you? Are you somebody special over there?

[mei_blossom]

I-i'm actually the country, Taiwan.
