[The past few weeks have been hard on Miakis. Several of her friends have been droned in rapid succession. Dronings are nothing new, of course; they happen all the time. But when it happens so frequently, to some of the people you've known longest in this town

"As it was explained to me, its normally for high school. Some sort of dating thing. I... Really don't know beyond that, nor could I tell you about dating things. Omoikane won't give me any information on that."

[sting_like_a]

High school? ...Oh well, I'm going anyway! [pause] No one said anything about dating stuff, though. Hmmm~ Guess that means I have to drag the hubby along after all!

Are you gonna go, Ruri?

[hontobakabaka]

"No one asked me to go, and dresses here are rather expensive so... Not unless I get asked."

[sting_like_a]

You don't need a date, though~ And I could help you find a dress!

[hontobakabaka]

"I'm not... Very social. I'm not sure a dress that costs me 4 weeks wages and standing in the corner is a very good evening."

[she sighs a bit]

[sting_like_a]

Seeeee, that is why you have friends like me~! I'm not gonna let you stand in the corner all night.

[hontobakabaka]

"Eh?"

[sting_like_a]

Parties like this are more fun with friends~ And they don't have to be boyfriends or anything.

[hontobakabaka]

"I dunno... Adult things like dances... They make me nervous."

[sting_like_a]

Why?

[hontobakabaka]

"I've never even held someone's hand before."

[sting_like_a]

I don't think I had, either, before I came here... It doesn't have to be all about dating and boys and stuff, though, does it?

[hontobakabaka]

"Isn't that what dances like this are about though?"

[sting_like_a]

Maybe... Or maybe it's just about having fun~

[hontobakabaka]

"I just don't want to come across as a hussy."
