Not a bad plan. Just don't psych yourself out of it. It's better to start talking to everybody now than before it's too late in the game anyway.

[bakaomi]

I know. I've heard people might be want to kill me less if I'm friendly.

[ lmao ]

[divus]

Funny how that works. [Taka...] Are you worried about getting close to people?

[bakaomi]

[ why do gods feel like therapists....... ]

I'm never going to see any of these people again after this, right?

[divus]

[THERE'S A VERY LOUD SIGH.]

Why are you both the same person?

[bakaomi]

Huh? Who?

[ WHO IS HE BEING COMPARED TO NOW ]

[divus]

You and Ray! Both of you with this "oh I'm not here to make friends because I'm not going to see anybody afterwards" thing. [Huff.] Though I guess you're a liiiittle less stubborn about it than he is.

[bakaomi]

[ TAKA JUST LOOKS

SO OFFENDED AT BEING COMPARED TO RAY ]

[divus]

[That's fine Love just starts laughing because that look is priceless.]

[bakaomi]

Oi! Stop that!

[ he didn't sign up for this ]

[divus]

Lighten up a little! I never said it was a totally bad thing...you're both just kind of stubborn like that. [A beat.] He's an interesting kid. It's probably more of a compliment than you think.

[It's unfortunate that Love likes Ray and Takaomi.]

[bakaomi]

We don't really get along.

[ they only really talk to each other because of the rabbit. ]

[divus]

Because you're both a little too similar? [Like. Why the fuck do you think Senri likes you two a lot? Or Love, for that matter.]

[bakaomi]

Nope. Can't be it.

[divus]

[She throws a ballet slipper at him =\]

Whatever. [She sounds like she's smiling though.] ...you're really nice to talk to when you want to talk, so I don't think you'll have much trouble speaking to others this week. Do I have to bribe you with a favor, too?

[bakaomi]

[ stop throwing shoes at him!! ]

I want to say no, but what's the bribe?

[divus]

[Then stop being tsun and dumb!!!]

Hmm...something small, but doable. What's something you'd want that you don't have here?

[bakaomi]

[ no!!!!! ]

... my music.

[divus]

You mean like an iPod or something? [She's suddenly really curious.]

[bakaomi]

Hm... I can manage with that.

[divus]

Okay. You talk to at least five people you haven't talked to before and tell me one fact about each of them, I can do that. But there's one more condition.

[...is this going to be weird? Yeah.] I want to hear you sing sometime.

[bakaomi]

... if I spoke to them once or twice during trial, does that still count?

[ ... ]

And singing? Really?

[divus]

I'll say no because you don't get to really know people that well in trials. [A shrug.]

...yeah. I'd say "sing a duet with me" but...

[bakaomi]

... mm. Fine.

[ he raises an eyebrow though ]

You sing?

[divus]

[Well. Since he asked.]

I was an idol. My voice is preeetty recognizable.

[So. She doesn't want to sing somewhere someone might overhear her.]
