Of course it was! I didn't even have to resort to Plans B, C, or D!

[ Thank goodness. ]

[ordimame]

And what were plans B, C and D, exactly?

[scooptimistic]

That's for me to know.

[ And no one else, apparently. Since she didn't need to make use of them. ]

[ordimame]

And no one else to find out?

[but he's so curious!!]

[scooptimistic]

Correct!

[ordimame]

[a small laugh, though his features turn thoughtful soon after]

Well, since you were the one to bring it up. . . what are you thoughts, Maya?

[scooptimistic]

I was wondering if maybe we should look at people who don't exactly get along with everyone. Because they might have more solid preferences.

Soooo, maybe anyone who didn't get involved in Spin the Bottle?

[ This is not bullying. She just thought that might be a good definitive thing. ]

[ordimame]

[blinks?? a few times?? he does not feel bullied, at least!]

It might be true for Odile, but I don't know if it is for me. . .? I'm still getting to know everyone.

[scooptimistic]

[ Oh, good! ]

So no one's really got you interested yet?

[ WELL MAYBE IF HE'D KISSED SOME PEOPLE ]

[ordimame]

[only Odile has that goss and it's "two day impressions" goss so he does not think it is worth bringing up--]

I think I'm the kind of person who needs more than just four days.

[which is also not a lie!]

[scooptimistic]

I think a lot of us are. But I think even having a strong first impression can be important in a game like this.

[ Just to get a foot in. ]

[ordimame]

[HAH. . .]

So you want to know my "strong impressions?" I hope you're asking that question with the intention of sharing yours.

[scooptimistic]

I can tell you as much, but they're all fairly level at the moment.

[ordimame]

So are mine. So let's hear it!

[scooptimistic]

I think we've got a strong mix of people looking for love and people looking for... well, their desires granted. Regardless of what you believe.

[ Yes, she knows he thinks the wish is bullshit. ]

But I really do like everyone. Ringo and I are a lot alike, so she's easy to get along with and she's always eager to try new things. Shoko's also really great and I can tell she's going to be an amazing drinking buddy; I get the feeling she can deescalate a situation like no one's business. Nico's enthusiasm and occasional masochism for what he loves [ garlic bread ] are completely relatable, and him being a vampire doesn't change that for me. Poppy's really cute and expressive and makes video games, which is awesome.

[ A breath. ]

Yingying really seems to like unbalancing others, but it's not mean-spirited and of course we both know she's gorgeous. Shindou-san is really fascinating to talk to and has a pretty solid head on his shoulders, even if his smile is a little crooked. Odile doesn't take any shit and also tells really interesting stories about where she's traveled, though she does feel more like a cool aunt to me. Furina is full of passion and thoughtfulness and we're definitely due a movie marathon, because I'd love to get more of her thoughts. It feels like she's also a romantic. Luka's one big mystery but I really like his confidence. Yi Sang feels like he's one step away from being understood, but I need to put some work in there--from what I've noticed, he's very kind, just hesitant about it.

[ ANOTHER BREATH. ]

Serpilia's pretty and really great to converse with, so I'm looking forward to talking to her more! You like to think things out, but you're also a romantic, and I respect someone who can come on this show and stick to his ideals. There's more to Aventurine than meets the eye and I think we've all realized that by now, but he's dazzling in a way beyond his words and I don't think he sees that. Verso is charming but careful about it, which tells me he's got a lot of depth to him that I'm not sure if he's ready to show us yet. And Messmer may be a giant guy with snakes but I think there's something to be said about how he's still willing to speak with everyone and doesn't just try to leave a conversation immediately. I actually think he has a sense of humor.

So! There you have it!

[ordimame]

[oh]






[OH SHE HAS PUT WAY MORE THOUGHT INTO THIS THAN HE HAS]

Wow, Maya. . .

You're really considerate. It's impressive.

[scooptimistic]

You think? I just really admire the differences in people.

[ Is that weird. ]

[anathemaw]

... Thy heart burns remarkable, to speak so of these strangers.

[ messmer is impressed. ]

[scooptimistic]

Strangers have the most potential of all, when you think about it. They can become an enemy, an ally, a close friend, or even a lover.

I'm just lucky enough that everyone's turned out to be great, in a bunch of different ways! So I'll take credit where it's due, but this is just all based off observation and interaction.

[ Her heart, huh. ]

[irreversal]

[ She gets a thumbs up from Shoko from whatever wall she's leaning against. You're doing great, bestie!! ]

[scooptimistic]

[ A thumbs up in return!!

Thanks! That was a lot of talking! ]

[reverso]

[Perceived again]

[scooptimistic]

[ ehe ]

[gamboler]

[ gently with feeling: what the fuck ]

[scooptimistic]

[ Wow. A girl answers a question and this happens. ]
