You can pick me up and lower me yourself, if you're so worried! But I always stick the dismount!

[ She doesn't seem concerned. ]

But it's true that drama might play a factor here. In which case, one of our quieter friends with one of our louder ones?

[phenomerom]

Someone quiet with someone loud ...

[ Hm. Pondering that for a moment. ]

Perhaps not too quiet. Not someone who'd be overwhelmed. A one-sided interaction probably doesn't make for good television.

[scooptimistic]

Right, I was thinking more like... calm.

[ Not dead inside-- ]

[phenomerom]

[ Yeah he's gonna cast a brief sidelong glance at Yi Sang. ]

That's exactly it. I'm afraid I've been a little too occupied to pay as much attention to everyone else's interactions as I'd like, but ... is there anyone comes to mind fitting that description for you?

[scooptimistic]

For calm... Shoko. Odile. You, probably in certain situations. Messmer. Yi Sang, I think, is a deeply poetic person, but I don't think he really wants to stand in the spotlight just yet, sort of like you said. Yingying's calm, but also playful and I don't know how much of her personality is just... lack of energy sometimes.

Everyone else is a bit... not like that!

[ How tactful. ]

1/2

[phenomerom]

Everyone's brimming with energy. It's good to see.

[ Which is one way of putting it! Anyway, ignoring the mention of himself: ]

I'd guess Miss Odile might also be reluctant to enter the spotlight. Ieiri-san would probably indulge a request if asked ...

[ Pause. ]

[phenomerom]

... do you think Lord Messmer will even fit in this Truth Booth?

[scooptimistic]

...

I'm sure they have measures in place for that.

[ But now she kind of wants to see that. ]

[phenomerom]

They do seem to have accommodated for him in this main house, so. Then, presuming he won't be made too uncomfortable in there ...

[ Though he's frankly just imagining Messmer hunched over miserably in there with his snakes and the other party. The thought has him smiling just a little wider to himself -- creepy! -- as he moves on. ]

Ieiri-san, Lord Messmer, and Miss Yingying. May be my suggestions for the calmer party. Especially Miss Yingying, I suppose, since she seems quite comfortable with volunteering. As for someone who might fare well with her ...

[ Hmmmmmm. This is hard. ]

[scooptimistic]

... Well, if we go with that assumption, we could just ask her who she'd like to go in there with her.

Just, in general, opposites or not. She's pretty lively, so I think she probably gets along with most people.

[ Good for her! ]

[phenomerom]

[ Lively ... that she is. ]

That's certainly an option! I'm not opposed.

[scooptimistic]

And what about you, Shindou-san? Curious about stepping into the booth yourself?

[ Just to gauge. ]

[phenomerom]

Myself ...

[ Arms crossed as he thinks it over seriously for a moment instead of evading. ]

Well, I wouldn't say no if it was requested by the group. But our wishes are potentially at stake, aren't they? I don't have the faintest idea who they might have matched me with, so I wouldn't want to take that risk without more information.

[scooptimistic]

And you don't think your intuition or how you personally feel about anyone would matter much?

[ Like. If not, that's also fine. ]

[phenomerom]

I'm pretty confident in my intuition. But not in this regard. It's a little hard to start making guesses with no prior experience to work off of.

[ And given his line of work, he's been taught to always be cautious ... ]

Are your instincts telling you anything, Amano-san?

[scooptimistic]

To learn more. About everyone.

[ Haaaaa. ]

And that I can trust your intuition, whenever it kicks in.
