[ Why is there a pool table in the corner of this pic though. ]

Well, I can't say I've ever been anywhere like this...

[ The good news is that Serpilia is almost wearing athletic clothing when she's not forced to dress in nice dresses because she's being whisked off to fancy places.

The bad news is Serpilia does have to wonder just how much fun someone like Shoko will have in a place like this. ]

Same actually, but I've been on a trampoline before, so it's kind of the same thing.

[ Is it? ]

[ Athletic clothing isn't Shoko's quite default, in contrast, but yes she is slaying this look too and has her hair up in a ponytail. ]

Is it the same thing...?

[ Well. If nothing else, Shoko will have fun seeing what Serpilia gets up to. ]

You seem like you're going to have fun here, though. Wanna show me how it's done?

[ Eeeh. Serpilia smiles and shrugs a little. She doesn't actually know.

She's also getting a laugh out of that one. ]

You are grossly overestimating my athletic abilities if you think I can show anyone anything.

[ She will take one tentative step out onto the springy floor. ]

How about we topple ass over head on this thing together?

Ehh? Really? You have an athletic vibe to you, though, Serpilia. I'm surprised.

[ But stepping onto the floor with her, already feeling how bouncy it is. Oh, boy... ]

Don't worry, if you break any bones, I can probably heal you.

[ Probably!! ]

The trick is to dress like you're up for anything.

[ She wobbles a little as she moves her way across the trampoline in small, bouncy steps. ]

And then regret it when people read too much into your style.

[ She'll do a little hop now, springing up into the air a half a foot or so. ]

I may end up needing that by the end of this.

Well, I happen to like your style, so don't regret it too much.

[ Shoko does the same, though, looking as deadpan as ever even as she shoots up a bit higher. ]

So, we just... hop around like this?

[ She flashes Shoko a spring as she bounces back up into the air. She happens to be a fan of her own style too. ]

I guess so? People who are actually good at this can probably do flips and all that, but I don't want to put your healing abilities to the test when you have to fix a broken neck, so I won't be trying that one out.

[ She chuckles at that. ]

I appreciate that. I'm not trying to work overtime here, though that doesn't mean I'd just leave you hurting if something happened, heh.

[ She casts her gaze about; there are parts of this place that are definitely meant to be more exciting, but Shoko... is not a thrill-seeker. Still, it wouldn't do for them to just bounce in place the whole time, huh?

So she'll just. Hop along in a straight line... Or try to, at least. It would be a shame if they lost their balance— ]

Ah. I've got it. This place is just an over-sized playground for grown-ups. Look, there's a ball pit and everything.

[ Serpilia will bounce after her, so far so not having fallen on their asses.

So far... ]

It reminds me of a Laterano preschool in some ways.

[ It would be a shame if they were to accidentally bounce into each other at some point—

But so far so good! ]

Oh? Are preschools were you're from like this? Woah, that's kind of fun... Now I'm picturing a baby Serpilia bouncing around in a place like this.~

[ In three comments counting down crash is incoming.

Three... ]

Maybe a little less springy, but definitely a lot of things for a kid to get up to. I wasn't one of the more rambunctious kids.

[ She frowns as she bounces along, starting to get caught up in her thoughts in a way that could soon lead to disaster. ]

Not that I remember anyway.

Heh... It's kind of fun to imagine a rambunctious little version of you. Guess I don't really remember what I was like in preschool either, though.

I was definitely a rambunctious teenager, though.

[ Serpilia saw Shoko's ghosts. Maybe it's not all too difficult to imagine an equally rowdy Shoko hanging out with those boys. ]
