2 ✿ VIDEO / ACTION NEAR FREYA SLIDES

[cathexis]

[Once upon a time in the Freya Welcome House, there's a shy girl who tends to be alone for the most part. Today, she mostly hiding her face with her hands. If one looks closer, it looks like there's something behind her hands that's on her face.

Also, she's actually sitting still on the middle of a slide and not sliding down at all. Nanase looks a little uncomfortable as she tries to move, but to no avail. Maybe her butt is glued to the slide. Who knows? She briefly removes her hands from her face and if you look fast enough before she lowers the camera upon realization, you can see that she's wearing a pair of these on her face. Forever judging...]

... I have a request. If anybody would listen...

[The voice starts off as meek and if you strain your ears, she sounds a little frustrated.]

Please don't use the slide in the Freya Welcome Hall from the fourth floor and above. [Or she will charm you to oblivion! ... Well, no not really.] And if somebody could give me a paper bag, I would really... appreciate it.

Thank you. [HOW DO YOU TURN THIS THING OOOFFFF--oh, there it is.]

But those are glasses. [ Did we remember he doesn't get how to read the air that well? ]

( action )

[cathexis]

... [She is still shaking her head. You're not going to win this one, Red.]

( action )

[competition]

... You can't take them off? [ NANASE, JUST ADMIT THEY'RE GLASSES, SHEESH. ]

( action )

[cathexis]

[SOMEBODY DREW ON HER FACE--wait, that's even worse, huh...

She pauses a little and shakes her head again. Still has her hands up to her face though. There has been too much head shaking...]

( action )

[competition]

You don't need to be embarrassed... [ Uhm. He would feel bad if he just left her like here, stuck on the slide, with these ridiculous frames on her face--

Pikachu doesn't, so he's sliding past them to get to the bottom. ]

( action )

[cathexis]

[Oh... There goes your pet mouse thing--wait, RED THAT STARTS LIKE A LEAD-IN LINE. But by the look on his face, Nanase guesses that... wasn't his intention. At all. Okay, she can rest easy about that.]

... It's... embarrassing.

( action )

[competition]

... I think they're funny? [ Though he doesn't exactly get... why it's embarrassing.

Nor does he understand what the glasses are supposed to convey. ]

( action )

[cathexis]

[Then that is most likely the problem... Red, dig deeper--

Although hearing that just makes Nanase mentally shrink even further.]

Are they really...?

( action )

[competition]

Yeah... I would like a pair. [ STOP TAKING THINGS SO NEGATIVELY, SHEESH. HE IS FROM POKEMON--

Oh, Pikachu is sliding down again. ]

( action )

[cathexis]

[Like that matters for a negative nancy...

Nanase is still leaning over to the side to let Pikachu through.]

... They're from a little shop in the Freyr district. I'm sure they still... have a lot in stock.

( action )

[competition]

[ Pikachu slides back down... And then in like a couple of more minutes, Pikachu will be back to slide again!! ]

What are they supposed to be there. [ He doesn't get it. ]

( action )

[cathexis]

They're, um... just for aesthetic purposes. For fun... I suppose.

[Only if she could have taken it off the moment she put them on for kicks...]

( action )

[competition]

Yeah... But what are they supposed to be? [ Why are the eyebrows like that? Are they even eyebrows to begin with?! ]

( action )

[cathexis]

... A certain judging expression. [She's not sure if she can explain the concept of internet emotes to Red.]

( action ) 1/???

[competition]

[ Staring at her for a long time. ]

( action )

[competition]

[ Then at the glasses--but it still just looks like he staring at her, really. ]

( action )

[competition]

( action )

[competition]

[ He... really doesn't get it-- ]

( action ) DONE

[competition]

[ And Pikachu is sliding down for the nth time, but jumps mid slide and clings to Red's face. ]

( action ) 1/2

[cathexis]

[Nanase is about to say something, but--]

( action )

[cathexis]

[SUDDEN PIKACHU CLINGING ONTO RED'S FACE SEEMINGLY OUT OF NOWHERE--rekhgk you bet she was surprised.]

( action )

[competition]

[ Some muffling noise, but he kind of accidentally slips...

and slides down backwards only to be followed by a huge thud. ]

( action )

[cathexis]

[ohhh my god... she couldn't grab his hand in time! Oh no... She hears that huge thud too and uu... uuuuuuuu DAMMIT.]

A-Are you okay down there...?!

( action )

[competition]

I'm fine. [ CAN YOU HEAR THAT NANASE?? He's all the way down four floor, but can you hear that. ]

( action )

[cathexis]

[Just barely. She can only do so much while being stuck on the slide, man.]

... No red marks or anything...?
