[there are (anna voice) clowns about, but itsuki's here at the carnival because well what else do you do when you're trapped. he peeks from the impaled unicorn he's hiding behind, then he looks at bonnibel... maybe they're sharing the unicorn, maybe she's rightfully six feet away from him,]
Want me to jump out and distract them?
[so that she can, he's assuming, run away!!!]

I think so. At least, that's what I heard. Are you worried for me?
[🥺🥺🥺🥺]
[🥺🥺🥺🥺]
Of course I'd be worried. That's such a horrible way to go.
[ death by clown
how do you recover from that ]

[bubblegum: i am worried about all clown deaths
itsuki: so u care about me, specifically then]
You really don't have to be. [doubt] I'll be super careful! The last thing I want to do is upset you.
[we just met and this is crazy]

Oh. Yeah. Thanks for not upsetting me?

This may be a good chance to observe them in their habitat.

Habitat?
[he's caught off guard from his attempt to be a white knight,]
...So you just want to watch them?

...So you just want to watch them?
For now! Unless they make any weird moves.
But they're one of the few species here.

[hm, it's true that this is the first time Itsuki's looked at a clown without also running fastly away]
You think we'll figure something out about this place if we keep watching them?
You think we'll figure something out about this place if we keep watching them?
Yes, like... where are all the people? Did the clowns eat them?
Things like that.
Things like that.
[he nods.... hold on]
Wait, is that something you can figure out just by looking...?
[(1) fear]

It may require closer study.
[ a pause ]
Or we see if they try to eat anyone, I guess, but that's a terrible way to find out.

And probably really gross.
[which is also terrible, he looks thoughtful]
We could always step in before things get that far. Maybe after one or two bites...

It's the only ethical thing to do.
[ i guess ]
How long have you been hiding back here?
[ i guess ]
How long have you been hiding back here?
[sensing that this very cute girl has a perhaps chaotic side to her,]
Ummm... [uhhhhhhhMmmmmMm] I fell asleep a while ago, so maybe... an hour?
Ummm... [uhhhhhhhMmmmmMm] I fell asleep a while ago, so maybe... an hour?
... that must be horrible for your back, dude.
[ sleep on a bed. ]
[ sleep on a bed. ]
It's fine, it's fine. I have really high endurance.
[is that why he's hiding]
[is that why he's hiding]
Are you just saying that or is it proven?
[ none trust ]
[ none trust ]
[she's so scientific it's so cute]
...Well, I've had a lot of people tell me that... That counts right?
...Well, I've had a lot of people tell me that... That counts right?
I suppose...
But let's try not to test it out too soon. We just met.
[ no death via clown.... ]

[what about kwissing...]
I guess there are better ways to get to know each other... What's your name? I'm Itsuki Kagami.

[ no ]
You can call me Pr-- Bubblegum's fine. What do you think of this whole weird mess?

Bubble-chan.
[SHE SAID BUBBLEGUM??? but at the question he's silent for a moment, then]
I thought it was a prison at first, maybe. Or someone's dream that we got stuck in... [he shrugs] But that would be pretty hard to prove, even if it was real.

Well, if it were a dream, we would simply wake them up.
[ yeah! but she accepts these ideas. ]
I think we were sucked into a different dimension.

What makes you say that?
[said curiously, rather than doubtfully. he's already getting the impression that she's not someone who just says whatever without having thought about it]
