Two of the people I'm sharing a living space with seemed... very excited about it, so I assumed that sort of thing was just something we don't have in Daxing that is common in other places. But is that not the case?
Nope, I don't think we have anything like that back home either... We have parties, but no one goes there to think. Unless it's a poetry reading or something.
Then it's decided then. [closing my eyes at that entire trial] If you see something weird or need to use me as a distraction, then just hold up your hand.

Yes, but now we have much nicer scenery to look at while we walk!
no subject
The scenery's always been nice to look at though? [he winks at her, help]
no subject
You must get along well with the four residents here then. They've also said it's generally been quite nice.
no subject
They're pretty easy-going to talk to for people who didn't expect us to crash their place. We've been pretty lucky, huh?
no subject
no subject
Right? I think of myself as an easy-going guy, but even I would be pretty shy around a bunch of strangers if they showed up in my house.
no subject
[granted, a batch of strangers showing up at her house in her own world tends to spell trouble, so.]
no subject
Would you wait for them to leave?
no subject
What would you do?
no subject
Then I'd give them the things they want most.
no subject
no subject
Right? The only difference is I'd tell them the price upfront. I've got the home advantage, so I might as well make things fair.

That's about the same read I've got on them so far. They seem to mean well enough, and they don't really seem to mean us harm...
[it's difficult to trust them wholeheartedly even though she gets along with them, though.]
no subject
speaking of thoughts...]
Yeah, they've answered questions, given us stuff... and apparently planned a party with a really specific theme...
no subject
[her brow furrows slightly.]

no subject
Well, I suppose we can take part, but... we ought to keep our guard up.
no subject
Should we come up with a secret code? Whoever finds something sketchy can signal the other person.
[there are phones]
no subject
That could work... ah, but couldn't we also just send each other a message on these?
[she reaches into her sleeve and pulls out her phone]
Although I suppose it would be obvious to anyone watching that we were saying something, though they wouldn't know what it was...
no subject
[he puts his index finger and thumb together to make a heart heh]
I don't think anyone will notice that.
no subject
[she puts her index finger and thumb together the same way, considering it]
You're right, I think that should be subtle enough.
no subject

no subject
Likewise, if you need the same from me, just send the signal.
