[complementing]

WHO: Minako, Sakura, Ragna, and you!
WHERE: One of the arcade bars in the city.
WHEN: March 10th
WHAT: BIRTHDAY PARTY!
WARNINGS: None foreseen! Feel free to threadjack for Minako's Hot Potato Categories game.



[Welcome to the Emporium, an arcade bar that Minako and Sakura have decided to host their joint birthday party at! Come on in and have some fun playing games, eating junk food, and just hanging out with the birthday girls (and guy, if he decides to come).

There are, of course, the numerous arcade games that the place is known for, ranging from the old school 2v2 fighters to the shooting gallery kinds. But there are a smattering of other games as well, like DDR, darts, mini hoops, skeeball, and the pool table, too. There's also a wall of crane games in the back, with plenty of random and mostly cute prizes to win.

Make a stop by the purikura booth if you have time. Make some duck lips at the camera and then take the snaps home! (Or give them to the birthday girls for the memories.)

Oh, and be sure to exchange your money for tokens before you play all these games. The token machine seems kind of finicky, though. Maybe a strong (and hopefully discrete?) kick will help jumpstart it.

Walk to the dining area, and there'll be a feast waiting you! The arcade is providing a ton of pizza and wings, as well as alcohol, if you can show your ID. For dessert, there's the cake that Shuji made for the girls, as well as Minako's lemon tea cakes. Those are limited supply, though, so snag one before everyone eats it up.

Next to the dining area, there's a big sign that says "DUNK TANK OUTSIDE". Maybe take a look? Just be reaaaally sure you want to climb in before you do it, though. The towels provided by the arcade are pretty small.

And finally, if you need a break from the chaos, there's a couple of couches on the second floor. Take a load off and watch from above.]

Hopefully not literally.

[...you know...that could happen.]

[spirithacker]

[Anything could happen.]

Nope. The worst thing is my super-boring teammates and the people who were all 'it's too dangerous you should be at home'.

[mincingminuet]

To be fair, you probably should be at home, unless you have powers or something.

[Time's running out...]

I'd say the same thing to adults that don't have powers, too.

[spirithacker]

Yes, mom.

[The worst part is that she's right.

Actually, the worst part is that she's right and also beating him.]

[mincingminuet]

[Well, the round comes to a close.]

Good game, Shinji. You'll just have to beat my butt at Overlook tonight.

[spirithacker]

You better believe I'm getting my revenge.

[...actually, now that she brings it up...]

Have you checked the stream stats lately? Are you still getting viewers from outside Recolle?

[mincingminuet]

Yeah, it's weird? I have checked the stats and I'm still getting views. I asked Zee about it, the guy working for Retrospec and he said not to worry. Also, he doesn't know how or why.

[Which is bizarre? Extremely bizarre. But, you know, it's still money.]

[spirithacker]

[Not complaining about the money.]

Do you think we could send a message through the stream? I mean a personal message, since those don't go through normally anymore.

[mincingminuet]

Maybe? We could add a personal moments section at the end, and see what happens? Like how Bob Bross used to answer fanmail at the end of his show.

[with his happy little trees.]

[spirithacker]

It's worth a shot. If it doesn't work we don't lose anything.

[Unless the stream goes down forever or something, then they would lose something.]

[mincingminuet]

Truth. Then we can try it next time you guest on the show.

Tomorrow?

[spirithacker]

Tomorrow. Do you have anybody you want to shout out to?

[It's her stream, so it's only fair she gets first pick.]

[mincingminuet]

Vaan, mostly.

You?

[spirithacker]

Nobody who I think watches your stream.
