[tipsygnostalgia]

So who here would class themselves as a 'Wizard' and is interested in a fantastic creation known as Wiz-Con?

[Because this 16 year old sure does want to lure you all to her apartment.]

[An edit is tagged on five minutes later:]

People who are mages or sorcerers or any other type of magical talent also count!!

He's the other guy from my world. You'd know him if you saw him - brown hair, a scar, and his face always looks like this.

[She's fairly good at Squall impersonations by now, so her lineface is pretty much perfect.]

[tipsygnostalgia]

[Roxy laughs again at that.] Mister Life of the party, huh?

[unlikelyrebel]

Hey, someone has to hold up the walls or the room might collapse.

[Rinoa takes a second to scrunch her face up. Linefacing like Squall just felt so unnatural. Yuck.]

[tipsygnostalgia]

Poor guy. Hey- are you going to the mask ball thing? Maybe you don't know about it 'cause of just getting here, but there's on e in a few weeks.

[unlikelyrebel]

There's a ball? [She does like dances, this is news.] You're right, I didn't know about it.

[Then her face falls, because she's pretty transparent.]

But I don't have anything to wear.

[Roxy, how does she shop in this world?? No one's really told her about this stuff.]

[tipsygnostalgia]

I'm sure you can find something here! There are shops in this place with various stuff- I mean you're not gonna find a department store or anything but you can find good clothes.

My friend made this totally hot dress for me, but I think she's all booked up with other requests right now.

[unlikelyrebel]

I'm not sure how far the money they've given me will go, but it can't hurt to look.

[She's never had to particularly worry about money before, this is such a weird state of being.]

Think you could point me in the store direction?

[tipsygnostalgia]

Well.. if you find something but don't have enough, maybe I could lend you a bit for it or something..?

[Neither has Roxy, which is why she's a little frivolous with it now.]

There's a list, I'll send it to you right now!

[unlikelyrebel]

I'll see what I can do, but I'd rather not have to. Thanks Roxy.

[Sure, she hasn't always been rolling in money since she's got family issues, but she's always been able to make due before. Or at least already owned the appropriate clothing for a given situation if nothing else.]

Thanks!

Hey, what sort of dress code does this ball have? I mean should I be getting a dress or something a little fancier or what?

[tipsygnostalgia]

Well I'm wearing a dress, and several of the clothing shops and stuff are making masks I think?

Do you wanna see mine?

[Tough you are seeing it anyway- it's this navy blue and black dress she holds in her hands.]

[unlikelyrebel]

So just a normal nice dress, not anything too fancy then. And I'll have to get a mask too, got it.

Of course I do!

[She studies the dress for a moment, head tilting as she considers it.]

And a friend made that for you? Lucky! She's really good.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Yeah! Her name's Kanaya and she's sooo good at this sort of stuff. She made my date's suit too, I haven't seen it yet but she said we match so I bet that looks really cool too.

[unlikelyrebel]

If I ever get the chance to talk to her, I'll have to tell her I think she's awesome.

[Oooh now that sounds interesting.]

Your date, huh? Tell me about them?

[Gossip about her new world, yesss.]

[tipsygnostalgia]

Well~ His name's Eridan and he was helping me with learning how to use my weapon.. and then he asked me out?

He's kind of.. hard to get along with. Actually he's probably the type to be stood near your friend linefacing whilst were off dancing and having fun, really.

[unlikelyrebel]

So you bonded over your weapon? [Which she's not going to think to ask about.] That sounds sweet, maybe even a little romantic.

[She can't really pull that card with Squall though, since he'd just look at her like a moron and then remind her that she already knows how to use her blaster edge just fine.]

You know? I'm not going to let him completely off the hook, but that can be arranged. It might be easier on us if he's anything like Squall.

[tipsygnostalgia]

I guess it... does sound a little romantic when I say it that way, doesn't it?

[You may be the only one to say such a thing though Rinoa, literally everyone else has more or less told her to dump him asap]

Man what is it dudes? Why are almost all of them so anti-fun?

[unlikelyrebel]

Just a little.

[She has the perk of not knowing him, so she can get away with this.]

Sometimes I think it's just a guy thing.

[tipsygnostalgia]

Pretty much! I only know one guy who loves to have fun. He's not here though unfortunately.

[Sigh]

[unlikelyrebel]

I know two. Neither of them are here. Maybe it's a conspiracy! Bring the fun girls and the serious guys.

[She's not serious.]

[tipsygnostalgia]

Maybe the Initiative guys didn't want any competition.

[unlikelyrebel]

Do we see the guys from the Initiative that often?

[tipsygnostalgia]

Not that often. I mean I guess you can get in touch with them if there's something you want to know or whatever, but I haven't personally.

[unlikelyrebel]

Then I don't think they're worried about competition.

[See what she did there? She used logic! That thing certain people seem to refuse to think she has.]

[tipsygnostalgia]

Hehe, I guess not.

[Some people in these worlds just think that the ability to not be a grumpy butt means a lack of logic.]

[unlikelyrebel]

I think I'd have liked it better if your idea was right.

[Sometimes not being a grumpy butt means having lots of superior logic. People shouldn't hate on others just because they're nice, geeze.]
