W6 💤 BALLROOM (ANTI)BLITZ

[dropoffs]

[ hello. welcome to ballroom. we really appreciate you coming!! the doors are locked and the whole gang's here. "including baiken?" yeah! senior crew as well.

the current set-up of this ballroom seems to have been split off into three separate spaces.

the first space is the party space! it…weirdly looks like what you'd almost expect from a high school prom? it's fancy decor, beautiful decorations, and all of the food and drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) you could ever want. somehow there's a purikura booth set up as well for some cute photo ops, and there are plenty of tables, chairs, and floor space for anyone who wants to dance or play party games with your friends. we have an hour, go nuts.

the second space is a little less intensive, decorated with beanbag chairs and couches. a large projection screen is on the wall to stream movies, and there are a few library books for your perusal, along with some board games. this is the zone for those looking for something a little more chill.

finally, there is a cute little glamping set-up (not entirely photo accurate) with mattresses, blankets, and pillows. you may have to share a bed with a friend, but it's better than the floor, right? stake your claim and get cozy. we're in for a long night. ]

I know. But what I said still stands. It won't hurt to delegate, if only for tonight.

[solesuccess]

[ uggggh... ]

Think you can do me a favor and make sure that everyone who's meant to be here is actually here?

[teenrebellion]

[ a vaguely amused look. ]

Don't sound so excited to take a one-night vacation, man. [ gently pats him somewhere he's not extremely hurt. ] I'll take care of it, don't worry.

[solesuccess]

[ there's a slight grin. ]

Thanks, Kazuki. If anybody's acting up let me know.

[teenrebellion]

If anyone's acting up, I can handle it on my own. Who do you think I am?

[solesuccess]

Oh, I never said I was going to deal with it. That's definitely all on you tonight. I'd just like to know.

[teenrebellion]

Ah. So you're just being nosy.

[solesuccess]

[ a little shrug and a smile. ]

I'm on bedrest. What else am I supposed to do?

[teenrebellion]

[ very seriously: ]

I'll be sure to report back with every scrap of the latest gossip on the ship. We can't let you lie around and be bored.

[solesuccess]

[ equally serious: ]

Thank you. It's incredibly important to my healing process.

[teenrebellion]

I understand. [ nods sagely.

and then cracks into a grin again a moment later. ]

...Seriously, though. Just have a little fun tonight. That's part of what this whole thing is about, isn't it?

[solesuccess]

I guess I would be a hypocrite if I didn't allow myself to try and enjoy this after making this a whole thing. [ he says, as someone who is not always great at just being loose about things. ] But yeah. That was kind of the entire point. I won't deny that.

[teenrebellion]

You totally would be. But don't worry, that's what friends are for - reminding you to chill once in a while.

[solesuccess]

Fair enough. I suppose I'd be hopeless without people like you. [ this is only like half a joke, oops. ]

[teenrebellion]

How lucky for you that you've found me, then.

[solesuccess]

Thank you, Kazuki, my savior.

[teenrebellion]

I do my best.

[solesuccess]

You do know you are actually doing pretty great on that front, right?

[teenrebellion]

[ a pause as he coughs a little. ]

I'm just used to it, that's all. Got a lot of experience.

[ akito always needed the reminders, too. ]

[solesuccess]

[ hum. ]

That's both a good and a bad thing, I'm guessing. [ good thing because kazuki knows what he's doing. bad thing because he's had to figure it out in the first place. ] But who am I to say anything about it?

[teenrebellion]

Guess it depends on how you want to look at it. But it doesn't really matter, in the end. You're the one benefiting from it now.

[solesuccess]

Yup. Believe me, I'm aware I'm in a pretty okay position here. [ thanks for doing work for him, etc etc. ]
