Yanagi Taira shared a photo. 10/06 near Tisse

Takumi doesn't have Retrospec anymore, but he's still a good guy, hauling me over to the clinic last night. Ms. Minamoto let me stay home from school too. Sleeping in is great... Do you ever feel like the gifts you receive from Retrospec are unlucky? I picked up my first two over the week, and now the guy that I see in the fog has gone from following me to straight up trying to cut me to pieces. He has a spear. He's really fucking good at using a spear. Past self, what kind of life did you live to meet a guy like that?

[fiddlestick]

Haha, okay. Where should I meet you?

Yikes. I hope the fog goes away soon then...for everyone's sake.

[odapologist]

Hmm, how about the recreation center? It wouldn't be weird to get wet at a gym, right?

Yeah... It's probably putting a damper on nighttime activities

[ have these two ever been to a gym... real questions ]

[fiddlestick]

There's a recreation center?

[No. That answer for Elliot is a definite no.]

[odapologist]

Yes. I wanted to find a place where they had free fluffy towels.

I bring one from home if you prefer a quite place to try it though!

[fiddlestick]

Haha, fluffy towels are pretty nice.

The recreation center will be fine! I've just never been there before.

[odapologist]

Neither have I! It can be an adventure, and at least this one will hurt less. I'll admit some of these were from falling onto concrete. And a bush.

[fiddlestick]

Haha, oh no.

Don't worry! We'll make sure it's a nice, gentle adventure.

So I'll meet you there?

-> Action

[odapologist]

Sure! I'll ask my host brother for a ride, so don't worry about me.

[ I think a reasonable response to seeing recreation centers are WHY ARE THEY SO UPSCALE LOOKING? It's because they're gyms, probably, and it's Recolle which has nice looking architecture. They gotta look good for the good-looking people. Also it's thankfully not too crowded. ]

Action!

[fiddlestick]

[Because they go crazy with the fanciness and then attach it to the student fees even if they never use it. #bitterplayerwhat

Elliot will be standing out in front of it, waiting for Yanagi to come. At least he has a photo for someone to look for, and he should be easy to spot with his own carrot-top hair. He's got a violin case with him, because that's not at all weird bring to a gym no siree]

[odapologist]

Hey!

[ That carrot-top indeed makes things easier! Despite the cuts and bruises, Yanagi manages to make his way to Elliot in front of the too-fancy glorified fitness building. He only hobbles a little bit from the soreness, okay. ]

You're Elliot, right? ...Do you not have a gym bag?

[fiddlestick]

[When he hears his name, he smiles and gives a nod. Yeah, looks like guy in the photo alright]

Haha, that's me!

Annnd, no. I don't. [That requires actually working out???] This holds my staff better anyway.

[odapologist]

[ He's not a chuuni, not a chuuni... he's a respectable kid still caught up with sad reality...

But that's still really cool? Yanagi's eyes light up! ]

You're a mage, Elliot-san!

[ ...Ahem. ]

Oh, that explains the case. Can you only use magic when using a staff?

[fiddlestick]

Aha, yeah I am! Still getting used to that though...

[Because you know, suddenly becoming a wizard is weird]

No, I can do it without, but it helps a lot.

[odapologist]

Okay, good! I hope your music instrument forgives you for taking its home for this, really.

[ Secretly violins are petty and won't stand for this!!! Or maybe they're the most chill of string instruments.

Now brass, they're the true loud assholes. ]

We have good timing by the way. If we're students and have our ID's, admission is free today. We just need to find a place.

[ How many people are working out to fit into Halloween costumes? Hopefully not many. ]

[fiddlestick]

Oh! Haha, don't worry! I bought a second violin case for this! [He pats the case] There's no way I'd leave my real violin out to the elements.

[He loves his violin baby too much to do such a thing. It's his most precious item in the entire world okay]

Great! We should look for some place quiet then. Let's not draw too much attention to the magic, you know?

[odapologist]

I'm glad! The violin is nice to listen to, I wish I had the dedication to play an instrument like that.

[ He just has basic recorder skills, as is the academic standard almost. ]

Hm... I think they have rooms for like, dance and yoga lessons for outside instructors to use. Will that work?

[ Like a prepared kid who is surprisingly into this, he has a pamphlet! With a map of the rec center. The glossy color printing was also paid for by student fees. ]

[fiddlestick]

Ehe, it can take a lot of work...but it's worth it if you ever decide to learn!

[MUSIC IS THE BEST FOREVER!!!]

Oh, yeah! Those would be perfect!

[And wow, a pamphlet! Elliot will glance over at it, impressed] Wow, you really thought this out!
