Video, un: Ordinary

[Set a few days after the guild halls opened up and the initial excitement on that has died down.]

I think there's a lot of anxiety in the air right now, which only stands to reason; We're in a new and strange place against our will with a bunch of strangers. Anyone would be kinda grumpy in a situation like that, right? I don't think we can really do anything about being lost in a strange new place right now, but we CAN do something about being strangers!

Look all I'm saying is there's nothing that will break the ice with new people better than getting outrageously drunk together and making a ton of bad decisions. We will form an unbreakable bond together, forged of hangovers and foggy memories. We can start at the Summer Guild Hall and end up who knows where.

No, seriously, I'm asking. Who knows of some good taverns around Nightwake? I bet there's a bunch in a city like this.

Ah...

[ This is the face of a young man who sort of wants to protest that he's under the legal drinking age back home 20 in japan, 21 in britannia but knows it deeply does not matter to anyone, ]

[untilidie]

Will you be dropping by?

[He always seemed so straight laced! Was Suzaku secretly a party animal?

No, but in her mind, Marisa imagined he was.]

[kishin]

Will the bars here really serve us? [ Half a beat of realizing she might not be his age, some people here are immortal for some reason. ] Ah — I'm only eighteen.

[untilidie]

Oh hey I'm older than you.

[She's just very small.]

I think the whole concept of a "drinking age" is kinda stupid but don't worry, they'll serve eighteen year olds!

[kishin]

[ Flusters visibly because he knows. He knows it's stupid. He tried to phrase it in less of an... overly concerned about the law back home way. Muted: ]

It's never made sense that we can serve in the military and die before we can drink.

[untilidie]

I've only ever been there briefly, but from what I've heard, the world outside my home has a whole lotta rules about things it probably doesn't need.

[Debatable.]

But we're both old enough even by the local rules so no problem.

[kishin]

[ That phrasing does visibly give Suzaku some pause, but he hitches his smile back up for her. ]

Oh? Is it sixteen here?

[untilidie]

[beat]

I'm nineteen.

[kishin]

—I know. I mean, I know you're older than me. But I've... I mean other countries back home...

[ Shrinking. ]
