Video + Voice | UN: Serenity
[ For a good while, all anyone's going to see is the cityscape of the second district. There's clear movement as the scene seems to move and shake with what seems to be the sounds of footsteps in the background. ]
Hello? Hi, my name is—oh no, the video is on backward, uh—
[ There is a small pause, and after much tinkering, the feed switches over to the front camera. Crisis adverted? On the screen is a teenage girl, looking barely legal with a strange hairstyle. She has on a pretty friendly smile, with all things considered, and doesn't seem entirely too distraught. ]
—there we go! Hello again, sorry for the trouble! My name is Usagi Tsukino and I'm new to the city. So far, I've found a place to live, I think, and I'm just trying to familiarize myself with the place so it's easier to navigate.
[ She looks pensive for a moment. ]
Or perhaps more information on the place? How do things work around here? Anything is fine. [ She pauses for a moment. ] Oh, maybe a place to get food? I haven't seen anywhere that resembles a restaurant where I am, but I'm not entirely sure.
Sorry for all the questions, and thank you for your time!
[ The video feed switches off, but it seems like she somehow didn't close the voice transmission along with the video. ]
Okay...where am I, ooooh, I could really go for a large banana split sundae right about now...where does a girl get some ice cream around here?
...wait, didn't I walk past that place earlier? Huh? Why is this still on? Oh no.....!
[ And the voice transmission cuts off here. ]

[Will he confirm or deny that he was hungry that time, too... Nope, he has to be at least a little annoying. It's his natural big brother energy.]
It's a big place with plenty to explore, so I haven't seen all there is to see, yet... I'd like to create some kind of big map—bigger than the one on this device. [what is a cell phone really] But that's a long-term project.
If you want some company, I could come find you again. I'm not busy with anything else.
no subject
Well, it's good to know that you can make jokes. [ Heh. They'll get along just fine. ]
Yeah, talk about a big place. I think I walked by a place twice earlier, kind of bizarre, actually. But creating a map is a really smart idea! [ He has a plan and a goal, at least.
And then: ] Oh! Having company is nice, thank you! I was just going to go around, to look for stuff and visit the welcome diner and maybe locate some shops with necessities, perhaps you can even note that down on your map project.
I would say I'll treat you to food but the food is free...
no subject
I'll think of it as a treat in spirit. Getting some extra exploration in for my map is always a good use of my time.
[He says this like he's been doing this for more than a day... it's fine. He's gotten used to having people to run around with and doesn't want to skulk around alone, but like, can he say that. No, never. So it's Mapmaking Time, yeah...]
Why don't we have a look around, and you can tell me about walking by the same place twice.
no subject
Hey, that works! It's the thought that counts, right? ]
Well. we've got that cut out for us, I think! I plan to visit all the restaurants and all the dessert places, so you will never have a shortage of those—and also, think I might hit up some of the shops, too! You'll never get rid of me—
[ He just had to point out her poor sense of direction, didn't he!! ]
EIZENN!!! That's not funny!! I only made a few wrong turns okay...
no subject
Like, he is thinking of making a big map, so these jokes are just going to make themselves the more time they spend together... look forward to it.]
Let's start keeping a tally—if you can make one less wrong turn, I'll bake you something.
[Eh? Eh? Better than the mysteriously empty restaurants, yeah?]
no subject
Also, never underestimate the power of her love of food—once food is promised, she will do everything in her power to make sure she gets it! ]
You got yourself a deal! I'm going to hold you to that promise, okay? [ And then: ] Oh and, I want a strawberry shortcake, okay?
[ She is going to put in her full effort. ]
no subject
[This thing about his Bad Luck is a true thing with plenty of backup, but maybe it just sounds like a joke, like he intends. Maybe he's just going to bake her a cake regardless... It's probably that one.]
Whenever you're ready to head out, just let me know where you meet you. I'll bring a shopping bag.
no subject
[ Well, she's pretty sure they can work out when they come across a bakery of some kind. Or maybe one of the restaurants will have it? It's something worth thinking about, of course. ]
Eek, I don't want a cake that's gunk on the inside... [ She thinks hard for a moment, and then comes up with a great idea: ] We can look for a restaurant or bakery of some kind after we meet up, how about that? If nothing else, I'm pretty sure we can ask around to see if someone knows anything about a high-quality oven!
[ Either way, it's probably something on her list, anyway, to find a good bakery. ]
Oh, sure! I'm already heading out! We can meet at, uh, the diner or maybe the shopping mall...definitely not the garden, though! We're not going there again!
