PUBLIC CHANNEL | S2:D9 MORNING

[everybodypanic]

Wait a minute.

You mean that part about staying here and working for a year was actually true?

I thought I could just, you know, sign and leave. Like, hell no I wasn't actually gonna stay! Even if I did kind of break something.

[Jinx, that's not how magical contracts work. You really should know this by now.]

Can I get a do over?

[There's some unintelligible squeaking noises in the background. And Jinx just sighs.]

Yes, Kuro. I know this isn't the first time I've signed without reading.

[If only you could hear how hard she is eyerolling right now.]

Who asked you?

Comments

[everybodypanic]

So like, a whole year?

Really?

[What do you a think a year means, Jinx.]

What if I already have important stuff to do back home? I got others waiting for me, you know. And school to go to... I guess.

[Bleh.]

[insidescoop]

Of course!

And it's like I said! You go back to the same moment you left~ It'll be like you were never gone at all.

[Think of the opportunities Jinx~]

[everybodypanic]

You mean...

I'm a time traveler now?

[fortuneglass]

Exactly~!

[THAT IS ABSOLUTELY WHAT SHE IS SAYING isn't it great jinx]

[everybodypanic]

Sweet.

So what's there to do around here for fun?

[This is your chance. Don't blow it.]

[fortuneglass]

Ooooh there's lots~ It really depends on what you like most...

There's the lake, and the hot springs, and the training yard-the obstacle course can get really intense, especially on 'Death March', but then there's just the rides here, we get discounts after all and that's just IN the Carnival so-

[Quick cut her off save yourself-]

[everybodypanic]

Go back to the part about Death March.

[fortuneglass]

Oohoh! so that sort, then...

[Ahem.] It's the hardest setting on the obstacle course! Floors and walls moving, fire everywhere... ...and I mean really everywhere! It ends in you with an explosion at your back, I think...

Peridot really knew what she wanted for this...

[everybodypanic]

That all sounds pretty awesome if you ask me.

[fortuneglass]

Then you'll probably love it!

[Uh-] ...I should probably actually tell you where it is.

[everybodypanic]

How hard can it be to find? Just look for the fires and explosions, right?

[fortuneglass]

Well that's only happening if the course is running on that setting right?

You have to be there, and hitting the on button first!

[everybodypanic]

I guess. Does it like, not get used much on that setting?

[fortuneglass]

Not really! At least not all at once. I know some of the Nightrunners definitely do, but the jobs under them are part-time; so a lot of them are busy with their other jobs too... ....You just got here though, and acts are already starting, so I don't think Joker will expect you to be working just yet.

I mean, I don't even have your measurements let alone a costume, even if you had an act..!!

[She's getting off topic.] Erm-

Right, anyway. I can show you where it is.

[everybodypanic]

Yeah, sure. Sounds cool.

We can talk about all that other stuff, too.

[fortuneglass]

Ooh~! Wonderful! [Jinx what have you signed up for-]

In that case...hmmm. Where are you, right now? It's probably easier for me to go to you rather than send you somewhere else...

[everybodypanic]

I dunno, I just got here.

There's a rollercoaster or something, yeah? Let's meet there.

>>> ACTION!

[fortuneglass]

[Jinx- Jinx she wanted to know what you were standing beside-

Ah whatever, she figures it's better than nothing.] That works~!

I will see you there soon!

[And Indeed, she will-in all her lava-lampish glowing glory. Ta-daaaaah.]

[everybodypanic]

[Make it quick, Carly. Jinx has a horrible attention span and she's more likely to actually catch a ride on the rollercoaster instead of just keep waiting by it.

Whatever, she'll give you some time.

She's just hanging around, hands behind her head.]

[fortuneglass]

[It is, naturally, only once she gets there that she realizes something.] ...Ah.

...I forgot to ask what she looks like... [This. This is a Problem. For a while, she tries to pick out anyone in the roller-coaster crowd who might be who she's looking for. But then she realizes-they're new! They probably look no different!!] Aaaahahahhaaaa...

[.......click, goes the radio-] ......So...I'm here! But ahaaaaa...I forgot something~!

..............What do you look like?

[everybodypanic]

Just look for the really long red hair.

You can't miss it, seriously.

[fortuneglass]

Red hair....

...OH!! OHHH!~ There you are~~

[She can probably hear that both Through the radio and In The Air, lovely-

At least the radio clicks off though.] Okay~! That's fixed then~ Nice to meet you~!

[everybodypanic]

Hey. What's-

[Uh, okay. You were totally not what she was expecting to see.]

Up?

[insidescoop]

....You are? [WILD GUESS-]

I mean, we're here to show you the training yard's obstacle course, so.... [HOPEFULLY GOOD GUESS????]

[everybodypanic]

Now that's what I'm talking about!

[She puts her arm around Carly's shoulders. Having no concept of personal space.]

Let's see it.
