INTERVENTION

Who: Nano Shinonome, Yukiko Amagi, and LITERALLY EVERYONE NANO HAS EVER TALKED TO.
Where: Shinonome Lab, Pisces District
When: Saturday, June 22nd
Summary: Yukiko has lost a lot of friends recently and is in danger of becoming a hikkikomori, so Nano's luring her out to a surprise party to try to get her to meet new people.
Warnings: Hopefully none.  Please don't blow up Nano's house, guys.

[Being the rather conscientious sort, Nano generally tries not to lie about things, especially to her friends.  But she's very worried about Yukiko, one of her very first friends in the city and the first one to reassure her that it was all right to be true to herself and others about what she was.  She's a very special and irreplaceable friend to Nano, and one that she's been seeing progressively less and less of as Yukiko's own friends began disappearing from the city in recent weeks.

Nano's worried, and that's why this time she's going to forgive herself just one little white lie for the sake of her friend's happiness.  She's invited Yukiko over to her house for afternoon tea, but what's actually waiting behind the front door of Shinonome Lab is a full-blown party.  There's tea, yes, but also cake, cookies, rice balls, a nice ripe summer watermelon, and other refreshments for everyone to enjoy.  And she's invited everyone she knows to come cheer Yukiko up.

It's a bit of deception she'll apologize for later, but Nano knows what it's like to feel lonely, and the one thing she's confident about is that the way to fix loneliness isn't to isolate oneself from people to avoid getting hurt again, but rather to open up and meet new friends.  For all of Hinoto-Ri's problems and dangers, there are a lot of great people living here, and Nano hopes that she can show Yukiko that and get her out of her room and socializing again.]


((OOC: This is basically just an all-purpose mingle log at Nano's house.  Assume that there's standard party fare around, and everybody feel free to tag each other as you please.  Nano will point Yukiko out to anyone who doesn't know her and make an effort to have her feel included, strongly encouraging people to at least introduce themselves to her.  If you're at the party, assume Nano has told you she's putting it on for a friend who's feeling lonely because her friends went away, and she wants to introduce her to some new ones.))

And now, Desco is just going to stare at Nano, tail wagging, until she actually eats the candy.

"Potato chips!"

Be thankful it wasn't caterpillar eggs or something.

Desco ignores that, mostly because she's not really interested in knowledge for knowledge's sake (despite being a teacher) or really people in general (despite being at a party with a theme of 'meeting random people is fun!').

What she will do, however, is float over to the refreshment table and get something to drink. And because she likes you, she'll actually float back over with a second cup of tea, because that is one salty candy bar.

"Here you go!"

Instead of drinking her tea, Desco just sort of...stares at Nano for a while.

"Desco isn't sure how to pigeonhole you, Miss Nano."

Desco crosses her arms over her chest and looks thoughtful.

"Desco already has a Big Sis, and you're too young to be Desco's Aunt, so what does Desco call you?"

"But if Desco doesn't have a name only she can call you, it's like saying that you're not under her protection!"

Wide golden eyes stare at Nano.

"And then nobody will know that Desco will tear off their skulls if they hurt you!"

Aww...

"Can Desco at least bite them?"
tyrantball: (Bzuh)

Desco just sort stares blankly.

"...Desco doesn't think that's possible."

You know. Because of her shark teeth.
