i don't know what to put here

... Oh, yeah. It can't be a pizza zone without pizza, huh?

then, what is this place? I've never seen anything like it.

I think it's called the Renn Faire? I... don't think there are usually animals this size.

A... "Renn Faire?"

[She absolutely mangled the pronunciation. The fuck is this.]

It's like... a con but for medieval dorks instead of anime ones.

[He says this so cheerfully for what he's saying.]

[

judging from the blank look on her face, those sure were words!]

... Um... Right. A "con."

Um... A big gathering of people who really like a thing!

[Is this better?]

[Oh.

She nods, a look of understanding on her face. Better!]

Are these things common where you're from?

Not the Renn one, but lots of anime ones.

You mean, like the stuff from that store?

Yeah! I like the sports ones the best though.

Since I haven't seen one before, I'll take your word for it.

Hmm... What kinds of things do you like? There might be cons for those too.

... I like to read. And take walks when I can.

[She shrugs. Can you make a con out of that?]

Like... a literature convention maybe? I think Homare would know about those.

Who's Homare?

He's a poet in our theater company.

... I see.

[For a moment, she seems displeased — before it's gone.]

Do you get along with him?

I don't really know what he's saying, but he has tea parties and those are nice.

What, does he speak another language?

It's more like his poems are weird.

Like... Orange sunset, Burnt Tangent.
