006↠ ACTION

[concasse]

[It's sunny. And hot. And perhaps not the best weather to take a nap in while you're unabashedly unconscious.

... Which is too bad, seeing as Sanji's passed out under a tree located at the village's edge - clothes dirty and ruffled, no doubt collecting more dirt as he rolls in his uncomfortable slumber, the crook of his arm covering his eyes.

Go on. Wake him up. Be a good Samaritan.



And hell, even if you don't, Sanji will eventually stumble upon you -- or into you, if that's your thing. Later in the day he'll be all over the village insisting he's fine, no he's not drunk so stop trying to escort him back to bed. B| He can walk it off.]





[ooc: MALLYNAP EFFECT. Touch him and your character will share a memory with Sanji. It can be a memory of his or a memory of your character's; just specify in the subject line what you prefer. |D Any memory is free game, and the scope of it is at our discretion, but keep in mind both characters will view it until the memory ends or they escape the "boundary". (Just imagine the memory as a bubble and if a character walks far enough for whatever reason, they pop it.) Also note they're still in Luceti - no teleporting anywhere. Just assume the characters are mostly slack-jawed and staring at a tree for the duration.

I also endorse all time-breaking. Tis but a flimsy wall in our way.]

... S-so... you're famous? [That's what Sanji associates the word "idol" with: fame. Lots of it.]

[mythmaker]

[For that, she gives a wink.]

My, my...you'll find out, won't you?

[There's an announcer. A count-down, and Azusa starts to run onto the stage. Her other self doesn't notice her--rather, she can move right through her as if it were a hologram.]

It's been a while since I've been able to dance like this...I hope I don't disappoint you, Sanji.

[And that's what she does next. Her steps are almost all in-time, like she's never forgotten the dance to begin with...even after all her time in Luceti.]

My gods I just now found this in my inbox I'm so sorry D8 1/2

[concasse]

[He already knows she can't interact within the memory, and so tries to warn her before she runs off. No such luck; Azusa springs ahead and lines herself up in position, unperturbed by the fact her memory self is occupying the same space.

Then the music starts. Sanji keeps backstage, a breath away from gaping at the dance routine because... well. He is not sure what the proper reaction to this is. It's not as if he's witnessed anything like it.]

[concasse]

[Of course, by the time the girls finish up their first verse and the lights explode into a mesh of purples and pinks, Sanji's not only grinning, his foot taps to the beat outside his awareness. Near the end, he's completely given into his own enthusiasm by clapping, and at the finale he finds himself offering an applause as loud as the audience]




[ooc: I watched that like five times in a row, that was ridiculously adorable.]

[mythmaker]

[By the time it's over, Azusa has worked up a nice sweat and is waving at the fake crowd a little. She knows it's fake, though, so she turns to Sanji and starts walking back towards him. As she does, the memory begins to fade. After this was an interview, after all, and that wasn't nearly as memorable as her first show.]

Did you enjoy that, Sanji? It looks I still remember the dance, even after all of this time.

[ooc; No problem! I'm glad you enjoyed it, pff.]

[concasse]

I loved it, Azusa-chan~! Aaaaahn, so talented in ways I never knew~! [Impressed? Definitely. And he looks like he thoroughly enjoyed the show if the hearts are any indicator. Even as the stage recedes back and the setting that is Luceti returns, Sanji makes sure to burn what he can into his own memory.]

Is this what you do for a living?

[mythmaker]

My, my...that's way too much, it was a routine from very long ago... [Or. About eight months. She hasn't been a well-known idol for very long. She's going to brush it off, though, like it ain't no thang~.]

Yes, it is. I thought everyone knew by now, but maybe I haven't mentioned it much...

[concasse]

I'm sure you did, but seeing is really believing in this case.

[mythmaker]

Thank you, Sanji. Even if it was just for you, I'm thankful for being able to perform today. I don't often get the chance.

[concasse]

Oi! Maybe you could put on a show for Luceti! I bet everyone would love to see what I just did.

[mythmaker]

[She giggles.]

I already have, Sanji. You must have missed it. I hope you can come to my next one, though. It's always nice to have someone familiar in the audience.

[concasse]

I did? [Well now he just feels guilty and sad. Bad Sanji, missing a lady's concert]

Then I'll definitely make it to the next one! [He smacks a fist against his open palm] For sure!

[mythmaker]

I'll be looking forward to it, Sanji~. I'll make sure to make it an extra special show, then.
