[Event Post] General Interaction

[longingfreesia]

*Kotori is sat at a table outside a cafe in the Domino City Plaza with a cup of coffee set in front of her.
Maybe she arranged to meet you here for a chat.
Maybe you were in the area, spotted her and have come over to say hi.
Or maybe you've come for a drink yourself, but the cafe is incredibly busy and the only free seat is at Kotori's table.

Whatever the situation, Kotori is free for a chat about anything!*

*Kotori helps her up to her feet and guides her over to the table she was sat at.*

You can sit here for a moment, if you'd like.

[wherethemiceare]

I-if it's not too much of a bother. I'd hate to be interrupting you.

[longingfreesia]

It's not a bother at all.

I'm Mizuki, Kotori, by the way!

[wherethemiceare]

::Sitting herself down, rubbing her head embarrassed.::

Katherine McDonald. But everyone besides my girlfriend calls me Kitty.

[longingfreesia]

It's really nice to meet you, Kitty.

I see you're a student at Duel Academy. Osiris Red dorm, right?

[wherethemiceare]

::She seems impressed you're being nice off the bat.::

Yeah. Mostly 'cuz I'm not great at practicals.

Teachers get mad I skip steps or oversimplify stuff.

[longingfreesia]

Dueling practicals?

Hm. I guess practising against different people might help? When I was first learning, I used to come here to the plaza and I could always find someone to practise against. They'd usually be pretty helpful and tell me where I went wrong or what I could do better.

[wherethemiceare]

No. Like Japanese, History, Math...

The written practicals.

I'm kinda clumsy at Dueling too.

[longingfreesia]

I see.

What about them do you struggle with? Do you have trouble with the language? From your name, I assume you're from overseas.
Otherwise, if you need extra help understanding things and tutoring, it'll be available to you. Just contact someone named 'Bright'. As long as she's still there at the Academy, she can hopefully help you with some tutoring.

[wherethemiceare]

California.

And the problem is I'm too good at them to the point I, um, I think the term is uh. Horseshoe effect? I go around to the point of being dumb. It's hard to explain.

[longingfreesia]

I'll admit I don't quite understand, but I'm sure you'll find a solution to it.

[wherethemiceare]

Thanks.

So. Um. Who are you, Miss Nice Lady?

[longingfreesia]

Mizuki, Kotori.

I live here in Domino City with my partner, Tsukumo Yuma. He actually went to Duel Academy and was in Osiris Red too, before he graduated. Now he is part of the Super Junior League.

As for me, I run my own small fashion designing business.

[wherethemiceare]

... Huh, my girlfriend's part of a supernatural investigating family.

Is doing the designing of fashion hard?

[longingfreesia]

Supernatural investigating family? That sounds like a pretty exciting occupation for them to have.

Well, it's like any creative job really. You just have to let your imagination go wild and keep up the flow. Some ideas pan out and others don't. I can't let it discourage me when things don't go quite t plan.
And creator's block can happen from time to time.
But I've trained hard in both the designing and creating of my outfits and the particular designs I tend to do I have a keen interest in.

[wherethemiceare]

It wasn't quite as much and then uh. Monsters becoming easily visible made them a lot more in depend. ... And speaking of all this jobs stuff: I think I wanna entertain kids.

[longingfreesia]

That's such a wonderful job to be thinking of!
I know working with children can be exhausting, but it'd also be incredibly rewarding!

Honestly, if I hadn't been able to pursue fashion designing, I probably would have gone for a career with young children as a second choice.

[wherethemiceare]

Not like a teacher or anything, but like maybe a TV Show Host? An actor? Maybe a Duelist for kids? I dunno, I'm not really that smart at knowing how all this stuff works... Eheh...

[longingfreesia]

Oh, I see!
Hmn, I guess the best thing to do is to research into the types of entertainer you can be for children.

A children's TV show host or an actor for children's shows would need to probably look into things such as TV production, acting, drama ect.

For dueling... well, there is Entertainment Dueling. My friend, Sakaki Yuya, might be able to give you more advice on that, but you could use it to entertain children at events or parties.

[wherethemiceare]

Huh! I hadn't thought of that. Well, I did, but I wasn't sure if it'd go well...?

[longingfreesia]

I think Entertainment Dueling would go pretty well with it. Even if you don't use an action field, you could use props instead. You could even put on an act and maybe write duel scripts to follow.

Guess it depends on the angle you want.

The idea definitely has potential though!

If you'd like to talk to Yuya, I can give you his contact details. He might be able to advise you on both Entertainment Dueling and also the work that goes into planning out events, since he used to plan the events and parties at the Academy.

[wherethemiceare]

A-actually, I think I'm co-event planner at the Academy with a girl named uh. Trena?

She's kind of a flake and my club keeps me busy... ehehehe....

[longingfreesia]

With Trena...?
Ah, yeah, she can be like that. I don't even remember the last time I saw her.

Well... *She takes out a notepad and a pen from her bag and scribbles something down, before tearing the paper out and handing it over.*

This is how you can get in contact with Yuya, if you decide to ask him about any of this stuff.

[wherethemiceare]

::Takes it.::

Thank you, miss. I'll try and avoid taking up any more of your time, ehehe.

[longingfreesia]

It's no problem! It's been a pleasure talking to you.

Good luck with everything.

[wherethemiceare]

Same.

::Gets up, and stretches, before strutting off, surprised how nice that demon lady was.::
