[So many shy people, so little time. Grune has just spotted another person whose day needs brightening, and so--incoming tall gorgeous woman, Luca!

She gives him a warm, friendly smile, and says:] Hello, there! This is a nice party, isn't it?

[subsultive]

[All these people!! Luca jumps, despite the warm and friendly smile. Pretty ladies don't usually talk to him. Tonight's been a good night.]

Y-Yeah... I guess.

[lostinmyway]

[Even Grune can't miss that lackluster answer and she gives him a mildly concerned look.]

Oh, my. Is something the matter?

[subsultive]

I'm not really good with parties... That's all.

[lostinmyway]

Don't worry. [Grune gives him a reassuring smile.] Everyone here is very friendly.

[Though maybe not quite as friendly as her.]

[subsultive]

[The smile boosts his confidence, just a little, and he nods.]

All right. [...being in Luceti again sure has made him rude, hasn't it--] U-Um... I'm Luca. What's your name?

[lostinmyway]

I'm Grune! I'm very happy to meet you, Luca. [It's quite obvious she means it.]

[subsultive]

[That's a first.] The same to you. Did you enjoy the play?

[lostinmyway]

Oh, yes, it was very nice. [Even if she didn't understand it.] Did you like enjoy it, too?

[subsultive]

It was very nice and it reminds me of a play like it back on Naraka, by a man named Wilhelm Shookspears... I had his complete works and read them from time to time. [He's not big on plays, though.]

[lostinmyway]

Oh, maybe we should do one of his plays next, since you like him a lot.

[subsultive]

M-Maybe... Most of his stuff is pretty scary though. A Midwinter's Nightmare, Rothbart and Julian, Lawyers of Tenos...

[lostinmyway]

Oh, is it? I wonder if he has any happy plays.

[subsultive]

I'm not sure. There wasn't one that didn't have some element of horror in them... Even his sole comedy, The Taming of the Mouse, has it. That one has a happier end, admittedly, but...

[lostinmyway]

Then maybe we could do that one. It sounds nice.

[Oh Grune.]

[subsultive]

I-I'm not so sure about that! But... It'd probably be interesting if we do it the way they used to... All the parts were played by girls.

[There was a lot of hot girl kisses back in the day.]
