[CONTINUE + 3] Week 1 || Act: mingle

[foundationmods]

Monday comes onto the snowy town once more, though it still looks as if it's 'night' as ever.

Then again, you are underground. That's just to be expected, considering no natural light can get down here in the first place. The Monsters around you are just as friendly as ever, despite this being your fourth 'time' trying this monday.

There doesn't seem to be many Monsters here...or at least, you think there was more before? Huh.

Well, whatever.

You still have a mission - And with three trials under your belt, you're now a little closer to figuring things out.

...How much longer will this repeat?

[Himeko is, of course - in a swimsuit, although she's completely unbothered by the potential problems that mixed bathing can have.

It's not as if she'll see anything that's such a big deal for her, anyway.]

Finally, some time to relax...

God, this is my first time being in a hot spring, too. It's kind of nice.

[le_mat]

It has a different feel than a bathhouse, huh? I haven't been in one in... almost four years now, I think?

[dereban]

I don't think I've even used a bathhouse before... but then again, I'm pretty spoiled in some ways.

[Living the middle class life.]

I'm not surprised that it's a konyoku here, though.

[le_mat]

Yeah, monsters don't really seem to care about that kinda thing.

[dereban]

Yeah...

Well - I understand why, at least. I'm not too bothered by it myself... at least, when it comes to looking.

[The other way around however is embarrassing. Himeko never said she wasn't a hypocrite.]

[le_mat]

Ah, at least with a mixed bath all the guys have their shirts off, riiiiight?

[He snickers]

This is my first time mixed though, the one in my hometown is pretty strict on that kinda thing.

1/2

[dereban]

[dereban]

... well, I mean, there is that, but.

There's nothing on a guy that I haven't seen before.

[HIMEKO????]

[le_mat]

Hmmm, true. But just because something isn't new doesn't mean it isn't nice. The girls in their suits are pretty cute too, yeah?

[dereban]

That's true.

I do think most of the girls here lean towards 'cute' though, huh...

[Like if there was a scale of cute beauty to sexy beauty, most of them would lean towards the former.]

[le_mat]

Yeah, you're not wrong.

[He siiighs]

I missed Kirijo-san, she was a beauty... Like Red but more likely to just murder you.

[dereban]

Ah, the "I wouldn't mind if she stepped on me icy beauty" type?

To be honest - I do miss one of my friends, from back home. She isn't the 'beauty' type, but she is really cute. We were kind of like two sides of the same coin because of that.

[le_mat]

Even down to using ice magic.

[That makes him turn towards her, chin in his hand]

How cute are we talking?

[dereban]

She won the Cultural Festival Beauty Pageant - she was basically known for being the 'number one most beautiful girl' in our school.

But compared to myself, let's see...

[Himeko leans back a little, sinking a bit.]

If I'm the cool, model-type beauty, she's the cute, idol-type.

[improbablenotimpossible]

[Long as nobody takes their clothes off, he's okay with the mixed baths... this means you too Gilgamesh, keep your trunks on]

I can't remember when the last time I've been in a hot spring - and it's been far too long since I've been in a Bathhouse.

[dereban]

[We are not getting blinded tonight!!!

We hope.]

Was your last time back... home?

[improbablenotimpossible]

...Yes, there's been occasions a hot spring is part of a small singularity - unfortunately, in most cases, I would be too busy at Chaldea itself to participate.

[A low sigh escapes, sounding a touch envious]

[dereban]

Ahh... that's really unfortunate.

It sounds like fun, but at the same time, the potential to be a disaster.

[oceanicbutterfly]

Right? The next bath I take is going to have a lot to live up to.

[Does that even make sense? Karen doesn't care.]

[dereban]

Do you usually take baths over showers, Karen?

[oceanicbutterfly]

Not usually, but it's nice when I have the time.

[dereban]

I suppose that's true... I prefer showers myself, personally.

[oceanicbutterfly]

There's certainly something to be said for them. I don't know, I suppose I just like having the chance to rest and relax.

[dereban]

I have my room for that... most of the time.

[oceanicbutterfly]

What happens the rest of the time?
