( the video feed cuts on and a very pretty man in traditional clothing fills the frame, a serious look in his eyes. )

For one day only, I am benevolently offering my services as a seer, so to speak.

You see, I can glimpse into the future in short bursts and divine what awaits you. The spirits are restless and have compelled me to offer up my services, free of charge, to all who may desire them.

So please, supply your name and your favorite fruit and allow me to read your future.

( this, of course, has all been a lie. but damn does it sound convincing and very prettily and eloquently spoken. )

[What is he trying now. Fiance!!]

Very well, I will try. I like many kinds of fruit...let's go with jackfruit.

[yumenope]

( your fiance is problematic, sorry. )

A harrowing choice, my fiancé. Are you certain you would like to hear the result?

[hoasen]

[D-dramatic! Fiance what!!!]

Well then my...uh, beloved, what is the result? I am prepared.

[yumenope]

( one day he won't indulge in this ridiculous lie. one day. )

A jackfruit stands for a moment of indecision, a fork in the road. A decision will need to be made soon that will have a great impact on those around you.

[hoasen]

[And what day will THAT DAY BE.]

...I suppose I was unsure what kind of fillings of mooncake I had to make for others.

[yumenope]

( a day ending with Y )

...You made mooncakes?

[hoasen]

[HMMMMMMM.]

I did! I want to give you one as well, so when you are available I wish to meet up with you.

[After his fortunetelling, she figures.]

[yumenope]

Then I suppose now would be a good time to say all of that just now was a lie.

( WITH A SMILE OF COURSE.... )

[hoasen]

[HE SMILES NOW AND SAYS IT'S A LIE.]

Gentaro!! [GOSH.] Are you saying it's a lie to get a mooncake or refuse it?

[yumenope]

The fortune telling is a lie.

( a bit calmer: )

I'm free whenever is most convenient for you.

[hoasen]

Aha, well, now that I am not completely burdened by indecision? I am available now, if you would like.

[yumenope]

Then I am as well. Where is best for you?

[hoasen]

If we could sneak food into a cafe...or the park where we can eat outside, if we bring a little extra!

[yumenope]

Extra? ( for what.... )

[hoasen]

Extra, like tea. Since it will go well with mooncake. [If they don't have drink because they're not at the cafe, they could always bring their own! She'd brew it if need be.]

[yumenope]

Tea would be a good choice, yes.

We will certainly have to do that.

[hoasen]

Alright! So, shall we pick a place?
