Hello Autumn,

Regarding the Paper Bag Man, well, I suppose there are worse disguises.
I'm sure he had his reasons.
I'd mostly be judging if he did the same thing more than once.

Anyways, if I'm able to grab another ticket or the rush slows down, we can plan a day to watch it together.
As long as our jobs in our respective clans don't hold us back too.

[rainswords]

Good day Midnightmocha,

In reference to that disguise, well, there are all manner of people. So not everyone considers every factor, in that situation, there was something more pressing than the conspicuous nature of the choice. But now you have me wondering. I should have asked if he has opted for that mask before.

Then I'll wait to hear back from you once more, I am not sure about the current situation with the tickets at this point but here is hoping we can find a resolution. Now as for time and date, I can open up my schedule to favor an esteemed friend.

cursed city; mid-june

[nerine]

Hi Autumn
sorry you haven't heard from me in a while
And well
I guess that movie will have to wait
Weather's crazy after all

Yours truly,
Midnightmoca

Greetings Midnightmocha,

There is no need for an apology, this city has a way of allowing time to get away from people despite the long expanses of monotony. Of course, they have to be broken by oddities, like the weather you mentioned. I do suppose the movie will wait, there will be some other opportunity I'm sure. Fortunately, there are books to keep people entertained. Although with this type of rain I do worry they may become irreparably damaged if I am not careful.

Hopefully, you had a chance to enjoy that artificial beach and the warm weather created within that space before everything became awry. You know considering what transpired after the Night Festival, I do hope it isn't the norm for odd events to occur after any celebration.

Your friend,
Autumn

[nerine]

Yeah, I was able to enjoy myself before all this.
Kind of a terrible idea to wear a white dress in retrospect.

Stay safe, okay?

— Midnightmocha

[rainswords]

To be honest no matter what color clothing you wear nothing is truly sade. Unless you immediately attempt to wash your garments and even then.

But I'm safe here. Hope you are too. I guess there is no going outside until this ends.

Well, while we're trapped indoors I suppose this is a good opportunity to ask a question regarding a song. Perhaps you have heard of it? It's called Walk this Way. I don't understand... all of it, all of it. If you happen to be familiar with it would you care to explain the lyrics?

— Autumn

[nerine]

Walk this Way?
By Run DMC and Aerosmith??
Well, I won't ask how you heard of it, but verse wise
Hmmmmmm

[She has to look up the lyrics it's been a while.]

Alright
I reread the lyrics
I'm not sure if I should be explaining any of that to you without feeling like a criminal.

Can I recommend some better songs with better lyrics?

— Midnightmocha

[rainswords]

I don't mind recounting how I came to hear that song. You see, one particular night while I was working at the karaoke place there was a customer who wished for us to sing a duet. That just happens to be the song they picked. We're both curious to know the meaning of the lyrics and I promised to provide that information.

That's all.

Why would feel as if you committed some offense? I think I'm missing something here. Shall I make my inquiry somewhere else? As for recommendations, I am always open to hearing any from you.

— Autumn

/head in hands

[nerine]

Well
Okay
I'll bite
it's not like I'm going outside too much





It's just describing sexual relations with women
I think I don't need to explain anymore than that
please

— Midnightmocha

/drowns

[rainswords]

If you're not comfortable you really don't have to explain.
But it is true, none of us are really going anywhere. Not completely unfortunate.





I see.
You're correct, there is no need to explain further.
It's not information I'll need.
I mean I won't know any women
I'll just stop





I am going to go drown myself in my friend's sink now.

do you think god looks down at us and thinks wtf

[nerine]

well, I'm a woman for the record
Just make sure with the sink it's actually running water and not blood

If it makes you feel better I know plenty of songs that aren't as inappropriate.
Mostly.
I'll be able to choose ones that won't make you want to drown, is what I'm saying.

that or god is enjoying some 🍿

[rainswords]

[ That's not what he meant in regards to being acquainted with women. It's much more embarrassing, definitely a polite way of putting things but he won't be explaining. He doesn't need to dig himself further. He is going to leave that alone. ]

For that the rain needs to filter through to the water reservoirs. Wherever those might be. Although I'm not completely certain what the substance falling from the sky truly is.

It's fine. I'm sure there are worse things to be found than a song with an odd choice in lyrics.
I can't believe I sang that.
But if you want to recommend anything go ahead, my friend and I don't have much to do.
I can only read to him for so long.

"oh those silly punks and their rap music"

[nerine]

Ok, let's see
No sex songs
Though I have plenty of those, I think I can come up with something less raunchy

[There's a long pause between her previous message, but this time she replies back within the day.]

This song is fun. Playful even. Think of it as a rebuttal to "Walk This Way," if you try thinking too deeply about it. Probably just me making it up.

Here's another; literally about just having the time of your life. Oldie, but a goodie where I'm from.

And if you're feeling spiteful... Well, there's the uncensored version, but I'm trying to be appropriate.

gift wrap...

[rainswords]

Right now it would be for the best if I avoid such music.
I am not exactly alone here and honestly, I don't have much experience with explicit material.
Although I've considered becoming acquainted with it given the environment.

[ Once he receives the list of songs, he looks them over but he won't listen to them immediately. Rather he takes in the notes she left for each one. ]

I'll have a listen as soon as I can but I think I need to put down my phone. I'm almost positive my friend has been staring at me this whole time.

[nerine]

Is that so?
Does your friend think you're acting suspicious?

[rainswords]

I asked him if he thinks I'm acting suspiciously.
He says no.

[nerine]

I mean, he's saying that
But why would he be staring then?
🤔🤔🤔

[rainswords]

Because I'm keeping him company?
Believe me when I say this, he isn't one to lie and I would know if he ever blundered through the attempt.

[nerine]

Tell him I said hi then :)

[oh monts you joker you]

[rainswords]

He says hi back.
