Hey, that was a good first attempt! Pretty sure I've seen worse. Like... accidentally throwing the ball down a totally different lane worse.

[ alex rolls the bowling ball down the lane and hits 7 pins. not too shabby!! ]

[dendroculi]

[oh!

she claps her hands]

Wow, you got a lot of them all at once!

[camena]

[ i'm not rolling dice because i'm lazy, and as such... as soon as alex gets her ball back she gets a gutter ball.

and then just keeps talking confidently like she didn't. ]

I've got a little more practice, that's all. There's a bowling alley not too far from school. We've skipped class to go bowling, like, a dozen times. [ like twice. but whatever. ]

[dendroculi]

[even with her gutter ball she still has a higher score than nahida... tch]

...you didn't get caught, did you?

[camena]

[ there is Time ]

Oh, uh, nah. They pretty much let me do whatever. [ don't worry about it.

anyway ]

On weekend nights they turn on black lights so everything's glowing and neon. I wonder if they do that here.

[dendroculi]

That would be interesting to see...

[



the way they have no way of knowing today is a saturday. help. anyway, i also no longer feel like rolling dice so nahida rolls her ball down the lane and knocks down five pins.]

[camena]

[ yeah what the fuck day is it even ]

I could circle back around when it gets dark out. It's something to do. [ she's not exactly on a strict schedule, here. ]

[dendroculi]

Would you mind if I came with you? I'd like to see it for myself if it happens.

[camena]

Sure. Well, obviously I would have come running to tell you anyway, but—yeah. Easier to just check together.

It can be like a... Evening debriefing after the day.

[dendroculi]

Yes. And if it's... neon, like you said, it will be fun!

[camena]

Your dress and your hair would light up.

[dendroculi]

Hehe... it would be nice to get a picture of that.

[camena]

The phones can do that. Dunno if it'd come out good with the lighting, but we could try.

[dendroculi]

I'd like that!

[camena]

You know how to take pictures with your phone? Might come in handy for other stuff, too.

[dendroculi]

Yes! I took some pictures of the city while I was up in one of those floating things earlier.

[camena]

The blimps? We can go in the blimps??

[ she missed this, oh my god ]

[dendroculi]

We can! Do you want to go try it out?

[camena]

Uh, yeah? Screw bowling, riding a blimp is way better!

[dendroculi]

[away from the bowling alley they go then!

nahida will lead the way.]

It's over this way, if I remember right!

[camena]

[ they can bowl again later! any time!! (this is also true of going on a blimp but shut up?) anyway alex is following ]

I've never been in a blimp before.

[dendroculi]

I hadn't either, before trying it here. It was a lot of fun!

[camena]

Do they have blimps where you're from?

[ fantasy blimps? ye olde blimps? ]

[dendroculi]

No... but they have Slime Balloons. They don't go as high up, though.

[camena]

... Slime?
