Entertainment for Two (Lilly)

In the expansive facilities of the Blue Light district, Milton and Anni were making their way through the area searching for the movie theater. With a small time to relax after their sparring matches earlier to hone Milton's close combat skills, Anni was being invited by a few friends of hers to go see a movie and play in the arcade later. Milton decided to come along to map the area in his mind, hopefully come across something to do in the meantime. The pink-haired girl stayed close to Milton to stay out of the way of the shifting crowds.


Now that Anni was running off to go see her eager friends, Milton decided to make his way over to the arcade and try his hand at the games around the area. Fighting games? Sure, maybe in a bit. That dancing game over there? Looks busy. Milton eventually decided on the equivalent to an air hockey table near the center of the room. He took his place at one end of the table and looked out into the crowd for a partner.

"Anyone want to play me over here?"

It had been... An odd day to say the least. The girl didn't like it all that much when things went wrong or just... Different from how she expected them to pan out. It worried her. She already got enough unneeded stress from day to day life, now she was a Seeker and lord knew that brought a whole another set of stresses and worries for her to deal with. It wasn't that she had to live up to the role of a Seeker, she could just hide herself away... Though she knew some of the others a-and she knew how much she could be of help. S-she'd feel even worse if something were to happen and she hadn't even tried to help. M-mnnnn...

Shaking her head clear, Lilly would take a step to the side of the path so that others could walk past whilst she collected herself. Thinking like this didn't help matters either. S-she just needed to learn how to calm herself down, how to relax when she had the opportunity to. Life was moving far too quickly for the Jurnil to keep up with.

After a moment, the worrisome girl would look up to take a gander at what was around her. That day she had kind of been wandering aimlessly around the commercial ward trying to get her thoughts straight. It was a nice place for that kind of thing, it was different enough from the top ward to be a fresh walk, but she still felt safe here. As she looked around, she'd notice a nearby arcade. Heh, she'd always wanted to visit an arcade when she was younger but never got the chance to. Deciding her day had been weird enough already that giving it a go would probably not lead to anything worse, she'd enter the arcade and begin casually slotting her loose change into the penny pusher machine. The young Huwnd hadn't been there long before she overheard an offer someone gave out to play air hockey with them, though despite gingerly turning her head over to look the guys way for a moment. She didn't have the courage to give a proper answer and merely kept to her machine.

A few minutes passed after Milton's invitation echoed in the hall. He stood at one end of the table, slowly realizing that he was either not loud enough or was basically ignored by the players in the area. Milton shrugged with light disappointment and flicked his paddle across the table as he made his way over to the flashing machines against the wall, taking up the penny pusher beside Lilly. Milton took a look inside the machine to determine the purpose of the game, his skin seemingly shifting like the surface of a pond as he examined the coin machine. The buildup of coins near the middle of the pushing platform could result in a chain reaction to toss rows of coins down the hatch. Milton patted his pockets only to realize he didn't have change or tokens to pop into the machine. Might as well as the person beside him, apparently a white haired creature Milton had yet to identify yet with a name.

"This setup's looking pretty good... Excuse me. Have you seen the token exchanger or something in this place? I'd need a good amount for a few of the machines around here unless they take monetary credit."

"Oh, uhh..." Lilly would jump a little at the sudden questioning thrown her way. After hearing the request before she kind of just tried to zone the rest of the world out, getting lost deep in thought about all this persona stuff and what it would mean for her. She'd already even agree'd to go out to the world they were on with Lucian, Alice, James and Cassiel as actual seekers there to help out. The idea terrified her, yet when she was asked if she was going to tag along. For some reason she just couldn't say no. The fear of them getting hurt and her not being there to help out just outweighed her own personal fear...

"Y-yeah, I think there's a place to exchange tokens near the entrance. It's, uh, it's like a big yellow booth thing." She'd reply in a timid and quite quiet voice, sharing a nervous smile with the guy as she'd nod to confirm her own words in her head. "T-though it does, does look like that could go at any moment. H-heh, I could spare you a coin, t-that is if you want. I-it could be you're lucky penny." The girl would continue, clearly stumbling over her own words in embarrassment as she presented and held up a coin to the guy if he wished to take it.
