[ so sometime after the npcs came to be useless and set things on fire

sasazuka will walk into the rec room, looking at the also useless phone that he was given. hello. ]

[commedia]

[A clown is.....rolls dice, checking out the Dance Dance Revolution machine! Not dancing yet, but these songs sure are catchy.]

Mmm. [And...oh! Someone is here.] Wait a second. That hair...

[GUESS WHO'S JUST STARING, NOW]

[dotcom]

[ uh

well this is weird. ]

What.

[commedia]

[A long pause...]

[And then the man breaks into a peal of laughter, hiding their mouth behind a sleeve.]

Ah! Hahaha! He was right! It is a little like seaweed!

[dotcom]

[ the speed of which sasazuka's opinion on limbo just plummeted. ]

It's not.

[commedia]

...Ah, apologies, apologies. I didn't mean to poke fun.

[And a polite bow.]

Your friend Mineo told me about you. It seems your hair is very unique.

[dotcom]

It's just my hair. And I wouldn't call him my friend.

[ he is more like a fly that you can't get out of your house ]

[commedia]

He said you manage to call him an idiot at least eight hundred times a day.

[you two and your mutual bullying]

[dotcom]

Maybe if he managed to get his intelligence up to above average, I wouldn't have to call him an idiot.

[ it's fine. mineo deserves to be bullied. ]

[commedia]

Oh, don't you think that's too mean? Mmm. He seems like he's trying his best...but ah, what do I know? He does make rather good ramen by scratch.

[And their smile widens.]

Anyways, I have been rude. The name is Ashiya Douman. You're...Takeru, right?

[dotcom]

Takeru Sasazuka, yes.

[ so this is ashiya... hm... interesting. ]

[commedia]

A pleasure to meet your acquaintance.

[They gesture to his phone.]

Have you been...what is that word. Texting?

[dotcom]

No. I haven't texted anyone.

[ he doesn't want to talk to any of you people........ ]

w1 post execution

[commedia]

[Oh, someone else is in the planetarium. Douman glances up at the stars, twinkling away, before glancing back to Takeru with a light smile.]

...Here to clear your mind?

[dotcom]

[ oh it's the giant clown man. ]

It's one of the quieter spots.

[commedia]

It is. Its why I'm here as well.

[They glance up.]

You know, onmyouji have to learn astronomy as part of their work for divination and the like. So seeing all this is somewhat nostalgic.

[dotcom]

[ he follows their gaze. ]

Are you actually Ashiya Douman?

[commedia]

...

[That question...]

[It makes their smile edge into the slightest smirk.]

That I am. The one and only.

[dotcom]

Mineo was very excited to meet you. Practically starstruck.

[commedia]

[...]

[They actually frown at that. Lots of expressions here.]

He really shouldn't be. It is hardly as if I deserve the attention.

[dotcom]

[ he glances over at them. ]

The weight of carrying a name with so much history then, huh?

[commedia]

[A shrug.]

The weight of history is a lot to bear, yes, but...my name is not something people remember with such fondness as he does.

[dotcom]

I'm surprised you hadn't noticed. He's bad at hiding his excitement on his face.

[commedia]

No, no, I noticed! He made his excitement quite evident. Apparently there are even kabuki plays about this humble priest.

[A light laugh.]

But still. I'm not one who revels in attention like that, so...its something I am still getting used to.

[dotcom]

Hm, celebrity life...

[ he trails off, looking back to the stars. ]

There aren't that many Japanese people here anyway, so it's probably fine.
