[showhost]

You worked up your courage and asked someone out on a date! Good job!





Now you have to hope the producers are kind re: where they send you.

[uh]

The way you respond to things to reassure people is really worrying sometimes.

[singurarity]

But obviously I'm okay?

[aspirings]

Right... that is good.

It just seemed like you were implying that you've been freezing before.

[singurarity]

--So anyway, have you ever been this high up before?

[ MOVING ON. ]

[aspirings]

[uh huh...]

This high? No, never. It does give me ideas though!

[Think of how cool Rui would find it if they did a show up in the sky like this...? Sure, he's not sure of the mechanics yet, but still!]

It's amazing to see how small the ground truly looks from here.

[singurarity]

Right? It's nice to just enjoy it from the sky.

[ Instead of rushing towards it!! ]

[aspirings]

[instead of

WHAT

ritsuka

... he decides to uh, not ask.]

Like this, it really does feel like we're soaring, even though we're not moving particularly fast.

[!!!

FINALLY... SOARING PEGASUS...]

I'd like to capture this feeling again, when not in the sky like this.

[singurarity]

The feeling of soaring, just on the ground?

[ Well, that's ambitious. ]

[aspirings]

That's right!

[hmhmhmhm!!]

That's what seeing an incredible performance can do! The audience gets swept up in another world and time, and before they know it, they're flying too!

[singurarity]

It does seem kind of a waste that you're not a contestant, you know.

[ It'd be even livelier. ]

[aspirings]

[wdym]

Hm? I'm not sure what you mean.

But I do know that the role of host suits me perfectly! Ha ha ha ha!

[well ok]

[singurarity]

Yeah? Do you get threatened often?

[ Poor guy. ]

[aspirings]

[????]

Oh, you mean the brief snafus that happened last week. I wouldn't worry about it! I'm sure everything will be perfectly fine from here on out.

[singurarity]

... [ is this wishful thinking or willful denial or-- ]

Well, I hope so! We've got our work cut out for us either way.

[aspirings]

[it's stupidity thank u for asking]

Maybe so! But anything worth working hard for is sure to turn out incredibly when you do finally succeed!

[singurarity]

Fair enough! I really hope everyone can find love, if they're looking for it.

--Well, they will, I'm sure of it.

[aspirings]

That's the spirit! And for everyone who isn't searching for love... my goal is to see them leave the show satisfied, whatever that may look like for them.

[singurarity]

Akechi-kun said he wants to just... go live anywhere else. I think that might be good for him.

[ yeah. ]

[aspirings]

[yeah]

... At a certain point... a fresh start is the kindest option someone can be offered, right?

[singurarity]

Yeah... that's what I think, anyway. I think he's willing to work towards it, at least.

[ So that's something. ]

[aspirings]

And you've been encouraging him in that, have you?

[singurarity]

Yep! Of course I have.

[ Like. This is only a natural thing to do? ]

[aspirings]

[I mean, he agrees, so.]

He's a lucky young man to have your support, Ritsuka!

[There's a gust of wind, which rocks them a little bit, though Tsukasa is still definitely peering out without too much concern for it.]

[singurarity]

...

[ Just gently tugs on the back of his shirt. ]

I support all my friends and singular informant!

[aspirings]

[That's probably wise. He does look over his shoulder at that, expression a little quizzical, but is still kind of leaning out a little to look at everything.]

Yes, I know you do.

[PEAK RITSUKA, REALLY.]

Ah, look over there. I wonder where we are, to be able to see mountains and an ocean both from the same vantage point?

[Mystery world...]
