Oh! I see...! Kind of. It's nice to meet you, Miku? [Blinking. His head also tilts to the side, curious, but he'll hopskip over to where Tsukasa's been pancaked and hold a hand out to try helping him back up even though he's a tiny noodle.]
... Right! If we're going to have a whole discussion over this, then come with me! I refuse to stand here covered in mashed potatoes any longer. The least we can do is get cleaned up.
[Firmly, as he starts to walk across his SEKAI. Miku bounces, following along.
Come along, Dahut!!!
At least he can see more of the SEKAI this way. The flying roller coaster... the floating carousel... the perfect cotton candy clouds... the singing flowers...
He will follow along without fuss and is so fascinated as they walk and also filled with the scientific desire to metaphorically dissect so much of this. And maybe also literally dissect Tsukasa just a tiny bit. Just to get a look into his noggin... See what's going on in there, ya know... He would never! But the thought does perhaps pass.
ANYWAY.]
Wow...! This place really feels like something out of a dream, doesn't it?
Tsukasa pauses, chin lifted, and starts to strike a pose.]
Naturally! Of course anything created by my incredible imagination would be--
[...
Some mashed potatoes drip off of his blazer.
He makes a face, sighs, drops the pose and keeps walking.]
--Well, regardless. It was created from my dream when I was a child. I suppose this is what my child self thought would be the perfect place to represent bringing smiles to others.
It's okay though, he will ignore that they're both dripping with potatoes and gently pat Tsukasa's potato-y arm for a job well done with his posing and enthusiasm.]
Hm... So it's a space designed to make other people smile? [He can see it, he guesses.] Is that something that's important to you?
[Thanks for the potato-y arm pat, it's absolutely disgusting.
Tsukasa can't help the way his nose wrinkles. Ew.
Thankfully, he brightens up a moment later at the question.]
Yes, of course!!
[Sparkle sparkle. Miku, in front of them, turns to walk backwards, smiling just as brightly as she walks Tsukasa talk about this (since these are the feelings she's watching over, of course).]
It is my dream, after all! One day, I will be an actor who is able to make people smile the entire world over with my shows!
[THIS LIL LAD IS SOOO ENTHUSED ABOUT THE THEATER it's so cute...]
Maybe there are other people here who like acting that you can work with? It sounds like it might be a fun way to get some people out of their heads, especially after all of the stress this week!
[WHICH WILL BECOME MORE STRESS NEXT WEEK but it's fine they're in the past and do not know.]
You'd be helping people out that way, too! Igniting a spark!
[START A NEW TROUPE HERE IN PURGATORY... This feels like the plot of Hazbin Hotel.]
But I'll look forward to it! [YEAH. He looks at the fountain though and just seems fine with this. Sure why not. They might as well rinse off their giant mashed potatoes in this sedate fountain in some guy's emotion space that was created by a cat girl that speaks in the third person.]
[JUST WATCHING THIS HAPPEN AND NOT HELPING AT ALL who is he to intervene in the playful shenanigans of two friends...... Washing himself off like normal over here thanks.]

"Miku is Miku!! Miku is always watching over Tsukasa-kun's feelings and this SEKAI."
Tsukasa sighs, sitting up slowly and rubbing at his back. Ow...]
... There you have it.

Is she a figment of your imagination?
[YOU CAN'T JUST ASK PEOPLE THAT.]
no subject
But he does accept that hand up with a:]
Oh, thank you!
[Miku spins to watch them both, crossing her arms in an 'x' for "wrong".
"Bzzzt!! Miku is Miku, just like Miku said! Not a figment of anyone's imagination!"
Very helpful, Miku. Tsukasa just shrugs a little.]
So this is why I'm not entirely sure on how this place functions. Kaito would be more helpful, but... he doesn't seem to be here right now.
[I'm not RPing out six whole-ass vocaloids this whole game, so suffer, Tsukasa.]
no subject
I see! [DOES HE. you really said im gonna keep the most useless one] How strange! Is this sort of thing typical in your home?
no subject
Well... no, not exactly. I believe there are others with SEKAI, but I am the only person I know of back home.
no subject
And you don't know where this mademoiselle came from? She just appeared and explained all of this to you?
no subject

Normal things.]

But he will give Tsukasa his attention, at least!]
Oh? Do you mean plays and things like that? I've never seen one before!
no subject
Tsukasa blinks at that, startled.]
Never? Not once?
no subject
Mm-hm! We don't really have many things like that in my home.
no subject
[....]
Ah, though it would be better if the rest of my troupe were here. A one-man show isn't exactly...
[It's not his preferred method of storytelling anymore.]
... Regardless! We will figure it out! It is something you absolutely have to experience!

[WHICH WILL BECOME MORE STRESS NEXT WEEK but it's fine they're in the past and do not know.]
I'd love to watch just you perform too, though!
no subject
That's an excellent idea!! Perhaps people will find some hidden talents they didn't know they had!
[sparkle sparkle]
I will see what I can do about putting on a proper performance! And once you've seen one--or a few--then you can tell me what you think!
[... Anyway. Miku comes to a stop, gesturing to a fountain that is rather sedate and calm.
"Miku thinks you can wash your potatoes off here!"]

Thank you! Goodbye, potatoes!
no subject
Tsukasa certainly isn't as he also works on cleaning off the worst of the potatoes.
Miku is helping. "Helping". She is mostly splashing water all over Tsukasa.]
Miku, please!
[Miku out here truly just splashing more water in response.
"Splashy~ splashy~ Clean! ☆"]
no subject
You two really get along, huh?
no subject
[He says that, but it really wasn't a no...
But also, he's soaked now...
He sighs.]
Still... I suppose this is fine. At least we're less covered in potatoes. I hope we aren't dumped back into potatoes when we go back.
no subject
[He should see the types of "getting along" Dahut is used to and then he will know...]
...Well! If we are, we'll just find somewhere else to wash off after we avoid getting eaten right up. Ready?
