[Strange how this guy hasn't made a post in forever; the communicator sure remembered and gave him a nice shock for his troubles.]

I get it already: didn't use you so paying for it.

[He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose, glad that he wasn't affected by the pollen going around. Actually, he and his ponyta were working on another little project and this post is a main reason to make it known.]

So if anyone remembers me saying that I was working on a dojo here in Dissimulo, I just finished up the last details. If anyone is looking for a sparring place or wants some lessons in defending, the doors at the high school gym are open.



[Filtered away from Makoto]

This is going to sound really odd but...does anyone know any good spots for a date?

[Ouch.

...She remembers being shocked that way as well, and seeing this, she suspects it may happen again. Better reply--

It's been a while since they've really got the chance to talk anyway.]

To be honest, I'm not sure there's anywhere on Fortuna that qualifies. [Hmm, she looks thoughtful, though, hand to her chin]

...Glad to hear you haven't forgotten about the dojo, though.

[kungfublackfrog]

I wouldn't say that until you can't find a place at all.

[He's glad to hear from her; it's been a long time.]

I wouldn't think about it; might've been here for a year now but I don't forget something I said I would do.

[waytoopatient]

[Haha, always so optimistic. She's still thinking about it, though thinking too hard makes her think of the Shinichi situation...urgh, she'd rather focus on the training.

for now.]

Hm. Is someone gonna help you run it?

[kungfublackfrog]

...are you offering?

[He wouldn't mind at all for any help.]

[waytoopatient]

[...oh huh.

that's a good question. is she?]

Well, I may be a karate champion, but... I've never taught it before. I could try lending a hand or two, though.

[kungfublackfrog]

All kinds of help is welcome. I don't mind at all.

[waytoopatient]

Sure thing, then.

[Though she may end up talking it over with Conan first.]

Got anything specific in mind?

[kungfublackfrog]

Not right now but once it starts getting some usage, it'll be most likely keeping the place clean and keeping an eye on those who want to spar and make sure things don't go too far.

[waytoopatient]

I can do that.

[Hey, she keeps Shinichi's place spotless when she can, even if he's never there.

...Now she knows why, but still.]

And speaking of which, we should spar again sometime.

[kungfublackfrog]

Sounds like a good plan.

[waytoopatient]

If you have time.

...I could help you scope out a place for your date, too-- if no one's suggested anything that you like.

[kungfublackfrog]

Someone did mention one place out in Spero. Want to check it out with me?

[Because you need to get out more. Seriously.]

[waytoopatient]

[Out of Dissimulo-- yeah she agrees.

It takes her a moment to convince herself that she really doesn't need to keep an eye on Conan 24/7. But in the end, she nods.]

Yeah, sure... [And then there's a bit of a grin.] As long as she doesn't get the wrong idea.

[She's assuming this is secret though, unless she finds out somehow-- but if she does, it won't be from her.]

[kungfublackfrog]

She won't; it's a surprise after all.

[waytoopatient]

[She nods, understanding that much. Though surprises can be easily foiled...

It doesn't matter now, though.]

What kind of place is it?

[kungfublackfrog]

It's a garden Yao told me about. Said that there's something worth seeing at nighttime.

[waytoopatient]

[Her eyes light up a bit. It's hard to imagine a beautiful garden on such a desolate planet, but there must be some truth to it.]

Ooh! I take it he didn't tell you what that "something" was though, huh?

[kungfublackfrog]

Actually he did: it looks terrible during the daytime but it blooms at night. I've never heard of anything like it here before.

[waytoopatient]

[......oh...

That means they'll have to visit at night for it to be worth anything, huh? Dates are usually at night anyways, but...]

I haven't either. I-It sounds pretty, but... kind of inconvenient.

[For scoping-out purposes, at least.]</small<

[kungfublackfrog]

[Ran, what are you thinking?]

For it to be all the way out there? Might be but I guess it means that it's something worth checking out.

[waytoopatient]

Well... yeah. I guess you're right.

[Hmm.

Or at least she hopes it's something worth checking out, anyway. For their sake. It takes her a moment, but she shrugs it off, seeing how lax he is about the whole thing.]

When do you wanna go?

[kungfublackfrog]

Want to try for this coming weekend?

[waytoopatient]

Sure.

[She nods. That gives her a day or so's notice--which is more or less enough.]
