April 7th - Welcome Party
Welcome Party
Though you've never seen the casino before, it is easy to find today. This is partly attributable to the music spilling from open doors right into the town. The people of Cartesio have made good on their announcement - doubtlessly, there is a party going on here.
Anyone entering will be confronted with a friendly citizen pulling them aside to inform them of their dress rental service. Though it is called 'rental' there is no actual fee to be paid. The townspeople have simply brought a collection of suits and cocktail dresses into the casino foyer and they are offering to lend them out for the occasion. A folding screen to get changed behind is provided as well.
Once you venture deeper into the casino, you'll find yourself in a surprisingly spacious room. Tables that might normally occupy the open space have been pushed to the wall and filled with various buffet foods. Though you might be tempted to spend your whole afternoon trying out the various local specialties, the rhythmic music from the speakers tries to lure you to the dancefloor. A few locals are already swinging their hips to the beat.
Though if you're simply looking for the main highlight of a casino, you won't have to look long either. Across from the buffet, you will find a wide variety of game machines. Pachinko, slot machines.... even a few odd-one-out games that look like they should rather belong in an arcade. Try your luck, try your skill! If you prove successful, an employee is waiting to hand out various fun goods to you.
There are quite a few townspeople in attendance on this party, but there is a silent understanding that you tourists are the VIPs here. Anywhere you go, any game you want to try, the citizens are quick to move aside for you and let you have the maximum amount of fun.

no subject
Not really.
I was made to be an Ironblood. I exist for Gramps' sake. If I'm not useful anymore, then that's that, and that's all there is to it.
no subject
[he raises his voice a little, stomping his foot]
Whether you're useful or not shouldn't matter. You're a little girl, and you deserve to live your life to the fullest, your own way!
no subject
Ahaha... you really do sound like Rean, sometimes, y'know that?
no subject
That's not the point! If you're gonna fight, or go on missions, then do it for yourself, not for anyone else. You're a great kid, Millium. You're not someone's property, for them to use or destroy if they feel like it.
no subject
She tilts her head, much like a confused puppy.]
...eh? I kinda am, though. Like, I was literally made for Gramps, and he bought me. Maybe that kinda thing is true for actual little girls, but it's not for me...
[Sorry, Oso. It's gonna take longer than a week to break through her wall of Issues™.]
no subject
he looks away, gritting his teeth and running a hand through his bangs]
It's... different. You think for yourself. You're not... you're not a thing.
no subject
Osomatsu knows her even less. And as far as she sees it, this is her truth.]
...ahaha. Sorry.
I keep forgetting this kind of thing is kinda a lot for other people.
Let's just... talk about something else, now. Okay?
[...She's trying?]
no subject
he rubs his forehead, then nods]
Fine. I... I just... need a new drink. [preferably an alcoholic one, that'll relax him]
no subject
[She nods.]
I can just wait here for you. Maybe we can go play games?
no subject
...Sure. I'll be right back. [he really was upset about this, but Osomatsu would bounce back. changing the subject would be good for them]
no subject
[Millium will just quietly sip on her soda while she waits, looking... actually upset, for a change.
It's not that she minds her lot in life. This has been reality for her for as long as she can remember, and it's never really hurt as a result.
But it's weird, having someone who really doesn't know her at all express such concern. With Class VII, it was stupid, but at least she could make some sense of it. She'd been their classmate and constant companion for months, after all, and even if some of it was under false pretenses, there was no denying the bonds they'd built. Osomatsu, though? She hasn't even known him for a week...
...This is supposed to be a party. Feeling weird like this is just going to get in her way. So with a sigh, she shoves those feelings right back into the dark corner of things she never intends to deal with now or later. By the time Osomatsu returns, she'll be her usual self.]
