there's a fork in the road (open)
⭐ Who: Illya and you!
⭐ When: July 1st, before the thunderstorm kicks in!
⭐ Where: Out around Yumemigaoka
⭐ What: Illya's waffling about being an active Dreamer. Maybe help give her advice?
(1. tanabata - in the store)
[ Though the stores may only have started stocking the supplies for Tanabata today, apparently someone already noticed them being there pretty early on. Illya is pretty into the idea of Tanabata, after all, and she does want to make a wish..
.. which is why you may find the girl in the store, staring at the coloured paper and the bamboo. Something seems a little off about her though, like Illya is deep in thought, despite.. just staring at what are basically just crafting supplies.
Whatever she's thinking about, she doesn't seem to be paying too much attention to her surroundings. She turns without looking, bumping right into you when you're either standing next to her or trying to pass her - though she does have the decency to immediately look embarrassed after briefly startling. ]
Oh, sorry..! Um, you-- did you also want to get some stuff for Tanabata..?
[ Is she trying to make some awkward small talk to make up for the bumping-into-you thing? Absolutely. Or maybe she's trying to distract from how out of it she seemed a moment ago. ]
(2. hesitation - near the dreamer union headquarters)
[ Later that day Illya can be seen somewhere else entirely. In fact, maybe you have actually seen her there before, if you go near or into the Dreamer Union headquarters often enough. It hasn't been for too long yet, but for the past few days this girl definitely has been hanging out near the building - seeming to walk closer to it, only to shake her head and walk back.. after which the pattern repeats all over again.
The same thing is happening today. Seems a little weird, huh? Maybe you'd like to go ask her what's up, regardless of whether you know or don't know the girl acting so oddly. ]

[He mimes shooting finger guns, complete with "pew pew" sound effects.]
Hell, I wish I could do that! I dunno exactly how it works, but it seems like Dreamers usually have powers that fit their personalities... so if you don't like fighting then you'll probably get long range or defensive powers. Pretty useful stuff!
no subject
[ .. though Illya sure hopes that her kind of personality means she'll get those sorts of powers. She could imagine it giving her a power like invisibility just to get away from it all, but then she'd feel guilty for not contributing at all..
Long range sounds a little bit like a safer compromise.
Her mind seems to linger on the thought for a moment, given her silence after she says that, but then she speaks up again. ]
Um, you know.. You sure know how to be convincing about all of this, sir. [ Because he's actually got her thinking about doing this now!! When a few moments ago she would have been fine with fleeing away from this place for life, honestly.. ]
no subject
[Although he'll take being called "sir" over that other bratty middle schooler who calls him "grandpa"... he's not even 40 yet, damn it!]
Don't worry, you don't have to be a Dreamer if you don't want to! But it's pretty fun, and you get cool powers, and...
[Ango breaks into a grin.]
And they pay you real cash money to sleep! Can't beat a union job!
no subject
I think I'm a little too young to already start worrying about money..
[ Called out once more, Ango. Even if Illya's way of calling him out is apparently very, very mild, since there's no harshness to her tone at all. If anything, it sounds more like a gentle correction, and she even adds: ]
.. mister Ango, sir.
[ That's-- Well, at least she's attempting to meet his request to just call him by his name?
Let's keep it at that. ]
I just-- I-I want to do the right thing.
no subject
...Well, he wouldn't go that far. But if anybody ever makes this kid cry, he's gonna whoop their ass.]
Well, you've gotta want to do the right thing before you can actually do the right thing... right? So you're like, more than halfway there!
no subject
[ Look at her saying that so seriously. As if Ango just imparted Words Of Deep Wisdom upon her. Like he's a True Sage.
At least it's not like he said anything bad to a very impressionable young kid, right. ]
So, um.. I guess I'll go in there and sign up, I suppose.. A-And then try to do my best from there.
