November catch-all ♫

[traceofeffort]

⭐ Who: Lisa and ticketed attendees- wait, no, she didn't issue tickets, it's just everyone.
⭐ When: November, perhaps with backdated stuff as needed?
⭐ Where: Around town! Maybe in the Dream Sphere too, we'll see where things take us.
⭐ What: A certain bassist has Some Things on her mind and may require distractions. She still hasn't entirely wound down from the last Disturbance, but there are some... other issues also cropping up.
⭐ Warnings: Lisa-typical spirals, though it might be a bit worse than usual this month... Otherwise check headers, but should be fine.

Oh! That's a lot less ominous. Sorry, I'm a little twitchy right now.

[That comment is made while she ruminates. If there are only two-bedroom or larger apartments, that's... a lot of space, and thus a lot of money. It would explain the cost somewhat if they're actually decently-sized and conveniently located...

Then the other message comes in, and she stops. Reads it again. Blinks at her phone again. Wonders what she's done to deserve the friends she's making, and briefly clutches her phone to her chest. Things... might be okay after all.]

I'm flattered, Karen, but you barely know me. Are you sure you even want to offer?
I really appreciate it, don't get me wrong! But I just don't want to impose on someone when I really haven't done a whole lot to earn that.

[The response is completely correct. She really didn't know Lisa that well at all. She had no idea about her worries, her dreams for the future, or much beyond that she had been looking for a college. But she'd still managed to leave a positive impression.]

About that. We really haven't spoken much since the time we met on campus. But you still listened to me when I shared a lot more then you asked about. And I have seen you fighting hard on the other side for the sake of other people. Hibiki knows now, by the way. About who the girl in pink actually is. But I guess what I am saying is that I feel like I can trust you to not make me regret the offer.

[It's... not a lot to base a decision like that on. And yet, Lisa knows a lot about making decisions based on vibes, doesn't she. So she probably shouldn't throw stones.]

I'm glad to hear that about Hibiki-chan. She needs more friends that understand what she's going through.
I think *I* need more friends that understand what I'm going through. So, um, thank you. For saying that.
And I like to think I take everything seriously, except for the things I'm not taking seriously on purpose, you know?

[She doesn't continue for a moment. It's... a heavy decision to make. Her heart is screaming to go for it, but can she get away with it?

Then she realizes that the whole problem is that she doesn't have anyone to run life choices past before she makes them. So her biggest hurdle isn't... really there. What a mess. Lisa takes a long breath in, lets it out slowly, and looks at her phone, before setting her shoulders.]

I think I'm going to take you up on that, Karen-chan. If you'll have me.
We'll definitely need to talk about it some more first but
I just can't stay here much longer.
