⭐ Who: Ai and you!
⭐ When: End of May through July
⭐ Where: Various prompts around Yumemigaoka and the Dream Sphere
⭐ What: An Ai catchall for the next month! After a suspiciously well timed vacation out to Hokkaido, Ai's back in Yumemigaoka and ready to catch up on everything she missed. I'm also down for doing closed/private prompts so hit me up on Discord if you'd like to plan something!

Mmm... I guess I can put some of it in my pockets, and just... throw it at folks? [Pocket sand, but make it sparkle] It's not like I'm going to the actual offices or anything any time soon, so as long as I can get it out of this place, I think it could work.

[Because unless he pulls an Ai Hoshino himself and goes into the real world DU building in a hat and shades, he's pretty much blowing his cover by stepping in there, so any and all revenge had to happen while he was in the Dream Sphere. Though that does beg the question whether anything on his person while he was here last time disappears when he comes back again-- all the battle damage to his outfit usually gets repaired when he returns, so presumably things get reset to a degree, but...]

Or!! I can just roll around in it and throw myself at people instead!

[Like a cat running around the house covered in flour, but instead of a cat, it's a 90 pound boy dusted in glitter °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖° Whether he's serious or not is... debatable, but BOY does he look thrilled at the idea of being a walking sparkle menace]

Hmm... [ Ai makes a point of looking him up and down, gauging his height and overall Troublemaking Boy Size. ] That's probably not the best idea for a whole lot of reasons but most of all...

[ She brushes a little glitter off his hat, where it was just... sitting in a pile... ]

Most people around here who see something small and sparkly diving at them are gonna think it's a Torment. You might end up getting smacked around before people realize what's going on.

[ It would not be entirely undeserved, given that this would be A Prank In Process, but still. ]

[He sneezes as Ai sweeps off some of that build-up on his hat, the sparkly debris swirling up in little clouds as it drifts back down onto the ground. There is no doubt going to be some inexplicable glitter dust in Amane's bed for WEEKS once he wakes up from all of this, but... STILL. Worth it. A part of him wants to point out the irony of that statement of hers, when he's only really a centimeter smaller than she is these days (an incredible feat, when he's still one of the shortest boys in his middle school class!!), but he's gonna set that aside for the more important matter at hand here:]

Soooo... you're saying the pocket sand is the better idea, then?

[... no. That's not what she's saying AT ALL???]

[liedol]

I'm saying that if you're going to prank people on this side, you'd better be ready for the consequences.

[ So she's not encouraging this behaviour but she's also... NOT... not encouraging this behaviour........ ]
