[Kurapika has one of them pageant flyers in one hand and a blank expression on his face.]

Whoever submitted my name for that pageant--I'm sorry, but I'm forfeiting.

[Actually, no, he doesn't look sorry at all.]

[ A pageant, huh. He's not really surprised though the idea is quite amusing. ] Forfeiting? But, [ he adds with a smirk ] you could win. [ With flying colors even. ]

[This face, Leorio. And you're only safe from his wrath because you're an old friend.]

Don't you get started, too.

[ He is also safe from harm because he's not in the same room Kurapika is.~ ] Calm down, it was a joke.

[ Leorio knows Kurapika's stance on the subject won't change no matter what he says, but that doesn't refrain him from doing a question. ] What's wrong with a little fun every once in a while, though? [ In his opinion, the blond could use a little distraction. ]

I'm fine with fun. Not just this kind of fun. Will you still think it's fun if it's you who has to dress up as a girl?

[caringdoctor]

It wouldn't be fun for me because I obviously would have no chance at winning.

[ Speaking of winning, ] What is the prize for the pageant's winner?

[ih8spiders]

[He didn't win the last time, either. Apparently he lacks the spice to make curry.]

I have no idea. [And he clearly doesn't care.] It's probably not worth it.

[Video]

[caringdoctor]

[ — wait a minute. ] Heh. Still, it might be worth checking out. [ He's not taking about the prizes anymore but the contest itself. His tone of voice speaks for itself— it just hit him: Pageant = hot babes~! ]

[ih8spiders]

Sure, you go check it out if you want to. [He's disgusted--it's occurred to him, too, what Leorio might find particularly interesting in a beauty pageant.]

I'm sticking to the merchant stalls.

[caringdoctor]

[ He doesn't care about your disgust! As shown by the face he's doing right now~ ]

I'll go there, that for sure! I'll meet you at the stalls later. [ Who knows, the merchant stalls might be interesting as well. ]

[ih8spiders]

[He's surprised, for a moment--more at Leorio's easy and immediate assumption that they'll be going together than at finding himself suddenly with a companion to go to the carnival. But he quickly gets over it, comes back with a better mood, even.]

It won't be open until tomorrow, Leorio.

[Video]

[caringdoctor]

[ You're his only friend— sadly, in literal way. So, of course you'd be his companion! ] Is that so?

Then we have to think of a way to kill time.

We have work, even though there's a floating carnival looming over our heads. [wryly]
