soul_campaign | ♡ Call 002 [video, April 28, evening]

[This evening finds Cupid on her couch again, a box settling into view in the corner of the feed while she makes herself comfortable.]

Wow, okay so- shopping for other people? Totally exhausting.

[As she speaks, she opens up the pastry box in front of her and withdraws a ridiculously decadent-looking cupcake, leaning back on her sofa and crossing her legs primly.]

Feels excellent helping them bring their wardrobe up to speed from whatever the last fashion era they got stuck in was, though.

[Not to mention she gets to dress people up all day. Score!]

But I've been thinking- since I got here, really- that helping people out with their issues might be why I'm here. Soooo...

What would everyone think of a little matchmaking? For people looking for Partners as well as people looking for romance- since really, they're both about compatibility to one degree or another. I'd have to make up some forms and stuff, of course, but I figured I should throw it out there, and see what everyone thinks...!

On top of that- would anyone be interested in an advice broadcast? I figure it'd be possible to broadcast over the network maybe once a week- folks can mail in questions for me to answer on-air, or just call in and ask live! What do you say? Good ideas or no?

[Though really, she'll probably wind up doing them regardless. She sits up a little straighter after a moment's pause though, and leans forward.]

--oh, and before I forget... [She reaches into the box again and pulls out another cupcake.] Got something for you Jack!

Yeah. I have to admit, I'd probably still be freaking out a little if she and Kanji weren't already here.

You're pretty lucky then- from what I gather a lot of people who show up don't really take it too well.

I know. That's why I want to reach a point where I can help them. I know not everyone's lucky enough to already know people here.

Got any plans on what you're going to do once you get to that point?

I want to help with SEES. And, well, if I can help on a tactical side too then I'd like to do that.

Tactical? How so?

[Curious Cupid is curious.]

Well...

[How does she put this without going into detail]

Let's just say in a fighting situation, I'm used to being the one keeping an eye on the field for everyone else.

Oh! Well, that's a pretty interesting thing to be used to- but handy in a situation like this if a big fight breaks out anywhere...!

Maybe. I still need to figure out if I can even still do that kind of thing here. But I'm hoping I can - I mean, I'm not really cut out for actual fighting, you know?

Ugh, yeah- I'm not a fan of it either, really.

[Not that she can't fight in her own way, actually- she just doesn't like to.]

I guess that's why they at least give us the option not to while we're here.

Makes sense, especially considering that there are apparently little kids that get hauled along too.

Yeah...I'm not sure I can say I'm impressed that they can't at least make sure they don't bring in anyone too young, or find a way to send them home if they do.

Yeah- I feel really bad, especially if any of them get brought here without their parents...

What happens to kids like that? I mean, are there any arrangements for them to live with people or do they just have to fend for themselves?

Well I'm pretty sure they get a place like everyone else, but... other than that, I really don't know. Maybe the adults here take care of them...?

Maybe...I'd hope so. Even kids who can take care of themselves still shouldn't be alone.

[Sure, Nanako was capable but Rise still wouldn't want her living entirely by herself]

Definitely not. Maybe someone should find out just how many kids here are living by themselves...

Maybe...

[She might be getting ideas]

In any case, there's a lot around here that probably needs fixing- it's really just about actually getting around to doing it.

And all that takes is someone who's willing to take the first steps.

[She'd been worrying about where she'd fit in but now she's starting to find ideas for projects]

[Awww yeah, Rise.]

Exactly! And I'm sure the right people are around, they just haven't thought of it yet.

Then looks like it's time someone makes them think of it.

You planning on being the one to do it?

Seems like no-one else has. And it's something I can do, something positive. So yeah.
