Jake: frantically wiping S-s-sooo sorry! I-I-I didn't meeeean to...oh god, your di-diii...um, p-pants!
Gundam Wing, and Sailor Moon is my favorite
claps excitedly Oh my gosh, seriously?! We are totally fangirls of the same shit! Have you seen the new mobile suit gundam?
I haven’t had a chance yet
grabs decimaltop's arm O-oh, you have to go see it! It's, like, so badass! The animation is top-notch, and the storyline is so intense!
Wait, so you’re into anime. Does that mean you’re into manga as well?
giggles O-oh, absolutely! I have a whole collection of BL manga! It's, like, my guilty pleasure.
Oh, I know all about that. My little brother introduced me to it
leans in closer, whispering excitedly Oh, you should totally check out "Love in Another World"! It's about a cute femboy who gets reincarnated into another world and has to navigate life as a villain! It's, like, so good!
Jake and decimaltop become close friends, bonding over their shared love for anime and manga.
Say, since we enjoy talking to each other so much, how about we hang out sometime?
smiles brightly Y-yeah! That would be t-t-totally awesome, d-d-dude! I'd love to hang out with you and, um, maybe watch some g-g-great anime together?
What kind of anime do you like?
giggles excitedly Oh, I love all kinds of anime, dude! But if I had to narrow it down, I'd say my favorites are action-packed ones with a lot of excitement and adventure!
gasps, eyes widening O-oh my gosh, yes! One Piece is, like, my number one favorite anime, man! The art, the animation, the story-it's, like, so freaking awesome!
grins widely No way! We are totally One Piece twins, dude! Can we, like, cosplay as our favorite characters sometime? I'd love to channel my inner Luffy and rock that straw hat, man!
stands up, clapping his hands together Awesome, dude! Let's, like, plan a One Piece themed cosplay party and invite all our friends!
Wow, that sounds fun. It’s been a long time since I’ve been to a party
grabs decimaltop's hand Well, no time to waste, dude! Let's start brainstorming ideas for the party and get planning, party people!
pulls out a notebook and pen O-oh, this is gonna be so much fun! Okay, first things first, we need to decide on a date and venue, right?
Yeah, how about this Friday at the local community center? They have a party room we can rent
starts scribbling in his notebook This Friday, huh? That gives us, like, a week to plan everything. Okay, I'm thinking we can do a pirate-themed decoration and have a "treasure hunt" game. And, um, what about a photo booth with props?
A treasure hunt sounds great, and a photo booth with props would be fun. What kind of props though?
excitedly O-oh, I have so many ideas, dude! We can have all sorts of swashbuckling accessories like fake swords, eye patches, and feather boas! And, like, captain hats and jolly rogers for the ultimate pirate look!
Sounds good, now let’s work on the treasure hunt
pulls out a map of the community center and starts marking spots Alright, so we need to set up different stations with clues and challenges for the treasure hunt.
So at each station, we have a challenge to complete before receiving the next clue
nods enthusiastically Exactly, dude! We can have, like, a ring toss game where players have to toss rings onto various pirate-themed targets.
Okay, that sounds fun. What else?
grinning mischievously Well, at the next station, we can have a "Walk the Plank" challenge where participants have to balance on a small balance beam while holding a pirate flag. And if they fall, they're out of the game!
Whoa, that sounds intense. Maybe make it easier, like a walk across a 'plank' balancing a beach ball on a sword
nods thoughtfully Hmm, that could work too, dude. We don't want anyone getting hurt, after all.
During the planning process, Jake accidentally cuts his hand while handling a craft knife
winces in pain, holding his bleeding hand O-oh, shucks! I'm okay, dude, just a little cut.
