[Still Action Because...Well.]
[Makie's general thoughts on Luceti, once she gets used to the place (somewhat), are to make sure she earns her keep but, in general, fade into the background as much as possible. She's currently residing at the castle that is house 44, though she still hasn't met all the residents there. Makie is notorious for keeping to herself.
That doesn't mean she won't be seen all over town in the next few days, however, shamisen in hand. Errands, mainly. She has to return to Community Building #1 in the hopes that the journal she's supposed to have got left behind in Alexei's, uh... bathroom... and thank him for the courtesy he showed when she arrived. But on the ground floor, you see, there is an elevator, and...
...yeah, she doesn't really know what that is. After a minute or so of peering at it in confusion, she'll take the stairs.
Probably.
Other places she visits are the memory garden, the tea house, Seventh Heaven (to take up duties as a dishwasher, so mainly out of sight of the customers), and up to the farmlands just for the sake of exploration.
Eventually, she also visits the battledome, because she's been told about it and she is curious. But she likely won't stay long, because technology is intimidating, so after peering with a half-glazed expression at various controls and such, she leaves again, unless otherwise distracted. Such a place is no doubt for you magical types or...something.]
((ooc: this entry brought to you by the need to get a whole bunch of small things out of the way at once. Assume various parts take place over the 18th-21st for the sake of flexibility.))

To protect the world from unyouthliness
Ah... forgive my manners. Are you well, Makie-san? This is Gai-Sensei! He's taught me everything I know.
[By now, Lee's likely given Gai some idea of how to work the Battle Dome controls and such, but he also trusts his teacher to come to most of the conclusions himself.]
NOTHING RHYMES WITH YOUTHLINESS
[ He rewards Lee with THE FONDEST SMILE, and then peers at Makie. Who seems to definitely lack the fire of youth.] Hmm! So why is that you wanted to see this place...? That object your holding - does it somehow double as a weapon?
How about uncouthliness?
I'm doing quite well. Ah... it is an honour to meet you, Gai...Sensei. [We just won't mention the shamisen.]
The battledome sounded curious. We have... nothing like this at home.
Yes that
She finds it utterly fascinating!
8|a Dang, I never thought of that! ALSO PLEASE EXCUSE THOSE TYPOS IN MY LAST TAG augh
[ Other than, you know, literally anywhere else. ]
Well, what are we waiting for?! Lee, lead the way! Makie-san, we will do our best to inform you of any features of interest! But do not hesitate to ask questions - the fire of youth is fanned by the pursuit of knowledge!!
[ AS LONG AS IT'S COOL BATTLE KNOWLEDGE not like maths or whatever ]
...I DIDN'T NOTICE UNTIL YOU M ENTIONED IT SO OKAY
Thank you. I appreciate the help.
no subject
Then with a diligent nod, he begins to lead her through.]
Very well! If you look to any side, there are different rooms in which the simulations are held. Peeking through the observation windows will give you an idea of the fantastical things happening within!
I'M SO SORRY FOR LATENESS WAHHH
[ Yes or they're lasers. Anyway, he's unceremoniously dragging Makie over by her sleeve. ] Have a look at this, Makie-san! Wouldn't this be exhilarating?! Battling against lightning attacks that can barely be seen! It would surely require finely honed senses!
Hey I'm just glad you came back
Yeah seriously, she's startled by the drag, but distracted very quickly by such...lightning attacks. And her eyes narrow in calculation. She wonders if she could avoid those.
She's distracted enough she agrees with him without thinking.] Surely. And the skill to match.
[...how are they doing that, anyway.]
Let's all celebrate
That is correct! An astute observation, Makie-san. But there is one component that is forgotten for succeeding in such an endeavor: [He raises his fist in a dramatic pose.] Pure guts! [And then he looks towards Gai like a dog awaiting a treat.] Is that right, Gai-Sensei?
There ain't no party like a Luceti party because a Luceti party don't get dropped
But do we have beer?
...why not indeed.
[She can't be too melancholy with these two around though-- she'll just. Stay back a step and watch thiis epic posing with bemusement and hope they don't expect her to do the same.]
Maybe just mixed drinks of youth
Gai-Sensei, thank you! And you seem to understand, Makie-san. That is excellent! Here in this Battle Dome, should we put you towards a test?
