Hello, everyone! You may have already noticed from the stores, but tomorrow is a holiday called Valentine's Day. I know not everyone is from Earth so I thought that it might be good to explain it.
Valentine's Day started in the West as a religious holiday, but it's turned into a holiday for showing people you love them! In some countries, you mostly give gifts to your girlfriend or boyfriend. In Japan (and Hinoto-ri) though, it's different. On Valentine's Day, women give chocolates to the men they know, and next month, on White Day, the men give gifts in return. Giving a guy fancy chocolates means you really like them! (o⌒.⌒o)♡
[If this were voice, this is where it would turn more serious.] A lot of us are waiting for people to come home, and we don't know how we can help that to happen yet. The people you love the most might not even be in the city at all. But we can still have fun for a day. And who knows... they might even show up tomorrow in time to celebrate.
...Anyway, if there are any girls (or boys, even) who want to learn how to make Valentine chocolates, come stop by the Iwatodai Dorm today. I have some ingredients ready. [attached: directions.txt] And if you have a recipe of your own you want to try, bring what you need and we'll make it, too!
[Action, Iwatodai Dorm]
[As promised, Minako has a good amount of chocolate and related materials getting ready for use. She's got the door to the kitchen open and the stoves working melting the chocolate, but a lot of the ingredients are spread out on the large dining-room table in the lobby. She's not sure how many people will take her offer, after all.
It may seem odd to do all of this when she doesn't even know if her intended chocolate recipients will be home tomorrow. But keeping busy has always been her trademark. When she's focused on other things, or other people, she doesn't have to worry about herself. So really, this level of activity isn't strange at all.]
[Note: Feel free to threadjack in the action part! Everyone probably won't be working individually the whole time, after all.]

[Sorry Takashi, you've now entered her clutches and it's unlikely you'll escape without chocolate.]
no subject
[ But he wasn't here to make chocolates... Still, he'll follow her wherever she leads in the building, though he looks around curiously as he goes. ]
Um, your dorm is very nice.
no subject
[She'd been in an all-girls dorm before and it wasn't as fun as this one. But still, any kind of dorm beats living by herself.
She just leads him as far as the couch and then sits down.] So you want directions, right? I can show you how to find the map on your COMP, first.
no subject
[ He wouldn't know, not being widely experienced in dorms. But in any case, he hesitates a moment or two before sitting down, as well. ]
It has a map?
no subject
[Somehow she'll show him how to do that....] We actually aren't that far from the Libra apartments. If you get there, you can use the teleporter to go back to Pisces.
no subject
[ This COMP is super high tech and really cool, okay! Pardon him while he's a bit dazzled by it and by other news. ]
There are teleporters here?
no subject
[This is really going to help Takashi be confident in using teleportation as a travel method]
