[marsascending]

[ did she set up a little booth? maybe.

will she pour you a drink? probably. ]

Hello! Limited-time engagement only, so here's your last chance to get kisses from me before I'm departing for parts unknown!

...some restrictions apply.

[nihilmancy]

...Ah. No, that doesn't sound pleasant.

[marsascending]

It definitely wasn't!

[nihilmancy]

Ah, I feel like I wasted my one question.

[marsascending]

Well, that's life, isn't it?




...If you drink all six potions in one go I'll give you another one.

[nihilmancy]

Okay. I'll take you up on that.

[marsascending]

[ well in that case she slams a full set onto the table, and also pours her a chaser shot of something very alcoholic for good measure. ]

All yours.

[nihilmancy]

Not having any?

[marsascending]

What? No, I don't care about winning, I'm just here for a good time.

[nihilmancy]

Hmmm, okay.

[Gulping down a purple one!

The word "Wistful" appears over her head.]

Mm.

[marsascending]

Intriguing! Carry on.

[nihilmancy]

It's strange to know you may never see somebody again. We've never been close, but... hm, we could have been, and now that will not happen.

[ the word remains unchanged. ]

[marsascending]

Well, you'll definitely see me again! That you don't have to worry about.

[nihilmancy]

Mm, that's what I thought you meant.

[conflicted]

[marsascending]

I could hardly stay away for long. And, well, that's one of six, so, it's about time to pick another color, isn't it?

[nihilmancy]

Right, but, I have to kiss you first.

[marsascending]

I never said anything about kissing, just drinking all of those delightful concoctions at once.

For science.

[nihilmancy]

[concern


followed by stubbornness]

Science is it?

[one by one, all down the hatch.]

[marsascending]

Science!

How do you feel?

[nihilmancy]

The same.

[ unimpressed ]

[marsascending]

Wah, boring.

...although your hair's fun, now! So there's something.

[nihilmancy]

W-What?!

[ surprised ]

[marsascending]

It's very fetching! Very exciting! Very now!

[nihilmancy]

[brings a lock of hair in front of her eyes—

surprised and delighted ]

Oh, wow, this is really happening, huh!

[marsascending]

Now this is what I call science.

[nihilmancy]

[ she laughs, but there's sadness in it. ]

Ha. I do wish we could have been closer friends.

[ regretful ]

I may have been a better BARiTONE than I thought.
