*Sonico is smiling and waving in a friendly way at the camera. There's a large wild cat sat purring happily on her lap, but he seems pretty sleepy, only occasionally lifting its head towards the device*

Hello, everyone! I hope everyone is having a lovely day. I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you. I have been a part of this world for a year now and...I was quite lonely and scared when I first arrived. But now, I have such a wonderful group of friends and I am very happy here. So thank you, everyone, for being so welcoming and supportive. It means a lot.

Tonight, I'll be singing down at Hangar Queen. If you want a drink, just put it on my tab! 

[Action - Hangar Queen]

*There she is, on the stage, doing her thing. In full military outfit, Sonico is giving a very energetic and upbeat performance tonight. There are smiles and thanks between the songs. When she is done, there's time for mingling and chatting and some drinking too*

[Action - Closed to Mobius]

*At the end of the evening, it was time to go home. Sonico would finally have to change from her military uniform and back into her standard casual clothes, and then she'll go and find Mobius to see if he'd accompany her home. She scans the room for him first, because if he's busy and looks like he's having a good time she won't want to grab him away*

[ Konoka hadn't been out of Genessia OR Everglade for a while now, so catching Sonico's notice about singing when she had a day off? Great.

It sure didn't hurt that Mariko was also performing there tonight, and the brunette wanted to be around to listen to her, too. She'd heard of both of their talents, but it's been a while since she last seen them in person! So the brunette is excited. ]

That was wonderful, Sonico-han!

[ Konoka said that after she was done. ]

*Sonico smiles happily at Konoka's compliment, waving her hand dismissively, but understanding that for many people it was the right thing to do to accept praise*

Thank you very much. It's nice to see you, Konoka. How have you been?

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Oh, I'm doing alright! Things got super scary in Everglade, but lately one of my mentors showed up! It's great meeting with an old friend even if she's waaaaayyyy from the future!

So, what have you been up to?

[sonicosuper]

Is Everglade safe to live? Do you ever think about moving somewhere else?

*Sonico tilts her head a little, looking a bit confused*

Your mentor...but from the future?

*She smiles and gestures to the stage*

Mostly singing. Some modelling. I moved to Attleton too.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Oh I don't live there, I just work there. I moved out to Genessia City a few months ago and getting settled in~

But my Pokemon have been doing a good job keeping me protected while I journey out of the store.

...yeah, it's kinda confusing. I try not to think too hard on it.

[sonicosuper]

Oh! Then perhaos that is easier. I liked living in Genessia a lot. It's a nice place. I'm glad you have your Pokemon too.

*Sonico smiles and nods, a little bashful*

You sound happy and settled. That is good.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Yeah, Genessia’s great, isn’t it?

I have a little confession to make though. I’m not here just for you.

[ It looks like Mariko is up next, and Konoka has shifted a bit to get a better view. ]

I’ve got a friend I like, and I’m here for her gigs, too.

[sonicosuper]

A friend you like...?

*Sonico smiles shyly at that, giving Konoka a head tilt as she tries to find her view*

A friend you like like? In that way?

*She's not too articulate about these kinds of things...*

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Ah...! I don't know yet!

[ Konoka seemed quite flustered, waving her arms slightly. ]

I hope I can get the answer soon though.

[ Rather than state outright what that meant, Konoka simply let the implication lay there in her words. ]

[sonicosuper]

*Sonico nods in understanding - yes, she totally knows what this is like, Konoka*

I hope you can too.

*Knowing that the band are setting up for Mariko's performance, Sonico smiles and steps aside*

I'll let you enjoy the show!
