Soulfasting Concert for Charity

[my_father_is_a_tycoon]

Who: Lenna Charlotte Tycoon, the Kagamine twins, and open invite for all
What: A Soulfast-themed charity concert and dance
When: Sunday night
Where: The Tycoon family estate
Summary: Lenna is hosting a charity event to benefit Union's poor and homeless population, along with refugees from war-torn communities outside Union's walls and people who are moving into the city but need some help while they get on their feet.  The entire city is invited, and donations are not required but are strongly encouraged in the form of Lenna smiling and making big moe eyes at everyone as they enter until they do.

[It's the beginning of the Soulfasting holiday, and despite the complications with Cresselia and Darkrai, Lenna has miraculously managed to pull together the final preparations for her charity event at the last minute.  The party itself is being held at the Tycoon mansion in the noble quarter, and the doors have been opened for any and all who wish to come and make merry.

The spacious foyer of the house has been set up with numerous tables with food and drink for the various attendees, plenty of room for dancing and mingling, and of course a large stage at the front of the room set up for Rin and Len Kagamine - Lenna's roommates and the headline performing act of the night.  There are donation boxes situated around the room, and Lenna will also be accepting larger donations personally so that she can secure them elsewhere in the house.

And because of the time of year, there is also a table set up with plenty of Pokemon-themed masks for people to wear, with a fancy sign hand written in calligraphy: 'Courtesy of the Tatsumi Gallery.'  Lenna herself is wearing a short red party dress with matching heels, greeting everyone as they enter and more or less just buzzing about making sure everyone is having a good time.]

[That is more than warm enough for her! Yakumo is happy to see her and Kotori is delighted to find a friend here, it's perfect. The only thing keeping the other girl safe from a a hug is the fact that she has clearly taken long to get dressed and ready for this and Kotori would rather not ruin all her efforts.]

Wow, you look lovely tonight!

[psychicsister]

[Yakumo blushes faintly, but inclines her head gratefully.]

You look beautiful, too. That dress is very you.

[unbalancedlove]

Hehehe~ I'm glad you like it! I tried to dress up for the occasion.

[She looks quite simple in comparison to most of the high class attendees but that has it's own charm too.]

Everyone is so elegant here that it's a bit overwhelming.

[psychicsister]

[Well Yakumo isn't really in anything much fancier, herself.]

It is, isn't it? I don't go to many parties like this one, so I'm feeling a little out of place, myself.

[She taps the Mismagius hat with a finger.]

But at least I came in costume.

[unbalancedlove]

[Kotori is not going to resist the chance to poke the hat, not at all. Oho, good materials!]

It's really well done! is it a Mismagius costume?

[The playful tone shows in her words.]

Ha ha, it's the same for me, it's like the moment you lower your guard you'll embarrass yourself or mess up. It's a bit tense.

[psychicsister]

Oh...absolutely.

[Yakumo nods.]

and yes, it's a Mismagius.

[unbalancedlove]

But~!

[Have a happy smile from the brunette girl.]

If Yakumo is here I can relax~ ah, maybe I should have come in my soulfeasting costume too, we would have matched.

[psychicsister]

Oh, it's fine. You look really nice in that outfit.

[Yakumo smiles faintly and gestures to a table, taking a seat.]

You came all by yourself, then?

[unbalancedlove]

It would be really cute to match our outfits though, we should try it someday.

[She'll get you a green ribbon and all, it'll be adorable!]

Yes, I thought Deery and the rest would feel out of place somewhere like this, so...

[She obediently takes a seat.]

[psychicsister]

We could do that. Yes

[Yakumo sits and shakes her head, smiling.]

No...I meant...alone? Don't you have a boyfriend or something? Some escort?

[unbalancedlove]

A boyfriend?

[Even though she barely raises her voice it's clear that the young bird is most startled by the assumption. Her cheeks heat up so much that she reaches for them, rubbing slightly on the rosy surface.]

D-do I seem like that kind of mature woman? I don't have anyone like that...

[psychicsister]

...No. I just...thought maybe you had one?

[Yakumo blushes, blinking in surprise.]

Because...you're so pretty and outgoing. I just...thought...

[unbalancedlove]

[The compliments only make her blush even more.]

I-I have yet to fall for someone but... I'm really glad you think so highly of me.

[psychicsister]

Well, of course. I mean...I hope you find someone though. You deserve it.

[Though, the topic is a little embarrassing for someone who has fallen for someone else...]

[unbalancedlove]

Hehehe, hopefully! But love is not something you can hurry, I think.

[It'll get even more embarrassing from now.]

Do you have a boyfriend, Yakumo?

[psychicsister]

M-Me?!

[She seems startled, waving a hand in an emphatic no.]

No, no...I don't.

[unbalancedlove]

Really?

[So the blonde man from earlier wasn't her boyfriend?]

[psychicsister]

Really. Why...did you think I had one?

[unbalancedlove]

Eh? Well, I saw someone that looked like you dancing with a blond gentleman earlier so I thought...

[Important fact: she saw that with Harima]

[psychicsister]

Oh! Well...that...was actually a woman. Haruka Tenoh, an actress from the theater. She asked me to dance, so I said yes.

[unbalancedlove]

[Blink.]

So she is your girlfriend?

[psychicsister]

[Eyes go wide in confusion.]

No! I...just met her tonight.

[unbalancedlove]

[The erases all chances of love triangles occurring, what a pity... oh well. Yakumo had some fun here and that's what matters.]

I see. Sorry for the weird question it's just that we don't really talk about this topic a lot, do we? romance and stuff.

[psychicsister]

No...it's...it's alright. We haven't talked about it, have we?

[Yakumo shrugs, but her cheeks turn a telling shade of pink. There is someone she likes.]

[unbalancedlove]

We haven't touched the topic at all.

[She nods, accepting the other girl's words, and launches the most dangerous question for Yakumo's heart.]

Then! Are you in love with anyone?
