16 ♀ Video

[The first thing people will be seeing this day is a calender with the month October written upon it. Underneath were the days and dates with one circled very clearly with red marker as if to mention something big was going to happen that day. After a moment of the device staring at it, it turns around to reveal Minako on the other side, still pretty much in her pajamas and not looking like she'll get out of them anytime soon.]

I can't believe it's always less than a month until a girls favorite day. Next to Valentines Day of course, because this is the day people give you presents and sometimes money for being one year older. [With a smile, she looked a little more excited.] If you haven't guessed in under a months time, it will be my seventeenth birthday. One year older and one more year closer to being a beautiful young woman whose dream of being an idol might be one step closer to becoming a reality.

[With that in mind, she made her way over to her bed, going now to sit down upon it, but if you take a closer look you'll notice she isn't in Agrabah, the beds are way to different.] I just thought with what happened that people could use this as a positive thing to look forward to. A young girl reaching maturity, which also means for you lot a party of some kind to look forward to. [Once that part was over she started to swing her legs back and forth.]

For the dating thing, we are currently still working on fixing things, so it's kind of slow and quiet on our end, but I do hope you all had a good time either way.

All das Beste zum Geburtstag

[(Best wishes on your Birthday)
Some things are just better said in German, or at least Chloe seems to think so. ]

When is it exactly?

[Since you seem to want people to know he might as well ask. But, that dating thing... he might not have said anything but she had brought it up so...]

While I can appreciate your desire to see everyone happy, you should really give up that dating business of yours.

[Harsh criticism incoming. ]

You have no talent for it.

[Sorry Minako, Chloe feels the need to be frank with you about that whole affair. ]

If you really want to be an idol you should turn your efforts towards that and not interfere with everyone's love lives.

[Still, he does try to say this as gently as possible, since she is a lady, he just didn't feel that situation worked out very well for most people. ]

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

It's not until October, but I'm already getting excited about it.

[True it was harsh but Minako does have something to say.]

No one ever has the talent for anything first time. But just because things fail the doesn't mean we're going to give up. It's part of why we're working on things. Besides what happened was just a fun auction for charity, I don't see how that says we have no talent or not?

...You sent people out to a date where they would become furry animals and have a picnic next to a stagnant waterhole...
There was nothing romantic about that.

[Not that he wanted a romantic evening with Sebastian but just the idea that anyone would chose that as a dating location showed a lack of finesse to him. A date should be memorable, an elegant dance on a moonlit evening... not furries by a pond. At least in Chloe's mind that was a very poor choice of location, showing a lack of skill with dating matters.
She was young though, what did she really understand about dating?]

A charity auction would have worked better if people had known what it was from the beginning. You might have had people willingly sign up if they had realized the money was going towards a good cause.
Whereas a 'blind date' kind of setup would have worked better if people had known that was what it was intended to be.

[He doesn't mean to come off sounding rude if he is, Chloe is just not very good at hiding his emotions about things. When he doesn't like something he will usually say so, or... end up making a face that says so for him.
Also he is... probably still a bit grumpy from the lack of sleep the fog caused. ^^" ]

If you are going to try it again you should make certain the people you pair up are better suited to each other and that they would end up doing an activity they would enjoy.

Hey, what worlds would be better is a work in progress. Though some turned out better than others, it's hard to think of what would work. It at least cuts that down.

[She leaned back slightly laying back onto the bed, it was comfy and she wasn't going to be moving from it anytime soon.]

Well we hadn't planned on it being a charity auction when we first asked for people to sign up. It was kind of a last minute thing when I saw that the moogles were having a hard time getting things they needed to rebuild.

You wanted to make sure we wouldn't forget, Minako-chan?

[Not that she would but her mun might.]

Don't worry, we won't.

[No idea what they are doing yet, but it will be something. And she does have to ask, since the surroundings behind Minako look so different.]

Where are you staying right now?

[Video]

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

That and I'm getting excited about getting older and closer to being an adult. [Kind of, she's just looking forward to a party if she decides to have one.]

Twilight Town. I feel asleep at work, so instead of trekking back home to sleep, I just slept here at work. I made sure this place had beds for naps.

[wieldstheglaive]

What is so exciting about becoming an adult?

[She knows there are adult things, like driving and that, but not really why growing up would be so much fun yet.
Parties are something to get excited about. ^^]

You must have had a lot of work to do, Minako-chan. Have you had anything to eat since you fell asleep?

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

Ignore the criticism, unless it helps you in some way. You should keep doing what you want. You'll get better at it over time, too. Besides, I had fun.

So...what kind of idol?

[Video]

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

Depends on what kind of criticism it is. Things like 'You should just stop, you're terrible.' Doesn't help us in anyway. But I'm glad you had fun.

Well where I'm from an idol sings, dances and models and are always so popular.

[Video]

[blitz_acing]

Yeah, I can't stand it when people shoot others down. If somene really wanted to help, they'd give you advice you could work with.

Do you have a favorite?

[albinoidiot]

Seventeen? You're almost legal. One more year and you'll get the chance at becoming a woman. Exciting isn't it?

[Don't mind him. He's being a pervert.]

【 VIDEO 】

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

I think I'm more excited about my birthday this year, but I also get to make a wish.

【 VIDEO 】

[albinoidiot]

What's so special about seventeen? Eighteen you can do things now.

【 VIDEO 】

[alwaysmindful]

Growing a year older is always a spiritual time. Have you reflected on how you have changed in this past year?

【 VIDEO 】

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

Not yet, but now that you mention it I might. A lot has happened after all.

【 VIDEO 】

[alwaysmindful]

Yes it has. This place, as unwelcoming as it may seem to some, has helped mold everyone one of us. Adaptability is something we can't control.

【 VIDEO 】

[conceptualizing]

Wait, you're planning to do more with those stupid dates?

【 VIDEO 】

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

Yes, but as I said we're still trying to figure out which was genuine and which was just to be mean.

【 VIDEO 】

[conceptualizing]

Some of us don't have time for your stupid childish games.

【 VIDEO 】

[decaying]

Why are you having your own party? I thought other people were supposed to throw a party for the birthday person. [Just saying.]

【 VIDEO 】

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

Not always. Sometimes someone wants a very specific party.

【 VIDEO 】

[decaying]

What's so specific about a birthday party. You better not be planning something again.

[savesjerkbenders]

Dating thing? What has been going on here since I left.

【 VIDEO 】

[soldierofloveandbeauty]

Me and my friends opened up a dating business. Well it's called a match making service.

【 VIDEO 】

[savesjerkbenders]

Really.

[And a fire goes on somewhere in the back of her mind. She smirks.]

Tell me more about this match making service.

[Leon needs to woman before he gets too old to find one himself. Mai's got this!]
