I am from Egypt. So this place is quite different to what I am used to...

[dms]

Oh, no way! It must be a huge culture shock. Do they even have carnivals like that in Egypt? Or clowns?

[ or... monsters ]

[godcards]

No, not really. It's mostly sand.

I did see clowns during my travels, but they were... different.

[dms]

Yeah, they aren't usually like this, right? They're supposed to make people laugh, not jump scare them.

[godcards]

Oh, these ones definitely made me laugh.

But, I don't think anything, or anyone, here particularly cares if we're entertained or not. Which makes it hard to enjoy the break. Don't you agree?

[dms]

Aha, I guess you're right about that. But I wonder if we couldn't do something about that? I mean, Kumopi and I are actors, so we're all about entertaining people.

[godcards]

Oh, you mean like putting on a play? That sure is nice of you.

[ buddy you can't just assign school plays to people, ]

[dms]

Exactly like that! It's just the two of us here, though, so we probably can't put on a full play, but we can probs come up with something fun if we try!

[godcards]

I bet people will appreciate the distraction, regardless. Get people to see how talented you are!

[dms]

Challenge accepted! We'll need a little time to come up with something, but I think we can figure something out that the people here will like!

You've seen plays before, right? What are your faves?

[godcards]

[ Blue screens with his stupid congenial expression on his face. ]

I don't really remember the names of any I've seen.

[dms]

Haha, that's okay! Maybe Mankai will be the ones to come up with something you will remember!

[godcards]

You know, you could ask around and see if there's a particular title or style that people like. I may not remember, but I bet there are people who do.

[dms]

Mm, that's the plan! I don't know if it's possible to do one show that suits everyone, but we could trying a bunch of different things won't hurt either, you know? We could even do a series of shorts!

[godcards]

If nothing else, it'd keep you busy. Better than sitting around.

[dms]

True that! I always get restless sitting around, anyway. I don't know how people do it!

[godcards]

They're lazy or under-stimulated.

[dms]

You think so? I just figured some people live at a different pace.

[godcards]

That doesn't excuse everything. Sometimes people just don't do a very good job at things, like being active or talking to others, or what have you.

[dms]

Haha, that is true! But everyone's different. Sometimes talking to other people is really hard, you know? Then they just need a little boost to get into it.

[godcards]

It's not really that hard. Just say something... Humanity has been around for thousands of years, there's always something to talk about, even if you don't like it.

[dms]

Ah, but isn't it better to talk about things that make you happy?

[godcards]

That's not always relevant.

[dms]

No, but it is a great way to help get someone out of their shell, don't you think?

[godcards]

Sure! If you're able to find some common ground. If the other party isn't very interested, it doesn't matter how much you love the sibject matter, it will fall on deaf ears.
