Rin #492: Hoping for Clear Skies
Rin
*Sigh* It's raining again…
[Fade in/out.]
Player
What's wrong, Rin? Is there something on your mind?
Rin
No, not exactly. I'm just worried about whether or not we'll be able to hold our upcoming Star Festival party.
Player
The weather has been pretty miserable lately.
Rin
Everyone's been looking forward to it, so I hope that the weather does clear up, though…
Player
Maybe Orihime and Hikoboshi feel the same way as you do right now, Rin. I'm sure that they're praying now for the weather to clear up before the Star Festival.
Rin
I bet they must be. It'll ruin everything if it rains.
Rin
Princess Orihime and Hikoboshi won't be able to see each other, either. They only get one chance a year, but the gods are being such meanies.
Player
I don't think you need to worry about that.
Player
On the day of the Star Festival, birds called magpies overlap together to form a bridge. Orihime and Hikoboshi then cross that bridge to see each other every year.
Player
So I'm sure that they get to see each other beyond the clouds, even if we can't see it happening ourselves.
Rin
Oh, really? I had no idea. I should've known that a wise owl like you would know the story behind it!
Player
But they'll be seeing each other for the first time in a whole year. You'd want the weather to be clear for such a big event, right?
Rin
For sure. It's a special day where they get to see someone special to them. Having nice weather would make them all the happier.
Player
By the way, Rin…
Rin
What is it?
| Option 1: “Are you sure that you don't have somewhere to be right now?” |
|---|
| Player Are you sure that you don't have somewhere to be right now? Rin Huh? Where? Player I mean, look at the time. Rin The time? Wait, whaaa?! It's already time?! I'm going to be late for practice! I was completely oblivious! |
| Option 2: “Aren't you forgetting something?” |
| Player Aren't you forgetting something more important? Rin Forgetting something? Did I make some kind of promise with you? Player No, I mean look at the time. Rin The time? OHHHH! It's time for practice! |
Rin
I-I'm going to be late! I've gotta hurry up and get changed or Umi's gonna be so mad at me!
Player
Sorry, I was just so happy that I got to talk to you all on your own that I forgot to mention it.
Rin
I felt the same way!
Rin
But I gotta hurry now!
