“ it’s a special day today~ ”

“ you—?
... right, the whole alternate universe thing. i almost forgot about it. ”

sheepishly rubbing the back of their neck.

more walking later, they're face to face with some movie posters. looking at him expectantly.

“ so, no romance movies. there’s anime and horror, though. ”

the hesitation only gets them curious. when he spills, they look stunned, even stopping in their tracks.

“ wait, seriously? you even got the same taste as her... not that i’m complaining. ”

they let out a couple giggles before they go back to walking.

y–you do?
um, that’s good to hear!

[ can’t help but chuckle with her, especially after that. ]

huh, i guess i just live up to my name, then.
but... it’s no biggie, i’m happy to give you some company.
it’s a good thing to have met you at all.

whatever makes them happy, i suppose. and slash or whatever pays the bills.

[ as their laughter fades, ligaya starts rubbing their arm bashfully. ]

hey, jill... thanks again, for hanging out with me.
you’re one of the few friends i have. um, besides my family, of course...

maybe not. i don’t wanna get kidnapped. or find out i’ve been cheated on. or suddenly called to find out my mom has amnesia.

[ ligaya shakes their head. ]

i wouldn’t be able to take it seriously. they’d kick me out the set.

damn...
sounds fun. err... not for them, obviously. it’s horrible.

[ they let out a few giggles. ]

engaging in gossip is in my blood, you could say — though, just the listening for the most part.
i don’t wanna actually get involved in the drama.
makes me imagine one of those telenovelas...

it’s probably why they use cheap versions of them now.

[ ligaya’s smile widens a little. tossing the wipes into a trash can before putting the cake back into their phone.. that’s a real sentence. ]

going back... how’s it like, being a bartender and all?
i can imagine the amount of overheard drama.

oh, thank god.

[ a little exaggerated, but they didn’t wanna have to walk around with cake hands. they take and use them. ]

at least they’re just wipes. i’ve seen actual silverware from restaurants in our drawers.

“ oh, c’mon. not my fault i’ve got a smart lizard aunt. ”

ligaya gladly accepts the offer, once again lacing their fingers together. squeezing his hand as they walk around and look for an escalator.

“ what kinda movies do you watch, anyway? ”

ah yeah, that isn’t too bad. my ride back home’s like, what, two hours or so...?

[ ech, sticky... how are they supposed to rummage through their stuff with these. ]

um... anything to clean our hands with? haha...

“ well, you did recommend the movie. we should check what’s showing. ”

ligaya’s smile returns, taking the bags in their hands.
that is, before they pull out their phone, making use of the dimensional boxes.

“ see? no need to make you carry all that stuff. ”

groaning, they lazily waddle away.

“ we could use these some other time then... ”

switching back to their usual outfit, they meet at the register. trying to ignore the confused look of the cashier scanning the combination of clothes they both got.

“ ‘course i am, i think i made a decent fit. ”

checking themselves out in the mirror, doing a couple poses.

“ too bad we gotta take ‘em off to pay for them. ”

yeah, she’s got about a hundred years of experience.
i think you’d love her, she’s really sweet.

[ done with the cake for now. hopefully they didn’t forget to bring some napkins… ]

oh, how far is your job from here, anyway?

ligaya comes back after 10 minutes looking for him in the store.

... not even going to describe what they’ve dressed themselves in.

[ they shake their head. ]

no, the tall fluffy-looking one.
like, if you thought of a nice old lady, that’s what she looks like.

except as a monster, i guess.

ligaya stares at him more intensely when he turns around. the trance breaks when he pokes them.

“ snrk—... i’ll try to look for something. ”

glancing at the bright pieces of clothing.
guess we’re giving these a chance...

[ they look like kindergartners eating dirt........... ]

yeah! ‘s just chocolate but i really like it.

[ yep. just stuffing their mouth with a handful of cake. ]

“ ah... hm. ”

... he’s not colorblind, is he?

“ ... ”

what? i’m not the only one flabbergasted here.

“ what do i even match with those...? ”

????????

oh—.

[ hm, frosting all over... but okay!
ligaya does the same with a slice of their own, trying their best to not break it in their hold. crumbs are already falling to the ground. ]

mm, mom still makes the best cakes!

[ now now. don’t be too impressed. ]

okay!

[ they cut off a small piece. then their smile drops as they realize something. ]

... i um . i don’t have forks with me.
