I am. The locals have put a lot of care into this.

This is really your first party? Well, that means it needs to be a good one, doesn't it?

[astrobleme]

I know that's weird... [and pathetic...] But it's my first one, and it's definitely going well. I like looking at everyone's beautiful costumes. And the music...! [Shinji is a little bit enthusiastic about the music. He tries to soften his tone:] Live music is like a luxury to me. Way better than recordings.

[diplomacme]

I can feel the energy of the music much better when I hear it live.

[astrobleme]

Yeah. [Looking over at the band, Shinji says,] When you can see the performers, you can see how much they're enjoying it, too. It's... more personal that way.

[diplomacme]

[ She follows his gaze. ] It's hard not to get swept up in it, isn't it?

[astrobleme]

[A firm nod.] I've never been to a concert, but it's probably a lot like this. It's a good feeling.

[diplomacme]

It's infectious-- I haven't seen the natives here smile this much since we arrived. Even in grim circumstances, people can find things to celebrate.
