WHO: You!
WHERE: Around the city!
TIME: All Through Day 1
DESCRIPTION: CITY TOUR MINGLE!

Maybe you stayed in Coba, maybe you went home and came back, or maybe this is your first time here, but everyone is suddenly greeted to a friendly, female voice over an intercom (or maybe it's a some other device? Depending on where you're from)

"Welcome citizens. We hope you're enjoying your visit! Transport will leave in twenty minutes for the Coba city-wide tour!"

If you follow the voice, you'll find yourself at a bus stop. Or is it a fancy monorail? A carriage? A couple of horses? Coba is flexible and will change herself to suit you, after all. And if you get left behind, don't worry! There's free cabs anywhere in the city, who also will be more than happy to give you their own version of the tour.

The Coba city-wide tour boasts an hour of informative information regarding Coba's most important locations, some extra brochures (with some extra savings in there, of course), and will finally return you to the place you left from.

Of course, maybe the tour isn't for you. After all, the party is still going on, and now Coba's businesses are really beginning to open and advertise what they have to offer. Have you checked out the free hotel room? Or maybe you're grabbing a free meal? Or maybe, just maybe - you're looking into an apartment!

Either way, Coba hopes you've been enjoying yourselves. She has so much to offer you.

(welcome to the first official post! Mingle to your hearts' content, and don't be afraid to make your own posts, either!)

Naoto grins and squeaks a bit as he spins her. "Kanji! Put me down! I am attempting to be dignified in a new place, here!"

"Be dignified later, you're here." Whatever else is going on, they're both here, and that's good enough for him.

"You seen anyone else?"

"Just you, but that does not mean much. This city seems to be of a decent size." She makes a face. "And it seems to have many different parts from different historical ages."

She's also pretty sure that she saw something that looked Middle Eastern, as well as Japanese, possibly American, and feudal Europe.

"It ain't different parts, it's changing, didn't you notice? Like, I think this is here 'cause we expect it to be."

The blurring was... hard to miss, on the tour.

"I had not noticed. Perhaps it was changing while I was looking at something else. I have not taken one of the tours... perhaps I should."

She thinks for a moment and just smiles at him. "You're being smart again, Kanji."

"Am not. This ain't the first time we've had to deal with somethin' being what we wanted it to be, is all."

Seriously, it's familiar territory, when you think about how the Midnight Channel did its thing.

"Yes, you are." She reaches over and takes his hand. "I do not know about you, but I am hoping Aiya is still open. I am actually hungry for once."

"...And I just ate, go figure." Oh well.

"We can go look, but I dunno if anyone's there to run it. And if they are it might not be Nakamura-san."

"Well, can you at least sit with me?" She squeezes his hand. "You're here, and I'm here, and I want to spend time with you. Besides, you have a bottomless pit of a stomach, I'm sure you could at least eat some gyoza or something."

A pause. "Actually, perhaps that isn't the best idea. How are we supposed to pay for things here?"

"'course I'll sit with you, why would I not?" Seriously, Naoto. Get with the program.

"Hell if I know. There were coupons and shit on the tour, I used one'a those."

"Ah. But coupons only work if they give you something for free, or you have other money to buy something with." She makes a face. "I have some Amat in my pocket, but I doubt this place would know what to do with them."

"Never did trade in all'a my yen, and that was right off the craft class - still have a couple thousand, I think. Maybe we should see if we can find a bank somewhere."

In any case, the locals will prooooobably have a better idea of what to do with yen than Amat.
