1999? Gotta be October by now, almost November.

Ah...

[A beat.]

Well, a cellphone is still a cellphone. Where are the settings?

I thought you were gonna do it.

[ ...he might not know where the settings are. ]

... Oh, gosh. Okay.

[She squints?? And eventually, after a couple of failed attempts, she finds the setting menu. Wowie!]

I can't believe how tiny the screen is...

Why would you want the screen to be bigger?

[ It's not like he can watch movies or something! ]

For a lot of things. Give it, hm, 20 years and you'll see what I mean.

I'm not sure I wanna live that long, but sure.

[ He'd be 38... oof. ]

[Sir.]

... Do you really mean that?

Yeah? That seems way too old.

[ Akira is a city boy who feels more at home in a concrete jungle than an actual one. That doesn't stop him from checking out the Park though, mainly because it's a good way to escape the buzz of the city, which is louder than he's used to after being away from urban centers for so long.

He's currently parked on a tree branch over looking one the many ponds below. He hasn't spotted Ulrika yet, but it's not like he blends into this tree well either. ]

... I guess it's hard to imagine ourselves in 20 years at our age. We could be totally different people by then.

[Monika is now an alchemist...

Akira may not blend well, but Monika isn't quite looking up either. She hums while she approaches the pond, stretching while she walks and talks to herself. Enjoy(?) the idle musings.]

Man... I want to go for a run, but I'm totally not dressed for that. What to do...?

Do you know what you want to be doing in twenty years?

[ I am sad I cannot have him make a yolo reference since he is before the time. ]

[She hums, smiling just a little bit.]

... In an ideal world, I would want a job I'm passionate about and a happy marriage with the person I love.

[Implied, there is no such ideal world.]
