[ Being hassled by Weiss each time was Enough, but then a handful of people in Wiwaldi were on his case, too. He’s not grumpy enough to reject handholding ever, so he gives her hand a small squeeze as he tries to think of something.

Right. People can see through certain clothes when it’s wet. He didn’t think about that and he wishes he didn’t need to think about it. ]

You can wear my jacket after, if you want… Or we can get something to wear on top? I saw some clothing that ward off rain, I think.

[overshaded]

[ Five years, Nier. Five years...

Stop. Cuteness has a price. He's going to have to think about it more often now because his girlfriend is expanding her wardrobe. ]

I'll take your jacket.

[ Because she doesn't think he needs to spend money for this and because I want her to wear his clothes. ]

[amain]

[ YEAH? AND? WHAT'S YOUR POINT?

Finally, more cute outfits for Kainé and not her usual same lingerie. A dream. There's a nod, no fight for this. He's already shimmying his jacket off to give to her.

Oversized clothes are the best style, anyway. Boyfriend jackets are also especially cute. ]

It doesn't feel too weird, right?

[ Cause Nier is used to and also prefers clothes that fit him well. ]

[overshaded]

[ THE POINT IS HE'S STUPID. But irrational fears are irrational, I guess...

She doesn't need it now, but sure, she'll take his jacket and shrug it on. Boyfriend jackets are extra cute, not that she understands the appeal.

She shakes her head. ]

It's fine.

[ It's comfy. It's comfortable because it's his. ]

[amain]

[ It's so his jacket will get wet instead of her shirt? At least that's what he's hoping would happen, but who knows... Imagine if furry week persisted and she sniffs his jacket i would laugh. ]

Then we're good to go.

[ Fast passing to Splash Mountain and the ride is in a log. It's two per row, so they slide in without trouble, not needing to sit with others. ]

Compared to the other ride, this one is mostly outside which I don't mind. I kind of like being able to see more.

[ Or maybe it's better not to see? Nier isn't sure now. ]

[overshaded]

[ They have done so much life-threatening and death-defying shit. This really should be a breeze, if not a blast. Kainé doesn't look too excited, but her mood is vibrating. ]

I want it be just as fast.

[ Seeing or not seeing. Kainé just wants speed. ]

[amain]

[ The difference is they were in charge for those. These rides? They have no control over, so Nier is naturally nervous. It's where the excitement comes from. ]

Pretty peaceful so far!

[ What a trip of leisure until they do their first drop. It is a baby drop, but Nier is shook because he wasn't sure what to expect. ]

[overshaded]

[ Baby drop.... is fine. The splash is small.

Kainé wants a bigger drop. ]

It's a little slow.

[ Also, the ride aesthetic is.... something. The music is also something. ]

A little creepy.

[ Not scary, but weird creepy. ]

[amain]

... I don't really understand where we're supposed to be.

[ Nier doesn't get the theme and he reads a lot of books, just not helpful books. Sometimes we only love fictional stories. ]

The countryside?

[ But it's winding up to be a bigger fall soon, which has him on edge. ]

[overshaded]

Maybe.

[ It's nothing like their countryside, at least. Didney be weird. This is a new opinion. Something else to attribute to Mickey Mouse.

If he's on edge, does he want to hold her hand? She offers it to him. ]

[amain]

Kind of... I guess they would call it cartoon-ish?

[ He learned this in Wiwaldi when he was looking stuff up on anime! Anyway, he sees that hand and tilts his head. ]

I'll be fine, Kainé. Thank you.

[ He has to show her he's strong, but then this is the medium drop and he instantly snatches her hand without thinking. ]

[overshaded]

Like the anime Ichiro and Riku like?

[ This is the extent of what she knows. Via osmosis.

Anyway, Nier is weak, but it's cute. She won't comment on it, just squeezes his hand to tell him she knew he'd be like this. She likes this drop more, and it shows. Even if they get splashed more.

A little water never hurt her. ]

[amain]

Yeah, except from a different land of origin.

[ Fortunately, Nier's jacket will protect her from the splash... Unless she just dunks herself into water. The squeeze has him recognizing that he's holding onto her hand, but he has no heart to take it back. It would even be more noticeable that he was definitely spooked. ]

The music makes it seem cute, but this is...

[ They're going up a big slope now. ]

[overshaded]

[ She's feral, but she's not that feral. She also thinks it's cute that he was spooked. Or maybe she's just taken to thinking he's cute in general. ]

The music isn't cute.

[ It does not make her comfortable at all, but at least she's not here for the music. Her eyes all but sparkle at how tall this slope looks. ]

[amain]

[ Nier is a wholesome boy so I will take the compliment for him despite how he is lowkey feral. ]

It doesn't make me scared is probably a better way to say it—[ And they drop and Nier is clinging for dear life. ]

[overshaded]

[ He has to be at least a little feral to be with Kainé, but on the whole he is a more wholesome person than she is.

She laughs as they drop, letting him cling to her however he pleases. They're going to get soaked, but it's okay. They hit the bottom, and there is no saving them. ]

Not the music, but the drop, yeah?

[ Her hair is plastered, and not even his coat can fend off all of the water. ]

[amain]

… Yeah.

[ Nier has gone faster than this, but again it’s about control. They have known on this weird mechanical death trap and it makes him lowkey nervous.

It’s fun, though! He’s having fun, enjoying how his heart paces so much faster, but it doesn’t show on his face as much. ]

Is that the last?

[overshaded]

Think so.

[ She looks ahead of them to all the seats in front of them. ]

Looks like they're about to tell us to get the fuck out.

[ She brushes her hair out of her face. ]

Another one?

[amain]

Yeah. I saw that there's another "mountain" ride.

[ It looks like they're going to get off, but before Nier takes out the map he's going to fix his hair so he can see better. Now back to looking... ]

This one is called Big Thunder Mountain? That sounds pretty promising.

[overshaded]

[ i can't remember if i've been on big thunder mountain.... i feel like it was closed for some reason the last time i went.

Anyway, she nods. ]

I wanna dry off a little. Let's walk around first.

[ Sitting in another roller coaster while this wet sounds uncomfortable. ]

[amain]

[ It is just a train railroad-esque rollercoaster that goes around a mountain in and out of tunnels, I think. ]

Sure. That sounds like a good idea. [ Speaking of— ] We should get some souvenirs for Emil, even though I want us all to come here together one day.

[ He'd get one for Yonah, but he wants didney to be an entire surprise for her. ]

[overshaded]

Yeah.

[ Emil would like that. ]

Some accessories. [ To pin onto his cloak. ] The ears would be good on him.

[amain]

I did see some pins over here...

[ They are pricey, but it's fine. They have gold and fief money. He tilts his head and looks at the assortment. ]

We don't want too many that it might weigh down his cloak, right? Maybe one really pretty one? Or three? [ IT'S ALWAYS 1 OR 3. ] Oh, the headband. There are also so many.

[ ASSORTMENTS ARE A MISTAKE. ]

[overshaded]

Three.

[ Emil deserves the best and many. She is wiling to give the mouse money if it means Emil will be happy. ]

He'd like something with the princesses.

[ He would want to be a Didney princess with Nier as his prince. Kainé knows without a doubt. ]

[amain]

Three, then.

[ Maybe they'll get a pretty matching set for Emil. Nier will look out for that and leave Kainé to pick the best Mickey Mouse ears.

of course, being Nier, he doesn't know the truth about Emil. ]

Wouldn't he want the other ones?

[ why princesses. ]
