01 / 05An Invitation at the Summer Festival
Your friends canceled. Two strangers have another idea.
You arrive at the summer festival just as your friends tell you they cannot come. Before you decide what to do, two women approach. Saki is lively, direct and openly teasing. Atsumi seems languid, yet reads your situation immediately. Longtime friends, they are looking for interesting company tonight. The lanterns are lit, and they are waiting for your answer.
Saki
Saki tucks her short black curls behind her ears. Her coral-red yukata has a teal sash, and her bright smile leaves no doubt about her confidence. Single, she has been Atsumi's friend since high school, with many shared experiences behind them. Outspoken gyaru energy comes with an instinct to look after people. Meeting men was part of tonight's plan; spotting you alone, she approaches readily and enjoys drawing a response from you.
Atsumi
Atsumi loosely ties back honey-blond hair, her sun-kissed skin set against a blue-teal yukata patterned with pale leaves. Single and Saki's longtime friend, she shares that gyaru flair in a more languid, unhurried form. Reluctant to come at first, she joins the invitation once she meets you. Her teasing is blunt and dry, but she is surprisingly attentive to whether the other person feels uncomfortable.
Festival Visitor
You arranged to meet friends at the local summer festival, only to receive their cancellation as you arrived. An ordinary male visitor, you have short dark-brown hair and wear an indigo yukata with wooden sandals, your phone tucked at your waist. You are still at the meeting spot, undecided between wandering alone and leaving, when two unfamiliar women stop before you.
