Technically yes, but since it's a boon creature it's a little different. It's also more intelligent than you think! If you just tell it that you want to let it go where it wants to go, I think it'll figure stuff out. We can make a little cart for it with water and then it can learn to drive if you don't want to always be with it.
[this is a very stupid idea, but she seems to think this will help.]
I've always heard dolphins are really smart, so maybe it'd be okay? [she tilts her head.] But since it really only has all day tomorrow it should get to see as much of the base as possible. You're pretty strong, right?
Okay! Let's see...[she takes a few steps back to make sure there's room before reaching into the sleeve of her cloak. please don't ask about the physics of this, but she pulls out a steel service cart on wheels! there's a tank in the center, so it's more like the cart itself is built around the glass tank. it is also filled with water. the top is open if the dolphin wants to pop out of the water to see things, but there is space for it to vibe inside the tank.]
...whoa. These things really are magic. [lust why are you surprised.] This should work though!
[it's also a nice temperature for dolphin friend, so she hopes dolphin friend likes it? she'll even stick her fingers in the water and swirl it invitingly while dolphin gets a good look.]
I'm from Tokyo. [just pointblank.] A normal version of it. We don't have the same kind of sorcery you guys do, and I'm definitely not a magician.
Yeah, but without the lockdown either. [there are many tokyos, she's learning. and the chittering from the dolphin gets another wave of cheerfulness. gojou (and yuri, by proxy) made a good call telling her about this thing.]
I'm going to miss being able to create stuff whenever I want if I ever get to go back. It's so convenient! But I wonder if I could keep even half of my powers for later.
[ Yuri out here being like LUST MY GIRL and gojou is like ok yuri i care you so i will show lust dolphin. Can the dolphin give emotions, too.... Well Gojou is happy to see that she's cheerful. Bubbles of cheerful in here. ]
Got a taste of power and want to bring it home, huh?
[ It's a joke since he means like convenient things, not actual POWER. ]
[that's because yuri is simply the best. one of my npcs hates him and one of them adores him and becks has to just suffer.]
Hehe, something like that. Think about how much easier it'd be, like if I had a really important test at school but I forgot a pencil! I could just summon one right before I needed it without worrying about it. Or maybe even like snacks while I'm waiting for recording session or something if I got hungry and didn't have any extra money.
[small-scale dreams...]
But the powers we can give you guys have been pretty good, too.
Yup! [she even poses? which really just looks like her hands move to form a letter A.]
My best one...I can make people feel extra flirty. Or I can make two people attracted to each other. But I would only intervene if it was two people who looked like they needed a push oooor if I needed to break up a fight.
You could always just ask. [she pets dolphin friend.] I don't mind giving things out and I know some of the others don't either.
I guess maybe...because the mood's been bad, people don't want to try to have something fun to focus on. Which is sort of silly because then you're just wallowing in misery and that's not great either.
I was thinking Mineo and Takeru! Because Mineo always said that he’d like to see a soft Takeru, but then he’s also been keeping himself from relationships despite getting a handful of confessions cause he wants to commit his time... As Takeru’s partner. Professional.
[ Lust. Do you understand his gripe here. Also, doxxes Mineo to an Avatar just cause. ]
I think it’d be entertaining. Maybe eye-opening as they can be more sincere about their friendship since... Mineo has effectively stated Takeru is the most important to him.
[ Bro, the apparently not gay but also kind of gay shit he had to listen to ]
[she sure does. but there's also a flutter of worry after that and something a little like protectiveness following.]
Do you think that's a good idea right now after what just happened? [normally she'd say yes, but.] Takeru seemed pretty mad...and when it wore off, would they be able to recover?
Plus...I don't know. There are other people I don't want to hurt by putting Mineo in love with someone else. [it's not a no, it's lust being worried about people's feelings because she's so incredibly biased about a few tsuns.]
Unfortunately, they’re going to have to be upset with Mineo’s number of suitors and his own interests. I’d say something to put their mind off of lingering feelings about what happened would be good for them? And it’s temporary—oh, if you can tailor it to maybe a couple of hours or a day would be good. Molly and White’s lasted... A long time.
It might push people to talk about what they need to talk about again. Things that need to be revisited and, unfortunately, force is sometimes necessary.
[ However, he’s mindful of Lust’s choice in favorites. If it doesn’t seem good to her— ]
I also think Shi Qingxuan and Ming Yi are cute. Ming Yi and Megara? Medb and Endorsi must be having something, too, but Medb being Medb it isn’t a defined relationship.
[ THESE ARE LIKE more wholesome pairs in his mind. ]
... Harrowhark with someone would just be funny. Ming Yi And Molly would also be funny.
I don't think it can be tailored. Whenever you use it, it lasts the whole week. So if you wanted it to last a day, you'd have to do it on a Saturday or a Sunday. I could probably make it a little weaker though, or maybe...[she's putting consideration into this.]
I'll think about it. But I'm still a little mad at Mineo right now, too.
[she can admit she's biased that way, too.]
All of those are really good choices...[she thinks this through.] I wonder if I could set up a three-point share between Shi Qingxuan, Ming Yi and Megara.

[this is a very stupid idea, but she seems to think this will help.]
no subject
That sounds cute... Though now I feel bad because it sounds like it has to learn when it has a short time?
[ IF DOLPHIN WAS HERE FOREVER, YEAH, HE WOULD MAKE IT LEARN, but it is here till Monday. ]
Hm. I think I might do with the carting it around places method.

Dolphin friend looks at the cart so he will pass it over to check out the tank! See how it likes it. ]
Are you from a place where that isn't normal? Taking things out of sleeves is very magician.
no subject
I'm from Tokyo. [just pointblank.] A normal version of it. We don't have the same kind of sorcery you guys do, and I'm definitely not a magician.
no subject
So more like... Mineo and Sasazuka's Tokyo.
[ Mineo has a gun and guns are a normie weapon. ]
How do you like magic?

You want to give other people hickeys as a prank?
[ HEHEHE. ]
Oh, are you a music artist? Or a voice actor.
[ Squints. ]
no subject
[sound less mischievous, lust.]
I'm an idol! Mostly on the internet right now but I've been trying to expand my career.
no subject
[ Like a magical girl? ]
All right. What’s your best prank, then?
no subject
My best one...I can make people feel extra flirty. Or I can make two people attracted to each other. But I would only intervene if it was two people who looked like they needed a push oooor if I needed to break up a fight.
[like aoi and sqx.]
no subject
Oh, right! That’s what White and Molly suffered from? It was really funny—makes me wish I got a power that could be used as a fun prank.
The mood has been... Bad, lately.
[ He says that, but he keeps his emotions in check cause he knows Lust is also going through stuff. ]
no subject
I guess maybe...because the mood's been bad, people don't want to try to have something fun to focus on. Which is sort of silly because then you're just wallowing in misery and that's not great either.
no subject
Yeah, wallowing in misery is bad. That’s how you spiral!
[ hmm. ]
Then you wouldn’t mind giving me the same thing used on Molly and White? Just to lighten things up...
no subject
Who do you think you'd use it on? Got any ideas?
no subject
[ Lust. Do you understand his gripe here. Also, doxxes Mineo to an Avatar just cause. ]

[ Cause... Yeah. genuinely, Gojou is fond of Mineo and that’s apparent through emotions.
Gojou pikagasping. ]
That’s a genius idea...?
no subject
Could do both, maybe. Triangle those three and maybe something sweet for Mineo and Takeru? But I'd feel bad for White...
[please don't just doxx people.]
