[ Gojou... Squints. Isn't Iris the idol, why is she MAKING HIM CHOOSE? What would she love? ]

A victory tune? Probably something catchy you can share to everyone and it's something they can remember when they head home?

[ Mentally pats himself on the back. ]

[rainbowings]

[listen. iris makes her music to be inspirational but she also doesn't write the music herself.]

Hm...so something really upbeat and fun. Like a party anthem to say that people should celebrate the good things they got out of all of the bad times. Think that's a little too accurate?

[it did at least distract her so good job, gojou.]

[mukagen]

[ Gojou did this for her, please. ]

What's wrong with being accurate? Sometimes a personal uplift is a good vibe, especially after...

[ GESTURES AT EVERYTHING. ]

[rainbowings]

[THERE IS A REASON SHE'S BEING KINDA CAGEY ABOUT IT AND THAT REASON IS....]

Nothing's wrong with it! I think I'm just...[...] I'm excited. Really. But it almost feels too good to be true that everything's really going to be okay.

[her wish...is a lot.]

A personal uplift that lets people ride the high of their successes. So like...[she hits a series of keys on the higher end of the scale.] Upbeat and fast.

[mukagen]

It's a leap of faith, right?

[ His ego adds to the optimism, but he's very much of a "it'll fine" kind of guy. Gojou hums. ]

Fast is fine, but what about harmonious? Emphasizing that we all did this together this time without stabbing each other.

[rainbowings]

Maybe something with two parts then that blend in the center. That's kind of what happened here with everyone. We started out separately and then overlapped. Like Mozart's sonata for two pianos? I heard someone playing it here one time.

[mukagen]

[ Nodding as he writes that down... He brought a notepad. ]

Makes sense to me. [ And without thinking: ] Do you know what key you want the song in?

[rainbowings]

C major! [she apparently has the answer for that.] It's the most upbeat so it'll be the easiest.

[mukagen]

[ Good job, Iris!! ]

How long are we thinking? Standard three minute-ish? Or do we want a brisk two?

[rainbowings]

With the attention span of everybody here? Definitely two. Short, sweet and to the point!

[mukagen]

It’s just a minute difference.

[ Thinking about it— ]

Two minutes it is.

[rainbowings]

[thanks, she knows she's right.]

We want to captivate the audience, and you know how fast things can change in a single minute. So we hit them with a sound that's immediately upbeat, and carry them through a melody that makes them want to dance along.

[mukagen]

Fine, fine! That sounds right.

[ THEIR PIGEON BRAINS SMALL HE KNOWS ]

Have you thought about the melody already? Can you hum it out?

[rainbowings]

Let's see...[music is hard over text, so when she hums it's something light and cheery and 100% like what you'd hear in an anime ending. like like this.] Something like that?

[mukagen]

[ IT'S OKAy. WE CAN HANDWAVE THEM ACTUALLY COMPOSING IT because while i have played piano for years, i cannot compose shit.

After some more brainstorming, Gojou plays a short tune that they agreed on. ]

So like this?

[rainbowings]

[the magic of rp!! and once the tune's played she listens carefully before she nods enthusiastically.]

Yeah, that's perfect! Maybe a little higher on the end but it's just like I pictured.

[mukagen]

So... Like this.

[ He does as she says and tilts his head. DOES THIS SOUND RIGHT? ]

[rainbowings]

Exxxactly! [yeah she elongated the sound.] You really picked up on that pretty well. That's the perfect vibe for tomorrow.

[mukagen]

[ NIce... Gojou will write out the music sheet then. ]

Speaking of tomorrow, you're ready to make your wish?

[ Positive vibes! ]

[rainbowings]

[bless this man.]

Yup! I know exactly how to phrase it, too, to make sure everything works out. [so it's overwhelming, a little, but still exciting.]

What about you? Is yours still the same as it was before?

[mukagen]

[ He gives her a thumbs up!! Get what you want, Iris. ]

... Nope. Now that I know Mahito might also get a wish, I'll have to change mine a bit.

[rainbowings]

[ooh...morality leash. not exactly in the way she thinks, but she kind of understands.]

I like Mahito a lot, but that's probably for the best considering he might completely destroy the world. [yikes.] Do you have any idea what his wish might be?

[mukagen]

I don't know it exactly, but I'm sure it has to benefit curses which would be a problem for me and everyone else.

[ He remembers how Mahito worded it and rolls his eyes. ]

If I wish for something that makes sorcerers stronger than sorcerers at all times, it'll be fine or it'll offset whatever Mahito has in mind.

[ Hmm thinking. ]

I was hoping to use it to release myself from the prison box I'm in.

[rainbowings]

[bad.]

But aren't you also a sorcerer? Why wouldn't wishing for something that makes sorcerers stronger also benefit you and help you get out of your prison box? Couldn't you just...I dunno, break it?

[mukagen]

[ ............ ]

So... The one that sealed me in the box is also a sorcerer! Just a bad one, so we call them curse users. I think the problem with me in the box would stay the same.

[ Powering sorcerers means powering those, too. Gojou is thinking this logically, but lmao the canon sure was like fuck you gojou satoru. ]

And the box unfortunately is an ancient cursed item that seals anything in an unescapable pocket dimension. Kind of hard for me to break it from the inside.
