[shrugs] It can be a little intense for some audiences.

[moextispicy]

I'll deal with it, nipa~

[zettai]

Mm. Probably.

[She leans back and stays quiet, waiting for the show to begin. If you look ahead, you may notice that two seats several rows down were somehow filled when you weren't looking.]

[moextispicy]

[peers to see who they are]

[zettai]

[There's one redheaded girl, and one blonde figure with long hair. The two now seem to be talking to each other and trying to figure out where they are and who the other is, but it's hard to make out precisely what they're saying from this row.]

[moextispicy]

[heads down to eavesdrop]

[zettai]

[Lambda yells after you.]

Hey! These are pretty good seats, you know!

[moextispicy]

Will I get the most information from them?

[zettai]

You'll be able to see the show just fine from here.

[moextispicy]

Who are they?

[zettai]

To put it in terms relevant to you, two of Bern's pieces.

[moextispicy]

Why are they watching the show rather than in it?

[zettai]

That's a hasty conclusion to jump to.

[moextispicy]

[shrugs] They don't seem to be part of your show, if the best seat doesn't let you listen to them properly.

[zettai]

Their voices will get louder soon enough, don't worry.

[moextispicy]

[can guess what's meant by that, but just shrugs] All right. [settles back into her seat] Who are they besides pieces, anyway?

[zettai]

That one--[points]--is Ushiromiya Ange. Battler's little sister. As for that one... Ushiromiya Lion. It's a bit hard to explain to a newcomer, but you could think of that one as a miraculous existence.

[moextispicy]

[studies Lion thoughtfully] Is there a short version why?

[zettai]

You can think of that one as a nearly impossible "good end" existence for a certain someone. ... [giggle] Well, sort of.

[moextispicy]

[looks very thoughtful as she looks down on them]

[zettai]

[A voice rings out through the theater, as if announcing the start of the play.]

"What happened on that day, you ask? I'm not telling. Why don't you just give up and die?"

[Then suddenly, an expressionless figure dressed all in white appears on the stage.]

[moextispicy]

[watches silently, most of her attention on the stage but still sparing some of her attention for the other show]

[zettai]

[The stage lights grow brighter and brighter until they become blinding--then the stage soon becomes enveloped in a new story. You see the typical beginning of the Ushiromiya family conference, up to where they receive a letter from Beatrice at dinner.

In the audience, the pair seems to be speculating what this is all about.]

[moextispicy]

[turns to Lambda] Is this the normal path the game board takes?

[zettai]

[nods while grabbing a handful of popcorn] Mmhmm. Up 'till now is like the basics of the basics.
