You know you don't have to tell me when you've bullied them, right?

[ they're just out here minding their business, idly poking at some classical instruments. are these things even real, how do people play them ]

What business, anyway?

[lefthandpath]

I thought you'd appreciate it as a kind of pick-me-up.

And just simple business of seeing what deals can be made to continue getting my Innocence back, mostly. I've gotten started on it, already, and I'd like to continue.

[grigori]

[ ... ]

If someone took your innocence from you, I don't think I can help with it.

[ ?????? ]

[lefthandpath]

... do you all have to make this joke? Is there a contract that obligates it?

My holy weapon left arm.

{how did a white clown like him get put with you augustes???]

[grigori]

[ it wasn't even a joke ok they're just very confused ]

How am I supposed to just know what you mean? We don't have that stuff where I'm from. [ huffs. ] What's it do, anyway?

[lefthandpath]

... my apologies. Rameel made a similar comment only...

[y'know. like Rameel does.]

It's a weapon that's used to destroy akuma and purify the souls the akuma use to power themselves. I've already got the start of it back by dealing with Rameel, so I was looking to unlock whatever comes next.

[grigori]

Okay... But if that's what it's for, how you think it's supposed to help you here? Are you thinking there are akuma around, or what?

[lefthandpath]

Judging by how people keep coming back a mess from those "adventures", I need a weapon of some kind. My arm is a weapon--not just for purification. It'll work fine even without akuma.

[grigori]

Okay, uh... [ they're bad at this task assignment thing hhhhh ] Perform something for three people, I guess?

[lefthandpath]

... "something"...? Nothing more specific?

[grigori]

If you want something specific, I could tell you to perform three concerts.

[ with... what instruments ]

[lefthandpath]

... Mr. Yomiel, you should be more specific but also it should be something I have the ability to do with what I have with me, right...?

[grigori]

You have a voice, don't you?

[ allen asked for this so now they're going to have fun with it lmao ]

[lefthandpath]

So a singing concert for three people, is it?

Can it be for a group, then?

[grigori]

Sounds too easy.

[ and yet, they shrug. ] But I'll allow it.

[lefthandpath]

Entertaining a crowd is actually a lot more difficult...

But thank you, Yomiel.

[grigori]

I was nervous the first time I did it, too, but you get used to it.

...It's the least I can do.

[lefthandpath]

Oh? You've performed for crowds before? Any advice, then?

[grigori]

Yeah - concerts, though, so it might be a little different from whatever you end up doing.

As for advice... just focus on what you want them to feel or the experience you want to give them, and lean on whatever talents you've got to make it a reality. A performance doesn't have to be perfect to do what you want it to.

[lefthandpath]

Ah, so it really is kind of similar to what I'm used to with street performing. That's a relief.

[grigori]

That something to do with the clown thing?

[lefthandpath]

That's right. I earn money by doing street-side performances in towns.

[grigori]

I mean... if it works, then sure. Why not?

[lefthandpath]

It definitely works.

So if you ever need some entertainment for a distraction or cheering up, please feel free to call on my services in that.
