The Ryokan Meme/Mingle/Whatever

A ryokan (旅館) is a type of traditional Japanese inn that originated in the Edo period (1603–1868), when such inns served travelers along Japan's highways. They typically feature tatami-matted rooms, communal baths, and other public areas where visitors may wear yukata and talk with the owner.

Welcome to the inn!You've won an all-expenses-paid trip for two (or more!) to a gorgeous traditional Japanese inn. What's what? You're not from a place where inns like this would exist? Hush up, kids. This is a meme and we do whatever we damn well please.Just pack your bags, get your plus one and prepare to have what'll probably be the most relaxing week of your life. You know, if you're into all this.

Hmm... I think it was down here! 127, right? Let's go, let's go!

[She hefts up the bags again and marches forward.]

[korekara]

Let's gooooooo!

[ and there she goes, hurrying after Haruka and eyeing the bags she's heaving along. ]

Man, how much did you end up packing?

[mopocalypse]

Uhh... well, you see, I wanted to see how much would fit in the bag, maybe? Or maybe that's not quite it. Meringue wanted to come too, so he had to have his own luggage, of course, it's only fair! Or I didn't really know what all stuff there was to do up here and just figured I'd take all my important things? One of those. Actually, probably all of them. Life is a complicated thing, dear Honochi.

[ looking at Haruka's bags

up at Haruka

back to the bags

then back to Haruka ]

... you didn't... pack Meringue in there, did you?

[mopocalypse]

Uh, kind of? He's safe in his ball. I couldn't fit all his stuff in his ball, though, so he got his own suitcase... Wait, I never told you how he hides when I smuggle him into class and stuff, did I?

[korekara]

Oh! Wow, geez, I was kind of imagining you'd just packed him in there with your shoes or something...

[ like you'd probably end up doing, Honoka.

she grabs Haruka's hand and starts tugging her along. ]

Anyway, c'mon, c'mon! Let's hit our room!

[ AWAY WE GO ]

[mopocalypse]

[TO THE ROOM. It's pretty average for this kind of place, and Haruka sets all her bags out on one side and rummages through the suitcases until she finds a Poké Ball and holds it up.]

Here it is!

[korekara]

[ Honoka dumps all her bags and promptly starts nosing around the room with a bright smile on her face, evidently delighted to be here. When she hears Haruka pipe up, she turns around and nods eagerly. ]

Yeah, yeah! Let him out! We can all go for a walk together!

[mopocalypse]

Okay!

[how are you going to explain this -- well, that doesn't seem to matter, as she's letting him out. The Psyduck tilts his head, sees the two of them, and waves.]

There you are! We're here! Honochi wants to go walking, so maybe you can find some rocks.

[Meringue quacks excitedly as Haruka adjusts the little ribbon on his head.]

[korekara]

He's so cuuuuute! Haruharu-chan, that ribbon is on point.

[ Off Honoka goes to root around their room for yukatas. She wants to make sure she's completely and appropriately dressed for this occasion, okay. ]

Oh, hey! What size are you, anyway? They usually order them by small, medium and large... but that's not a whole lot of help, is it?

[mopocalypse]

My measurements on my school ID are 81/59/82! [dear canon, please feed your animes, she's supposed to be average] That help?
