FIRST PERSON•

I deadpan when I see a message from my best friend Quinn.

They were right beside me. Confusion fades into my face. I look over to them and I open my mouth to speak, but when I do, I get cut off my them.

"Watch it." They demand. And I am even more confused.

"What are you making me watch?" I ask, curious then mixing in with the confusion.

I open the notification from Quinn to see a png download. Hesitantly, I tap on my screen to download the image or video.

Eventually, it's done downloading and I tap on my screen once again to open the video, and I see someone dressed up as Goofy from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, dancing or some shit.

I deadpan with concern. I look over to my friend and speak. "Quinn, what the actual fuck is this-?" I say, quietly because my family was sleeping and I was not aloud to cuss.

"It's Goofy" they say, all happy and giddy whilst I was concerned for their mental stability and physical and mental health.

"Where's the bleach?" I ask, Quinn replies with;

"I stole your bleach." I deadpan. Then I open my mouth to ask another question.

"Ok, soap?" I ask again. Quinn replies with;

"I stole your soap" at this point, I was just going to give up. Then I ask another question.

"What have you stolen?" I ask once again. And Quinn replies with;

"The store." I look at them with confusion and concern. How does a being steal a store?

"How the fuck do you steal a store-?" I ask. They shrug.

"Welp. You're not getting my extra plane ticket to Japan" I say. And immediately, Quinn says this:

"I replaced it all with ✨premium stuff so it's better then what you had." They say as i beam with joy.

•TIME SKIP•

A week later, me and Quinn are sitting at the airport waiting for our plane to be called. When it is, we board it and start doing the shit we usually do together. (Draw, play games, etc.).

"I'm gonna have a nap. I'm getting tired." I say, as they looked in my direction, listening carefully to my words.

"Alright, have a good rest." They say, as I pull my blanket up to get the needed warmth. I lay down and i slowly fall asleep.

About 4 or 5 hours later, I am shaken away by Quinn. They open their mouth to speak to me.

"Hey, wake up, we're landing now, so gather your stuff." They say. I slowly get up from my slumber and start to gather my shit as I was told. I didn't want to loose anything on this plane.

After we land we all get off the plane. We explored the busy city, slowly getting used to the crowds and busy roads.

Eventually we find a blossom tree forest, and we decide to explore there.

Then I hear a gasp coming from Quinn. They either saw a really cute thing on Pinterest or something, but I was completely wrong.

"What-?" I say. They extend their arm in front of my face to point at the thing they were actually looking at. I look over to where they were pointing and I hun a little bit.

"Hm. Their cosplays are really good." I say, staring off into space as I took a sip of my Peace Tea lost in thought. 'Their cosplays look so real... maybe they're not cosplayers.." I add to my compliment in my head. I would soon learn that they were the actual characters from the show K-On!.

"They look oddly similar to the actual characters though.." I say, tilting my head over to Quinn so I could make sure they were actually ingaged with the conversation. But I see that they are not ingaged at all. In fact, they weren't even there. They walked over to the "cosplayers". I follow.

When I get there, I see Quinn doing weird shit with the "Ritsu cosplayer" and i deadpan. I shake off that emotion and tilt my head to look at the "Mio cosplayer". I open my mouth to speak as Mio hasn't turned her head to look back, but it looks like she noticed be trying to start up a conversation with her, but it looks like she doesn't even want to talk.

"You're cosplays are really good" I finally say. Confusion slowly fading into the girls faces. Ritsu looks at me.

"What cosplays?" She asks. And I look at her.

"Aren't you guys cosplaying? Is there, like, a convention around?" I ask, confusion now fading into my face as well.

"No- " she replies. Then all of a sudden, me and Quinn look at each other "are these girls actually Mio Akiyama and Ritsu Tainaka?!" I thought. And I knew Quinn was thinking the same thing.
