<sub>[ So basically, this is a day in the life of Taiwan. ]

[ A Morning. You're out on the streets, right? Then you see a flash of pink speed by. Your imagination? Nah, she's not that fast. It's Taiwan on her pink! motorscooter with a matching pink!! helmet. You should move out of the way if you know what's best for you. ]</sub>

Woohoo!

<sub>[ Sorry about the coffee on your shirt or whatever. ]

[ B It's lunchtime. At the diner, she's reviewing her notes for her English lessons! Squinting from time to time. Is she reading this right? Well, whatever. They are going very smoothly... Haha... She is reading so loud. ]</sub>

Hello James I am here how are you I, _{[ squint ]} I am waiting for long time...

<sub>[ Eats a french fry. She is concentrating so hard. ]

[ C Afternoon. brb ringing your doorbell. If you answer right away, she's clutching her case of products awkwardly. ]</sub>

Hi! Um, so I'm supposed to be selling you this really tacky makeup right now, but I kind of feel sorry for whoever has to buy it. The colors are too bright and I like a more natural look, you know? So I don't get to use the samples much even if I could. But if you want a makeover, I can give you one. Leave it to me! You have to pay, though, or I'll get droned. _{[ total lie ]} Ah, but what I'm really here for is... I mean. I wanna know more about Mayfield. Do you have some time?

<sub>[ You can interrupt her spiel anytime. ]

[ D Nighttime. She is in her room, in her pajamas, eating pudding with a spoon. Singing J-pop and K-pop songs out loud. Like this one. Or this one. Even if it's a summer song. Man she wouldn't know it's cute okay. Jumping on the bed, aww yeah! The spoon is her makeshift microphone. Being bored in the fifties is hard. Neighbors might hear her and may chuck things at the window... Oh yeah. She forgot to close the curtains. Maybe they can see her dancing to Gee.

Or maybe they can hear her singing in the phones, too, because she totally knocked the phone over while covering a KARA song. ]

(ooc: Also! Also also also. CR chart is up, but incomplete. I'll be getting around the rest who replied to me on the CR meme, but feel free to comment so I can have your character added. Comment with the icon you want me to use, too, if you like. ;u;)</sub>

( Elizabeth answers the door with a bundle of fabric in one hand, and what seems to be a (slightly badly drawn) design in the other. )

More about Mayfield? ( beat. ) What sort of things do you want to know?

[naicha]

Anything, everything! _{[ She just waltzes in, yeahhh. ]} Like, do the cakes in the store ever change? What about the clothes in that other store? And what's this I've been hearing about the milk?

_{[ d-does a double-take dskfbh whispers harshly into the phone ]}

You weren't supposed to hear that.

[naicha]

... Hey, hey, do you know what comes after, _{[ sings it quickly ]} "Neomu neomu meotjyeo nooni nooni busyeo, sumeul moht shigesseo tteollineun geol?" I can't remember.

[asdflkl

A boy girl person who looks kind of like Jessica will be freaking out over here.]

[naicha]

_{[ She definitely knows Jessica. She'll make a sharp U turn and come back eventually. ]}

Ahaha, sorry about that, Jessie! I got a little excited and...

_{[ oh ]} Jessie?

Oh. _{[ idea ]} You can buy some for jiejie! Then she can look pretty on her date with her alien boyfriend.

C.

[coolbowtie.livejournal.com]

....Makeup?

[naicha]

Makeup. _{[ a nod ]} It's supposed to be a totally neat job, but no one really buys anything. I guess they think they're pretty. _{[ headtilt ]} Or they just like being ugly.

[ suuuup. she's also at the diner, and is waving at you right now! ] Hey! Taiwaaaaan! [ s-so loud...! ignores all the Looks the drones are giving her. ]

[politerudeness.livejournal.com]

[ ...But why is she singing Korean songs? Well, if there are Japanese among them, that's okay! He's just going to open the door a little and politely tell her to be a bit more discreet and maybe keep it down just a bit.....






oh god oh god he can't do it. he can't. so cute so cute so cuuuute aaah she's dancing! he'll just... be peeking through the tiny crack in the door and trying not to make a sound. ]

[naicha]

A

[encored]

[o-oh being nearly run down by the living embodiment of pink, that's something new]

At least aim for the drones if you're going to do that, yes?

[naicha]

_{[ screeeeeches to a stop ]} Ooh, haha. Sorry. I just got really excited... _{[ takes off her helmet ]}

Ah, it's Charles! Did you like my present? <sub>[ Let's say she delivered it.

And let's say it was utterly adorable. ]</sub>

[lotuslife.livejournal.com]

[leaning over her shoulder, pointing at a portion of the page.]

No, that's wrong. It says 'I'm waited for longest time'. [No, Vietnam, that's wrong, too...]

[naicha]

Oh, I see! <sub>[ Rewrites that, because Vietnam is better than her at English, right!

wait something's not right....... ]</sub>

... Ah, jiejie. What are you doing here? Aren't you on a diet?

C

[sting-like-a.livejournal.com]

[wrinkling her nose at the makeup]

I reaaaally don't like wearing that stuff... and those colors really are tacky, ew! [pause] But I can tell you lots about Mayfield, sure!

[naicha]

Okay! I'm Taiwan. What's your name? Oh, you can start by telling me how long you've been here. _{[ tries to... squeeze in the doorway and get in lmao ]}

[pygmalion-perv.livejournal.com]

[Derp derp here's Hachibe walking home in the evening when he hears some decidedly non-1950s-America music coming from one of the houses on his street. He glances up at Taiwan's window, catching sight of her shakin' DAT ASS to some sweet K-pop jams.]

[naicha]

<sub>[ Oh, Hachibe. Vietnam has DAT ASS. Taiwan's got the legs. Doesn't matter, though, she's still shaking it. Dancing to Genie, yeah. O-oh, accidentally back up into the window.

turns around...

Ah.

Ah... ]</sub>

B is for... bushbabies!

[tsuntiger.livejournal.com]

[Guess who kinda figured out skating!!! Okay no, she still slips all over the place but she doesn't spill food anymore. Taiga's just gonna skate on over with a surprise:

Ice cream with only the best sparkles, of course. She leans in close over Taiwan's papers, bound to get her attention there would be cleavage showing if she had it, haha]

Psst, this is on the house. Don't tell anyone!

[naicha]

_{[ hahaha pettanko OH MY GOSH ICE CREAM WITH SPARKLES that definitely catches her attention. Wait, what? ]}

Eh!?

_{[ Her eyes shift left and right. O-oh. ]}

Is it really okay? You won't get caught? _{[ Worried that she might get droned or something. ]}

C

[meandalexander.livejournal.com]

[A four year old girl answers the door] Huh? Makeover?

[naicha]

That's right! _{[ She kneels down so that she's at Nina's level ]} Do you wanna try? I can make you look really pretty if you want.

C

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

. . . Miss Taiwan? What's a makeover?

[naicha]

A makeover is something you give to someone when you want to make them pretty. _{[a beat.]} Or handsome.

[haematological.livejournal.com]

[just kind of stands there mutely while Taiwan talks at her]

I-I think so?

[wait what did she just agree to]

[naicha]

Oh, good! Do you know what kind of people usually end up here? _{[ kind of just. forces herself in the house lmao. ]} I know there are a lot of nations! Vampires, too.

[survived]

Taiwan? Moi! I don't.... really need make up.
