Most of these characters belong to Takeuchi Naoko. I just asked Motoki and friends to tell us some tales.
Making plans, building dreams
It was finally hitting Motoki, now that the contract was signed, the loan was approved, and tomorrow he would at the lawyer's office to sign the last bit of the paperwork. He was purchasing the Crown. They were shutting down many of their arcades, but they gave Motoki a chance to purchase the business. 'Of course, I can't keep the name, but I'll figure it out. Maybe I'll hold a contest to see what we should be called now. Maybe I could just leave the crown on the door, and drop the name. Then everyone will still recognize it.' He refilled Mamoru's coffee cup after he topped off his. It had already been a long night, taking stock off all the things in the arcade, determining what had to be shipped back to Crown, Inc and what was staying. Luckily Mamoru had agreed to help, and was just as good as Motoki at reading the invoices sent by the company. 'It was all in the contract, but we had to have everything marked before the final signing tomorrow. And now that that is complete, we can plan out what I want to do with this place.'
Motoki looked down at the plans spread out across the table. The small rooms that were currently used to store Crown paper work, as well as all the promotional materials since the arcade had opened drew his attention. He was going to have to pack it all up and ship it out next week. Tapping the paper, he smiled. "I think we should move the virtual reality games to these rooms."
Mamoru raised an eyebrow. "They are already set up in these three rooms. Why move them?" He touched three rooms that were closer to the front of the store.
Motoki grinned. "They don't need as much space, and the rooms they are in are large. The new rooms are smaller."
"Then what are you planning to move into these rooms?" Mamoru waited for the answer he could see Motoki fighting to contain.
"Karaoke rooms. They need space, the renovations will be easy, and they are the newest rage." The delight in Motoki's face was contagious.
"The girls will love that." Mamoru could see Usagi and her entourage taking up residence in one of the rooms.
Motoki swept his hand across the section of the floor plan that housed the older, virtually unused games. "I was thinking of expanding the cafe through this part of the building."
Mamoru tapped the area closest to the rest of the arcade. "Maybe some DDR machines in this area. They are really popular, and their music sounds really close to Parapara music. It will provide music and entertainment for the people eating."
Motoki ran his hand through his hair. "Sounds good." He glanced at his watch. "It's already that late! I have to be at the lawyers early tomorrow, I mean this, morning. "
Mamoru collected the coffee mugs. "I've got these, you handle the paperwork." He waved the mugs in the direction of the pile of invoices and stuff stacked on another table.
As the left the store, Motoki locked the door behind him. Soon, this place would officially be his.
