[i'm going to say they're in the (spins wheel) penny arcade, unless alex would never set foot there for some reason.
anyway, yona stumbles across her while sipping at a mug of tea.]
Oh, it's you... hello again. [she smiles.] What are you doing?

[ she has never seen an arcade before she got here so there's a high, high chance she will have wandered back here to have another look around the place. ]
Hello.
I'm just looking around. It's... quite a lot, isn't it? This place.

It really is. I don't understand most of the things in here.

[IT'S STARGAZING TIME. yona has helpfully shown up with two mugs of tea. (belatedly, she realizes that maybe she should have asked to see if alex even likes tea, but she figures if she doesn't, she can just drink it herself.)
but. hm.]
...there aren't as many stars as I expected.

...there aren't as many stars as I expected.
I... [ hm ] I've never played them before but I know what they are, to a point? Maybe not how to play them though.
[ tea is good! alex likes tea. and she likes sitting there, curled up with her hands wrapped around the warmth of the cup just as much if not more. ]
You're right.
I think this is even less than I would see in the city... [ hm. ] Does space just look different when you're in the Realm?

I don't know. I guess that's something we could ask the Leaders...
[she sips at her tea.]
I wonder if they'd even be able to answer us, though. Or if maybe they've forgotten.

Games, mostly? I think. I haven't seen any where I live so I couldn't give specifics.
We won't know until we try.
[ ... ] At least the ones you can see seem pretty. Even if there's so few of them.

They definitely don't look like any games I've seen before...
[hm, indeed.]
[hm, indeed.]
[yona nods. yeah, they'll just have to try it.]
...mhm, they do. [...] If all of our worlds are connected, somehow, do you think this is the same sky we saw back home? Just... it looks different because this world is in a different place than ours were?

Some of them I've heard of, but not in this format? Like, uh-- [ she points over at the basketball one ] That one you can play in ways that aren't attached to a machine?
But... there weren't this few back home?
[ she points up at the sky, fingertip tracing the sparse stars in the sky like a dot-to-dot. ]
I don't know them specifically, but there were definitely more. Even with all the light pollution.

[she just kind of stares at the basketball game]
...what's the point of it?
...what's the point of it?
Right, but maybe this world is farther away. So it seems like there's less of them because they're harder to see from a distance.
You take a ball and throw it through the hoop. I guess normally you win prizes, on a game like this?
[ but, uh.... this isn't the most normal of situations so. ]

[ god she hopes so. ]
It could be that. At least the ones we can see still look pretty, right?

...I guess it could be good practice for aiming a throw...
[the basketballs look a little clunky, though.]

That's true! They're very pretty.
[she sips at her tea]
...some of the stars in that building looked familiar to me, but these ones don't, really. Do they look familiar to you?

Normally it's a proper game with teams and a court. But... I don't know the rules at all, other than you throw the ball so it goes through the hoop.
I think so? I couldn't say for sure but I think there were some that I could see back home up there.
[ she holds her tea a little closer to her, little the steam waft up ]
Then again, I could be mistaking them for ones I thought I've seen before.

...maybe we can figure it out! Do you want to try?
I guess it might be kind of hard to tell from the ground...
Okay!
[ she will grab one of the balls and squint between in and the hoop. lifting the ball above her head, she throws it and----
--- it hits the metal ring and bounces off. ]
-- Ah.
