The curtains are drawn, and the lights are dim. Everyone is silent, well, mostly everyone. There are some cats in the back shoving popcorn into their maws, and who can blame them. However, everyone is a little sad.

It's day 29, which means that the last day is tomorrow, and that makes everyone sad. But everyone made a pact before Gaystripe began that day. They promised each other that they wouldn't be sad too much.

In order to be sure that the day they were currently experiencing was good, they all have to be as happy as they promised they'd be, and so far, that seemed not to be an issue because Gaystripe isn't even here yet.

Random Cat #1: Gaystripe?

Random Cat #2: Hellloooo?

Random Cat #3: ANYONE HOME??

Random Cat #4: ????????? HELLO!! WE'RE HERE FOR SOME PRIIIDE

The curtains still are closed and this seems to panic a few cats. However, overall, everyone is calm still, so everyone just sort of meanders around, waiting for something to happen.

And then the curtains are instantly thrown open, and lights flash brightly as a classic graphic falls down upon the back of the stage. Just like that, Gaystripe dashes out with an excited grin.

Gaystripe: Hello everyone, and welcome to Day Twenty Nine of 30 Days of Pride!

Audience: WOOHOO!!

Everyone tosses popcorn and soda around, though they return to their seats as soon as they'd abandoned them. Gaystripe grins once more, clearly having already had three cups of coffee. He bows once more and then begins to speak again.

Gaystripe: Day Twenty Nine is the day of panromantics!

Gaystripe: Remember last time how we talked about biromantics, and the day before that homoromantics? This is super similar, except it's just a little bit different.

Gaystripe: Remember day 5, back when we learned about pansexuals?

Audience: YEAH!! We talked to PANSAND and GINGERPAW. How could we FORGET??

Gaystripe: Well, good, 'cuz it's still relevant.

Audience: When are Gingerpaw and Pansand NOT relevant

Gaystripe: That's actually a good question. ANYWAYS, remember how those who are pansexual can love anyone? In a way, it's similar to not really seeing someone's gender or sex when being in a relationship with them.

The audience nods after shoving more popcorn in their mouth.

Gaystripe: Well good! Because this, panromantic, is the same thing. See how it has the same prefix? The first part of the word, of course, that's what a prefix is. Anyways, since it has the same prefix, they're each other's counterparts.

Graystripe: So, that means that being panromantic means that you can get into romantic relationships with cats regardless of their gender or sex, and note how I said romantic! It's that for a reason and not sexual.

Gaystripe: Because pansexual and panromantic mirror each other in the sense that if you take away one aspect of a relationship, for example sexual attraction, you're left with the opposing thing, that means that some cats who are pansexual will call themselves panromantic, vice versa.

Gaystripe: Though, not everyone who uses this term is pansexual! Like the previous two days, we mentioned that those who are asexual sometimes have romantic relationships, though they aren't sexual.

Gaystripe: So that means some of the cats who use this term are asexual and panromantic, meaning they can have romantic attraction and romantic relationships to whoever without considering their gender, but not sexual attraction.

The audience pauses, shoves a few pawfuls of popcorn into their mouths, glances at each other, spots a panromantic flag waving in the distance, and with that they nod their heads.

Gaystripe: Good, so you all understand?

Audience: Yep!

Gaystripe: Well good, because I'm tired even though I had my usual coffee.

The cats look confused for a moment before he slicks back his hair and snickers a little too loudly as the lights flash brighter around him.

Gaystripe: Never mind. Anyways, because today's day 29, that means we only have one day left, and that's tomorrow's day!

The cats frown though they don't say anything. Their promise, of course!

Gaystripe: Are you not sad? *tears well up in his eyes*

Random Cat #2: WE ARE, WE ARE. We just kind of want to enjoy today and save the sadness for tomorrow, you get me?

Gaystripe: That's fair. So with that, we'll end day 29 then!

Random Cat #3: Yep!!

Gaystripe: COOL. 

Gaystripe: Thanks to everyone for tuning in so far, that's the end of today's day of pride! Enjoy the rest of your day and have a wonderful night!

With that, he screams and launches himself into the crowd, and instantly everyone begins to cheer as the lights flash even brighter than they previously had.
