YOU-KAI CLOTHES OFFERINGS LIVE

[emptymind]

Who: any, all
Where: hotel lobby
When: day 355, immediately after the Release

[ a masked girl calls a live in the middle of the hotel lobby, right in the midst of any traffic going in or out ]

Everyone, thank you for your attention. This is an offering live, for which I would be particularly gratified to receive articles of clothing.

To put it another way, if there are any outfits you would like me to wear, I will happily wear them.

[ a beat, and then she reaches up, tugging down the mouth covering and moving the inugami mask to sit on the side of her head, revealing blue eyes ringed with violet set in a potentially familiar face. ]

And, hello again.

Comments

[emptymind]

... No. Actually, I'm really mad.

[ ... ]

But I-

... this is how it is.

[purrrnicious]

You're mad?

[Her tail lashes and her fists clench and it kinda looks like she's not sure if she should take a swing at Harpy, start crying, or hug her.

Maybe all three???]

[emptymind]

... No. Actually, let's forget I said that.

[ clears her throat ]

You-kai would like to extend an alliance offer to avante en garde.

[purrrnicious]

. . .








[Shoves her and stalks off to the opposite side of the lobby.]

[emptymind]

[ ... pulls her face covering back up too

she hesitates but then follows ]

Um, I do need a reply... If you want me to ask someone else I will. But- I thought I'd leave it in Kohime's hands.

[purrrnicious]

[Pausing, her tail twitching, before she turns back again.]

Me? Why me?

[emptymind]

... Kohime, and Commodore maybe, are the only ones who might not forgive me right away. But Commodore probably still wouldn't say anything.

[purrrnicious]

So, what, you think letting me decide if we're in an alliance will get my forgiveness?

[emptymind]

... No. I think you're probably right not to forgive me.

But this would help avante en garde, too. You-kai will probably be more bloodthirsty than we'd...

[ you'd? we'd? ]

Well, anyway, we're playing to win.

[purrrnicious]

[Her tail lashes sharply as she mulls it over for a few moments...]

. . .It's a conditional yes. I have to check and make sure the rest of them will back me.

[emptymind]

... Yeah. I understand.

Thank you, Kohime.

[purrrnicious]

[After some discussion...]

Fine. Sounds like we might go for it –– but we need to know your whole unit is onboard, and what you expect from us. Is it just that we don't hit you in whatever awful game they're probably going to run?

[emptymind]

[ her ears perk up straight ]

-I'll ask Kozuru-kun and the others if they have anything else in mind. Actually, maybe it would be good for all of both units to talk...? But there are a lot of us, so that could get a little messy... I'll talk to all of them and see if I can get a list of conditions, and maybe a smaller group of representatives.

[purrrnicious]

Yeah, probably. Can you get some of the less, uh. . .

Just get some that probably won't wanna stab anyone and maybe meet with us. Your whole unit's gotta be on board if we're going to do this.

[emptymind]

I haven’t really asked which of them are inclined to stab anyone yet... Maybe I could just ask them to leave weapons at the door...?

Anyway, I got it.
