Start of #MaidRPG buffer: Thu Jan 07 22:45:23 2010 [19:54:37] [One sunny morning...] [19:54:54] [Session Start] [19:55:04] [It's been a few days since last time.] [19:56:43] [It's a little chilly.] [20:03:36] * Minato stretches and goes about the morning rounds. And making breakfast, 'cuz pancakes and beef are delicious. [20:04:45] * Suin goes about her morning routine of dusting and secretly checking her video when no one's paying attention. Of course nothing to see here. [20:06:09] * THe video doesn't seem to have picked up anything new. [20:12:09] * You hear a noise upstairs. [20:13:11] * Minato serves delicious breakfast!.. then realizes Kentaro's not down yet. She grumbles and jumps up the stairs to Kentaro's room. [20:15:26] * A tall, blonde, handsome-looking man with a paper mask over his face stands awake in Kentaro's room. The mask is a picture of Kentaro, and a sign with "Kentaro" written on it is taped to his shirt. Kentaro is nowhere to be seen. [20:15:46] Oh, hello, Minato. Good morning. I've scheduled quite a busy day today. Lots of meetings, lots of things to be done. [20:15:57] SPY 'ROUND HERE! [20:16:14] * Suin goes up stairs with the sudden noise and...just stares at the scene in front of her. [20:16:26] * He heads downstairs. [20:16:38] Oh, good morning, Suin. [20:16:50] * Minato pulls out her nailbat and gets ready to beat the mask off of the man. [20:17:06] Breakfast smells lovely as ever. [20:18:16] * He heads down and has a seat. "Oh, pancakes!" [20:19:14] * Suin watches and then asides to Minato. "A moment." She goes in the secret passage in Kentaro's room and then is gone. [20:19:32] * Minato pauses. [20:21:03] * Suin checks the video. [20:21:59] * At some point, the bed, and the floor beneath it, simply... flips over and rotates like a bookshelf secret passage. Replacing itself with another bed and the strange new person. [20:24:52] * Suin manages to fast-forward or skip past most of Kentaro's normal day to day things [20:25:51] * Suin edges through that part of the video. Does she see any triggering mechanisms being tripped when it flips? [20:26:25] * Not that she can notice [20:27:08] * Minato twirls her bat and puts it head-first into the ground. A... notable dent is placed when she puts it down. She starts to whistle. [20:28:46] * Suin notes that and then slides back down the tube. She dusts herself off, but doesn't say anything or look at Minato. [20:30:46] * Suin then glances at Minato. "Minato-san..." [20:31:11] What's up,, yo? [20:31:18] * The strange man pokes his head into the room. "Oh, I believe today is laundry day, yes? Could you get that taken care of?" [20:31:22] * He leaves [20:32:20] * Suin ignores the strange man and taps the floor near the bed with her foot. "I would like you to hit the ground. Right here. With your bat. As hard as you can. Do you think you can do that?" [20:33:08] * Minato grins. "Sure thing, yo. [20:33:23] * Suin takes her foot away and moves well away from the area calmly after she says that. just in case Minato gets anxious. [20:35:39] * Minato stands there and winds up, delivering a blow to the floor, making a hollow sound. Minato licks her lip. "Was a little off, need to be about... here." [20:35:52] * The nailbat whacks the ground. [20:35:56] Careful up there. [20:37:00] * He sounds disapproving. [20:39:17] * Minato moves a little bit more and winds up again, smashing a hole through the door where the bed flipped last night. [20:40:08] * Beneath the floor, she finds a hollow area. Looks like it's made of steel. [20:40:22] * A tiny crawlspace. [20:41:19] * Minato hmmms. "Maybe we should deal with that other guy first." [20:41:34] Possibly [20:43:06] * Suin glances at Minato. "Shall you deal with him or shall I?" [20:45:16] Can you sneak up and hold'em? I'll go ahead and unmask the bugger, yo. [20:46:53] * Suin nods slightly and then pulls out a rope from the folds of her maid uniform, pulling it taut. "Shall we proceed?" [20:48:47] * Minato nods with a grin. [20:50:06] You should go down and distract him first. [20:51:06] * Minato heads down to do just that! Wherever !Kentaro is. [20:52:20] * Minato heads downstairs. She finds Kentaro talking to Suin. At least, that's what the sign says. [20:52:30] * Suin heads down to another room and prepares to put her assin skeelz to the test by being super stealthy-sneaky. [20:53:00] * If you ignore the sign, the other Suin looks kind of like three cardboard boxes stacked on top of each other. [20:54:02] * Minato whistles and walks over to !Suin with a sharpee and puts a line over Suin's name. [20:54:15] Oh, there you are, Mina- ! Where did Suin go?! [20:57:14] She had to take care of a few things. You know. She's... busy. What about you? Are you busy? [20:57:41] Oh, I'm doing some very masterly work. [20:58:01] Oh really... Like? [20:58:52] * Suin sneaks up behind !Kentaro and ties the rope around him faster than lightning and then says quietly. "Sorry, Master. I had to finish tying up loose ends." [20:59:01] Business meetings. Drinking tea. An- oh dear. [21:00:13] * Minato quickhandsnatches !Kentaro's mask off of him. "Let's see who you really are." [21:00:23] * THe mask comes off! [21:01:32] * Beneath the mask is nothing. It's just a black void, like he's hollow. Cracks run up and down his form, and he starts to break apart as the fragments are drawn into the blackness. [21:01:46] * The void starts to grow in size, and the chair breaks apart and gets sucked in. [21:02:08] Uh... [21:02:25] * You start to feel a bit of a pull too [21:02:50] * Minato sharpies Kentaro's name out on the mask and quickly writes 'Floor Lamp' beneath it and throws the mask back onto the 'guy'. [21:02:53] * The rope, too, is caught in the event horizon [21:03:16] * The black hole is covered and all is as normal [21:03:20] * Suin lets go of the rope and then jumps back in order to avoid being sucked in. [21:03:31] * The chair falls back out and reassembles itself. [21:03:36] * And you seem to have a new floor lamp. [21:05:15] That... was weird. [21:05:25] Totally weird, yo. [21:05:37] * Suin looks at it a moment. "A new unusual hazard it would seem. I do not know how to kill it." [21:05:59] Maybe best not to think about it, yo. [21:06:20] We shall have to. [21:06:36] What are the odds of Kentaro-san lifting off the sheet once we get him back as his first objective? [21:07:15] Pretty high, yo. Let's get'em back first, though. [21:07:33] Then we can move the 'lamp'. [21:07:44] On second thought... [21:07:50] He will probably wonder why we have a new lamp. [21:08:04] We could change it to something else. [21:08:17] No. That is fine. Let's go. [21:08:47] * Minato runs off to get Kentaro back! Crawlspace go! [21:10:23] * She heads to the crawlsapce! [21:10:49] * Suin follows Minato [21:11:23] * You find an upside-down bed frozen in a block of ice. You can barely make out Kentaro sleeping in it. [21:14:04] * Suin tries to see what else is in the crawl space [21:14:50] * There's a switch. [21:15:01] * Suin presses the switch. [21:15:16] * Minato waits for bacon. [21:16:15] * The bed flips back up above. [21:16:23] * Still frozen, though [21:16:54] * Minato crawls out of the crawlspace, provided there are no other buttons on display. [21:17:33] * It's nice and roomy in Kentaro's room. [21:18:17] * Minato knocks on the block of ice. Is it solid? [21:18:52] * Yep. [21:21:23] ... Flamethrower? [21:21:25] Well this makes as much sense as the other part. [21:21:58] * Minato shrugs. "A wizard did it, yo." [21:22:05] It would likely be too fast. I doubt the master would appreciate much being set on fire. [21:22:55] * Suin ponders something then takes out her own sharpie and writes "Melted Ice" on the ice. [21:23:05] * Minato thinks. "Or he might like it too much." [21:23:54] Maybe hot water then? If I smash it it might break HIM, and he wouldn't like that. [21:25:23] * The writing doesn't seem to work so great [21:26:32] It was worth a try. [21:26:42] Hot water. [21:26:48] Oh, I got it, yo. [21:27:26] * Minato runs down and grabs the mask from the former !Suin and slaps the mask onto the block of ice. Then sharpies 'Melted Ice' onto the mask. [21:27:59] * nnnnnnope [21:28:04] Aw damn. [21:29:16] Will you do the honors then? [21:30:41] Sure, but where we gonna get a pool that big, yo? [21:30:59] * Minato looks outside. Is there a pool conveniently out the window? [21:32:43] * There is, indeed, a pool. Every mansion should have one. And an outdoor onsen. [21:35:29] * Minato grins. "Convenient." [21:37:02] * Minato picks up the bedcube and takes a few steps back, then runs forward and chucks it out the mansion through the wall, landing it in the pool just outside. She thumbs-up to Suin. [21:37:13] * CRASH* [21:37:35] * The bed slides into the pool. Thankfully, the ice doesn't shatter. [21:37:40] * That would be bad. [21:38:33] Very convenient. [21:39:04] * Suin leaps out the hole to prepare to fish Kentaro out if by chance he can't swim. [21:39:21] * The ice is melting, but pretty slowly. [21:39:43] * Minato leaps down after Suin, in perparation to fish the bed out which likely can't swim. [21:44:49] * Some time later, the bed thaws out. [21:44:53] @_@ [21:45:02] * He flails in the water, slowly making his way to a ladder. [21:45:55] Welcome back, yo. [21:46:04] * Minato offers a hand to help Kentaro out of the water. [21:46:26] * He gets dragged out. @_@ [21:46:31] Wh-what happened? [21:50:15] Spy, yo. [21:50:39] I'm freezing... x.x [21:51:37] * Minato fishes out a convenient towel and gets it over Kentaro. [21:52:56] * He slowly starts making his way back to the house [21:54:55] * Minato walks back behind Kentaro and throws her arm over his shoulder. "So what were thinking about when freezing, yo?" She grins. [21:55:06] I just wanna be warm... x.x [21:55:36] * Minato thinks. "Well, you're beds kinda in the pool. You got other rooms until we get yours fixed, yo." [21:56:44] * He nods. "Right... um... lunch first... and ... I'm soaked... hm.." [21:57:05] You gotta change clothes, yo. [22:00:19] It is a bit early for lunch as well. Though perhaps we should get you inside. [22:01:43] * He heads into the house, a tad grumpy. [22:03:29] * Minato heads inside and goes ahead with making another batch of pancakes. [22:03:44] * Minato idly calls the construction company to deliver some materials to fix a wall too. [22:05:15] * Suin walks in behind Kentaro. "I can fix you a hot bath and some tea if you would like." [22:05:33] * Minato can be heard in the kitchen, singing something in... German? [22:06:15] * Kentaro blinsk. "Oh... that'd be great. Thanks." [22:08:09] * Suin disappears suddenly to start working on it. [22:11:04] * Kentaro heads into the kitchen, having nothing better to do. "Uh... thanks for breaking me out there." [22:11:45] No problem, yo. [22:13:07] * The kitchen heat, and smell of food, is doing some good for him [22:13:32] * Suin finishes drawing the bath and starts on the tea. [22:14:28] * Minato eventually serves some more delicious pancakes, as nobody's actually had breakfast yet. [22:14:59] * Kentaro eats happily. ^^ [22:15:35] Say, Minato, I was wondering. You can do all this stuff, right? Why did you become a maid? ?_? [22:20:30] * Minato stays pretty quiet for a moment as she stops for a moment, with her back turned to Kentaro. "That's, uh... Why, yo?" [22:21:05] I dunno... you're just really, really capable. And strong. Super strong. [22:22:57] Some folks in the family thought it'd do me good, yo. Dunno why. [22:22:59] * Minato shrugs. [22:23:08] Oh. Okay. [22:23:12] * He eats his pancakes. [22:25:06] * Suin pours tea for Kentaro, just taking it all in quietly. [22:25:32] You're really good at this. [22:32:41] * Kentaro enjoys the tea too. [22:32:47] You too, Suin [22:33:10] * Suin starts for a moment. "Me too, what?" [22:33:45] Um.. you make good stuff? [22:35:32] * Suin stands up proper. "That is what a maid is meant to do, is it not? Nothing more." [22:36:02] Uh... right. ... oh! The bath. That's ready, yeah? [22:39:35] It is ready when you are prepared, yes. [22:39:49] * He nods. "I'll go take that bath, then. Thanks!" [22:39:55] * He heads off, leaving the two of you alone [22:41:28] * Suin shakes her head and watches Kentaro go. "We should move the "lamp"." [22:41:42] * Minato nods. [22:43:01] * Suin goes and takes the lamp out for garbage pickup. [22:44:06] [End Session] End of #MaidRPG buffer Thu Jan 07 22:45:23 2010
