Start of #MaidRPG buffer: Sun Mar 22 21:44:23 2009 [19:39:30] [It's a cool foggy morning in the Kingdom of Betron, and in a tall tower, the lady Nisha sleeps. You all live in the tower, which is not a bad place to live, with a few magic items around to make life more convenient, and you serve the lady.] [19:39:33] [Session Start] [19:39:54] [Lady Nisha likely still sleeps.] [19:40:36] * Five spends a lot of her time in the kitchen, cooking for the people living there. It was one of the few non-violent things that she was really good at... perhaps a leftover from the time when she cut other things. [19:42:05] * Shien_Ran sits untidily in the corner, leafing through a fashion magazine and eating a lollipop. [19:42:22] * Father_Molestron unscrews his normal hand from his wrist and attaches his special knocking hand before rapping on Nisha's door. "Dear Nisha! It is time to rise and face a new day!" [19:44:11] * Nisha stirs awake. She's a young lady with red hair and purple robes, let's say. "I'm awake." [19:44:19] * Sweetbeam sighs. Time to slave away another day. Literally. (S)he spends her time on the usual grind of slave chores, the lowest of the low. [19:46:00] * Shien_Ran looks up, sighs inaudibly, then picks herself up and puts on her HAPPY GENKI face. [19:46:32] * Father_Molestron pushes open the door and sets his knocking hand to beckon, the mechanical hand twitching back and forth spastically. "Come, sister. If the hired help is worth serving you, breakfast will be ready as we speak." [19:47:28] * She nods. "Very well." [19:47:47] * Five was, in fact, making breakfast as they spoke. She had already prepared a bit of light and dry meat to go with a simple yet elegant breakfast consisting mainly of freshly made bread. [19:48:31] * Shien_Ran sets the table! With extra GENKI! "La la la~~a! Table-nya! Fork goes here! Spoon goes here! Napkins, oh so pretty-nya!" [19:49:30] * Five shakes her head and even though she was not that old, she said in a mature voice, "We don't need spoons right now. But do get one some knives." [19:49:45] * Sweetbeam tries to finish up scrubbing the floor of the dining room. "Oh, geez." She fumbles with the sponge - Scrubbing is hard! [19:50:41] Knives-for-Five! Knives-for-Five! La la la, la la NYA! (sotto voce) [19:50:49] (Oops) [19:50:59] (sotto voce) Just drop dead, wouldja? [19:51:39] (FAKE-sotto voice) I can help you with that dropping dead thing. [19:52:13] * Lady Nisha starts heading downstairs. "Oh, breakfast!" She has a seat. Then starts eating. :9 [19:52:25] Ah, tasty. [19:52:56] * Five starts serving breakfast, with a hearty soup added as they start to eat. [19:53:41] * She smiles. "Good morning, everyone." [19:54:04] * Shien_Ran stands nearby, ready to serve Mistress Nisha! "Good mo~orning-nya!" [19:54:22] * Five doesn't stop serving breakfast, but does pause to say, "Good morning my lady. How are you feeling today?" [19:55:01] * She thinks. "I'm feeling... good, but something is missing." [19:55:33] * Sweetbeam dumps the sponge and crawls to sit beside Nisha, bowing low and tail flicking back and forth above, "Good morrrrning, m'lady." (S)he purrs, voice subdued. "You're looking verrry beautiful this morrrning." [19:55:38] Missing-nya? Like... the SPOONS Five-chan said not to get for your soup?! [19:56:12] * Five hides a grin and says, "Yes. This soup is special. Try dipping some of your bread into it." [19:56:46] * She blinks. Then picks up a piece of bread and puts it in, curious. [19:57:45] * Five starts on a short lecture on the particularities of eating. "See, normally soup is served before the main course. However, this soup is not because it is part of the course. The bread and soup combination has been known to fill a hungry soul with content and is one of the most basic and yet unknown methods of fine dining..." [19:58:40] * Nisha nods, enthralled. "Fascinating." [19:59:41] * Five takes a breath and continues. "... You'll find that the bread absorbs the tastes of the soup, yet keeping solid enough to be chewed and swallowed. That's because I added a little something in the bread that allows it to retain its properties even after touching liquid for a short amount of time. With it, the bread doesn't just get wet, it absorbes the tastes of the fine chowder I grounded up and allow it to be filling as wel [20:01:40] "as well as delicious [20:01:46] * She nods. "That's pretty smart." [20:02:19] * Five blushes slightly and said, "Well, it's something I learned from other people, so..." [20:03:21] Waaa! Five-chan is talented-nya! (inner monologue) Che! Well played. [20:03:27] * Sweetbeam murmurs, "Learned from PEASANTS..." under her breath. [20:06:55] * Five finish serving the soup and starts to eat her own share as well. "Do you have anything planned for today?" She asks. [20:07:37] * She thinks... "Today... I think i figured out what I am missing." [20:09:13] * Five follows up, "What do you think you're missing?" [20:09:45] * She opens her palm and firmly places her fist into it with a look that could almost be called determination. "What I need is adventure. But I'm going to need your help." [20:11:04] * Sweetbeam nuzzles lightly at Nisha's side. "How can this one help you, my lady?" [20:11:20] * Five looks at the butler with a 'oh uh' look. [20:11:21] Waa! *makes a two-arms-pumping pose of GENKI* Ran-chan will help however she can-nya! [20:12:42] * She thinks... "A successful adventure is made of... a magic sword... magic armor... and a magic pendant." [20:14:00] But how can we help you get these things, Nisha-sama-nya? [20:14:04] * Five swallows a sigh and asks, "And where would such an adventure be?" [20:14:44] * Nisha smiles. "I don't know." ^_^ [20:15:38] * Five sighs in relief, but smiles. "Well, maybe we can find some clues later. But for now, perhaps we should focus on breakfast?" [20:15:53] Oh, yes. Breakfast. I completely forgot! ^_^ [20:16:46] * She resumes eating. [20:18:45] * Soon, breakfast finishes. Nisha stretches a bit. "Ah, that was good." ^^ [20:19:38] * Five cleans up the food and dishes, as she had mainly made the mess. [20:20:56] * Nisha grabs Shien Ran's hands. "You! All of you will help me make this dream come true, right?" *_* [20:22:34] Haaa~~i! Ran-chan will help Nisha-sama-nya! We *aaaaallllll* will! (Gives five a grinning glare out of Nisha's sight) NEEEEE?! [20:23:45] * Sweetbeam purrs, "This one will always help, my lady!" (S)he tail flicks, and eyeballs Nisha. @.@ [20:25:07] * Five is a bit busy cleaning up and dealing with preserving any food left over, but flicks an eye to watch the two. [20:29:47] * Nisha thinks... "Okay, let's prepare to go out adventuring. We'll meet at the front in two hours!" [20:30:29] Haaaai! [20:31:06] * Five thinks, 'Oh dear.' [20:31:11] * Sweetbeam dumps her bucket on her head like a helmet, stands and salutes Nisha brusquely. "Aye, aye, my lady!" [20:32:14] * Sweetbeam shivers suddenly. [20:32:21] * Sweetbeam wet. Drip-drip... ; . ; [20:32:40] * Five silently passes her a towel. [20:34:32] * Nisha goes off to prepare... however she decides to prepare. [20:34:52] * Sweetbeam silently dries off; helps to clean up the mess she made. Also silently. *cricket* [20:35:24] * Five finishes up her cleaning and asks, "So... how many of you actually wants to go on Nisha's little adventure?" [20:36:37] * Sweetbeam glares an eye up at Five suspiciously. "We're all supposed to help. The lady said so!" [20:36:47] * Sweetbeam -.@ [20:36:51] * Shien_Ran waves Nisha out of sight... then when she turns around the lollipop has miraculously reappeared. "Hell no. But if she's not happy, we may not get paid, and I stay trapped in this place even longer. So we're going to make her HAPPY, DAMMIT." [20:37:33] * Five argues to Sweetbeam, since it's pretty obvious where Shien stands. "But there might be dangers out there. Wouldn't it be safer if we... perhaps... made an adventure?" [20:38:50] * Sweetbeam straightens, dropping the feminine guise and folding his arms behind his head. He cracks his neck, and murrfs, "Tsk, you're just coming to that?" He bears a fang at Five in a wide smile, "Catch up, darrrling." [20:39:29] * Yon (dlarmour@wnpgmb1303w-ad03-41-47.dynamic.mts.net) has joined #MaidRPG [20:39:44] * Sweetbeam pinkies some water out of his ear. [20:40:31] * Five chuckles. "Well, I do care about Nisha. Probably more than the two of you do, so here's what I suggest: We go find something that can work for those things she want, then make some kind of map or riddle or something, and make sure she doesn't leave our sight for the entire day. How's that sound?" [20:41:55] Sounds like the freaking obvious thing to do, but whatever. [20:42:38] Ok, we'll each look for one of the items, and meet back in an hour. I'll look for the sword. You two? [20:42:46] Armor. [20:42:57] Fine. Pendant for me, then. [20:43:26] Alright. Let's go. Remember: back in an hour regardless. [20:43:39] * Sweetbeam is already gone! [20:44:07] Yeah, yeah. *waves dismissively over her shoulder as she strolls out* [20:44:50] * Five goes off as well, remembering some weapons that she had searched out due her inability to let go of her notorious past. [20:46:07] * Shien_Ran smirks to herself. "Heh. Suckers. Faking up a magic pendant is the easiest thing in the world. Enough glitter and ribbons and you can make anything look magic." [20:48:49] * Sweetbeam nibbles on a clawtip as he slinks through the hall of the mansion. Of course there are suits of armor, "But that's too easy, mrr... She's ditzy, but she'd probably notice- Maybe downstairs." [20:51:11] * Sweetbeam disappears into the basement, looking for old pieces. [20:51:38] * Five finds an old weapon that she had kept hidden as a relic of her past, one that she's sure does NOT have any negative side effects for being a 'magical weapon'. But she's not too sure exactly what it does other than glow and cut things better. [20:57:33] * Sweetbeam digs through the dusty basement. He wrinkles his nose, catching a cobweb on the tip and sneezing. After a few minutes of peeking around, he stumbles upon a beautifully ornate piece of armor, a breastplate just about the mistress' size. "Purrrfect. Maybe just a little gussying up to make it perfect..." [21:00:16] * Five returns to the kitchen in less than an hour as she knew exactly where she was going. She sets the sword on the side, hidden under a piece of cloth just in case someone comes in. [21:02:36] * Shien_Ran gets annoyed as she ransacks the place, searching fruitlessly for a cheap pendant. "Nothing?! Grr... fine. Time to improvise. Let's see... a couple of tassels from the drapes... some shiny glass from the chandelier..." [21:09:31] * Shien_Ran works furiously, a cloud of glitter rising around her, until she has the girliest, shiniest, most amazing faux-magic pendant ever. Which she then hides in the couch. [21:10:20] * Shien_Ran then spends the rest of the hour loafing. [21:10:51] * Sweetbeam has dumped his trinket in an empty box; he spends the rest of his time in the broom closet, polishing the hell out of that thing. [21:13:01] * The hour passes smoothly. Nisha arrives to the living room. :D [21:13:27] * Shien_Ran GENKI ON! [21:14:53] I forgot something, let's meet back in another hour! [21:14:55] * She walks off. [21:15:32] * Shien_Ran GENKI OFF. [21:17:09] * Five waits patiently for the other two to return. [21:17:31] * Five does find a parchment and writing tools. [21:20:03] * Shien_Ran saunters in. "Okay, I did my part." She throws herself in a chair and starts reading her magazine. [21:20:52] * Sweetbeam sways back in to the kitchen, box clutched in his arms. "Rrready here, too." He places the box on the ground and draps himself atop it. "What's the plan, fearrrrless leader?" [21:21:54] * Five rolled her eyes. "Right. I got something as well. Now all we have to wait for is... Oh, here we go. Anyways, I'm not too sure where we go from here, honestly. I'm thinking something about us finding a parchment with some clues to places around this area or inside the tower itself?" [21:22:38] "A treasure hunt." [21:22:48] Or there's always... *suddenly popping up behind Five, her fingers on the other maid's shoulders* ...THE DUNGEONS. [21:23:46] * Five nearly takes her weapon and attacks Shien with it, but manages to hold herself still for a moment. She takes a breath and then makes a pointed look at the parchment and writing material she prepared. "Exactly. I'm not much of a writer, so any one of you want to volunteer?" [21:24:42] * Five adds, "And if you don't want to lose an arm and leg, I suggest you don't try that again." [21:24:45] I'll handle it. Wouldn't want Your Prissiness to wear out her tiny little brain with the effort of creativity. [21:30:50] * Sweetbeam tsks, "Don't get in over your head, Prrrincess. Let me handle the note. Or map. Or whatever trouble it is we want to lead our lady into." He sidelongs at Five, "With all reasonable concerns for safety, of course." [21:31:36] * Five nods. "Alright, so ideas to where we hide the stuff. Any suggestions?" [21:33:58] "We should start at the top and work our way down. The attic." [21:34:41] * Sweetbeam flicks back a strand of hair, "God knows it's hard enough to get in there; I've almost broken my neck trying to climb up." [21:35:08] * Five nods, but declines to comment. [21:38:23] "How about one outside, near the lake?" [21:39:50] * Sweetbeam turns his lazy purple peepers on Shien, "And, of course, your precious dungeons." [21:41:53] * Five grins. "Yes. Since you suggested it, perhaps you should place it there." [21:44:05] [Session Hold(?)] End of #MaidRPG buffer Sun Mar 22 21:44:23 2009
