Start of #THSB buffer: Wed Feb 27 20:51:51 2008 [19:02:39] [ We find our heros suffering through final period as Mizushou-sensi personally mocks a girl for her choice of boyfriend, until there is an explosion somewhere nearby, which seems to be the normal way of ending the school days lately. ] [19:03:57] [ It's the same day as the first appearance of the mysterious mecha-pilot withthe big... scarf. The day has been fairly uneventful; there were only slightly more derisive 'pheh's and 'how little they know's than there normally are, what with the twins and all. ] [19:05:07] [ And now it's time to go home! There's the usual way with the stairs and stuff, and there's the new open space in the side of the building. The gap will probably be repaired tonight, so if you want to enjoy the novelty of jumping out of class on the second floor, now's the time to do it. ] [19:05:32] [ Daisuke Kunzen gets up and heads for the door, apparently a creature of habit. ] [19:05:37] [ Session Start! ] 06[19:06:08] * Nono stands and attempts to follow Daisuke 06[19:06:24] * Emi rises from her seat and heads for the door as well. Just because she CAN jump out the hole in the wall doesn't mean she's going to. 06[19:06:53] * Sumiko gets up and walks with Daisuke, staying at his side to talk. "Sensei was sure being mean back there. I wonder why she talked like that." [19:06:56] *Nana follows Daisuke, not willing to let him out of her sight while Sana goes for the wall! A true ninja uses not stairs! 06[19:07:07] * Nadeshiko walks alongside Kunzen gracefully. [19:08:15] "Alpha-kun! Is there anything I can do to help? I can carry your books? Yes?" 06[19:08:37] * Xiao leaps out the side of the building, running around to the front of the building before the others get there. Plans are already percolating in her head for how to eliminate the new competition. 01[19:09:19] Omega-san, that is not properly befitting of a lady. 01[19:09:36] If you wish to do favors for him, there are other ways. [19:09:44] [ "Eh? Oh, Sensei's probably just-- wait, what? Oh, no, Nono-san, thanks. I'm fine." ] 06[19:09:49] * Sumiko politely ignores Nono and Nadeshiko's conversation, instead mantaining conversation with Daisuke. [19:09:55] S "Those ways aren't befitting a lady either" 01[19:10:08] Of course they are. [19:10:15] [ Daisuke turns briefly and notices that there's a crowd of girls following him. He shakes his head in a 'nah, must be imagining things' sort of way. ] [19:10:24] She's probably what? I'm sorry, I'm new here, so I've never had her for a teacher before. [19:10:49] "I'm not a lady! I have to work as hard as a man to get where I am in my rank as protector of the...wait...you mean...oh" [19:11:11] [ "Anyway, Sensei's prolly just trying to warn her, or something. It's her way. I mean, look at the homework she gives us." ] 01[19:11:57] Lack of noble birth is not a permanent disability in the way of acting like a proper noble. [19:11:59] N: "I'd be glad to help you with your homework Daisuke-san" 06[19:12:07] * Nono takes a look at her homework just to see what challenges await [19:12:12] [ Tonight's English Homework: To help build 'foundational English', you get to translate the fight between Beowulf and Grendel. Apparently different people mean different things by 'foundational'. ] [19:12:27] [ Chances are, Mizushou is actually just being mean. ] [19:12:50] "Ohhhhhh! Translate a fight? This shouldn't be too hard" [19:12:56] ( oh, that's just mean homework. ) 06[19:13:12] * Emi walks along, just listening to everyone babble. 06[19:13:18] * Nadeshiko looks over the homework. [19:13:30] The homework? If you like, I can help you with it. I'm well versed in many languages. *smile* 01[19:13:34] I do not see why this is necessary... but I will do as requested. [19:14:19] [ Verileye, sharpe un stonge es tonyte's homwerk assyne-ment. ] [19:15:08] "Well language translating shouldn't be too hard with my digitronic uni-language translator device..." thinks "No that'd be cheating in the Earth sense. I guess I'd better go get a textbook and go analogue" [19:15:10] I'll get around to doing the homework eventually. It's not terribly interesting. 01[19:15:22] Hm. 01[19:15:33] Let us retire to my home. We will do our homework together. 01[19:15:43] Studying in groups is efficient. [19:15:54] "An excellent idea!" [19:15:58] [ But Daisuke, not realizing that this isn't technically even the language he's studying, just smiles and nods. "Ah, thanks, you guys. Maybe we can all meet at my house and study together!" ] 06[19:15:59] * Sumiko blinks. "I simply couldn't intrude like that." [19:16:09] [ Yes, nothing can possiblye go wrung with this plane. ...fuck. ] [19:16:38] "Oh, we wouldn't want you to do anything you wouldn't like. Why don't you go home." [19:16:40] [ "Oh, your house, Nadesico-san? Sure, that works. Would your parents mind?" ] [19:17:13] But I also would not wish you to do poorly on your homework... 01[19:17:16] They would be fine. And my nake is Nadeshiko. Not Nadesico. Watch your spelling, Kunzen-san. 06[19:17:23] * Sumiko looks torn. [19:17:29] (Yes, spelling in your speech.) [19:17:54] (Very good sense of hearing, yes?) [19:17:58] [ "Ah, sorry, Nadeshiko-san." ] [19:18:07] "Nadesico....like that show with the cook pilot?" [19:18:12] ( Quickly, someone needs to use a good old game of Jan Ken to settle this. ) [19:18:22] I don't know. I don't watch television. 01[19:18:57] Mm. I am not sure what you mean. 06[19:20:00] * Sumiko thinks for a moment. "I will come assist with your homework." [19:20:33] "I can help too!" 06[19:20:41] * Xiao shakes her head at the group, and pulls a really big gun out of her lab coat. She flips the switch to "Mario," takes aim, and fires it at Daisuke. A plunger with a rope attached to it streaks from the gun, impacting on Dai's (face? ass? Whichever is funnier given t he angle). 06[19:20:46] * Nadeshiko reaches for her cell phone. It's white with a red circle with sunbursts emanating from the circle. [19:21:01] *Sana quickly flings a throwing star through the rope [19:21:33] "Nooo!!" interposes herself between the plunger and Daisuke [19:22:28] Ah, the after school fight now. And it's five minutes earlier than usual. The snack shop I stop at is on the next block. [19:22:40] Oooh, snacks! [19:22:50] S:Who wants N: Ice cream cups! [19:23:31] [ Daisuke doesn't seem to notice that a plunger has been affixed to his back. ] 06[19:23:43] * Sumiko blinks and grabs a hold of Daisuke, pulling him back. 06[19:23:46] * Nono whams into the wall nearby [19:23:59] "Ow..." 06[19:24:32] * Sumiko talks softly into Daisuke's ear. "Daisuke, maybe we should get going, okay?" [19:24:37] I could go for some ice cream, and it would serve as a nice neutral ground for all of your studying. [19:24:43] (and with the rope cut, no way for Xiao to pull him out of the group.) 01[19:24:56] Very well. 06[19:25:02] * Nono hops back up and continues following [19:25:19] [ Dai blinks as he's pulled back. "Er, okay. You mean going faster?" ] 06[19:26:02] * Nono grabs the rope and pulls against it 06[19:26:12] * Sumiko nods and looks back at Xiao, letting go of Daisuke save keeping a grip on his arm. 06[19:26:19] * Nadeshiko steps along [19:26:49] Nadeshiko, I would hate to rush you, but we really must go faster. Which direction is your abode? [19:27:13] S: I thought we were going N: to the snack shop to study? 01[19:27:33] A fair distance, but I agree to compromise for the sake of efficiency. [19:27:41] [ Daisuke frowns. "I'm confused. Where *are* we going to study?" ] [19:28:07] Do you have a, um... Motor vehicle transport of some kind? [19:28:23] [ Dai-kun frowns. "Nah, I walk." ] [19:28:25] "I do!" 06[19:28:32] * Emi straightens up and uses her authoritive class president voice. "Yes, we're going to the snack shop." 01[19:29:21] I can call for a car. [19:29:28] [ There's the sound of a drum being struck twice, lightly. ] [19:29:41] "What was that?" [19:30:17] [ That was Emi being Authoritative. That's how they do it in Japan, y'know. ] [19:30:23] [ I've seen it on anime; it must be true! ] [19:30:33] [ HeyOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! *dook dook* ] [19:31:05] [19:31:07] Snack shop? Were we going to go study? [19:31:27] [ "I think?" ] [19:31:29] A little from column A; a little from column B. [19:31:48] Besides, everyone knows ice cream helps helps the knowledge go down. [19:31:48] S: Study and snack N: can't think on an empty stomach [19:32:00] "Then shall we go?" [19:32:15] I shall follow your authority then. Let us be off. ^^ 01[19:32:17] Certainly. 06[19:32:32] * Sumiko peeks back at the plunger and pulls it off of Daisuke's back, throwing it to the side. 06[19:32:35] * Xiao follows a few steps behind the group. She's not exactly paying attention to much, as she has her PDA out and is doing some really intense (and actually impossible given modern math and physics, but really plausible given mad science) calculations. She does, however, keep giving Nono and the twins dirty looks. [19:33:29] [ Daisuke blinks at the plunger. "Wow, where'd that come from?" [19:33:51] [ Regardless, we soon find Dai-Kun and The Girls at ZHA SUNAKKU, the premier snack and soda shop in this podunk ass-end of Japan. ] [19:34:11] S: Just some N: Nobody [19:34:46] [ They have candy, cake, ice cream, floats, splits, and all sorts of other delicious confectionary items that aren't easily pronounced by Japanese people. ] [19:35:29] [ Surely, an environment so laden with candy and children seeking candy can't POSSIBLY be a bad place to study! But they at least have a table large enough for everyone to sit at. If they don't mind being cozy. ] [19:35:33] [ Pause. ] 06[19:35:38] * Nono orders a Puritti Kua Maburu Sukuru [19:35:47] (Waaaaaait, pausu) 06[19:35:53] * Emi does the "The Game is Paused Dance." [19:36:09] [ Emi dances off the edge of the world. ] [19:36:18] Waaaaaaaaaah~~ 06[19:36:25] * Segev sweeps through in his necromancer's robes, leading an array of skeletal waitresses. They walk off the other side of the screen before anybody notices. [19:36:48] "TO THE KITCHEN! WAAAAAAAAUGH!" [19:47:12] [ Dai has a seat, and Sumiko legs go of his arm ever so briefly. Then time dilates as most of the girls move with blinding speed. Emi and Xiao in particular attain trully improbable velocities, and end up vying briefly - to outside viewers, at least - for a seat at Dai's left hand. ] [19:47:29] (lets) [19:48:07] [ After the dust settles - which doesn't take long because it was just a cartoony visual effect - Nono is at the right hand of Dai, Xiao at the left hand. ] [19:49:27] [ Emi is on the other side of Xiao, the twins are just past Nono, Nadeshiko is just past Emi, and Sumiko is on the far side of the table. Where, incidentally, she has direct line of sight to Our Hero. ] [19:49:50] [ Wait, when did he become a hero? Seriously, what's with these li-- oh, okay. Right. You sure? Okay, gotcha. ] [19:50:17] [ And then time resumes! There's a brief period while everyone sits silently while the product placement makes itself seen. ] [19:50:43] [ Brought to you by Godiva chocolates - made by a naked redhead, so you know it must be good. ] [19:51:00] ( Unpause. ) [19:51:22] "Hi there, Dai. Fancy meeting you here." [19:51:33] We... walked here. [19:51:38] "What just happened?" [19:51:48] [ "Oh, hello, Xiao. ...didn't we walk here together?" ] 06[19:52:02] * Emi brushes some dirt off her sleeve. 06[19:52:08] * The_Twins console themselves with ice cream [19:52:08] "Oh, Alpha-kun!" [19:52:18] "Well, sort of." 06[19:52:26] * Nadeshiko gracefully has a seat. 06[19:52:49] * Xiao orders a classic banana split. "Care to split it with me, Dai?" 06[19:52:59] * Sumiko simply looked on as people scrambled for seats, taking the seat at the furthest and not contested. 06[19:53:18] * Nono orders a Puritti Kua Maburu Sukuru(just cause anyone who knows the reference has to admit it sounds like a desert) 06[19:53:36] * Sumiko signals for a server and politely asks for some Ambrosia. Who knows, maybe they have it? [19:53:43] (dessert?) 06[19:54:34] * Nadeshiko requests a green tea chiffon cake. 06[19:54:53] * Emi orders an ice cream float. Not with two straws though, since she's not sitting next to Dai. [19:57:07] [ Dai nods at Xiao. "Sure, I'd love to split a split." His tone says "Cute girl plus free food. It is win!" ] [19:58:07] "There's enough screw for the both of us too! It's a big bowl!" said innocently but I know the players are snickering 06[19:58:48] * Xiao looks over at Nono, and mutters something disparaging in her native Cantonese. 06[19:59:02] * Sumiko takes out her homework already and starts to translate her assignment. [19:59:46] [ Dai nods and does likewise. Life is study! ] 06[20:00:15] * Emi mutters under her breath, "Aggresive much?" 06[20:00:23] * The_Twins are, to the best of anyone elses knowledge also studying, although Sana is strangely quiet. 06[20:00:52] * Sumiko looks up and smiles. "Was anyone unsure on how to do something?" [20:01:01] [ The split jumps to the left a few inches suddenly. Daisuke blinks. ] 06[20:01:07] * Xiao takes out her Palm while waiting for the split, and returns to her calculations. "Eureka!" she exclaims after a minute. 06[20:01:26] * Emi sips her float. Delicious. 06[20:02:10] * Nono blinks "Does anyone have a textbook I could borrow?" [20:02:22] You do not have yours? [2 0:02:38] If you like, we can share this textbook. ^_^ [20:03:26] "Thank you! Between the crash from the faulty proximity sensor comming out of hyperspace and the events of today, I didn't have time to get one" 06[20:03:32] * Emi whips out her textbook and puts it on the table. She's not sharing hers. [20:04:53] * Once the split arrives, and before Dai is able to start on it, Xiao adds a little something to his end of things. [20:05:26] "What was that?" points at Xiao "What did you put in there? Salt?" [20:05:28] Oh, no problem at all. [20:05:28] [ Dai takes a big bite of the split while trying to pronounce "Beowulf". He chews, swallows, and passes out into the bowl. ] [20:05:39] ... [20:05:44] "..." 01[20:05:46] Kunzen-san. 01[20:05:52] It's impolite to pass out in your food. [20:06:05] "Must be all the excitement of the past day. I'll make sure he gets home." [20:06:08] [ Dai would apologize, but he is unconscious. How rude! ] [20:06:12] "Alpha-kun! Someone call a doctor!" 01[20:06:12] Hmph. [20:06:24] [ Xiao grins right before she passes out onto the table. ] 06[20:06:29] * Nono jumps up from her seat "Medic!" [20:07:03] N: Oh, I'm sure they were just overtired from the stressfull day. 06[20:07:16] * Sumiko gets up and runs to the other side of the table, shaking the two in an attempt to wake them up. [20:07:18] "Epidemic!" presses a button on the side of her visor and the whole thing uncompacts into a full head space helmet 06[20:07:27] * Nadeshiko raises an eyebrow. [20:07:47] Wake up! Please? [20:07:50] He's choking! Does someone know how to fix that? [20:07:51] "I'll save you!" grabs Dai and runs off looking for a hospital [20:07:58] We know CPR! 01[20:08:14] Hm. 06[20:08:15] * The_Twins attempt to get Dai down on the ground 06[20:08:18] * Nadeshiko goes over to Daisuke. 06[20:08:28] * Sumiko slaps Nono just before she grabs Daisuke. "Do not do that, moving him will only make the condition worse." [20:08:30] [ There she goes, out the door! And she's got Dai-kun with her. ] [20:08:41] [ That crazy Nono. ...she's prolly gonna get him hurt without knowing it. ] [20:09:34] [ And then Xiao wakes up. ] 06[20:10:04] * Xiao lifts her head up. "What the ... ah hell! Where's Dai?" 06[20:10:14] * Sumiko sprouts her wings and halo and runs out the door, chasing after Nono. [20:10:27] [ You girls aren't gonna let her run off with him, are you? He's important to the time stream, to SCIENCE!, and he may also be cute! Or not. ] 06[20:11:54] * Nadeshiko gets her cake, pays for her food, and chases elegantly after Daisuke. There may or may not be cherry blossoms involved. 06[20:12:10] * Emi opens her cell phone and calls home. "Yes, it looks like I'm going to be late getting home. ..... Yes, extracurricular activities. ..... See you soon." [20:12:11] "That ..." A whole string of Chinese explitives escapes her mouth. Good thing this show's in Japanese, cause none of it is fit for young ears. "I'm gonna get Dai back!" 06[20:12:18] * Sumiko flies after Nono, catching up to her stupidly fast. 06[20:12:32] * Xiao races out the door, leaving a few hundred yen on the counter for the split. 06[20:12:34] * Nono races around "Hospital! Hospital! Someone call 911! No wait this is Japan! 110! 110! Someone call 110!" 06[20:13:12] * Emi closes the phone and puts it in her bag and speaks in English, "Now sa chasu is afootu." 06[20:13:20] * Emi starts off after Nono and Dai. [20:14:09] [ Nono notices that she's being pursued by twin ninjas, a mad scientist, a swordswoman, a magical girl, and an angel. ] 06[20:14:20] * Xiao pulls out her Really Big Gun of 1001 Settings. 06[20:14:32] * Sumiko orders in a commanding voice from above Nono, her form blocking out the sun and causing her shadow to fall over Nono. "Stop." [20:14:41] [ Oh good God, look at the knobs on that thing. ] [20:14:57] "Gekizankaiser! Come out!" 06[20:15:21] * Nono leaps into the air as a ginormous robot drops from the sky [20:15:46] [ A bigassed robot unzips the pavement and shoots out of it, powerposing against the mid-afternoon sun before scooping Nono and Dai up. ] [20:15:54] [ Aww. ] [20:16:02] [ Well, the robot does both. It's just that awesome. ] 01[20:16:12] Omega-san, weren't you taking him to the hospital? [20:16:27] "We can get to the hospital faster this way!" 01[20:16:36] Do you know where the hospital is? [20:16:51] "Gekizankaiser! Locate the nearest medical facility!" 06[20:17:08] * Emi looks up at the giant robot and sighs. 06[20:17:17] * Sumiko sweatdrops. [20:17:17] [ The robot POINTS! in the direction of the nearest hospital. ] 01[20:17:35] You were chasing for a hospital without knowing wher one was first? [20:17:40] "Good! Now get us there really fast!" [20:17:50] [ The robot takes off running! ] [20:18:04] (can we pause until we get combat order situated?) 06[20:18:29] * Emi slows down and walks. "No way I'm keeping up with that." [20:19:40] [ The robot stops running and pauses to stretch. Apparently it has a sprained ankle from the crash-landing earlier. ] 06[20:19:47] * Xiao grins. "I can." From out from under the lab coat - where'd the gun go, btw? - comes something that shouldn't look like it would fit. It's a streamlined hover-platform with railings large enough for the entire group, with a steering position in the rear. 06[20:19:58] * Nono sweatdrops [20:20:16] [ Pause. ] 03[20:20:32] * Robin changes topic to 'Sumiko (5) ' 06[20:20:45] * The_Twins leap from treetop to treetop after the ro...but freeze in mid leap. Yes, ninjas can do that. Screw gravity. It doesn't work in THE FUTURE anyway. 03[20:20:56] * Robin changes topic to 'Sumiko (5) Twins (4) Emi (3) ' 03[20:21:07] * Robin changes topic to 'Sumiko (5) Twins (4) Emi (3) Xiao (2)' 06[20:21:39] * Segev directs some skeletons in hardhats as they reposition the twins for a better angle, and do some quick repairs on the robot's ankle. He and his undead minions are off camera again before the scene starts up again. 03[20:21:58] * Robin changes topic to 'Sumiko (5) Twins (4) Emi (3) Nadeshiko(2) Nono(2) Xiao (2)' 03[20:22:12] * Robin changes topic to 'Sumiko (5) Twins (4) Emi (3) Nadeshiko(2) Nono(2) Xiao (2) Daisuke (Fail)' [20:28:38] [ Sumiko, go! ] 06[20:30:08] * Sumiko vanishes in a flash of bright sunlight, appearing next to the robot, phasing through the cockpit. [20:30:36] (Might I note that we're in its hands, not its cockpit) [20:30:44] (just fyi ^^;) [20:30:46] (Oh. [20:30:46] ("CHEATER!") [20:30:47] ) [20:30:54] (In that case...) [20:30:57] (Yes, but the controls are, in theory, in the cockpit. *snicker snicker*) 06[20:30:59] * Sumiko retcons! [20:31:06] ( Oh? I thought I put you in the cockpit? ) [20:31:25] ( I didn't! ) [20:31:34] ( ...Well, now you're in the cockpit! Okay! ) [20:32:02] ( Sumiko does not in fact retcon. ) [20:32:09] (Nope!) 06[20:32:51] * Sumiko enters the cockpit. "Please stop this, I am only here to help." Her voice is 100% sincere. Hell, it's probably 200% sincere. [20:33:10] (The sincerity ratio is off the chart!) [20:34:39] "Spiral Power of the burning sun! Yes, I except your help! Show me the way to salvation and the hospital!" 01[20:34:58] ( What does the scouter say about her sincerity level? ) [20:35:06] (It's about 8800) [20:35:11] (what does the scouter say?) [20:35:27] No need, simply wait and all will be made clear. I assure you, Daisuke will recieve proper medical attention. 06[20:36:04] * Sumiko walks forward and takes Daisuke by her shoulders. She utters an ancient word and both she and Daisuk e vanish. [20:36:20] [ Clearly, this glow is spiral power! ] [20:36:26] [ Now it's the Twin's turn! ] 06[20:41:20] * The_Twins finish their jump, Sana landing in the outstretched palm of the robot, who fiddles with her belt before blinking out in an imploding sphere, crumpling half of the robots arm as she does so. Nana lands on a telephone wire, quickly making hand motions as she calls out "Waaldo stepu jutsu!" [20:42:31] [ zomgninja! ] [20:43:10] [ Emi, go! ] 06[20:45:04] * Emi tries to figure out how to stop the robot. She then decides to dash out in front of the robot and yells loudly at Nono, "Under Space Directive 1698C, I challenge you to a duel over your cargo!" She then brandishes her bokken threateningly. 06[20:45:31] * Emi doesn't know what Space Directive 1698C is, even if it exists. She's hoping to cause Nono to stall. 06[20:46:38] * Nono does indeed stop and blink at this and pauses for a bit just to get out the heug manual and check it for just what that means [20:48:55] [ Oddly, the robot also pulls out an enormous manual and pages through it. If the twins bother to read it, it makes their head spin. ] [20:49:16] [ Nadeshiko, go! ] 01[20:51:42] Omega-san, isn't this approach somewhat chaotic and undignified? The chaos cannot be good for him. He needs to be rushed to the hospital by someone who knows the area well. [20:54:22] "Just doing my job, citizen!" [20:55:26] [ Clearly what we have here is a failure to communicate. ] [20:55:30] [ Nono, your turn! ] 06[20:55:32] * Nadeshiko BALKS. 06[20:57:20] * Nono finds the directive and reads aloud "In the event that your frypan is attacked by a rabid glophzorb, you should keep the sausages in the package and pour coffee on it" shrugs "You heard it Geki-kun!" [20:58:30] What's a globzord? [20:59:21] [ The giant robot pulls out a pitcher of cold coffee and pours it on Xiao, Nadeshiko, and Emi. ] [20:59:51] "If you're looking for Dai-kun, the spiral lady with the wings took him!" [21:00:23] Did you... yes. I can't believe you! You assaulted me with decaffinated coffee! [21:00:40] "DECAF? YEACH!!" [21:00:42] "You're not getting my sausages!!" [21:01:49] [ This insult cannot stand! ] [21:02:04] [ Xiao, you gonna take that girl's shi-- er, coffee? ] [21:02:52] "That's alls I can stands, and I can't stands no more. You're going down, you alien biatch." 06[21:04:42] * Xiao pulls out the Really Big Gun, and flips the switch to "Eviscerate." "Eat this." She pulls the trigger, and not one but four energy beams shoot from it, severing the arms and legs of the robot. [21:06:40] [ The gun goes 'vooooch', like something out of Super Mario World. But the effects cannot be denied; a wave of force knocks Gekizankaiser over the row of shops and into the nearby residential area. ] [21:06:46] [ ...say, isn't Dai's home right over there? ] [21:07:04] "Oh nooooooooooooooooooo!" [21:09:13] [ Also, cruch. ] [21:09:23] (@_@) [21:09:29] [ Meanwhile, nearby, Sumiko, Dai-kun and the Twins are sitting on the sidewalk studying. ] [21:11:05] [ Dai looks up. "What was that noise?" ] 06[21:11:46] * Xiao puts the gun away, and drives the hover-platform over to where the others are studying. "Give you a lift home, Dai?" 06[21:11:49] * Nono falls atop Dai's wrecked house as her wrecked robot drops back into subspace 06[21:12:06] * Nadeshiko scowls and steps up to Nono. [21:12:09] "He still needs to finish his studying" 06[21:12:13] * Nono looks around "This....isn't good" 01[21:12:23] What did I tell you? [21:12:23] "He can't study at home?"" [21:12:27] -" 01[21:12:28] Tell me. What. Did I tell you? [21:12:37] "What did you tell me?" [21:12:43] "I forgot" 01[21:12:56] I told you that something like this would happen, is what I told you. 06[21:13:09] * Sumiko rubs Dai's head as she sets him down in the snack shop, having revived him of his sleepyness. "I hope you're feeling better?" 01[21:13:16] Expect a bill for cleaning these clothes later, by the way. [21:13:22] "Hurry! We gotta fix it before Alpha gets back!" 06[21:13:25] * Nadeshiko points at a coffee stain. [21:13:50] (err, retcon my setting down.) 06[21:13:51] * Nono starts desperately trying to fix the house but with little success 06[21:14:13] * Nadeshiko looks it over... [21:14:20] I think I should go home and change. I don't want to smell like... hazelnuts all day. [21:14:49] [ Dai looks around a bit. "Well, my home is right over there. Where the big noise came from." [21:14:50] ] 06[21:14:54] * Sumiko smiles at Daisuke. "And these words right here mean 'Ripped his arm off.'" 06[21:15:15] * Nono goes through her gauntlet devices and tries to see if she can get it to cough up a hammer and some nails but only manages to get it to produce a small hammer which bonks her on the head [21:15:22] [ Dai blinks. "Ohhh. Okay, that makes a lot more sense than 'offered him cheese'." ] [21:15:40] [ "But, let's go see what the noise was real quick, okay? I wanna make sure everyone's alright." ] [21:15:47] "Hop on!" 06[21:15:50] * Sumiko giggles. God damn she's too innocent. "Okay, let's go!" 01[21:16:06] Hmm.. 06[21:16:22] * Sumiko gets up and helps Daisuke to his feet. 06[21:16:34] * Nadeshiko reaches for her backpack and starts erecting Shinto charms and wards around the place where the house used to be. [21:16:43] Why don't we all walk together. [21:16:57] [ Five seconds later and you're all in front of the Kunzen residence. There's a big robot lying on top of the remains of the place. Daisuke's mom is standing there, and says, for the record, "Ara ara." ] [21:16:57] That sounds like a wonderful idea. ^_^ 06[21:16:58] * Nono tears up from the smack on the head or maybe something else "Don't cry..." sniffle 06[21:18:38] * Xiao is standing there on the hover-platform's railing. "Wow. Say, Dai ... and Dai's mom, of course ... if you need a place to stay while this place is repaired, my home has room." [21:18:58] Sorry, Dai, but look on the bright side. I don't think things could get much worse. 03[21:19:00] * Mandoric (UserID@c-71-192-96-52.hsd1.vt.comcast.net) has joined #thsb [21:19:19] N: But think of the impropriety! S: That would never do. 06[21:19:21] * Nono runs up to Daisuke when he shows up "I'm so sorry!" is in tears "My thoughtlessness and wrecklessness caused me to wreck your home! I'm a bad space cop!" bawls [21:19:49] [ Right as Emi says that, a gas main under the house ruptures and catches fire. ] [21:20:08] [ Dai rubs his head. "Man, this is really gonna suck in a few days. I think it's supposed to rain Friday." ] [21:20:12] Sorry, I guess it could, and did, get worse. 06[21:20:21] * Sumiko bows to Daisuke. "I have a spare room at the shrine, if you require a place to stay while your house i-... While you seek new property." [21:20:31] *Nana stealthy trips Nono before she can get to Daisuke 06[21:20:53] * Nono falls on her face and creates a puddle of tears under her head [21:20:54] "Hey, Sumiko, I already offered!" 01[21:21:19] Ahem.... [21:21:31] "He just says the word, and he can stay at my place! I've got room!" 06[21:21:34] * Nadeshiko approaches Daisuke's mom. 06[21:21:46] * Nono sits up in that knees together stance and starts fountaining 01[21:22:01] Excuse me... [21:22:04] I wish no offense, Xiao, but you have both drugged and attacked those around Daisuke, AND Daisuke himself. It would be dangerous to leave him alone with you. 01[21:22:08] I am Yamato no Nadeshiko. 06[21:22:40] * Nadeshiko bows to Daisuke's mom. A gust of wind brings across cherry blossoms 06[21:22:41] * Sumiko turns to Nadeshiko and smiles. "Yes?" [2 1:22:46] [ Dai's mom smiles politely and cheerfully. "Ah, what a bold statement. But I am pleased to meet you. Did you win a pageant?" ] [21:22:48] "Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!" [21:23:14] We did! [21:23:47] N: Well actually Sana won N: But Nana collected the crown for me. [21:23:49] "I didn't mean any harm... I've got it! We can all move in one place together! That way, we can keep an eye on each other, and try and win over Dai in our own way!" 01[21:23:56] I am afraid not, but thank you for the compliment. 01[21:24:16] My House may be able to help repair your home. 01[21:24:23] In the mean time, you and your family are free to stay with us. 06[21:25:06] * Nono sniffle sniffle sniffle SNORT sniffle sniffle [21:26:13] [ Daimom smiles. "Ah, how nice. But, I am sorry, we have a bit of a problem, now. We need to find someplace to live. I'm not sure our current residence is habitable anymore." And then there's an explosion that sends Gekizankaiser soaring into the air before landing on the road nearby. Fortunately, nobody is hurt. ] [21:26:15] "I need a hanky" one pops out of her wrist gauntlet and she blows her nose 06[21:26:17] * Emi walks over and bonks Nono on the back of the head. "Hey, if you've got all this science fiction stuff, can't you rebuild the house to be better, faster, stronger, harder? [21:26:48] [ Longer? Uncut? ] 01[21:26:50] Your famliy may live with us for the time being. [21:26:54] Technologick? [21:26:58] "That would be the Galactic Space Contractor Bureau" [21:28:01] S: We could always go back in time to before the house was destroyed and stop ourselves. N: Or to another universe where it wasn't destroyed in the first place. [21:28:04] [ Daimom smiles. "Ah, thank you, young lady. But are you sure it won't be a problem, with us sleeping on your sofas?" ] 01[21:28:14] Sofas? 01[21:28:24] We have plenty of room. All are welcome. [21:28:46] Na) Sofas? You mean floors. [21:29:05] "Did I hear that right, Nadeshiko? *All* are welcome?" [21:29:12] [ Pause. ] [21:29:23] [ Nadeshiko has spoken the magic worlds, albeit unknowingly. ] 06[21:29:40] * Emi gets a cleric ready with Turn Undead for when Segev comes through. Because the game is paused, so he will show. 06[21:29:59] * Sumiko gets ready to smite herself some evil, as well. 06[21:30:11] * The_Twins just opens a gate to the positive energy dimensio... plane. 06[21:30:26] * Segev is busy casting Animate Object on the remains of the giant robot. Its parts start animating and dragging itself off-screen. [21:31:06] [ We move to the next day, when we find Nadeshiko, Dai, his mom Yuki, his sister Ayame, the Twins, Xiao, and Nono all gathered around the same table for breakfast. ] [21:31:27] [ Incidentally, Sumiko and Emi both live in an adjacent complex. ] [21:31:40] [ Depause, cue brief grumbling before episode ends! ] 06[21:32:06] * Xiao is fiddling with the coffee maker. "We'll need a lot more coffee." 06[21:32:29] * Nono is actually out of her space cop outfit and in a school uniform 01[21:32:40] Is that what you drink in your home country? 06[21:32:53] * Nadeshiko eats rice and miso soup for breakfast. It's only proper. [21:33:02] "Back in my home city of Shanghai, yes." [21:33:11] "In the future coffee IVs are mandatory for all corporeals under the age of 30" 06[21:33:11] * Emi can be heard doing some construction outside the house. She's currently building a bridge between her room and Nadeshiko's house. It's of suspect quality, though. [21:33:30] "Well I usually enjoy sausage with [unitelligble alien words]" [21:34:00] "They are? Good to know that particular invention of mine will get some use. It still has some bugs in it right now." [21:34:36] "Yeah, without the atmosphere is instantly fatal to those who don't build the caffiene tolerance" 06[21:35:13] * Emi hammers loudly. Hammer hammer hammer. [21:35:14] "Now I know you're lying." [21:35:29] What? [21:35:39] Why would I lie? [21:35:42] [ Ayame chimes in with "You shouldn't lie, oneechan!" ] 06[21:35:46] * Nadeshiko drinks her soup. [21:36:20] "Can someone please pass the salt. No wait, I'll get it" her ahoge infurls and picks up the salt shaker off the table and sprinkles some on her food before putting it back 06[21:36:37] * Sumiko steps into the room from the kitchen, a frying pan in hand and an apron covering her clothing. She also has her hair tied back. When she heard what happened, she agreed to help out around the house until Daisuke's family could be re-located. "Excuse me, would anyone like seconds?" [21:36:56] "Yes, please!" [21:37:15] "There. Now the coffee maker can tap into the elemental plane of non-decaf coffee. And yes, I'd like seconds. Thanks." 06[21:37:41] * Emi pops her head into the room. "You've got one hour, 47 minutes, aaaaand... 32 seconds untill classes start. Be sure you're on time. I now know where you live." [21:37:45] "I guess some of us" "Don't mind letting ourselves go" [21:38:31] (At Xiao) [21:38:38] "Uh, on second thought, I'll just finish what's on my plate. Thanks anyways" 01[21:38:47] Mm. 06[21:38:49] * Sumiko distributes food to those who asked for seconds. She smiles to Emi. "Of course, I wouldn't let them be late for school." [21:38:53] [ And so the day started. Full house indeed. ] 06[21:38:57] * Xiao takes a seat back at the table. "Say, anyone want a lift? I turbo-charged the hover-platform." [21:38:58] [ Session End! ] [21:39:09] [ Cue end music. ] [21:39:29] [Cue music about love and the stars and nothing to do with the acctual show.] [21:39:38] [But it sounds snazzy and upbeat.] 06[21:39:46] * Emi sings along with the end music poorly in kareoke-style poorly. 01[21:39:49] [Cue next episode preview] [21:39:56] Today's experiment....... FAILED! 06[21:39:57] * The_Twins do the voiceover! [21:40:21] YAY! XD 03[21:40:45] * The_Twins is now known as Lafing_Cat [21:40:51] Well, you say that it failed, but a winner is us! [21:40:52] turbo-charged the hover platform... 03[21:40:56] * Nono is now known as Alt-Eisen 03[21:40:57] * Xiao is now known as Phantasm 06[21:40:57] * Segev directs the wights in setting up the stage. The preview looks a bit funny with half the stage still for the last episode and the wights working on fixing it, but let's not pay attention to that. 06[21:41:21] * Sumiko motions and a burst of sunlight shines into the room. None of this crappy 'Daylight spell' stuff, either. [21:41:36] *grumblegrumbleUndeadgrumblegrumble* [21:41:40] (are the wights wearing ninja outfits?) 03[21:41:42] * Sumiko is now known as Syzix [21:41:50] Hey now Phant. [21:41:51] Lousy undead stage ninjas. [21:41:54] That just wouldn't be wight. [21:42:12] "I thought you said we didn't want to turn right?" "No, I said we dinna want to turn wights!" 06[21:43:38] * Segev doesn't like his wights being turned, either. 06[21:43:56] * Lafing_Cat prefers his wights destroyed [21:44:01] Good thing I have the Sun Domain. [21:44:08] And yes, they're in ninja outfits. They look suspiciously like the shadow khan from Jackie Chan adventures, actually. The budget was short, and we had to buy used. [21:44:09] I prefer them Destoryed. [21:44:29] destroyed *is* destoryed [21:44:42] Destroyah 06[21:45:14] * Alt-Eisen walks by each wight and spins them around [21:45:18] I used to typo "destroy" as "destory" all the time.... it was an interesting time. [21:45:22] I'm turning them, yes? 03[21:46:46] * Nadeshiko is now known as Demota [20:50:57] * Now talking in #THSB End of #THSB buffer Wed Feb 27 20:51:51 2008
