[Day: Saturday, March 15th. Time: 8:00 p.m.] [Weather: Dark, and cold.] [You went to Ayako's mansion, and after having been ambushed by Arisu, who accompanied you, gained entrence. Satoshi got made fun of. Haruko got wine (though she failed to get a boyfriend). Taki got mad. Katie got quiet. Kyon got to talk to Ayako. Kaede got shoved aside by Remi, who got accusative towards the hostess. The butler got paid, but that was off camera. And Arisu got missing. Yep! She's not there now!] [Anyhow, Remi is fuming and facing off with Ayako.] [Ready Go!] * Haruko had been sipping her wine as Remi charged in and spilled some of it on her dress in surprise. * Kaede watches Remi and Ayako, looking from one to another. He definitely has a "I knew this was coming" expression to his face. Remi glares at Ayako. Grrr. After a long few minutes of staring at each other, Ayako casually looks away, towards the other guests. "I can't imagine what you're talking about." * Satoshi looks from Remi to Ayako, then sighs. He really doesn't want to be here. Did we mention that? * Taki silently waits for things to explode. * Haruko mutters quietly to herself as she tries to wipe up the stain. "Damn, I knew we should have left someone outside. Hope I can get this clean..." * Katie blinks. And doesn't say anything just yet. [The other guests, too, are drinking their wine. They occasionally glance at Remi, but since they can't make fun of her as much as Satoshi, they mostly ignore her.] [Or punch. Some have punch.] (She's got a silly hat?) * Kyon pulls back against the wall next to the door, and watches coolly. ( Ayako has to wear that hat too, so making fun of it would be bad :P ) (Point ^_~) * Kaede whispers to the nearest guest, just in case they'll actually by a freak chain of events answer him, "This happen often?" * Haruko finishes trying to clean up her dress and just watches Atako for the moment. Remi gestures angrily at Ayako. "Liar! I know you've been up to something! You've been hanging around her more and more often and now she's suddenly gone missing! Where did you put her?" The guest responds to Kaede: "Beats me. It's my first time here." * Katie frowns a little. * Satoshi eyes the table with the wine. He's never drunk alcohol before. Now might be an excellent time to start. (Drunken Satoshi would be scary...) * Haruko then, a bit more carefully, starts drinking again as she quietly watches the confrontation. * Kaede nods and since he has the advantage, keeps whispering, "Sure is interesting. What were you invited for?" He shrugs at Kaede. "Who cares? Let's get drunk!" He drinks some wine right down. * Taki continues to watch the trainwreck. * Kyon jams his hands in his pockets and waits to see if Remi settles down. * Kaede shakes his head. "I'd prefer not to." He's still keeping one eye on Remi. Ayako turns her attention back to Remi. "Look, whoever you are, I hardly even know Eiko. She's just some attention-starved socially inept girl who wanted to come to my parties." Remi narrows her eyes, clenching her fists tightly. "What did you call her?" ( Gimme perception rolls, +1 ) * Kaede frowns. This won't go well. 2d6+1 2d6-1 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6+1) and gets 6. * Dicesuke throws the bones for Satoshi (2d6-1) and gets 10. 2d6-3 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Katie (2d6-3) and gets 4. 2d6+1 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Kaede (2d6+1) and gets 5. 2d6+1 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Taki (2d6+1) and gets 10. 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Kyon (2d6) and gets 5. [Whoever made it notices very, very thin misty spirals rising from Remi's fists.] * Satoshi begins edging towards where the wine is. It's starting to look like a really good option. * Haruko suddenly moves forward and does her best to 'trip' on to Remi. * Kyon shakes his head irritatedly and mutters something under his breath in Chinese. ( Gimme a performing arts (acting) roll Haruko! ) * Taki follows closely to Satoshi. (Aod help?) 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6) and gets 3. ( Only if you want to call attention to yourself :P ) * Kaede whispers to his new friend, a little worried. "Have you noticed anything..weird going on around here lately?" He mutters under his breath. "Oh hell..." * Katie cocks her head. [Haruko trips, and she and Remi fall down. Haruko pins Remi beneath her. She begins to move to shove her off. "Get off of me!"] * Satoshi picks up a glass of wine and takes a small sip. Ack! Haruko! ( Haruko, gimme a body roll! ) (boost) * Taki goes to offer Haruko a hand up. 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6) and gets 6. * Kaede goes over to help, listening for a response first for his question. "Geez." * Katie comments, quietly, "That was smooth." She looks over at Ayako. * Kyon looks on bemusedly. "Jin not enough for you?" [Not good enough for Haruko! Remi shoves her off and clambers to her feet!] * Kaede backs away from flying Harukos, hissing through his teeth. * Haruko stands up next to Remi and moves forward to apologize. * Taki blinks and retracts her hand. Sorry, such a clutz.. ::quiet hiss:: she's a bitch but she's not behind this. Let's get out of here. * Satoshi watches the confrontation and drinks more. This is really *not* a good situation, and he can't see any way of making it better. Ayako apparently finds this amusing; she's grinning. * Haruko tries to grab Remi's arm. "Com'on, lemme clean that up. (she had been carrying a drink." ( Gimme a body roll, Haruko! ) 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6) and gets 11. * Kaede looks over at Ayako cooly and adjusts his glasses. "You seem a little too amused by this." Remi shoves Haruko so hard she staggers back a few steps and falls to the ground. "Get OFF me!" Ayako chuckles. "I like to watch monkeys dance." Woah, please calm down Remi. Haruko's just trying to help. Then why don't you buy a pet? * Taki goes to offer her hand to Haruko again. * Katie snorts. * Satoshi finishes the wine and puts the glass down. "Why should I spend money, when so many willingly come to my door?" * Haruko shakes herself off, dazed for a moment and this time takes Taki's help up." Insulting all your guests now? "You're not my guests." * Haruko also blushes a bit. Although her looking flushed seems more than embarrassment. * Taki helps Haruko up and steadies her a bit. Well, it sounds like you obviously spent money on THEM. Seems spare change in comparison. Ayako looks at Kaede. "How about you leave before I call the police?" * Haruko looks hopeful for a moment and watches for Remi's response. [Remi's response is to stare at Ayako with clenched fists and teeth.] * Taki would facepalm, but she's got her hands full. That's a typical response of someone who can't actually come up with a valid answer. * Satoshi eyes the wine again, then shakes his head and walks back over to the others. * Haruko whispers to Taki. "If I can kill the lights, can you grab Remi and port out of here?" But fine, I'll leave. * Taki whispers back, "I don't see why not, she won't be happy with any of us though." Give my regards to this girl's friend then. I'm sure she needs it more than your attention. * Ayako just gazes at Kaede, before shaking her head. "You're a sad little ant." * Kaede walks out the hallway, eyeing Ayako as he goes past. * Haruko bites her lip. "That's a risk I'm willing to take." She then quickly scans the room to see if it looks like one light switch will darken it. (Phear the plebes! We out number you!) ( I'd be more likely to just skip the words and squish him ded :P ) * Kyon pushes off the wall and nods formally at Ayako as he goes out. (Not the kill with giant magnifying glass type?) * Katie walks over to place her hand lightly on Remi's shoulder. "Come on." Ayako: "Oh and by the way? Eiko's never going to get invited to one of my parties, but she does make a nice servant." (Light report?) ... ( There's one by the door ) (Does it look like one switch would darken the room?) * Kaede twitches at that and stops for a second. Remi shrugs off Katie's hand and stomps towards Ayako. ( Gimme an electronics check ) * Taki stares at Ayako...and debates letting Remi have her. ( Consumer Electronics ) * Katie lets her go. "Would be better without witnesses, though," she mutters. 2d6-4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6-4) and gets 5. * Taki would nod if she could hear. [Anyway, Haruko has no friggin clue whether the light switch will shut off all the lights in the room or not.] * Haruko staggers out of the room and 'accidently' knocks into it anyways. Nothing to lose at this point. ( Want an acting roll?) ( Yep ) 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6) and gets 6. (if body, fail, if mind make, if soul, by 3) [Haruko is convincing enough, and the lights go out. Which is good, 'cause just as they do, they're a sound like a knife through the air, and a crack on the far wall, followed by the expected "WTH?" expressions from the guests.] * Katie is *so* out of there. * Taki curses and runs to the last place she saw Remi. * Kaede curses slightly and makes a dash for it. ( Kaede, dashing where? ) ( And Taki, gimme a perception roll! ) * Satoshi runs for it. "Although whatever these people get, they probably deserve..." he mutters as he heads for the door. (Bathroom. When ya gotta go, ya gotta go) (Out of there.) (Boosting) 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Taki (2d6) and gets 12, a CRITICAL FAILURE!!! "My momma always said, you gotta take the good with the bad. Have a little bad." (DR?) (...I hate you milkman Dicy) (Yes.) (And Taki transports out with Ayako. :P) 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Taki (2d6) and gets 8. ( Kidnappers! Help! Police!) (Nah, it's perception. So she runs into Ayako instead. Literally.) (Though with Kate's statement, just change Kidnappers to Assault ^_^) [Taki bumps into someone!] * Taki hopes she got the right one, "Sorry, is that you Remi?" * Kyon strides firmly on his way out, keeping alert. He pulls one hand from his pocket, and flexes it a couple times. * Haruko waits by the lights for a moment and listens. Some guy hiccups and replies. "Mmmmmaybe. Y'got more wine?" Nope, sorry, it's all still on the table. * Katie looks panicked. "What the hell just happened?" * Taki moves twords where Ayako was and hopes to find Remi there. (What are you talking about? I left. Heh.) [Meanwhile there's more of those sounds. Doesn't seem like anyone hit anything, but there's a lot of screeching and "Turn the #$$# lights on!"ing anyhow.] ( Gimme another roll, Taki! ) 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Taki (2d6) and gets 8. [Meanwhile, the rest of you are out of there. 'Cept Satoshi; I dunno what he's doing.] [Taki bumps into someone!] (Haruko's still by the lights) * Taki apologises to the person she bumped into and hopes it's an Angry Remi and not another drunken guest. Not drunk, but not Remi, either: "Hey, there's something cold here... Don't tell me you guys spilled the punch?" Things went very wrong, very quickly? * Haruko bites her lip for a moment and flicks the lights back on. Waits just a second for Taki to find Remi and then screams in horror trying to get as much attention as humanly possible. * Kaede growls a little. "Yes. Why doesn't someone warn me that they're going to try a stupid stunt like that?" [Ayako isn't there! Remi is; when the lights come back on, she looks around frantically.] "Haven't been near it all ni..." Trails off as the lights come on and looks franticaly for Remi. (Haruko got people's attention? I need a roll?) Because there isn't a special sign language yet. ( Yah ) 2d6-1 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6-1) and gets 6. There's Satoshi. (soul make by three) Yes. Hi? [Haruko gets people's attention, all right. "She did it!"] * Katie shrugs. "And you think Haruko would- hm, she's on her way. ( Gimme ranged defense at +1, Haruko! ) That's a good point. * Taki makes her way over to Remi, "C'mon we need to get out of here." And, no, I don't think Haruko would think to warn me telepathically. We need to get out of here before she calls the police. 2d6-2 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6-2) and gets 3. I wouldn't have thought to ask her, either. Maybe in the future I should. [Haruko ducks just in time as a plastic cuppa punch slams into the wall where her head was a second ago.] I hate to say it, but it's the best method of communication we have. Well, short of whispering so we know Katie can hear us. * Haruko babbles loudly while dodging. "I'm so sorry, I though someone grabbed me. Err! DId you mean to throw that? I think I should go." She keeps talking as long as Remi's still in the room. * Katie nods. Remi's still there, all right. "No! Where did she go?" * Satoshi thinks at Haruko. ~Haruko, let's go!~ Away! Which is where we need to go! * Satoshi thinks at her again. ~And next time you're going to try something like that, warn us!~ ~Remi's not out~ ~I didn't deserve that punch~ ~Ooh like I had time~ ~C'mon Taki!~ 2d6-12 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Katie (2d6-12) and gets 0, a CRITICAL FAILURE!!! "I hope you invested in some good armor." * Kyon stands around quietly a bit farther down the hall from the others, looking even more irritated. Not that anyone can see in the dark. * Satoshi looks at Kaede. "And Haruko tells me she didn't have time to warn us." (Keep it. Keep it! ^^) (Tempted...) (Wow. That's the first time I've seen a *zero* critfail.) * Taki tries to grab Remi's arm and drag her out of the room. (I am impressed) * Haruko keeps up in a loud voice. "I don't see why you should throw PORT! err.. punch at me just because I'm clumsy!" She does an apologetic bow, eyes up in case she needs to dodge again. [Remi moves takes off down another path. Taki, gimme an unarmed (grabs) roll!] Like hell. 2d6-2 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Taki (2d6-2) and gets 4. (woot) ~It doesn't take that long to just fire off a thought, Haruko.~ ( Haruko, ranged defense roll! ) 2d6-2 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6-2) and gets 6. (... *keeps the critfail* Bring on the hurt.) (assuming still plus one, and that's a hit either way) [Haruko gets hit in the stomach with another cuppa punch. "Get out of here! You're ruining the party!"] ~Oh yeah~ ~Hey satoshi engine~ ~Whoops Ayako has an icycle in her~ ~C'mon c'mon Taki~ ~Oww!!!~ ~But now while Ayako's bleeding I can explain~ [Meanwhile, Taki grabs Remi's arm!] * Satoshi looks at Kaede despairingly. "Remi hit Ayako with one of her icicles, apparently." * Satoshi thinks back to Haruko. ~Well, that's not good. Get out of there, now!~ Wonderful. Now she really WILL call the police. Damn it, and we could have searched the house too! Remind me again why we thought this was a good idea? * Katie winces and rubs at her ears. She's not paying any attention. Calling her a servant...I hope that's figurative. I really d...Katie, are you okay? * Taki prays silently to any diety that might be paying attention and makes for the gates, and hopefully out of view of the security cameras. What? Ow. I said are you okay? But I guess that answers my question. What happened? Haruko's screaming? * Haruko runs once Taki's gone. Most likely. Are we clear? [Haruko runs from the mob!] * Taki goes there! [You run from the mansion! You're outside!] (The mansion is trying to eat us! Aieeee!) [Taki's there, with Remi, who's already trying to break free of her grip and charge back in. Body roll, Taki!] 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Taki (2d6) and gets 4. [Taki maintains her grip] (...on the numbers >.>) * Kaede huffs and puts his hand on his knees. He balls up a fist and punches the handy fence nearby. "Dammit! Ow!" He winces and shakes his hand. "Remi stop! She's probably already called the police!" Going back in there now won't help...we need a PLAN! * Haruko pants once she gets outside. "That was too close... Alright, Taki get us all out of here, then Remi tell us about Eiko going missing." * Katie grimaces at all the yelling. "I have a plan! I'll kill her!" A plan that doesn't end in your arrest? In front off all thoes people!? "Who cares?" ( Another body roll, Taki! ) I do! * Kyon comes along outside, and moves towards Taki, moving on the balls of his heels. "Here's your new plan, then. You're leaving." 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Taki (2d6) and gets 9. I don't blame you Remi. I want to do it too but getting locked away and sentenced to death for murder is NOT the answer." [Remi breaks free and charges for the mansion!] * Satoshi makes a grab for her! Ack! Stop her! She doens't care about Eiko. She's not the one behind it I'm thinking.. damn it! ( Gimme unarmed (grabs) Satoshi! ) 2d6-1 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Satoshi (2d6-1) and gets 6. * Kaede runs after Remi and stands in her way, whipping out his wrench. "Finding Eiko is more important than killing Ayako, Remi. Dammit!" (Whew. Just barely.) [Satoshi grabs hold of Remi.] * Satoshi holds her. Tightly, though not tight enough to seriously hurt her. Taki, grab Satoshi and port us all to his apartment. * Katie finally lets go of her ears and shakes her head. "Can't you at least wait until there's nobody to see you do it?" ( Gimme a body roll Satoshi. Yes, SS applies. ) Right. 2d6-4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Satoshi (2d6-4) and gets 3. [Surprise surprise, Remi can't break free.] * Taki runs up behind Satoshi and reaches up to put a hand on his shoulder. "Let GO!" * Kyon stalks in next to Satoshi and Remi, and shakes his head, smirking. "Got the last part there right." I know you don't think too highly of me right now, but please. I don't want to see you hurt either, Okui-san! Not until you quiet down and listen! We are trying to *help* you! * Taki waits for the others to get close enough. * Haruko gets grabs one of Taki's free hands, not necessary, but she's feeling fairly emphatic at the moment, ( Mine! O_O) [Remi doesn't seem too keen on that listening idea. In fact, she bites Satoshi's arm. ( *o.o*) (Do I roll defense on that?) ( Nope. You either take it or you let go :P ) Oww! You're insane! * Satoshi keeps holding on. "Let go of me!" * Taki looks over at Katie and Kaede, "Uhm..." * Katie looks around. Would you like me to come back for you, or will you be making your own travel arrangements? * Kaede walks up to Remi, determination in his eyes and tries to get in close. "Okui-san, would you just stop and LISTEN to us?" * Satoshi actually looks quite angry now. "You really don't have anything even remotely resembling common sense, do you?" (That's Satoshi's battle cry) (Don't get me mad when I'm drunk.) (The lampposts had better be on gaurd tonight) (Well, okay, not drunk, but having consumed alcohol!) "You're the ones who don't have any common sense! Don't you see? This won't be over until she's dead! Now let go!" And if she's dead, will Eiko ever forgive you? Or do you no longer care about her anymore? 2d6-2 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Satoshi (2d6-2) and gets 0, a CRITICAL SUCCESS!!! "Fight! For everlasting love and peace!" Katie? I'll be right back, this isn't the place for this. Sorry. [An icicle forms in Remi's hand and she tries to jab Satoshi's leg, she lets go of it; it clatters (well, icicles don't really clatter, but) to the ground.] * Haruko looks frantically at Katie and Kaede. * Taki takes all the people standing around her to Satoshi's place. 2d6-3 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Taki (2d6-3) and gets 3. [Satoshi, Remi and Taki wind up in Satoshi's appartment, where Jin is apparently playing checkers with.... can ya guess?... a live chicken.] (Who is winning?) [Ok, Haruko's there too. Pop!] * Haruko rushes to block the door once she's in the apartment. Remi: "God damn you!" * Taki blinks a few times and shakes her head. Ugh. Sorry. ( Gimme another body roll, Satoshi ) 2d6-4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Satoshi (2d6-4) and gets 4. [Satoshi keeps hold of Remi.] * Satoshi is a bit too busy holding Remi to notice the chicken. * Taki takes a deep breath and goes back for the others. "I'll be right back." 2d6-3 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Taki (2d6-3) and gets 1. [Taki returns shortly with everyone else. Meanwhile, Jin pauses his game and comes over to Satoshi.] * Kaede blinks and looks at Remi and clenches his fist again, punching Satoshi's wall, which is presumably softer than a gate. [Kaede hurts his fist] (And unlike me, Kaede probably won't dent the wall... yeah.) * Haruko just stands in the doorway, securing herself as best she can. Softly saying... "C'mon Kaede, keep it together... calm her down." And Remi keeps struggling, annnnnndd.d.... * Taki flops into the nearest piece of upholsterd furniature. Ow. Damn it, Damn it! [All at once, Remi suddenly goes limp in Satoshi's arms.] Remi! * Haruko rushes over to Remi and checks out her medical condition. * Kaede runs forward to check her over. ...okay, I did *not* do that! * Kyon blinks a couple times, then moves over to lean against one of the walls, and looks down at her. "Faking?" * Satoshi doesn't let go yet. "Maybe?" * Taki sits up, "...This day just gets worse and worse....Haruko?" [Perception checks, +4!] 2d6+4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Kaede (2d6+4) and gets 13. 2d6+4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Taki (2d6+4) and gets 6, a CRITICAL SUCCESS!!! "That was close. One cycle later and you'd have fit nicely into a sandwich." 2d6+2 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Satoshi (2d6+2) and gets 4, a CRITICAL SUCCESS!!! "My momma always said, you gotta take the good with the bad. Here's some good." .... (O.O) (O_O) 2d6+4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6+4) and gets 16, a CRITICAL FAILURE!!! "I hate being random." (dr) 2d6+4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Haruko (2d6+4) and gets 15. * Dicesuke was kicked by Brett (You suck ) 2d6 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Katie (2d6) and gets 5. 2d6+4 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Kyon (2d6+4) and gets 8. [Ok, just about everyone notices the tiny hard-to-see needle in Remi's lower right abdomen.] Wait, what's that? What's what? That! In her stomach... * Taki points at the needle. * Satoshi can't point, since his arms are full of Remi. * Kaede blinks and searches her stomach. [It's a very nice stomach, Kaede. Thanks for noticing.] * Haruko doesn't see it until Satoshi points it out. "Oh shit." She takes it out and tries to heal Remi. (*laughs*) (Just then, Remi wakes up and slugs Kaede for oogling) (Actually, just tug lightly. If it seems barbed, don't remove it) (Whereas if it were Akemi, she'd probably be quite happy.) ...drugged? Probably? ...Great...she was right...we're going to have ta go back now arn't we? [Haruko finds nothing to heal.] And the cops are going to be there. Not necessarily... it depends on when that happened to her. * Haruko nods. "It's like the last time, I can't do a thing for her." * Kyon shakes his head and smirks. "There's something new." He pushes off the wall. "Look like when she was drugged before?" I don't know. Anyone know if there's a chemistry club on campus or something that can have this analyzed? * Katie runs over to Remi and checks her pulse. "Probably drugged. I think Ayako just sentenced herself." * Haruko sighs. "Alright, so Ayako's a drug lord. So did she stab Remi because she felt threatened, or cause Remi was right?" * Taki shakes her head. Yes? * Haruko walks over to Satoshi and carefully grabs the bit arm. ( Katie, gimme a medical diagnosis roll ) * Kyon looks down at the needle. "Might be able to analyze it. Given time." * Satoshi loosens his grip on Remi a little so Haruko can check his arm. [Time's up! The world explodes.] (*is blown up?) ( Nooo! That's where I kept all my stuff!) * Haruko mutters to herself. "And genius that I am I just got my fingerprints on it. What a perfect night." * Kaede clenches a fist. "How does Eiko fit into all of this though...? I mean, why would an utterly...detestible harlot like Ayako take interest in someone like Eiko and Remi?" Remember what she said about monkeys? It probibly amuses her to tear people apart. Better a monkey than a snake toothed lizard. I hate people like that. I hope she gets what she deserves. * Satoshi sounds unusually vindictive. A pizza? ( Says Jin ) No, Jin. Pizza's far too good for her. * Kyon shrugs quickly. "Drugs. That guy we beat down before, he used her, too." He gestures down at Remi. "She got drugged then, too." He smirks. "History repeats." We'll be the ones to deliver. Let's just say she doesn't deserve chicken *ever*. "Horseradish?" * Haruko mutters as she heals Satoshi. "So I'm a monkey too.. prick.. we can't even be sure Ayako has Eiko, but she's going down either way.: (We shall put this in Jin terms.) * Katie chimes in about now. "We need a place for her to stay." She can stay here. Everyone else does. No, that has some uses......now that has possibilities. We might be able to get the police on Ayako just by bringing Remi in for treatment. But it'd be our word against hers. Jin gestures at the couch. "She can stay at my place." * Taki nods at Katie. Jin blinks at Katie. "She needs more needles?" Her fingerprints should be on the needle... along with mine. I'm willing to risk explaining that to the police though. I wonder how much she remembers. ...Would she need to touch the needle? And after it's been ...in her? (How big a needle are we talking?) ( A sewing needle, apparently. ) * Kaede sighs and looks over at Satoshi. "I'm going to have to call but...is it alright if I stay over?" * Satoshi nods. "Yeah, it's no problem." * Kaede flips out his cell and dials home. Jin pokes Haruko. * Haruko nods. "You're right, could have been a power, could have been a blow gun, who knows." * Haruko looks over at Jin. "Yes?" Jin points at the needle. "Can I have it back?" * Taki flops back on her chair. * Haruko snerks. * Haruko returns the needle and laughs manically. Oh.. good show Jin. Uhhh... Haruko? (Jin...master of accupuncture) Jin looks around. "Where? Can I watch too?" * Taki sighs and sinks farther into the chair. He ::laugh:: sedated her ::laugh cough:: ...it was Jin? * Haruko tears up a bit while laughing. "I'm losing my mind... Satoshi, got anything to drink?" * Satoshi goes from looking at Haruko with a very scared expression to looking at Jin with a confused one. "Jin, since when could you do that?" He's not sure. * Satoshi thinks to Haruko. ~Nope, still there. And, sure, check the fridge.~ ~...you scare me, by the way. Just thought you should know.~ Jin: "I'm not sure." ~Wha?~ ~THanks..~ ~Oooh! Heh, yeah, guess it is~ ~Wow.. who knew he was so useful~ * Kaede ...'s See? Yes. I see. ~And course I do, I'm a girl~ ~And a mad genius to boot. Mad I tell you!~ * Kaede puts the phone to his mouth. "...you're working awfully late." * Satoshi almost sweatdrops. ~I am *so* not arguing with you on that.~ * Haruko keeps giggling manically as she goes to get a drink. * Taki curls up in the chair and decides that one afternoon of sleep isn't nearly enough. * Katie shakes her head. "Thanks Jin. I think." * Katie checks her watch. * Taki then notices that she has her shoes on Satoshi's chair. I need to go. Sorry, but my parents... Good work... And the chicken, priceless. Other people see that too, right? * Haruko roots through Satoshi's fridge. Eeerk. The chicken was there. You can stop going crazy now, Haruko. * Satoshi nods to Katie. "Yeah, I understand. Take care." [The chicken clucks at Taki.] The... chicken? * Satoshi looks. * Kaede lets out a deep relieved sigh. "Thanks, Akemi." * Katie points at the chicken. "The chicken." She grins a little. Oh. There is a chicken. Why is there a chicken in my apartment? * Taki pulls her shoes off and takes them to the door, "Yeah..." * Kyon shrugs disinterestedly. "Because the other occupant attracts chickens?" Apparently, Haruko isn't the only one going insane around here. [The chicken clucks at Satoshi. The Jin "I'm not sure"'s at Satoshi.] I'm sure that violates several health regulations, but right now, I don't really care. * Haruko seems disappoint that she fails to find anything hard to drink. She settles for a glass of juice if one is available. [The chicken doesn't either.] * Taki walks back in, "If all else fails, we can cook and eat it." And to think, I could have gotten Remi stabbed with that lights out trick, but no, it was Jin saving the day.. whoo! ::Haruko takes a gulp of juice and continues to vary between laughing and crying. For helping. I know it's hard with me not there...I'm going to have to make it u-- No, I think I'll keep it for a while. It can be our mascot or something. * Katie just gives up and waves before walking out. "What a day," she mutters as she leaves. * Taki stares at Satoshi, "...We do run away a lot don't we..." I didn't mean it in that way. * Taki waves absentmindedly at Katie. * Haruko shakes her head and puts a hand to her forehead. "Need to calm down.. alright.. guess I'll go home, nothing to do here..." * Kaede blinks and looks at the phone. "She...hung up on me?" Do you need help getting home, Haruko? * Haruko then gives a quick hard laugh. "Nobody really got hurt but us. Guess we won, sorta." * Haruko looks over to Satoshi.. "Uh.. prolly." * Kaede rubs his forehead. "Forget it. I'm going to go home." [Session end!]
