Session Start: Sat Jun 26 22:00:23 2004 Last time on Hunters: Princess Squeegee stopped by the shop. After gently hassling Maya over some paperwork, and threatening the non-present Leena with an unpaid vacation at the Palace if she doesn't shape up, the wonderful Princess sent the team packing on one of her little "jobs". It was supposed to be simple courier work - pick up an envelope from a shady contact, deliver it to the palace, and do it right now! But nothing is ever simple for the team, and they found themselves pulled into a meeting with their contact's boss, who appears to be something of a big shot, if not *the* big shot of a major Yakuza group. He gave the team some dire warnings about peoples subverting the criminal elements of the town against the Ladies and their interests, then handed over the envelope. ...and the roof went *thud*. And *THUD* again, as the main room of the back offices the Yakuza were basing out of collapsed... [session start] * Lord_Darkmoon pulls out his Tessen, which quickly flashes into a Katana, as he steps in front of Maya and assumes a defensive stance. The room above empties into the main offices - furniture and rotten cardboard boxes and men with guns, oh, my! * Taki moves against the wall next to the doorway, peeking out into the main office area. A bunch of the friendlies in the office are down under the collapsing rubble, but a good number of them are still on their feet. * Maya growls and gets out of the line-of-sight from the doorway, prepping to transform. * Kyouko looks around carefully. The invaders raise submachineguns from slings, and start spraying the room. Taki ducks out the door, manages to avoid notice by the invaders, and ducks back into another side office. This one is decorated in an ultra-modern style, and there's a twenty- something woman in an immaculate salarywoman suit cowering behind a desk. * Taki transforms and disappears from sight once inside the door, completely ignoring the woman. The room flashes PINK! Those of you watching the main room see an invader, this one not carrying a gun, pitch a grenade into the office where Taki just transformed. The remaining defenders have ducked underneath desks, and are starting to shoot back at the invaders. One of the bad guys pitches forward, clutching at his gut, which just blew open. * Kyouko ducks behind a nearby couch and transforms in a burst of harmless steam. * Lord_Darkmoon quickly pushes Maya out of immediate view of the door. "Orders, m'Lady? Transforming may save your skin, but we still need to get out of here with the package. And saving him," he indicates the Yakuza boss, "may be a good idea, as well. ...if needs be, I can transform. I would rather not, unless necessary." The mission's top priority, but losing an ally needlessly wouldn't sit well with the Queen. Let's see how this pans out first... if we have to blast out way out, we will. * Maya looks the boss's way. Are you saying we should hold here, then, or move out to engage, m'Lady? The enemies - you can count eight standing now - return fire on the friendlies, shredding a lovely hardwood desk under their mass fire. It disintegrates in a blizzard of splinters, and the man behind it disintegrates in a blizzard of blood, flesh, and bone. * Maya wastes little time in transforming, clutching her wand as she tucks the envelope into her coat. "We need to get out of here. But going out will draw there attention... no-win situation. We'll have to push through no matter what." I move at your command, my Lady. *stands with Katana at ready, watching the doorway* * LadyMallet falls a few moment after the rest of the people deposited. Apparently, they're not the only thing to come down. She's got the Mallet raised overhead, and brings it down right before she lands- hopefully on some poor gunners head. "You FORGET someone? Special delivery! Have a free mallet pie!" ... that sounds familiar! MALLET GO BAM BAM SQUISH! With an emphasis on the "squish" bit - the man virtually disappears under the mallet, save for a nasty pulp deposited on the floor where he stood. * Lord_Darkmoon smiles coldly. "It does. I believe our exit has arrived." * LadyHeat grins. "Yay for Mallet." * LadyMallet squashes him into the ground, rebounding from the impact, landing and spinning, using the centrifugal course in a two-handed grip to send the Mallet into another collision course- this one sending the nearest, unlucky gunner into the wall. (tech #2.) Into, and THROUGH the wall, actually - making a man-sized hole in the armored barrier. * LadyMallet yells at the new dent in the wall, "THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR STARTING WITHOUT ME!" The remaining enemies start to turn back towards Leena. One actually is able to get his gun vaguely pointed in her direction, but he sprays the wall over her head. The defenders use the distraction to emerge from their badly-chewed cover and shoot the grenadier in the back. * LadyNightshade looks at the grenade as it bounces into the room, "OH SHIT." She runs and dives over the desk the girl is hiding behind and pulls her under the desk, shielding her from the blast. The grenade blows up with a thunderous crash in the small room, bouncing everyone and everything into the air. Shrapnel flies and tears up the desk, but the girls behind it are only sliced up a little. Outside, more of the men have turned to face the newcomer who followed them from above. Leena takes a round in the shoulder, but looks unfazed by it. * LadyMallet pfffts, and points The Mallet at the one who shot her. "You're neeeeext!" The friendly Yakuza are starting to advance, now, and gun down another of the intruders. * LadyMallet says that Extremely Cutely, as well. ... God, she's scary like this. But far more useful. She could be worse.... * LadyHeat pulls a waterbottle off her belt, opens it and tosses it (with a spin!) towards the enemies in hopes they'll get sprayed. "come on..." One of the gunmen gets mildly doused - he barely notices, as he scurries for cover. * LadyHeat mutters Boiling Point while glaring at the gunman as steam begins to rise from where he was doused. The water heats up at a ludicrous speed, searing the bad guy's flesh - in the wetter portions, and his scalp where his hair held the water, the skin begins to peel off. He screams, and collapses in a thrashing heap. * LadyHeat winces at what she's done but moves her hand towards another bottle. Shall we assist Lady Mallet? *grins at Mysteria and Heat over his shoulder before dashing out in a low run and taking a side-swing at a enemy gunman* The katana goes *whiff* as the gunman dives behind a desk, not even seeing the magical samurai behind him. ... perhaps a bit better than that, but yes! I don't need any help! Just stay out of my way! Now it's the attackers' turn to hide and fire from cover. Their numbers have fallen to just three in a frighteningly quick series of bizarre attacks, and they simply swing their guns wide, trying to get people to keep their heads down. Bullets whiz by everyone, but only one of the defending Yakuza is hit. * LadyMysteria finally steps into the doorway, sights up the only visible attacker, and lets loose with a "Mystery Star GUN!", the familiar blast of sparkling light gunning towards him at blazing speed. It makes short work of his hip, tearing the rest of the leg free before smacking into the ground in a shower of sparklies. * LadyMallet points a hand at the one who tagged her, her hand in a gun shape, winks, and mouths 'Bang!'. Cutely, of course. That's followed by running at the desk he's behind, stopping half-a-foot in front of it, and smashing that out of the way. Your turn! You'll be number three! *she follows this with a big, exaggerated overhand strike, which she pulls short of hitting a foot away from his face, crudely.* Lady Mallet suddenly smells urine. The remaining goon who isn't frightened into incontinence begins to scramble for the door, as the friendly Yakuza try to blast him to pieces. In a friendly sort of way, of course. * LadyNightshade picks herself up out of the rubble she's, quite the angry look on her face. "You okay?" she asks the woman, but doesn't even wait for a reply. She's back on her feet and dashes into the main office area, sees the one guy still standing, and charges him. * LadyNightshade lets out a flurry of blows on the guy starting with a flying kick to the head and ending with a roundhouse kick into the wall. Your allies manage to wing the fleeing intruder as he darts from desk to desk, unsure of which door leads out. * LadyNightshade fumes at the already finished combat. * LadyMysteria steps out from the doorway. "That went... better than I expected. Thanks, Mallet." ... thanks! *poses cutely, and flashes a V with a hand. Then her gaze turns serious, and she points at Darkmoon.* ... may I see the tessen, please? ... How did you find this place? * LadyMallet glances left, right. She doesn't look nervous, nope. "Um... The big explosions kinda helped?" * LadyHeat cracks open the other waterbottle and tosses it at the final guy, hopefully beaning him in the head with it. Instead, it goes way left and splashes one of the friendlies instead. He had seen what happened to the other guy, so he screams and starts ripping off his soggy clothing. No, no, I won't fry you! It's okay! In a minute, Lady Mallet. *runs at the last combatant, this time trying for a downstroke rather than a pass-by strike* * Lord_Darkmoon 's downstroke seemed to be a good idea, seeing as it left a nice scratch that cut up the guy's shirt pretty well, and dyed part of it a nice red color. Probably would have been better if he'd paused to perform it -properly-, though. The man flops about a bit on the floor, and empties his gun at the ceiling, then realizes just how bad of shit he's in. He drops the subgun, and raises his hands feebly. Finally. * Lord_Darkmoon lowers his Katana so it is level with the man's throat. "Stand. Slowly. If you can." * LadyNightshade turns to Leena. "Yeah, but how did you know we'd even be in this area?" * LadyMallet closes her eyes, and looks for a long moment at the pulp in the floor she caused, and then the hole in the wall. "... two." * LadyMysteria levels her wand at the man, and out comes the big stream of colorful ribbons, aiming to wrap him up nice and tight. ... I followed you, all the way from where you met Squeegee. The guy levers himself up off the floor, just in time to be mummified and topple back over. Make sure he can breathe. ... You mean you purposefully ditched the meeting to follow us? Of COURSE. Like I was gonna do something Squeegee said if I could avoid it. * LadyMysteria seeks out the boss. "Squeegee is going to have your behind in a sling when she runs into you." * LadyNightshade laughs. You sound like me. * Lord_Darkmoon does make sure the guy can breathe, then gestures with the Katana, turning it back into the Tessen. Which he walks over and hands to Mallet. * LadyMallet switches to a one-handed grasp on the Mallet, accepting the tessen in her hand. She sets the Mallet on the ground, head-first, then stares at the tessen. "... how do I make it a katana, again?" You did well here, Lady. Will it. *steps back a bit* Why? * Boss walks out of the side office with considerable dignity. He snaps his fingers once, and the remaining defenders start sorting through the rubble, looking for survivors and wounded. ... if I didn't do anything... it would been worse. I ... had to. I figured you would've liked to have a chance to argue with Squeegee. His assistant quickly joins, as does the officelady Taki endangered/saved. * LadyMallet snaps a bit at Darkmoon. "Just tell me!" ...I did. You will it, and it does. What is wrong, my Lady? You run a very tight ship, sir. ...not tight enough, obviously. Yeah.... * Boss looks up at the ruined ceiling. Gaping holes are blasted through not just this ceiling, but the ceiling of the floor above. I need to have a word with my security engineer. * LadyMallet frowns, and wills it into a katana. Then after a moment, shorter like a knife. She stares at the pulpy mess at where she landed, then says 'One,' and scrapes a line onto the Mallet's surface. "... first blood." * LadyHeat stares at Leena. * Lord_Darkmoon sweatdrops. * LadyNightshade eyes Leena awkwardly. * LadyMallet looks to the person-shaped hole in the wall, then intones 'two' softly, and carves another line into the Mallets head. "... I've got to keep this number as low as I can. The Mallet was not meant for use against other people." ... Lee-- Mallet? You okay? In any case, my Lady... *looks around* My Ladies. I have friends. ... I'm fine. * LadyMysteria smiles a little, then looks Leena's way for a second. * LadyNightshade looks down at her pinkness and blushes embarrassedly. * LadyMallet hands the tessen-turned-knife back to Darkmoon, then tosses the Mallet into Malletspace. I am indebted to you as well - we were losing, and would have been killed if not for your... rescue. * LadyHeat fiddles with her waterbottles nervously and gets two from her backpack to replace the ones she used on her belt. * Boss doesn't quite flinch as he looks at the puddle Leena made on the lush carpet. * Lord_Darkmoon takes the knife, turns it back into a Tessen, and silently offers it to Nightshade, should she want it. So, where are we, and who's the old guy? *points at Boss* * Boss lets someone else explain to the violent girl. * LadyNightshade sneaks off to the ladies room and transforms back to her street clothes. We were getting something...I guess Mysteria has it? * LadyNightshade isn't there when Darkmoon turns to her. ... Mallet, this is someone special that you really should show more respect to. * Lord_Darkmoon shrugs, does a quick swipe to clean himself up, and puts the Tessen away in his belt. * LadyMysteria tosses a bit of 'oomph' into her words; not a lot, but... * LadyNightshade comes back out of the restroom and stands with the group, but back apart from everyone else. And I have what we're to deliver. Is there anything you need, sir? A new building. * Boss shakes himself. I dunno. I think it's kinda the other way around, since I saved your asses far faster than you woulda done yourself. But I still don't know who you are. *points at Boss again* Lady Mallet, here. *she executes a little curtsy* * Lord_Darkmoon walks up behind Lady Mallet, and whispers in her ear. I'll make sure the Queen knows what you need, sir. Again, I thank you on her behalf. No, of course not. Lady Mallet, I'm an... ally of your group. I thank you for saving my life and the lives of my men and women. * Boss walks over to one of the not-horribly-mangled corpses and pulls its shirt off. * Lord_Darkmoon rises, and simply looms behind Mallet. * LadyMallet blinks for a moment, processing what Darkmoon said. "... oh. Sorry?" The man is covered with tattoos, though a recurring theme seems to be an open book. Damn. Takeshi sold out too? * Boss straightens. * LadyNightshade raises an eyebrow. Is that a standard symbol of this new group, or just his usual... er... designs? We must leave here now. There may be more waves, if they learn how weak we are here. Those tattoos are really weird. No, it's his gang's normal pattern. I just thought he was loyal. As you say, Sir, we should vacate the premises immediately. Unless you have further need of us, or my Lady wishes to accompany you, may I humbly suggest we go our separate ways? *he's shifted to extremely formal, almost archaic Japanese for this* Hm. Yes, let's get moving. ...book Yakuza? ... if he's targeting us, and you know where he is, you BETTER tell us so we can go kick his ass. Um. *blinks for a moment.* I think... I think they were here for me, not you. Why? I will find out. *nods at mummified goon on the floor* The book Yakuza were trying to kill you? And... if you give me a way to contact you, I will tell you. * LadyMallet starts a formal bow, and starts, "I most humbly request...... well, should we kick his ass?" My Lady, do you wish me to give him a phone number? And would you prefer a cell, or the ... headquarters? * LadyMysteria pulls out the package, bowing one last time to the man before walking over and going about getting the boss some contact info. A cell would be safest. ... here. Mine will do. * LadyMysteria hands the number over. Thank you, My Lady. If it is not too inconvenient, and does not besmirch your honor to let one such as him live, when you are done, our Queen, or my Lady, may wish to question him, herself. Anytime, sir. Until we meet again. * LadyMysteria bows once more, then backs off, package in hand, waiting for Darkmoon to finish saying what she was about to ask. * Boss blinks, not understanding the fancy-talking guy with the sword. Until then. * Boss turns to his goons, who have done a good triage of the room. "Five minutes! Hurry!" We should get going as well. * LadyMallet blinks at all the random people. She really doesn't know what's going on besides that people with guns went attacking the place her team was at, so this is all rather confusing. "... um." * Lord_Darkmoon bows to the Boss, then nods to Mysteria, and gestures for her to precede him. He'll walk just behind her, keeping an eye out. * LadyMysteria turns to find a quick place to detransform, then reclaims the package and heads on out. Let's go... * LadyHeat goes and detransforms, heading after Maya * Maya goes, trying to get the hell out of Dodge without gathering too much attention. * LadyMallet heads out after Maya, not detransforming yet. The outer bank is evacuated. No alarms are sounding, and there's no police presence. In fact, there's no *anything* presence - nothing is left on the desks or anywhere. ... so, everyone okay? We're alive and well, which is a good thing. I'm fine...I haven't fought in a while... * Taki trails the group out and doesn't respond to Leena. Mallet. *offers the Tessen* You may wish to be less conspicuously dressed. ... good idea. In the street, it's as if nothing has happened. People are driving by, goons are hanging out, birds balance serenely on the telephone cables above. They may well have this entire area under their thumb... that, or everyone's used to this sort of thing, which is kind of sad. * Maya peers around, mildly surprised. This is kinda creepy...it's like there never was a fight. Next thing you know we'll turn around and the building will be fine. * Taki looks around the area, lost in her own thoughts. Her position behind the group is falling further and further behind. * LadyMallet accepts the tessen, which shifts to a squeaky-mallet, and changes her outfit to a slightly-large grey sweatshirt with 'ADIDAS' on it, and a long dark-blue dress that reaches to her feet. Shall we return to Squeegee, now, and deliver our package? We...should probably give a report, too. ... Squeegee? Um, I think I'm gonna skip out again if you do that. The package first. Straight to the Queen, if possible. * Taki waits for the group to move down a couple blocks before stopping. Uh... guys? Will you be okay going to the queen without me? Why? If you need assistance, Taki... There's um... someone I know... in the area. I thought I would stop by. You know. While I'm local. If you wish, Taki. Thanks. * LadyMallet raises a hand. "I'll go with you! Us teammates shouldn't travel alone, and I wanna skip out too. This is a Baaaad neighborhood, and all." * Taki turns and heads off, turning at the next corner. * Taki doesn't even wait for Leena to finish talking. We should hurry. * LadyMallet stares at the retreating Taki. "... it's no fair. I wanna skip out too!" * Maya picks up the pace; she obviously just wants to get this over with. I want to go practice for the next meet. My legs are all sore now >< It's been DAYS. You haven't missed anything you'd wanna be here for. Then if you want, just escort me to the Queen, then head on out afterwards. I can deliver this by myself. * Maya smiles faintly. "It's bad enough I have to meet with her occasionally; no point in dragging the rest of you in with me." I know the feeling, Kyouko. ...and, I will accompany you, Maya. You don't have to face Her Majesty *he almost manages not to sneer that title* alone. * LadyMallet frowns faintly at Maya. "... me too. You shouldn't have to face her alone, I'll help!" * Lord_Darkmoon eyes Mallet. "Remember our bet, then." No, I'll go Maya... ... which b... Oh, THAT bet. You still remember that? Of course. We can even make it ongoing, if you like. * Maya shakes her head. "You're all crazy... thanks a lot." ... I forget. what happens if I lose? * Lord_Darkmoon smiles at Maya. "As Mallet keeps reminding us, 'We're a team.' And that means we should face difficult challenges together." Don't you have to dance in a vat of live rats? ...or maybe not. * Lord_Darkmoon winks at Mallet. "You owe the whole the TEAM ice cream." Ooh. Right. No live rat dancing. Difficult challenges, indeed. .... right. I'm not losing, then. ... in any event, onward to difficulty! Yeah! I'll kick her ass! ... wait... yeah, I'll kick her ass! * Maya points forward dramatically, picking up the pace a bit more. The group finds itself at the train station. Time to make up their mind who's going where. * Maya is, obviously, going to see the Good Queen of the Wherever, so onto the people-mover she goes, clutching to the package. * LadyMallet hops on the train. Well, the one Maya gets on, and drags Darkmoon along with her. * Lord_Darkmoon is only half-dragged, as he was heading that way himself. * Kyouko gets on the train, shuffling slightly The team was already halfway around the bay, so it's only another thirty minutes or so to the Palace. You have no problems getting in the front door, but a young secretary stops you right there. * LadyMallet lets Maya lead the way. Leaders privilege, leaders curse. Excuse me, you can't just march in to see the Queen! We have to bring this stuff to her... * LadyMallet glances at Maya, giving her a chance to do the leader thing before bowling over the poor girl. Where's your leader? * Secretary-to-Queen pointedly looks around. * Maya takes to the fore, all smiles. "Ah, I have something urgent to pass directly to her. Could we at least inform her that we're here? I'm sure we'll be allowed in... and that would be me." * Maya smiles slightly. * Lord_Darkmoon looms behind her, looking Lordly (and, unintentionally, hawt). * Secretary-to-Queen looks down her nose at Maya. "And you're....?" ... oh, that's just going TOO far. Geez. * Secretary-to-Queen is IMMUNE to the Darkmoon. My Lady Mysteria is on an important assignment for the Queen. Do not force her to compromise your position by going over your head. Get your not-a-princess butt out of our way! We're more important than you right now! Lady Mysteria, ye--- Darkmoon. * Maya looks his way. "I've got it. Really." Yes, my Lady. *bows and goes silent* Oh, Mysteria. Princess Squeegee put you on the list this morning. ... the list? The list to get in. ...you should transform. *sniff* The rest of you can wait right here. ... ...? ... * Maya handles transformation. "... why can't they come with me?" ... no way. We said we'd stand by her, and so we're gonna. She's on the list. You are not. ... Follow me, Lady Mysteria. .... mn. I'll be back, guys. Good luck. ... if you need help, just yell! ...as you wish, my Lady. *bows, looking Not Pleased* I'll come in a flash! * LadyMysteria proceeds to make with the potential following. * Secretary-to-Queen leads Mysteria away, down the now-familiar halls of the Palace. Fortunately, she doesn't stop in the waiting room, and Maya gets immediate access to the throne room. * Secretary-to-Queen shuts the door behind Maya. I hope she doesn't get her soul sucked out...or something. * LadyMysteria holds onto the package tightly all the while. The throne room is its usual self. The eastern windows are bright this afternoon, the snow covering the wilderness reflecting sun back in. To the west, the bay seems unnaturally choppy, though maybe not as bad as the last time you were here. * TheQueen is sitting on top of her pile of cushions - this time Maya is certain that the pile is taller, by at least three layers. * LadyMysteria steps in, bowing deeply once before she approaches the Queen. "Good day, my Queen. I... felt it would be best to deliver this directly to you, as I had a request to make on behalf of someone." * TheQueen is relaxed, and reading what appears to be a fashion magazine. A sad-looking uniformed maid with iridescent blue hair and oddly-colored eyes is perched precariously behind her, brushing out her impossibly long hair. We see. You may leave the package on the floor in front here. And how is our bald friend? Did you meet him, or did he send an agent? * LadyMysteria does as directed, backing up as soon as the package is places on the floor. "As for the request... this was from the... ah, I see. I saw him personally; he seems to be in considerable trouble. Words of a faction with monetary backing working against us. An attack was launched on his hideout while we were there, as well." Oh, dear. It would be unfortunate if we lost his support. * TheQueen nods sharply. "Sakura has appropriate contacts - I will have her look into it." He is alive, but will need another base, as it was heavily damaged during the battle. ...we can not purchase one for him, but it may be wise to find him some assistance. That will be our responsibility. And what of your responsibilities, Lady Mysteria? Are you able to bear the burden of leadership? * LadyMysteria nods slowly. "I am growing daily, still, but I feel I can handle the load I've been given to me." I fear I may have another burden for you - though perhaps you may find it a boon. Hm? * LadyMysteria looks up, curious. I have a new member for your team, to make up for the loss of Sakura. She is... difficult. You will understand quickly, I suspect. A new member... I see. I will do my best to help her adjust, my Queen. She is good at heart, I believe, but she requires discipline as well. She will be sent to you... Friday. * TheQueen counts on her fingers quickly. Yes, Friday. You should acclimate her quickly - there are trying times ahead. * TheQueen abruptly stands, and the maid pitches backwards down the rear of the pile of pillows. Be strong, my Lady. Be strong and go in peace. * LadyMysteria rises as well. "I have a feeling we've only seen the beginning... and I will, my Queen. Thank you." She bows deeply, then turns to leave. * LadyMysteria backtracks towards the group proper, taking the time to detransform and look somewhat tired, even from a meeting that short. ...how did it go, Maya? * LadyMallet claps Maya heartily on the back, then rubbing it. "... you holding together?" Are you still with soul? Do I get to go in and kick her ass as a retaliatory strike? It went.... interesting. ... interesting usually isn't good. Well, she was receptive to the information, but I ended up with a bit of my own. And... * Lord_Darkmoon listens silently. * Maya shrugs. "We're getting ourselves a new teammate Friday." ..... Woah. *blinks* Poor girl.... ...oh. You never know, Leena. For some, this team may be better than a normal one. I have found it so. *smiles kindly* Well, we... fit. In a way. No one should be forced to fight people. No one. No one should be forced to be a magical girl or magical boy, either, Leena. But some realities...are unavoidable. Best to make the best of them. I don't care how much more convenient or less stressful it is, you don't run a good chance of dying if you screw up, and you don't have to bloody your hands... Well, destiny just sort-of tapped us on the shoulder and said, 'Hi, now you get to fight monsters!'. There's not much we can do there. It's not that we're forced to... we can't escape it. We *have* to. No one else can, so... or in some cases 'Hi, now you get branded a liar and a fake!'... Monsters is another story. It's still not fair. But, 'fair' never comes into this sort of thing. * Maya sighs. "As far as I'm concerned, the Ningyo will be the prime threat until they're all gone. This is just... a disturbing development, these assassins. So long as we can get them early..." ... bah, enough of this. I'm hungry. Sushi! * Lord_Darkmoon looks a bit guilty for a moment, considering something...then latches onto Maya's declaration. "Yes, let us eat." Food would be good now... * LadyMallet adopts a Serious Look, and crosses her arms. She nods to herself, then intones in a slow, ritual-ish voice. "Tonight ... we shall feast on the flesh of our enemies." ...EEWWWWW. Leena! Agreeance! Onward to food! ... what!? What's wrong with sushi? * Kyouko shudders at the smell of the man she boiled still sticking in her sense memory. * Maya walks out with resolve, for she is famished. Oh...never mind. * Lord_Darkmoon follows, a bit more broody than usual. Maybe he -is- trying for that traditional bishounen schtick, after all. [end session]
