[Action - High School (locked to Feferi)]

[Marisa had been given a specific target for this pranking thing and she really didn't like him much. Not that she's really talked to Eridan before, but the tarot cards had pretty much told her he was a douchebag and, well, at least Feferi didn't make many excuses for him,

So, the witch waited at the school gate for Feferi. She needed to get certain info from the troll. A normal person might have been bothered by the idea of lying and deceiving a friend, but not Marisa Kirisame. It's not like she was going to harm the troll.]


[Action - High School Lunchtime (locked to Reimu)]

[Marisa had prepared for this. She'd been planning this joke on Reimu before she even got her letter, so this was just the icing on the cake. Or cookie, as it was.

The witch was sitting at their usual table with her awesome lunch (because Marisa had the most awesome lunches ever thanks to Ciel) and a container of star-shaped cookies. Some had white frosting, some had yellow frosting.]

Oi! Reimu! Hurry up and finish, ze. Ciel made the best cookies today. [says the witch as she takes a white frosted one and bites into it.]

Lunchtime THIS WILL BE PRICELESS

[paradisemiko]

Did she?

(The mentioning of cookies makes her forget about her own tray of slop lunch as she casually eyes them and takes a whiff.)

Mmmmm...they smell delicious!

*insert evil laugh here*

[adropofjupiter]

Ciel bakes all the time, ze.

[Totally rubbing that in. Really, for all the nagging Marisa endures, she does like to boast about how awesome of a cook Ciel is. And baking is her specialty. Not that Ciel baked these, though she did test them out on the woman. Successfully.]

I bet if I - [munch, munch on white frosting cookie] - asked her, she miiiiiiight be willing to make you lunches, too. I can just bring it with me, ze.

[paradisemiko]

That'd be great! And it would spare me from the school's raunchy selection.

(Just inching her hand towards the cookies.)

Mind if I take one?

[adropofjupiter]

Of course, there are strings attached to getting one of Ciel's awesome lunches, ze. That being you get to take some of the nagging. And, like, do some chores for me around the house.

[At the question, Marisa skillfully, gets a little possessive over the cookies, picking up a yellow frosted one, and then... sighs. She sets the cookie down and picks up her drink.]

...alright. You can have a few, ze. I got a whole basket of 'em back home. I swear, she bakes as some kind of tension releaser. Which means she bakes all the time. I swear, she just needs to get laid, you know...

[paradisemiko]

(Reimu doing CHORES!? Le gasp! But since food is the reward, she's agreeing to it.)

That doesn't sound too bad.

(She's taking the bait! And one of the yellow frosted cookies. She's about to take a bite...but then stops.)

What kind of cookies are these?

(Be prepared; the reply will be in several posts!)

[adropofjupiter]

Keep doing chores and stuff, and you'll keep getting lunches~

And they're sugar cookies, ze.

[Marisa doesn't even look at the plate when she grabs another white frosted one, knowing exactly where she'd placed them. This way it looks like she grabbed a random one.

And she bites into it.]

1/4

[paradisemiko]

Sounds good to me!

(Reimu's eyes seem to glisten at the thought of sugar cookies. As such, she'll haphazardly eat the one in her hand. And another...and maybe one more.)

2/4

[paradisemiko]

3/4

[paradisemiko]

(Wait for it...)

4/4

[paradisemiko]

(Someone might take Reimu for a chicken with the way she's running about the lunchroom, flailing her arms and shouting the word "HOT" repeatedly. Too bad that first little carton of milk didn't do much to fix that.)

Re: 4/4

[adropofjupiter]

[Oh gods, this is PRICELESS. Marisa shifts to sit on the table, still munching on the white frosted cookies. And then she starts laughing. Loudly.]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

[Yeah, milk isn't gonna help much. Tears yet, Reimu?]

[paradisemiko]

Reimu can't pick out Marisa's laughter through the laughter of everyone else, but a close gander will reveal that she is in fact, crying! A WINNER IS MARISA!

Reimu's just going to bury her head into the nearest water fountain for a while. She should be embarrassed, but if cartoon-y animation was enabled, the miko would be breathing fire...so yeah, priorities.)

[adropofjupiter]

[Score!]

I totally win.

[Marisa will just wait for Reimu to calm down. The magic will fade in a few more seconds anyways. Marisa's not -cruel- but this... this was hilarious.]

[paradisemiko]

(And after a moment, the heat subsides and Reimu breathes a sigh of relief. Her face is now bright red; half because her body's calming down and half because the embarrassment is catching up with her.

Though the miko can't notice it since she's drying off her face, Mayfield has decided to reward Marisa on a prank well done. As her spoils of victory...Marisa will suddenly find Reimu's miko outfit neatly folded before her. As for Reimu...well, the room's suddenly feeling really drafty...)

[adropofjupiter]

...

[How convenient. Marisa will quickly stash that outfit in her bag before Reimu sees it.

And then she can't help but start laughing again when she catches sight of Reimu in her underwear. Thank the gods for camisoles. Even Marisa would be embarrassed for Reimu if her chest had been exposed.]

[paradisemiko]

(Thank them for camisoles indeed. She was fortunate enough to be wearing one this day, so once she finally, dried her face and took a good look at herself...well, that surprised shriek was a given.

And since her hands couldn't do enough to cover up, Reimu decided to snatch a few of this big lunch trays to hide behind while dashing out of the lunchroom with an even brighter blush. Double kill!)

[adropofjupiter]

[Yeah... Marisa is just going to be a horrible friend and stay at the table, finishing her lunch. Reimu can handle getting clothes on again. Probably.]

[paradisemiko]

(Definitely when she gets back home...because she's totally running back home. Forget the Yama's class; Reimu's in her underwear! Not gonna happen.)

[adropofjupiter]

[Maria would almost feel bad... except it was totally hilarious. She'll continue about her day as usual with a grin on her face,]

morning!

[cullscuttlefish]

[Feferi waves hi, approaching with a smile.]

Morning! How are you, Marisa?

[adropofjupiter]

[Marisa put her best uneasy expression.]

...we kinda need to talk, ze. In private before class. It's important.

[cullscuttlefish]

...oh, no. Are you okay?

[Hook. Line. Sinker.]

[adropofjupiter]

No, no... I'm okay, ze. I got magic. But I'm worried about you.

[She ushers the troll to a bench off to the side.]

It's April Fools Day.

[cullscuttlefish]

[And now Feferi looks worried. Really worried. Because there is no April Fools' Day on Alternia.]

April...what? Is this some serious deal?

[adropofjupiter]

It's an Earth holiday where... people prank others. Most of the time, they're just silly stuff... but this is Mayfield, ze.

There are some evil creepy people here. They might take things too. Seriously humiliate those of you who don't have April Fools Day.

[cullscuttlefish]

...oh crap. This has the potential to be really bad. When you say 'humiliate' do you mean 'cry for a week' or 'wish you were dead so someone else will kill you?'

[adropofjupiter]

Depends on who decides you're a ripe target. Hopefully, just the cry for a week, ze.

But... you've got an advantage others don't have.

[cullscuttlefish]

The crying for the week still sucks...

Anyway, what's that?

[adropofjupiter]

Me.

[Marisa offers a small smile.]

I can make a protection charm that will ward off any prank attempts at you. But I need parameters first, ze. Since you're not a human or youkai, I'm not sure what kind of things prank and embarrass trolls.

[cullscuttlefish]

[At the mention of 'things that prank and embarrass trolls', there's only one place Feferi's mind goes. Congratulations, Marisa, she is now blushing a deep fuschia color and looking in all directions to make absolutely sure there is no other troll in her vicinity.]

...buckets. More than anything. It's because they're, um, well...don't ask for all the details, but. Um. They're used to catch genetic material that comes out, well, when two trolls do, well, it.

[adropofjupiter]

[Congrats, Feferi. Marisa is now trying to imagine that.

And it's not working.]

[cullscuttlefish]

[That whole looking around and making sure none of the trolls are around just got worse.]

It's like -- like when I read about what things are like for humans a while back, when a guy -- well, you know, that. It just goes somewhere else, not -- stop making me talk about it!

[adropofjupiter]

[Marisa's brow just furrows and she tilts her head.]

...but do girl trolls, um, eject stuff too?

[cullscuttlefish]

It's conchplicated! I can't -- it's bad enough that I said that much!

[Feferi's skin can't really go a darker shade of fuschia.]

[adropofjupiter]

...you're just talking about sex, ze. Weird troll sex, but sex.

[Said with all the care of someone... who's not a virgin.]

[cullscuttlefish]

[Meanwhile, Feferi most certainly is a virgin, if that wasn't already completely obvious. She may have aged while she was in Mayfield, but in troll years, she would still be considered too young to lose her virginity for a while yet. While she's no stranger to making out, she's only barely let anyone anywhere near second base.]

It's - it's embarrassing to talk about.

[A pause, and then Feferi manages to blurt out all her words, though she does it quietly.]

...things work differently, okay? It's not like with humans where you need a male and female to have a baby. It's actually kind of weird to have a preference for guys or for girls for trolls, because it doesn't matter - two girls or two guys can still make a baby.

But it works differently since the stuff all goes to a Mother Grub and no one's entirely sure how it works once it's there.

Most trolls don't really remember being born - or much else - before settling in with a lusus. Which is like a parent-figure, only in the form of a guardian beast.

[adropofjupiter]

...that's weird, ze. But okay. Buckets are perverted for trolls. Gotcha.

Okay... what else should I add to the spell?

[cullscuttlefish]

Well, anything that makes a seadwelling troll use the wrong breathing mechanism is a big one. But it's not a lot different from humans otherwise. Startling, pies in the face, writing fake messages on walls...

[adropofjupiter]

...breathing mechanisms?

[cullscuttlefish]

Seadwellers like me have both lungs and gills, so we can breathe as well on land as we can in the water. It's really embarrassing to try and breathe with the wrong one...

[adropofjupiter]

Woah. You can accidentally suffocate yourself?

[cullscuttlefish]

Not suffocate, because the right one will kick in. But it makes you start coughing and sputtering if you accidentally like -- like you're walking by the pond and get splashed and breathe with the gills for a minute.

[adropofjupiter]

...that's so weird. But okay.
