[001] The Sixty Billion Double Dollar Man

[A: 1248 Williams (Closed to Housemates)]

[Vash would be the first person to say that many of his dreams involved waking up next to a beautiful woman (though sometimes this beautiful woman was made of doughnuts) and so for a long second when he opens his eyes, he thinks that's what this is. Wriggling a bit closer to the poor hapless Makoto, she'll surely appreciate his drool-mumbles... right?]

...'mnot... delicious jelly filling, and...

[Except this dream was just growing more realistic, and Vash was very suddenly aware of two things. The first of which was that he was IN BED WITH A STRANGE WOMAN, and the second of which was that HE WAS ONLY WEARING BOXER SHORTS! The peaceful slumbering air of the room is shattered by a piercing and girlish SCREAM as Vash leaps out of bed and takes the sheets with him, wrapping them around himself to hide his scarred torso... that isn't scarred, wtf Mayfield?!]

[B: Phone (Open to All)]

[Having had things explained a bit more, and after spending a few hours wondering if he'd finally lost his mind to hallucinations and madness, Vash finally decided the time was ripe to introduce himself to his fellow residents. If what had been said was true, and nobody here knew him, then he had a chance to make a good first impression. So the voice that comes over the line is deep and very deliberately manly, with an attempted hint at suave.]

Good afternoon, assorted men, children and, most importantly, beautiful women. The days have been dark here, the nights long and cold so far, and you have been in dire need of some brave soul to rectify all these wrongs.

A man of style. A man of extreme manliness. A man of...

[Wait, he doesn't have another descriptor. He fumbles for a second, before giving a manly cough to cover the awkward pause.]

And what do we call this man among men, this seeker of the elusive mayfly of love, I hear you cry? I am Valentinez Alkalinella Xifax Sicidabohertz Gombigobilla Blue Stradivari Talentrent Pierre Andri Charton-Haymoss Ivanovici Baldeus George Doitzel Kaiser III.

[C: Bakery (Open to All)]

[They say an army marches on its stomach, and after giving his very impressive introduction, 'Valentinez' has decided that he most certainly deserves to put something in his. Following the inner glutton compass that pointed directly at sugary goodness, Vash has found his way to the bakery and all its tantalizing smells...

...before realising he has no money. Observe, if you will, the not-at-all-pathetic sight of a grown man with tears running down his cheeks as he presses his nose to the glass.]

[Cade had intended to use the reflection of the bakery window to look at himself some more, but the glass is being fogged up by the crying blonde man.]

"Oh ho there, sir! Get a hold of yourself! Evil triumphs when grown men cower and weep!"

[Dad's busy at work at the bakery like usual when he catches this poor whimpering pile of humanity crying at the window. Quirking an eyebrow, he waves, motioning him inside.]

[well, that was a rather rude wake-up call! not that... Schierke recalls when, exactly, she'd fallen asleep last -- or what, precisely, lead her to suddenly be transported somewhere else she didn't recognize in the least! of course.

she's hurrying out of bed (the world feels so strange -- dull; she's cut off from the flow of Od? that makes no sense at all), almost tripping in her enthusiasm and the awkwardness of these unusual and foreign pajamas, before she's tentatively opening the door to her bedroom. you know, the bedroom she doesn't know is hers yet.

was that Farnese? no... it didn't sound like her scream. not Casca, either, and was far too loud for Ivalera's. not Isidro's, either. so who--?

she's still peering out, her heart fluttering. something had happened. was it because of the Sea God's destruction? or...

she's waiting for any sounds or signs of people in the hall before she can bring herself to creep out while feeling so oddly cut off from magic and the spiritual realm entirely.

[Cade puffs his chest out and tries to look re-assuring.]

"Well, I can't stand idly by and let a grown man starve, now can I?"

[a strange man?

the urge to shrink back is unbefitting of her, but -- she feels vulnerable without being able to so much as touch what had -always- been there. no matter how hard she tries... she's totally cut off from the flow of Od. it shouldn't even be possible...

[--but he might not know that, even if he was part of who -- or what -- was responsible for the current situation. so... she lifts her chin a bit, trying to put a little bravado into her expression. like she's about to lecture him for ill manners or the like.]

Are you the one responsible for this? I want to be returned to my companions at once!

SHUT UP ALREADY!

[THAT SURE IS SOMEONE'S FIST COMING THROUGH THE FLOOR.

Even for an infernal creature, screams got tiring to listen to after awhile. And she had a nasty headache that she was trying to sleep off and gods you people weren't helping.

She had taken up residence downstairs because she had just...passed out on the couch and never bothered to shift forms and go upstairs instead. So the voice came from the ground floor, though it was loud enough to be from anywhere in the house.

...granted, shouting wasn't very conducive to sleep either. But no one said Okuu was smart.

[She's figured out that if she doesn't do shopping and cooking, the people in the Martinez household are going to starve to death. She has a shopping bag over her arm as she heads toward the bakery.

And stops, because there is a grown man weeping in the display window.]


Are you okay?
