[Bitp:R] Hueco Mundo 2

[KerfuffleMach2]

Well...that can be fixed. Ivaz grins.

[horngeek]

"Hmmm... maybe somewhere else, though. One of your rooms."

Mei smirks.

{{Also, deadtime for about half an hour}}

[KerfuffleMach2]

Ivaz would give a mock salute here if she could.

You're the boss lady!

[strawberryman]

[Palacio Octava]

((Geez, give a guy a chance to watch The Daily Show without looking back to 6 posts between his posts. ))

Ruwa sighs, grabbing at her zanpaktou, and promptly entering resurreccion. Before Mei can so much as say a word, the snakelike fraccion whips at some of the webbing keeping her up with her tail and slithers away. "Don't really feel like any more, Mei-Mei-chan."

...After working her way out of the web, Ruwa reseals, and exits the palacio, wandering around lost in thought. It isn't fair Mei-chan got the shinigami all to herself... but do I even want him? It's just the same thing as any other man in this city... or even Mei-chan... it's all about the physical. I want something more... but what? What more could I want?

[KerfuffleMach2]

Ivaz watches Ruwa leave, surprised at her outburst.

Huh. Didn't see that one coming.

[horngeek]

Mei looks at Ruwa. "All right. See you around, then, Ruwa."

[KerfuffleMach2]

Wonder what's got her tail in a knot.

[horngeek]

Mei shrugs. "I don't know...

so... where do you want to go?"

[KerfuffleMach2]

Well...you did say my room...

[horngeek]

Mei smiles as she begins unwrapping Ivaz. "Shall we?"

[KerfuffleMach2]

We shall.

And deadtime.

[Zerkai]

Pleasant scent of fresh tea begins floating from the kitchen as Canguro explains herself. Soon enough, Lalita walks back and lowers a familiar silver tray on the mahogany table. "Strenght for strenght's sake, hmmm?", he asks as he pours the beverage into two, flawless porcelain cups. "Power and recognition... maybe one day, you'll be greater than all Espadas, even the King, and rule as the Queen of Hollows. Live long enough and miracles can happen, I've heard someone say."

"Do you believe you'll be happy then?"

"I'm happy now, I'm just not content." Canguro explained, picking up the cup of tea, looking it over curiously before taking a sip.

"Maybe I'm still not use to really living in the city yet... just feel like the stronger I get, the less likely something will try to eat me."

[Kuroimaken]

It was always funny how the exchanges between Ivaz, Ruwa and Mei left little space for Serazel to intervene. "Hmmmm. Well, the Palacio itself doesn't lend itself to great remodeling, so we might need to have something slightly less sofisticated. If anything... a pendulum might be interesting, as Ivaz pointed out. Consider that we are not the only ones who must enter the Palacio, Mei-sama. If the Ghost King decided to pay you a visit, he would no doubt find the idea of walking a tortuous path to dodge them unacceptable."

[horngeek]

"See, that's when I pull a strand disabling every single trap. They're pretty much all going to be offshoots of the same web."

So that Mei can detect when someone's caught in them, of course!

[Kuroimaken]

"Then there is no help I may offer, Mei-sama - I have no understanding of the intricacies of weaving a web."

[KerfuffleMach2]

"Then there is no help I may offer, Mei-sama - I have no understanding of the intricacies of weaving a web."

What about what's on the end of the web, then? The traps don't have to be web based or anything. Just one of her strands connected to it.

Hmmm...maybe Vicente could be convinced to assist? He already knows, and I think he'd love an excuse to make things.

[horngeek]

"I'd prefer not to bring in anyone from outside on this job. That's why I'm going to be spinning the traps myself."

Mei finishes unwrapping Ivaz, and carries her down. "I'll start on it a bit later, and I'll leave a diagram so you guys know where the traps are."

She looks at Ivaz. "But that's for later. For now, you lead on."

[KerfuffleMach2]

Ivaz grins, and turns to lead the way to her room.

She swings her hips about as much as she can as she goes.

[horngeek]

Mei chuckles, as she follows Ivaz, taking in the view.

[KerfuffleMach2]

Ivaz's room has many...devices set up. Some for victims, and some for...other victims.

She turns to face Mei, leaning against a table, grinning.

Where would you like to begin, my lady?

[horngeek]

"Hmmm... well, what do you have?"

She's grinning.

{{Mei will, probably, want to be the one remaining free. She is cautious about this sort of stuff, given her position. }}

[KerfuffleMach2]

((Ivaz really doesn't care either way. She's pretty open about this stuff.))

Ivaz spreads her arms out. Take a look. Take your pick. I've been getting a nice...collection over the years.

((Pretty much anything you can come up with will be there.))

[horngeek]

Mei looks around, and looks at what looks like a coffin. "...what's that for?"

[KerfuffleMach2]

Hm? Ivaz looks at where Mei's pointing. Oh, that works for a few things. Claustrophobia, for one. Making people think they're buried alive. Always fun to hear somebody who wakes up in there. She grins as if having happy memories.

Makes a pretty sturdy table, too.

[horngeek]

Mei chuckles. "Don't think I'd want to go in there, that's for sure."

[Draken]

A shinigami reiatsu, with the taint of hollow powers approaches Ivaz's chambers, one that the octava and her fraccion should recognize with ease, Von Geister's son, Damien.

He announces himself with a knock on the door and a shout.

"I heard that you wish the Ghost King's grace, Mei, and hope that I am interrupting something."

[KerfuffleMach2]

Ivaz smirks. Afraid of the dark?

When she senses the reiatsu, she turns her gaze to her door and waits for his appearance. And smirks a little at his comment.

[horngeek]

Mei pulls on her dress, then answers. "Ah, yes. Basically, we'd like to ask permission from His Majesty to pay a visit to the Mortal World- undertaking to not cause a fuss with any Shinigami."

[KerfuffleMach2]

Ivaz nods in agreement with her Espada. A breath of fresh air, if you will.

[Draken]

The door opens to reveal the sandy, messed hair of the man in white vests, as he cautiously walks past, keeping his back to the wall.

"You lot, always so willing to bother the King with your inane requests when it would be just as effective to do what you will and be dilligent to not let your duties slip when you do so."

Which is followed by a scoff.

"Who am I kidding, it is not like anyone but me - and maybe Guerrero - actually works in this entire sector."
