    He stood again and once more offered her his arm, but a different arm this time: this way, she could use him as a living crutch until the scene cut away.

    She hesitantly accepted his arm and leaned against him like a crutch, looking away from flushedness. Her brimstone odor levels rising. "T-thank you again..."

    "Ante burns the beast to a crisp with a burst of fire from her palm." Ante says, as she attempts to do just that. Yes, she doesn't care the least bit about the adventure game mechanics.

    Point-And...Burn?

    She burns the monster, but it doesn't go away. She's just bought some more time.

    "It looks like that won't work here." The narrarator intone snidely.

    Snuggles!

    Snuggles crawls up to hug her face. Because she should not have tempted fate.

    Back Through the Woods

    "Oh, it's nothing...What made you want to work here, anyway?"

    He asked.

    " Oh I'm sorry Miss Yuki! I told him about my plan for us to live together and anyway hang on I'll see if I can get him off."

    Lune raised her hands in front of her and tried to talk to Snuggles out of this mess.

    < Snuggles! I know you're excited but please let Miss Yuki go. >

    Yuki doesn't listen to Lune.

    She's too busy running in circles, wildly flailing her arms. Her eye is wide in horror and terror, and a wide variety of muffled shrieks and screams can be heard from beneath Snuggles.

    "...Well that's not what I had hoped for." Ante grimaces. "Hani, run!"

    Ante is, noticeably, not running, but planning to hold the beast off for Hani to make her escape.

    She decided to try the diplomatic approach by, well, approaching the monster. "Um ... h-hello?"

    He pauses for a moment, confused...And then advances anyway.

    "The monster has nothing to say to Hani."

    It appears that its confusion did buy them time for one last action apiece, though.

    Snuggles!

    Terran reaches out a hand to grab the cuddlefish as Yuki runs around in a panic. Protecting the maids was in his duties, after all.

    In case she resists by flailing about some more.

    Merry visibly froze in a place as she tried to form sentences from scattered words in her head.

    "Oh...uh...ah..well...it ah, seemed like a better work environment for me rather than the tavern I worked as a barmaid as, and stuff."
    With her free hand, she found herself fretting with her apron.

    Yuki continues to scream beneath Snuggles' tentacular form, and flail her arms wildly. She may or may not smack Terran a time or five as he tries to help her. (Athletics: (1d6x2)[4])

    Once Snuggles is finally wrenched off of her face, it is quite obvious that whatever composure and professionalism the assassin had 30 seconds ago is now long gone.

    "EW EW EW EW EW!!" she whines, her eye wide and her face contorted in horrified disgust. She begins to paw at her cheeks, frantically wiping away the slime and ichor the cuddlefish no doubt left. "It was on my face! My mouth was open! Tentacles! Tentacles everywhere! I feel violated! Ew ew ew ew!"

    Through the Forest

    Leon blinked at this.
    "Let me see if I understand you... Living in near-total isolation, at the back end of the universe, tending to a prince who is, at the best of rumors, terribly disfigured and at the worst of the rumors terribly deranged... Is the better option. Than working at that bar."

    He recited this idea with a sort of wide-eyed disbelief and almost horror, the two warring until at last, he shuddered.

    "Remind me never to go to that bar."


    ----

    Terran dodges the blows by leaning back. He looks slightly unnerved by this whole display -- he really does not know how to handle people. He hands Snuggles to Lune.

    "M-Miss Yuki...Please, compose thyself?"

    He asked more than ordered.

    ---

    Sadly, it's no good. The monster descends upon them, but before they actually feel the terrifying parts, everything goes black and they hear the narrator.

    "It looks like these maids are a Big Feast for a Big Beast.
    Thank you for playing Maids' Quest."


    They each take 3 stress and are back at the start of the room -- it's dark again, and the objects they took are gone, and the objects on the table are replaced.

    Yuki flees to the nearest corner, where she crosses her arms over her chest, scowls, and shudders. "I am about as composed as one can be when they've been through such an experience," she hisses, glaring not at Terran, but at Snuggles. "My mouth was open." Another shudder.

    Back to the Lawn

    They reached the edge of the woods again. Leon stretched happily in the full sunlight.
    "Well, at least they're not there; Which means we still have one other place to check....If you're up to it, my dear."

    Library

    "<Alright!>" Snuggles said cheerily. He sort of didn't mind the screaming.

    "Yes, and that is terrible...But panic doth all an ill turn. What if thou had struck Lune in thy frenzy?...And, anyway, it is my duty to help restore order in such circumstances."

    Yuki's eye twitches. "Your 'duty' needs to improve its bedside manner..." the assassin growls quietly. "I mean really!" she throws her hands up in exasperation, "What if that thing was some sort parasitic organism? A symbiotic creature? What if it had laid eggs in my throat? I mean, what if hours from now, another Cuddlefish erupts out of my chest? Oh, no, I know what will happen. You'll try to do your 'duty' and calm everyone down, telling me to relax as a Cuddlefish crawls out of my chest cavity. You may even tell it to calm down too! 'Now now, Cuddles Junior, stop making those disturbing screeee noises.' But no, that's fine, you go on and do your duty," she quips, crossing her arms and averting her gaze from the butler. "I'll just sit here. Traumatized. Possibly infected with Cuddlefish larvae," she huffs.

    Poor Terran. Yuki seems to be venting on him...

    Terran took it quietly. After all, he dealth with Leon on a daily basis. When she was done, he just quietly shook his head.

    "I would not allow that to occur...And, anyway, didn't I remove it from thee in the first place?"

    Yuki stares off to the side for a moment. "It is alright Lune. It is not your fault..." she mutters.

    Yuki rises to her feet, and dusts herself off. She'll need to change her blouse asap - this one is now uncomfortably cold and wet.

    The assassin is quiet for a moment, before turning towards Terran. Her eye, though, evades directly looking at him, instead opting to study a nearby bookshelf. "I am sorry for my outburst. I was lashing out. You did not deserve such unkind words. I have no right to remark unfairly about anyone just doing their job..." she quietly apologizes.

    The Torch is lit. There's still a rope and a bag of peas on the table, like before. Looks like they have time to grab some stuff and maybe round the corner before the monster arrives.

    Lune looked around before settling on both maid and butler.

    " Perhaps there is a lead somewhere else in here." She paused a bit before going on. " If it's alright with the two of you I would like to get Snuggles comfortable in my room before going on. "

    She smiled politely. " And to not risk any further incidents."

    Yuki shrugs. "I have no complaints. I think me and Sir Terran should carry on the pursuit in your absence, though. We can't let Hani get too far ahead, lest we lose her trail..." she observes.

    "Let me at least find you something to lean on more freely... Though...If we had not so much to do...It would be my delight to be the one you can lean on."

    He says, his voice taking on an almost theatrical romantic quality. Then he added, with a laugh that was much less serious,

    "But you seem a little shy, so I'll hold off on that sort of thought. For now."


    ---

    "Very well, then. We will try and recover the trail while thou settlest in thy new companion."

    Terran looked around the library, crossing his arms and sighing. It was an intimidating prospect indeed.
