Maid RPG(IC thread)

"Henrietta, are you all right? Maybe you should rest. It seems like you've gone threw a lot, want to sleep with me tonight?" Hira said with somewhat of a worried tone.

[Ascension]

"Oh, no Master," Henrietta replies, "After what I've seen... learned... I don't think I'm going to be able to sleep tonight... I wouldn't want to keep you up..."

A single tear rolls down her cheek.

She says no because she wants you to insist.

[First Speaker]

Kono; I would strongly advise the purging of this place, with blessed ammonia and bleach. The salvage and examination may help us to understand what's going on and prevent future incursions, but it could equally destroy everything here and in a ten mile radius. It is your call, master.

Smooth, Kono, smooth.

..1x2.. so takes 3 stress

"Well for now, that seems to good call Mariam, but just close it off for now, well figure out what do with it tomorrow." Hira sighed, as he went back to Henrietta. As she teared, he felt a pang in his heart.
"No I must insist Henrietta, I don't mind if you wake me, I'll stay up all night with you if you are that restless."

[Ascension]

I didn't actually mean that as combat... but whatever.

"Thank you... sir." Henrietta replies, sniffling.

[Talkkno]

"So, where are we exactly to going to get "blessed" versions of ammonia and bleach?" Hira asked, perplexed by the need for his basement to conerated.

[Ascension]

"Oh, master," Henrietta coos, "let them worry about the logistics. You... and I... need to relax. It's been a stressful day... I could give you a neck massage, perhaps..."

She does not touch the Master, for doing so without permission would be inappropriate, but she moves quite close to him as she says this.

I'm going for the big time: Affection Seduction attempt: 4x4=12...

1.x2 is 2 .....Nerdo or First speaker, if you want intervene, this is the time.

Hira was flush with red as Henrietta approached him, as he said in a small stutter, as tried to avoid her eyes but was found futile.
"Umm.. that sounds like a good idea, Henrietta-chan, we can go up to my room if you want."

[Nerd-o-rama]

*Gratuitous Newtype-flash sound effect for otaku reference appeal*

"Hold it," Rikka says, holding up a hand in the direction of her amazingly forward colleague. "Hira was attacked earlier. With all these people teleporting in and out, we should secure the mansion before we let our guard down."

(Roll 3 x 4 Will = 12 to assist the Master.)

She doesn't mention the Necrodermis thing, resolving to give that to the proper authorities...once she can get in contact with them. The new head of the Order had given her instructions to report back if she found something, but the contact number, for some reason, was for the laundromat down the street. Perhaps it was a cover, but if so, she didn't know the correct codewords.

[First Speaker]

Mariam looks at Kono with a quizzical look. How could he not know her sources ... well.

I know a guy.


Drawing a complicated tube-like apparatus from her big box of equipment (now handily recovered), and strapping it onto a harness that bears worryingly heavy duty shock absorbers, she begins running a few diagnostic programs, while the two lovebirds coo and snuggle.

Get a room, she thought. It's your fracking house.

[Ascension]

"The Master would be safer elsewhere, with me keeping an eye on him. Staying in the basement is the worst thing he could possibly do now."

I'm not sure you can do this retroactively, but if you can... Spending 1d6... 3 favor to raise the last result to 5, for a 20.

[Talkkno]

"Henrietta-chan is right, given what happened today, i think I'll stay in my room for now...with Henrietta-chan." Kono replied in a dreamy like tone, as he went and gave her a loving hug.

[Ascension]

Henrietta returns the hug.

"Let's go, Master."

[Nerd-o-rama]

Rikka looks decidedly moe for a moment as she looks at the floor sadly,

(Affection combat vs. Henrietta, for spite. Roll 2 x 3 Affection = 6)

but pushes those feelings of inadequacy and fanservice to the back of her mind to concentrate on the mission.

Looking at the test tubes scattered about that seem to contain the "Necrodermis", she attempts to figure out if there's any way to remove them without disengaging those important-looking energy fields.

(Roll 3 x 2 Cunning = 6 again.)

[First Speaker]

Mariam watches the two pair whispering sweet nothings to each other as they leave. Typical. Life mirrored art, it seems - but art had permutations beyond the animation of this country ...

Well. Now that's in progress, I think we should ...

She turns, to see that Rikka is already attempting to disable the fields.

Already! I see that more than one person has an agenda.

Working alongside her fellow maid, Mariam picks up a vial of Living Metal, and squints at it. She applies a little more of her magic burny powder to the rim, and, in the background, the introductory bars of a delightful jingly tune play ... and within seconds, Mariam is dancing, bouncing off the walls with the manic energy of a cocaine-fuelled rubber ball, and singing -

I pile on all the thermite
it's such a pretty sight
it makes the glass all shattered
but my retinae hurt all night!

Roll 4 x Will 5 (well, bouncy good-naturedness) = 20 to assist Rikka.

SUDDENLY, GENRE CHANGE ATTEMPT.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the zenith of television that is Lazytown, here is my source, and here is the songsheet. This is an attempt to conduct SCIENCE by channelling the power of MUSICAL INTERLUDE. Things don't always have to work by meido methods, instead the West End can be used. Others are welcome to form a chorus together with Mariam.

[Talkkno]

As Hira and Henrietta closed the door, the master faced her.
"I love you Henrietta-chan, i haven't been in love before...but i don't know its right since you are still my employee." Hira said, still blushing heavily, as he stroked her hair and whispered.
"But if there is anything i can do help you, please ask."
__________________________________________________ __________
Mariam realizes after she stopped singing in a spark of brilliance, that the skeleton lookalike warriors that were here earlier seemed to be composed of the same type of metal that were lined along the wall. As Rikka did a little knobbing here and there the maids manage to get something working as a speaker and keyboard pops up from the console and a voice asks.
"Please insert authorization code."

[Ascension]

Henrietta blushes as she leaves the basement. At Hira's comment, she blushes even more.

"Umm... I... have no idea what I'm doing..." she admits.

Countering Rikka's spite with blushiness, Affection 4 x Roll 3 = 12...

[Talkkno]

"Do you love me, Henrietta-chan?" He asked, as he held on her shoulders and looked intensely.

[Nerd-o-rama]

Rikka briefly considers unleashing some kind of cosmic horror from these things if that stupid bedroom scene doesn't cut out soon, but represses that feeling for the sake of her mission and the world.

The musical number is also pushing it.

"Any ideas?" she asks Mariam, gesturing to the keyboard.

[Ascension]

Henrietta attempts to find yet a deeper shade of red to blush in.

"Of course I do, Master. We all do. That's why we serve you."

[Talkkno]

"I want to be with you forever Henrietta-chan." Hira said tenderly, he gave her light kiss on her cheek. As he pulled her to his bedroom and sat down.

[Taco]

"What's.. What's this place?" Eri murmurs to herself as she stops at the front entrance of the mansion. "Couldn't hurt to ask, I guess..."

She steels herself before ringing the doorbell/intercom buzzer/appropriate entrance-requesting noisemaker and stands with her hands folded in front of her in a thinly veiled attempt to hide her fatigue.

[Ascension]

Okay, a bit too lovey dovey for me, considering Kono's age... Time to break it up.

A look of horror crosses Henrietta's face.

"For-forever? Is that why those robots were in the basement? You want to turn us into robots so we can be together forever?"

[Nerd-o-rama]

Not getting any suggestions, Rikka tries an authorization code off the top of her head, typing it into the keyboard.

If the keyboard is in Japanese:
'Me' 'ka' 'ji' 'ki'

If it's in English...well, pretty obvious.

(Roll 3 x 3 Luck = 9)

[Talkkno]

"No! That's no what I mean Henrietta-chan, please...." Kono pleaded, but was interrupted with the doorbell, as he sighed.
"Can you go get that? I'll go check up on Rikka-chan." Kono replied as he went back toward the basement.
__________________________________________________ ____
As Rikka entered the keys, several of the lights started blinking randomly before she heard the same mechanical voice again.
"Authorization accepted."

[Ascension]

Relieved to be free of Kono, Henrietta goes to answer the doorbell. She pauses briefly by a mirror to neaten up just a bit. Combat, impromptu first aid, and half-hearted jabs at romance all have a tendency to interfere with looking your best.

She is surprised to find a young purple-haired girl on the other side of the door.

*Aww, she's so cute!* Henrietta thinks.

"Greetings, stranger! Welcome to the Hira estate!" she says, bowing.

[Nerd-o-rama]

That's always the password... Rikka thinks.

"...Now what do we do?" she asks Mariam.

[Taco]

Eri looked up at Henrietta as she was greeted, shuffling her feet slightly before returning the bow with one of her own. "A-ah... Hello, madam! You wouldn't happen to.. She trails off for a moment to cover the points of her ears with her hair, apparently trying to keep them hidden. "Um... You wouldn't happen to be hiring for any positions here, would you?"

[Ascension]

Henrietta scrunches up her face in thought.

"Well, I haven't heard the Master say he was seeking any help... but then again, I haven't seen Megumi since that whole business with the ninja started... Maybe she left when the fighting broke out? It has been kind of a rough day..."

Henrietta looks at the new girl and smiles.

"If you don't mind a little potentially deadly peril every now and then, I'm sure we can fit you in! I'm sure with a little luck you'll probably even survi... I mean finish your apprenticeship!"

She ushers the girl inside.

"Come on, let's get you fitted for a uniform!"

Still grinning, she reaches over and brushes the hair away from one of Eri's ears.

"And if you want some advice, don't cover those cute little things up! They're adorable!"

[Taco]

"I understand. Sorry to both-whareally?" Eri sounded rather surprised at Henrietta's response, not needing too much prodding to head inside with the maid. She still seemed rather confused, of course.

"U-uniform? For wha-" The girl was cut off in mid-sentence as Henrietta uncovered her ear, a lookof shock crossing her face. The shocked expression faded quickly, however, as it reverted back to the confused look. "They are? But I thought.. Don't they look weird to you?"
