[The screen flickers to life, showing the slightly cluttered interior of Ken Hidaka's bathroom. Barely visible is a soccer themed tee-shirt hanging precariously from the edge of the counter and a brightly colored cat perched on the top of the toilet. In the background, however, there's no mistaking the sound of water running and over that, a barely recognizable song. The cat glances back towards the bearer of the voice, a look of mild annoyance plain on his splotched face.

The song goes on, pausing every now and again. In fact, he's singing so loudly that he doesn't hear the door slowly opening. Ears peaked, Gent swivels his head towards the opening door only to go wide eyed and jump down, intent on running out of the room. For a long moment, the only action is Ken singing on, oblivious, before the shower door opens. The song pauses, only be replaced by a sharp, mildly panicked yell. A brief moment later, one naked Ken Hidaka bounces out of the shower, throwing a bar of soap at whatever was still in the warm shower stall.]

Holy shit! What th'HELL?

 [The bathroom's door, left ajar, is then slammed open as a blue-haired silhouette quickly enters the bathroom.]

...KEN!? What's wrong?? What ha---? ...Aw, no WAY.

[Umi pauses to stare in shock for a moment only to draw her sword shortly afterward.]

What the heck IS that thing??

[She arrives just in time to see Ken lobbing toothbrushes at the now visible slimy green blob inching closer to Ken. There's no way to miss the mingled look of disgust and irritation on his face.]

How the hell should I know? Just kill it!

Ewwwwwwww...! You don't have to tell me twice! It's DISGUSTING!!

[Umi moves to stab it deeply with her rapier, only to have the wobbly creature, unharmed, turn against her and strike back at her before going back to hunting Ken.]

 Wh- ...Looks like it's after YOU!

[And there goes the toothpaste as well as Ken's shirt. It's odd, really. Everything he throws at it just ends up being sucked into the gelatinous shape with a sound resembling a soft belch.]

What? That's stupid! Why would it be after ME?

 Beats me! But see how it wants to get you!

[Another attempt to stab the creature ends up in Umi's sword arm almost sinking into it.]

 ... Ewugh! GOSH. I'll get your weapons! We need to get it out before--! 

[There's a pause, and Umi's face goes bright red.]

 ...KEN, PUT SOME CLOTHES ON TO FIGHT THIS THING.

[Blinking, Ken glances over at her, a can of shaving cream poised to be thrown. It takes a minute for her words to sink in but he glances down just to be sure she's not overreacting. Sure enough, she's not and Ken tosses the can only to grab for the nearest towel or washcloth to cover himself with.]

HOLY CRAP UMI! QUIT LOOKING!

..I-I'm NOT!!

 [Even if the fierce blush on Umi's face as she fights on with the monster suggests the contrary.]

 We got bigger problems at the moment!

[As Ken flails around for a towel, a wave of blue material covers the screen and the little handheld is knocked off of the counter, the video going all sideways and snowy with static.]

[ooc: Attack of the fridge monster. Ken is in green and Umi is in blue. Have fun!]

I can’t tell through the Network…

Maybe you should ask that Ken guy you are with…? Maybe he recognizes it?

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

...That may do. If he cooked this! [It could have been Aya too. But Umi guesses the freaky beast would be hunting the redhead instead.]

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

I already asked Ken… but are you going to be alright?

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

---We made it through hell in this place together more than once. We're NOT getting beaten by rotten food! [BATTLE FURY.]

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

[ ^^”” Yes… Full of will, very impressive... however...]


I was asking if you needed any help? Either Lantis or myself could come and give you a hand… if you need it.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Eagle. But no need. You just make sure this doesn't happen to you too!

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

...AND DON'T STARE AT HIM.

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

It won’t happen here… well, unless another one of the neighbors…

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

[blink]

Whaaaa..ttt?


I… would never…

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

Right. Guess I forgot. Because you don't cook, right?

...GOOD. Just making sure.

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

I don’t cook… yet.

[clarifies… in an attempt to avoid the more embarrassing subject you just brought up. ]

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

[It was the overprotective big sister instinct what brought it up. So, once reassured, she'll let it slide back into the darkness and never bring it up again. YES.]

YET. At least this one's going to spare you guys.

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

This time we should be able to avoid anything like that.

[And leftovers in future will be more greatly monitored. ]

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

If this is a massive curse-thing... then you and Lantis sure can help keep these monsters under control at your own building.

[Wherever that is.]

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

[She was there once… unless Umi was too cursed to remember where it was. ^,^ ]


We have been trying to do that of course.

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

[The mun still doesn't know whether you finally picked a building, tho. XD;;]

I need to check on Fuu and the others once we're done here...

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

[-.-’ haven’t of course… *way lazy this mun* We should just set up a random lottery sometime… it really doesn’t matter where it is as long as its not in the old MKR place. ]


They will be fine, with so many of them there. But, Lantis also wants to check on them.

[He didn’t say so but you can tell. ]

[soulofocean.livejournal.com]

[You let us know at the comm if/when you do so!]

I think I'll head there later.

...Okay, freaky slimeball's gone now. It just took getting it wet. You were right on that.
