[EFFECT ROOM] Dresses for the Dressing Room!

[noisycircus]

[Welcome to Lapin Angelique! Everyone who enters this room will suddenly find themselves wearing a Gothic Lolita Dress. They may also have other gothic accessories such as tiny little hats, frilly parasols, vampire capes, or spooky plushies.

Bizarre things will happen if you try to take off the clothes. Maybe it will just be downright impossible, they're stuck to your body. Maybe you'll start to FEEL GOTH and the BLACKNESS OF YOUR HEART compels you to put the clothes back on. Maybe you start taking off the clothes, only to find that doing so causes you to slowly morph into a bunny until you put them back on (or until you're a bunny. But was that REALLY worth it?) It's all up to fate!

Either way, these dresses are probably staying on, at least until the effect wears off. Which could be anything from a couple hours to the rest of the day.]

[Rin's pouting when he doesn't answer her!! but the fact that he still has the dress on when he comes out makes her less ticked. Even if there's a coat there's still those hairbows. How can she be mad at this cutie?

Oh and something about not being able to take it off. whatev]

Eh... are you serious? What, is there a zipper?♪

[onethirdthesoul]

U-un, there's a zipper, but it's stuck...and even when I try to take out the bows, it's like they're superglued to my hair.

[He tugs on one as an example.] I don't think this day can get any worse...

[Rin reaches up and tugs the end of the ribbon, promptly undoing it]

[roadroller]

Ahaha! Making excuses, huh?♪

[onethirdthesoul]

Huh?! How did you do that, Rin-chan? [Utterly amazed, Ryou tries to tug out a bow himself...only to be met with failure. He tries a few more and the same result ensues.]

...I guess you got lucky, the rest are definitely stuck. [sigh!]

[roadroller]

[pulls out another one]

... Ryou-kun this is really sad, if you like wearing bows you can just wear them, you don't have to say they're glued to your head!

[onethirdthesoul]

Ah?! But it was really stuck, I swear...! [Ryou pulls at another bow with both hands, seriously tugging at the ribbon to try and untie it.]

...What about this one?

[roadroller]

Hmm....... [this is starting to seem fishy to Rin, but she'll undo it]

[onethirdthesoul]

[Okay, that bow had definitely been stuck, he's sure of it!

Ryou looks to Rin, stunned as a strange thought occurs to him.]

Rin-chan...may I ask you for a favour?

[roadroller]

[...super fishy! Although, his stunned looks are a bit convincing. Rin crosses her arms and thinks.]

Sure, but you'll owe me one too. ♪

[onethirdthesoul]

Un, of course, that's only fair.

[Jeez, what a girl! she hasn't even heard what he wanted from her yet... But he doesn't blame her.]

Then if that's settled, can you take the rest of these bows out of my hair, please?

1/2

[roadroller]

[That's what she thought. She's only been removing them in order to call his bluff, but it seems he's sticking with it no matter what.]

Aw, I don't wanna... they look good! ♪

[roadroller]

[Still... Her pout turns into a smirk after a moment.]

...But okay. A deal's a deal! ♪

[Rin walks closer and starts plucking them all out, humming a bit as she does so.]

[onethirdthesoul]

[He wonders what sort of scary favours this girl will ask for...but if it means getting to his room without dying of embarrassment, he'll take it.

When all the bows are out, he speaks up.]

Ahh, thank you, Rin-chan! You must have the magic touch or something, eheh.

[roadroller]

After all, I wear hairbows all the time! ♪

[THAT MAKES HER AN EXPERT. Or something.]

[onethirdthesoul]

Un! And you wear dresses all the time too, right?

[Ryou barely managed to keep his smile up, straining intensely!!!]

[roadroller]

Well, yeah... ♪

[onethirdthesoul]

[Casually, pointing up matter-of-factly with one finger. He was straining to keep a straight face. This was so embarrassing...!!]

Then I bet you can get the zipper on mine un-stuck!

[roadroller]

[She's detecting the strain now. Poor Ryou, he's trying so hard.]

Ah well... Whenever my zipper gets stuck, I make Len fix it, of course! ♪

[onethirdthesoul]

[Ah, she was making this really hard to ask...]

Un, of course. Since you can't see the zipper if you're wearing it, it's always easier if somebody else helps you. That's what friends are for.

[roadroller]

Lay it on thicker, why don't you... okay, take off that coat and I guess I will do it! Just 'cause we're friends~ ♪

[onethirdthesoul]

Ah, thank you Rin-chan! This really means a lot to me...

[Even if it's embarrassing as all hell.

He turns around and pulls the coat off, revealing the zipper on his back.]

[roadroller]

[Rin lets out another snicker. She really can't help it.]

All right, here goes!! ♪

[Reaching for the zipper, it meets more resistance than the ribbons did. She jiggles it a bit, before sighing.]

Well, it reeeally doesn't want to come off- but someone as great as me isn't gonna lose to a stupid zipper, ok? Hang on.

[She pulls slowly up... and then pulls sharply down] Hiyaaah~!

[it seems to have worked.] Victory! ♪

[onethirdthesoul]

[Ryou tensed, waiting with anticipation...only for Rin to be unable to get it down her first try. He can't help but feel a little disappointed]

Ah, okay. If it's not too much trouble, then--

Yeep! [He felt the sudden chill of air and the harsh tug of the zipper as signs of Rin's success. Giving an involuntary shiver, he quickly turned around, his hands grasping the opposing arm.]

You really did it! [Ryou was both shocked, and delighted.]

[roadroller]

[That yelp! Ryou's so cute. Rin giggles, holding up a V for Victory sign.]

Yup yup! ... So are you gonna take it off? ♪
