[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.]

I'd avoid rooms like that in the future, then. They might end up putting you in something worse. Like a wedding dress.

And as hilarious as that would be, I don't think I can afford to lose the ribs.

[stealshinies]

A wedding dress? What kind of sadistic dress requires you to lose your ribs in order to wear it?! Gyahaha!

[T-too funny... He'd like to see her squeezed into one of those!]

[moderndaydragon]

It's a dress for when someone gets married. And when I said "lose my ribs," I mean from laughing at how ridiculous you would look in it, not to wear the dress.

[stealshinies]

Marriage...? [The word didn't ring any bells, but finding out the joke had been a jab at him made his expression turn hateful in a way, even if he was still smiling.]

If that happens, I'll just have to shut you up.

[moderndaydragon]

Right...

[She knows he will, too, so it's more a noise of understanding than anything. Why does she bother talking to him? Those cute moments aren't even remotely worth all this.

Sigh. She heads for the door yet again, hoping to get out this time.]

[stealshinies]

[Bakura feels up his freed torso again, letting out a pleased sigh.]

H-hehe...tonight, I have more lessons for you, Karasu. Don't make me find you.

[Other than that, he'll let her leave.]

[moderndaydragon]

And if I say I'm not interested?

[stealshinies]

But you are, aren't you? That dragon that writhes within you...

[moderndaydragon]

[Sigh. She's no good at bluffing.]

Fine. When and where?

[stealshinies]

[He had a feeling she was, but even if she wasn't Bakura had had plans to try and coax her into coming. He was just trying the easiest option first.]

Here, when the sunsets and just disappears behind the treetops.

[moderndaydragon]

All right. I'll be back around then. I'm not used to telling the time with the sun, but it doesn't sound too hard.

[stealshinies]

Tch. When the sky is purple, you idiot!

[moderndaydragon]

[She just rolls her eyes at that, but leaves without another word. Sheesh... maybe she should show up late, just to piss him off...]

[stealshinies]

[Whether she shows up late or not, Bakura will be waiting in his room a bit past the scheduled time. It was partially because she seemed to stupid to understand his directions than anything, but more because he was sitting at his little carved-up coffee table eating messily.]

[moderndaydragon]

[Karasu had given just being late and leaving him hanging some serious thought, but eventually decided that hearing him bitch wasn't worth it. As such, she waited until the sun had gone completely down before making her way over, not even bothering to knock unless it was locked and striding in.]

...You'd think you were raised by wolves.

[stealshinies]

Karasuuu~
[He licked some of the blood and juices off his fingers, setting down the hunk of flesh-on-bone down.]

Close enough. I was raised by angry and vengeful spirits after all, h-hehe...

[moderndaydragon]

[Ug. The way he said her name made her want to shudder, but that next part gets her full attention.]

You what now?

[stealshinies]

I told you how the Millenniums Items were made, didn't I? [Hell if he knows. He probably said it at some point.] They're made from the dead...my slaughtered village of Kul Elna!

[He leans over the table, grinning a bloody grin as he went on in a more hushed, but no less harsh tone.]

Restless souls can't move on, you know! They need to have their desires quenched, whatever unfinished business it is that keeps them in this world... And the spirits of Kul Elna are still waiting for that, and so they wait with me.

[moderndaydragon]

[Well, now she knows why this guy is so freaky. If he was raised by vengeful spirits, she really should just be thankful he isn't a serial killer or trying to eat her heart or something like that.]

R...ight... Duly noted...

[Eck. She'll be standing way over here, thanks.]

[stealshinies]

[Not caring about her discomfort, and actually enjoying it to a degree, Bakura works on finishing up his food. It looks like she should have been late after all...]

[moderndaydragon]

[That's what she gets for being on time. She makes a mental note to be tardy as she leans against the wall, closing her eyes and just trying to block out the sound and ignore him, letting her mind wander to various, happier things as she temporarily checks out.]

[stealshinies]

[Before she knows it, Bakura's done, not bothering to clean his hands with anything but his tongue and some disheveled sheet as he comes over to meet her.]

I hope you're ready. This test will be much harder than the last.

[moderndaydragon]

[His voice manages to at least get her out of her daydreaming, though she gives him a somewhat wary look.]

What makes you say that?

this thread now dates 11/02 so things match up

[stealshinies]

[Since his Ba failed to do his bidding earlier, Karasu might come in some handy now.]

It takes a certain level of deftness...but we'll see! You might actually be able to do it, if you use that song of yours.

[Bakura gestures vaguely.]

I want you to steal something from a "Malik Ishtar". He'd never suspect anything from a pretty girl like you, right?

[It's hard to tell if that last line is sarcastic or not, given his usual attitude.]

[moderndaydragon]

No.

[The reply is almost immediate and she's giving him a flat look.]
