Day 241 [OPEN] - Wakeup call

[scary_music]

Who: Ibuki Mioda and whoever!
Open: Open forever
When: Day 241, very early in the morning
Where: Around the Monument.
What: Ibuki Mioda arrives at the Bastion... loudly.
Format: Log, but willing to switch to other formats!
Warnings: Scary ghost! 2 spooky!

It was just only becoming daylight at the Bastion when a new arrival would show: A young lady with wild hair. There was nothing particularly extraodinary about her, unless one was to notice the "horns" on her head; but that was only her hair styled to resemble such a feature.

She looked a bit confused and travel-worn; but a one hour walk was really nothing to her. Ibuki was far from exhausted.

And now that she arrived at what appeared to be civilization, where should she go? The apparent center of the village seemed like a good start.

"Yoohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo?!" she shouted once she reached the Monument, apparently having no regard for people who may still be sleeping, "Hellooooooooooooooooooooo?! Is anybody here?!"

If nobody came out to answer, she'd have to start invading buildings...

[Edit: Now that she's been given the lowdown on the situation, ... you can still feel free to come across her being loud. Ibuki wants to meet new people!]

[Edit of nostalgic regret: This was before I had Ibuki use -chan and made up weird nicknames instead...]

Comments

[scary_music]

Ibuki should be thanking her kouhai! Well, let's just agree to thank and welcome each other, it's best that way!

...

Ibuki has no clue how to use a battleaxe, though!

[windgod]

I'm sure...there are ways to learn, if that's...what you want to do.

[There were enough people here in the Bastion that it wasn't unthinkable that Ibuki could learn from someone. There was also the monument.]

At the very least...you could always make a magic battleaxe...that fights for you, I suppose.

[scary_music]

Hmmm... What can't the monument make?

[windgod]

Honestly? At this point...I have no idea...

[He'd seen impossible things come out of the thing...at this point, he was convinced that if someone had an idea and the shards, they could make it a reality.]

[scary_music]

Hmhm... Ibuki will have to try all sorts of things with the monument, then!

[windgod]

Just...be careful...we don't know how items affect it just yet. Best to wait until we find a core.

[It was sound advice. What little they knew of the monument they knew of didn't include knowledge of its energy limits. Best not to test those.]

[scary_music]

You did tell Ibuki about the energy crisis before, so don't worry! She'll wait until everything's better!

[windgod]

Thanks.

[He said, finally resting his head against the couch again. At this point, Ippo felt that same relief that had begun in his stomach finally touching the tips of his fingers and the weight in his chest seemed to lift slightly. Tentatively, and after alerting Ibuki to what he was doing, he gave sitting up a try. It was a slow movement, but before he knew it he was back on his feet, perhaps a bit wobbly, but his stance seemed firm.]

I think...I should go back to my room now. I think some sleep would do me good.

[scary_music]

Hm... does Ippo need another lift? Colin did threaten to handcuff you to a bed if you over do it, after all, and then who knows what he'll do next?

[... Ibuki why are you suddenly having thoughts of yaoi...]

[windgod]

If you have a shoulder to lend...I think I can manage.

[He didn't want to think about that, honestly. If there was one thing he knew Colin for, it was that he kept his promises; he wasn't really interested in being handcuffed to anything, especially not with Anya there after the things he'd heard.]

[scary_music]

Just leave it to Ibuki!

[Ibuki will let you keep some of your masculinity this time and not princesss carry you again]

But if you trip, Ibuki will carry you.

[windgod]

Thanks, I appreciate it.

[He would let Ibuki wrap one of his arms around her shoulders and with all the grace of a wounded animal, he dragged himself out of Colin's workshop and back towards the apartments.]

Sorry I couldn't show you the Onsen today...but you can probably find it regardless. It kinda sticks out.

[Like most other things that were here that weren't when they'd arrived.]

[scary_music]

You just wanted to peek in on Ibuki, didn't you?

[Ibuki, stop teasing Ippo...]

[windgod]

What?

[There was a slight tinge of embarrassment to his face, but by now, he knew Ibuki was joking with him. That and between his aching everything and his weary mind, he didn't have much in the ways of comebacks...or anything really. Still, he felt something should be said about that, all things considered.]

I wouldn't do that, you know. I don't think anyone here would, not anyone I know at least.

[scary_music]

Don't worry, Ippo! The only way Ibuki could see you doing anything like that was if you have a perverted friend that likes to drag you around to do those sort of things!

[windgod]

[He's going to decline comment on that, with Takamura here now. He wouldn't let anyone do something like that though, not here, not with people he considered family. It took him a moment to consider, but he might even go toe to toe with his sempai if it came down to it.]

I don't think I could. I've been through too much with everyone here to do something that underhanded...

[scary_music]

Don't underestimate the strength of repressed perverts, Ippo! It may catch you by surprise!

[windgod]

Do I really strike you as the type?

[He said wearily, the apartment now in view and rapidly approaching. All he could think about right now properly was how good it would feel once he was in his own, soft bed.]

[scary_music]

Ibuki just told you that you don't.

I'm warning you about perverted friends that might make you do strange things.

[windgod]

I'll make sure not to.

[His replies were definitely getting simpler the closer they got to the apartment. He wasn't sure what kind of painkillers Colin had given him, but now that they were doing their thing, they sure were doing a good job of it.]

[scary_music]

So, how does Ibuki go claiming an apartment room here, anyway?

[windgod]

As far as I know...you just find one not in use and take it.

[He said as they made their way through the front doors and began the lengthy climb up the stairs towards his room.]

'S what I did...no one's complained yet.

[scary_music]

Okay!

Ibuki will keep trying doors until she finds a vacant room, then!

[windgod]

Probably best to knock first...

[What if you get Anya's room Ibuki? Is that really a room you wanna go walking randomly into?]

[scary_music]

Ibuki will take your advice into serious consideration.
