Open! Come to me my pretties.

[inthejunk]

Who:New and old CR. it's a party! Sorry for inviting Yosuke...
When:Tuesday or after. But go for after if you don't want to deal with Pull sickness.
Where:Give me a setting, I'll play along. Maximizing new CR potential. Hell, he can wander into a strip club if you want, or an underground lab. We'll blame the brain fuzzies.
Summary:Happy reunions, unhappy reunions, potential unexpected meetings, etc.
Warnings:Probably some grumbling and cursing, and whatever other mischief people like.



It's cold compared to Inaba, Japan, anyway. Especially considering it had been August in Japan. So if Yosuke is hunched over in his summer uniform, puffing and huffing and stamping a bit unhappily, can he really be blamed?

Last night he was safe at home in his own bed, probably sweating in his sheets while cicadas chirped and the fan on his desk hummed quietly. Today, he's on this cold, grey island instead. It turns out it wasn't just a dream. Or if it is a dream, it isn't quite over yet.

And it's turning his freaking fingers blue. Swell.

We'd better try with a kitten first. It's not a very big dragon, y'know?

[Naturally, he misunderstands the second part of that.]

Hey, it's not like I tried to leave the first time! It just happened! A-and you're one to talk!

[his_own_will]

[ he blinked and then a tiny furtive smile passed across his lips ] I haven't left in a while though.

[ he paused ]

People were worried you know.

[ he assumes, ahem ] We'll have to catch one then. I'm afraid we're all out of kittens. [ which, on second thought, could be damning evidence indeed. ]

[inthejunk]

[Yosuke doesn't miss the connection there, and actually frowns for a second. Eating kittens is pretty badass, but maybe also slightly upsetting to Ahiru and other little girls who might find out. Maybe they'd better keep this to themselves for now.]

Hmm...strays are pretty mean. We could try a gerbil instead? Those are only a couple bucks, and they're pocket sized. Without the claws.

[his_own_will]

But what if they only like cat meat? [ you have to think these things through. It could well be the difference of say, chicken and steak. Or bacon and eggs. Or... well, guess they'll just have to try. ]</small.

[inthejunk]

Hmm...you're probably right. If snakes eat gerbils and snakes are a fish...

[Let him do some quick food calculations here.]

We'll have to keep them away from the mini cow.

[his_own_will]

Snakes are amphibious. [ he's so helpful ] Let's try one of the bunnies out back. They're almost like a cat and they reproduce fast enough no one will miss one if it goes missing.

[ especially now that Reim is gone. ]

... and we'll make sure to keep it away from the cow. [ Oz would much rather not have that battle on his hands. It was far too risky. ]

[inthejunk]

Maybe that's for the best.

[Yep, he's thinking it over.]

But how do we catch the dragon?

[his_own_will]

We'll set a trap for it. There has to be something we can use to lure it in.

[ although this brings them back to the very question that started this. What do dragons like? ]

[inthejunk]

Like a rabbit?

[Yeah, this is definitely starting to become a circular conversation.]

[his_own_will]

... Why don't we just try to use a net. The dragon can't fly very far if we trap it in a room. [ the room might be destroyed when they're done, but far better then luring it with food. ]

I'll get the net, you can corner it?

[inthejunk]

Uh...is cornering something that breathes fire a good idea?

[his_own_will]

[ Oz shrugged ] If we carry a pitcher of water and use those mitt things, I don't think it will be that big of a deal. [ a few burnt pieces of furniture, nothing more! ]

[inthejunk]

Better make it a fire extinguisher.

[Sounds like a solid plan, right?]
