Meme response--- Hajime and Kayura
Kayura is taking a call in her office. The door is wide open so it would be easy for anyone to over hear her as she is talking.

"Three of them, you say? Well that shouldn't be a problem," she said calmly. "I have seen more. Now how old is the property?"

She writes something down.

"Well I'll take care of it over the weekend. I have a few days off this weekend and I can conduct my research there. It's just three spirits. It shouldn't be a problem. Like I said."

She pauses and listens almost laughing. "Seriously? Aa. It sounds like they have a sense of humor then as far as spirits go. I'll be careful."

It looked like she was going to have a very busy weekend. Kayura said her goodbyes to her friend hanging up the phone and looked quite thoughtful as well as a touch amused. Prankster spirits? That sounds different than violent ones or confused ones.

A nice change of pace.

	She can't quite see the bag. Sadly the dark coloring blends well with the bark of the tree. "If I was feeling very bold I might try climbing back up." But the bark looks rough and her feet would hate her. She doesn't know what to do. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He nods, still a little worried about one of those smacks since his hand is, indeed, just a little bloody, but only about a scratch worth.

"I do not think the branches would hold my weight very high up." he muses aloud, before, well, pausing.

Its not quite a blush, but damned close, as he realizes that he pretty much just offered to inspect her ass. Sure, it was with best intentions, but...

With that realization, he's not being overly helpful with suggestions.

	She drops away from him since being carried around isn't going to help. She circles the tree looking very thoughtful. "We might not be dealing with spirits." She still needs to get up the tree. "I still need to get up this tree if only for a few minutes." She needs her clothes. "I need my skirt." She won't say why in case they are being spied on. She needs keys.

	He nods, trying to keep his focus on business, and not his lack of etiquette. She's focused on the climb, so its something, anyway. Shaking it off, he moves to follow her in case there's further problems or she needs a boost. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She needs a boots since her feet have a harder time gripping without the soles of her shoes. She is mildly annoyed since when she was younger she could do all sorts of climbing without her shoes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	At the very least, she seems to be taking it better than last time she was randomly stripped... its kind of sad that there can be repeat behavior on this. "Can I assist with anything?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	weakerlink 2013-02-04 07:27 am UTC (link)
	It really is sad. But at least she doesn't have any unsightly birth marks. "Keep watch? I don't want anything sneaking up on us and I'm going to be avoiding getting tossed out of the tree again." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He's not sure he wants to know how she's planning on that. And no, no marks except... well, the single reddish line on her butt from being spanked by a tree... yeah, he'll try not to think about that one too much. "I can do that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Creative dodging and praying to some god who may or may not be listening that she doesn't end up thrown from the tree again. She also doesn't need to get thrown into Hajime's arms again. Sure they're very nice arms but it probably isn't right to notice that. "Good. I suspect today will be... Exciting." And she starts for her skirt. She needs her keys. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He alternates between looking around and looking up to try and notice anything that might be sneaking up on her and... well... that's certainly a view.

Trying not to blush, given everything on display entirely out of context while she's trying to climb... which results in all sorts of angles... he looks around the area again. Nothing there... but he suspects he faintly hears that giggling again. How odd.

She thinks she hears that too. She almost has her skirt though. She is about to get it when suddenly she slips.

It isn't her fault but for several seconds she is hanging upside down while trying to right herself.

That was a laugh. The spirits are amused and suddenly Kayura gets it. She saw a shadow after all.

She grabs her skirt when she can and quickly starts to scramble down the tree. She looks furious.

The upside down bit initially looks worse than it turns out to be, he gets ready to catch her again, which turns out to be unnecessary, thankfully.

He doesn't see the shadow, but definitely notes something moving - which could be trouble all in its own right. He prepares, while wondering if she's going to manage to get out of the tree with that skirt, or without something worse happening to her.

	"I swear when we are done I'm calling Amara up and yelling at her! She should know better!" Kayura never yells. This must be major. She doesn't get a chance because something yanks. The skirts falls from her hands to the ground. Kayura goes missing from sight. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hajime's sword is in his hand in an instant, and he looks around. Then up again. Enough of this. "Where?" he asks simply. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	And inside the hotel there is a loud shout of outrage. Kayura is angry as hell. Someone will pay for this. She is no one's plaything and she is tired of being jerked around. Not that she can do much right now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Thankfully the door is unlocked. An oversight by Kayura's friend but lucky for Hajime. He will have to do some looking now though. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	There is a few drag marks across the floor leading to one of the larger suites. Kayura had tried fighting back in the brief time she had to do so. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The private bathroom door is wide open. The tub is filled with boiling... oil? No, just oddly colored water. Kayura is hanging upside down looking very cross. There is a kitsune very busy laughing right up until it notices Hajime. It makes a surprised sound then it retreats quickly not wanting to get caught just yet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

That is a very, very interesting view of Kayura... and within this room, almost in context, even. Almost. Somehow, even with her held captive, it bothers him a bit less now.

And, without being able to get to her easily without ending up in boiling water, he formulates a new plan.

He takes out some of the supplies they brought, and sets out three small bowls of sweet rice, and then tiny cups of sake, setting them out in invitation.

"I do not believe you are ghosts, nor would you wish to do her true harm, or you would have. Please, come join me for a meal and show proper etiquette, and we can discuss what you do want."

"No but we had to keep your attention somehow," comes a more respectful voice. This kitsune chooses to appear as a very old woman.

"How else could we get you to talk with us?" And someone with manners too! How nice. They really couldn't say no.

A second kitsune joins them looking much younger.

"Our third is just making sure your friend doesn't come to harm," the younger says in a level tone.

	Hajime nods. "I am sure that being spanked by a tree will bother her for a time, but she will be fine. She's tougher than most give her credit for. As for talking, you could have asked... but you have my attention. Please, have some rice and sake, and tell me how I may be of service." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"True but some people forget the way things were. We had to be sure," the younger looking of the three kitsune admitted.

The oldest looking of them nods. "We make our home just past the southern wall. We wanted to make a few requests of the people who will be running this hotel. You see while there is nothing wrong with what they are doing we would just like a... few places where we can easily watch the hotel. Frankly, we've been bored for a very long time. Watching mortals relax and have fun is even better than that thing you call television. At our ages you have to take what you can get."
