Rei(#1930PBJ$M)





 

 -=-=- Rei -=-=- 

 Probably the first thing you notice about this young man is that he's a tiger. 

Well, not exactly... though the resemblance is certainly close. The striped 

pelt and tail are certainly the most telling feature, but there's also the way 

he carries himself... if you watch closely, you see that every movement is 

economical and deliberate. If you don't mind your men furry, he's actually 

rather attractive; tall, lean, graceful, and with fine features. His unkempt 

mane of yellow-ish hair (the same shade as his pelt) is tied into a pony-tail 

at the base of his neck. 

 At the moment, Rei is covered more or less from head to toe. The main article 

of clothing is the long drab trenchcoat he's wearing; it fits rather oddly on 

him, but it seems to work nicely. Since he's wearing it closed, you can't tell 

what he's wearing underneath; probably his usual red vest and trousers. Leather 

boots (with the toes cut out for his clawed feet) and fingerless gloves 

complete the ensemble. 

 Currently, the poor guy looks like he's been pulled through a wringer. His 

hair and fur are a literal mess (what, do YOU want to comb it?), and he looks 

like he's missed a few weeks of sleep. Go figure.

Ucchan's





"Welcome to Ucchan's."

This is Japan's best spot for Okonomiyaki, and you won't even have to cook it 

yourself. This little restaurant is clean and decorated in modern style. 

Dispersed on the walls are a series of vertical slips describing specials and 

in the four corners there are wooden plaques with spirit wards. You can sit on 

one of the stools surrounding the counter (which happens to double as the 

grill, watch out, it's hot...) or at one of the narrow tables arranged on the 

right-hand wall. It's a place where students often hang out, so the atmosphere 

is usually friendly and very informal.

>Kurasu isn't fighting, nope. She's just sort of... here.

>Rei exhales, taking a seat.

>Rei glances at Kurasu    . o O ( Where've I seen her before? At Lina's party? )

>Kurasu doesn't look twice at Rei. A glance is all, and she goes back to her 

seat, and a meal she ordered. (OOC yes, she did. You just didn't see her do it. 

Really!)

>Rei sighs, finally just ordering some tea for himself

>Ukyou pages, "*Ucchan's phone rings*" to Gally, Kurasu and you.

>Rei glances at Kurasu. "...?"

>Kurasu blinks and looks over towards the phone, then back to her table again. 

She doesn't work here. _She_ isn't going to be the one to get it.

>Rei sighs, and handles it.

>You page-pose, "Rei warily picks up. "... Hello?" to Ukyou

>Ukyou pages, "Hi!  Err, who the heck is speaking?" to you.

>You page, "Ukyou? This's Rei... *quietly* Your help seems to be asleep at the 

switch   o.-" to Ukyou.

>Ukyou pages, "Swell... Uuuh!  Is there any other girl in the place? I need some 

help." to you.

>You page, "Another... girl?" to Ukyou.

>Rei blinks, and holds the phone out to you, Kurasu   O_o

>Ukyou pages, "Hmweelll... D'ya promise to keep quiet?" to you.

>Kurasu blinks at Rei, then stands up, walking over to the phone and taking it. 

She holds it up to her ear. "Moshi moshi?"

>Rei takes a step back, rubbing his neck in confusion   O_o

>Kurasu mutters back into the phone, then sets her hand over the mouthpiece, 

looking over at Rei and shrugging.

>Kurasu restrains a grin after a moment, shaking her head a little bit. She 

looks amused, at least.

>Rei boggles   'o_o'    . o O ( Must be a girl thing or something... )

>Kurasu nods, hanging the phone up and walking towards the back of the 

restraunt. "She needs a few things." she explains to the curious-looking cat.

>Rei blinks. "Eh?"

>Kurasu climbs the stairs.

>Kurasu's steps are heard, climbing down from upstairs.

>Kurasu comes down the stairs with a bag slung over her shoulder, heading for 

the door.

>Rei watches Kurasu. "Um... need any help?"

>Kurasu pauses and looks over at Rei. "I don't think so. Sounds like she got 

caught without a change of outfit. Or something like that." She shrugs. "I 

won't know for sure until I get there."

>Rei blinks again. Something fishy's going on   O_o;   Not that he can do 

anything from here. Except tail you   c.c

>Kurasu isn't exactly going to say anything if he does. Whether she notices or 

not. Heck.. she's just making the clothes delivery. *shrug* c_c

>Kurasu exits the restaurant, a little bell jingles.

>Ushio walks in from outside.

>Ushio enters, with Tora perched on his shoulders.

>Ushio enters and proceeds towards the counter.

You walk out.

The noise of the marketplace just south of here is slightly muffled by a row of 

trees.  This area seem mostly residential but properties look a little 

higher-income than in other parts of Nerima.  A few apartment buildings can be 

found, but they are built to look like large houses instead of the expected 

blocky look.  Other properties are fairly extensive, their stone walls 

surrounding not only a few buildings, but gardens and trees as well.  One 

particular unwalled property is a shrine, surrounded by a neat square of trees, 

this pagoda-styled construction gives the surroundings a very traditional feel.

place..) She starts heading for the Kunou estate, shifting that bag of clothing 

over her shoulder as she passes through the gate.

>Rei . o O ( Hey... I've been here before, I think... )

>*creeeaaakkk* That gate opens with a squeak. Kurasu all but sweatdrops. . o O

house again.

You step through the imposing wrought iron gates of the Kunou estate.





Estate Grounds: North End





 You stand facing the noble, stately manor of the Kunou family. It  stands at 

the center of an acre of nearly forest-like land. There are  trees all around, 

but none of the unsightly undergrowth one might  expect in a forest. This yard 

is well gardened. There are lovely vines  and shubberies planted here and there 

as well, often with paths among  them, creating a nice two-level effect. You 

like the laurels  particularly. You notice one of those paths leads through a 

flower  garden to the majestic bath house which stands to one side of the  

mansion. Another, wider path leads directly through the trees to the  front 

door. You could also choose to move through the trees toward the  rear of the 

house. Your only other option is to get out of here while  you still can.

>Ucchan is pacing a bit, wearing a bathrobe, and o.o at Kurasu, "Finally!"

>Ucchan seems a little different, if you're used to her tomboy attitude and 

looks... Here she is with a hint of makeup,   n.n; "Thanks for the service, 

sugar."

>Kurasu heads through the fence, holding out a bag of clothing. "Here you are. 

Hope this is the right one." She gives Ukyou another once-over... she isn't 

_That_ used to seeing her, but hey. Even _she_ kows something isn't quite 

normal here.

>Ucchan picks up the bag, seeming a little relieved, and rummages, "Oy, you 

didn't forget the underwear, did you?" o.o;

>Kurasu shakes her head. "of course not. They're wrapped up in there somewhere." 

She peers down at the bag. "At least, they'd better be."

>Rei . o O ( Hrmm. Don't that just beat all. Guess there isn't a problem after 

all. )



Ukyou





Well, Ucchan decided for a change it seems, she's prettied herself up a tad. 

She smiles, and her eyelashes seem a little more obvious than usual (A hint of 

mascara?)  Her makeup is fairly discreet: a tinge of rosy-pink for her lips, 

and hardly a hint of eyeshade. Makeup aside, her face seems to have a slight 

glow, you can't quite figure out why...

She is wearing little more than a bathrobe, nuff said.

Gold Coin Pendant


>Ucchan pfews. n.n; "Thanks again..."

>Rei rubs the back of his neck   . o O ( Something's still up though, just dunno 

what   'o.='  And Ukyou does look different for some reason. )

>Kurasu steps back and nods. "Of course." She turns to leave again. "Need 

anything else?"

>Ucchan says, "No, it's all right... Maybe I'll show at my place later tonight, 

wake Gally up and tell her you get a free meal, kay?" x.x "Sleeping on the job, 

che!"

>Kurasu nods. "Alright." She pauses.... then decides she just _has_ to know. 

"Why exactly were you stuck here without clothing, anyhow?"

>Rei sweatdrops   . o O ( ...? Missed THAT part )

>Ucchan o.o; "Well... I was here for... a night out, something." n.n;  "Aaand 

the local idiot decided to wash my clothes."

>Kurasu nods. A shred look says she's pretty much guessing at what the *ahem* 

'night out' entails. "And he left you with nothing at all."

>Ucchan O.o "He?!?"

>Rei . o O ( I have this distinct feeling I'm missing something. But it's better 

then sitting around broke   n.n; )

>Kurasu blinks at the look. Whoops. Did she err? "Well, I assumed..."

>Ucchan sweatdrops a bit, "Err... w... *hrm*  Well so I... uuuh!  Nevermind!" 

x.x;

>Rei . o O ( Don't THAT just beat all   'o.o' )

>What's with a few more rumors... heh.

>Kurasu smirks some at the reaction. "I suppose I shouldn't ask who he is, ne?" 

Her eyebrows arch, 'knowingly'

>Ucchan says, "Wake up Gally, will ya?!" she runs to the house, and said that at 

the same time as Kurasu was talking.

>Kurasu hehs, turning and nodding. "Hai, hai." She walks towards the wall again, 

looking slightly smug. Gossip? Her? Nah... she isn't the sort. Really, she 

isnm't.....

>Ucchan (OOC) I'm doomed... and the worst part is, only guy in this house is 

Kunou.

over, carefully, then offers a hand to the downed felinoid.

'visiting'?" Hey. She didn't say he was the only curious one.

actually."

>Kurasu wouldn't arrest for something like that. besides, she's not the one with 

the authority. "Better make sure that she didn't find out about your being up 

there, you know." Kurasu smirks slightly. "might get... messy."

You walk south towards the market





Marketplace



The commercial center of Nerima has an old-fashioned feel to it, most shops are 

small and usually made with wooden walls and tile roofs.  Many colorful signs 

jut out in the street, filling your field of vision with colorful kanji.  You 

take a good whiff of the air, different enticing smells tempt you more and 

more... The local restaurants have a good reputation, though they tend to cater 

more to the student crowd.

doesn't need to ask.. or say.. anything more, heading into the restraunt.

>Ryu brightens. "Re--" *blink* "...Rei?"

you've never heard of know who you are. However... "Rei, what happened to you?"

you in WEEKS!"

Ryu



This young man's bright blue eyes study the world from beneath an 

equally blue shock of short, wild hair. Perhaps seventeen or eighteen 

years old, he has a strangely naive expression, although he is clad in 

a travelworn red tunic and green breeches which have clearly seen 

better days. Heavy leather boots bear signs that he has seen a great 

deal more of the world than his eyes give away; and from the half- 

breastplate and the large broadsword he carries, he looks well able to 

defend himself. A lavender half-jacket, split up the sides, falls 

halfway to his knees, perhaps in an attempt to add some unwarlike 

accessory to his clothing. However, practicality cannot be abandoned, 

and his hands and arms are wrapped, to the elbow, in thick, supportive 

cloth which also prevents the leather bracers he wears from chafing his 

wrists.

Feather Sword


>Ryu lowers his head sheepishly, and mumbles something incomprehensible.

>Lina nods a greeting to Rei.

>Rei gives a casual nod to Lina, but turns his attention back to Ryu. "What've 

you been up to?"

>Ryu admits, "...I got lost."

>Lina_Inverse walks into ucchans.

>Rei sweatdrops. "Don't that just beat all..."

>Ryu blinks after Lina, and then asks--perhaps just to change the subject-- 

"Rei, do we know anybody named Sana?"

>Rei hrrms, rubbing the back of his neck. "Sana? Don't think so..."

>Rei . o O ( What's up with Lina and Kurasu...? )

>Ryu sweatdrops. "That's what I thought. But checking couldn't hurt. What have 

you been doing?"

>Rei waves dismissively. "Oh, not much, just trying to keep Ukyou's poor 

restaraunt from being torn to shreds, and getting beat to pulp by demons."

>Ryu's eyes widen. "Is that why you look like Bunyan got hold of you?"

>Rei sweatdrops, big time. "Eheh... yup."

>Ryu, since  he has a hard time associating Rei with the idea of a 

restaurant--at least in a positive sense--asks instead, "What kind of demons?"

>Rei rubs the back of his neck, not expecting that kind of question. "Um... 

demon demons, big rampaging shadowy thingies."

>Ryu admits, "I didn't think they had any of those, here."

>Rei looks back and forth. "Actually, I didn't either."

>Ryu says, ".... ..... .... I hope they didn't follow us."

>Rei looks down at the pavement. "... I don't think it was the same 'type' of 

demon."

>Ryu bends so he can peer up at Rei curiously. "What do you mean?"

>A look of confusion crosses Rei's face, as if he's trying to articulate 

something. "It... just... didn't seem the same, y'know?

>Ryu admits, "No. But I'm sure you know what you're talking about." He puts his 

hands on his knees to push himself upright.

>Rei rubs the back of his neck. "Well... um... it's probably not that important 

then. Monsters are monsters everywhere, I guess."

>Ryu nods after a moment. "I guess so. Only, there aren't many monsters here, 

period. It's been getting kind of hard to eat."

>Rei nods. "Mmm-hmm. I've even had to... um... get a job..." Sweatdrop. MUST be 

hard times   c.c

>Ryu STARES. "Where?"

>Rei points to the west. "At this little herb shop... it isn't too much, really, 

but at least I don't have to steal food..."

>Ryu smiles a little. "You don't think they'd hire somebody else, do you? I was 

looking for work, but nobody seemed to have any."

>Rei rubs the back of his neck, thinking that over. "Dunno... I only got the job 

because the owner's daughter has a crush on me."   'o.o'

>Ryu blinks, and smothers a laugh.

>Rei peers at Ryu. "What's so funny?"

>Ryu manages to pull a straight face. Well, mostly. "N-nothing. Really. I'll 

just... just keep looking, then."

>Rei nods to Ryu. "Well, I have a LITTLE extra money... if you want a 'yaki or 

something."

>Ryu shakes his head quickly. "It's okay. I can go back into the mountains and 

check my snares."

>Rei smiles at Ryu. "You sure?"

>Ryu nods. "I'm sure." He glances down sheepishly as his stomach rumbles, and 

then raises his eyes again. "Well.. maybe just one."

>Rei smiles. "That's the spirit! Just like old times, 'cept we don't even got to 

cook it ourselves!"

>Ryu grins briefly; but then his smile fades. "Except we're not all together."

>Rei rubs the back of his neck. "..."

>Ryu . o O ( ...Teepo... )

>Tenchi has arrived.

>Tenchi walks into ucchans.

>Rei tries to recover a little bit of his cheer. "Well... um... why don't we go 

eat, eh?"

Belldandy



Catching your eye is young woman who looks to be in her early twenties.  She is 

of average height, though seemingly taller than most other women of her age.  

She has long, light brown hair that springs from her head in all directions and 

is very neatly groomed. On her forehead is a small blue mark shaped like an 

oblong diamond, and under the outside corner of her blue eyes are small blue 

triangles. As she notices your gaze, a faint blush comes to her cheeks and she 

smiles kindly to you. She is wearing a light white dress. It barely covers her 

shoulders and goes down to her knees. It is embroidered with a blue ribbon, and 

circles around her shoulders, ending at her chest with a tied bow. She wears 

fingerless gloves made of a purple fabric, and encircled at the wrists by two 

silver bracelets. She is also wearing a pair of sandals.

to get one chased out of restaurants with a broom.
