foxweddings[Well the denim is hardly to her tastes, but that's not why Tamamo is here. She'll keep her tongue about her for the time being as she enters the, uh, panthouse, and doesn't stop until she's in front of Carlos]
... Do you know why you are here?
[straight to the point, all business.]

no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 03:13 am (UTC)[A pause, before she ... goes to sit next to him, or just in front of him, her kimono flowing around her like a waterfall]
I will listen for as long as you permit.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 03:17 am (UTC)[Next or in front of him -- either one works. He's seated at the jable, pretty much staring at his hands like he isn't sure what to do now.]
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 03:19 am (UTC)My concerns are why you seem to be sharing the punishment with Polly-san.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 03:32 am (UTC)You heard what she said, right? The ritual didn't work with Nathan or Chuuya, but it worked when she used me. And then... we both got ripped to shreds.

Date: 2019-10-13 03:38 am (UTC)[Her voice tightens before she sighs as well]
It seems your luck is poor, Carlos-san.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 04:28 am (UTC)Tell me about it. It's been one bad thing after another.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 04:34 am (UTC)You are familiar with my Master -- Junpei-san.
Then were you also taken from the game he was in?
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 04:39 am (UTC)Yeah, I was. I'm surprised he told you about that.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 04:42 am (UTC)[Her fingers drum against the ground]
And he mentioned that I could extend my trust to you as well. I believe him, which is why I am sorry I can't do more to help you.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 04:47 am (UTC)[Which is, uh. Super weird and he's mildly scandalized because JUNPEI TENMYOUJI HE KNOWS YOUR FIANCE, but.]
You don't have to apologize. It might not look that way right now, but we'll figure something out. This isn't the first time I've been in a life-or-death situation.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 05:03 am (UTC)[She would have removed his eyes otherwise, tee-fuckin-hee]
And I assumed as much. Master explained some of the mechanics to me... many trapped rooms that you were meant to escape. I don't suppose this lounge we're in would be another, would it?

Date: 2019-10-13 05:17 am (UTC)no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 05:30 am (UTC)... Even still, while my abilities are taken from me, that knowledge won't be of much use here, I fear.

Date: 2019-10-13 05:46 am (UTC)[massaging her chin in thought]
It would help if these demons were susceptible to a talisman's power. Not that I have any on me, but even if there was a way to make one...

Date: 2019-10-13 05:52 am (UTC)[Hmm]
Do you know of anyone who attempted to break into any of those places? I'm not particularly patient, but neither do I want to waste my time if others before me have already failed.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 06:06 am (UTC)Sorry. I only know about the ones that were successful. If anyone's tried to break into the other places, I haven't heard about it.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 06:16 am (UTC)[... A pause on her end. Her glance falls to the wayside, briefly]
Under normal circumstances, I would take my Master with me, as back-up.
Carlos-san, what do you suggest? You're more familiar with him than I, and above all else, I do not want to jeopardize his safety. But if you believe it an unnecessary concern on my part...
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 06:47 am (UTC)Junpei's reliable. He'll watch your back, and he will always prioritize the lives of people he cares about no matter what. He's... Well, I won't lie. He's hotheaded and gets ahead of himself a lot, but he's no idiot. And he's gotten himself out of sticky situations before. [Gotta drag your bro while complimenting him, of course.] ... I'm really glad you're worried about his safety. But you don't have to worry about him that much.
[A beat.]
Just— Make sure you take someone who knows how to throw a punch if you take him anywhere. He's tried to beat me up in the past and he still couldn't knock me out.
[ONE LAST DRAG!!!]
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 06:52 am (UTC)Oh rest assured, any fighting that must be done, I'll be handling that myself~♥ Master already knows he best hang in the back and let me take care of things.
[Junpei, forever being bossed around by short, powerful women]
... But I thank you, Carlos-san. The circumstances of our contract were... unique, and I suppose I've been underestimating him in my own way.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 06:56 am (UTC)[It's Junpei's destiny to be a bottom.]
... He keeps surprising me every day, so... Give him a chance to do the same for you, too. [Ah.] Though, don't hesitate to call him out every now and then. It'll do him good.
no subject
Date: 2019-10-13 07:06 am (UTC)[...]
I do not know what will happen to you tomorrow, and don't wish to offer empty words of condolence. So instead I'll ask if there is anything you think I should be aware of.
[For Junpei's sake, really, though she's trying not to do that overbearing worry thing]
