[ open: maid cafe fundraiser ]

[at_heart]

WHO: Yuri, Saya, Kantera, Venti, Lumine, and YOU!
WHAT: A fundraiser for office space for Yuri's up-and-coming guild, Brave Vesperia Ellipsa.
WHEN: Late April.
WHERE: Blossomcrown, a karaoke bar rented out for the occasion.
WARNINGS: Cheesecakey fun. Potentially alcohol consumption. All maids offering black menu services will be linking to an additional top-level off comm ♥

[ When you head to the location of Yuri's GPS ping from yesterday's network post, you'll find a rented-out little karaoke bar with MAID FOR YOU written on a handmade banner that is temporarily covering the bar's normal name, decorated in pink and black on the inside, with a lot of cute little two-chair tables taking up most of the floor space. There are rooms in the back that would normally be for singing karaoke in private, and singing with a maid is indeed one of the things you can do with those rooms today!

The real draw, though, is all of the very cute folks dressed as maids and/or butlers today, who will — for a small fee — wait on you personally. ♥

Take a menu, select a maid, and place your orders... or just ask Yuri what all the commotion's about, he'll be happy to explain! ]


((ooc: Maid cafe fundraiser! Don't worry too much about the coins your character is spending here, nothing is too expensive (though the black menu items are at a premium), we're all just here for the CR.

PLEASE NOTE: Yuri does feel personally responsible for the safety and comfort of all the Official Maids who are trying to help him raise funds here, so he will be actively trying to curb anyone bullying their friends into signing up, and he really doesn't want anyone working for him to be wearing or doing anything that makes them uncomfortable. Adult characters who only want to wear pink ribbons? Characters who want a full coverage maid outfit, or who want to be butlers instead? Excellent exercising of your boundaries, Yuri loves that for you.

You can, however, definitely pay for the "dress up as maid or butler" menu item and use that to bully your friends to your hearts' content. 😉))

[ aw, Oryou ]

As you wish, mistress. [ Down she sits, with even more ridiculous grace than usual. ] I'm glad you consider me a good friend. I value my friendships with other immortals highly.

[kerontribution]

Oryou doesn't know a lot of other immortals. But Oryou's met some other dragons here, and they're nice.

[sangreine]

Oh? I'm so glad. Anytime we can meet more of our own it's a gift. As far as I know, I'm the only vampire here, and I'm the only one of my kind left anywhere.

[ She is not telling people about the twins, not on pain of death, not even if they're there and everyone she'd tell is here. ]

[kerontribution]

There are some vampires in Chaldea. If any of them come here, Oryou will introduce you and you can have vampire friends.

[Some of them are more prickly than others, but they all have Ritsuka's seal of approval, so they're fine.]

[sangreine]

That's very kind of you. Although most vampires I've met are pretty different from me, it's still nice to have something in common.

You seem to have quite a variety of beings where you're from.

[kerontribution]

Most things that humans now think of as myths exist, or existed. A lot of them have died out or gone into hiding.

Sometimes believing in something enough makes it start to exist.

[sangreine]

Believing in something makes it so, hm? If only that worked here, my life would be far easier.

[kerontribution]

It's not usually that useful if you don't do magic or are a space monster.

[sangreine]

Ah. Wishful thinking, I suppose.

[kerontribution]

[...Oryou lowers her voice a little. She doesn't have much tact, but she at least can manage this much.]

Oryou isn't good at research. But if Oryou can help by fighting something, she will.

[sangreine]

[ blink blink ]

I'm guessing you saw my request for help?

[kerontribution]

Oryou reads the network sometimes.

[sangreine]

I appreciate the offer. I'm not sure there's anything I can't handle myself [ or if not, she has made recent very close acquaintances that will light any threats to her on fire ] but it never hurts to have someone to call if I need help.

Did you gather what it's about?

[kerontribution]

...Genes, Oryou thinks? Stuff Oryou doesn't really get.

[She is not a Science Dragon.]

[sangreine]

Yes, something like that. Don't worry, I don't really get it either.

But I don't want to fall into hibernation, so I'll have to place my trust in those who do get it.

[kerontribution]

If Oryou can help by fighting, or eating something, or... haggling? Oryou's good at those things. You should let Oryou know.

[sangreine]

...Haggling?

[ Yeah, she didn't expect that. Unless haggling is code for "threaten to eat". ]

[kerontribution]

Oryou knows how to get a bargain as a customer and how to make a sale as a seller. Oryou's run shops a couple times before with great products.

[Things you pick up when your husband founds a trading company.]

[sangreine]

Ah, I see.

I'll be out in the segments a fair bit, it would be nice to have another fighter with me.

But perhaps more importantly, when they test the cures on me, I'll need strong ones present in case I go out of control. You'd have to be willing to kill me.

vore talk, as you do.

[kerontribution]

If Oryou killed you, she would want to eat you instead of wasting you. And then your friends would probably be upset.

[At least she recognizes that??]

[sangreine]

I turn to stone when I die. Stone and blood gems. I'm not sure you'd want to eat that.

[kerontribution]

That doesn't sound tasty. Oryou changes her mind.

[and none of Saya's friends have to be upset, as a side bonus.]

[sangreine]

I thought you might.

So there's nothing to worry over.

[kerontribution]

Right. Oryou will definitely keep you from doing anything you'd feel bad about, so you can relax.

[sangreine]

[ That's sweet, but the entire concept of losing control and forcing people to fight her to protect others from her is itself traumatic, even if Saya is the sole injury that results from it. ]

I appreciate that, thank you.
