Who: Ahiru + Residents of the Disaster House + Reaper
What: A VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
When: Sometime after Fern's recovery
Where: The Disaster House

Content Warnings: N/A


[ so after much waffling and discussion with fakir, ahiru finally came to the conclusion that she needs to tell her friends the truth. well . . . her house mates at least. she wasn't going to go around blabbing it to everyone. she wasn't quite ready for that.

but if there's one thing this place has taught her, it's not safe to keep her secret all to herself. ahiru needed people in her corner and she believed her house-mates would protect her.

and hopefully . . . not too much will change. she hopes. ]

Uhm, I'm glad you're all here. I have something important to tell you guys. I've been keeping a secret.

Not like a big secret or a dark secret, but more like a secret about me. A personal, kind of weird, don't freak out sort of secret.

[danserai]

Yes. I can't do it without the pendant.

[ she wonder if she should mention why. that drosselmeyer ultimately wants her to die for tragedy in his story.

. . . probably not. ]

[no_reload]

Do you know what would happen if it were lost, damaged or destroyed?

[He'd definitely take issue with future duck murder for love.]

[danserai]

If I lose it, I lose my ability to change into a girl. I go back to being a duck.

I don't know about the other stuff.

[no_reload]

You'd be ducking out of luck on your mission.

[So the pendant had to stay.]

How does ballet feed into this mission? You just enjoy it, or is it part of the mission?

[danserai]

I like ballet!

. . . But he goes to ballet school.

[no_reload]

Oh ho ho, you and he are in ballet school together? What an opportunity to have him hold you.

[Sorry Ahiru, he was a dad, so he was going to tease with a small assortment of people. She was one of the 'lucky' ones.]

[danserai]

[ dlfgjhdfg ]

M-Mr. Reaper! You can't just do that!

[no_reload]

I'm counting hands on your waist and tossing you in the air. Do you two do that in school?

[Embarrassment only fuels him.]

[danserai]

I wouldn't — We wouldn't do that in school where everyone can see — Though we did do that in the practice room, but I don't know if that counts . . .

[no_reload]

[He snorted in amusement.]

Oh, so he puts his hands on you in private? Oh you kids these days....

[danserai]

It — It's not like that!

[no_reload]

It's okay. I know you're just practicing.

[danserai]

[ the blush hasn't diminished and there's steam coming out of her ears. ]

Y-Yes, that's what happened . . .

[no_reload]

[She made this teasing worth every second.]

As long as everyone was clothed, no harm done.

1/???

[danserai]

C — C —

[danserai]

[ loud duck screaming in her head ]

3/3 end

[danserai]

[ it's too much, brain has fizzled. ]

[no_reload]

[Well, that's the end of that. They'd reached the end point, and Reaper wasn't even bothering to stop himself from chuckling.

He even reached out to pat her on the head.]

No wonder everyone wants to protect you. Now off you go and try not to think too hard about the teasing.

[danserai]

Okay . . . I will see you later, Mr. Reaper.
