[Private to Noriko]

[remarkablerain]

Hey, I want to talk to you about something.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[thefifthmonarch]

'sup?

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[remarkablerain]

What do you know about Mikata, Niyo?

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[thefifthmonarch]

She's an Amazon who butchered a sizable number of her clansmen due to the influence of an evil sword given to her in a deal with Dark Ruler Ha Des who seduced her.

After which she spent many years as a hermit who raised dragons. Said population of dragons, at last report, were butchered by Brron because he found it exceedingly funny.

She came with Brron to Earth due to her fighting prowess and dragon taming, but mostly because he held the dragons hostage until he had them slaughtered.

Why?

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[remarkablerain]

Well uh.

She seems to be having a mental breakdown since you did something to her a few years ago.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

... Vaguely remembering but nothing comes terribly to mind.

I remember she was with Isabel, but then Isabel decided to be a hate hipster to a lot of people. But let's not discuss that.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[remarkablerain]

Yeah let's not.

But uh. She claims you apparently changed her entire life-- programmed her into a different one entirely. She feels like it's all fake, and was gonna leave cause of it and demand you to fix this "half-assed job" you apparently did. Which to me didn't seem really half-assed since I couldn't even tell something was weird until she went on about it.

But when I tried to ask her what her life was like before, uh. She went on about Brron and bashed at her door. To me it kinda sounds like her life wasn't exactly all sparkles or anything to have missed.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[thefifthmonarch]

Brron was pretty much the Joker.

... Half-assed job?

Okay, she sounds like she's loaded on crazy.

Re: [Private to Noriko]

[remarkablerain]

Well, can you at least say if that claim's true?

*Souha comes up behind Noriko and hugs her, clinging a bit.*

::Makes a squeeze toy sound. She then gives off a light giggle.:: And what's this for~?

Re: [Event 1]

[keepersouha]

Nm. No special reason. *clings a bit harder.*

Just... feel like I need to do this.

Re: [Event 1]

[thefifthmonarch]

Mmm~ Why the sudden super affectionate behavior. ::Twists around purring.::

Re: [Event 1]

[keepersouha]

*tries to stay cling to your back, snuggling in*

No reason...~ Just got a bit... Scared for a bit.

Re: [Event 1]

[thefifthmonarch]

... Scared by what?

Re: [Event 1]

[keepersouha]

A woman who shouldn't scare me.

... Explain. ::You feel soft tentacles rubbing over you, to relax you.::

[foreverchilled]

::Well, Rachana is one of the few places this girl goes, so let's have her find Noriko. And probably just watch her for a bit.::

[thefifthmonarch]

::It's a teenage girl kicking the can. Clearly she has to be one of Erland's slaves.::

[foreverchilled]

::Theresa knows Noriko, though. ...at least, she thinks this is Noriko. Last she saw Noriko looked in her thirties. Then again, Noriko also showed her that she could change, if I remember right, so...::

...Noriko...? ...is something wrong...?

[thefifthmonarch]

Infinite All Consuming Petty Loan Sharks with Fake Tits.

::She looks like she needs a table to flip.::

[foreverchilled]

::Theresa just kind of stares in shock. The idea of Noriko getting in with Loan Sharks is beyond her ability to grasp.::

...how... how'd it happen...?

[thefifthmonarch]

Evil Skeletons took over the Banks I use!

::Kicks the can harder.::

[foreverchilled]

...I think... think you lost me... Noriko...

::Theresa vaguely remembers Wight from ages ago, but surely no one would be stupid enough to...::

[thefifthmonarch]

Skull Servants took over the banks I use elsewhere for money. They decided to consider much of my money illegal or confiscated. And then worked with Onee.
