Game Thread - Ganbarimasu! All in a day's work

[Agita]

Umeko-sama gasps for air as the air-obstructing breasts are removed from her face, her face going from blue to violet back to red. Thanks to Shinobu's unorthodox methods, it will likely stay that way for a while. Breathing heavily, but still sleepily rubbing her eyes, she answers, "...ohayou..." As usual, her voice is nearly drowned out by Shinobu. Snifffing the air without another word, she crawls to the dining table on all fours, squats in front of it, and patiently sets her hands on her lap.

Use whatever works for you. Personally, I'm used to using present tense in PbP. Heck, roll randomly to see what tense you're using in any given post if you want to.

An 8 makes a pretty good breakfast. Once ojou-sama has eaten it, you'll both get 1d6 Favor since you worked together.

Shinobu, on the other hand, gets either 1d6 for attending the mistress or 2d6 for achieving a nice atmosphere... though I'm tempted to subtract 1d6 from the latter for suffocation. Convince me.

[Kuroimaken]

"Oh my, Ojou-sama! I honestly hope I didn't wake you from a good dream." Shinobu offered while still squeezing Yuuka against her chest.

She totally didn't mean to. Honest!

I tend to vary between both, but I use past tense more.

[Negative Zero]

"Mphmlfml, mjou-sma.." Mumbled Yuuka weakly from the deathgrip.

As her brain began to starve for air, Yuuka began to wonder why Shinobu was like this. Was she raised in a very, very huggy family? A family that lived in very high altitude, perhaps, where low air supplies were not as unusual..
I'm getting dizzy.

[Agita]

"Um..." Standing up, Umeko-sama toddles towards the affectionate maids and grabs onto one of Shinobu's arms with her hands. "...please let her breathe..." Though her face is hard to read as always, the mistress's voice carries an undertone of worry.

[Kuroimaken]

"Certainly, Ojou-sama." <3 Shinobu replied promptly as she released Yuuka. She pouted slightly once she let go, though, mumbling something along the lines of "I can't be blamed if I have big breasts...".

[Negative Zero]

Yuuka plops into a sitting position, trying to hide how very glad she is for fresh air.

"Ojou-sama, breakfast is ready." She adds after a few deep breaths.

[Agita]

"..." The mistress simply nods and tugs on both maids' sleeves, as if to pull them towards the table.

[Kuroimaken]

Shinobu seems extremely content to follow in her Ojou-sama's footsteps, but not before trying to offer her breakfast on her own.

"Ojou-sama, say 'aaaaah'." <3 She offers while lovingly trying to feed her.

[Negative Zero]

Yuuka accompanied the other two to the table and sat politely, refusing to eat before the mistress had started.

Or until the mistress had been fed, apparently.

[Agita]

Hesitatingly at first, with slightly reddened cheeks, Umeko-samacloses her eyes and opens her mouth to allow Shinobu to feed her. "...Aaah."
Maybe it's just figment of everyone's imagination, but for a short while the background seems to fade into bright pastel colors, and luminescent bubbles fill the air.

Time to get around to giving out favor. Yuuka and Kittana both get 1d6 for the breakfast, Shinobu gets 1d6 for waking the mistress up. I'm not sure if I should give Kittana extra favor for "saving the mistress's life".

Favor Kittana, Shinobu, Yuuka (1d6=3, 1d6=6, 1d6=4)
Kittana now has a total of 7 Favor, Shinobu has 12, and Yuuka has 8.
So far, Shinobu is ahead, but not by an extremely wide margin. That might change if the 'nice atmosphere' here continues.

For now, we'll roleplay out breakfast if you want. Afterwards, you'll need to dress the mistress and get her to school, since it's a monday.

[Kuroimaken]

Shinobu seems to be enjoying her duties a little too much, if that's possible. She continues to feed Umeko-sama in this fashion, and eventually asks, "I'm afraid I couldn't help with making breakfast, but I do hope this makes it more enjoyable, Ojou-sama." <3

[Negative Zero]

Shinobu's methods may be consistently odd and dubiously proper, but.. well, if the mistress enjoyed it, then that was the way it should be.

Yuuka began to eat quietly. The flowery atmosphere was nice, even for the third wheel.

[Agita]

"...It's okay..." Though she looks kind of embarassed, Umeko-sama quietly allows herself to be fed without protesting. After breakfast, you prepare to dress her and accompany her to school, but...

You didn't think it would be this easy, did you? Things going smoothly is boring. Random Event time!

Random Event (1d6=1, 1d6=3)

Suddenly, there is a heavy tremor, and you see a giant, metallic face outside the window! It stares at Umeko for a while, who stares back at it with big eyes... then, a metallic hand of similar sizerises into view outside the window - a giant robot! It tries to reach into the appartement, but the barrier around it activates, and keeps the hand out. What to do?

Anyone may come up with some explanation or background for the robot. Otherwise, I will.

[Negative Zero]

Alright, so I'm looking at my Maid Power, Ultimate Retort. How exactly does this work, now? Direct text is below.

You can blow off an opponent completely by delivering a good retort (GM decides). You can make it impossible to defend against this by taking 2 Stress. (This must be role-played).

I THINK you could basically Iron Heart Surge destroy your opponent by denying his existence or something.

"!!!"

Almost without thinking, Shinobu leaps to the forefront, pulling her gun out from between her breasts!

"Be careful, Ojou-sama!"

[Negative Zero]

"A-A-AHH!" After hesitating in terror for a moment, Yuuka sprints across the room and dives behind her screen. A moment later, she emerges with her trusty chainsaw, a pink bow attached to the handle as always.

Her hand on the pull cord, she stands in front of the mistress protectively.

"Wh-what is that thing doing here?"

[Agita]

The mistress grasps Shinobu's skirt in her hands and hides behind her maids as the robot apparently attempts to reach through the window, peeking at the metallic monstrosity timidly from behind the maid.
After knocking on the electromagnetic barrier a few more times, much in the manner one would knock on a door, the robot instead uses its hand to stroke its chin pensatively. After a pause, a shrill sound pierces the air, like that of a microphone being activated too close to a loudspeaker. Then, the robot rises its hand in a greeting gesture, and a female voice says, "Yo~! We come in peace!"

[Kuroimaken]

"I'm not entirely sure I believe you." Shinobu replies in a VERY stern tone, which is very unlike her usual happy-sounding voice.

"Step down from the mecha and come towards us with your hands up. Slowly. Preferrably naked." She sounded VERY serious. Adjusting a dial on her ray gun, it went from "Stun" to "Explodify", passing "Love Laser", "3rd degree burn", "2nd degree burn", "1st degree burn", "Will you please just let me die" and "Chunky Salsa".

[Negative Zero]

"Yeah! ..um, you don't have to be... nevermind." Yuuka trails off. Explodify is serious business.

Yuuka squeezes the pullcord of the chainsaw tightly, her knuckles white. A chainsaw probably won't even work on a giant robot.

[Agita]

"Um... I don't want to go out naked, onee-san..."

A different, shy voice issues from the mech, followed by the first.

"Hush! No way, we're not coming out so long as you're pointing those things at us! They're scary~! C'mon, we just want to talk a bit, so put the scary weapons and this barrier thing down, 'kay?" Once more, the mech knocks on the barrier around the apartment.
