Omake thread, Ami

[Anastasia]

"Yep," he smiles warmly. "That's it in a nutshell.

He begins to motion, as if to dismiss you, but then pauses. "Oh, and one other thing. I may have one of my servants drop by once in awhile, to both check in on you and begin your pretraining.

In fact, I have just the girl in mind..." Shrugging, "You'll meet her soon enough. Any last questions?"

[Bean Bandit]

Ami shakes her head, smiling a bit nervously, but more grateful than anything. "No, I think I'm fine...Thank you, sir." she replies, not really wanting to rock the boat. Any arrangements that don't include Zoicite are fine with her, at this point.

[Anastasia]

"Then....WAKE UP!"

----

GAH!

Sitting upright in bed with those last words and images echoing in your mind, "Ami-chan," Artemis shakes you, a bit annoyed. "I though you'd never wake up! I was about to go get a bucket of water!"

[Bean Bandit]

"..." Ami stares at Artemis. "...But Zoicite, Michiru...Dead? depressed...Kami-sama?" She takes a moment to touch herself to make sure she's solid...(NOT THERE. God, you're a perv.)

"I'm alive!" She exclaims with no small amount of pleasure, glomping Artemis...was she actually kissing him, too?

Oh well, even if it's only once, this is far less expensive than prozac.

[Anastasia]

It should be noted that for a cat/human/Mau or whatever the fuck Artemis is, he's a fairly adaptable and hardy fellow at the core. Loyal, brave and an all around decent being. That said...

Perhaps him falling over under the force of elated Ami-chan isn't particularly condemnable. Pity.

He does just that, plopping down right on his butt under youre assault. "A-Ami-chan," he manages as you hug, kiss and just generally take advantage of him.

[Bean Bandit]

Ami decides to let him off easy, and breaks the kiss and climbs off of Artemis with a slight smile.

"Good morning." She tells him simply, smiling warmly, then climbs out of his lap and walks to the closet, looking for clothing for the day, resisting the urge to touch her lips and smile. It really is a good morning! I'm alive, and Artemis is...well, wow!

[Anastasia]

"Uh...morning," he finally manages, staring at your backside - by default - as you head into the closet. "Er...have a good dream," he ventures, clearly a bit rattled.

[Bean Bandit]

Ami looks over her shoulder and smiles as she roots around in her closet, finally coming up with her school uniform. "Not particularly." she replies. "And you're really good at that, by the way." she adds breezily, headed to the bathroom to shower.

[Anastasia]

Blushing as Ami races off to the showers, ARtemis just stares. "Woah...

Luna wasn't kidding about those teenage hormones," Artemis notes.

---

Ah, the shower! Stepping in without a care in the world, you prepare to bathe! Turning on the water tap and stepping forward into the stream of hot water cascading down...woah! You find yourself slipping on a bar of soap, half falling to the wall to brace yourself.

No danger, but man...that could have been painful or worse if you'd slipped on that soap in earnest. A broken leg, hip or worse!

[Bean Bandit]

Ami nervously eyes the floor of the tub...and remembering her tip to...heaven? decides it's time for some new habits. Ever so carefully, she climba back out of the shower, and grabs a beach towel, and brings it into the shower with her, draping it across the floor.

"That ought to prevent slipping..." Ami muses. "If I have to start showering with a helmet, I'm going to cry,"

[Anastasia]

It does, even if it bunches badly and is a pain in the ass by the time you finish your shower. Yet you are squeaky clean and quite alive, which is a step up from your past performance this morning.

Hungry, too, and you notice that the clock you passes said it was nearly 10.

[Bean Bandit]

Ami winces. "Well, I'm late enough that I can enjoy breakfast, at least." Ami muses with a sigh. "I hope mother's not too upset."

So saying she heads to the kitchen, deciding to have a balanced breakfast, and worry about how she's going to explain this later.

[Anastasia]

Your mother is already gone, it seems, so you have a nice breakfast with out her. Tramp.

As you put away a surprising amount of food(Guess Death makes you hungry), Artemis finally comes to join you. Notably, he's in cat form this time and mostly calmed down from your morning glory. "Morning, Ami-chan," he says cheerfully enough, if still a bit cautious.

[Bean Bandit]

"Morning." Ami replies warmly, a little less frenetic now, and satsified. (Her stomach, at least.) "You don't have to tiptoe, Artemis." she smiles. "I won't bite."

Hesitating a beat, with a thoughtful, deadpan expression (If the pun can be pardoned) "Unless you ask, but I'm not sure that's likely..." This...is not proper. It's liberating, though.

[Anastasia]

"Ack!" Flinching back like you are the devil in the incarnation of a self touching pro teenager, Artemis sweatdrops. Literally, which is pretty impressive for a cat.

"Um....I'll pass," Artemis finally says. "Ami, um, is something the matter?  Do you feel ill at all?"
