[blackstarwitch]

Heh, I like your style mun! Good choice picking me, after all, I'm the best around!

Of course, it doesn't mean anything if you're not able to show me for as great and awesome as I am, ze.

_{[She gives a jaunty wink.]}

So, you gonna put me in a game or what, ze? I wouldn't be surprised if things went missing in the meantime... Idle hands, right?

Your hands hardly need to be idle to be devil's playthings.

Hopefully wherever you end up sees fit to equip you with a warning label. "Caution: Insufferable Rat, Will Steal Everything You Own"

[blackstarwitch]

Oh come now, don't make such a glum face! You know you're happy to see me!

Besides, I didn't steal everything...

...Although, come to think of it, you still have a few grimoires I'd love to borrow.

[wizardoftheweek]

Any happiness I may have is immediately washed away when you say things like that.

[blackstarwitch]

_{[She gives the anemic magician a hearty slap on the back.]}

Come on, us magic users have to stick together! Besides, if you keep making that face, it'll stick that way!

[littlest_devil]

[Koa is over here just completely misinterpreting that first part, and not looking too amused by it because of the implication of playing with Marisa.]

Why would I want to play with her hands, anyway? I have enough fun just reading in my spare time.

[blackstarwitch]

Oh hey, where'd you come from? It's rare to see you out of the library little one!

You don't have to play with my hands if you don't want to, but I do know a few tricks if you're interested...

[littlest_devil]

[Making an assumption as to what she means by tricks, there are more than a few alarms going off in the little devil's head now; many of their interactions had a tendency to end with a Master Spark to the face, particularly whenever she tried to stop Marisa from stealing borrowing books.]

U-um, maybe another time!

[wizardoftheweek]

... Koakuma, don't you have work you should be doing?

[littlest_devil]

Yes, but what if something happened to you out here?

I'll go back once you're done here, and I'll work twice as fast to make up for lost time, three times if I really have to. [Which means she'll probably wind up tripping over herself one or two more times than normal.

Seriously though, making sure you'll be fine here has more priority than making sure the more-childish of the fairy maids didn't decide to come in and build a castle with an entire row's worth of books again.]

[emoted]

[ She doesn't even know who you are, but she likes you already. ]

Ohooo, what can you do? What's with that hat, are you a witch?

[blackstarwitch]

_{[She tugs her hat down, throwing her arm out in a "cool" pose.]}

Yup, that's me! Marisa Kirisame, Ordinary Witch, at your service! Master of Danmaku and part time thief, when the mood strikes me, ze!

So what's your deal?

[emoted]

Ooh, ooh, do you fly on a broomstick too? Ibuki hasn't ever met a real witch before!

[ She blinks for a moment, before returning to her previous odd demeanor. ]

Ibuki is Ibuki!

[blackstarwitch]

Ibuki?

_{[Like that oni? Nah, probably not. She doesn't look nearly smashed enough.]}

Of course I fly on a broomstick! I don't see how you can be a proper witch and not!

[shanghaiworld]

Idle hands, sure.

As if any part of you is ever idle. You're far too energetic for that, aren't you? Or as you put it, too great and awesome.

[blackstarwitch]

Alice!

_{[She smiles, giving a friendly wave at the dollmaker.]}

Of course I'm energetic! Gotta keep moving or I'll be bored to death. Peacetime is so miserable, ze! I'm always waiting for the next great event! I just don't want this mun to slow me down, ya know?

[shanghaiworld]

Well, if you get bored to death, we can get our stuff back finally. But anyway, what sort of great event are expecting around here?

[blackstarwitch]

I don't know! Something exciting. There are so many people here, there's gotta be some kinda commotion, right?

Speaking of, do you have any new books or dolls? I haven't visited in a while, so I don't know what you're up to.

[canbemine]

You do realize that if you confess to a crime beforehand, it makes it harder to pull off, don't you?

[blackstarwitch]

Whoa whoa whoa, who are you? You look all...

_{[She taps her foot, thinking.]}

Shady. Shadier than me. Shadier than Rumia even. You some kinda youkai?

-And hey, what's with telling me how to do my job, ze?! If I tell 'em beforehand, they let their guards down! 'Sides, I can't just go lying about it, then people'd ask all sortsa weird questions!

[canbemine]

That's... one way to describe me. As for who I am... [Well, he's got an underworld reputation, as it is. Even if she seems on the slow side for a thief, it can't hurt too badly.] You can call me Garrett, if you have to.

I'm telling you how to do your job because frankly, it sounds like I know how to do it a lot better than you do.

[Not that he's saying he's a thief himself. But still, so modest.]

[blackstarwitch]

Garret? Never heard of ya.

_{[She gives a blasé shrug.]}

Well, I guess you kinda look like a thief. If I squint. But I still only have your word for it, and to me, you look like some kinda scruffy cousin of one of those lower-class youkai. How do I know you ain't bluffin'?

If you get into Animus, Meiling is going to have a cow you realize this right?

[colorfulbrilliance]

Someone else has picked you up as well? Good luck with any game you are being sent to. Maybe it won't be as bad as some I have seen.

[Nope, She has no idea.]

Oh...? Whyso?

[blackstarwitch]

Heh! Seems I've even attracted a gatekeeper!

The mun said I'd be going somewhere cool, so I gotta take her word for it. I hope I end up in somewhere cool, but she says she's only applied at one, so I gotta hope I get in, ze! I don't want to stick here forever, after all!

Marisa has a gravestone in the tower. She's been guarding it

[colorfulbrilliance]

[Since Remilia left, she's been worried about more arriving at the tower. SO Mun won't let her see the apps page.]

I can only hope. Where I am at we are collared and told home is gone.

....And then torment and torture us.

Oh sheesh, no idea how that's gonna work out...

[blackstarwitch]

Eh? Torture?

Well I'm sure you can take it. You're strong, right? After all, you're the gatekeeper! You probably have to deal with all kinds of nutsos in your line of work, ze.

...Where are you at, anyway? I can't believe a mun would be so cruel as to send someone to a place where they'd be tortured.
