you've been hit by a smooth criminal

Who: Rin Okumura and Death the Kid
When: March 17th
Where: An underground crypt
What: What time is it? RIDICULOUS QUEST TIME!
Style: Action!
Status: Closed

[There were a lot of things Rin Okumura had never expected to happen in his life. Being the half demon spawn of Satan, having his father die, training to be an exorcist, coming to an underwater city, getting a girlfriend while in said underwater city, seeing both his dead father and his dead mother in said underwater city...

These were unexpected, surely, but nothing he couldn't deal with eventually.

But this.

This was something he wasn't entirely sure he could handle.

The board had said nothing about what the quest actually entailed, just that a certain cleric wanted to "give the Head Nurse what was coming to her", so naturally Kid and Rin figured why the hell not and went right on searching for the odd woman who for some reason was very reluctant to come out of a shadow alley way.

It wasn't until they had already agreed that the details of the quest were laid down on them.]


This is stupid...

[It was, more or less, a glorified panty raid.

Yes. The son of Satan and the son of Lord Death were tasked with gathering the unmentionables of the Head Nurse. Who... for some reason, lived in a crypt. Which was where the two teens were currently standing in their assigned garb, staring down at the entrance to the crypt with equal uncomfortable looks of distaste and wariness.

Rin looked at his companion, paled as if his task was something closer to assassination rather than the (mostly) harmless act of taking some one's clothing.]


S-seriously, this is stupid. Let's just... go back and tell her there's no way we're doin' it. We can find another quest, right?

[He didn't sound nearly as confident about that as he wanted to.]

[No, Kid is not gawking at Rin because GOSH HE THOUGHT WE WERE BROS HOW COULD YOU.

He's gawking at the sheer volume, which echoes through the chamber with a force that causes a low level rumble among the old stones.

There's a tick-tick-tick-CLINK.

Axes drop down from the ceiling in several points along the way to the distant dim light, and Kid loses his balance, as his foot drops down a trap door that had just opened at his back. Some desperate grabbing at Rin spares them both a trip into the abyss.

Going very still, fingers white where they're clutching at Rin's shirt, Kid aims his golden glare at him.]


...Lovely job setting off every trap in the room, you nitwit!

[Well.

Here they are, clutching at each other like the last bit of floating flotsam in a sea squall, with faces near enough to send even the most jaded fangirl off to whisper I ship it into the wind.

And Kid can only think about how Rin really could have stood to comb his hair before they left on this mission.]


I'm fine. Fortunately, we can now see where we should avoid stepping. Good work, Rin, now we can proceed.

[He lets go, straightening out his own coat, to the massive disappointment of imaginary fangirls everywhere.]

[Yes, he's horrible. Just terrible. And will likely fill his fanservice quota later in some other way, but for now...

Panty raid.

...As if that wasn't fanservice enough.]


Carefully. There's no telling what other traps might still be active here.

[You guys should have brought a rogue. Or at least a cleric!!]
