[CANISTERSHOT] Mr. Johnson, you're going to need more lemons!
« on: November 02, 2012, 10:54:10 am »

  Four weeks.

  It took you four weeks to find it.

  But here you are.


  Honestly, you knew you shouldn't have brought Porky along with you. Everyone told you not to. Drizzt told you. Ender told you. Cadel told you... He's famous for it. No-one else in fiction has his sense of direction.

  But he demanded, and you will admit he's got power in his charm. It's a hellova lot easier to convince a girl to get back to the group with a cute little pig along.

  If it matters, you aren't Ranma. Let's make that abundantly clear. That little shit wouldn't be let anywhere near the Grimm Order. With his temper?... Well, he'd fit right in, to be honest. But the Anime side of the Cistern already has enough structural damage, it doesn't need any more, and that's sure to-

  Oh, whatever. There's your target. Shortish, as is usual with Animes. Luckily this one shouldn't add to the damage in the A wing, but you never know with these types.

  Her hair is cut shoulder length, her clothes are oddly conservative for this genre (though you figure'd it would be this way. Slice of lifes usually have less fanservicy-ones), and she's wearing a rediculous straw hat. The new college student seems to be enjoying time with friends. Good for -fucking- her. YOU have Porky.

  "Hey, that's her!" he oinks, about five minutes to late. It comes through in the odd accent that the translator ring gives it. If you try, you can pick out the base language behind it, but the ring works on making you understand and be understood, not on changing what people say. "We need to go get her! HEY! HEY OSAKA! HEY! HEY LISTEN!"

  "Oh will you shut up." You shove Porky further into your backpack to muffle his excited squeals. "Dammit, Porky, we need to approach her quietly and not at all weird like a fucking talking pig and his magical courier."

  "It's Ryoga!" Porky protests.

  "Doesn't matter anyways, here they come. Quick, glasses me." Porky tosses a pair of sunglasses from your pack, which twirl through the air and directly into your hand, where they make a sharp click and bounce onto the ground. Dammit.

  You pick up your sunglasses and put them on but the effect is ruined. Porky noticed, the translator ring kindly making sure you know that squealing was laughter. You have sudden urge for ham.

  Osaka seems to have noticed you. Unfortunately, so have her friends. You're wearing sunglasses and a nice suit though, so it shouldn't take much to convince her to go off alone so long as a miniature pig doesn't poke his black head out ofyour backpack.

  "Hi!" The ring translates for you from the original Japanese.

  And then a miniature pig pokes his black head out of your backpack.

  Congratulations sir, it's a bouncing little debacle. You think you better fix this fast!

((Close. Absurdly OP fictional characters given even more ludicrously OP powers and let run free. Of course it's not a surprise when one turns bad... but who?))

((So basically we need to find the Mary Sue gone bad and then somehow kill it.

Which will involve blowing up the universe. Thrice. And then applying Exterminatus heavily, before setting fire to the remains.))

((You aren't thinking big enough.

Also Osaka is getting very odd looks for talking to the strange man muttering to himself. Submit a command.))

"Hello, may I speak to you for a second? I'm from a public survey being undertaken about this area."
Lie and attempt to get the target to go off alone to be disposed of if needed.

Ahem!

"Hello, ma'am. May I speak to you for a second? I'm from a public- OW!" Porky bit you in the ear. Stop deviating from the script!

"A public ow? Oh mah, that sounds serious!" Osaka waves her friends away. "You guys go ahead, Ah'll be right back."

She stares blankly without you realizing as you try to strangle the little pigshit. This continues for a few minutes until Ryoga leaps away and vanishes into the crowd. Damn.

"Well you can find your own way back... IN A MONTH!" You scream after him in a most undignified manner. There's a short squeal that doesn't translate as a response.

"You ain't no public service man." You freeze. Damn that script. "So what are ya?" She leans around you stiffer than a board.

"I'm... I'm..." You scramble for a temporary alibi you can explain away later. Suddenly you got it.

You flip a pair of sunglasses out of your pocket, turn to her and pull out your wallet, flashing an ID. "I'm with a foundation. We screened your profile and you came out as an exceptional... worker."

"Which foundation?" Osaka asks dully.

"The SCP Foundation. We secure. We contain. We protect. The name is-"

Smith. Agent Smith. And yes, 'Agent' is your first name.

((Also, he ignored not only Drizzit's but Ender's advice?! Bad idea.))

"-Smith. Agent Smith."

Osaka stares up at you with huge eyes, shimmering dully in the sunlight. A soft breeze blows, her hair twisting in the wind. There's a burst of Sakura Blossoms swirling in between you, and the sounds of the crowd die down in the distance. "You mean, like in the movie?" She asks.

"Yes."

She looks at you shyly, obviously still a schoolgirl, you feel a compulsion to reach down and sweep her up off her feet, and you reach down-

Porky uses the back of your head as a springboard into Osaka's less-than-ample bosom where he snuggles in and gives you a sassy look. You're filled with rage, to the brim, seeing red.

"Ah, is this your piggy? Ah love pigs!" She gives the little monster a tight hug.

That was your hug that butthole. That was your hug!

You snatch Porky out from Osaka's arms and start telling him off. "What the hell are you doing here? I thought you went back to the Cistern can't you see we were having a moment why do you have to be like this what would Akane say if she could see this you little hug stealing shit I will make you into bacon and feed you to a dog and then have-" The pig smacks you across the face. "Ooh, now you've done it."

You toss him in the air and pull a cricket bat out from hammerspace. THWACK! The pig goes sailing! But lo, he rebounds off the roof of a nearby building and slams into your face. You fall over backward, into a fountain of cool, clean water. You splash about for a bit before someone drags you out.

It's Osaka. Explain yourself, Agent Smith.
