Nine To Go - [Voice]

[avaricious]

[Well, someone is getting married. Here, of all places! Ling thinks it's a bit reckless, but there's no harm in a little fun. So he devises a filter and doesn't even bother disguising his voice.]

[Filtered To Males Only]

Hello! My name is Ling Yao. I'm sure most of you heard about the recent wedding about to happen. I've been thinking about marriage myself. After all, I do have to eventually pick out fifty wives when I return home. But it wouldn't hurt to find someone here as well. I could be here for a very long time and Luceti does happen to have an exceptionally stunning population of women. So, what do you say that some of you suggest your top five most beautiful women for consideration. Feel free to elaborate on what makes them an excellent candidate for marriage.

And please, let's not get into the matters of Xingese politics. It's really just the way things are, so I'd rather not talk about it much.

[It would ruin the fun!]

(ooc: Please, please, please go all out with the thread jacking! I'm not even kidding. I want to see shit hijacked all over the place up in here. Hell, Ling himself might not even reply to some of these threads unless they interest him personally. Go wild, please! It'll be fun, honest.)

Boy's clothes? All I've seen Chizuru in was that white dress. Gotta say, she was pretty hot.

[nikori]

Ohhh yeah! She looked really cute in that, too! ..erm.. [...face going red a bit here since well that was more than he was used to seeing of her --]

But yeah, she usually wears boys' clothing, so...

[cannoneer]

Too bad. It was a good look for her.

[nikori]

Yeah, guess so! I'd say maybe we could see her wearin' it again someday, but I doubt she'd be okay with that. Hijikata-san would probably throw a fit, too.

[cannoneer]

Lemme guess, he's the angry one, right?

[nikori]

[...AHAHA yeah that deserves quite a large bark of laughter from Heisuke.] Hahahaha! Yeah, that's Hijikata-san all right! He's always pretty grumpy, and it doesn't help that he's suddenly more protective over Chizuru.

[cannoneer]

Lemme guess, jealous boyfriend?

[nikori]

Somethin' like that! Or at least, he's been making it seem that way, haha! [Regardless, it's hilarious.]

[cannoneer]

... so, that mean she's not seeing anyone?

1/2

[nikori]

...Huh? Uh... No, guess not. Why do you ask? --

[nikori]

[...

...!!!]

Wait... Oi, oi! Just 'cause Chizuru's not with anyone doesn't mean some random guy can take her, okay?! I won't let that happen! [FORBIDDEN.]

[zumo]

[He was going to reply specifically to Cyborg's self-introduction, but:]

Nothing of the sort. Don't listen to a word this idiot says.

[cannoneer]

Right, gotcha. Good to know.

[zumo]

[....Wait, what?

No no no. Oh hell no. So many fucking alarm bells going off right now...

Time to meet mama bear, Cyborg.]

Who the hell are you, and how do you know Chizuru?! [AND WHY ARE YOU CALLING HER HOT. NO.

Dammit he knew she shouldn't have waited so long before changing out of that dress...]

[cannoneer]

Relax, man. I just helped her get to town, that's all.

[zumo]

That only answers half my question.

[Relax? That's like asking him to stop breathing.]

[cannoneer]

The name's Cyborg. I'm still new around here, so unless you're from Jump City, you probably ain't heard of me.

[gohon]

Yeah, actually. You were pretty lucky. She might be in boy clothes next time you see her, so remember it well.

[cannoneer]

Too bad. But I'll keep that in mind.

[gohon]

Who are you, anyway? I don't think we've met.

[cannoneer]

I'm Cyborg. I'm still new around here.

[gohon]

Oh, okay. Good to know. [ Are you a demon? Are you a kidnapping demon? Are you a kidnapping demon that wants to make many many children with Chizuru?

He's not going to ask, but he'll be keeping an eye on Cyborg. Just to be safe. ]

Souji Okita. It's a pleasure.

[cannoneer]

Sure. Nice to meet you too. So which one of you guys are actually dating this girl?

[Cuz damn does she have a lot of protective dudes crowding in on him.]

[gohon]

None of us, if you wanna believe what Hijikata-san says. [ Though his behavior is suspicious. So he doesn't. ] We have an obligation to protect her.

[cannoneer]

So you're like her bodyguards. Guess she must be pretty important, then.
