I want ice-cream!; [OPEN]

There's evil in your heart .. and it wants out to play.
Cho followed along with Fuu and Quinn very quietly, her tail swishing side to side. They had just entered the Otaku Kingdom and being the Neko she was, she caught a lot of attention from the regulars of the place. Quinn and Fuu had invited her to come along with them as they ventured Hyakuji, walking around basically everywhere. They had just come back from Majikku Mall after shopping around and basically making idiots of themselves in public.

They had already spent a lot and Quinn only had a few quid left to buy some shoujo manga down at the Otaku Kingdom. And that is where they are now. Cho spent most of her time following after them quietly, watching the two and responding with either a shake of her head or a silent nod whenever she was asked anything. All the snacks she was carrying in her small carrybag was starting to diminish and all she had left was a piece of gum.

She chewed it thoughtfully and looked at Quinn as she talked. "Hey, this place is pretty neat, huh? Wouldn't it be cool if I could work here? Do you think they're hiring? Oh yeah, Fuu-chan works at the Willicot Detective Agency.. Is it fun there? Do you investigate crime scenes like a hardcore detective?! That's pretty cool.." she rambled, looking at Fuu with a sparkle in her eyes. Cho looked on, blowing a bubble before it popped in her face.

"Ah yeah, Cho, you have a job too right?" Cho looked up and paused before nodding. "Ehh .. I'm so jealous! You work at the arcade .. hmm, I want a job too! Maybe I should get a job here.." They entered a manga store and Quinn rattled on as she bought her things and they left. While they chatted happily, Cho disposed of her gum and walked a bit faster, trying to catch up with them. After awhile, she stopped. Noticing that the Neko was no longer walking alongside them, Quinn looked back at her cousin and asked, "What's wrong?"

Cho's ears twitched and she cried almost pitifully, "I want ice-cream." The cardcaptor blinked twice and rummaged through her pockets but to no avail. "Ahhh .. I don't have any money left.. Fuu-chan, do you have any money we can borrow?" she asked, looking a bit concerned.

Fuu didn't reply immediately, facing her head forward and gazing into the mid-distance before answering in a dramatic sounding way, "That information is classified." and then burst into a fit of laughter which no one really understood why.

Of course, the girl didn't know sweet FA about anything that actually went on in the WDA.... on account of she hadn't even bothered to show up for quote unquote, WORK.

Her ears perked up almost as high as Cho's to the mention of the word ice-cream.
"Ahhh .. I don't have any money left.. Fuu-chan, do you have any money we can borrow?" She said, sounding as though she wouldn't have liked to have to ask such a poor little villiage girl for money. After a moment of trying to recall what happened to her cash, Fuu turned to Cardcaptor Quinn and answered promptly,
"I spent it all on underwear, ya dig?" She idly picked up a novel from the shoujo section they were standing in, eying the cover with raised brows and trying to make her own eyes open up that wide. "Hey now... Weren't you eating something just a moment ago?"

At the mention of ice cream a certain someone would make his appearance, entering the store with the aforementioned treat in hand. The man looked rather normal, clad in a white coat and a blue muffler, and the only thing that would strike him as odd was the headset he was wearing. Regardless, he was eating a pint of Häagen-Dazs strawberry ice cream...which for whatever reason just seemed to -work- for this guy.

"WELCOME BACKZ BOSH!"

The man was apparently the person who ran this store, though who had greeted him was a strange, disembodied head with pink tentacle hair, akin to an octopus. Said creature had leapt from the top of the shelves and onto the man's head, wrapping her slimy appendages around it rather tightly.

"H-hey! Watch it! You're messing up my hair! It's hard actually getting it like Kaito's given how unruly it is!"

"Ah, so we don't have any money.." Fuu sure spends her money on some strange things .. she thought. "Aww, now I feel like eating ice-cream too," said Quinn in a disappointed tone. All of a sudden, she was made aware of the crowd forming around them. It wasn't noticeable because they weren't very close but she was sure.. The brunette looked up as Cho's ears twitched and her tail moved almost hypnotically. "Ah ..!"

Quinn broke out into a smile as she put an arm around both Fuu and Cho. "I have an idea.." she murmured slyly, grinning widely. Her expression soon faded though, as she began to think. "Oh wait, where am I going to get that from ..?" She looked up as the staff greeted their boss as he walked in. "H-Häagen-Dazs! Strawberry flavoured..!!" Cho swiflty slinked over to the male, sniffing as she stared at the frozen dairy treat. "I want some~" she cooed, rubbing against him as her tail swished around more violently.

"A-AH! Wait! Ch-Ch-Cho!!" Quinn quickly came over and grabbed her, handing the Neko over to Fuu to hold back before she started doing something worse.. "Aha ..Sorry about that! Erm, well.." She looked back at Fuu a bit hesitantly before turning her attention back to Kouta. "Can we work here for today?! We just want some money to buy some ice-cream .. or you could even pay us in ice-cream! If you want! We're pretty good with customer service! I mean, Cho is attracting some customers here for you just by dropping by!"

Jen followed behind Fuu and Quinn - the former of whom she'd known since her very first days in Hyakuji High and the latter was someone she'd become acquainted with during the treasure hunt. Following next to Fuu and Quinn was Cho - a bona fide cat girl as far as Jen could tell. With the way the girl's ears twitched and how her tail swished, Jen was certain they weren't props by any stretch of the imagination. The four girls arrived at the Otaku Kingdom, and what started out as a trip to buy Shoujo manga became overshadowed by Cho's craving for ice-cream.

Unfortunately, neither Quinn, Fuu nor Jen had the money to purchase that expensive Häagen-Dazs ice-cream. And while Jen had been unwilling to disclose how she ended up burning a hole in her wallet, Fuu told the entire story for her of how the two of them 'spent' it all on socks and underwear due to an unfortunate incident involving an accident with a runaway bike with their sempai, a jerkass of a shopkeep, and compensating the damages.

"So, what do you think, Fuu-chan?" Jen turned to her friend to ask for the village girl's opinion on Quinn's suggestion that they work for a day to get paid in ice-cream.

"I think that's weird, ya." She answered Jen in a dull sort of way, watching the store manager with glassy eyes while still locking her elbows around Cho's underarms. "...Should we pry that sucker off'a his face? I mean... it looks like he sorta likes it so I don't even know."
As she said this, Fuu held her hands up by her shoulders in a defeated way, letting Cho out of her tight grasp. The fan boys drew nearer trying to get a closer look at the real live nekojin and Fuu was quick to realize the attention was all for the cat show.
"You can look all you want, it's free~ Eheh!" Shamelessly cupping Cho's breasts before her hands moved right onto her rump. "But anything down here and you's are gon' require a credit card, sugar."

From the looks of it, Fuu didn't seem to mind working hard. Nothing had ever really stopped the team from going all out for something as ridiculous as getting ice-cream before. Why just last weekend they purchased nearly a whole kiosk of knickers and tights. That was where she bought the polka dotted tights she was wearing under her mini skirt actually. With her hands still on Cho's butt, Fuu turned around and looked at Jen and Quinn.
"....did you say customer service or fan service?"

"Can I has ice creamz too?" the overly cheerful and energetic octopus...thing asked the victim of face tentacle rape. Of course, since Kouta couldn't really answer her, the creature merely hopped off the top of his head and chose to perch herself on his left shoulder. That done, she turned to the group of girls who had began to address her boss, while raising a tentacle in a saluting manner. "Welcomez to the Otaku Kingdom!" she would greet, rather late one could add but she didn't seem to care...

Of course, she seemed rather oblivious of the strange atmosphere the store had now gotten.

Because due to how close Cho was to Kouta, the male seemed to freeze...but not because he was embarrassed at having a catgirl so close to him. He looked as if he was scared for some reason...doubly confirmed when he turned and looked over his other shoulder, as if expecting someone to jump out and attack him. Of course, when there was nothing there he just sighed in relief before he faced the group of teenagers properly.

"I don't really get it but if you need just a quick paycheck for ice cream I can probably arrange that....how do any of you feel about cosplay?"

Cho was in her own little world of bliss. She was daydreaming. Daydreaming of a future with ice-cream in her hands. No, she wouldn't settle for just ice-cream! Häagen-Dazs! Strawberry flavoured Häagen-Dazs! Yes .. that was a perfect world. Cho dribbled a little, lost in her ecstasy. She let out an involuntary "Nyaa~" when Fuu fondled her, prompting a sigh of awe from the avid watchers.

Quinn looked back at them in shock, rooted to the spot. . . . WHAT THE HELL!! Her head turned back to Kouta stiffly and put on a smile. It twitched, out of place with the rest of her angry expression. Thankfully, he paid the embarrassing bunch behind her no mind.

"I don't really get it but if you need just a quick paycheck for ice cream I can probably arrange that....how do any of you feel about cosplay?"


"C-COSPLAY?! It's .. It's always been my dream to get paid for wearing cosplay," mumbled Quinn with eyes full of awe and excitement. She took one of Jen's hands in between both of hers as she whispered,"COSPLAY!" and did the same to Fuu and to Cho. "Cosplay?" repeated Cho in an uninterested tone before lighting up a bit with curiousity, "Does it taste good?"

"Cosplay? Nu-uh, nooooo way. Not happenin'." Fuu uttered, backing up and away from Cho's tail. "You're out of your cotton pickin' mind if ya think I'll dress up. It'll end up on the internet with some pissed off blogger raggin' on about how I'm doing it wrong again." By now she was shaking her head and walking backwards, almost right out of the store. Her friends could work hard for their ice-cream, Fuu didn't want none of it anymore, now that cosplaying was involved. It was unusual how one bad experience was all it took for her to have such a strong reaction about it.
"I will never be as pretty or as talented as the character I am dressed up as." But as Fuu was about to walk out of the store, she looked at her friends, particularly Quinn who had been so thrilled by the idea of cosplaying. Of course she would be thrilled. With a body like that, she would have no problem squeezing into a one-size-fits-all costume made in Japan. Of the four girls standing there today, Fuu was the largest, and she certainly felt exposed in that way. But in the end, she couldn't just leave her friends like this. She was torn.

The villager tucked a strand of hair behind the red flower on her ear with a grimace, facing the store owner.
"But... What did you have in mind?"

"Come on, Fuu-chan - it's just for the fun of it! Who cares if you can't act like the characters you're dressing up as?" Jen added as she placed her arms around Fuu's shoulders, chuckling. It appears that Quinn was very enthusiastic about cosplaying, Jen herself was no stranger to cosplay, and while Cho didn't seem thrilled by the idea it appeared that the cat girl could be talked into it, especially if it would help her get her Häagen-Dazs strawberry ice-cream.

"But... What did you have in mind?" The village girl with blond-dyed hair asked.

"Fuu-chan's got a good question there," Jen quipped, resting a hand thoughtfully on her chin as she looked at the cosplaying staff member. "I mean, do we get to choose who to cosplay as, or will you decide which costumes we will wear?" The purple-haired girl asked, hoping for the former, in case the staff member turned out to be the pervy sort and made the whole lot of them cosplay in ecchi outfits.

"If you don't want to that's fine, but there is never a need to perfectly look like the character or be as pretty as it." Kouta began explaining, it seemed he was a little annoyed at rejecting in that manner given that this was his main hobby. "The main point is to have fun in a way that brings the character your depicting to life...!" his speech began to delve into the rather passionate angel, so much that one could almost see the fire of his heart...!

That is until the octopus merely tapped him a bit to snapped out of it.

"Oh right uh...you can choose really. It's better if you pick something you like rather than let a stranger like me put you in strange outfits." he explained properly with an embarrassed chuckle. And with that he gestured for them to follow him as he led the quartet of females towards the locker rooms/costume storage...

"AAAAAAAAAAALRIGHT!" cried Quinn enthusiastically as she pushed past Kouta, dragging along her bewildered friends into the costume storage as if she knew where everything was. "Waaah.." She looked on in awe as her eyes widened in surprise to the vast amount of costumes around them. "You must have every cosplay outfit in history here or something!"

Cho squinted her eyes, standing there with a disappointed pout in place. "What? Just clothes?"

"JUST CLOTHES?!" Quinn thrusted her finger out, pointing at Cho accusingly. Cho flinched in surprise, and kept her eyes on her cousin's finger. "Cosplay isn't just .. CLOTHES! Cosplay is an art, it requires skill and finesse. Looking like the character isn't enough. You've got to act like the character .. you've got to BE the character! Understand?"

Quinn puffed out her cheeks as Cho blinked in response. "Fine! I'll just have to show you!" She sighed exasperatedly as she scurried off to find a costume.

While in the storage, Fuu slid through coat hanger after coat hanger, not really knowing who's character any of the costumes belonged to. But still she was enjoying the feast for her eyes just the same as the other girls. The quality of the clothing appeared better than most of the stuff they had for sale at the mall. Fuu could imagine the price tag on this dress she was holding up being triple times as dearer. Throwing a glance over her shoulders to Jen who was still holding her like that, Fuu ask her,
"Do you think I would be a good...." Glancing at the tag "...Heartcatch?"

Excusing herself from her galpals, she disappeared behind the change room later emerging as....

cure blossom!


She appeared to be the first one ready, and walked back out to the store front to see the manager, but she ended up bashfully smiling at some customers who had entered the store.
"D-Do you think they'll recognize..." She asked him, fiddling with her flowered cuff. "...who I'm supposed to be?"

"Well, that sounds about right," Jen nodded sagaciously as Kouta explained that they get to choose their outfits. Complete freedom of choice where cosplay outfits are concerned? A smile crossed the purple-haired girl's face as she knew that it meant she and the other girls won't be starved for options. Giggling at Quinn's remark about cosplaying, Jen followed the rest of them as Kouta led them to the storage area where the Otaku Kingdom keep their stock of cosplay outfits. "Whoa..." Jen gasped, squinting under an almost blinding radiance that only her mind could perceive; it was like being led to the Holy Grail, something that wasn't for human eyes to behold.

While Quinn and Cho searched for outfits, an outfit already caught Jen's eye as the purple-haired girl caught sight of a school uniform on a rack next to her, which she clearly recognized where it came from. However, Jen felt that simply cosplaying as said character would be a tad... plain. It could certainly use some accessorizing. Grabbing the uniform and a set of kitsune ears and tail, Jen disappeared into one of the changing rooms, emerging moments later in her costume.

Fujibayashi Kyou


"Nice outfit, Fuu-chan!" Jen smiled and gave the Cure Blossom cosplayer Fuu a wink as she stepped out of the locker room and to the store front to join the village girl.

"Well, you have the meekness and unsureness right but..." Kouta mused numbering off traits he knew Cure Blossom had on occasion, crossing his arms as he looked over the first person to step out of the locker room, immediately shifting into his rather serious business mode. A character from a more recent show, which was a good idea if the goal was being recognizable. Plus it was vibrant in terms of aesthetics which added in terms of how good of a sense Fuu had for choosing.

"But what about the rest of her quirks?" Kouta asked simply enough. After all, there was more to cosplay than just wearing it, as he had stressed before. There were at least two quotes he could think of that he wanted to hear right now, but before his attention was soon turned on a fox-clad purple haired tsundere. The look was there but the question of how well the character was portrayed remained...

All the while the creature on his shoulder seemed to be doing the same as its master: crossing its tentacles, observing the potential workers. It however felt something was missing but rather than voicing its concerns it merely hopped off of Kouta's shoulder and scuttled off to one of the store shelves...
