[Miyabigaoka] Takeuchi Manor

"Good. Since we're all obviously participating in the current Parts War, I thought it'd be best if we went about solidifying our core teams. Shizuka and I devised a course which would put your abilities to use in reviewing the members of each team, while also permitting the initiation of the newer members into our divisions, if necessary. Shoichi, you may have your pick of the remains for whatever rag-tag team you'll be throwing together," he said while glancing with narrow eyes in the Sky King's direction. "Nah. Fuck all that," the white-haired man replied swiftly. "I'll throw a new team together. I don't want my group to come from you guys' camps."

Without further ado, the Tar King turned to take his leave; albeit not before being halted by one final inquiry by the Storm Queen. He stopped in his tracks only long enough to look over his shoulder and reply. "If you must know, and for the sake of shutting up any future dribble you'll come up with as speculation, I'm going on a shopping trip. As I said: Compromise."

"Fuck! Good on you two. I'll do what I can and accept payment in the form of lemon flavored candies and snacks~" Chiyo said of the use of her abilities to help decide newer team members for the Black Order's branch teams. And it seemed like after that and a brief exchange the Tar King would be off on whatever trip he planned to take this afternoon. Only before he left completely he seemed to want to answer Chiyo's previous inquiry and as he paused only long enough to relay the information a huge grin spread across the small girl's face as she exploded into a fit of giggles. Her laughter was such that she wouldn't get the chance to bid the purple haired man a proper goodbye. It would take her a few moments to get herself back under control but once she did, she wiped a tear from the corner of her eyes. "That clears up a couple of questions. And amuses the hell outta me~" she said before turning her gaze to the Sky King. "Are you coming to the meeting, Shoichi?"

By the time Mukuro's departure could be considered absolute, Shoichi had taken the very last bite of his parfait and started cleaning the goblet. Now that it had been a topic of conversation, Shoichi wondered who he would be looking for to complete his team for the Parts War. He had a couple of ideas, though one was a bit of a gamble, but that was quite literally a matter for another day. He supposed for the others, he'd be looking into these supposed initiates. "Yeah, I'll go. I said I wasn't gonna take anybody out of you guys' groups, but I didn't say anything about the ones that haven't been sorted yet~"

"Nice! There should a few interesting ones of those. Happy Hunting!~" and just like that the Storm Queen had shifted focus. Her own bowl was already empty and she was now leaning back in her chair forcing it to balance on its back two legs. By her own approximation she'd need to swing by the Twins' apartment to get her Black Order Uniform. And beyond that she'd need to speak with Kanda. Her own team, had a core which was presently only three people and she needed to sort out her own final two members. The meeting would be a good time to shuffle some people around. "Fuck! I should get my phone and see how many people freaked out while I was gone. Bet the messages from Muu-nii are hilarious~" she said allowing her chair to fall back with her in it. But by the time it would have hit the ground she was standing and pushing it back into place with her left foot. After this she would stroll around the table to squeeze a quick hug out of the Pledge Queen before she headed out. She felt really good at the present moment, like she could do literally anything, and it was such a good feeling.

"Hai hai. I'll give 'em a good look later. I wanna find somebody else first, though," the Sky King said as he collected Chiyo's goblet. Though Usagi had finished eating as well, her dish was nowhere near empty. This was nothing to worry about, though, as the small white creature called Buster came flying into the kitchen to eat it from a perch atop the Pledge Queen's shoulder. This occurred immediately after the young woman was released by Chiyo, but its arrival did not silence her words. "I'll come tonight, too. If any of you take on someone new for your teams, I can get them fixed up right away!"

"Hai!~" was Chiyo's response to Shoichi only. This was after the hug and release of the pink haired young woman and the arrival of a certain little creature named 'Buster' of whom the Storm Queen was quite fond. As it perched atop the Pledge Queen's shoulder, the small fanged girl let out a minor delighted squeal. "Kawaii~ Buster! It's been ages~" she chimed in a low voice rather happily giving the small animal a pet. This would only last for a few seconds though. The other young woman's words though would definitely be noted and appreciated by the pig-tailed girl. "Hai!~ See ya' there~" she mentioned finally peeling herself away. "Ooh maybe we can play afterwards~" mentioned Chiyo as she headed out of the kitchen. "I'll be upstairs a bit longer if anyone needs me before I head out..." she mentioned in passing before she hit the stairs seeming to take them about 5 at a time without really trying. Rather suddenly the small girl had gotten pretty hyper and she was going to get dressed and get her stuff so she could head out, and enjoy her ride on the way to the Twins' apartment.

Later in the afternoon, a wind tunnel of Shoichi's creation reached the building from within the residential area nearby, first giving way to numerous boxes filled with Mikasa's belongings. A minute or so later, Shoichi himself descended. He brought with him the Thunder Queen Mikasa, as well as the girl's two friends he'd so recently met. Once again, there was a soft landing to end the hasty drop. "Okaerinasai!"

The exciting nature of the ride over had all three girls having a huge grins on their faces. "Sugoi!~" the all chimed as they came to a soft landing after a rush of exciting twists and turns on the way over. It was something very different than they expected and higher up than any of them had been in a very long time. "Arigatou Gozaimasu, Sho-nii." Mikasa said seemingly very pleased in a way that wasn't necessarily about the ride but about the smiling faces of her two friends who were still holding hands and circling each other in their excitement as they discussed the Sky King's awesome transportation abilities. This would occur for a few seconds before they looked to the actual house and all stopped moving and stared.

"Sho-nii you've redecorated." she said which was likely the understatement of the century because the house looked completely different than she remembered from the time she'd originally come back and tried to room there. Sawa seemed stunned. "Wow! This place is awesome!" she said. "It's so big. I saw construction on this place, I thought it was going to be a resort. This is your house?" said Hana who seemed to be stunned by the massiveness of this house. Most would also be rather shocked to find out that the Sky King was presently only living within with two other people. Now three.

"Doitashimashite!" he replied to the Thunder Queen's apparent gratitude. When the others were looking at the building, he did as well, finding a bit of amusement in Mikasa's assessment of the place. "Well, yeah... sorta... kinda... not really. Jun and I kinda blew the house up a few months back, so it's been rebuilt. All but three of the rooms here have officially never been slept in. Well... two... but that ain't important."

Mikasa simply smiled as she took in the new place she'd be calling home. The information that the reason for the remodel of the house was because of a misadventure between the Sky King and the Rumble King made Mikasa's eyes light up. The other two girls also stopped their musing and stared. They didn't know much about many of the Gravity Children but Jun was a name they knew. There was also the bit about only 3 of the rooms in the house being occupied, but the last bit about their only being two was only truly caught by Hanako. "Jun'Ichi-kun..." was the name said by the Thunder Queen before she rather quickly tried to cover her very specific interest in the green haired young man. "Eto, this is a huge house for only four people. But it looks amazing." she said leaving the subject alone while a set of quick glances between the group led to giggles. "I am still not over the fact that you're claiming that you and a single other guy are the reason for your previous houses destruction..." Sawa mentioned. Then again, she hadn't been privy to the kind of destruction that could be caused by gravity children with active regalia. Or even some of the stronger ones just by virtue of their runs.
