Who: Larry Foulke, Mitsuru Kirijo, and their daughter Mariko
What: Various events-
When: -during the Baby Plot week

Rating: PG?

[This is gonna be a long week for Mitsuru and Larry. They were suddenly burdened in taking care of a girl who thinks they are her parents. To make things worse, she really does look like the both of them, and both adults have matching wedding rings!

Awkward. But the two friends(?) decided to play along the Castle's current prank and actually act like a married couple on a vacation. These are their shenanigans. Dun dun]

Afternoon - Their room

[luxe_can_kill]

[Mariko is busy in her room, scribbling away and groaning. Mitsuru made her do math when she wanted to draw jet fighters and puppies. Weiss is right beside her, eating the potato chips that falls from Mariko's table.

Meanwhile, Mitsuru is doing something she normally doesn't: cleaning the house. Clearly she's not looking very pleased doing the housework since her "husband" is injured. Unknown to her, he's in the shower. Uh-oh]

[If he were out there supervising, he'd probably have a smart remark about her doing it instead of letting the maids do it (after all, there WERE maids all around the place). But alas, he was busy with personal hygeine. Which was a bit of a task because of that godforsaken leg of his. ...but that wasn't gonna stop him from snarking at her later if she decides to let him hear about it.

For the time being, he's content with sitting on the shower floor with his leg stretched out while just letting the water hit him. If he'd just gotten shot in the shoulder, things wouldn't have been so bad, but his leg was going to take way too long to recover. And he REALLY wasn't a fan of having to use that damn crutch.

...but at least when he got yanked out of the clinic, the castle was at least kind enough to supply one. He had to give it that, at least. It was better than dragging his leg everywhere.]

[Mitsuru was taking dirty clothes and towels to put in a laundry basket for the maids to pick up for later. She still has towels in the bathroom to pick up, so she sets the basket on the floor out the door and entered the bathroom without knocking!]

[solowingpixy]

[He'd quickly look up when he heard the latch of the door, but he made no effort to do any moving. If he was that concerned about the whole thing and wanted to dive behind something, he'd probably just sooner hurt himself.

If nothing else, he's tugging the shower curtain closed slightly more and rolling his eyes.]

Is knocking something you rich folk don't believe in?

[luxe_can_kill]

[Oh shit. A naked man!]

Wha- I- I-

[Mitsuru's face turns bright red]

[solowingpixy]

[Yep, he'll be rolling his eyes again, having the curtain closed enough that he'd only be visible to her down to his shoulders.]

You gonna stand there all day or are you going to fill me in on what you're doing in here?

[He would also like to know how she didn't hear the running water, but he'll leave that one go for a bit.]

[luxe_can_kill]

[Mitsuru can't even make eye contact]

I was going to replace the towels. I will be out of your way soon. My apologies!

[Mitsuru ran to the door and quickly shuts it behind her. She sighed and decided to not think of that encounter again. That was so disgraceful... This week seems to want to expose another side of Mitsuru, it seems]

[solowingpixy]

[Geez, he hasn't seen anyone move that fast since Ustio pilots had to zip away from Excalibur. He just calmly watches after her and shakes his head. Maybe that'll teach her to learn to knock from now on...

...if nothing else, awkward as it was, it was amusing in an odd sort of way. If only because of seeing that other side of her.]
