[h1]Gintoki[/h1] Wiping the sweat from his brow as the current wave of mooks had been dealt with, Gintoki brushed off his clothes and checked his bokuto over carefully for any signs of damage; though it was nowhere near likely that it'd break, the chance still remained that it might, and without anything to replace it with being readily available... "Alright, no cracks, just lots of blood. Good to know." he breathed, a hint of relief present in his voice as he leaned against the wall. Well, human mob tactics only worked so well. Just going through the motions now, right? Just as he let down his guard a little, though, he noticed a figure steadily approaching his position. A friend? A foe? ... A little girl. "...O-oi. This ain't right." he sighed, shaking his head. The child in front of him was wielding two blades, it seemed, but... Letting her roam free around the mansion at a time like this? "Hey, kid! It's dangerous here! Don't think yourself safe just because you've got a weapon!" Of course, the thought of that little girl being an enemy crossed his mind, but since this place was so chock-full of little girls anyways... Actually, what was WITH this place, anyways? The gender ratio was so skewed... [h1]Suwako[/h1] "Recette... Tear... That's an interesting duo you've got here~!" Suwako laughed, looking at the juxtaposition of the two. The fairy certainly seemed to be different from what was normal in Gensokyo; there was no indication of any affiliation with nature, and... Well, the snarkiness that she was using certainly set her apart if the rest hadn't already. The girl, on the other hand... Well, Suwako wasn't entirely sure how to peg her, but hey, help was help. "Hey, so, I've got a lot of questions. I mean, a [i]lot[/i]. But... You know... Too much attention right here and all that; any place we can go to get our bearings straight about this place?" she asked, beaming. "We're not gonna get anywhere if people start getting too curious about us just popping outta nowhere." [h1]Kakine[/h1] With both of the contracts signed, Aleister calmly retracted both back into wherever the heck they came from before sending a file with the location of their guests' new temporary lodgings to 10032's goggles and dropping two cards- one for Marisa, and one for Lucina- into their hands. "Thank you for understanding. I'll bring Awaki up here to escort you out shortly." Aleister stated, his voice just as lifeless as it had always been. "10032, Teitoku, please bring these two to their new lodgings. You'll be contacted tomorrow in regards to the next location you'll be dropped off at; in the meantime, you are free for the rest of the day. Dismissed." As if on cue, Musujime appeared behind the group of four, an irate expression on her face. Though Kakine was certainly aware of that fact, by no means did he want to irritate her, if at all. "You ready? Then we'll be off." she said, waving her flashlight at the four of them. The sudden spatial distortion and change in lighting temporarily made Kakine cringe, but... No matter. If it meant he could stop dealing with Aleister for today, the better. "Okay, if that's the case, then... The machine's probably down for maintenance again. It's unstable, so it makes... Reasonable sense." he muttered to himself as his eyes readjusted to the light. "Well, we've got time right now, so we can either get you two settled down like Crowley suggested, or we can explore the city for a while. And no, Marisa, that does not mean 'fly around and steal everything you come across'; you've got your guest ID now, and it's got money linked to it, so you can buy stuff instead. Alright?"
