[Powder Miner]

The entire time she was there in her maid uniform, Faith tried her level best not to look too horribly embarrassed, if only because that would break her cover. Even if she was sure that Minato would probably enjoy it (geez, even for jokes to herself in her head she had to admit that was low-hanging fruit).

After Yuki had introduced herself, Faith paused for a moment. Well, she wasn't so sure the two of them really needed to come up with cover identities... but then again, what if there was some sort of staff page on the company website? What if other students could just look her name up and find her as some sort of maid?! Oh God, no, she wouldn't ever hear the end of it, it would be terrible. So Faith had decided to introduce herself with a cover name as well: "Uhh... I'm Joan Satou."


Well, everything had worked out, apparently, and now they were heading into bedrooms. Faith's eyebrows raised when she saw Minato head out with Shef; how that boy had resisted his likely urges to barge into one of the girls' rooms Faith wasn't sure (probably hers, huh... whoops, she was trying NOT to blush!), but it was proooooobably for the best. Yoake and Noriko had roomed up too, apparently, and since Faith hardly wanted to end up in a room with some stranger all of a sudden, that made her choice pretty obvious, and actually a pretty nice little coincidence.

Faith grabbed Yuki's sleeve and immediately started to drag her to an empty room. "C'mon sis."

[spümpkin]

Yoake giggled, scratching the back of her head.

"Hehe! I just wanted to get us off to a good start, because I'm sure that this mission will end up in us being friends, Noriko. You seem very lonely, which isn't terribly surprising. Shef and me hang out a lot, Minato is busy with Faith and vice versa, and Yuki..."

Yoake scratched her chin. How many times had she even spoken to Yuki? Who knew what was going on with that girl?

She shrugs with an ambivalent face.

[Twinwolf]

Yuki felt the tug on her shirt and went along with the tug, until they were in the room. "Alrighty then!" she said cheerfully as she was dragged off. She recovers her footing soon after she gets in. "Sooo we're going to be rooming now, that'll be fun! Just a warning, ignore any sounds I make during the night. I sorta dream really intensely. I'll try to keep it down though! Also! Didn't get a chance to say earlier, you make the outfit work!" This is followed with a double thumbs-up.

[Powder Miner]

Faith's eyebrow quirked at Yuki's statement... boy, she hoped that Yuki didn't mean anything weird by that. Well, then again, from what she'd seen of her half-sister Faith hadn't seen her be lewd in the slightest, so it was probably fine. "No, Yuki, don't worry, it's fi--" And then Yuki said the bit about making the outfit work, and Faith proceeded to blush scarlet and put her face in her hands. Stupid maid outfit... she bet she was gonna get ogled... and by more people than just Minato (that one was a given)!

[Chevaleresse]

"Oh." She was pretty sure Yoake meant no offense, but the comment sort of pinged off her in an unpleasant fashion. Lonely? She wasn't lonely, she had Kouta and. . .

Well, maybe she didn't talk to many people, but that didn't make her lonely. "Uh, I look forward to it, I guess. . . ?"

[Empiricist]

Shef
You find a pen and notepad on the nightstand, good for you.

Karen
Satoshi walks into the remaining room and begins unpacking.

[Strider03]

Shef took the notepad, hunched over to write something out on it, hopefully obscuring what he was doing from any cameras. Once he had written it, he resumed a bit of unpacking. After putting a few things away, he turned to Minato.

"You said your name was Hayate? My name is Linden. Pleasure to meet you." He extended his hand to shake, the small note in his palm. If Minato took it, it would read the following (and hopefully it would be read in a discrete way):

Going to do a quick bug search. Based on number of cameras in the wing, no doubt they've got some type of surveillance in the rooms. If you need to talk about the mission, just write something in the middle of the notepad, or leave it someplace for me to check. Notes can be disposed of in toilet. If you really need to talk, you can turn on the water in the bathroom, and we can talk there.

[spümpkin]

Yoake smiles widely and wraps Noriko in an embrace.

"Yay! I can't wait!"

[Chevaleresse]

Noriko stiffened awkwardly at the embrace - not out of fear, she didn't jump or anything, but she clearly wasn't expecting the hug and wasn't quite sure how to deal. Somewhat hesitantly, she put her arms around Yoake to reciprocate the gesture, relaxing slightly. This isn't awful, I guess. . . The other girl wasn't exactly unattractive. . . Noriko blushed slightly, and pulled herself out of the hug. "Ahem. Alright, I guess we should look around, get a feel for the layout now? I don't really have much to unpack."

[spümpkin]

Yoake nods excitedly.

"You lead the way, and I'll follow~"

She is... quite close to Noriko.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Minato simply shoots Shef a nod back and resumes unpacking after shaking his hand and reading the note. He'd leave scoping out the mansion's surveillance to Shef; Minato was a good fighter out in the field, but espionage was something more Shef's oeuvre and something that Minato (hopefully) could trust him with.

Minato would focus on asking questions where he could instead and doing what he could. He was, admittedly, way out of his element.

[Twinwolf]

Faith's eyebrow quirked at Yuki's statement... boy, she hoped that Yuki didn't mean anything weird by that. Well, then again, from what she'd seen of her half-sister Faith hadn't seen her be lewd in the slightest, so it was probably fine. "No, Yuki, don't worry, it's fi--" And then Yuki said the bit about making the outfit work, and Faith proceeded to blush scarlet and put her face in her hands. Stupid maid outfit... she bet she was gonna get ogled... and by more people than just Minato (that one was a given)!

Yuki walked over and patted Faith on the shoulder. She might not have gotten why Faith was so worried about it, but she could tell what she was embarrassed about.
 "Don't worry! The only ones here that can recognize you are friends!" she said this next part more quietly... "And if Minato tries taking pictures I'll break the camera~!"

[Strider03]

Good. Shef had packed lightly, to put it simply. Once he had hung his few shirts in the closet, and folded up the rest of his clothes, He began to investigate the room. Not immediately searching for bugs, instead taking the steps that presumably anyone unfamiliar with a room would. Searching out the light switches and fixtures to which they correlated, checking the view outside the window, and investigating anything that might have been left in the room specifically for them. Maybe books or something, or a note from the other staff directing them. For actual bugs, he'd do a full search in the evening, after the work had been done. Didn't want to arouse suspicion by being late.

[Chevaleresse]

Noriko cleared her throat, stepping away from Yoake and toward the door. "Uhm, well, I'll just pick a direction and go, then." Was that on purpose. . . ?

[Powder Miner]

Thankfully, Faith didn’t actually think Minato would go that far, especially if she made her discomfort with this uniform (more) known, but the fact that Yuki would be willing to just go and break a camera for her was touching on its own.
”Aww... thanks, Yuki. You’re a good sister.”
Faith stepped towards her half-sister and suddenly enveloped her in a hug; it was nice to have someone who cared for her like this.
