Fitness place, huh? Yeah, guess you could call it that.....@,@;;; [rp with cypsiman2]

Yugi was doing his best to keep up, but really Jonouchi and Honda had such long legs!  It didn't help that they were excited on top of that, making them practically jog toward their destination - a relatively new . . . well, they had it pegged for a fitness center of some kind.  None of the three really knew all that much about it.  Though a name like "The Well-Toned Thigh" certainly brought any number of mental images to mind, most of which made Yugi blush.

It didn't help anything either that, in the back of his mind, his other self Yami was equal parts curious himself and sure that their friends were diving into yet another ill-conceived bit of trouble.  Yami loved Jonouchi and Honda just as much as Yugi did . . . but they both also knew how . . . um . . . carnal? their friends could be.  They could turn anything - even a trip to a health center - into something, um, more interesting.

They rounded a corner on the street and their destination came into view.  Well, for better or worse, Yugi figured he was about to find out just what was in store...

All three boys jumped as the tray was dropped, even though Anzu didn't actually slam it like she'd done the tray of burgers the last time. Jou, for one, counted that as a Good Thing, but then she leaned over and it was all he could do to yank his eyes to the ceiling. Oh, look, florescent lights. What a novel idea! ...help?

"Not on purpose," Honda murmured in response to Anzu's first comment, his eyes locked on the unwanted wings. He couldn't make any promises, though, especially not with that slimeball in the corner. That had to be the reason for Anzu's abrupt change of tone, too.

Jou pulled his eyes back down to Anzu's, and the serious look was the same as the one he'd given her the first time. "Yeah, Anzu . . . we'll be giving huge tips. Don't worry," he assured her, his tone devoid of innuendo. He glanced around the table and got a nod of agreement from Honda, and from Yugi...

Yugi finally raised his head, the blush blossoming across his cheeks again as he got another look at her, but his eyes on hers as he asked, "Why didn't you come to the Kame? You know me and Grandpa would be more than willing to help out. And it'd be a legitimate job, not a charity..."

Anzu sighed as she straightened up and stretched her back; embarrassment could wait till later, right now her back was killing her! "Yugi, I just...I really want to do this on my own and besides...there's other factors too." She really didn't want to go into all the awkwardness that would come from being working at the game shop, how one little blurt on her part could wreck her friendship with Yuugi.

Still, a quick glance back to the boss confirmed that she was going to have to repeat the orders back to the guys. May as well get it over with, she thought to herself. "So, that'll be the 'Legs Up To There' for you," she said as she pointed to Jounouchi, not wanting to give the boss even the slightest hint that they all knew each other, "You'll have the 'Thick, Thick Thighs'," she said to Honda, and now came the...well, the hard part. "And you'll be having the 'Breasts Out To There'?"

As Yugi nodded, his face a sheer crimson, Anzu really felt sorry for him, and swore that half of todays paycheck was going to go to a gift for him. Even if that did set her back half a day, she thought with a sigh.

*bbs for the night - gonna play Persona 4................../finally/* =3;;;

I don't want breasts out to anywhere! Yugi thought in alarm. Then he realized it was probably one of the menu items. Was she choosing their orders for them? He glanced down at the menu, gaze barely skimming. Yeah, looked like it. Actually . . . y-yeah, chicken sounded like a good idea at this point. "Y-yes, thank you," he managed to stammer out. He glanced at Jou and Honda and saw that they too were just rolling with it, nodding at the choices she'd made for them. It wasn't like any of them had actually looked at the menus yet.

Yami, for his part, wasn't sure if he should be sympathetic . . . or just amused by the whole affair. Aibou had finally stuffed down enough on his mortification to share a little more of the details of the current situation, though he still wouldn't let the spirit see directly how Anzu (or any of the other waitresses) were dressed. For someone who had spent pretty much all of his remembered existence fighting enemies of one caliber or degree of threat or another, he had a really hard time relating to the possible gravity of this situation. (The fact that he was completely missing the sexual innuendos and the female degradation wasn't helping.)

Anzu delivered the order to the cook, and took the opportunity to rest her feet; the uniform featured its own brand of uncomfortable shoes that forced a rather 'emphasizing' posture upon those who wore them. Still, there really was nothing to be done about it; nothing short of a crazed gunman getting set on fire by Yami was going to push her off this path. After all, Yugi and Jounouchi and Honda and Otogi...all of them had gone through hell and high water to get what they wanted, so why couldn't she endure an insufferably sexist work environment to get the money she needed to fulfill her dreams?

"Here you go!" Her boss said as he shoved three plates full of greasy chicken into her arms. "And remember, shake what your mama gave you, and blond will be sure to tip you everything he's got, Anzu-buns!"

Anzu would have endured that. She would have stayed on, if that was as bad as it could get, all that happening in plain view of her friends. Then he gave what must have been in his mind a supportive pat-and-squeeze on the rear.

All hell broke loose.

OOC: LOL I take it you want Jou or Honda to notice and make a fuss . . . which of course will get Yugi's attention (he wouldn't have been looking atm) and . . . heh, possibly Yami's? XD

I got started kinda late, so I didn't get /too/ far. Went back through parts of Kanji's dungeon to get a few last items I needed to complete a couple of side quests, spent another day or two doing a few other things, then FINALLY tackled Rise's dungeon and got through the first three levels before finally having to call it a night. Or rather, a morning. T~T Crawled into bed about 2a my time. Not regretting it, though!

(OOC: Rise's dungeon...doesn't the music there make your skin crawl? *shudders just remembering it*. And don't worry, I've been there before. My 'play into the ungodly hours of the morning game' was .Hack//G.U. Volume 2 Reminiscence.

And yeah, I think Jou and Honda would be hard pressed to miss what Anzu is doing now; she is very sensitive about her rear, and if you touch it when she didn't tell you to, she can't be held responsible for her actions.)

(OOC: Augh! Yes. It's just . . . so wrong. Makes one feel REALLY dirty, you know? Though I had to LAUGH at Teddy's comment that all the pink was starting to get to him and make him sick. XD *hearts Teddy*

OH! It's /Anzu's/ reaction first, huh? Whoo boy. Though that /does/ make sense. So what exactly is it that she does, just so I know what the guys are seeing.)

[cypsiman2.livejournal.com]

(OOC: And it really doesn't get much better when you do encounter Shadow Rise at the end of the dungeon. And if you *heart* Teddy now, you're going to love him after this dungeon!)

"That's it!" Anzu screamed as she dropped the food and glared into her boss's piggy little eyes. "No amount of money is worth all this humiliation and degradation, you fat greasy pig!"

(OOC: And so on in that vein. XD)
