(Oh yeah. I remember now

You can start if you want

Where were we with Yuri and Vaati again?)

(Okay.

Hm... I'm not sure xc I know that they were starting to be friends and such and... Last place I remember was some sorta cafe? Maybe they can go to a bar next or something cx)

Link: -he's just walking about town, minding his business and heading for the park-

Umbreon: -as for him, he's just lying down in the field outside of town-

(Go to a bar and get drunk? Haha

Also Akefia is Neko!Bakura, Kefi is Human!Bakura's son. Just to clarify the difference)

Akefia was currently stalking a mouse in the forest. He crept up close enough so he could smell it. The tip of his tail twitched excitedly. Unfortunately he had forgotten he was hiding in a bush so the twitching of his tail made the leaves rustle, alerting the mouse. It scurried away. Akefia darted out of the bush and gave chase. He eventually caught up with it and pounced on it. When he looked up, the mouse dangling from his jaws, he was face to face with Umbreon. Looking around he saw that he'd chased the mouse all the way to where the strange creature was lying.

---

Kirito was in the park practicing his sword techniques. Since he'd arrived in this strange world he'd been itching for a fight but he hadn't seen hide nor hair of any monsters. He also hadn't seen any of his friends. He had Yui, but only because her data was stored in his NerveGear and he'd put it on before ending up in this world.

One thing that did worry him though was what would happen if he died. He tightened his grip on his swords. If he could access the game menu--part of it at least--that meant he, or rather his virtual avatar, was somehow stuck in the virtual world and never arrived back in Alfheim. But if his avatar died...would he die in the real world? 

"SAO all over again, huh? Well...I've beaten death twice. I can do it again. And as long as I'm here I won't allow anyone to get killed. Never again."

(sure, let's play with Berion and Zelda)
(what about Creeper? when it is alone, it despawns)

Yubel:
"he did not have permission! he just walked in without asking. maybe yo allowed him to stay, but he just walked in. With that he broke the truce. he wasn't there as a civilian, he was on duty and armed. an armed military force intruding our home without permission. that's what happened, no matter if you care or not. But I do care if Waltz spits on the truce that gives my husband freedom. of cause Waltz had all to do it. the Count is responsible for the actions of his military. You should know that better than anyone, Bakura. You blame the Pharaoh for the slaughter of your family."

Bakura shook his head. "Waltz didn't order Fugue to come to our home. That's why he had nothing to do with it. It's also why this is different. I blamed Ahknamkannon for the destruction of Kul Elna because it was his ignorance that caused those souls to be lost. If he had researched the ritual he would have known what it required. But he let it happen and didn't realize what happened until it was too late!" He narrowed his eyes. "I could say the same thing about Callie you know. She didn't have permission to come to our home either, military or not."

Fugue: "You're a demon. You subsist on the pain, misery, and suffering. No one is exempt from the pain you cause. Not even your own children. Of course, you hate them." I turn to Bakura. "I'm an ass. It's in my nature to be an ass. I don't hold your host responsible for crimes you commit in his body. If you commit crimes because your dark half takes over, there's nothing you or I can do about it other than deal with the consequences that come with it. Tell you what I'll do, Bakura. My main goal is keeping the mansion and the people in it safe. As long as you don't wage another attack here, I don't care what you do, wherever you do it. I don't care about the town or it's people. So if your dark half were to take over and you were to go on a rampage in the city, I'd be willing to look the other way on that. I'd also be willing to instruct the regular guards to look the other way, as well." I click my tongue glancing at Yubel, with a smirk. "Of course, I extend that courtesy to you alone, Bakura, out of respect. I'll, even, include your children in that bargain. But not your wife. I don't respect bitches and shrews. Oh and Yubel, Bakura maintains his freedom because of that truce. I wasn't after him, I was after Callie. I, and others, shall miss her, greatly." I sigh, looking at the time. I step around Yubel, Bakura, and Kefi. "Yubel is free to go back home with you, Bakura. As I have other matters to attend to, I'll leave you two to let yourselves out." On my way to exiting, I pass a small shelf, with jar containing some lollipops, for guards that have a sweet tooth to enjoy while on duty. I pick up the jar, carrying it over to Bakura and Kefi. I hold container of candy up to the child. "Here, kid, have a sucker. Bakura, if you want, you can take one to his sister, too."

(Summary. Bakura and the kids are free to go on a rampage through town, Yubel is not. Fugue and the NPC guards won't say boo about it. Berion is free to have whatever issues he wants with Bakura's slaughter of the townsfolk.)

---

(Tying up Ollen and Aryll on the beach to free them up...)

Ollen: Bowing to the Creeper. "It was a pleasure to meet you, Cupa. However, I've got to take my girlfriend home. We hope to see you around. Toodles." I escort Aryll back to the mansion, give her a kiss goodnight, and go off wandering wherever.

Yubel:
"of cause she had. I invited her, remember. and even if not, That wouldn't have been Waltz' fault. but When his troops march in, then he is responsible for it, simply because they are his troops. He should control them better. But okay. you told Waltz about this. Did Waltz punish his soldier for marching in on foreign territory without permission? no, he just lets it happen unpunished. he had everything to do with it."

(Oh, Shit, I forgot about having Fugue mention Mariku.)

Fugue: Raises an eyebrow to Bakura. "As for Pineapple-head, if I or any of the guards see him around, we'll capture him and deliver him to you to do as you please with him."

(how did Bakura gain Fugue's respect if I may ask?)

(Instead of keeping Callie's child for himself, Bakura chose to return it to his enemy Yami, the child's father. Up until that moment, Fugue saw Bakura only as an enemy that must be destroyed, at all cost. Returning the child, in Fugue's head, was mind-blowing. In one instant, Fugue saw another side of Bakura. Instead of an enemy, Fugue saw in Bakura, not just a villain, but a kindred spirit. A guy just like him. An ass with some minor human traits that pop out, on occasion.)

"Yubel, I made the deal with Waltz and as far as I'm concerned, it's still in effect. It was an unexpected emergency that brought Fugue to our home. And I'm going to say this now. If there is any future emergency or important business that brings Waltz or Fugue or anyone to our territory and home they won't be turned away. Bringing Mariku to me counts as being important business since I requested it."

Yubel:
"It doesn't matter what you say now or how you feel about it. that he broke the truce is a fact."

"He did not. He did not tell Fugue to go into our territory to look for Callie. Fugue did that on his own. It was an emergency situation. The issue of emergency situations was not brought up in the discussion by either of us so I'm as much to blame as Waltz is." Bakura shook his head. "I will re-negotiate the truce with Waltz in light of what has happened."

Fugue: Still standing there holding the candy up to Kefi. "I can attend the re-negotiations, if you like."

(Yeah, it'd be funny~cx)

Umbreon: -his ears twitch as the noise reaches them and he stretches out, yawning. when he opens his eyes, he sees another person in front of him... or was it a person? the being was part cat, a mouse in its grasp! Well... it'd still be rude not to greet either way- Umbre. ~Hello.~

-

Link: -when he arrives in the park, he notices the other person there. hey... he must be a new person here! It wouldn't hurt to greet him, right? he might need some help as well if he is new. and if he's training by the looks of it to him, he could help with that as well! he strides over to him, grinning- Hello there.

-

(Creeper? Well... Isn't there a certain radius she has to be within of people for her not to despawn? If so, she could be around the park or something. There's bound to be people all around.)

Zelda: -wanting to visit Berion, she comes over to his room and knocks on his door-

Yubel:
"and because you didn't discuss it, it is his responsibility. it was his military"

(NPCs don't work for her, it has to be an actual person)

Berion:
I open the door. "good morning, my dear"

(I think I completely missed the part with the candy)

Kefi looked at the candy then at Bakura...or rather the top of Bakura's head. "Can Kefi have the candy, daddy?"

"Why not?" Bakura shrugged. "But don't eat it now. You'll spoil your lunch."

"Okay daddy." Kefi took the candy from Fugue.

---

Akefia twitched his ears and dropped the mouse. "Hello?"

----

"Huh?" Kirito paused in the middle of a strike and looked to where the voice had come from. He noted the lack of a player icon over the stranger's head but guessed the boy was one of the people transported to this world and not an NPC or AI. "Uh...hello."

Fugue: "If you were sick or hurt and needed immediate help and you came to us seeking that assistance, would you want to be turned away or arrested, just because your on our territory instead of your own?"

"Neither of us brought that issue up. An emergency can't be predicted. There's no way we could have known Callie had been kidnapped and brought to our territory. The entire truce itself needs to be discussed again. Or at least some things need to be added." Bakura looked at Fugue. "If you wish to be there then that's fine."

Fugue:  "It's my job as security to protect Count Waltz.  It's nothing personal, just business.  As a thief, if you were to steal my wallet, I wouldn't get mad at you for it.  Yubel is welcome to come along, too.  But it must behave and be respectful to Waltz.  Hmm, we might need to find a babysitter for the kid.  I don't know about you, but I wouldn't trust a demon that hates her own children, with him."  I wink at Bakura, letting him know I'm only saying that to mess with Yubel.

(Oh... If in the park, there are Link and Kirito.)

Zelda: -smiles- Good morning, Berion. How are you?

-

Umbreon: -Oh, so he doesn't understand your language... well, oh well. he could still be nice! he gets up to his feet and looks at him in a friendly way-

-

Link: I haven't seen you around here before, so you must be new here. If you need any help, I can offer some. Oh, and my name's Link.

Abel: Having heard about the loss of Callie from gossip in the town, comes to the mansion to talk to Yami about offering a memorial service for her. So those that knew and loved her can say their final goodbyes to her.

"I'm Kirito. It's nice to meet you too."

---

Akefia looked down at the mouse and then back at Umbreon. "Er..."

---

"Kefi wants to stay with daddy." Kefi announced.

"Well I need to discuss things with Waltz. It's going to be boring big people stuff."

"Cow Walls nice to daddy now?"

"Yeah...yeah he is." 

---

Yami was in his room feeding Caitlyn. A servant was assisting him.

Fugue: "Don't worry, kid. I'll make sure Waltz doesn't hurt your daddy."

---

Abel: Knocks, politely, on the door of Yami's room. "Excuse me, Mr. Yami? I'm Father Abel Nightroad, a traveling priest from the Vatican. I'm not sure if we've met, before, but it is a pleasure to meet you now. I heard about your loss. I would like to offer my condolences. Did you wish to hold a memorial service for your girlfriend. So you and all the rest of her friends can say goodbye?"

Link: You need any help or something, maybe with training or something?

-

Umbreon: -he looks at him in a questioning way, wondering what is the matter-
