[There is a knocking on your door. Insistent. Loud. It doesn't matter really where you live or what fake address you've given him to where you live, he'll venture the halls.

It is a nice day. Warm sunshine if one looks. Why waste it?]

[velocitizing]

Ah- sorry, Tyki, I'm afraid I didn't order pizza.

[solo_insanity]

...

...

Probably for the best. Experience has show that isn't one of the skills I am best at.

Honestly, you might be better off eating the cardboard.

[velocitizing]

I'll just find a kitchen with something decent, thanks.

[blinks at him. hi?]

[solo_insanity]

[He takes a step back from the door and motions for her to follow.]

Not going to stay indoors all day, are you?

[velocitizing]

[shakes her head a little and out of her room she goes.]

...Mm. No, it's too nice for that, I guess.

[solo_insanity]

[He holds out an arm for her.]

Have you had a proper tour of this place yet? If you have the time, I have a place or two you might find interesting.

[velocitizing]

[taking it.]

I've wandered around some, but that's not really a tour.

[solo_insanity]

One of the Bosses has a delightful garden with the most unique ... I'm not sure what to call them, but perhaps statues is the right word. Come. It isn't something one sees every day.

[And he leads her deeper into the South Wing passed the grand dining hall. Passed one of the labs the Earl used for experimentation until they arrive at a set of large doors. They had to be large, else how would the fat man fit through?

It opened up to a large, well manicured garden. The grass was cut very, very short so that it was a thin layer. Oh, wait, why did someone put a sandbox in the middle? And why are there flags coming out with numbers?

Perhaps Lenalee realizes it for what it is, but Tyki has never been on a miniature golf course before.]

[velocitizing]

Ah... [nope.]

[NOPE. she has no bloody idea.]

It's. Very interesting? [curious and slightly bewildered.]

[solo_insanity]

[He leads her through the 'gardens' until he finds just the right spot.]

My, my, and there it is.

[Around hole number 12 where a series of lawn gnomes. They stared at her with sightless eyes and one even seems to wink at her before going back to its porcelain stare.]

Odd creatures, aren't they?

[velocitizing]

[watches them. fiendish things.]

Are they dwarves? They seem [evil] a little off.

[solo_insanity]

Yes, well, we should rearrange them then?

[Because nothing bothers the Boss like messing with his lawn gnome set.]

But watch out for shift eyes in that corner. [He points to the far left.] He actually has a pair of knives on him.

[velocitizing]

Maybe... [the gnomes are close enough to Akuma anyway, right?]

Knives. [she tilts her head a little and smiles.] I'm fast enough to take care of myself, don't worry.

[solo_insanity]

[The gnomes are fickle creatures of magic and mayhem. Who knows what goes on behind their beady little eyes. Do they plot world domination or other grand schemes?

He smiles.]

I believe we need a course of action. And what can we do to these garden statues that you imagine will cause the most duress?

[velocitizing]

[of course they do. one day they'll exterminate all life of Earth, just wait.]

See the sand thing? [she motions at it.] Maybe it's deep enough to bury things in...

[solo_insanity]

[He laughs at that.] My, my, I like the way you think. Sand pit it is.

[Tyki goes to try to pick up one of the gnomes, but as he gets close it does a back flip onto the top of a light pole.]
