Hm, I suppose it would be a bit heartless of me to put little Satchan to work...

So! It appears that we'll be needing handyman. As for payment, I'm sure we could work something out. But, yes, time is of the essence. It is getting a tad chilly.

A tad?

[nouvelliste]

[ OH HI I'M NOT INCHING UNDER MY DESK FOR SHELTER OR ANYTHING ]

I wonder how Yuki-kun would look in a tool belt and a hard hat...

[icyconformist]

[ From the look he's giving Shigure, it almost looks like he has enough energy to walk over there and smack him upside the head. But he sighs and just looks away. ]

You're not going to help fix it?

[nouvelliste]

Of course I am! What sort of person do you take me for?

[ l-lol he probably shouldn't answer that, and also, he stays where he is. He'll be there soon, don't you worry! He's just pacing himself... or something. ]

[icyconformist]

[ Yuki will be standing up now. Seriously looking ready to clobber Shigure. And maybe toss him out the window. ]

Is there anything we can put over the window?

[nouvelliste]

[ Luckily for them, he's been hoarding clothing and blankets for months! ]

I have just the thing!

[ As he darts out of the room to rummage through a nearby closet. ]

[icyconformist]

...What are you doing? I swear, if you pull out a maid's uniform....

[nouvelliste]

Oh, if only! Nay, I'm sure that- [ the sound of clinking as he makes a point to delicately set an otherwise out of place glass jar full of paper stars to the side. ] -I've got a few old blankets in here somewhere.

[ Alas! He pulls out a tattered gray blanket. ] This will work, wouldn't you say?

[icyconformist]

[ .................Shigure is being serious? Don't mind Yuki, he's in shock. He was really expecting a maid dress or something equally horrifying. ]

...That should work. Now we just need something to keep the blankets secured.

[nouvelliste]

[ If those certain outfits existed here, he would so own them, but sadly the Disco is not one for variety. ]

Well I found the blanket, didn't I? It's only fair for Yuki-kun to help out as well.

[icyconformist]

[ ...Well, if Nii-san wasn't dead, there WOULD be maid outfits for Yuki to wear. ]

Just give it to me.

[ Give, take, whatever. Right now it's all the same for Yuki who will be aiming to snatch it out of Shigure's hands. ]

[nouvelliste]

[ sob and he hands it over. It's not like he was in any rush to do the work! ]

I think there's some masking tape in here, too. You can go put that in place while I look?

[icyconformist]

[ He pauses midstep; he was just going to over to Hatori since working with him would be easier. Buuut he'll frown at Shigure before heading to the closet to look for masking tape--and there better be masking tape, Shigure. ]

[nouvelliste]

[ Oh it's in there... somewhere. ]

You know I can handle this by myself, Yuki-kun. I do know my own closet.

[icyconformist]

[ Oh, it better be. Rummage, rummage, rummage. ]

You would, wouldn't you?

[nouvelliste]

That's generally how it works, yes. [ Ah! He spots it, grabs it and holds it out to Yuki. ] Use it wisely, my young grasshopper.
