This was a nice bed...this was a really nice bed...
Mumbling sleepily to herself, Lina tossed and turned on the bed, feeling the sheets tangling under her body. It was the most comfortable bed she had ever slept in, and that was a fact.
Relaxed and comfortable as she was, it would be a while before Lina awoke...and what she saw when she did would be

She smiled to herself a little before noticing the leather strap twitch of it's own accord. Before she could question anything, a distraction came in someone slamming right into her. Feeling arms wrap around her, she flailed a little before managing to turn her head, coming face to face with a very familiar mass of red hair.
"M-Miss Lina!" she spoke in a startled voice, about to ask her friend what had gotten into her, when she took note of a few distinct things. Something wasn't quite right...
No, this was a different Lina, different from the one she knew in the hotel anyway. There was no golden aura from the presense of L-Sama here. Then again the other girl she knew had said she was from an alternate reality of their home. More than likely this one was the sorceress she was familiar with, and from the sounds of things a new arrival. Smiling and moving to hug her friend, Amelia was about to speak when she heard a mental clinking. Tilting her head, she stared in horror at the leash, which had somehow now attached itself to a collar, a collar that was around her friend's neck no less.
Oh no...darn you hotel! Gulping nervously, the healer wondered what to say next. She had to be quick though; something told her letting Lina notice the leash and collar herself was not the best introduction.
[ooc: Yep, and thanks. <3 I admit the app was rather rushed, but hopefully a bit of tweaking will fix any problems. And don't worry, backtagging is never an issue for me ^-^]

Almost of its own accord, that hand moved along the leash until...
"Amelia...?"
Her voice held the sweet quality Amelia might recognize as that of impending violence.
"Why am I wearing a collar? Come to think of it, why am I wearing an ugly collar?!" She gave the red leather, rhinestone collar several sharp tugs of her own, trying to break it. "Grr! Get off, you stupid thing!"
She pulled slightly away to attack the collar with more vigor, and that was when she felt the tug of the leash again. Growling, her eyes ticked down to it, and that was when she saw that it was in Amelia's hands.
"...what the hell?!"

Watching Lina tug at the collar, she sighed heavily. This was going to be rather hard to explain with the other girl so aggravated. Well, it couldn't get any worse...
...oh wait, Lina had noticed her holding the leash. Apparently it could get worse.
"Miss Lina, please, calm down okay?" she insisted, even though she realized it was like asking a ferocious beast to roll over and play dead. "I know how this looks, but I promise there's a good explanation for it. If you just relax, I can explain all this, honest!" she babbled in her defence, knowing this was all that stood between her and possible injury.

As she spoke, Lina was slowly backing Amelia against the wall, puffed up like an angry cat, the light of murder in her eyes. She didn't understand why no one in the lobby was intervening to stop her, but she wasn't complaining. Lina didn't want to hurt Amelia, but the indignity this situation suddenly possessed wasn't easy to ignore.

"Look, I know this is going to sound strange, even though it's fairly common around here, but...well, maybe you should read this." she stuttered, holding out the sheet of paper that the hotel left her as if it was a shield against her friend's angry gaze.
Somehow Amelia knew this was not going to be the end of it, especially with Lina's temper, but actually calling one of her closest friends her pet out loud would just add to the awkwardness of the whole scenario. Hopefully the sorceress would take her aggravations out on the note instead of her.

Even confronted with the back of Lina's head, Amelia would probably still be able to track Lina's emotional state as she scanned the note...and then scanned it again...and then scanned it a third time. By then, her hands were shaking as they gripped the paper before the sorceress recovered herself enough to tear the paper to shreds and tear the shreds into confetti, growling like a rabid dog and panting for breath when she was done.
Slowly, she turned to face Amelia again, a sickly sweet smile on her face.
"So I'm your pet now, Amelia? Is that really how it's going to be?"
Reply
Seeing that little grin on her features, Amelia felt herself break into a cold sweat. Somehow, this was much more terrifying that seeing Lina angry. At least then she knew what she was dealing with. Right now the healer didn't know how close she was to stepping on a landmine.
"W-Well, technically yes, but I promise I won't boss you around or make you do anything Miss Lina, honest. I wouldn't take advantage of the fact you have to do what I say." she held his hands up in defence, the leash still in her grasp and shaking her head. "Actually, you're quite lucky the hotel gave you to me. Some of the people here tend to abuse these sort of events."

All the tugging in the world proved futile in breaking the collar, and the effort left Lina panting for breath again, shoulders slumped in defeat. She looked slowly sideways at Amelia, eyes still promising murder, but body making no move to do so.
"...please?"
Reply
"I know you're not, this is just the way these things work here. You'll be forced to even if you don't want to, that's why they put the collar on." she explained, watching her struggle and looking very regretful that she couldn't do anything to assist.
"I want to Miss Lina, believe me I would, but it probably won't come off until the time given in the note is over."
Reply
"So what time is that?"
Nevermind the fact that Lina had just shredded the note that had told Amelia what was going on, and the note informing Lina of the same had been abandoned back in her room.
"...and what are you going to make me do?"
((ooc: If you're okay with that idea, I would like to try for some smut.))

The other question quickly distracted her train of thought, leaving Amelia to blink in confusion at the sorceress.
"'Make you do'? I told you Miss Lina, I'm not going to force you to do anything." she insisted, about to say more before something occurred to her. Lina really didn't get the full implications of being made a pet in a place like the hotel did she? The princess had been fortunate on her arrival to meet people who were kind and understanding, explaining things and allowing her to adjust. Lina might not be so lucky, and especially with this scenario, Amelia worried on what could happen to her friend if she was left alone in the hotel without any knowledge of what she should look out for.
Tapping her chin thoughtfully, she spoke again, though a little weary in her tone. "However, perhaps, I could help you adjust to how things work here."
Knowing her luck, Amelia guessed she would eventually have to be rather blunt on broaching the subject of sex. Her friend struggled enough to admit her emotional attachment to the man she clearly was in love with, so getting her to talk about physical acts of intimacy was going to be an uphill struggle to say the least.
[ooc: No problem, looking forward to seeing how this goes, it should be fun. X3]

"S-Seriously, Amelia, this has been one of the weirdest days of my life, even weirder than the time with the pig, so...why don't we feed me and go somewhere where everyone will stop staring at us and you can talk about what the hell is going on here?"
She takes Amelia's hand and begins to drag her away from the wall, ignoring the scattered looks of disappointment that a makeout session did not take place. The sorceress had only gone a few steps before she stopped and looked back hopefully at the princess.
"You're...really not going to boss me around, Amelia?"
Reply
"Then let's go back upstairs, were we can talk in private. It'll be more comfortable, and they'll bring up room service for you." she smiled, holding her friend's hand as she quickly gave in an order at the main desk, the staff member nodding in recognition and promising the food would be delivered promptly. Once that was done, she was quick to lead Lina back to her own room, careful about tugging on the leash, her usual giddy self as she spoke.
"Of course not, that would be a terribly unjust thing to do, taking advantage of your situation, I could never do something like that!" she beamed. As promised the room service arrived swiftly, and Amelia allowed her friend to eat to her hearts content. At least in private they wouldn't cause a scene, and if things took an intimate turn, things could run their course.
"Now, Miss Lina, do you know exactly what this hotel is?"
Reply
It was several seconds of busy chewing before she swallowed and looked back up at Amelia curiously.
"'S a...'Love Hotel', right?"
Reply
Nodding in response, the princess inhaled deeply to speak again. So far so good, but this seemed a little too easy at the moment.
"Right, so you know what the purpose of a Love Hotel is, right?" she asked.
Reply
"Never heard of it," she said, taking up a roast chicken wing and biting down hard enough to snap the bones. "Why? Don't tell me places like this are actually supposed to exist! It's ridiculous!"
Although Lina was not yet quite aware of it, the food - like most hotel food - had been laced with trace amounts of aphrodesiac. Taken slowly, they might not have affected her very badly. Eaten in the amount and with the speed Lina tended to approach food...she was already beginning feeling quite warm and comfortable.
