Omega19x: *Ryou walks into Malik's room, peeking with only his head through the door.* "... um... Malik... can... you help me?"
Omega19x: *blush blush*
ph33r my rod: *blinks and looks up from the computer* "...uh, sure." *stand sup* "What's up?"
Omega19x: *weakly pushes open the door. He's standing in the hallway, wearing a... a dress... A black dress that he suspects Mokuba must have sent over. And he can't get it to zip up for the life of him*
ph33r my rod: *blinkblink*
Omega19x: *blush*
Omega19x: "... I... c...can't get... into the... the d..dress..."
Omega19x: *can't reach the zipper, can't zip it up even if he could.*
Omega19x: *just like the last dress Mokuba wanted him to wear, this one's like... two sizes too small.*
ph33r my rod: "Uh... okay... turn around?"
Omega19x: *does so*
Omega19x: *blushing*
ph33r my rod: *starts trying to zip it up, doesn't get very far* "I think it's too small..."
Omega19x: "... that's... p..probably why I... couldn't zip it then..."
Omega19x: *blush*
ph33r my rod: "...you're really trying to prepare for this contest, huh?"
Omega19x: "... the... this is hopeless." *plops uncomfortably down on Malik's bed*
Omega19x: "... the contest is in... a few days... If... if I don't do well..." *covers his mouth before he can say anything else.*
ph33r my rod: "..." *sits on the bed next to him* "...if you don't do well, then what? It doesn't matter if you do good or bad, as long as you have fun, right?"
Omega19x: *looks down* "... n..no. I... I have to do well... It's... for your own good."
ph33r my rod: *blinks* "For my own good?"
Omega19x: *weak nod*
Omega19x: "... I can't say why... I... I can't..."
Omega19x: "... but it's better this way..."
Omega19x: "... but... it won't be if... if I can't do well at the contest..."
ph33r my rod: *eyes him* "...you're not doing this because you want to, are you."
Omega19x: "... I... I am not a woman..."
Omega19x: "I... I don't want to... but... I... I don't have a choice..."
ph33r my rod: "Ryou..." *puts his hand on Ryou's shoulder* "...please tell me. If it's making you unhappy, then..."
Omega19x: "... I can't... or you'll get hurt."
ph33r my rod: "..." *takes Ryou by the chin, looking him in the eyes* "I don't care what happens to me, as long as you're happy. You know that. So... please, just tell me. Why will I get hurt if you don't do well...?"
Omega19x: "... I... I don't know exactly what will happen... but... but he said that... that it would..."
ph33r my rod: "...who?"
Omega19x: "... I..." *looks down* "... I said I wouldn't say..."
Omega19x: *shivers*
ph33r my rod: "..." *lets him go and looks down at the bed* "...okay. If you won't tell me, then... that's okay."
Omega19x: "I... I just don't want anybody to get hurt..."
ph33r my rod: "...I see." *still doesn't know how he'd possibly get hurt by Ryou not doing well, but drops it anyway*
Omega19x: "... I... If I don't do well, then... then we're all going to get hurt... and... and I can't do well if... if I can't even fit into a woman's dress..."
ph33r my rod: "... Did you try it on when you got it?"
Omega19x: "... I... It was on the porch... with a... a note.
ph33r my rod: *blinks* "What'd it say?"
Omega19x: *looks down* "...just... a... a reminder... to... to enter and... and to be good."
ph33r my rod: *sighs and looks at him* "I wish you'd tell me why you're doing this, then maybe I could try to help. Because with all of the time you spend convincing people you're not a woman, I know you wouldn't enter this just because." *looks back down* "...I don't like secrets being kept from me."
Omega19x: "... wh..what size is this thing? A... a zero? Negative 1?" *looks down*
Omega19x: "... I... all right..."
Omega19x: *looks up, a little afraid. he checks around to make sure he's not accidently wiretapped or anything in the dress.*
Omega19x: "... M...Mokuba said so..."
Omega19x: *looks down and cringes*
ph33r my rod: *looks up at him and blinks* "..." *twitch* "I knew it. I knew he had something to do with this." *facepalm*
Omega19x: "... please... if... if he knows I said anything he'll find a way to hurt you for sure... Send his ninjas... I... I don't want to know... and I don't want you to get hurt!"
ph33r my rod: *nods* "I know, I know, I'm not going to say anything. I just... dammit, you can't keep letting him bully you like this, Ryou."
Omega19x: "... but he has... has a lot of ways to... to hurt us. He always does..."
Omega19x: "... I don't want you to get hurt."
ph33r my rod: *calms down a bit and sighs* "...I know, Ryou. But you know all of the things that I've been through. Do you think anything Mokuba could do would measure up to something like this?" *reaches around to touch his back*
Omega19x: "... He scares me sometimes... he... I don't think there's much difference between him and Shadow... He... he should be stopped."
ph33r my rod: *nods and lays back on the bed* "You've never done anything to him that I know of, so why does he always try to humiliate you...?"
Omega19x: "I don't know... I... I guess it
Omega19x: 's just fun for him... or something..."
ph33r my rod: *sighs again, staring up at the ceiling* "He thinks lots of things are fun when they really aren't. I wish he'd leave you alone..."
Omega19x: "...wh..what should I do?"
ph33r my rod: "Well... I guess, just to be safe, you should go ahead and go through with the contest... I know you don't want to, but... I don't want to take any chances of him hurting you, either. Because I wouldn't put it past him."
Omega19x: "... then I need... a dress..."
Omega19x: "or... or is there something special that the queens wear?"
Omega19x: "...I... I don't want to do this..."
ph33r my rod: *sit up* "The queens are supposed to wear red kimonos, so I don't know what that dress is for." *reaches over and takes Ryou's hand* "... Hypothetically, if you did want to enter, you'd want to do good for me, wouldn't you? Like... if nobody was in danger, or anything?"
Omega19x: "... um... y...yeah..."
ph33r my rod: *sighs* "I'm not really helping much, am I."
Omega19x: "... no..."
Omega19x: "... I... I want out of this... the contest...and the dress..."
ph33r my rod: "...have you asked Mokuba what it'd take for him to... not make you enter?"
Omega19x: "... he... just said it... was in my best intrest not to... know. Just that if I wanted you to be safe... I'd do it."
ph33r my rod: "I don't know what to tell you, Ryou... I really don't. If I could do something, I would..."
Omega19x: "...I... I can't face him alone... w..what if he attacks me? Please... Please help me."
ph33r my rod: *gently squeezes his hand* "Of course I'll help you. If he tries to do anything, I'll protect you..."
Omega19x: (when Mokuba-mun gets back from her brb, we have encounter?)
ph33r my rod: (( Sure. XD ))
Omega19x: "... but... first... can you help me out of this... this dress?"
ph33r my rod: "Uh..." *blushes a little* "Sure."
Omega19x: *blush*
ph33r my rod: *reaches over and unzips what little he'd had zipped*
Omega19x: *struggles out of it*
ph33r my rod: *watches him* "Geez, couldn't Mokuba have sent a bigger one?"
Omega19x: "... that's better."
Omega19x: *looks at the tag.* "XXB?"
ph33r my rod: *blink*
Omega19x: *no wonder it doesn't fit*
Omega19x: and off to Mokuba's house they go.
Omega19x: "... maybe... if... if I ask nicely, he'll... he'll let me out of it?"
ph33r my rod: "Hopefully."
Omega19x: *wibble*
ph33r my rod: *wraps his arm around Ryou's shoulders* "Hey... it's gonna be okay."
Omega19x: "... really?"
ph33r my rod: *nods*
Omega19x: *hugs*
ph33r my rod: *hugs back*
Omega19x: *weak smile* "... if... if you say it'll all be okay..."
ph33r my rod: *smiles back, kissing the top of his head* "It will be. I promise. And if it's not, then I give you permission to smack me."
Omega19x: "I'd never want to smack you..."
Omega19x: "... unless it's... oh, kissing is called smacking, right?"
ph33r my rod: *laughs a little* "On occasion."
Omega19x: "... I'll... smack you one like... like that..."
ph33r my rod: "I wouldn't complain~"
Omega19x: *weak smile*
Omega19x: *then blushing, suddenly realizing he's out of the dress and not wearing anything but his boxers*
ph33r my rod: *blinkblink*
Omega19x: *blush* "... I... should... put on some clothes..."
ph33r my rod: "Uh..." *blush* "Yeah."
Omega19x: *nodnod*
Omega19x: *goes and gets clothes on*
Omega19x: *comes back shortly after.* "... we... we need to talk to Mokuba..."
