the lure of sweets and song

[combat_butler]

Who: Hayate Ayasaki + Lucifer of Pride + A bunch o' idols! OPEN to anyone in Goldenrod who knows them.
Where: Goldenrod City, in the house Hayate rented.
When: August 20th, afternoon.
Summary: Breaking in the new house by inviting over friends!
Rating: If it goes above PG-13 there will be cause for alarm.
Log:

*It had been a little over a week since Hayate got this place rented, so it was high time that there be more activity then just those who were currently calling the place home alongside him. Naturally that means inviting friends over, which while Hayate had done himself, Yayoi had handled by inviting all her 765 Pro idol friends over for a proper get together between the bunch of them in town.

Luckily for those coming over, idols or otherwise, Hayate makes for a generous host! If the fact there was a variety of cookies and snacks spread about for indulging in aren't enough, there's even a masterfully made chocolate cake amidst it all. Given who he knew was coming over, the fact there's a small karaoke machine out shouldn't be a surprise either. ... though how accurate the songs include will depend on Johto's mercy.

Still, it was going to be a busy afternoon for the new house. Hayate would just have to settle for keeping himself busy in the kitchen a bit longer. At least until everyone had started to show up.*

(( As is labeled up there, this is an mostly-open log! As long as you know Hayate, Lucifer or the im@s cast, your character is welcome to show up and assume they were invited by whoever they know! ))

You are a butler, right? Right?

Then...you have butler-powers! Yayoi-chan and I say it's unfair if you have those and superpowers!

[combat_butler]

I... I am a butler, yes... But... There isn't some kind of set of powers that only butlers have... If anything, it's a skillset, not actual powers.


Wait... More importantly, why were you talking to Yayoi about me having powers?!

[fuwa_fuwa]

Oh, because I told her you were a magical girl.

[combat_butler]

. . . Come again?

I must be hearing things, Yui-nee. I could have sworn I just heard you call me a magical girl...

[fuwa_fuwa]

Yep. But she said it wasn't fair if you were!

[combat_butler]

W... Wha... Who cares if it's fair or not?! Where did that idea even come from?! Why would it even default to me being a magical girl of all things-?! Shouldn't I veer towards something like Tuxedo Mask first?!

[fuwa_fuwa]

It was your last resort, remember? But...Hayate-kun...you already have butler-powers! Let somebody else be a magical girl, okay?

[combat_butler]

...

Rest easy, Yui-nee! I will be more than happy to allow other more suitable candidates be the ones to don the short frilly skirts and magical tiaras.

*phew. that was almost a crisis.*

[fuwa_fuwa]

Really? ...Then all those outfits Yayoi-chan found in your closet--they're just for being a butler?

[combat_butler]

*--YELP.*

[combat_butler]

N-N-N-N-No!!! They have nothing to do with being a butler! They have nothing to do with anything! They're just-- they're simply outfits that I've had forced on me or left for me over my time here! Tha--that's all!

[fuwa_fuwa]

Eh? Really?

[Maybe...a little disappointed... She thinks he'd look cute in them okok.]

Then again, that's what makes you a butler and not a maid, right?

[combat_butler]

Y-Yes! Exactly that! No matter how many times I get forced to dressed like a maid, I will always be a butler in my soul!

...

Also, please don't sound so disappointed about this, Yui-nee. I might be your "little sister," yet there are certain areas I'm not suited for...

[fuwa_fuwa]

I'd think you'd suit them just fine, Hayate-kun!

But saying you have a butler's soul...That's really cool! So you'll always be a butler no matter what, right?

1/2

[combat_butler]

--gyaaah! P-Please don't say that! I know it might be true, yet it still hurts to hear!

[combat_butler]

*Okay, rebound, Hayate! Rebound! Get away from the topic of your skirt collection!*

Y-Yeah! No matter what profession comes my way, or what job I take up here for a time... I will always have the soul of a butler deep within! I'm just that good at it~

[fuwa_fuwa]

[Blink blink stare... Maybe he's just sensitive about this... Okay, Yui'll just focus on his butlerimouto-soul!]

Wooow! Hayate-kun, that's really cool! Hey, does that mean you were a butler in every past life?

[combat_butler]

--eh? Past life? I... Um... Given the unlucky star I was born under, I was more than likely just a servant in every past life... Not necessarily a butler...

[fuwa_fuwa]

...Isn't that the same thing?

[combat_butler]

Well, not really... there are a lot of jobs that involve serving that aren't just being a butler.

[fuwa_fuwa]

Hmm... There are waiters and maids and people who serve at fast-food places...it's like they're all part of the same species!

[combat_butler]

... while I'm sure in some obscure video game out there we all count as the same character class type, we all do slightly different things...

[fuwa_fuwa]

Like how maids and butlers are usually just around rich people, right? So it's like a measure of how classy you are!

[combat_butler]

Ah... Trust me, there are some butlers out there who don't exactly have classy personalities.

[fuwa_fuwa]

So they're just pretending-!
