“So this is Valdis’ room. I guess it is sort of what I believe it would look like,” Sophia says, looking at the décor. She takes a closer look at the animal skeletons. If only she knew more about animal biology, so she could try to figure it out. However, she feels even if she ran into ghosts that they would be less disturbing than the skeletons. She picks up the doll of herself. “Hello, little me…” she coos to the doll. “You know some people pay lots of money for doll replicas of themselves. Especially ones this detailed.”

Having looked around the room enough, she moves into the bathroom to get dressed. She feels a little surprised that everything fits so well. How did Valdis find out all their sizes? Was she really good at guessing? She goes back outside. “These are extremely comfy.” She turns to the boys and asks, “If either of you two need my help with getting ready, I am happy to help. Kail, you should redo your makeup to match the change in clothes.”

Amarissa's face lit up at Valdis's mention of getting permission from her dad to paint. "That would be wonderful! Yes, let's schedule that for a later date, whenever is most convenient for your family of course," she finished. By then they had made their way to Valdis's room and looking around, she nodded in agreement with Sophia's observation. It was very Valdis, very much what she expected. What she didn't expect were the voodoo looking replica dolls of all of them, and an uneasy look crossed her face as she looked at them. While she waited on Sophia to dress, she gave each of the males a once over, snickering at Valdis's comment about 'Daddy likes the nice girls' which sounded slightly vulgar to her. "I'll also help. What are we calling you anyway?" she asked before heading into Valdis's bathroom.

Amarissa set her box on the counter and opened it, pulling out the contents. She set the flashlight and blanket aside then pulled off her socks, having left her coat and shoes by the door. The yukata was a white with a moon, star, and cloud pattern in a sapphire blue, silver, and lavender. The obi and haori were both a solid sapphire blue, matching the stars. She wasn't very fond of tabi socks, these were white, but slipped them on anyway wriggling her nose and scrunching her nose up in a cute look of distaste. She then quickly changed, folding her clothes and placing them in the box, she grabbed the flashlight and blanket and exited the bathroom.

Kail was not very amused by any of this his pride had been delt a killing blow. But for now he had to survive dinner with Valdis's father and make a passible female for the night. If he did pull this off though, there would be a acting carrier in the future. That's if this went off for a hitch and more then likely it would not be a problem if he kept calm and thought it into a story or a play in his mind. As he went in and saw Valdis's room, it fit for a girl like her in some way. None the less he sees each of the girls there and one guy. For the most part he knew Rosa and Sophia, the other two on the other hand were unknowns but there was something about them that was familure. But he could not put his finger on it at all. And the male was giving that vibe as well. He sighed and went into the bathroom to change when it was his turn. When the redhead walked out and was wearing the Yukata and it was done perfectly. It was black with red butterflies which was something that he could live with .

"I guess introductions need to be made, I'm Killian Lancaster........I guess during the dinner you should call me Kyrie" said Kail he sighed and looked over at Sophia. He grudgingly agreed that he would need help since he did a passible job coming in "I'll need it since I was not expecting a dinner with her father" he said to her and hoped that in the next few days he could get a day to himself and just relax. Or just unleash his frustrations on something with a big and heavy stick. Perhaps after the dinner he could converse with the others. Kail looks down as his fox companion Aya pawed at his legs for attention and just rubbed her head several times.

Sophia notices Kail’s wounded expressions a little. She smiles and says, “Think of it less like cross-dressing and acting a part. The world is your stage, and you are here to fool them all. Besides, none of us think any less of you. And if you want, I will never bring up this sleepover ever again.”

“Back to business though. Since we are dining with the President and all that, we should probably go with something more mature,” Sophia states, thinking about options here, “However, we still need to distract from your masculine traits, so maybe going natural here wouldn’t be best.” She studies his face for a bit for a few seconds before she smiles as ideas form. “Alright, let’s emphasize your eyes and lips. Probably do a little cat’s eye. It will maybe distract from the masculine facial structure a little. Put a little extra foundation around the places where you grow facial hair. I may need to pluck your eyebrows a little. And we should try to find something to go around your neck to hide your adam’s apple.”

“Lucky for you, we are wearing yukata which has a very straight cut, so no one will notice any lack of curves. However, you need to walk like a girl. Shoulders back, pelvis forward. Swing your arms from your elbows, not your shoulders. Ever see models walk on catwalk? Walk like that.” She looks at Kousuke. “Same goes for you.”

She turns to Rosaline. She was in charge of fixing Kousuke, so she could possibly help her locate the appropriate colors and items. She asks, “Do you where we could get any makeup remover, tweezers, ribbon, foundation, brown eyeliner pencil, brown eyeshadow, and brown mascara?”

Rosaline nodded as Valdis spoke, allowing herself to be embraced by the other. She then quietly observed as everyone interacted. However when Valdis suggested that Killian may give her some competition, Rosaline glared silently at the other, creating such a menacing aura towards the red-haired man that it was almost palpable. She knew something was different about the so called bodyguard, but had not considered this possibility before. She would have to keep an eye on him.

For now Rosaline followed Valdis to her bedroom. If she was displeased at having to share such an experience with so many others, Rosaline did not openly show it. Instead, she simply examined the room, pretending not to notice Valdis and Killian whispering to one another, before nodding when Valdis asked to help with the make-up.

”Of course.”

Rosaline then begins to remove her garments in the room. Because of her modeling jobs, she was accustomed to changing into various outfits in front of others, regardless of gender. She slipped on a deep red yukata which contrasted against golden butterfly patterned on various, uneven sections of the fabric. She then tied a matching golden obi around her waist. The haori she slipped on over top was a darker maroon red. Rosaline then gracefully undid the braid her hair was in before putting it up in a bun with wisps of pink hair falling out and curling softly around her neck.

Once she was done, Rosaline turned around towards Kousuke.

”Hurry up and change out of what you are wearing,” she instructed as she took out his yukata, preparing to help him into it. When Sophia asked about makeup supplies, Rosaline nodded.

”Luckily I have come straight from work so I should have most of what you require,” from her bag she removed a wooden box. Inside it contained a variety of different cosmetics.

”Feel free to use what you need.” She then turned back to Kousuke. After she finished dressing him, she would then fix his makeup.

”I’ll probably need to adjust your wig as well…” Seeing as Kousuke had an athletic frame, he would be a bit more difficult to disguise the Killian, but the yukata should hide most of his frame and Rosaline thought she could fashion the wig in such a way to mask somewhat the thickness of his neck. The makeup should take care of his face.

Once it was her turn, Yuki quickly moved into the bathroom to change. Valdis’ roomed had creeped her out slightly, or at least the replica dolls did.

She did not often wear such clothing, but her mother had taught her how to properly wear such attire. Her yukata was a navy blue, fashioned with pale pink and white flowers. The obi around her waist was red, and the haori was a matching dark blue. Once she was done, Yuki examined herself self-consciously in the mirror a few times before exiting the bathroom.

The other girls appeared so much prettier in their yukata….even the red-haired one who Yuki had been surprised to find out was actually male. Yuki didn’t really know much about make-up so she simply stood there watching as Kousuke and the other went about their transformation.

”Didn’t realize you’d make such a pretty girl, senpai,” she grinned, unable to prevent teasing the other a little bit.

Kousuke looks around at the girls surrounding him, but as he does he catches the exchange between Rosa and Val and a wide grin splits his face. As she comes over to work on him he casually asks her. “So…what’s going on between you and Val? You are certainly glaring at Killian for just being close to her.” He mentions as she works on him. Though he let out a sigh as he puts on the kimono, truth be told it could be better, Kousuke had very broad shoulders and the kimono doesn’t completely cover his masculine physique. The wig and foundation help, but for the most part his appearance is still questionable.

“I guess it’s too much to expect miracles when you’ve got a poor base to work with.” He admits though still seems to be taking everything in good humor. This entire situation seems to be amusing him more than anything else. “Thanks for your help Rosaline. Oh by the way how was the food?” He asks before heading out into the group again with a good natured grin on his face. Kousuke’s “female” voice was actually the biggest problem since he naturally has a very deep voice.

“Well now Taka I thank you for the compliment.” He laughs slightly pretending to be femine…it might have been passible.

Valdis fallowed them in; she shrugged at the reaction to her room. She was barely in here. Most of the time she was out and about.

”When I first was brought here Daddy had it done in pink with unicorns…As you can see I’ve redecorated.”

Valdis went over to her desk and picked up on of the dolls. It was the exact miniature of Rosa, clothes and all.

”I find carving these relaxing; I started doing it to train my visual memory. Each detail done is completely from memory. I’ve used them to guess your sizes….”

Her violet gaze shifted to one of the unfinished ones….it was a rough carving of just a figure that was just starting to take shape. She was stumped on this one, but she would finish it in time. Valdis placed the figure back on the table. Her attention turned to Ama with a small shrug.

”Really it’s whatever times convenient to me. I’m home off and on; it depends how late I end up working.”

Valids picked up Aya as she noticed she was looking for attention. She was happy to oblige while her owner was busy.

”Could have sworn I told you about dinner with Daddy; after all I think I told you how this whole sleep over started.”

As little mouse spoke Val couldn’t help but let out a dark chuckle but chose not to comment as she turned to Rosa chan. Her reaction to Kail had not been missed…This was an interesting development. But as always she was reliable and hopped to helping the two boys. When they were done she looked them both over…Kyrie would pass, Kousuke…Kousuke she would make an excuse for if she was asked.

”If everyone is ready, Daddys waiting.”

Val led them out of her room and further down the hall. Eventually sliding open yet another door into a large room. There was a long low table laid out with a large traditional Japanese meal. The floors were lined with floor pillows to make their seats more comfortable.

Keitha was very late, she had missed meeting everyone at the subway to go to the sleep over, and in doing so she missed the subway ride there so she had figure out how to get there on her own which was no easy task because it had evaded her mind to get anyone's contact information . It took her buying an English to Japanese dictionary so she could piece together the sentence, "What subway do I take to get to Himuro Mansion?" After asking several people and getting the translation right she was pointed in the right direction then had to wait another half hour to wait for it to arrive. She blamed it on the recent even that the Artemis kitty called her 'Awakening'. That and she was determined to get those guitar strings in which she did, but that took a whole nother hour. AND she refused to leave the house until she had her guitar restrung and tuned. So really it was mostly her fault, but either way it didn't make up for the fact that she was alone.

She had almost ducked out and stayed home not going to the sleep over at all. But for some reason she had a feeling that she needed to be there for something or another, maybe it was a Sailor Jupiter thing, maybe not, she didn't really know and thinking about Sailor Jupiter just made her head start hurting. Also ever since she told her dad about it he was so excited for her that she could no longer just not go. The subway finally came to a stop and Keitha sighed with relief, glad she was finally there, maybe hanging out with these people would help let her cut loose and relax. She got up from where she was sitting and slung her guitar across her so it hung from her back by the strap, she then picked up her bag with clothes and other needs inside that had Sir.BaaBaa sitting on top. Sir.BaaBaa was Keitha's stuffed black sheep that she had since she was born and couldn't sleep with out him, he even made cute little fart noises when hugged.

When the doors finally opened and Keitha stepped outside she shivered. Partially from the cold, but mostly because of how creepy and dark it was outside, not to mention she was completely alone and could see no mansion, heck she could barley see in front of her face as the subway flew off. She groaned, "No which way am I supposed to go? There's no one here to show me where I need to get goin." As if on cue a creep creepy horse drawn Victorian hearse came out of no where and stopped a few steps away from her. A fancy man in a top hat step down, opened the door to the thing, bowed, and motioned for her to get inside. Keitha hesitated before deciding that it could be no one Valdis's 'chariot' because so far she had not met anybody anywhere so in love with color purple. As soon as she stepped into it and sat down Fancy Man shut the door and they were off while Keitha muttered, "If the lass had me not believin she was mad she sure has me convinced now."

It didn't take long before the horses came to a stop and Fancy Man opened the door back up and she stepped out gasping. "Sir.BaaBaa I don think were in Irelan anymore love." She said glancing up at the huge mansion in amazement. After she shook herself mentally out of her daze and walked up to the huge door and knocked wondering if anybody would even hear it.

Valdis allowed her guest to become situated while she went to the front door; she was fairly certain she heard a knock. She placed Aya down and opened the front door.

”Ahh, lucky charms; a pleasure that you were able to join us. Do come in”

She stepped aside.

”Please take off your shoes and pick up your package. I will show you where to change so we can get back to the others. We’re just about to start dinner.”

She led Lucky through the halls to her room and would help her get changed before leading her back to the group.

Keitha chuckled, "Pleasures all mine mate, thanks for havin me on such short notice." she said stepping into the huge house pulling off her combat boots and setting her guitar and night bad with Sir.BaaBaa down, "Nice place you ave here, oh an me deepest apologies for bein late I ran into a talkin ca- a er complication." She smiled nervously not sure if she wanted to talk about the Sailor Jupiter thing just yet. a With that she picked up the package and followed Valdis to wherever she was taking her and opened it as they walked. Within it held an emerald green yukata that had red plum blossoms with black limbs spreading across it, a red obi to match the plum blossoms, and a black haori, plus the socks, flash light, and blanket. The only things Keitha recognized and knew how to work were the socks, flashlight, and blanket. "Oi, not complainin or anythin, just curious, but, what exactly is all this? It looks like a buncha fabric ta me." she said looking down at the contents of the package again.

Valdis raised an eyebrow; that girl was about to say cat and if it was talking she knew exactly what the girl was talking about. A grin spread across her face as she patted the girl on the shoulder.

”Ahhh so your one of them. Interesting; if you run into the black one tell that furry bastard I’ve been craving Chinese lately.”

She gave a wicked grin as she led her to get changed. When she noticed the girls confusion she held it up.

”Its called a yukata; it looks like what I’m wearing. Its traditional Japanese wear. I figured we’ll be staying in the oldest part of the mansion so might as well look the part. Now turn around”

Valdis helped the girl into the yukata with surprising ease. Once the girl was don Val began to push her down the hall. After all she was hungry.

She grimaced and then gasped, "Theres two of em?" She then nodded as Vladis switched the subject to the clothing and nodded. "Well alrighty then." Next thing she knew she was dressed up in the emerald yukata with red plum blossoms, the red obi,the black haori, and tobi socks. Surprisingly Vladis had also managed to paint her face with bold black eyeliner, smokey eye shadow, and bold red lip stick accentuating her pale skin and green eyes in a matter of seconds it seemed. She had left her hair to cascade down her back.

Keitha had barley even been able to look at her appearance when Valdis started pushing her down the hall, "Oi you I can walk me self thanks." She huffed and started to walk faster a head of her but only got a few steps before she realized she had no idea where she was going so she stopped and decided to walk with Valdis, "Ya know I use ta think I was bossy, but you thare mate take the crown."

Valdis always brought more than expected to the table. Both metaphorically and literally.

What originally started as a dinner with her and a friend that he met at the Gardens evolved into a full blown sleep over with a little under ten people total. In spite of his best efforts to duck it reasonably, he ended up participating all the same, along with indulging Valdis' wishes for a traditional Japanese style reminiscent of feudal times including old style attire. Prime Minister Adoji Ito wore a simple, black yukata while sitting at the head of the table. He was fiddling with a smartphone, busy as usual and work things on his mind every moment of the day. While the disastrous storm from yesterday had faded surprisingly early, there was something about an accident at an abandoned theater or some other business. He hadn't had time to go through the entire report, it seemed low priority at a quick glance.

The dining room would be an elegant, traditional Japanese dining hall, with mansion chefs working to fill the table with all the vittles of a standard Japanese palate ranging from rice balls to takoyaki to teriyaki. His bespectacled eyes fixated on a few documents at hand, he was certain that his quiet was to be invaded by Valdis' party soon.

Valdis definitely liked to keep the theme. It was almost like a history lesson in dining habits. The food certainly looks good, and there was a wealth of options. Sophia watches the chefs run around quickly, and wonders what it would be like to have servants. However, that train of thought is stopped when she says Valdis’ father. She bows, “Thank you for having us over, Prime Minister Adoji Ito. This really is amazing.” It really wasn’t every day that she could enjoy living like the rich and famous, even if it was only for an hour or two before Valdis began her other, scarier plans for the evening. She sits down with a rather large grin as she waits for everyone else to come into the room.
