Even more Princes

[Whatever the reason you've come here for, you've found the kitchen engulfed in a distinctly sugary smell, all centered around the green...thing sitting on the middle of the table, surrounded by dirty bowls, whisks and other kitchen equipment. It has a candy cherry on the top suggesting that it might be some kind of dessert. Maybe.

Kei returns to the kitchen just a little bit later, giving you an awkward smile.]

Oh, I thought the kitchen was empty...Did you need something?

[A recent operation has brought a lot of attention on Team Rabbits and now Kei has been cornered by someone wanting to hear about it. Perhaps a fan or someone interviewing. Maybe it's you or maybe it's someone else. Regardless, she seems not to have an easy time dealing with it and is practically looking for an escape.]

[Kagura turns to the cameraman filming her, the metallic coffin-like shape of her upper torso basically making a shade]

I SAID SCRAM. YOU HAVE TEN SECONDS BEFORE I HAVE YOU THROWN OUT OF THE PREMISES. [You wouldn't think that a voice that sounds like a somewhat metallic Microsoft Sam could transmit distaste, but Kagura somehow seems to manage]

[There's no need to repeat it, he's already beating a retreat. Just one with the camera turned on. He does hurry rather more after the repetition and quickly vanishes along with the reporter. In the meantime Kei has been standing around looking increasingly awkward at the extra attention.]

[When the camera and the reporter are both well off from earshot, Kagura turns]

FUCKING CAMERA LEECHES.

[Kei didn't look quite as thankful as Kagura might expect.]

I don't look forward to seeing that on the news tonight...

[keep_your_dignity]

I DOUBT THEY WILL AIR THAT

[majestic_keiki]

The press loves to expose corruption and abuse in the military. They'll be all over undue pressure and threats.

[keep_your_dignity]

THEN THEY GET TO EXPLAIN WHAT THEY WERE DOING INSIDE A MILITARY AREA WITHOUT AN AUTHORIZATION, WHICH IS A CRIME UNDER LAW.

THEY WON'T WANT THAT. THEY'RE JUST LEECHES. THEY LIVE OFF MAKING OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVES MISERABLE FOR ENTERTAINMENT AND HIDING BEHIND FREEDOM OF THE PRESS WHEN THEIR VICTIMS STRIKE BACK. FACING SOME ACTUAL CONSEQUENCES WOULD REQUIRE A STOMACH THOSE BUGS DON'T HAVE. [In case it wasn't obvious, turns out Kagura has a clear thing against the entire reporter class in general]

[majestic_keiki]

People still need news or they'll just make things up. And I imagine someone gave them permission. Why else wouldn't they have been thrown out yet?

[keep_your_dignity]

BECAUSE THEY PROBABLY SNUCK IN. AND IF THEY DIDN'T, I'LL HAVE A TALK WITH WHOEVER LET THEM IN. IF I FIND ANY OF THEM ACCOSTING ANY OF MY MEN I AM THROWING THEM OUT. [And one gets a feeling she means that literally] THEY ARE FIGHTING FOR THE LIVES OF PEOPLE LIKE THOSE. THEY DON'T NEED LIES PILED UP ON TOP.

[majestic_keiki]

...Call the press officers and let them handle it next time. [Not that she'd taken her own advice, but still.]

[keep_your_dignity]

DON'T TRY TO GIVE ME ADVICE, ROOKIE.

AND IF YOU WANT MINE, STAY WELL AWAY FROM THAT STRIPE OF PEOPLE. THEY JUST MAKE LIVES DIFFICULT.

[The gigantic robot salutes and turns to leave, unless Kei has anything more to say]

[majestic_keiki]

[Kei nodded slightly at Kagura's salute, turning to move on her own. Once out of earshot she stopped to sigh slightly.]

What was that about.
