Yuki entered the church with a full rucksack on her shoulders. She thought she’d seen someone go in here a while ago, but it was hardly unheard of for her to imagine things like that. And even so, it may not have been the right person or people—oh, Eiji. Good.

He approached her well before she could close the gap, but she didn’t seem to mind. She shuffled the straps off her shoulders at no quick pace.

“Hello… Ebina-kun. Oh, humm… I think I had some mango… Nothing excessive, I guess… And I’m really not particularly tried, so it’s nothing to be worried about…”

She hummed. “Usually I reserve tea time for waking myself up… And some sleeping medicines might work, but… I’d need something strong. And if it’s addictive, we couldn’t really afford to keep buying something like that… Maybe there’s some kind of sleep medicine in here, though…? I wonder if video game sleep syrup would be addictive… Hummmmmm…”

Before she could adequately shuffle through her back, Eiji had flown on to the next topic.

“Hahh…? A… I’ve never had a massage before; I’m not sure…”

Was she really going to turn down the opportunity to have a cute guy rub her shoulders? No way… Probably. Uh. She picked at her collar for a second before realizing she didn’t have one.

“Oh, um…! Have you eaten yet? It’s a little early for me to be personalizing bentos much, but I did make one for you… With some fruit. Haha…”

She finally managed to locate a box among the others in her bag that had a little splotch of bluish tape on it. “Though I can throw it back in the icebox if you’d rather have it later…”

It wasn’t often that Eiji received gifts. In fact, he couldn’t remember the last gift he received from someone other than Kei (and it was very hard to remember even that). His eyes widened when Yuki pulled out a bento which, from the sounds of it, was for him. As his cheeks slowly began to redden, he glanced away.

“Ah, Kurokame-san…” he began, only to pause. He had to choose his words carefully. “I’m not sure I can accept this. I mean, maybe you can give it to Kubota-dono instead? I think he’d appreciate it. Though it’s not that I don’t want it! I’m simply… uh… allergic… to bento.”

That was clearly a lie, and he knew it was obvious. He tugged at his collar and cast his gaze towards the ground. To lie to such a sweet girl was despicable, wasn’t it? He was already undeserving of the gift, but now even more so. His hands returned to his sides and he bowed deeply.

“I’m sorry, Kurokame-san. I’m, um, not actually allergic to bento. I merely don’t deserve your kindness! I haven’t done anything for you. So please give it to someone else, okay? If not Kubota-dono, then someone else who’s nice. I just don’t deserve it at all.”

Slowly he straightened up to study her properly, a very timid smile on his face. He prayed he had let her down easy and that she wouldn’t mind.

shsl-plaguecaller:

Well, this wasn’t as bad a notion as the previous announcement. But Emiko still didn’t like it very much.

Why the foxes? They hadn’t done anything, had they? It sounded like they were just plain ol’ foxes, to her. What did they do to deserve to be hunted?

Looking at the guns being handed out, she’s suddenly stricken with a bit of panic. W-wait, are they really that big?! She nearly fumbles with it when she receives hers. Oh boy, it’s heavier than she thought. The butt of the musket slides out of her grasp and hits the ground, narrowly missing her foot. Her arms wrap around the length of the gun, hugging it to her body.

When she draws her gaze across the barrel, she puffs her cheeks out in annoyance at the fact that the end of the gun is a couple inches above her.

Gosh, how would she even shoot this thing… She glances around the group, eyes landing on the butler. Oh, Eiji! He seems helpful and reliable! And hopefully won’t judge her for not even being able to hold the gun properly! Adjusting her grip, hiking the gun up a bit so it doesn’t drag across the courtyard, she jogs over to him. Well… tries to, anyway.

“Ebina-san! Ah, s-sorry if I’m interrupting you or anything. Do you, uh, oh gosh hold on–”

Emiko loosens her grip and lets the musket slide down so the end is resting on the ground once more. Okay! 

“Sorry! Um, do you know anything about hunting? I’ve never been this close to a gun before… You don’t think we’ll be shooting actual foxes, do you?”

She jerks her head a bit, shaking her bangs out of her eyes, before staring up at him.

The gun was a lot bigger than what Eiji had been expecting as well. His arms shook as he inspected it, cheeks red from exertion as well as embarrassment. It was humiliating to be struggling so much when he was so much taller than someone like, say, Emiko. At least she had a reason to struggle. And speaking of Emiko...

“Hello, Satoshi-san,” he said warmly, nodding at her. “Its nice to see you again, even if we’re on different teams.”

He let the top end of the gun drop to the ground, sighing in relief. He wasn’t sure of this was the proper way to rest a gun, but he’d rather shoot into the ground than shoot upwards. Though he probably shouldn’t be talking to the enemy, surely Emiko didn’t mean any harm. She was too friendly.

“Ah, um, hunting?” he echoed. “I haven’t ever been hunting before now. It seems kind of inhumane… though it’s probably not my position to pass any judgement! I’m just glad the foxes are part of the simulation -- well, at least I hope they are.”

He laughed awkwardly, before adding, “Rest assured, they most likely are. I suppose it’s like a videogame, except more realistic. Ahah, right?”

Religion wasn’t exactly up Eiji’s alley, but the church looked too beautiful not to visit. The stained glass windows looked especially stunning, and that was from the outside. So if he was going to be stuck in this simulation indefinitely, he might as well get to know his surroundings.

He entered the church, eyes widening at the scene before him. The sunlight filtered in through the windows, causing splashes of color to light up the room. It was a bit unnerving to see a strange NPC standing idly, but after dealing with their new ‘king,’ he was glad they didn’t jump up and immediately demand he murder the next person to come through the door. And he was even more relieved this wasn’t the case when it turned out to be Yuki.

He remembered meeting her not too long ago -- the bento arranger who looked like she never slept. He approached her with a warm expression on his face.

“Hello, Kurokame-san,” he said. “Are you doing okay? Have you tried eating any fruit? I was thinking about how tired you seem, and I think tea or sleep medicine would help too. You know, if you don’t want to try makeup or fruit. Oh, and massages can also help!”

He nodded vigorously, an idea then occurring to him. He gestured for her to turn around, still rambling.

“I can give you a massage now, in fact. Sometimes I give Kubota-dono massages and he seems to think I do a good job. So please allow me to try my hand at helping you feel more relaxed!”

Fox hunt || Closed for Eiji

[asyourservant-blog]

whitehairedperformer:

That stuffed bear actually expected everyone here to hunt a fox? Yakamochi held the musket that he’d be given. He was a performer not a hunter, this event was pointless. Teams had two hours and one shot each, Yakamochi could afford to slack off for the time being. 

“I’ll be back soon” Yakamochi left the area and decided to walk around outside for a bit, the other team was on the other side right? He decided to check and maybe see how the other team was doing. The bear said nothing about not being able to spy on the other team.

“This is dumb, why am I here…”

Yakamochi went to turn back before he got into trouble and instead walked straight into someone. Nice one Yakamochi. 

“Sorry bout that, ya alright?” 

Eiji was beginning to realize hunting was much harder than it looked. He had never liked the idea of killing animals for sport, so the musket wasn’t the only thing weighing him down. His heart felt heavy as he looked for the foxes. If Kei wasn’t with him, he no doubt would’ve sat this one out, but an order was an order. Kei wanted their team to win no matter the cost.

Still, he couldn’t help but feel relieved there hadn’t been any sightings thus far. He sighed, trying to look invested as he kept lookout. Yet he was so focused on foxes he failed to notice something else approaching.

Thud.

Eiji nearly dropped the gun as someone ran into him. He stumbled backwards, catching himself right before he fell into the mud. He straightened up when he realized the person standing before him was a classmate.

“Oh, my apologies!” he said, bowing.

After a few seconds -- making the whole ordeal much more formal than intended -- he straightened up. He then studied the boy before him before asking, “Have we met yet? I assume you’re a classmate of mine!”

He smiled and a moment later realized he didn’t recognize this person at all. Well, they looked vaguely familiar in a famous person way, but he definitely wasn’t on his team for this game! His eyes widened and he tried not to look concerned. Was this subterfuge? Was he going to get in trouble for talking to the enemy?

His expression morphed into one of nervousness as he tried to think of a way to get him to leave without being rude. With nothing coming to mind, he stood there awkwardly, musket shaking as his arms grew weary from holding it.

“Um… so what’s your name?”  he decided to ask. Maybe if he distracted this spy, their interaction could end on civil terms.

Technology is Amazing || Prologue || Kei

[asyourservant-blog]

shsldollarsign:

Yes, Kei was in the throne room. It was only suitable for a person like himself, and he was sat in the middle of the biggest chair he’d ever seen. One hand down on the arm rest, one hand holding his cheek, he felt powerful in a way he’d never felt before; virtual reality aside, he could pretend this was real life forever, so long as he was continuously granted his luxury… Not that the rest of the castle lived up to his expectations, anyway.

He smiled when Eiji came in, however. 

“Do you like what you see? It’s only natural, Eiji. I look admirable, even under the abominable stained glass windows overhead.” He pointed upwards. He had an odd distaste for religious imagery of that caliber. The rest of the room, however, he liked. 

When Eiji touched his cheek, however, his face fell and he tensed up.

“E-Eh? What’re you…” His sentence faded as the blush crossed his cheeks. “That’s unsuitable of a butler, Eiji. Be more professional.” Though his voice was stern, it immediately fell into something softer. “…Wait. Do you really think so?” 

The scolding was not unwarranted, Eiji decided, given how unprofessional caressing his master’s face was. He smiled sheepishly as he returned his hand to his side. But before he could apologize for getting ahead of himself, Kei said something a bit unexpected.

“Huh?” he said, blinking a few times. Was it really that unexpected? “Oh! Yes, it’s very high-tech. Here, Kubota-dono, allow me.”

He then reached for his hand, taking it in both of his gloved ones. Now holding Kei’s hand tightly, he brought it up to rest on his own face.

“See?” he asked, eyes sparkling. “I’m not nearly as soft as you, Kubota-dono, but isn’t it realistic?”

After a few more seconds of blithe smiling, enjoying the feeling of Kei’s hand on his cheek, he froze.  He hastened to release Kei’s hand, realizing he had acted out of line yet again. After glancing over his shoulder to make sure no one had seen them, he dipped his head.

“I’m sorry. I acted out of line again. Ahaha, my apologies... Nobody saw, right?” He paused. “But if someone did, I promise I’ll take full responsibility! I shouldn’t have touched you so, uh, intimately to begin with.”

He sighed and looked away. “I just got excited. I’m sorry, Kubota-dono. Um, if it isn’t out of line to say, you do feel exquisite even in this fake world.”

primadonna-idol-girl:

Kae had no idea what to do now that she was up and walking about; the virtual world sure was gorgeous, but there wasn’t much to do right now.

Oh well. Time to pick flowers, friCK YEAH.

She picked a couple daisies to make a small chain, then immediately had a thought; could she forward roll through the flowers without getting dirty? It was VR, right? Why would they program that in? Time to find out! She forward rolled into a large patch of flowers, miscalculated her trajectory and ended up bowling into the back of someone’s legs. Shit.

Oh no, she’d gotten dirt on their lovely white pants!!! Double Shit!!!

“Oh geez!!”

Kae quickly scrambled to her feet, similarly experiencing a couple grass stains on her stockings as she frantically apologised to the stranger; oh no, he’s really handsome!! And his suit!!! His lovely white suit!!! Heck!

“I’m SO sorry!! I didn’t see you there, and now I’ve ruined your nice suit pants!”

Even the flowers in this virtual reality smelled nice -- or perhaps it was his imagination. That being said, Eiji swore he could smell the sweetness of the flowers around him. He bent down and plucked a flower from the ground, before bringing it up to his face. It smelled just like the ones in the Kubota mansion’s gardens!

He smiled softly as he enjoyed the quiet moment. Perhaps that was why getting barrelled into was so disarming. He hadn’t even noticed the girl leaping into the flower bed until she had ran straight up against him.

Eiji stumbled backwards, dropping the flower as he nearly fell over. He squeaked as he just barely caught himself and winced upon realizing his suit pants were completely ruined. That being said, he immediately bowed.

“Ah, my apologies! I should’ve moved!” he said, eyes wide.

He then bent down and offered her a hand. As he did so, he noticed the severity of how dirty his suit pants were. His face paled as he realized how displeased Kei would be.

“Kubota-dono is going to kill you…” he whispered, looking down at the grass stains. “Or rather, he’ll kill me. It’s my fault, after all. So please don’t worry! I’ll take the blow. It was a mistake, after all. Plus I’m sure there’s a place to do laundry around here. I can do your stockings too while I’m at it!”

Is It Hot In Here Or--? || Prologue || Open

[asyourservant-blog]

shsl-plaguecaller:

“AH!”

Oh, okay, it’s just another person. Calm down, Emi. Her fingers had just barely brushed against the handle, when it suddenly opened. She presses a hand to her chest, evening her breaths.

“Sorry, I– oh.”

Emiko is, once again, caught off guard by the civility. Sure, people are usually nice, but this is a little more than she’s seen. Hm, wonder what that’s about? She draws her attention from him and looks to the room behind him.

Oh, wow! It sure is different from any kitchen she’s ever seen. Seems perfect for such a game! But… gosh, it’s awfully warm in there. She thumbs the sleeve of her sweater for a moment. Mmmm…. no, she doesn’t feel like being roasted, today. She can always come back to the kitchen another time! Wouldn’t want to be barely into the first hour a sweaty mess.

“Oh, that’s okay! I, uh… think I’m good with just a peek inside, for now. Seems a bit on the warm side in there.”

She looks him up and down, tilting her head.

“Is it not too warm for you?”

Eiji smiled at the girl before him, stepping out of her way so she could get a better view of the kitchen. As she looked around, he took his handkerchief out of his suit pocket and toyed with it. Would it be odd to dab at his forehead when this was a simulation?

“Ah, it’s actually a bit too hot for me,” he admitted. “I was just curious about how kitchens here worked, which was why I stuck around to begin with. Ahaha, it’s good we’re not medieval servants, isn’t it?”

With that remark, he slipped past her and out of the room. A sigh of relief escaped him as soon as he left the sweltering kitchen. The change in temperature was welcomed, as was the better ventilation. He returned his handkerchief to his pocket and turned back to the girl.

“Did you need something from the kitchen though?” he asked. “I can fetch it for you if you so wish, since I doubt you’d last long in there with your sweater. It’s pretty hot-- oh, is that presumptuous? It’s up to you! Otherwise, I should probably go find Kubota-dono. Oh, but before I do… is it alright to ask your name?”

It took Yuki a second to react—she was a little surprised she hadn’t just plowed straight into the guy.

“Oh… Don’t worry about it. I’m just wandering around…”

She looked over his shoulder briefly before glancing back at his face. Pretty cute.

“A kitchen? Anything exciting, Mr. …?”

The first thing Eiji noticed about the girl was her long red hair, the second thing being the large circles under her eyes. He stared awkwardly at her as she asked him his name, responding after an oddly long period of silence.

“Your eyes…” was all he said.

It was obvious he favored talking about her blemishes to introducing himself. He surged forward, leaning in close to her and studying her eyes. And after a few short seconds, he piped up again.

“Ah, have you tried moisturizing? Or perhaps eating more fruit? I’m sure you’ve gotten the lack of sleep talk already, but I assure you there are other ways to go about hiding your dark circles. In fact, stress as a whole has more of an effect than sleep on how visible they are,” he said, clearly rambling. “Please allow me to help you relieve stress! I-- oh no.”

He took a step back, turning red in the face.

“Oh no, I’m terribly sorry! I overstepped my boundaries there, didn’t I? Ahaha… My apologies. I’m Ebina Eiji, Super High School Level Butler.”

He bowed.

“I’m sorry again for being so brazen! I just think your eyes would look much nicer if accentuated with pink blush and not eye bags. Ahaha, sorry… Um, so is it okay if I know your name?”

[asyourservant-blog]

Technology is Amazing || Prologue || Kei

After some time had passed and there was no sign of Kei, Eiji began to worry. What if Kei needed him and he wasn’t at his side? Maybe wandering around without looking for him first and foremost hadn’t been a good idea. After all, there was no telling what Kei could want, and if he wasn’t there to deliver… well, that’d be bad. He didn’t want to let him down!

That being said, Eiji had a vague suspicion it wouldn’t be that hard to find Kei. He most likely wouldn’t be in the kitchen or the stables -- he never saw him in such slovenly places. Nor would he go looking for him in the prison tower.

Instead he followed his instinct and went looking for him in the most grandiose place he had discovered so far -- the throne room. He entered quietly and immediately spotted his master.

“Kubota-dono!” he called, hurrying over. His cheeks were red as he bowed, and he was unsure as to why.

“My apologies for being so late,” he said a moment later, straightening up. “This place is so pretty, isn’t it? Oh, um, but you’re pretty too! It captures how cute you are perfectly.”

After a moment’s hesitation, he reached out and touched Kei’s cheek gently. It was soft and warm, as if he was touching Kei’s real face. He pulled his hand away, shocked.

“It’s so real… Ah, Kubota-dono, isn’t it amazing? Your cheek is as soft here as it is in reality too!”

[asyourservant-blog]

Is It Hot In Here Or--? || Prologue || Open

The first thing Eiji noticed about being in a videogame -- or wait! VR, was it? -- was that it felt so normal. Truth be told, he had expected something more anime to happen. While the setting itself was rather grand (what an old castle!), there was much to be desired -- though he’d never admit that! He was in no place to complain, was he?

He mentally scolded himself for being disappointed there was nothing extraordinary happening and focused on exploring. Maybe it wasn’t the greatest idea to abandon Kei so early on, but the place didn’t seem that big. Surely they’d bump into each other eventually.

One of the first places Eiji ventured to was the kitchen. He was immediately taken aback by how hot it was. Didn’t servants used to frequent these places? He didn’t know much about medieval history, but surely royalty didn’t make their own pancakes! For once he was thankful for how chilly the Kubota residence kitchens could be.

Apart from the size of the kitchen, he wasn’t sure where else to look. He opened the door to leave, blinking in surprise to see someone just about to walk in.

“Oh!” he said quickly, bowing automatically and beckoning them forward. “Please, after you!”

Error 404 || Pregame || Ecaterina

[asyourservant-blog]

silken-silence:

Ecaterina was humming happily to herself, heels clicking and clacking quietly against the floor of Hope’s Peak academy as she prowled about, on the search for more interesting people to meet and greet! She had met a few new people already on her winding path around the campus, and now it was looking like the next place she was going, was to the a/v lab. She hadn’t been there in awhile, perhaps someone new was there, practicing their talents? The idea amused her, and she pushed the door open, still carrying that grandiose tune she had been humming through the halls.

She was met with the sight of a rather fancily dressed boy who looked a little nervous, already addressing her as she entered. In fact, nobody else was around, which Ecaterina thought was a little strange, usually there would be at least a few students in every room!

“Hello there!~” She said cheerfully, stepping inside and walking over in a manner that betrayed every intention she had to address him personally.

“How are you doing? You look a little flustered.” Here was this girl, in a fancy dress, with a hood on none the less, addressing this boy like she was trying to pry information out of him.

“I don’t think I’ve seen you around before! My name is Ecaterina Sheinberg, nice to meet you.~”

After taking a couple seconds to calm his nerves, Eiji noticed just how strangely dressed the girl before him was. The dress was rather fancy, but the cloak she wore was rather odd. All the students he ran into so far were dressed in rather unique clothing, though he supposed self-expression was important. At least she seemed to adhere to a certain aesthetic, however strange it may be.

He glanced over his shoulder to ensure the monitor was still off (which it was) before smiling hesitantly at the girl.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, She-- Sheinu-- Sheinberg-san. Ah, my apologies for not getting your name correctly!” he said. He dipped his head, his cheeks red. His English needed some work, especially when it came to pronunciation. And her name was definitely not Japanese. “I’m Ebina Eiji, Super High School Level Butler. I unfortunately haven’t seen you before either, but I hope we can be friends.”

Unfortunately, he then figured it’d be rude to avoid her questions -- however intrusive they may be. So he gestured for her to come closer, before slowly turning to face the computer. He pressed the ‘on’ button and the screen lit up. Indeed, what lay before him was a browser window completely in English.

“I’m unsure how to return it to Japanese. I’ve never been the best at technology, you see, and even the keyboard’s in English now. Do you know how to fix it, Sheinbear-- Sheinberg-san? You seem like a foreigner, based on your outfit and name, so perhaps you know… Mm, sorry if I’m being presumptuous.”

Shoujo Receipts || Pregame || Kae

Much to Eiji’s surprise, the library at Hope’s Peak was much busier than the one at his old school. He guessed it made sense, given how this was a top tier educational institution… But at the same time, was it really more of a social hub than a place to study?

Not that he was here to study anyway. No, instead he was off in the corner of the library, scouring the shelves for something. He’d been too sheepish to ask the librarian where the book he was looking for was, which resulted in him wandering around the library for the past half an hour. It was worth it, though. There was no way he could’ve asked the librarian where…

“Ah, found it!” he said, smiling to himself.

He knelt down and plucked a book off the shelf. It had taken him awhile to find the manga section (so long he had began to doubt its existence), and even longer to find the shoujo romance shelves. The book he had been looking for in particular was an omnibus of manga published by one of his favorite artists. It had been sold out at all the bookstores he went to, and he hadn’t dared order it online for fear of Kei finding out. But now he’d found it! and could--

He squeaked when someone’s shadow fell over him. He looked up from where he was kneeling on the floor and was met with the face of somebody with bright blue hair. And while this particular blue-haired person wasn’t Kei, he was still startled to have been caught red-handed.

As he struggled to shove the manga back into place like he hadn’t just been fawning over it, he spoke up. “Ah, hello. My apologies, am I in your way? I was just straightening up the shelf here, you see, um--”

And right as he said that, several books on the shelf he was trying to force the omnibus back onto dropped to the floor, causing a series of loud thuds to echo throughout that particular row of the library.

The chatter of students going about their days drifted in through the door of the audio/visual lab, which was deserted save for one person. Inside the room, a prim young man sat facing a computer. His gloved hands were resting on top of the keyboard, poised to type. That being said, the boy -- Eiji Ebina -- had a dumbfounded look on his face. The entire screen was a mess of English letters he couldn’t make heads or tails of.

“Um…” Eiji murmured, trying to quell his twinges of panic. His eyes were wide as he gently tapped bopped the top of the monitor, as if that’d switch things back to normal.

All it had taken was one press of a button and now everything was in a foreign language. What’s worse, he had no idea how to get it back to Japanese. Whenever he tried to type something, the letters wouldn’t switch to kana.

He was stuck.

But still, what if it was broken now? He didn’t want anyone getting mad at him. He bit his bottom lip as he tried to navigate the strange system. At the sudden sound of the door sliding open, he fumbled to turn off the computer screen. After a few seconds of clumsiness, the monitor went dark.

Eiji breathed a sigh of relief before turning in his chair to face the newcomer. “Ah, hello,” he said, smiling nervously. “Is there something I may be able to assist you with?”
