Phone:

To anyone who knew Yagyuu Hiroshi... he's gone. [ And you might hear the shaky exhale of breath before he hangs up. ]

Action for 1249 Williams Road:

[ Surely his housemates have gotten used to his disruptive behavior. It's different this time, though. Loud noises can be heard from the kitchen. The sounds of glass braking and things being thrown against the walls. He's shouting, but he's not forming words. Just angry bursts of noise every so often. Once he finally tires himself out and stops sweeping his arm across the counters, he falls into a chair. Now he's just very, very quiet, staring blankly at the table in front of him.

A. Action for household:
[ Don't be surprised if you hear noises from the kitchen! Niou's in there, and it appears that he's baking a cake. Or trying to, anyway. He's really not the best cook when it comes to things that aren't microwaveable foods. He's not a very neat cook, either. There are ingredients lying all over the place, empty bowls piled in the sink and broken egg shells on the counter. He's humming softly under his breath and seems to be in a surprisingly cheerful mood, even though his cat keeps winding around his feet and tripping him up. ]

B. Phone | Filtered to Yagyuu:

Hey Yeaaaaaaahgyuu~. You haven't forgotten what today is, have you? [ If you've forgotten your best friend's birthday, he won't be very happy. ]

Action for 1249 Williams Road:
[ Upon walking into the kitchen, one will find Niou as far away from the table as possible. He has his cat in his arms, almost protectively, and he's glaring at the turkey on the table. There is no way in hell he's going near that thing, let alone eating it. ]

Phone:
... This is stupid. I'm not even American. I'm fuckin' Japanese for christ's sake. [ A short pause. ] Leave it to fuckin' America to have a holiday where you gorge yourself with as much food as you possibly can without explodin'.

Action | Locked to 1249 Williams Road:

[ Sorry, household, if you're awoken by yet again by Niou's swearing. This time is different than the others, though! Instead of swearing in anger over something, he's swearing in joy! ... It might be hard to tell the difference, though. If you go to check on him in the living room, you'll find him laying on the floor holding a distraught looking cat to his chest. ]

Phone:

Yanno, these apology packages that Mayfield sends out after they do crazy shit to us are almost worth the trouble we're put through.

A. Phone: Mantises, and ants, and crabs, oh my! [ Heavy hints of sarcasm here. ] And aliens, and man-eating jello, and thirty foot giants, and one inch midgets, and people dying, and vampire-zombie-things. [ And now his voice is blank. ] This just keeps gettin' better and better. I think I'll do that thing where I stay in the house all day and avoid the bullshit. Unless anyone important needs savin'. Speak now or forever hold your peace.

B. Phone | Private to Yagyuu Hiroshi:

... Yagyuu?

[ If you've gone off and died and became one of those creepy zombie-vampire things, you're going to have a lot of explaining to do. ]

C. Action | All around Mayfield:

[ Oh, look, he lied. He's not staying in the house all day. They say that curiosity killed the cat, but this cat still has nine lives (somehow). This curiosity has gotten the better of him, and now he's outside wandering around. ]

Action: School

[ When Niou is cheerful, it usually means he just found new blackmail material on somebody or he's just pulled an amazing prank. But that's not the case today! He can be found walking down the hallway, whistling cheerfully, or sitting at his usual lunch table, having pleasant conversations with people. Whatever the case, when you walk by, he greets you in a chirpy voice. ]

Hey there!

Action | After school | John Doe Park

[ Usually, when Niou's found at the park, he's up to no good. Common examples are crossdressing and harassing anyone who happens to pass by. This time, though, Niou is minding his own business. He's sitting on his favorite bench with a stack of papers beside him. Most of the papers have complicated equations scribbled on them. He has his math textbook and more paper in his lap.

His finished math homework sits on the other side of him, and now he's just doing extra equations for fun.

Feel free to stop by and see what he's doing. He might even offer to help you with your own math, if he's feeling generous. ]

Action | Just after school | Rec center

[ Between keeping up with school, trying not to get bitten by zombies, fighting the zombies, and Marui being permanently droned, Niou really hasn't had much time to relax. But the moment he gets it, he decides to go straight to the tennis courts. Tennis really is relaxing for him, especially when it's just a rally against the wall.

Despite the fact that he's tired as fuck, he'll keep up his usual snark and wit if you talk to him. ]

Phone | Afternoon | Filtered to Marui Bunta

So, Marui. About this tennis shit. I think it's time to launch into Plan B. Bring out the troops full force. Whataya think?

A. Action | Mid-day | John Doe Park

[ Niou's been in Mayfield for exactly two months today. He's done decided that it's time to bust out some pranks. He's been keeping himself busy, but now he has some downtime, and he plans on spending it well.

He can be found in the park, sitting on the bench and reading a fairly thick book. Only here's the catch: Niou doesn't look like Niou. Instead of his disheveled bleached white hair, he has perfectly groomed brown hair, parted very neatly to one side, and much shorter. His beauty mark is gone, he's wearing a pair of wire-framed glasses, and his expression is very neutral. His sitting up ram-rod straight with one leg crossed over the other.

In short, he looks like a completely different person, and will introduce himself with a different name. Yagyuu Hiroshi. He'll smile politely and offer up a nice hello as you pass. Even his voice is different, carrying lower tones and enunciated words. ]

Action: John Doe Park

[ Niou just got his wardrobe back, and he's breaking out the snazzy part of it. He's wearing a pinstripe pants and vest combo paired with a red silk shirt that has the sleeves rolled up to his elbows. A black tie is drawn around his neck and tucked neatly into the front of his vest. A black fedora with a red ribbon around the base tipped over his eyes pulls the whole look together.

He's got a certain swagger to his walk that could be perceived as either arrogance or happiness. Either way, it's clear that he's in a better mood than he has been recently.

He'll be approaching and striking up conversations with anyone he decides looks interesting. He'll also be happy with people striking up conversations with him.

Be prepared for a snarky wit and endless charm. ]

A. Action | Early Morning | 1249 Williams Road

[ Until today, Niou had not once touched that damn milk. He'd heard everything about it, and he had no desire to go anywhere near it. He wasn't stupid, after all, or that much of a dare devil. But this particular morning, when he wakes up, he feels like drinking the milk is a spectacular idea.

So he does!

The household may wake up to the sound of breaking glass and metal clinking against the sink. That would be Niou dropping the milk and spitting razor blades out of his mouth. They've cut the inside of his mouth and the back of his throat up pretty badly, but thankfully, he hasn't swallowed any. He will spend the next several minutes just spitting and bleeding into the sink, though.

Any help from his housemates is greatly appreciated, although he will not be talking. At all. ]

B. Action | Midday | Around town

[ Niou is wandering around town after his razor blade disaster. Probably a stupid idea since there's killing drones running loose, but he had to get out of that house. If you talk to him, he probably won't respond. He will mime out everything he wants to say. Either that, or he'll flip you off and ignore you. It's pretty damn obvious that he is not in a good mood. ]

C. Action | Afternoon | John Doe Park

[ Niou eventually settles on staying in the park. That's where he is now, laying sprawled out on a bench on his back. He's tossing a tennis ball up in the air and catching it again.

He still won't talk to you, considering his mouth hurts like hell, and it's probably a nasty sight anyway. He'll be more willing to actually respond in gestures, though, and less likely to flip you the bird. He seems to be in a much better mood than before. ]

Phone, filtered from drones:

[ Niou is homesick. And only someone who knows him well would be able to pick out the traces of sadness in his voice. Otherwise, he sounds asinine and cocky as usual. ]

God damn. Been here a whole month and I'm still partyin' hard. Gotta admit, this place never gets old.

Anyway, here's a couple of questions. What're your thoughts on fourteen year-olds with guns, and is there anyone who's givin' lessons?

Action: Outside 1249 Williams Road

[ Niou steps out the front door just to trip over a package lying there. He trips, letting out a couple of swear words, and looks around quickly to see if anyone saw him. ]

Who the fuck-

[ He stops his angry question when he actually looks down to see what he tripped over. It's a package, and the shape of it is very, very familiar. He bends down to pick it up, turning it over in his hands. Could this be...? Tearing off the paper, he discovers that yes, it is! It's his tennis racket.

Seconds later, he's heading down the sidewalk and towards the rec center. If he remembers correctly, they have tennis courts. ]

Action: Rec center tennis courts

[ The dull sounds of tennis balls thumping against a racket and the courts are accompanied by the occasional grunt. Niou is serving balls hard over the net. He's easily fallen into a familiar rhythm, and it might take a bit to catch his attention as he's in the zone. ]

[ Phone; public. ]

I've been sittin' on the phone for no more than an hour and I've heard more people say "I have a secret" and "There's somethin' I wanna get off my chest" here than I have at girls' sleepovers. And I've heard a lot of shit at a lot of girls' sleepovers. It's like the whole damn town is playin' Truth or Dare, and nobody's fuckin' pickin' Dare. Which makes all of you pussies, by the way. Pickin' Dare is totally the best part of Truth or Dare. All of you suck.

[ Action for 1249 Williams Road. ]

[ Niou likes sleeping in, and waking him up before he's ready will make him grouchy and grumpy, and you'll probably regret doing it. Unfortunately for him and everyone around him, he isn't able to sleep in this morning, because there's sunlight seeping through his windows.

This is his first clue that something's not quite right. His room his black curtains so that the sunlight can't get through.

He sits up and blinks. And then does it again for good measure. After the initial "these aren't my clothes", "this isn't my room", and "where the fuck am I?"s, he decides he's going to play this totally cool. Yeah, he totally wakes up in strange places every day, and being in the 50's is totally cool with him. No biggie.

So he goes to explore the rest of this house that isn't fucking his. ]

[ Phone: ]

Holy fuck, it's been so long since I last watched Grease that I forgot how people dressed back then. I seriously need t'get my hands on a leather jacket. I'll go all John Travolta on your asses. Slicked back hair and everything. [ A short pause. ] Fuck. I don't suppose there's any place around here where I can get hair bleach, is there?

CANONMATES
Taki Haginosuke: Niou doesn't hate Taki. He can actually tolerate Taki and hold a conversation with him without wanting to punch him in the teeth. But wow, Taki is really gay. Really, really gay. He's also a rival, which isn't something Niou's likely to forget.	Echizen Ryoma: He really hates Echizen. Like, really hates. He thinks the kid is a snot-nosed cheating brat, and he wants to hit him in the face with a tennis ball. On the other hand, Echizen has a really cute cat and Niou likes really cute cat. But he only likes Echizen's cat. Not Echizen.
HOUSEMATES
Harley Quinn: Niou thinks his Not!Mom is pretty cool, to be honest. Not that he'll ever admit it, but hey. She likes pranks, she's not overbearing, and she only really bothers him when he needs her to. He doesn't know her well enough to call her a friend, but a friendly acquaintance? Totally.	Jolt: Niou's talked to Jolt all of once since arriving. First impressions being the only thing to go on, he doesn't hate him. Scared the living fuck out of him at first, because holy shit a talking car, but he quickly adjusted to the idea.
OTHERS
Belphegor: Out of all the people currently in Mayfield, Bel is the most important person to Niou. They went from being friends, to flirting, to making out a lot, and eventually they started dating. It's been an exciting whirlwind of chaotic and unpredictable fun, and Niou loves it. Madoka Kaname: Madoka is someone Niou wouldn't have looked twice at, if they hadn't been locked in the bowling alley together. She's a sweetheart, and Niou worries about her like he's her big brother or something. She's good for his morals, makes him think twice about doing the really bad things. The first guy to make her cry is getting punched in the face. Byakuran: Niou would rather spend his time around Echizen than Byakuran. And that's sayin' something. He's met the guy once, and that's all it took. Especially after the bastard kissed Bel. Niou punched him in the face, and would do it again, given half the chance. All the hate, all of it.	Okumura Rin: Niou met Rin when Rin first arrived, and was basically an asshole to him from the start. It's no wonder why Rin hates him. Niou likes bugging him and pissing him off, and a lot of the time, their arguments escalate to violence. He's been perma-droned. Calleo Crowe: Niou doesn't know Crowe very well, but he seems like a nice enough guy. They've played tennis together a couple of times, and Crowe didn't suck to bad. Fran: Okay, so he can tolerate Fran more than he can tolerate Echizen. And to be fair, it was because of Fran's annoying ability to see through things that he and Bel ended up getting together. But the guy's still annoying.
