    • Okay, you've got your umbrella. And your traveling pack. And seen Tiffania's panties.

    You should probably go find Saito. You turn back toward Tiffania. "I'm going to go look for Saito."

    Tiffania says something back to you, but you still don't speak Romalian. You raise your left hand to your brow, as if to shield your eyes from the sun, and make a searching motion with your head. "Saito," you say.

    She seems to get it and nods enthusiastically in understanding. A little too enthusiastically, and you fight to pull your eyes away from the jiggling motion.

    And so you set out. And very nearly step into the hole you just jumped out of. It occurs to you that if you don't want to get lost before you locate Saito, you should probably let Tiffania take the lead on this one. So you do.

    As you walk, Tiffania starts talking to you. Again, not speaking Romalian, you have no idea what she's saying. However, you decide to humor her and talk back.

    For the next hour or so, you converse with Tiffania. Although whether or not a conversation between two people who have no idea what the other is saying actually counts as a conversation could be debated, it's refreshing to talk to someone who has no chance of being Ranma in a wig or secretly out to get you. As the search wears on, you briefly consider talking about your Jusenkyo curse and your adoption as Akane's pet P-Chan, but ultimately decide not to. A decision you relish when you find Saito hiding in a closet about ten seconds later.

    "Ack!" he yelps as you open the door. However, when a violent beating doesn't follow, he looks around the room. "Louise isn't with you, is she?" You verify this, and Saito lets out a sigh of relief. "Thanks for stalling for time so I could escape, but could you seriously not think of a better way to do it? Now she's got a hammer instead of a riding crop..." Saito moans in frustration. You automatically open your mouth to correct his misunderstanding, but manage to change your mind before you actually say anything.

    Suddenly, Tiffania starts talking with Saito. What results is a conversation that you can understand exactly one side of.

    "Sure," says Saito. Tiffania says something in Romalian. "Eh? You didn't complete it already?" Tiffania responds. "Why not?" Tiffania... explains, you guess. You honestly can't tell anything other than that it involves a lot of words. "Okay, I can tell him for you." Tiffania says something else.

    Saito turns to face you. "What was that about?" you ask.

    "Tiffania wanted me to explain how you ended up here to you."

    "I already know how I got here," you reply.

    "You do?!" Saito asks, clearly surprised.

    "Yeah," you reply. "I stepped in a portal."

    Saito gives you a flat look. "I meant where the portal came from."

    "You know where they keep coming from?!" you ask.

    "Ye-keep coming from? You've gone through one before?"

    "Yeah," you reply. "Last time I ended up in the Digital World. It... kind of sucked."

    Saito clearly doesn't believe you. "Digimon is fictional."

    "Tell that to Devimon," you mutter.

    "Anyways," says Saito, either missing or ignoring your comment, "the reason that portal opened up is that you were summoned to Halkeginia to be a familiar spirit for Tiffania."

    "A familiar spirit?" you ask.

    "A familiar spirit," Saito replies.

    "What's so familiar about me? I've never been here before. ...I think."

    "Not that kind of familiar," Saito replies. "Like a mage's servant animal."

    "Oh," you reply. Internally you curse your Jusenkyo curse, Ranma, and your terrible sense of direction. And Ranma again, just for good measure. "So it's kind of like being a slave?" Despite your question, you perfectly maintain an outward calm. No you don't. Your fists are clenched so tightly that your knuckles are making an audible cracking noise.

    "More like being a cross between a pet and a bodyguard," Saito replies. "I'm actually Louise's familiar."

    'Well,' you think. 'That settles it. No way in he-'

    Tiffania is looking at you with the kindest, most innocent expression you've seen since the last time you were at the Tendo Dojo, and your vehement rejection dies before it makes its way out of your mouth. She says something.

    "She's asking if you'll be her familiar," Saito translates.

    You look back at those wide, innocent eyes. '...Goddammit.'

    [] Do it.

    [] No.
    -[] Justify it.
    --[] Jusenkyo curse?
    --[] Constantly lost?
    --[] Something else?

    [] Stall.
    -[] How?
    --[] "HEY LOUISE! I FOUND SAITO!"
    [] Nope. Gotta get back to the Tendo Dojo!

    Yeah, Ryouga doesn't seem too fond of the idea.

    [X] Stall.
    -[X] How?
    --[X] "HEY LOUISE! I FOUND SAITO!"
     
    Well...firstly: do we even want Ryouga to go back Ranmaverse?
    Secondly: If we want to stay - do we want to be a familiar?
    We're probably going to want to stay here, where it's all fun and shit. But to the familiar business: I'm going to have to say no. Mind control isn't good, no matter the 'benefits'.

    Especially since the only "benefit" that he'd get is the ability to be a willpower battery for Tiffania. I mean, I suppose that there's a chance that he could be capable of controlling it, since he already has the ability to manipulate his ki, but there's no guarantee, unless the GM gives us one.
     
    Randomly wander in, screw up their plots by adding another Gandalfr level fighter for a few scenes, then wander back out possibly with critical characters or items.
     
    Ryouga just needs to be convinced. If Tiff explains why they need him, he'd probably agree, as long as he gets that he's not a slave.
     
    [X] Stall.
    -[X] Ask Saito what the deal involves.
    -[X] You would gladly help her, but you won't become some kind of slave.
    -[X] Is that what the whip is about, or are you two just into stuff like that? You remember one of Ranma's crowd really liked the whip.
