Wish ۞ 03

{Such a small inconvenience could never bother Yuuko. In fact, as the true businesswoman she is, she's come up with a solution. She's sitting on the back porch of her shop (not that 'back' is really applicable here) with a grin on her face, and she announces for everyone to hear. And because Yuuko is Ms. Fashionable and I must announce it each time, today she is wearing this ensemble.}

Bonjour des résidants du Plane Astral~ Nous avons un dérangement si étrange ici que j'ai pensé que je pourrais offrir une solution. Ainsi, pour tout le vous, je prends ces garnitures spéciales qui vous aideront à ne pas être perdu et vous pouvez éviter les problemes de traduction! Ah, mais j'ai seulement deux davantage, ainsi les deux premiers à payer obtenez ces derniers.

{Which she promptly writes on what looks like a pad of paper, turning it to face whoever might be watching. And lo and behold, the French letters she wrote down are shifting on the paper magically, rearranging the lines and letters to form a translation into whatever language the viewer speaks. For your benefit, we'll say English!
Attention residents of the Astral Plane~
I have a special offer in such a strange situation! You can have your very own pad like this, but I only have two more!
So, first come, first serve, of course.}

((ooc: literally: Hello residents of the Astral Plane~ We have such a strange inconvenience here that I thought I might offer a solution. So, for all of you, I have these special pads that will help you to not be lost and you can avoid the problems of translation! Oh, but I only have two more, so the first two to pay get these.
Also, I apologize for any errors. D:))

[And she's grinning.] How useful.

{Yuuko waits a moment, and suddenly Willow's English words appear on the pad. Yuuko turns it back to face her, and it's back to French.}

Ah, oui, n'est-il pas? J'ai pensé que ce serait une bonne chose à avoir pour voyagement, mais il est venu dans maniable dans une autre situation!

{Which she writes as she speaks, then flipping it back to Willow:
}

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Smart thinking. I think I may just ride this out though.

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

C'est intelligent pour tu aussi. Mais, c'est amusant, non?

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Extremely. I do think some people used it to play around with me when I arrived. Not that I can blame them; I probably would, too.

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

Ainsi vous êtes nouveau ici après tous? Bien, bienvenue! Je pense que c'est un endroit agréable. Je m'appelle Yuuko Ichihara~ Je suis désolé par ma langue~ {She chuckles}

[hexhax.livejournal.com]

Willow Rosenberg. A pleasure to meet you, Miss Ichihara. And no worries, I think it suits you. [She smiles.]

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

Ah, non~ Je préfère le japonais, honnêtement!

[theguv.livejournal.com]

[angry Gene is angry! and speaking in Japanese because he refuses to speak in Cat] Oi, give me one of those!

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

{She laughs} C'est bon, mais, vous devrez payer, monsieur~

{And with magic::
}

[theguv.livejournal.com]

I don't give a shit. Just give me the damn paper.

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

{She stands and opens the shoji screen to a room with two chairs and a small table. Yuuko walks in, motioning for Gene to follow and sit.}

Alors ayez un siège, s'il vous plaît. Nous pouvons discuter le prix dans le confort.

[theguv.livejournal.com]

[follows her in but doesn't sit, preferring to stand, arms crossed over his chest] Yeah? Let's get to it, then. How much?

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

Je ne prends pas l'argent. Pour ceci...votre voix. Je voudrais votre voix par deux semaines. Vous pouvez employer ceci, mais vous ne pourrez pas parler.



{She smiles}

[theguv.livejournal.com]

[quirks a brow] That's it? I can't bloody well speak for a couple days? Shit, sign me up. If that's all anyone had to pay for anything, being a copper wouldn't kick you so hard in the ass come bill time.

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

C'est merveilleux! Alors ici vous êtes, monsieur Hunt.

{How does she know your name. That's a mystery. But she stands and offers him one of the magical pads of paper}

[theguv.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Thanks. [takes it and stuffs it in his jacket before turning to leave]

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

{Yuuko smiles as she closes her fingers around a small object that looks like a marble. Yuuko doesn't open her mouth, but using the manifestation of Gene's voice, she says one last thing using Gene's voice...in cat. Because Gene had to be reminded of his favorite language.}

Just come back in two weeks, and I'll give this back~

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

[Cat!] Just like that?

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

Oui, c'est facile! Il traduira même des mots parlés.

{Which, just like before, comes out:
}

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

I meant, you'll give it to us just like that? No strings?

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

Ah, non~ Il y a un prix, naturellement.

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Figures. What kind?

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

Votre voix par deux semaines. {Smiles~}

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Pass. I love hearing myself talk.

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

Je peux comprendre cela ! Mais, si vous changez d'avis, je serai ici~

[soimpressive.livejournal.com]

Doubt it. But it's interesting that they haven't stopped you. How did you make this?

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

La magie, naturellement~ Je suis un sorcière, ou, c'est ce qui un certain appel moi.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[Have a tired-looking Misaki.] How much are they?

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

Je ne prends pas l'argent. Je prendrai votre voix par deux semaines, oui?

{And like magic:

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[She considers this in silence for a moment, and then nods.] Very well.

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

{She picks up her last one and holds it out for Misaki} Une fois que vous prenez ceci, votre voix sera-t-elle la mienne, bien? Retournez juste en deux semaines pour qu'elle soit retournée.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

[She considers this for a moment as well.] Will you charge me to get my voice back? Force me to trade something else?

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

Je ne suis pas ce genre de sorcière.

[chasingstars201.livejournal.com]

Very well then. [She takes the notepad]

[unmakase.livejournal.com]

{And just like that, her voice is gone. However, a small object akin to a marble appears in Yuuko's hand. And she switches to Russian because I am Frenched out, but it appears on the pad Yuuko is holding all the same.} Wonderful~ Enjoy it! The charm will start wearing off after two weeks, so I would discard it once you get your voice back.
