[Hayate knew that something was wrong the moment he woke up on some sort of wood flooring, feeling incredibly groggy. He figured he may have just overslept (past his usual one to three hours a night) and somehow fallen off of his bed. Even that is pretty peculiar though. Now isn't the time to lay around and ponder about it though; he needs to go make breakfast! If he really did oversleep this much, then Nagi and all of the others in the Violet mansion must already be up and... no, no this is not good. Hayate feels so irresponsible right now ugh. Once he pushes himself up and onto his feet, he suddenly feels a bunch of hanging fabric surrounding him. Clothes, maybe? Regardless of what they are though, this is still really confusing and just as weird. It's when he moves his a arms around to feel his surroundings that he discovers where exactly he is.

How the hell did he manage to get inside of a closet?

Well. Again, no time for pondering! Except closets and wardrobes obviously aren't meant to open from the inside, which poses a bit of a problem.

...Which is why Mikado and Aoba just may hear a large crashing sound from one of their bedrooms.]

[Open to all!]

[Anyone walking around in community building 7, the plaza, or possibly anywhere else in the village may come across a walking box. Inside this walking box is the feminine-looking Hayate, wearing the girls' new feather dress, no less. Absolutely no one must see him in a dress, nope...

It's rather hard to see where he's going (even with a small opening in the box), so he just may get lost on his way to the clothing store and end up anywhere around the village..! Or he may bump into you. Which, in that case, one may hear shouting from inside of the mysterious box-]

U-uwaaaaaaaah! I'm sorry, please excuse me!

Comments

[fellpool]

It can't be that bad. [And then, in a scandalized tone.] Are you naked or something?

crying

[whimsicalwinds]

[...What.] W-whaa...?! N-no! Absolutely not! I just implied that I was wearing something, didn't I?!

[He half wonders which would be more embarrassing though..]

/makes it worse

[fellpool]

You could have implied what you're not wearing, too.

[And so he nudges the box again.]

You would be better off hiding your face with the box and not your whole body, if it's just what you're wearing.

[whimsicalwinds]

That doesn't make much sense! -- U-uwaaah! S-stop that!

A-and I guess that would have been a more logical approach... But it's too late for that now!

[So he'll just continue staying under his box, thank you very much. ..Which, by the way, is starting to tip over thanks to Leon's rude nudging.]

[fellpool]

[He will kindly stop nudging the box. For now.]

How is it too late?

[whimsicalwinds]

[Good.] ...Because it just is.

[Hello my name is Hayate Ayasaki and I am a very logical young man! He's considering standing up and keeping this box over his head though, since it is a good idea... Maybe...]

[fellpool]

[Hello my name is Leon Damn Straight Geeste and that's not good enough.]

That's the lamest excuse I've heard in a long time.

[whimsicalwinds]

[What happened to Dango Starfish, huh..?!]

Well.. You've already heard my voice! So if I stood up, then you would see it.

[It being the dress. It's perfectly logical..! Kinda. ...of course, Hayate doesn't exactly have the most masculine voice and plenty of people have already thought he was a girl even without him faking a girl's voice, but... he gets the feeling that this critic guy is not that stupid! So revealing the sundress is a no no.]

[fellpool]

[Dango Starfish was last week...!]

Your voice is muffled by the box.

[Not really, but if it'll stop this silly display...]

[whimsicalwinds]

[So he's a traitor...!

Before Hayate starts to stand up, he needs to make sure that Leon's words are true. Because he honestly isn't sure whether or not he can trust him.]

...Are you sure?

[fellpool]

Does it matter? It's not like I recognize your voice as it is.

[He even huffs a little. So cautious, box-person!]

[whimsicalwinds]

[That doesn't answer his question at all! But that is a good point (he guesses...), so slowly and unwillingly, Hayate stands up, making sure that his beloved box doesn't fall off his head in the process.]

T-there...

[fellpool]

[...Well. Leon is at least glad to see box-person isn't tall; that'd just be awkward.

Not that seeing that New Feather dress isn't awkward.]

Oh. You're a New Feather.

[whimsicalwinds]

[Awkward is an understatement. Or at least, it is to Hayate right now... Ugh.

The box head nods.] Yes, that's correct... [...] Do... do all New Feathers get dumped here in dresses?

[fellpool]

[He glances at the dress before trying (or trying to focus) on the box head.]

No. Guys usually appear with just pants. Sometimes the Malnosso are nice and give New Feathers their clothes when they show up.

[whimsicalwinds]

[If only Hayate knew that Leon actually had to try to focus on the box...]

I guess that means that these Malnosso don't like me very much. [Or they think he's actually a girl, which better not be the reason or he'll have to politely correct them somehow.]

--A-ah, actually... If you're not busy, do you think you could do me a favor?

[fellpool]

Maybe. I haven't heard of anyone else showing up in a dress when they shouldn't. [He crosses his arms for now, focusing adamantly on the box head.]

A favor?

[whimsicalwinds]

[...Considering Hayate's luck, this is only mildly surprising. Sob. But he nods, holding the box up with one hand so that it doesn't fall off.]

Yes, um... Could you please show me where the clothing store is? I'd like to find my clothes quickly before anybody else sees me like this... and it's kind of difficult to see through this hole.

[He tries to poke said hole with his free hand, but misses and instead prods the surface of the box beside it. ...point proven. 8|]

[fellpool]

[...]

Yeah, sure. You know, you could have made the hole a little bigger.

[But what is logic, right?]

[whimsicalwinds]

[...

Well.

WELL.]

You must be a very critical person... If I did that, nosy people would have been able to peek inside.

[fellpool]

[He's going to be nice and pretend he didn't hear that, Hayate.]

And seen your eyes. And maybe your mouth. [Let's step right up to that hole in the box, though.] You think people can't peek inside this hole?

[whimsicalwinds]

[He's just being honest...! He shakes his head though and gives Leon a thumbs up.]

They would be able to see much more than that if the hole was bigger. With this hole though, they should only be able to see my eyes [no they would see more, Hayate..], so I'm sure it's safe! [He's proud of his box cutting and deciding skills, thank you very much!]

[fellpool]

[Guess what, Hayate? Feline vision will prove you wrong...!]

Your hair and eyes are blue.

[That is all he's gonna say.]

[whimsicalwinds]

[...This isn't good...!]

..E-eh?! Are you sure? Maybe they're actually green! Green and blue are very similar, after all. It's too dark inside of this box to differentiate such close colors, anyway!

[fellpool]

No, they're blue. Your insistent denial pretty much confirms it.

[But he's going to walk away towards the clothing store. Can you see him leaving?]
