Some notes before you enjoy the next installment of Guide to Romancing the Maiden!

Note: Just think of these next 3 chapters as crackish fillers, okay? Why, you ask? Well, I sort of screwed up this Break/Oz drabble and so I have a feeling the same thing may also happen with the Sharon/Alice drabble and the Gil/OC after it. Perhaps I am not meant to write serous scenes when it involves the PH gang? It's very difficult, that much is certain.

Disclaimer: I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts, all in a row. Some big, some small, some even as big as your skull! (Paraphrasing is a type of disclaimer! XD)

And with that, enjoy!

Omake #1

Be as perceptive, considerate and gentlemanly to the other party as possible, and at all times. This action cannot be rushed, and, in fact, is to be done in three different phases.

(Phase 1. Be relaxed at all times when with the other party; be sure that both yourself and your target are enjoying themselves. Do not be afraid to open up or leave the "comfort zone."

"Well, it's settled. Alice and I will collect the food rations while Oz and Break take care of the paperwork. Gilbert and Honoka will select and rent a place to stay. Meanwhile, everyone should try gathering information in their respective areas."

To be honest the aristocrat was indeed not as capable of working with Alice as Oz was, but saw no reason to be the one to do the paperwork when she could easily push it onto her servant. When everyone thought about it, the two gentlemen were both very qualified and quite competent to complete the job of sorting out and going through the different papers, anyway.

"Oz-kun, it seems this stack is all papers requiring a signature from a member of both Pandora and one of nobility. I am guessing the ones over there only require the signature of someone whom is only a member of Pandora, yes?"

The blonde boy checked the fine print of three of the documents before sending a nod of confirmation over in the albino man's direction. "You're right, it does. In that case, we should switch."

Both parties calmly and silently traded room sides and carried on with the job, both relieved that half of the job to the paperwork pat of their mission was now over. All that needed be done now was for each document to be scanned, which led to the ultimate phase, approving/confirmation or disapproving/cancellation.

There was merely one small element they were lacking, which began to show itself in record time.

"So boriiing…"

"I want to eat caaake…"

"Is there no end to this paperwork? I think the pile just got larger. Magic; that has to be it. Chains and the Abyss exist, so why not magic and warlocks?"

"I need to eat caaake… Mont Blanc… Red Velvet… Battenberg… Chiffon… Streusel… Tiramisu… Tres Leche… Mascarapone… even petit fours would do right now…"

"Whooosh~!" He waved his writing quill around like a wand, uttering off-the-wall phrases such as 'remove this barrier on the documents' or 'now sign yourselves!'

Break wasn't faring any better, sadly. "I… I can see them. I can see them all!"

"Begone, you troll!" he said to Break, whom had currently been looking around the room with childish glee, until a realization descended upon him. "What to eat them with?" He frowned. "No forks in sight." The albino man reached out and grabbed empty air, shoveling it into his face with an audible "omnomnom." Oz shrieked in horror. "Stop eating the faeries! What did they ever do to you?"

"No good~ I'm getting icing all over my sleeves without a fork. Aren't there any nearby?" Break began to look around the room, eye wandering hopelessly until it landed on the writing quill in Oz's hand. His face lit up as he ran joyfully over to Oz, who at the same time ran towards him with a battle cry.

Five people opened the door and entered the room while the two remained unaware, playing out their respective fantasies.

"A fooork~!"

"Wingardiamere Leviosaaah!"

The run towards eachother was illogically in slow motion, a sight to which Reim face-palmed and Honoka sweat-dropped, while Elliot was left speechless and Leo stared apathetically at the scene. The fifth person in the room and, by far, the most fearsome, had been Sharon, who smiled sweetly whilst holding her Hakuren in her left hand. She was the first to speak up, her voice holding a tone of polite grace coupled with underlying venom. The other four broke out of their stupors and winced as two loud, obviously painful blows were delivered to the delusional duo.

"SNAP OUT OF IT! QUIT YOUR STALLING AND GET BACK TO WORK, IDIOTS!"

They now lay lifelessly on the floor, twitching every now and then. The two Nightray boys immediately made their way over to Break and Oz; definitely uncharacteristic of them, but right now they didn't want to anger the Rainesworth heiress. Meanwhile, Reim walked over to the stacks of documents and proceeded to sort through them.

They just needed someone to stand over them and make sure they actually did the work instead of resorting to insanity. Whether or not they feigned it with their infamously spectacular thespian abilities or really experienced it, not a soul would truly know the answer to that question.

"I'm certainly glad we stopped by before leaving. Reim, Leo, Elliot; you all can take it from here, yes? Good; let's be going, Honoka. I sincerely hope that nothing happened when Alice and Gilbert were left alon—" she stopped herself midsentence, realizing how thoughtless a statement she had made. Her eyes widened before she and Honoka ran out of the room and off to where they had left the gunman and the humanoid Chain.

An heiress' job was simply neverending. Especially when the straightening-out of this group was taken into consideration.

…..XXX…..

It seems that whenever I try to write Oz and Break interactions, they end up OOC. It turns into a crackfic of sorts, in other words. But right now, I'm sleep deprived, it's late, and I'm getting slaphappy, so that could have something to do with it. Though I kind of like it. I can picture them acting this way when faced with the kind of situation in which they don't have to buckle down and be serious, so they would resort to bending the rules of common sense and reality. Sanity as well, though that is a given since it's them. It made me laugh, so I hope that despite the seriousness I was trying to have in it, perhaps you might have enjoyed it and will appreciate the crackish humor in these omakes/filler chapters.
