Skit: The new invisible cloak just came in!
[Subaru]: "What is up! It is ya boy, 'Guy without Glasses,' and today, we are going to be pranking my roommate. He's gonna be coming through that door, but what he doesn't know," Subaru ruffles something under him, "is that I just got the new invisible cloak in the mail today!"
Suabru shows off his invisibility cloak at the camera. He's been planning this prank for a while and he can't wait to see how it goes. It's a magical world after all, and a magical world calls for magical pranks. He lies on the floor in wait for his unfortunate prey.
[Subaru]: "Alright, I think I heard the front door open. When he gets in here, imma pop outta nowhere and scare him."
Once the cloak is over his body, the room returns to its tranquil state, like he was never there to begin with.
[Felix]: "Oh no. Oh no. I forgot my wallet that whole time. Crusch is gonna be so myad at me nya~."
The half-cat hurriedly rushed through the manor in search of his coin pouch. He had promised that he was going to treat Crusch to something good to eat, but not having his wallet awkwardly made him look like he was avoiding responsibility.
Crusch would know that he wasn't lying, but he still felt kinda bad about it.
As he entered the room, he seemingly tripped over nothing at all!
[Felix]: "Uwaah!"
His momentum carrying over into his descent, Felix could do nothing but smash into a pile of bottles on the other side of the room. 1-liter bottles to be exact.
[Felix]: "blelblebbllulu!"
An undignified sound came from the demi-human's vocal cords. It was a good thing nobody else was there. Julius would've definitely made a comment about how "un-knightly" it sounded.
[Felix]: "What in the world was that?"
[Subaru]: "Ahh, bro you kicked me in my head."
Underneath the cloak, Subaru rubbed at his cranium, which had taken the brunt of the collision. Maybe he should have laid sideways instead of forwards like an idiot.
[Felix]: "It's a hollow! AahaHh! Begone!"
Arming himself with the bat that his Lady keeps under her desks in case of emergency, he swung down on the assailant.
[Subaru]: "Bwwah! Jiwaharg! No wait, Ferris it's me– OooWaah!"
[Felix]: "This is it for you! I've got something for you alright."
Once again, the bat was swung, in a perfect arc no less. He must've had practice.
You'd think that the easy solution would be to just emerge from the cloak, right? Well, there was a slight issue with that.
Subaru had known Ferris for quite a bit, and chances were that he was wearing a skirt right about now…
So his options were: unveil himself and get an eyeful of things he did not want to see, or take the beating…
Subaru chose the beating.
[Felix]: "Hiiyahhh~"
A hit to the side. Then one on the leg. Another to the shoulder. He was getting repeatedly combo-ed under that cloak, but he'd be damned if he chickened out now. How much worse could it get right?
Summoning his demi-human ancestral blood, Felix whacked the intruder with all the power his arms could muster.
[Subaru]: "Ghrk! AUAHAHahh~. Why do you have so much power!?"
[Felix]: "Not done yet, huh? Hiyyahh~"
The brown-haired knight kicked and kicked at the intruder below his feet. He even stepped on him for good measure.
Safe to say that the prank had completely flopped.
(Crusch did get her meal though. :D)
A/N: Just realized that invisibility cloaks canonically exist in the re:zero world thanks to arc 7, so that's cool to think about. Just picture Vincent mailed Subaru his.
Also, you might have to fact-check me on this, but I'm pretty sure ghosts are called 'hollows' in the re:zero -verse. What a neat detail.
