Pairing: Developing Yuhi x Chupataro.
Summary:
There are some forms of alien activity even MIK turns a blind eye to. The truly alien activity between Chupataro and Ohdo Yuhi, for instance.
Chapter 132: You Are Miss Mutton
Knock! Knock!
"Chu…chupa?"
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Yes, coming, chupa!" Chupataro crawled up into the cockpit of his robot, yawning once he'd sealed the chest compartment and rotated himself so his head wasn't screwed on backwards.
He hadn't taken out the garbage in a while (understatement). There were enough bags to make it difficult to move around inside, and grossly, their close proximity to each other yielded warmth in place of the heating that needed to be fixed.
"Yes, yes. Who might you be, chupa?"
He must be in woolly wonderland! Because was that who he thought it was?
The Meeeg-chan poster on his door was pushed…and there was Meeeg-chan! The real Meeeg-chan!
"Sorry for droppin' in all of a sudden, but wouldja be willin' to hire me on as your personal Meeeg-chan?"
"P-personal Meeeg-chan, chupa?"
After his misty eyes cleared and he could nitpick the small inconsistences, it was apparent this wasn't the real Magical Sheep Girl Meeeg-chan he was looking at here. The cosplayer was cute as a button and the differences were only noticeable to a hardcore Meeeg-chan maniac though, and Chupataro invited him in.
Yes. Him. Him hadn't stopped Chupataro before.
Out of the blue one day, Meeeg-chan showed up to work, chupa.
Before they proceeded any further, Chupataro interviewed the applicant.
"Can you answer some basic questions, chupa?"
"Meeeh…"
"Meeeg-chan's sheepdog is called?"
"Shoruta."
"Meeeg-chan's favourite snacks are?"
"Delicious paper and important letters."
"Please sing Meeeg-chan's melody, chupa."
"Mememelody! Mememelody! Mememelody! Cattle Meetimeetion! Capturing the hearts of livestock! Shaving the wool around their souls! Magical Sheep Girl Meeeg-chan!"
The song was good, but the cosplayer's twirling in the cramped confines of his trash-filled room made Chupataro realize how little space he had.
Plus, finances were tight.
"This probably isn't what you were hoping to hear, chupa. But Chupa can't hire you, cabra."
"I see. I apologize for troublin' you."
What are you apologizing for, chupa? It's obvious you're the one in some kind of trouble, chupa!
He bowed and thanked Chupataro for his time, then took his leave.
Out of the blue one day, Meeeg-chan appeared to Chupataro in his apartment.
Did he dream all that?
…
"CHUPA! Meeeg-chan! You forgot this, chupa!"
It didn't come to mind where he lost his two-of-a-kind "J for Jointech" coin. He was too saddened by not getting the job to go back and look for it.
Chupataro followed to return it. So busy running, he wasn't paying attention to oncoming traffic in the road.
"BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!" Zeyet honked while honking the Truckroid's horn.
Was Chupataro on a one-way trip to the Isekai Convention?
Before the truck's grille connected, the cosplayer leapt into action, propelling himself at Chupataro and knocking both of them (Chupataro's robot included) just beyond the fringes of the bumper.
"Chupachupachupa –! …Cabra!"
This all seemed bizarrely repetitive.
Meeeg-chan's Earthdama-powered attack cleaved through Jointech Rex and spun towards –
Chupataro jettisoned from his robot, propelling himself at –
Towards and at who?
This was all turned around.
"Watch where you're going! Osu!" The Vehicroid driver kept on driving.
"Meeeg…chan?"
"Are ya okay? Are ya alive?"
"Th-thank you, chupa."
"I'm sorry. I've never saved someone's life like this before, and…M-my heart won't stop poundin'."
"Chu. Here, you left this behind, chupa." Chupataro gave him the coin.
A coin.
Coins?
"Oyo? Whatcha doin' on the floor? I dug out ALL the coins earlier!"
Weren't they forgetting somebody?
Chupataro didn't come out of nearly being pancaked by ten tons of steel without the shock to show for it.
Why were trucks so mean?
His head hurt.
"Do you want to rest your head on my lap?"
"No! No, no, no, no, no! Chupa is an ordinary chupacabra who understands public order and morals, cabra!"
"If that is all then, thank you. I will be going." He bowed and began to leave again.
"Meeeg-chan! Chupa's actually been looking for someone to help with the cleaning, chupa. Can Chupa ask for your assistance, cabra?"
A housekeeper?
"If I could do the housework, you'd hire me?"
"Chupa! Chupa will even accommodate your food, chupa! Meals for Chupa and Meee – Come to think of it…What is your real name, chupa?"
"My name…Oh, that's weird. What was it?"
"You don't remember your own name, chupa?"
Let the living be sealed into light…
"I'm Yu –"
…and the dead rise from darkness!
"No. Was that it?"
"Otes…What a great name!"
"Until now, I've had my employer call me whatever they wish to call me."
"Well, if it's okay, Chupa will stick with calling you Meeeg-chan for now, cabra."
"My name…My name…No, my name's…"
"I knew you'd come. You, who are all on the road of new Duels."
"I want to be your Meeeg-chan."
"Chupa?"
Two people were taking turns talking through Meeeg-chan. Related to the "trouble" Chupataro sensed his rescuer was in?
"I want to be your…"
"Is there someone who told you not to say your name, chupa? Chupa will chupa the guy for you, chupa! No lamb's gonna be kabobbed under Chupa's watch!"
"Chupataro…Chupataro, you're there, aren't you?"
"Chupa! Chupa's right here, cabra!"
"I can't remember. I can't remember who I am! Chupataro, who am I?"
That's right, chupa! How could Chupa forget, chupa?
Yuhi.
"Yuhi! You're called Yuhi, chupa!"
…
"Yuhi…Yuhi, don't go, chupa…"
"Chupataro? Hey~! Chupataro! Are you listening?"
88 Rush Duels would take a lot out of anyone. Kawai's experiments with Ewekai Dolly were proof of that.
88 more?
He should have tempered Damamu's expectations when he said he'd duel as much as Damamu wanted.
"It's still dark out. Why aren't you asleep, chupa?"
"Ha ha-haha! I WOULD be, but you were TALK-ing!"
"Chupa was? Sorry for waking you, cabra."
"Why were you crying?"
"Crying?" Chupataro confirmed with his claws his cheeks were indeed wet. "A-ah, Chupa was dreaming about Yuhi, chupa."
"Yuhi isn't home yet…I wonder what's taking him! Yudias isn't back eith –"
Chupataro wrapped an arm around Damamu's head.
"Chupataro?"
Chupataro wrapped his other arm around the other resting Damamu's head.
"Everything will be okay, chupa," Chupataro lied to himself.
