February 25, 2007

  • Shimizu Arisa gets a taste of her own "therapy" when a strange therapist recommended by Sarah instructs her to make a "boyfriend list". Her remorse for what she has put the others through is short-lived, however, and Plum soon tries to force everybody else to make one too. Ryou refuses and leaves, to Plum's dismay; after turning into Panziko and being offended when Gamu still recoiled in fear, Satou follows him. Gamu, frustrated, leaves too and comes upon Mochi Maron. They play in the mud and make a replica of Cafe Mew Mew. Ryou and Panziko nap under a tree, finally free of the stress. Back at the cafe, Plum refuses to give up, even though Cherry is too shy to make a list, Bob refuses out of fear that Plum will learn of his previous fixation with her, and Kocha has the romantic history of a rock. Plum somehow twists the conversation into one about Bob and Cherry needing more romance, and Kocha suggests ridiculous ideas to renew their relationship, most involving the temporary theft of Ryou's private jet. Ryou wakes up and calls Ichi, is disheartened when she yet again says that she is busy, and teleports to talk with her. He gives her chocolate and she reveals that she fears being labeled a crazy obsessed girlfriend because of her jealousy. Kouji comes upon Gamu, who wants to spy on Ryou and Ichi. He calls her obsessed with him and says that Ryou must be the same as his father in his own dimension, who, he claims, was too weak and untrustworthy to save Ichigo. Gamu tells him that she could never count on her family when she had a home and that alternates of the same person can be vastly different. They return to the cafe, where Maron takes a bath after being convinced that she will not be neglected or sucked down the drain. Himeno is knitting scarves for a fundraiser, and Kouji encourages her.
"You can't fire me. I'm your shrink, I control your life, and I say you can't fire me." -Plum
Trivia: This isn't the first time that the Plum character has gotten a plot based on a book that her authoress has been reading. The infamous bone cancer plot is the most familiar of these.

February 24, 2007

  • Himeno is bothering Kiki Reikaira, calling her stuck-up and crass and turning all her arguments against her. She finally leaves, but just when she appears to be bad to the core, she spots Satou planting flowers where people might step on them and replants them to save them. Himeno does have some good in her...? Shirogane Ryou talks to Satou, who is trying to cheer him up, and wonders why Forte is so affectionate; the little creature has no clue. Ryou goes inside and talks to Gamu, who is raiding the fridge; she reveals that she knows what happened with Ichigo, which annoys Ryou, but he figures he won't have to lie. Satou, her usual adorably clueless self, hugs Himeno and skips into the cafe to make crepes, dragging Himeno along, with Kouji right after her. Gamu reminds Satou that cooking should be infused with love. Ryou hesitantly agrees to one.
"Hehehe~ Oniichan, can you see Satou's pretty garden nyano?" -Satou

February 23, 2007

  • Kokoro apparently reaches a new low today. Upon seeing that Kitenshi Kocha is still glowing, Ryou demands that she not touch anyone for fear of her contaminating them. This does not hold for long, however, as Kocha quickly forgets the order. Instead, she suggests game ideas, and later with Plum, reasons why Shirogane Ichigo might be mad at Ryou. The girl in question finally makes her appearance, and yet again Ryou tries to get information from her. Kuroneko Satou and Kocha attempt to persuade the catgirl to hug and make up with Ryou. Soon, however, Gamu interrupts and begins a round of her usual interrogations. When Ichigo still does not offer any explanation, Gamu threatens to and does use force, to which Ichigo does nothing to stop her, saying she actually feels nothing. Satou is the first to try to stop Gamu's attacks, although Ryou soon yells at the ex-spy to stop; Satou heals the other catgirl. Upset, Ryou begins to yell at Ichigo himself, even going so far as to slap her on the cheek and to tell her she is lying about feeling nothing at all. The others finally leave after Ichi begins crying; she finally admits that she feels like she no longer has a part in Ryou's life, pointing out that he often spends his time and shares his feelings with other people. As Ryou is digging out a first aid kit, he tells her that most of the time he is talking to other people about either her or his father, and that she had said herself that hearing Ryou whine about such was annoying. After apologies, Ichigo admits that she really does have school work to do, so they plan to meet the next day. Gamu and Satou have their own arguments about whether to let people share their feelings on their own time or to pry it out of them. After Satou gets upset, Gamu goes after her, explaining that she "stalks" everybody for information because she doesn't want to be alone. After calling to check on things at the cafe, the two go off to visit a crepe stand on their way back to Cafe Mew Mew.
"No matter how many times we fix things, something always ends up complicated." -Ichigo

~February 21, 2007 (?)

  • Kitenshi Kocha, while working on a recent experiment, ends up blowing up what appears to be a radioactive substance in the backyard near Elizabeth's garden. Seeing this, Liz returns home to Shou's appartment in a bad mood, while Kocha does her best to save the plants, coming in contact with the substance herself, which turns her skin a glowing green color.

February 16, 2007

  • Shirogane Masume refuses to make friends with anyone but Choco-chan, talking back to and badmouthing Murahara Sakura until the poor, beleaguered potential friend gives up. Kouji sulks because Shuu was too busy with video games to remember him, but quickly snaps out of it and moves on to the hot baked potatoes. Ryou tries to avoid the chaos in the library, but in come D-kun, looking for Ryou, and Kitenshi Kocha, testing her chemicals on the potted plants. This cannot be good.

-"Why are my cat senses tingling...? ...the library's a safe place..." -Ryou

February 15, 2007

  • Kitenshi Kocha has another great idea... it's a fancy dress party, which is quickly shot down, to her dismay. Ryou starts helping Satou with homework, using childish "kitty" analogies. Tsubasa is caught vandalizing the cafe and ordered by Gamu to clean up; she valiantly refuses, but is eventually saved by Hoshizen Daisuke, upon whom Gamu harps that Tsubasa should have to learn her lesson. Ryou learns that his parents have moved in together, and, though relieved, is slightly disappointed that he hadn't forced them to himself. Kocha tries to "cheer up" an only mildly disappointed Ryou, who makes faces until she goes away. After a Jenga bet, Kocha isn't allowed any junk food for another full day.

-"No, no... think of this... like... like kittens... say you want to put all the kittens into one basket and a "0" in someone else's basket. If you move a kitten over here, then you have a negative kitten on the other side." -Ryou

February 14, 2007

  • Kitenshi Kocha is chastised for trying to sell love potions to customers. Shirogane Ryou, being "really American", gives out simple chocolates to everyone, as well as his fangirl-sent chocolates, in case they've been laced with said love potion. Thankfully, they're safe. Masume tries to make her own chocolate and ends up with the monstrous Choco-chan, which she keeps as a "pet" despite Himeno's attempts to eat it. Shirogane Jishou brings Liz roses and takes her out for dinner, and they get roped into a double date with Kirei and Shinrai, leaving just as Ryou takes a cute couple picture of his parents. Kirei turns out to have secretly moved Liz's things into Shou's apartment unbeknownst of either. Kouji decides that he and Kumo should stick together and fight for the planet. Satou, Ryou and Gamu play a round of question-asking, and Satou is cornered about switching places with her Sugar Card counterpart, revealing sadly that she was afraid of making her "family" sad. Ryou tries to cover up that he feels lonely and depressed because Ichigo has been ignoring him and didn't even give him chocolate. Gamu gives him a big, handmade chocolate, telling him that it came from Ichigo; Ryou doesn't buy it but, in the end, appreciates the attempt to cheer him up.
  • Private RP Postlude: Elizabeth Shirogane, along with Jishou, Kirei, and her new husband Shinrai, visit a seafood restaurant as a Valentine's Day "double date". Before entering, Kirei reveals to Liz that she had moved all of her stuff into Shou's appartment. After a somewhat awkward beginning to a conversation, Liz finally reveals to Shou that someone might be moving into his apartment. When she finally states just who that person is, Shou takes her outside and says that he had actually been planning to ask her to move in with him that night, unfortunately, Kirei's plans had ruined his own. The two have their moment after Liz suggests that Shou could forget what everyone else had done and ask her anyway. The two then return inside with Shinrai where the females cut a Valentine's cake. In the midst of all this, Liz ropes Shou into "babysitting" duty.
"Good! Because if you ated her...I'd hurt ya really bad!" -Masume

February 13, 2007

  • Ryou again tries to discover what's up with Ichigo, who tells him she has just been very busy. The genius, however, doesn't really buy this. Shirogane Nikkou visits the cafe with Takaishi Sora, whom, it seems, is desperate for a new girlfriend; they begin talking to Gamu about Valentines Day, which eventually leads to the discussion of boyfriends and the Shirogane family in general. Hearing this, Ryou gets quite aggravating, stating that his father inparticular has no grounds to be so highly overprotective of him. Nikkou is then dragged out before the conversation goes further out of hand, although it is continued later with Roy Bancroft, who gives Ryou a few suggestions. Ryou also tells him about his recently interrupted sleep patterns to which the other boy explains sounds very similar to the events leading up to Memory's appearance in Chrono Mew Mew, but that it happening here is a bit of a stretch. Roy, however, finally reveals the extent of the Souls' activity to Ryou. Kuroneko Satou finally returns home.
"My girlfriend was recently acting weird, my father hates her guts, my mom's been playing "Miss Daydreamer" and I've got mages messing with me and my normal sleep patterns. What do you think of that?" -Ryou

February 12, 2007

  • Thalia Crescent's brother Lucius has a lot of explaining to do, she rants as she drags him into Cafe Mew Mew by the earlobe. Though Kiki Reikaira can appreciate having to go into hiding when one's former agency has issued a death warrant for oneself (raising the question of why she didn't do it, to which she simply replies that she's paid for not doing so), it's still highly amusing that the assumed-dead Turk went around for three years in another dimension dressed as a girl. Thalia asks how they'll ever get home, but as far as her brother's concerned, they should never go home, instead leaving everyone to believe that they're dead-- at least they'll be safe. As the cafe closes, one option remains, and the two decide to leave to Kingdom Chronicles' version of Radiant Garden.
"Are you sure you're not actually hiding from an angry boyfriend?" -Thalia

February 11, 2007

  • Kiki Reikaira teaches the Sugar Card version of Kuroneko Satou how to make Valentine's chocolate. Meanwhile, Ichi just sits and knits while Ryou tries to figure out what's wrong with her. This quest gets more and more desperate as the day goes on, but Ichigo continues to insist that it's stress from work, despite many rebuttals to the contrary. Plum is all over this "scandal"... when she's not trying to set all the singles up together or break up the couples for fun. Roy finally turns Plum's ploy around on her, and as usual, she sulks and says that it's not fair. While Ryou plays with Forte to fill time before Ichi decides to tell him, Gamu confesses about the frankenplush, and Ichigo actually says she loves it. Kyr asks Plum out for Valentine's. After a plot to scare the cafe residents goes wrong, Ryou walks out to think, encounters the enigmatic Kunisaki Noriko and the always cheerful D-kun, and calls Ichigo, asking more firmly, what is wrong with her...
"Learning to Live With Drama... Money Isn't Everything, Never Anger A Girl With A Weapon.... where did all these books come from?" -Ryou

February 10, 2007

  • Shirogane Ryou gives Kocha a bit of advice for her testing of Super Milk. Kouji and Kumo bond over a Hansel and Gretel picture book. Sugar Card's Momokeeki Hotaru shows up in Cafe Mew Mew, muttering about an inept teleporter. Kuroneko Satou feels bad about her ineptitude at cooking and doesn't think she'll make her family happy, so she switches places with her SC counterpart. Liz does some Valentine's chocolate baking with "special" ingredients to mess with Shou. Ryou and Gamu notice the Satou switch, and SC Satou confesses. The duo stay the night.
"Valentine's chocolate... You know how there's friend chocolate, and love chocolate? Is there hate chocolate? Or indifferent chocolate? I don't know who you are chocolate? There should be." -Kocha

February 9, 2007

  • Private RP Prelude: Roy Bancroft drags Ryou off to go fishing with Minoru and himself, feeling that the blond needed a break.
  • Kiki Reikaira is mad. Ryou has been telling her secrets to everyone he meets for long enough, and she's petrified of the thought of what has happened to her ever getting out. Kuroneko Satou stands by as an "observer" and assures Ryou that she'll visit his grave every day. On the happier side of the cafe, Shirogane Kouji adopts Kumo as a "sister", as being his aunt is too weird for her. The Fishie Heroes burst into the cafe and, convinced that Captain Planet is real and that cereal box rings will summon him, gather all the fun people into their lunacy. Gamu, very close to breaking, first threatens and then pleads that the split's effects on her never be known to anyone, especially the mages. As Satou simultaneously stands to guard him and calls him a moron, Ryou confesses that he's already told Sora. Caught between practically every negative emotion there is, she decides to let Ryou go, if only for the fact that everyone needs him. Shirogane Shuugo's brother comes to apologize for how he's treated his counterpart and teaches him a new technique... and Satou tries decorating Mini Mew's Ryou like a Christmas tree.
"Guess he tired himself out summoning Captain Whatsis." -Himeno

February 8, 2007

  • Thalia Crescent is looking for a job. She's also still looking for her brother, and recovering from time-travel brainbreakage. Ryou's nightmares have thrown off his sleeping schedule completely, so Kocha invents the opposite of Super Caffeine: Super Milk! It doesn't yet work for 53 hours like its stay-awake counterpart, but it does put Ryou to sleep faster than Satou's cries to exorcise the "no-sleep demon". Maron decides that she would like to try tofu again. Shinga Shikari is trying to avoid getting a cold, but still can't stand the winter weather. Thalia mentions something disturbing she found about her mother in this timeline, and asks silent psychic Kunisaki Noriko to keep an eye out for her brother. And why is Eithne Bunansa going on about not hearing something called the Green Wood?
"Evil no-sleep demon fly fly away away!" -Satou

February 7, 2007

  • Happy birthday, Charice Gainsborough! She comes to the cafe with all her friends, and Liz bakes her an overly flowery cake. Ryou plays with Forte and lets slip that he's been having bad dreams lately. Shirogane Shuugo reveals that Kyr is allergic to perfume, and Kyr makes another mean crack about Ichi. After badgering from Kiki Reikaira, Ryou reveals that he's been having bad nightmares and losing sleep. The two talk about Ryou's failed plots to get Shou to move in with Liz and Gamu's guilt about making the "frankenplush" the way it is without telling Ichi of the failure, and Ryou snaps that he wants to talk about his dreams with a family member, not her. Gamu retorts that Shou is messed up and just being rude to Ryou because he wasn't with "that other girl" anyway. ("Because his authoress ships RxR.") Ryou thinks about why his father doesn't approve of his girlfriend. They begin to talk about their secrets, highly embarassing Gamu as her hidden sides (and love of small children and escapist fan comics) are revealed. Meanwhile, Thalia wonders where Eithne is going to pick her up, and enlists Liz and Kocha to find the half-Viera.
"Well, like, Uncle Vincent's emo, so er, yeah." -Tallulah

February 6, 2007

  • Roy Bancroft and Elizabeth Shirogane attempt to save the garden from the frost. Meanwhile, Charice Gainsborough tries to guilt her brother Eris into attending her birthday party, but it seems like his nemesis/crush Tallulah will be there... she shows up in the cafe and they begin to argue, chase each other around and generally wreck Cafe Mew Mew. Zachary Andrews plots to annoy Ryou again... Kocha and Kiro go off to eat and talk about the benefits of knowing what you want versus going in unprepared to the grocery shop. Besides the food part, Ryou seems to have been thinking the same thing-- otherwise, how did he survive when he didn't get Ichi anything? They go out skating instead. Liz and D-kun go grocery shopping, but the dog gets loose and tries to steal a box of donuts. Sarah Cohen self-consciously asks Roy about her dye job, to which he replies that it's no big deal. Kiki Reikaira breaks up the fight between Eris and Tallulah, but they refuse to apologize to each other. Ryou storms back into the cafe late at night, muttering about "overprotective losers"... don't tell me Shuu's brother is back again.
"Well, first of all, happy Ryou-Ichi day to you~" -Ichigo

February 5, 2007

  • Shirogane Ryou is out of it after staying up far too late, and is thinking of horrible gift ideas for his anniversary with Ichi. So out of it, in fact, that he doesn't notice Plum, Kocha and Daisuke stealing his car. Zachary Andrews and Elizabeth Shirogane just shake their heads, and Liz shows Minoru yesterday's pictures. The joyriders go shopping, although the other two show restraint when Plum wants to buy a car or golf cart with Ryou's credit cards. Ichigo drags Ryou out on a walk and interrogates him as to why he said "I'm sorry" and hung up; he eventually tells her, and she draws a heart on his palm, promising that she will never let him disappear. Ari shows up with Miles Alesci, who is looking for Shuugo's brother-- oh, no, what if he's flirting with Retasu again? Gamu gets right on tracking her, but they needn't have worried; the Ryou-alt in question is impersonating Kyr again. Our Ryou sees through the deception and walks off alone, angry and confused. Gamu follows him and tells him that he shouldn't feel alone because a lot of people care about him, and Shou should realize that, too. She displays some wistful envy towards Ichi, which first brainbreaks Ryou, but he quickly gets over it and begins to wonder about everything. THey walk off, teasing each other about who would wipe the floor with whom in a fair fight.
"If I was a bad person, I would have chased down Cerise with a golf club! But I haven't done that~" -Plum

February 4, 2007

  • Shirogane Ryou is reading... those weird magazines that say "Bigfoot spotted" and "Celebrity dates giant alien". Weird. Plum wants something fun to do, so Ryou suggests Freeze again. Ryou runs through a few amusing scenarios with Kocha, while Elizabeth Shirogane takes photos to show Shou-- it's not blackmail, as Gamu wondered, but an attempt to connect again. Ryou teases Gamu during a scenario by asking her to marry him, and she plots revenge, not to mention goes to bother him about whatever secret he is keeping now.
"Uh... she said he'll like Ichi -eventually-, which prob'ly means once he's worn out their patience enough that they either break up or elope an' get disowned." -Gamu

February 3, 2007

  • Kiki Reikaira and Forte have kept Shirogane Ryou's secret. Attempting to hide said secret from Emo Kitty and Plum, they go into the lab, where Gamu apologizes, causing a fight over who is responsible. Ryou leaves Gamu alone in the lab, and she sends Forte up to talk to him. The mages come into the cafe and Ryou confesses his problem-- and what Gamu truly is, which she's been trying to keep secret from them especially. It is implied that Gamu tried to kill herself in the basement to put the timeline back together, but was barraged by telepathic images and drew the attention of Murahara Sakura. The mages reveal that Ryou is not being written out of the dimension; Takaishi Sora assures him that there is no way that simply the events surrounding the cafe could cause the dimension to go into a state of "erase and repair". It seems then that someone is out to confuse Ryou and make him doubt himself; this someone then, likely, is a mysterious girl who snuck into Gamu's room to steal her sleep darts. Ryou decides to head for home because there is no immediate threat, but changes his mind at the last minute and visits his father's apartment instead, where he engages in a game of "Freeze" with the other visitors. They also explain to him what likely has happened and help him return his arm to normal, though Ryou feels foolish about the whole ordeal, and remains a bit shaken. Ryou returns home to find that Satou, Cherry, Gamu and Forte had been out searching for them. He apologizes for making them, specifically Satou, worry about him. Gamu puts Maron to bed, and Alto and Panziko try again to terrorize her out of her fear of cats. Satou eventually gives up, making her "younger sister" feel bad.
"So we should... bring confetti poppers to oniichan and pop 'em in his face?" -Satou

February 2, 2007

  • Kitenshi Kocha, still depressed at the failure of her beach party, asks Eithne Bunansa and Thalia Crescent how to make people happy. Thalia says that being there for people and knowing when to help is all that's needed, and asks if her brother's anywhere to be found. Kocha takes everyone to a bridal shop to try on clothes, although Maron is shy and afraid that people will see her newly-developed bat wing. Ryou is also hiding his arm... it's turned invisible. After a short interrogation, Gamu exposes it, but doesn't tell anyone. Kuroneko Satou returns, wondering why anybody would worry about her. Maron clings to Ryou, Satou and even Gamu, whom she feared-- she just doesn't want to be alone. Satou, through a series of misunderstandings, is led to think that Ryou wants to take over the world. Gamu corners Ryou, who tells her that the split that created Kokoro Draft has probably damaged the time stream enough that Kokoro is trying to repair itself by doing away with him. He wonders if even the Mew Project was a waste of time. She snaps that he's made a positive difference in many lives, even though she had hated what he'd done, and that if the split kills anyone, it should be her...
"Hey, that's gorgeous glorious benefactor to you." -Ryou
  • February 1, 2007
Eithne Bunansa, who isn't used to the cold, and Akasaka Junri, who wonders if her new ear piercing is infected, enter a lifeless Cafe Mew Mew. The boredom is interrupted by Kitenshi Kocha and her new idea: to transform the cafe into a pseudo-beach and party like it's July! Despite her attempts to engage the cafe in fun, the few people that are there are either disapproving or, in Maron's case, petrified. Kocha tries to repair relations with the shy little girl by taking her to the bookstore. Meanwhile, Kiki Reikaira feels bad for her alternate future kid and plays with the volleyball game that she had set up, but it gets nowhere. Junri asks if it's okay to hate somebody for a comment about their parentage, which Gamu strongly approves. Could that somebody be Shirogane Anzu...? Kocha returns and is depressed that no one had any fun or participated in the activities at the party.
