The Six Dollar Mii

Kiba! Astounding, you returned.

... what. Are you saying you were worried about me?

Not exactly. Considering how you almost never go out any more I'd reckoned you must have done it because you were either insane or suicidial. Ah, and here I was trying to pawn all your things off...
 

WHAT? You most certainly did not do any of that! And where's my laptop?

I figured you wouldn't be needing it any more so I traded it for a bowl of Caviar and a Truffle. Best deal ever.
 

No way, you most certainly didn't... see, if's just over there. Now stop taking the piss, that's supposed to be my job, and you're supposed to be the straight man.

W.... what. Since you were acting out of character for once, I guess I ought to give it a shot myself. Seems awfully pleasant to behave just like a certain snarky wisecracking prick every once in a while.

J... just shut up, okay! I was on... on assignment. I was meeting the first new fellow who moved in to Gensokyo Island for the last few months, all right?

 Bargon wan chee Cospa Tenchou! Hohohoho....

A... ahem. So, back to my usual meek unassuming self who has to take all your usual crap, what's this new guy Meito Anizawa like?

Oh, you know, the loud, hot-blooded protagonist-type sort of character? Except instead of being an adventurer he runs a comics store instead! I couldn't have asked for a better new friend on this island!

I see. And I gather that since you don't have any money with you he kicked you out of his store for browsing the comics without paying for them. Assuming they weren't hermetically sealed, that is.
 
N... normally you'd be right. Except that he was too busy trying to get that other girl Konata Izumi to buy something instead, so I managed to spend the time reading the strategy guide for the latest MMO cover to cover! Once I log back in I'm gonna wipe the floor with those noobs...

... when, you know, you should actually have been doing work here at the news office? And you were actually skiving off instead on the pretext of meeting the new resident.
...whoa, man. What's gotten into you? I mean, yeah, you're usually kinda uppity, but having a sense of responsibility to go along with it? Now that's new...

 Boy, boy, boy... also, these kids look wayyy too similar to their dads. I mean, sure, it'd be weirder if they didn't, but... come on.

It's not really a sense of responsibility. It's more like.. frustration, after your boss comes into the office and dumps a whole stack of paperwork on your desk, and the only computer you're allowed to use happens to be owned by your lazy senior co-worker who's trying to take the day off? 

A... ahem. Yeah, that's right. Remind me again why we're such a great team... to think that neither of us had actually done or intended to do a day's worth of work in our lives before coming to this island.

S... shut up and speak for yourself. Anyway, three different families each had a son the other day, and all of the kids look nearly identical to their fathers. It's like mother nature got lazy too and just copied their genes over almost exactly. Well, Reimu and ZUN's tenth child Junto looks a little more like an individual, but it's hard to say that Sanae's son Lucius and Yuuka's son Pierre are anything other than just like their fathers Baldren and Sycamore respectively.

It kinda explains the names too. I mean, what kind of cheesy name is Pierre anyway. At least Lucius sounds way more obviously like a bad guy than Baldren does. But anyway, so I take it that's all, well, that's pretty neat then...

No, it isn't! You think those names are cheesy, what about being inundated with cheesy baby photos and even cheesier catchphrases? I swear to heaven there's more types of cheese on this island than a French supermarket.
 
Harlan wants to shout it out loud while it's in his head, but Pádraig knows what is good in life.

So I heard... I don't know what's up with Shinmyoumaru Sukuna and Overlord Laharl's son Harlan, but I hear he cries sometimes while he's lying in bed just to let it all out while it's in his head. Perhaps it's part of the realisation that he has a mouth and needs to scream. On the other hand Patchouli Knowledge and Overlord Mao's son Pádraig just wants a pint... of Milk or Orange Juice, or preferably Spiced Apple Cider. That kid drinks an awful lot for such a youngster.

It's a tale of two Overlords, isn't it? It's surprising that two kids could turn out so differently despite having similar fathers. It's probably because while Harlan resembles his dad, Pádraig goes against the mould and seems to be more like his mom.  

Hmhm.... very cute. But in the end it doesn't matter to Okuu's Look-alike, as long as it's another kid sent out into the world to fuel her wicked plans. That's why pretty much everything's a dime a dozen on this island except contraception and family planning advice.

Ugh... you don't say. What worries me is that the docks are getting overcrowded again. I heard that Alex has been cleaning the place tirelessly as "part of his programming", or so he claimed, but that place is soon going to reach the limits of its livability again...

Really? You heard such a thing? Well... if that idiot alien robot assassin from the future didn't predict such a thing, he couldn't have been all that perfect now, could he? Should have sent a more advanced model, hahaha...

*KNOCK KNOCK*

 I've always wondered... why don't they tell you they hate something before actually eating it, if they're gonna rspond like that...

... eep ...

Kiba... Kiba? Hey, what the... are you hiding under the desk again? It's just Aya Shameimaru here to collect our reports... Kiba
