GUESS WHO'S BACK.

[toruin]

It appears that this place has taken a liking to kicking me out, and then bringing me back.

[That voice seems familiar, doesn't it? It most definitely does, because he has been here before. In a much cleaner state, really.

His voice is hoarse. He seems out of breath about something; like he's just gotten into a fight and someone punched him right in his throat.

Funny.

All is explained when the feed clicks on and Neah is much more visible.

Crimson staining his clothes; along with his skin. There also seems to be fresh blood dripping from the tips of his hair. Either way, he doesn't look fazed. He's been through this before. Twice now. His wounds don't hurt as it did the first time, but damn. Does he look happy.]

I complain too much about how this place has awful timing, but I must say... [A chuckle.]

What perfect timing.

[He goes quiet for a moment so he can catch his breath.] What have I missed?

[Welp.]

Do you mind sneaking me back into my room?

[action]

[devola]

[Grinning wryly? Yep.]

And me without some kinda all-encompassing dress on... Time to run distraction at the check-in desk, then?

[action]

[toruin]

[devola pls]

You have a pretty face. You don't need a dress. [He'll just be smilin' back. They're not devious, not at all.] Pretttyy much. I'm not great at sneaking in, but distractions work.

[devola]

I don't think you'd fit under it anyway -- that kinda smuggling just seems so unrealistic in reality.

Anyway, right. Give me... Oh, about a minute or so before you skulk on in?

[action]

[toruin]

We're not short enough to have each other stand on each other's shoulders either.

[ANNDDDD Jackass smile? Check.] Thank you very much, my dear. I appreciate your trouble.

[devola]

Chop off a foot or three and maybe. Anywho, here we go~

[And thrown over her shoulder sing-song as she retreats is a...]

Don't screw up~♫

[action]

[toruin]

[BUT THEN HE'D BE SHORTER THAN YOU]

Oh please. I can be stealthy as much as the next person sneaking into a hotel.

[Look, see here. He's going to ready his Metal Gear Solid skills without alerting the concierge.]

[action]

[devola]

[Okay here we go.]

[Wild RECEPTIONIST appeared!

DEVOLA used SMALL TALK.

RECEPTIONIST is distracted...!]

[action]

[toruin]

[

> You see that the receptionist is distracted
> You take this moment to boost your ass through the lobby door and up the stairs
> You have complete the stage.
> Stage 2, start.

Also, he'll be waitin for you gurl. He needs to at least escort you back.]

[action]

[devola]

[One inane dialogue later...

Stairs.

oh. hi.]

[action]

[toruin]

[get out

with that comic sans

right now.]

Thank you for providing a rather nice distraction, m'dear. [You know if he had cash on him, he'd probably pay her right now. Unfortunately. No wallet.] Would this kind lady like to be escorted back to her room?
