[ yeah ichiro's not looking hot when they get up to the sixth floor. he'll take a moment to check out the flyer when they're near the top so he can catch his breath and doesn't pass out at the top of the stairs....
and then trade the flyer for his glock, cock the gun, and follow mabel. super spy. ]
....if this works, you gotta teach me how to do that.
[ he's not even going to question HOW mabel learned to pick a lock but he's okay with this. ichiro will keep watch! he's also listening. there's not any sound coming from inside room 69 (nice) that we can hear, is there? anything down the hallway? ]
[ I DON'T KNOW, I THOUGHT IT WAS A BIT OF MODLY INFO WE WERE HANDWAVING SO WE WOULDN'T HAVE TO CHECK 68 OTHER ROOMS FIRST--whatever that's not the point
When the lock clicks open, Mabel will toss aside the bobby pin and give Ichiro an encouraging smile. She doesn't want to say anything in case there's something spooky inside, but she nods, because she will gladly teach lockpicking!
Anyway she pulls out her grappling hook again and hobbles in cautiously, her free hand groping wildly around the entrance for a light switch ]
[ ichiro says this to tanaka-san, looking over his shoulder one last time - he gives mabel a gentle nudge of "fuck yeah" and says nice quietly out loud when the lock clicks, and then follows after her. he's only got one hand so i changed my mind, he actually flicks the safety back onto the glock and draws his mic instead, ready to spit some fire verses if anyone or anything tries to attack them.
[ Mabel turns on the light, and they'll see a family standing near the back of the room. The kid from before is there as well. They're all holding tasers.
[ he's just going to immediately grab mabel and miku in his good arm, mic dangling from the knuckle rings, step back out into the hallway and SLAM THE DOOR SHUT AGAIN GOODBYE ]
We went up six floors! Do we have a fucking penthouse?! [ HUSTLES FOR THE STAIRS ]
[ Is there anything in the hallway that Mabel can use to barricade the door, or throw down behind them as they run to make them harder to follow? If so, she'll be doing that, but more importantly, she scrambles to the elevator and mashes the "up" button.
Then turns around and brandishes her grappling hook menacingly, just in case. ]
[ nope! nope nope nope he's going straight for the elevator also, because i guess he put his mabel bundle down so he's just got miku on. ]
Tell us what floor to get off on, at least! [ we're gonna die in this fucking elevator like hisoka. ichiro readies his mic, too, so they don't get fucking tased?! depending on how fast this elevator comes up to the sixth floor. ]
Top one. Oh... they're coming. They're especially feisty today, I heard their grandpa died earlier.
[ The elevator dings open. And the family is all in the hall, running for them. They can hear the sound of the tasers being turned on as they get closer. ]
[ As the elevator dings, Mabel turns and scrambles inside, mashing the top floor button and waiting just long enough for Ichiro and Miku to get in too before mashing the "close door" button.
Hopefully it'll close before the family gets in close enough to tase them. ]
[ thank fuck. ichiro whirls around, gets into the elevator, pulls his mic up to his mouth and shouts while the door's in the process of closing because elevator doors are slow - ]
I ain't playin' around, make one false move I'll take ya down! Get back, motherfucker, you don't know me like that!
[ there's a whoom to send the energy from his hypnosis mic into a critical blow to throw these people and their tasers back away from the elevator and buy them maybe a little more time.
[ Tanaka is valid, because Tanaka did not lie about making the mic work.
The family are all thrown back, smacking hard against the walls of the hall and the ground. It'll take them a bit to be able to stand back up as the elevator door closes.
[ jesus. well, a mic is much easier to use than a gun, for him, so. he flicks the switch to turn it off again and leans against the wall. that was a lot of effort, and he is very lightheaded, but he gives mabel a tired grin when she gets all excited. ]
Yeah. You should see it in a full battle instead of something like that. [ heh. and then, to tanaka-san, he tilts his head up to the ceiling. ] Hey - thanks for keeping your word.
[ up they go! does the elevator smell like old milk. ]
But up they go! I am assuming they are getting off at the top floor. There's a total of 12 apartments on this floor, with 6 on either side of the hall. ]
[ when the door opens and she sees all the apartments, she groans again. ]
Am I gonna have to lockpick every single one of these?!
[ please tell me there's some kind of obvious indicator as to which apartment is theirs--or at the very least, one that stands out from all the others ]
Don't do that yet. Come on. [ ichiro pulls his mic to his side, and starts to walk down the hall, listening for noise. can they hear any signs of life? is there a grandpa knocked out somewhere.
and then, also: ]
...hey, Miku. Any of these places feel like home to you?
[ even if he's freshly adopted... this place is weird ]
[ It won't be too difficult, at least, while they're walking down the hall-- the one at the very end is slightly open, and they can hear noises from the inside.
[ Mabel tries her best to sneak up to the door silently and peek in to get a look at who's inside and what they're doing. Are they more Enemies of Miku? If this is their apartment, then why are people already in it? ]
