Propoganda Machine! (Mai)

[Alley Kobayashi]

"Alllllllllright, lassies!! Who here ain't feelin' their competitive natures bein' fulfilled. 'Cause if any o' ya ain't, I got just the place fer ya!!!"

Alley's boisterous enterance with her newest compatriot in tow fell on deaf ears. Or, that was to say, no ears at all. It was a waste of a perfectly good opening line two. As her words echoed off the walls, Alley looked around and then scratched her head. This was certainly odd.

"Huh...nobody's home." she said and turned back to Mai, "Well...this bein' the case, I say we just cram 'em all in the lockers!"

Another flash of teeth showed that no empty locker room would damper her spirits. And poor Mai, who was running the risk of going deaf herself, by tagging along with Alley. They apparently had decended on the locker room when either students were in the middle of some sport or another...or were in class. This certainly made things difficult. But, as she had suggested, all was not lost.

"Right...so, I'll start off down at that end..." she pointed to the furthest end of the locker room, "...An' you start here. We'll wrap up some where in the middle. Sound like a plan?"

[shoryu]

Mai made a mental note to get earplugs when such opportunity presented itself. It was a shame that there was no one here, but then again, the fliers could say overtime what a person could not in the here and now.

She nodded at Alley's suggestion then waited for the other Spican to go about putting up fliers on the furthest end of the locker room while Mai faced one beside her. A brief attempt at opening the small metal door showed it was lock. But, Mai had just the thing for that, and she pulled a small bobby pin from her hair. For a moment Mai wished her latest acquaintance, Tamao-san could be here to witness the quick process; she was curious of such a thing anyway. The thought of the Miator student staring in awe then politely yet excitedly asking questions made Mai blush and smile a little.

But, she shook the thought from her head and went about her task. In a moment the locker opened and Mai neatly stuck the flier inside before closing and securing it again before moving on to the next one. Strangely enough though, Mai had actually came across a locker that wasn't. Before Mai could stick something inside, she felt the name etched on the door.

"Toumori Shion" Mai read to herself. A smirk formed on her lips as she was about to stick the flier inside before she felt it touch something then reached in to pull it out.

It was an envelop and it smelled of perfume. Mai blinked at what she held in her hand

[Alley Kobayashi]

Her feet carried her with purpose towards the opposite end of the room. She was a little more haphazard than Mai, folding up the fliers and slipping them into the locker through whatever gaps there were available. And so she proceeding, not being very attentive to who was recieving the information. Whisteling to herself, she progressed down the row.

At the end of the row, she could have sworn that she heard Mai speak up. Whatever was that she said was hard to tell. Quirking an eyebrow she leaned out and looked around, "Oi? You say somethin'?" she spoke up, starting down her second row.

[shoryu]

In response to this, Mai turned towards Alley's voice and held the object in her hand.

"Can you tell me if this is what I think it is?"

[Alley Kobayashi]

Now Alley was quite intriuged. Stopping immediately, she set the stack of flyers down on top of the locker she had yet to stuff and in no time was right by Mai's side. Apparently the blind girl's mystery object was a note of some sort. That was about all she could gather at the moment.

"Well...what do ya think it is?" she asked, "'Cause it looks like a letter ta me. It anythin' important?"

[shoryu]

"But, it smells of perfume... Hm, I wonder if Toumori-kaichou has a secret admirer..." Mai trialed off.

She shook the thought from her mind then put the letter back in the locker, closed it, and locked it again.

"Whatever the case; it's best we just take reference of this and leave it alone for now"

[Alley Kobayashi]

"Well, ain't that a juicy lil' bit o' gossip." Alley remarked, watching the letter return to the locker. She felt slightly dissapointed, now that her curiosity had been ramped up.

"...If'n ya say so..." she trailed off a little, "Ah, but allright! We got work ta do!"

Beaming another bright grin and dashed back to the locker she had left off on. But, the question that tugged at the back of her head was who's signature lay within that envelope. Flier after flier was stuffed into locker after locker. "Oi!" she called out across the locker room, "If ya remember the scent, try an' see if it matches up with anyone! We can do ourselves a nice little bit o' detective work on the side!"

[shoryu]

"N-...." Mia stopped herself; that negative response was impulsive.

She cleared her throat. "Perhaps we should pursue this... Besides one never knows how such things occur"

Toumori-kaichou having a secret admirer seemed a bit... Strange, but then again it wasn't impossible. Then again, this could be from a secret lover. Whatever the case; it required a little observation before any conclusions could be drawn. Mai just hoped only she and Alley were the ones who knew of this thus far. Otherwise, Toumori-kaichou and the sender of this letter could face some trouble in the future.

[Alley Kobayashi]

"Exactly! And if we ain't cheatin' with this, then scrappin' out some honest work outta provide a nice bit o' illumination!" Alley cheerfully encouraged as she paraded down the aisle slipping fliers into lockers as she went. Her merriment continued as she moved down yet another row, "So...what's yer guts tellin' ya? Any theories?"

(OOC: Apologies for the brevity!)

[shoryu]

Mai smirked at Alley's ever improving mood and took a seat on one of the benches.

"Not yet: Tomouri-kaichou could already know this person, or perhaps this the first letter she received. As aforementioned, we would have to pursue this"

Right when Mai said this, she heard the doors at the entrance open. Without a second thought, she immediately grabbed Alley and pulled her behind a wall and away from view, just as students began to pour into the formerly empty room
