>"Any idea as to who wrote this? I'd kinda like to thank them for giving me a direction to go in, nyan."

>You show her the note and comment on how you'd like to thank whoever wrote the note, and when she looks at the handwriting, she seems to chuckle a bit.
Mistress Yukari certainly has a habit of doing things like this."
>Ran looks around for...something? No..someone? Whoever it is, they're not around.
"It looks like you've just missed her though."

>We haven't introduced ourself yet, have we?
>...Come to think of it, do we even remember our name?

>You decide to introduce yourself, it seems you remember your name at least.
"Ah...that name seems relatively familiar...wait, you're a new youkai aren't you? I seem to remember one of the cats little Chen was taking care of having a name like that."
>A little while later, after an enlightening chat with Ran, Chen comments from atop a nearby dresser, in an almost-bored tone.
"Isn't it supposed to be lunchtime now?"
>That reminds you, you don't think you've eaten anything.

>"Can I have some food too nyan?"

>Ran chuckles a bit, and you can hear Chen giggling from atop the dresser.
"Well, Mistress Yukari did say to prepare extra."
>But Chen then interjects!
~BGM: Funny You Should Ask...~
"But wasn't Yukari-sama supposed to be fixing lunch today?"
>You do remember she mentioned something like that.

Parser's Note: I'll edit a few commands to flow better, it'll just be here and there, and yes I was napping.

Ran needs a more readable text color =[

There's a reason for the colors, I would've used indigo, given that it's her associated color, but that was even harder to read.
Like so.
Though looking back, it might work a bit better.
Maybe if the forum's backdrop was a lighter color?
wait, wasn't there a toggle for that?

Kips McKipzerson · « **Reply #156 on:** March 18, 2011, 06:16:24 PM »

You could always try pink, beige, or hell, even yellow for ran.

Hello Purvis · « **Reply #157 on:** March 18, 2011, 06:17:37 PM »

Alternately, no text colors at all, and just let your writing distinguish dialogue. It works for pretty much all the published authors out there.

Now that would work, had i not assigned yellow to yuuka.
Since y'know, sunflowers are yellow.
Screw it, i'll give yuuka green, nitori can have blue.

Well fuck.
You could always do it like everyone else, as purvy said, with "ohaidere" said [insert name here]

Hello Purvis · « **Reply #160 on:** March 18, 2011, 06:23:06 PM »

Perhaps this could work for Ran, if text colors are necessary?

Ahaha, we need more commands y'know.
And you've used your command post, so I need one other.

I just found out MotK has 140 text colors. Should I post them all?

Also, is the BGM real? I was thinking it was made-up, but it turns out Speed Battle is a track on an AQUAELIE album. Kitsune's Ball and Funny You Should Ask don't seem to exist, though...

They're actually names for pre-exsisting songs I felt fit the moment, the links will be posted at the end of the story.
"Speed Battle!" is different from "Speed Battle", note the exclamation mark in mine.
