>"Ah, my apologies, mistress."
>provide taco
>scan room for cell phone

>You give Parsee the ☼Taco de Asador☼. She sniffs it at it; whether she is curious about the odor or poison is hard to say. Regardless, she is clearly pleased by it from the rare smile that forms on her lips. Then she delicately bites into it, and slow shock spreads across her face as full impact of your masterwork strikes her. "Oh...my," she says, "I...I think I need to be alone for this."
>A quick search reveals no cellphones. This place seems too baroque for that sort of thing.

>You bow politely and make your way out. Yugi starts to follow, until Parsee grabs her by the wrist. "Not you."
>"Uh, I'll come down for some ice cream later," Yugi says, seeming to have been caught off guard by Parsee's demand.
>You leave, contemplating the implications of all these things.
>You stand in an antichamber at the top of the tower. You can see the doors to Parsee and Sakuya's rooms to the north and west respectively. To the south a stairway winds down. Obvious exits are north, west, and south.

>The door opens, and Sakuya peeks out; you note that she seems to be holding a generic-looking postcard. "Oh, it's you. And...you've seen the owner of the manor, I think. That ought to explain it all."

>"Then may I be so bold as to ask about the previous master of the house?"

>Sakuya quirks her lips for a moment. "Well...I guess it's not breaking confidence if you work here now. But understand that she has ordered complete secrecy in this issue. I suppose she rightly understand no one would care about Green Eye Manor.
>"The situation is simple: Lady Scarlet visited the gambling hall that damned miko established, and took quite a liking to it. She...let the thrill go to her head, and Parsee won everything. The manor, our contracts, our loyalties to the owner of the house everything. ...I don't even know where Lady Scarlet is now."

>Anything could be a quest items. Anything at all! Even yourself!

>resist urge to consider the size of Sakuya's bust a quest item

>"And how's Parsee been using the manor in the meantime?"

>You resist your shameful urges and ask what Parsee has been doing. "I...only know a little. She has Patchouli doing...something, I don't know what. But it has involved a lot of work on Patchouli and her familiar's part. And she has been sending letters to the kappa. No one wants to ask too many questions, for fear that Yugi may get involved with them."

>You have no pox. Things are probably better that way to be honest.

>"And you know what the worst part is? The worst part?" Sakuya continues, her voice a low hiss now "No one cares. Do those maids down there give a single solitary damn that Lady Scarlet is gone? I hear them laughing and carrying on after hours; they've already forgotten her. And that door guard? You wouldn't know that anything is different, talking to her! I bet you couldn't tell, could you. Heh. Patchouli only cares because Parsee is working her to death, otherwise she'd just curl up in that library and not even notice! They've already put Lady Scarlet out of their minds! They've turned around and completely forgetten all she's done for us!"

> Go open the basement door and tell Flandre that someone wants to play in her sister's room
> Hope Flandre can take care of Parsee and Yuugi while you hide.

>If it all fails, hope nobody else finds out you let Flandre out. And pray to Suwako.
