The Table That Was Not

I had ordered Airi's plane ticket from Texas a week or so back, but I didn't tell the girls that they were getting another sister. All they knew was that a box was coming to the house some day and that it had something to do with them.

 

Unfortunately, I had come home too late and they had signed for the box already. They each took turns trying to figure out what the box was, and in the end it was decided that I must have gotten them a table. What else could be long enough for them to huddle around? While Yuki got out the good Tea Set Yuyuko placed a table top on the box (with Suzuran trying to help with a little of both, but instead spilling mass amounts of sugar on the kitchen floor).

 

 

Yuki poured tea for everyone and gave Suzuran a little parfait desert since she had finished her entire dinner earlier without complaining. As Yuyuko slowly sipped her tea, she laid out her tarot cards as she does every night. Past, Present, Future, all seemed boring today. She decided to inquire about the box and my reasoning for getting them such a cheap table. Certainly I must be able to afford something more than just a cardboard base for them. As she drew the card, a cold chill instantly filled the room.

 

 

Being a ghost herself, Yuyuko normally draws The Death, but why would this card come up on a table. Was it actually a tiny coffin? Was there a dead fish inside? What could this card mean for a box?

 

 

As she laid The Death on the table, a bump from within the box scattered the China, spilling tea on the tabletop and causing Suzuran to clutch her beloved snack close to her so it were not to spill.

 

How could something bring up The Death while it was clearly still moving. Yuyuko was now interested and Yuki wanted to see what has caused her more work to clean up.

 

 

Together, the three quickly cleaned the tableware off and started to push the top off the box. They could hear ruffling coming from within and were filled with both a sense of fear and excitement.

 

 

As the lid fell off to one side, Suzuran was the first to peer inside. At first all she could see were pink peanuts. As she stared into that vast ocean, the peanuts began to part and a hand rose up out of it.

 

 

***Not how she was actually shipped***

As all three girls now looked inside of the box, the say another girl laying among the Styrofoam. This girl pulled herself out of the packing and sat on top of it, slowly dusting herself off and tidying up her hair. Yuyuko and Yuki quickly helped this new girl out of the box.

 

 

Finally free of her cardboard box, this new girl explained that her name was Airi and that Father had adopted her and that she was to live with them. She had a Scythe at the base of the box that she would need help unloading late. Certainly the girls liked the idea of a new sister, but each one has slight reservations.

 

 

Yuki:

"Yuki wants to be Ken's only maid...yet, all in all, Airi-san too is in a maid outfit."

 

 

Yuyuko:

"Airi-chan seems like she may be fun to fight every once in a while, but, all in all, here is someone else with pink hair that can invoke death besides me..."

 

 

Suzuran

"All in all it's just another brick in the wall."

 

Congrats on your new girl. Nice story. I hope they can all get over the reservations and be happy together.

Yay! She finally arrives! Congrats on having her get to you safely.

 

Nice story too, I liked it alot!

Very cute little story

 

I hope it won't be too much trouble having two maids in the house!!!

Congrats! That was a nice story, I enjoyed reading it.

Congratulations! Airi is adorable or so are your other girls! That story is awesome too! I love the shot of Suzuran clutching her beloved snack and that she is a Pink Floyd fan. So cute!

I was thinking of posting a pic of the ragdoll against the wall but thought I would keep it DDs.

A happy family in the making...or perhaps not so happy? Good photostory.

Congratulations! Airi has always been one of my favorite DD's. I hope she gets along well with the rest of your girls, looks like quite an interesting bunch you have there.

Nice intro story for Airi, hope to see more pictures of her later

Congrats Suigetsu! Airi is really a wonderful girl and one of the few "modest" girls from Queen's Blade. It's amazing that your going to have 2 ghost DDs now, I wonder if you hold the record for that? hehe

 

I hope they all are able to get along with each other. (I love the shot of Suzuran peeking into the box, that was so adorable!!!!).

Congrats! Airi is very cool! You have quite the interesting family there!

Thanks everyone. I can't wait to take more pictures of the girls ^___^

Congratulations! I want to see even more pictures of Airi. I wonder if she gets along well with your other girls after all.
