Attention, any and all muses out there!! Positions are open for hire, I repeat, positions are open for hire!! Any muses that are in need employment, interviews are scheduled on Saturday, September 16, 10 AM at *insert address here*. You must be male and bishounen to apply. Thank you for your time. He looked up from his newspaper (Anime Weekly) and smirked evilly as one thought crossed his mind. //This should be easy.// He then, to the shock and disbelief of the people around him, disappeared from sight. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Akiri sat back in her seat as she impatiently twirled a strand of midnight blue hair with her fingers [1]. 10:00 AM. Where were all the muses?? Hadn't anyone seen her ad? Before she could even finish her sigh, she suddenly heard loud talking start outside of her house. Looking out the window, her eyes widened as she saw the huge crowd. //Whoa, that was fast.// She went to open her door and took a step out. "Would everyone please form a line?" And, instantly, they were all in a perfect line. Smiling, she added, "I'm ready to interview the first victim.... er....muse," before she stepped back inside. Sitting down in her chair, she heard a knock on the door, telling her the first muse was ready. "Come in", she said simply. The door to the living room open and shut to reveal the hottest bish she had ever seen. Silver hair that looked silky to the touch, which was tied into a high ponytail with the bangs loose on the sides. Light green eyes and an unearthly pale complexion, the fanged smirk that was worn succeeded not in marring the perfect face, but making this man more intriguing than ever [2]. //So, he thinks he's got this job in the bag? We'll just have to see what he's got.// With a smirk of her own, she broke the short silence that had come in to play, "Sit down, please." He nodded and sat down as instructed, smirk not failing for a moment. "So, first of all, what is your name?" "Ryuusei Tenteki," he replied. "And what makes you think I should choose you, Ryuu-san? What do you have to offer?" Something indecipherable flashed through the mesmerizing emerald eyes. "Words fail me, Akiri, I believe? Why don't I show you?" he said, smile growing wider. Catching his meaning, she quirked an eyebrow and snickered, "If you insist." ~*~*~*~*~*~* Hours later...... Ryuu smiled smugly as he stepped out of the living room and into the hall without waiting for the "You got the job". Akiri bounced to the door with an energy most people were surprised she had after certain.....*ahem* strenuous activity and let the next muse in. ~*~*~*~*~*~* 15 muses later, Akiri still hadn't found anyone appropriate since the silver-haired mystery. Oh, they had certainly been bishounen, but not interesting at all. She open the door once again, praying that this was the right one. They both sat down and Akiri took a few seconds to observe him. *Definitely* bishounen. Not as much as Ryuu, but only because she had a fetish for long hair and fangs. Short platinum blond hair, and if you looked at a second time, you could see it tied into a small tail at his neck, and innocent violet eyes. "Let's get down to business, what's your name?" He smiled warmly, "Seisui Anrui. And you are?" One thought processed through her mind before she answered. //Hey, that rhymes!// She returned his smile, "Akiri." Sei lifted his slender fingers to fan himself, "My, it's hot in here, the air is really thick. Don't you have an air conditioner?" "Hai, but gomen, it's broken," she lied, knowing the *exact* reason why the air was so thick. "So, tell me why I should pick you as a muse," she said, swiftly changing the subject. "Um.....well.....I haven't had anything prepared.....uh....I can get you a new shirt?" he replied weakly as he pointed to Akiri's ripped tank top. She sweatdropped, not only was he dense, he was also too innocent for his own good. Seeing that that wasn't the answer she was looking for, Sei added, "Erm.....what did the muse that you accepted, the first one I think, say?" Akiri snickered, "He gave me a very *cough* convincing speech. Should I tell you what it was? Well, actually, it's better shown than said. Let's go to my room, the living room is hot enough as it is." Confused, Sei shrugged, "Uh....ok....I guess." Akiri's grin quickly changed from warm to evil. Boy, did she love corrupting the innocent. She then proceeded to drag the blonde up the staircase and into her bedroom, shutting the door at that. A few minutes of shuffling was heard. Then, a muffled, "*That's* what he did?!" ~*~*~*~*~*~* The blue-haired girl rushed downstairs once again with shocking energy to open the door. There stood the scariest guy she had ever seen. She stifled a scream. He was *old*. White hair, blubber hanging over his belt, knobby knees, practically bald head, a full set of golden teeth and a decidedly hentai gleam in his eyes. "Are you going to invite me in, young lady?" "Um.....are you sure you're at the right house?" He nodded impatiently, "Yes, you're looking for a male bishounen muse, ne? Now quickly, these legs can handle much more standing." "Er.....gomen....but.....uh.....I'm not accepting any more muses!! Yeah, that's it!! Two is enough for me!!" The old man pressed on, "But don't you want me to convince you like the other two?" He winked. Akiri's eyes bugged out of her head, and she backed away in a matter of seconds, muttering something that sounded like "squicksquicksquicksquicksquicksquick". She sweatdropped, "N-no!! You don't have to do that!! I don't need any more muses!!" The senior citizen frowned and wobbled away, grumbling about "standing up for so long for nothing". Akiri shut the door, closed her eyes and leaned against the door. She wiped the sweat from her forehead and sighed in relief. Taking a slow breath, Akiri stepped back and opened the door. "Next...." Before she even got the chance to finish the sentence, the next muse was on the seat, his cold eyes burning a hole through her. Not that it phased her of course, she only smiled. "This interview does not need to take place. The decision has already been made for you. I took care of the others," came a deep voice, curtly. Taking another glance out the door, indeed they had been taken care of. Bodies of injured bishonen were piled on the bottom step. "Oh great, how am I supposed to clean this up?! Mom'll kill me when she gets home," she murmured to herself. Then, to the mysterious muse, "Aa, I see. Well, would you at least tell me your name?" She turned around to see how this "Mr. I Don't Like Competition so I Critically Hurt Them" looked like. He was surprisingly bishonen for someone so vicious. Long raven hair that was a little past his shoulders with bangs that blocked his left eye from visibility. His deep blue eyes were cold, filled with malice, and his mouth was quirked up slightly in what Akiri assumed was a bloodless smile. "Kaikatsu Saiai. [3]" The kitsune-onna barely stifled a snicker, knowing that it might not be a smart thing to laugh at "I'm going to kill you", but couldn't stop herself from smirking, "Aa. And I'm Akiri. Er... nice to meet you.[4]" "Consider the feeling returned," he said emotionlessly, though the look he gave her told her different. //My, what a friendly and loving relationship this promises to become.// ~*~*~*~*~*~* So, now, I'll officially introduce my muses!! *shows pic of Ryuu with his trademark evil smirk* Name: Ryuusei Tenteki Powers: Telekinesis and suspected to know some telepathy.

Pale ivory skin, almost white. Evil smirk with fangs. Position: Angst muse *shows pic of Sei who is smiling gently* Name: Seisui Anrui Powers: Being nice, gentle, and innocent. Being dense.

Position: Deathfic muse. Surprising, ne? ~*~*~*~*~*~* [1] Yeah, I dyed my hair dark blue, of all colors ^^. Who knows what the next color will be. [2] For the colors, refer to Yaten from Sailormoon SailorStars. Except the skin color, of course. [3] *bursts out laughing* Hehehe, as I said before. Go look it up yourself. Let's just say, his mom did a bad naming job. [4] So, I changed from being a usagi-onna to a kitsune-onna ^^. Foxes are cuter. ~Akiri
