[color=fff200]*OOC: Since my previous post was a GMing post, I'm disconsidering posting rules just this once, 'cause I had a post ready for Eos and was just waiting until the night went way for [@TheWindel] and me to post that colab between us two and [@AgentFallenSoul], before I could make my next player post. Plus, given the current level of activity I guess that it'll be safe to drop the restriction to one post only instead of two. So feel free to post using that new speed for the time being.[/color]

[hr]

After Ikkime took Amiti back home, and the gathered Chasers delighted in Chikage's treat to their heart's content they finally decided to disband their meeting and call it a night.

The following day would go without trouble for the Dangeki crew and since it was Saturday, it meant that the café would be working on its weekend shift, that means, opening a little later and closing a little earlier than during weekdays. This shift allowed a little free time for the café crew to do whatever they wanted in the mornings while saving the night time for their 'secondary job' since Youkai attacks tend to multiply on these days because of all the  careless persons walking around places that they shouldn't be.

And thus Eos was spending her free morning taking a walk through a nearby park while heading to her favourite bookstore in order to purchase yet more 'study material' as she used to label her manga collection.

Eos was walking absentmindedly while listening her Jimmy Hendrix collection on her c-Pod and reading a manga at the same time when she felt something bumping against her legs. When she took off her headphones and looked down to see what was it Eos was greeted by sight of a small [url=http://media-cache-ec0.pinimg.com/736x/1f/1d/cb/1f1dcbd35dbe00d34099f63a71db6f44.jpg]girl[/url] holding a plushy bunny tugging to her dress. The robot girl, patted the child in the head and said, [color=6ecff6]"I'm sorry,"[/color] before continuing her walk though she didn't went far before she felt that girl didn't let go of her dress.

Eos lowered her head and looked the child in the eyes before saying, [color=6ecff6]"What's it sweetie, are you lost or something like this?"[/color]

The girl nodded silently.

Eos patted her head again, [color=6ecff6]"Alright, let your onee-chan help you. I'm sure that we will find your relatives soon enough."[/color]

The girl nodded again.

[color=6ecff6]"I'm Eos. What's your name?"[/color]

The girl didn't answered Eos, instead showing her a badge that was pinned to her dress, on it the name Rikka was written in a very simple, but pretty handwriting.

It was then that Eos figured, [color=6ecff6]"You can't speak, can you, sweetie?"[/color]

The girl nodded yet again, but this time she seemed a little downcast.

[color=6ecff6]"Don't be like that, you're too cute to make such a face."[/color] Eos said as she produced a lollipop from within one of her pockets, [color=6ecff6]"Here, they sell those where I work. You can have it if you want."[/color]

Rikka picked the candy and didn't lose time before shoving it in her mouth, that reaction was actually so cute that Eos found herself smiling just from watching the girl joyfully suck on the lollipop.

Nevertheless, after long time searching around the park, Eos couldn't find a single trace of where Rikka's relatives could be. When she went to report the case to a guard, Eos found that Rikka had disappeared mysteriously while she wasn't looking.

Without any further cues, and having jeopardized her free time helping Rikka find her family, Eos thought that the best thing that se could do was go back to the café before it was tome for them to open. However, just as she was about to leave the park, Eos felt tug in her dress and when she look to see what it was, Rikka was there again, still sucking the remainder of the lollipop.

After a brief talk with the girl and another frustrated attempt to report the case to the authorities, Eos came to the conclusion that it would be the best, or -as it seemed to be- her only choice, to take Rikka with her back to the café.

When she arrived back there, there was still a full hour before the opening time and thus the storefront was empty and, despite being the middle of the day, the closed curtains made the place feel a little eerie.

Eos sat Rikka at one of the tables closer to the café's mini-stage (as was her habit when dealing with her guests), [color=6ecff6]"Don't you think this place is beautiful?"[/color]

Rikka nodded happily as she looked around the cosplay café with bright eyes. She had finished the lollipop by now and was fidgeting with her toy, while listening to Eos.

[color=6ecff6]"I know it,"[/color] Eos said, [color=6ecff6]"do you want something to drink? I guess that we still have some sweet barley tea from yesterday, perhaps even some cookies."[/color]

Rikka's expression brightened quite a bit and thus, Eos took that as a yes and went happily into the kitchen to pick some refreshments for her unexpected guest. The fact that Rikka wouldn't be paying for her services didn't bothered Eos, since she was just too happy to be able to treat such a cute girl.

Later, perhaps, she could ask Shiina and the others to see if anyone knew of a way to help Rikka find her way back home, but for now it was time to be the café's number three maid, know by the moniker of [b][color=6ecff6]'Dangeki Electric Princess'[/color][/b], once more. Certainly, Eos couldn't think of a better way to start the day.
