[Kotetsu is... hiding under his bed. Trying to shoo Cambot away. It isn't working.]

Gah! Okay, if a certain pony is trying to find me, you didn't see me, got it? Now go away!

[Cambot tilts to the side, a bit confused, and goes to float over by the door.

Kotetsu?

[Why is he hiding? And what pony?

Oh, right. The riff and the bet.]

I won't tell her.

[eyeofwildtiger]

Thanks. Much appreciated. If you see her, tell her I'm on the weapons deck or something.

[skysmirror]

Okay.

[Rarity'll probably find him eventually, but if he doesn't want her to yet, Xion'll go along with it.]

[eyeofwildtiger]

[Thumbs up! Then wiggles under the bed some more.]

[sailorgenerous]

[Oh. Oh is that how we're playing this. Well, then.]

[She acts like Cambot isn't even on, instead working on something just out of the frame and chatting animatedly to a bunny sitting on a nearby stool.]

Why yes, Barnaby, it is just about finished! All that's left is the trim, and I could do that in my sleep. I do hope Kotetsu comes by soon to pick it up.

[She looks at Barnaby and pats him gently on the head]

I'm sure he misses you too.

[Your move, Kotetsu.]

[eyeofwildtiger]

[Darn you, filly!]

...

[Okay, fine. He'll just have to do a good old fashioned school rescue if he wants that bunny back. ...so, out of the room he creeps.]

[skysmirror]

[She returns the gesture. Good luck!]

[sailormagic]

[Oh look at Twilight not getting the hint at all.] Why wouldn't a pony be able to see you?

[eyeofwildtiger]

SHH! I'm hiding!

[sailormagic]

Yes, but why? [She hasn't seen the riffing yet.]

[eyeofwildtiger]

[If she doesn't know about the bet, he's not going to confess freely.]

Rarity wants to put me in a dress!

I've got the dress designed, actually. I can send it to you over AIM tonight.

[sailorgenerous]

[Rarity simply continues working on the dress. She's instructed the songbirds to keep an eye out for Kotetsu, so she should know when he arrives.]

Looking forward to seeing it. XD

[eyeofwildtiger]

[Cambot starts to play some appropriately sneaky music as Kotetsu sneaks down the hall, but is quickly shushed.]

Stealth, Cambot! Stealth!

[Once he's there, he caaaarefully peeks inside.]

[sailorlaughter]

This is fun!

[Pinkie is now under the bed next to Kotetsu.]

Who're we hiding from again?

Poke me when you get on!

[sailorgenerous]

[If she didn't hear the music, she would've known he was coming anyway - she very politely asked her songbirds to let her know when she was coming, and the three-part harmony rendition of I Need A Hero that they break into when they see him coming is indication enough. She turns towards the door and smiles brightly, as though this were a surprise.]

Oh, there you are! I was just hoping you'd drop by. Do come in.

[eyeofwildtiger]

Oh, nah, you look busy and I've gotta go... do things. So I'll come back later.

[eyeofwildtiger]

[If he weren't so on edge, he probably wouldn't have reacted. As it is, though, he jumps as much as being under the bed can allow.]

From Rarity!

[sailorgenerous]

Oh-h-h, now, don't be silly! I'm almost finished with your...outfit. You're just in time for the last few adjustments.

[Plus, there's that flock of songbirds behind you that don't want to let you leave. That may prove to be the greater obstacle.]

And look! [She gestures towards the little bunny on the stool] Barnaby is happy to see you.

[eyeofwildtiger]

Yyyyeah, but I've gotta go... see someone about something. Like I said before, right? So I'll just take Bunny with me and come back another time!

[sailorlaughter]

Oh! How come?

[sailorgenerous]

[Yeah, no, she is not impressed with the excuses. She knows exactly what he's trying to do - she does have a little sister, after all - and she's not about to let him get away with it.]

I'm certain someone can wait for just a few minutes. You do have a promise to uphold, after all. I'll also make sure Camboit isn't looking while you change.

[She's also gotten between Kotetsu and the door. She does not intend to let him leave without a fitting.]

[eyeofwildtiger]

But... they... I...

...

What if he starts recording after?!

[eyeofwildtiger]

She wants me to wear a dress!

[sailorgenerous]

I can only guarantee so much.

[She may be subtly trying to herd Kotetsu into the room, except without the "may be" and the "subtle."]

[eyeofwildtiger]

[He knows what you're doing, filly, but there's nowhere to run. It's not long before he trips over some small animal and lands flat on his back.]
