[Still no mission! But there's a couple things of note. Santa was gone yesterday, but now he's apparently come back to his house. And there might be familiar faces going into the Toy Factory. Other than that, though, there's nothing really different. It may also be of interest that there doesn't seem to be any repercussions for doing nothing yesterday...]

There's plenty of other things to do when you're feeling angry or frustrated! What you do is just plain awful! What would your mother think if he saw you doing such things!?

[vexed_snake]

[That...makes him laugh more than it should.]

Nothing. My mother's dead. My parents vexed me. So did my brother.

[And there's absolutely no hint of remorse.]

[shy_kindness]

[Fluttershy... just stares in wide-eyed horror. Fluttercruel is just as shocked.]

[vexed_snake]

[Yes, Flutters, you're dealing with a genuinely terrible excuse for a human being. And he doesn't seem to care. He just grins in response to that wide-eyed horror. It's not the first time he's gotten a look like that, nor will it be the last.]

[shy_kindness]

[After a few moments, that horror transforms into anger. Ever feel what it's liked to be pulled by the ear? Because that's exactly what Fluttershy's doing to you. She'll be dragging you to the nearest bathroom to wash his mouth out with soap.

Fluttercruel is very amused by this.]

[vexed_snake]

[For a second, Asakura is too confused to react, but ow, hey, watch it, pony, that's his ear you're tugging on! He's making a few attempts to punch her off, but thanks to the way she's yanking on his ear, nothing connects.

Asakura's kind of stumbling in whatever direction she's pulling him, and he's got no idea what's going on here.]

You're really starting to vex me...

[And let's face it. Soap isn't high up on the list of "things Asakura makes use of regularly" anyway.]

[shy_kindness]

[Punishment is exactly what's going on. Fluttershy knows exactly what she's doing. Ater all, she's done wonders for Fluttercruel.]

I'm going to wash your mouth out with soap for saying all those awful things! And then you're going to go sit in the corner for 4 hours and think about what you've done, mister!

[vexed_snake]

[Fluttershy will at least have no problems dragging him wherever, simply because he's now laughing too hard to fight back much at the moment. Every now and then, he'll still manage a sloppy punching attempt that misses.]

I'd like to see you try.

[shy_kindness]

[When she hears that laughter, she tugs on the ear harder. This is supposed to be a punishment, and she'll make it feel that way. After all, this is a horrible, horrible person we're talking about.

Once they reach the bathroom, Fluttershy turns the water on and reaches for the soap.

Oh, and there's a mirror in the bathroom.]

[vexed_snake]

[Mirrors are the first thing Asakura looks for upon entering a room, and for good reason. Even though his ear hurts thanks to all that tugging, he's still got his hands free. He'll just remove a small purple box from his pocket...

Fluttershy, you like animals, right? How do you feel about snakes? Because there's suddenly a very large purple cobra hissing on the other side of that mirror. If it's not noticed immediately, it will poke its head through the mirror and hiss more loudly.]

[shy_kindness]

[She has a few pet snakes, actually. She also has a few pet rats, skunks, bears, bats, flamingos, squirrels, turtles, seals... the list goes on.

She doesn't notice the snake, too far focused on rubbing the inside of Asakura's mouth with the bar of soap. She's going to clean vigorously.]

[vexed_snake]

[There's a bit of confused struggling and sputtering on Asakura's part, because he's never had anything like this happen before. That wasn't at all how his parents disciplined him (because clearly whatever they did try worked so well), and everyone else in prison was much too frightened of him to attempt anything weird involving soap.

Venosnaker is a cobra of very little brain, so it's sadly incapable of finding amusement in its master's predicament. It is, however, slithering out of that mirror and into the bathroom. The room is probably getting crowded now; Venosnaker's a very big boy.]

[shy_kindness]

[The Flutters begin to notice that the room is getting crowded by a giant snake. 'Shy pauses from the mouth washing and glances over to the snake with a pleasant smile on her face.]

Excuse me. I hope you don't mind, Mr. Snake, but it's getting just a teeny bit crowded in here. I hope you don't mind waiting outside...?

[vexed_snake]

[Venosnaker seems to mind waiting outside, and to voice this irritation, spits a bit of acid. Sure, that toilet is now destroyed, but the good news is that Asakura won't be able to use it to give anyone a swirly later on.

Asakura's sputtering because of the soap, but he's using Venosnaker's distraction to hold that purple box up so the mirror can see. He's wearing a very unusual silver belt now.]

He's here for me.

[shy_kindness]

[Fluttershy's kind of in the middle of something. She's going to repeat herself firmly. And with The Stare.]

Would you mind waiting outside, please?

[vexed_snake]

[Sorry, boss, you're on your own. There's an audible whimper from the snake, and he slithers right back into that mirror. At least it brought Asakura the chance he needed to spit out some more soap.]

Henshin.

[He's slid that purple box into his belt, and...however will you clean his mouth out now that he's transformed into Ouja and is wearing armor that matches that snake so nicely?]

[shy_kindness]

[Woah, when did he change into that? Fluttershy blinks. Then recovers quickly, her Gaze turning back into The Stare.]

Not so fast, mister! Just because you're in a costume, it doesn't mean that's going to keep you out of receiving your punishment for doing those awful, horrible things!

[vexed_snake]

[He'd felt pretty good about where this was going until The Stare had been whipped out. NOT AGAIN. Asakura's initial reaction is to freeze in place, although he's slowly trying to inch towards that mirror.]

[shy_kindness]

[Fluttershy's still doing The Stare as she reaches out to take the mask off.]

You need to take that mask off!

[vexed_snake]

[He's still trying to get to that mirror and away from The Stare.]

You can't just take it off...

[And one of his hands is moving protectively towards his belt buckle. Could that be how to turn the armor off? Spoilers: yes.]

[shy_kindness]

[Fluttershy notices the hand go to the belt, but doesn't put 2 and 2 together. Better be quick before she does.]

Take it off, or in addition to finishing washing your mouth out and putting you in a time out, I'm going to make you publicly apologize to everyone here.

[Her voice is strict and firm, like an angry mother.]

[vexed_snake]

[He is still inching towards the mirror...although with the way his hand is resting on the belt, he still might de-transform.]

I'm not apologizing to anyone.

[He's got to think of a way out of this...]

You know, I actually saved someone once. A little girl.

[He did! He really did! Sure, it was only to use her as future monster bait, but Fluttershy didn't need to know that.]

[shy_kindness]

...You're right. You'll be apologizing to everyone.

[That second thing? That's very surprising. The Stare softens up into a cheerful smile.]

You saved somepony? That was a very good thing you did! That' a good start, but you need to do that more often!

[Fluttershy is now officially distracted. Fluttercruel... is still keeping a close eye on him.]

[vexed_snake]

[Oh, good, he got The Stare to stop. That makes it easier to think. He can so milk saving that little girl if he has to; a similar act got a reporter to bring him his younger brother so he could finish the job of offing his family.]

That's right...I saved her from some attacking monsters.

[He's still trying to get to that mirror now, so close...okay, he's making a break for it. Jumping into that mirror is jumping to FREEDOM.]

[cruel_kindness]

[Fluttershy is about to say something else, but then Asakura jumped into that mirror. Fluttercruel takes control.]

Oh no, you bucking don't!

[She tries following in pursuit, only to smack into the Mirror because she can't enter them. She rubs her nose a little.]

The buck...?
