Daisuke didn't stare. Oh yes, he was aware that this slavegirl of his friend might be available for sex. However, the single reference to 'wetwork' had not been the sort of thing involving lubricated body parts. Rather, that had been 'wetwork' as in being given a living target and reducing them via usually violent means to a not so living ex-target. While the girl was certainly attractive, he'd already imagined several situations wherein he might initiate sex only to have himself removed from ever enjoying sex again. Excessively violent and graphic scenes that his imagination tiptoed around, but were sufficient.
Yuka and Sayuri were both a little surprised that Hiroshi's slavegirl was wearing as much as she was. She was wearing a fully functional, knee length, maid uniform.
As Cammy went to a seiza position in the background, there was a brief and uncomfortable silence.
"So, what's the problem you wanted help with?" asked Yuka finally.
"I sort of borrowed money to get her," said Hiroshi weakly. "Actually, I was going to buy Akane Tendo since she was supposedly at the slave auction."
"How could you get that kind of money?" asked Yuka. "You know how much a full-use teenage slavegirl runs?"
"Well, yeah, I kinda know," said Hiroshi. "So I sort of -"
"He borrowed money from the Yakuza," said Daisuke.
"WHAT?! ARE YOU AN IDIOT?!" practically snarled Yuka. "Do you have any idea what they'll do to you if you're late for a payment?"
"The first time, nothing physically," said Cammy from her position. "They might send someone by for a reminder. It's if he continues to be late with payments that physical abuse will begin."
"You're familiar with this?" asked Sayuri.
"I fulfilled similar duties prior to my resale," said Cammy.
"You were..." Yuka's voice trailed off as she settled the teacup back onto the saucer.
"An assassin," said Cammy as matter of factly as she might have said she worked in a carwash or cafe.
"So that means you," Yuka hesitated to say the rest of it, "killed people?"
"Yes, that is what an assassin does," said Cammy. "As well as a hand-to-hand combat specialist on the underground fight circuit."
Yuka pursed her lips and turned her attention back to Hiroshi. "You have SO screwed up here."
"I know that," said Hiroshi, a little testily. "What I need is figuring out a way of making the monthly payments."
Yuka and Sayuri exchanged a glance before turning their gaze to the slavegirl in the maid outfit.
"Look, ya say ya want that stuff," said Ranma, trying to figure out some way out of this situation, "but this ain't exactly the best location for this."
"Why not?" asked Kasumi, glancing around the wooded clearing.
"Bugs, leaves, a lack of padding or support," said Nabiki's voice from nearby.
"Your father trying to sleep over here," supplied Genma's voice.
"MFFF!"
"Oh, that's right," said Kasumi. "I forgot to untie Akane."
Ranma sighed, aware that he was off the hook for now but that he'd have to do THAT and probably soon. Not that he couldn't, but what if he didn't do it well? It wasn't like he'd done it before.
