Repairs done by Cyberdyne Intradimensional Branch #4
Standard contract is unit for sale, placement with home in order to pay for repairs and allow unit another chance to find happiness. Is this OK? Y/N___
Honey stared at the words floating in the darkness around her. She had been repaired and was now being sold? If she refused now she would be returned to storage? She tried to project an inquiry at the floating text.
Current purchaser is neither evil nor possessed. Current purchaser is Ranma Saotome, designated primary owner in contract. Gift is for Kasumi Tendo, designated secondary operator. Analysis of comments indicates purchase is to perform as bodyguard and household help for Kasumi Tendo primarily.
Honey blinked. Ranma Saotome? As in that anime series?
Identification correct. Dimensional transport was utilized.
Is this OK? Y/N__
Honey projected Y, hoping it would at least get her to where she could get more answers.
"So I'm actually the owner, but Kasumi's the operator so she can still get help around the house?" Ranma scratched his head. "Well, I guess that's okay."
The girl slowly got up as if she had been asleep a long time and began stretching out. On seeing her figure, Ranma could just hope that Akane didn't get all angry about it.
"Hello. My name is Honey Kisaragi. I'm really uncertain as to how to proceed with this."
Kumiko cleared her throat. "Treat it as a live-in job, Kisaragi-san. If any demons, monsters, or creatures from beyond threaten, I'm sure your current employer will give you time off to deal with it. Should you require any repairs, particularly from such endeavors, we do provide such services."
"Oh, right," said Ranma. "I'm Ranma Saotome. Pleased ta meetcha I guess."
Kumiko nodded. "There'll be a trial period while you two get acquainted. If it doesn't work out, just return and another unit will be provided. I've already scanned and analyzed the materials you've brought in, Saotome-san, so we've set that up as the starting balance on your account."
"Right," said Ranma. "Now I just gotta figure out how to explain this."
