part 3

(continuing from iku’s arrival to the re.u.s. and meeting Nate)

Nate takes iku to the base: a working hotel, but that hotel is not in the best shape :/

Nate: (“This will be your place, ownership and all, so you’ll have some passive income if you manage this place good.”)

iku: (“Uh-huh. What leverage did he have on you for all this? Surely you don’t expect me to believe you’re doing all this because your kind and that I’m pretty.“)

Nate: (“Oh no no, I barely have to do anything with this mess, I mean sure - I ain’t no saint, but I really do keep myself out of these kinds of businesses, the hotel was already your boss’s, I was hired to keep it in shape until someone came along. I’m gonna be here as someone who oversees you after I give you the keys.”)

iku: (“Expect me to ignore everything you say.“)

Nate: (“I’m sorry if this comes off as rude, but what is up with you? I don’t get why you’re so hostile towards me, I haven’t done anything to you.”)

iku: ( sighs “I’m not gonna tell you, I don’t trust you, and I had a really shit day. If he didn’t tell you that I’m like this, then he fucked you over just as much as me.“)

Nate: (“Yeah alright, well I’m hoping you’ll be a bit nicer after you’ve had some sleep. Come, I’ll show you your room, we can go grab food after you put down your stuff.“)

As iku’s following Nate up to her room, she get’s a text message from Caretaker.

ct “hungarian” <(“Hey I’m so so so sorry, I was so distracted by everything else that was going on I didn’t even get to say Happy Birthday in person to you.”)

iku “hungarian” <(“ah no worries, tysm!! i’ll message you later, puppy boy is already annoying, but I’ll chalk it up to being jet lagged.”)

ct “hungarian” <(“Don’t you kill him just yet, he’s there to help you.”)

iku “hungarian” <(“tough ask, idk… jk jk i won’t.“)

Nate shows iku her room; It’s an okay sized room considering it’s a crappy hotel, queen size bed, a tv, decent kitchen area a bathroom with a shower/bath combo.

iku: (“I was expecting something way worse, this ain’t so bad.“)

Nate: (“Finally some nice words out of you, but yeah, it’s not like you were going to get a crappy room.”)

iku: (“If it was up to the boss I definitely would be in the basement. Can you give me a couple minutes while i pack out? And then we can go eat.“)

Nate: (“Yeah sure, take your time. I’ll be waiting for you down in the lobby.“)

After Nate leaves iku just dumps her shit on the bed, and goes to the bathroom, she takes her sunglasses off and washes her face. Right before she’d put them back on she notices a little bit of dried blood on the edge of the frame, as she’s wiping it off she has a little smirk on her face.

When she’s done, she gets back to Nate.

iku: (“Aight’ I’m ready, let’s go.“)

Nate: (“Alright, let’s go to the back exit, there’s a parking lot there and I’m parked there.”)

iku: (“Sure.“)

They both get in, and it’s not a too long ride to a certain famous fast food chain known for burgers (i’ll let you guess lol).

Once in the restaurant, they both put down orders, while Nate goes for 2 smaller burgers, iku goes for 2 large cheesy burgers.

Nate: (“Woah, you’re gonna eat all that?”)

iku: (“I haven’t had a nice meal since yesterday. I need to eat a lot to keep up my build, and the rest of the excess fat goes to my tits anyways.“)

They get the burgers.

iku: (“Holy shit did I get the grease-a-nator, what is up with this?“)

Nate: (“What do you mean, these are always really greasy.”)

iku: (“Maybe here, eh, whatever, I’m hungry enough to not give a fuck.”)

iku and Nate eat the burgers, well maybe iku fucks those burgers up pretty fast, but yknow: a girl’s gotta eat.

After this they go back to the hotel and then iku goes to her room to finally have some rest.
