Episode 1: The Newcomers

[Auir]

"I'm not exactly comfortable answering those type of questions."

[paladin313]

"Then...I vood be extremely jealous, especially if she doing him favors."

[Auir]

Again, she stared at him as if he was a pervert.

[For Washuu]

"Ah, such 'small talk'" Washuu cackled.  Sitting in her lab, she could hear their every word as she analyzed the tissue sample she had taken from the hand of the unknowing "Romanov" when they had greeted each other.
She turned down the volume a little so as to concentrate on her data-crunching and research.
"But... not tooquiet, hah!" She cackled.

[paladin313]

(Note: he is royalty, and he has an ability, but we have not yet decided what that should be, or how he is to discover it.)

"Sorry...I...well..."  he turned red faced.

[Auir]

"I'll... Go check up on Washu and see how the results are coming along..." said Ayeka as she stood up and headed for the door leading to Washu's lab.

[paladin313]

He quickly got up and said, "Please forgive me...my father taught me how to be better gentleman than that..."'
     He looked a touch ashamed of himself.

[Auir]

She stopped and nodded a 'I understand' before going into the lab.

[paladin313]

He let her go and went back to the tea.

[Auir]

"Ms. Washu?" Ayeka called out, poking her head into the lab.

"Ms. Washu, are you there?" she called out again, fully opening the door and stepping in.

'Cluttered as always....' she thought to herself as she eyed the piles of inventions and machines everywhere.

[For Washuu]

(oh, come on, Washuu is not unorganized! :/ )
"Hang on a sec, Lady Ayeka.  Just stand there, okay?" came the voice of the Scientist from [litterally] nowhere.
(she isn't visible at the moment)

[Auir]

She stopped and looked around, hands clasped together in front of her. She looked around and wondered what was going on and hoped she wasn't about to be the subject of another experiment.

[For Washuu]

A yellow, round, two-"eyed" device silently descended onto the princess' head just as four feet of red hair backed out of a portal door.  Followed by the scientist, who was pulling a large, odd, flat... well, something.   (Not really something that a human, or Ayeka, for that matter, would bother to try to figure out what it was, but it's not related anyways.)
"Hold on." Washuu reassured that fidgeting princess.  She aimed a scanner of sorts in the general direction of Ayeka while poking and tugging at the "something odd".
The unit on the princess's head registered a beeping noise, declaring any analysis finished, and it ascended back into the somewhere that it had come from.  Wahuu's attention returned to the device in her hand, and an expression of surprise landed on her face before it slid back into her scientific smirk.
"Okay!  That's all," she concluded, tossing the sub-scanner device into a pocket dimension.  "What was it you wanted me for, Ayeka?"

[Auir]

Her face was still perplexed by what she just saw, but she shook it off.

"I was wondering what were the results considering our guest's lineage?"

[For Washuu]

"Really, honestly?  ... I don't know."
The scientist smirked as the princess face-vaulted.
"HOWEVER... You yourself have just given me some interesting data concerning him which you have mentioned."
She began to pull the flat, papery thing again, but it didn't move much.
"Mattaku.  I forgot gravity is less there."  She paused again. "Ne, Ayeka-dono, could you help me out with this for a moment?"
