She got a headache… and it first felt like her head would explode any second that she thought about that and the second thing was that there was a pain behind her ears, which could be because she was wearing a headband of black bunny ears. She had rolled herself up like some sort of sushi roll and looked at the little bits of bright light that was outside her small one-woman cave and decided that she would tolerate the pain and wiggle herself out. Which wasn’t really favouritable for her outfit as that was apparently complimenting the bunny ears, as well as her long skinny legs but well, that wasn’t visible as she sat, staring at her outfit. The hell, how did she get that, don’t think too long a head explosion would happen. Everything seemed to hurt, which would make sense if those black heels that stood next to her blankets were what she had worn all night, those weren’t hers, where the heck were her pants? She looked left and right and squinted her eyes when she looked up to her maid of honour, ”I.. I am a bit lost.” To be soon distracted by the cat, it ran over towards her and she first leaned a bit backwards because; the heck they got a cat now? She looked left and right but spotted Hecate her long blue hair and sleepy face so no rare magic tricks on that one, ”We have a cat?” A cat? A bunny suit? She stood up, a bit wobbly still but mostly because she had a hangover and was tired. She had this disgusting flavour in her mouth from too much alcohol and walked into the bathroom.

She didn’t reach the sink to get to the point of brushing her teeth because for starters: this wasn’t their hotel room and she noticed because none of their stuff was in the bathroom and it had a wall length mirror, which she couldn’t remember from before they left, which only made it more clearly to see the full bunny suit, the disray of her hair and a: a small shriek left her lips, tattoo on her right hip: belongs to Konstantin. She made herself giggle, forced herself to giggle, nah this was permanent marker, this would get off, but she let out a soft autsh sound as she tried to rub it off; nope.. tattoo. ”What did I do.”

Alright, she always had thought she was doing fairly okay with alcohol, surely she had a long period of not drinking and so on for a very important result; two kids and after that, she couldn’t drink as she took care of her children but for a bachelorette party it shouldn’t be this mad. But it felt like a complete madness. Her headache made it feel like if she lifted up her head, she would sink down through the rest of the floor as it was heavy and it would be a hellish thing to do; combing her hair. Why did she had such long hair? It surely did not feel like a good thing at this point. Thank god in the present time Alice did not regret having long hair, she loved the beautiful red colour from it.

However, at this time she simply wanted to brush her teeth, there were a few things that had gone through her mind. Such as shortly talking to Alisa, she didn’t grab most details of it, the thing was that she was lost in what happened, how she traded her pants and crop top for a bunny suit or was she wearing that expensive kimono? Oh, that would be even worse. Besides they had a cat and as much as she liked a cat, she had already three companions that she needed to take care off, oh god where was Ceres? Oh wait, she didn’t take Ceres along and she had gone two days for her wedding so Kon could go before the wedding and the children wouldn’t be alone and.. oh tomorrow was her wedding. How she had freaked out about her own wedding and now it was over and it was a perfect day that she enjoyed very much.

But that’s not why the redhead freaked out and probably woke up a few people, were it not that they were battling their own hangover while asleep. She stared at the tattoo on her right hip, oh this was disastrous, this was very, very very bad as it hurt now that she tried to rub it off. She looked up to her friend as she had this panic looked on her face, rubbed her eye, tried not to cry because that would only come because of stress and many other things and would make her look even worse like a panda. She shook her head lightly when Alisa noticed the tattoo, ”Oh it’s ridiculous, how could I have been so drunk and more importantly.” the knight said with a flare of sarcasm and anger, ”If I get my hands on the person that tattooed a drunk chick on her hip, I’m going to strangle him.” For she was almost certain for some dumb reason it was a guy, to be fair: Konstantin was written correctly. She missed the glass at water first but when she took it, she used three big gulps and finished the glass of water in no time; ”How do I get it to be removed, before the wedding, Konstantin can’t see this.”

She had not removed it before the wedding but he had only seen it after. More or less she was saved from that moment for a while.

Alice wasn’t really wondering about the cat, she had three feline like companions and even if the cat was very cute, she couldn’t use a normal cat with that and would have her hands full on that as well, especially with her hyper enthusiastic Ceres, who wasn’t invited to the party for being unable to change into a human and according to Jupiter and Hecate be like a minor. Hecate was here though and surprisingly drunk and having a hangover, it was also funny to see that she had not automatically changed back to her beast form but at this point Alice had only eyes for the tattoo on her right hip: Property of Konstantin. Oh how could someone allow a drunk woman to get a tattoo, if she was an Rune Knight and had to worry about the wellbeing of humans in such a state but she had other duties as a Holy Knight, that didn’t mean she might kick this person’s ass even if that would mean her own headache would get worse.

It was probably the alcohol but she giggled, ”I wonder how I did that. I mean it’s not the easiest name to write.” though there were always names you could write differently and in her eyes wrong: Ellis was an example of her own easy name. Or well her previous name Baskerville wasn’t that difficult either consider she would soon be Sokolov. If she only looked back at her own stupidity of that evening, it was a bit bad that she had left it on instead of immediately found someone that could remove the tattoo, she had laughed a little about it later, when Kon had seen it. But at that point in the bathroom, it was only funny because the alcohol still was in her system.

As she looked at herself in the mirror one more time, panda eyes thanks to the mascara, she felt her friends hand on her arm and turned to look at the hand and as she had wanted to look at Alisa her face, she also noticed the ring and checked her own, it didn’t even look the same but she couldn’t help to make sure she still had it. She heard Alisa mutter that she hoped she sculpted it herself and she knew her friend at the moment wasn’t someone to settle in a relationship like she was, leave out marriage; ”Keep it positive, if it wasn’t, quickly sell it and get us a cab to our own hotel.” She grinned, surely felt horrible with this headache, the tattoo and the complete mystery but she tried to see the fun in it a little, it surely had been a wild night. To be fair, she wanted to go to her own hotel to stop wearing this bunny suit~!

”We really need to trace our steps to see what happens, it’s too much of a mystery that I don’t want to carry.” She rubbed her left eye with left hand and noticed with her open right eye in the mirror a long number on her forearm, ”Only more mysteries show up.” She checked her right arm in the mirror which had also a long number, what if they were phone numbers? It seemed that these were at least with a permanent marker and not a tattoo machine with needles.

She sat down on the edge of the bath tub, looking at herself in the mirror with the lights on was quite a tough thing to do so she rather did not do that too long and the shock of the tattoo, which now throbbed lightly as she had rubbed it too harshly. She twirled a piece of red hair around her index finger and looked bemused at the marks on her arms, she had no idea, one looked more like a phone number than the other and she made an unnoticed (by herself) "hmm" sound and looked up when Alisa spoke about the ring again. "I would offer to keep it for you but this bunny suit has no pockets." To which she pointed out that it was everything but comfortable and she felt a bit embarrassed, how long had she walked around like this. She pulled on the heart shaped neckline to pull it up even if it was sitting fine enough, which said a lot for a suit like this.

She stood up soon enough again, "To find anything at all." she muttered as she followed suit to get out of the small bathroom, the light was too bad. She looked around but did not want to disturb the sleeping girls as they had no pain yet, hangovers came the moment you woke up, hit with a baseball idea. She showed Alisa not shortly after that the numbers on both her arms, "This one looks like a phone number and the other one looks like well to be frank a series of numbers random." She surely did not hope that she flirted with someone and that the person got too clingy and she as a safety net had tattood that on her hip. It would sound like a decent story of events if she was too drunk. "It could be a start." She made sure that her friends were alright, "I can barely remember who was all around." She brushed Hecate her blue hair out of her face. Arisa. Asura couldn't come, right? Snow? She froze, "I miss someone." she looked left and right to the girls in the room.

She couldn't help but laugh at the teasing comment her friend made, which she regret shortly after because of the pain in her head that came with the hangover. She really needed an asprine to work and perhaps drink some more to get the alcohol out of her system. She couldn't remember having ever such pain in her head and not being hit on it by a spell or another weapon. She looked again at the numbers, the one that looked like a phone number and a code for something she obviously couldn't remember, "I wonder how far we get." she mentioned after seeing the uneasy look from Alisa. She wanted to understand but was that all together possible? "Perhaps if we try to retrace our footsteps it's best to start at the club where we first went. I can remember a few things about that, but I have no idea what happened before we left or why we left." She frowned and looked at her reflection from the point where she could see it, at least she had no scratches or anything, the tattoo would be covered and was least of her concern, she wanted her sort of memory back. Now that she made it sound like that, she gripped the edge of the bathtub and squeezed as hard as she could. It felt a bit like amnesia all over again and it made her heart pump quicker, rush through her mind and she swallowed albeit with some difficulty. It was fine; she wasn't alone.

She quickly walked out of the bathroom when Alisa went first, trying to consider that it wasn't a weird claustrophobic feeling because she did not have that fear of small spaces, which was great, imagine if she had. As she surely felt that they were missing someone, she called out to Alisa, not even waking up the others. She looked around as well and Alice knew something was wrong as her friend spoke again and she turned a little paler considering how Alisa talked. She looked at her friends asleep and turned to look at Alisa as she heard her speak about Esperia and she quickly scanned the room, but no sign of her or the Demon Lord. "oh no, where's Esperia?" How could they forget Esperia! She felt like a horrible friend. She crossed her arms in front of her chest and held on to the opposite upper arm with either hand to guard herself to the feelings that were rushing over her.

Esperia was capable of a lot, right? She could protect herself, Asmodeus was there.

It felt so strange to have this particular headache and she did not feel comfortable enough in this hotel room as well as in the bunny suit right now to make a decision about what to do. Realizing that their friend was missing made it not even better but only worse. The throbbing pain in the back of her head was like a thing blaming her right now; every throb was a punishment. How could they lose Esperia! "Right, the reception is a very good start." How could she forget. She hoped there were some clues, she wanted to walk to the front door and get out when she again, reminded herself of the bunny suit that she was wearing. Alright, it was not a great idea to hop out of a hotel room, her face still black around her eyes because of the dammed mascara.

She quickly hurried into the bathroom again, the little cat following her, apparently in need of some attention. She removed the black lines underneath her eyes for as far as it was mascara and found her own hair tie and made a knot of her bright red hair to at least get some under control. The good thing was she had no longer the bunny ears on her head. She only needed a trenchcoat or some sorts so she could be without the suit or not show the suit for that matter. "Would the alcohol affect the Demon lord? Perhaps she is fine?" she said turning back to Alisa to try to get a little less anxious about the idea. She nodded, looking around for someone's jacket to be able to get out and hide the tattoo too, another thing.

Alice looked at the keys that Alisa held with a frown on her face, "Yes, let's go as soon as possible." She picked up the cat, "I assume you found the keys to a vehicle? How about you find it and pick me up at the entrance. I bring this little cutie to the reception to watch over it until we find the rightful place, we can't leave it here with the sleeping people, no one gives her attention." So she followed Alisa as they got out and made her way, on too high, high heels. She went to talk to the girl behind the desk there to ask for two coffee to go, a trench coat and to take care off this cat. She seemed to be surprised but Alice played the: I'm getting married soon card, to get what she want.
