Day 73

[meilleurekimiko]

The Beginning:
- 6 Police Officers are caught, stripped of their badges, and arrested for Corruption charges as they took bribes from the San Mateo cartel.
- Rai was not shown to be happy about this, as NS and Conleth had to realize.
- The water was shown to be tainted, but it was quickly fixed by Chidori getting mad as a flash of light filled the city. Many people were abducted in the process.
- Claudine would talk to Lilith and Yui after noticing she regained some height.
- Record heat is clearly felt through the dorms as Konata and several others suffer...
- Charitee would receive the Grande Exor from Galen, and a bottle of Jarritos.
- They'd notice the Interuniversal Chidorical Quarantine messages everywhere, as several people were taken away by Chidori. This actually catches Brie's attention as she talks to Amund in the main lobby (as everything else here was 4F).
- Arzu would notice because she'd rush outside all surprised. It bothers her since she felt Shimuza prolly went home and she got left behind.
- Japantown people would protest outside of City Hall over McDaniels antics as Al goes there with Japantown business owners and an attorney to discuss seizing power from McDaniels. This would also target the corruption in the City Council which would KO 52 of 54 council members.
- Niko would show up and tell Claudine that if she plans to climb the Frozen Tower, she might want to wear more clothes. Claudine tells Niko she's not planning to climb the tower today.
- With that, he takes Yui and a few others to climb the tower.
- Claudine thanks Lilith, and decides to go with her tomorrow to the tournament finale viewing in town.

Tower Climb Continued:
- Among the stuff found was a Pinto, a 1982 Chevy Cavalier, and a lot of documents, books, Ilmarinen's Mulay Doll, a pair of Hello Kitty earrings meant to go to RaZE that enhance magic capabilities, and the Principal's top secret book on his plans.
- Setsuna took 4 good pictures: The Cavalier, the top secret book they found, the deaging solution, and the Sheep Witch.
-- Oddly enough, Tourne of all people showed up to explain the solution.
- Konata's shown to be okay near the end of this run despite the heat, and once the group's done Niko crashes on his bed.

Tournament Finale Preview:
- Korani and Serisata get coverage, and we learn the finale is tomorrow ICly.
- Folks like Cron can expect a big payday out of this one.

Important:
- Hilarious enough, Claudine wearing a FE Dancer's getup hints to her new look she's using in Day 74 and beyond which clearly takes a few cues from RO Gypsys and Wanderers.
-- Its really not surprising when you consider how Lilith handled Niko criticizing Claudine's get up for the day. She's really starting to appreciate her.
- Its unclear how Claudine reacted to the Fraise III statue, but chances are she likely ignored looking at the text.
- Niko had to deal with no less than 4 gals barely wearing anything the whole day. WTH MATE.
- If Goddess K Dreamer, then City = Armageddon, If City = Armageddon, then Goddess = Dead. The Writer wants the Dreamer to live. What can you make out of this?
- Rai and Chidori have different views of justice, and it showed in her letters.
- The Editor?! WHAT?
- A succubus calling out Tourne on wearing a microkini. Hilarious.

Shoutouts/Refs:
- Dunn? Like Baxter Dunn, the San Joaquin county sheriff who was convicted of corruption?
- The OP was actually I Wish from Fushigi Yuugi (not Fake Wings, I did that to screw people up)
- The outfit Claudine used for Day 73 was this
-- Led to some Jugdral oriented shoutouts, which included the Moonlight Sword + Brave Sword combo only Leen could do if Holyn is her father.
- New River? Ewwww....not that river in Imperial County.
- 98 Degrees? NO NOT THE BOY BAND.
- "This weather has gone to the dogs!"
- ICQ was responsible for Shimuza and co. being removed from the setting? Gasp!
- RAdonal Foyle missed the dunk!
- The statues in the tower were that of Fraise III and Bit Aeonus!
- "Turn her into a Kodak Moment"
- Cal Worthington Chevrolet was an actual Sacramento dealership!
- Hilariously enough, the one "game" was Hollywood Squares' Bonus Round that they had to play on the 31st floor!
- Try Scrabble on the 30th floor!
- What about Final Jeopardy on the 29th floor?
- ED is Sekai de Ichiban Atsui Natsu by Princess Princess
