[The shoe rack has all kinds of shoes. In fact, it seems like as soon as they think of another type of shoe to look for, it's on the next part of the rack that they look at.]
Well - not all the time. Beauty had a mirror that he could use to access other parts of the castle... I was hoping it wouldn't be anything too hard anyway.
[that's so many shoes
senri thinks idly of some shoes he's seen cheri wear before - ]
I wonder if we're supposed to take a walk in his shoes in order to trace his steps....?
[senri will gently toe off his own shoes and then go to pick up the heels and put them on? he can wear them pretty easily once he finds his balance at least
he'll try that but - ]
Oh - maybe you should think of some comfy bunny slippers, Ishirin-san! I bet Cheri likes to wear those to relax like anybody else with any sense.
Hopefully we don't both have to put them on. I don't know how you can walk in those, Nito-kun.
[while senri does his thing on the catwalk (on the catwalk)-- ishi is just trying to go back over things himself.
there's no way it's as easy as like, thinking of the door also being open. or having a handle or something. if it is I'm going to actually die ok but we're covering bases here.]
senri's and ishi's shoes sit there on the rack as nothing else changes. the costumes sit exactly where they are, in the same places as before - royalty in its place, law enforcement and military in theirs, sexy costumes all together...]
-well, you could certainly try it, if you think so.
[that's all you, kiddo]
If it has to do with picking the right clothes, then I am afraid I may not be any help, myself.
[he's still thinking, though, idly poking through the racks.
is he putting any of them on? no. is he trying on the ears from the sexy cat costume just to see how ridiculous they look on him, though? sure he is. dad's curious and leaving the actual attempts mainly to senri who actually knows what the fuck a fashion is.]
no subject
[he has just literally never asked about this because their rooms are their own business, sorry dad is not super helpful here senri,,
he also probably doesn't know that reference but he's gonna help inspect this shoe rack anyway!!]

no subject
[you know what you're supposed to do when you're going in somewhere
ishi's looking for a blank spot on the rack now, actually, toeing his own sandals off.]
no subject
ishi will find a blank spot on the rack to put his sandals on, but nothing happens when he does.]

no subject
and he exhales a relieved sigh when senri doesn't ask him to put them on too. thinking about bunny slippers it is.]
Of course. I will leave those to you.

no subject
.... hmmm.
Do you think there's magic words? Open Sesame!
Or - I'm hoooome.
[tadaimaaaa]
no subject
[but senri's the sincerity expert, comparatively, so he's not sure what he'd be able to come up with that senri wouldn't.]
If not certain words, perhaps if you just ask politely...?
[there's no way it's that easy after how quick the door was, but
worth trying!]
no subject
also i'll save you some time: asking nicely won't work either]
no subject
I dunno... Maybe it's the sound of Cheri's heels?
[he's gonna see if doing a little catwalk back over to the door will help - and also see if there's any hints by it :/ ]

no subject
the door does not swing open, and it does not magically grow a handle. nice try though, ishi]
no subject
... both of us... Ishirin-san, can you try to put my shoes on the rack too? That's probably just polite.
[senri will actually try to gently push the door open? he's not strong enough to damage it anyway but,,]
Cheri is from Japan too, so maybe we're supposed to remove our shoes entirely before going in.... He's the Prime Minister's favorite nephew!
no subject
[on the rack they go!
and he's going to just
look back over the costumes Again to try to figure out what the heck they're missing]
It would be nice if this place could give us a little more indication of just what to do, but I suppose we'll just have to keep trying?
[he's a dad not a shitposter he's DOING HIS BEST]
no subject

no subject
he's going to hum thoughtfully. experimentally, he clicks them together three times - ]
There's no place like home, there's no place like home...
[ . . . and then he'll move on!!]
Maybe if we hope for a hint, one will appear.
Cheri's a super flamboyant type of person? Maybe it's like we're acting at the end of a play....
[he'll bow in the direction of the door??]
I feel like someone should be cheering for an encore....
no subject
[a thoughtful hum, before-]
The only other thing I can think of is that you might have been right about the dresses. Maybe try that.
[he has uno hand if anyone is going to shitpost through trying things on it has to be senri
anyway he's going to try senri's other suggestion and hope the room is willing to help them buy a clue
and meanwhile:]
If nothing else, I hope he is at least entertained by this.
no subject
sadly, nothing else really appears. apparently, that power is limited to doors, clothes, and shoes.]
no subject
Cheriiii! Does he want us to put on costumes? Should we dress up like pizza delivery people and act like we're bringing a food order?
[please don't let it be that]
no subject
[that's all you, kiddo]

no subject
the door is still closed, but ishi has cat ears now, and that's really cute.]
no subject
[it's just costumes so senri doesn't care if he changes. really glad that ishi is here with cat ears and bunny slippers tbh.
he's going to go ahead and put on a familiar costume that sincerity picked out for him before
don't say a damn word teej]
I wonder if we're supposed to go see him like it's a costume party....
no subject
[absoLUTELY not.
but senri might have a point so he'll start looking for something not sexy.]
What do you suggest?
