[Ladies and gentlemen of the internet, please enjoy for your viewing pleasure, a mortified-looking Kairi wearing a bizarre dress. Those familiar with the girl know this is a far departure from the normal tank top and jean skirt she normally wears. Thankfully, whoever dressed her spared her of the hat. This does, however, also show that her face now shares the same delightful shade of red as her hair.

The sign she's holding makes it abundantly clear what is going on:

I challenged Ilya to a fight and thought I could avoid the consequences of my actions. I was wrong. Also don't you think this outfit is cute on me?

Yep, looks like Kairi's lost a bet and is learning the valuable lesson of what happens when you run your mouth.]

[...............]

You look like a Dusk.

[Thanks, Xion, that was very helpful.]

Why'd you do that, that was stupid.

[paopuprincess]

I look like an idiot.

[Because this totally wasn't deserving.]

I almost beat her, too! Next time she won't stand a chance.

[faintwaves]

Uhhhh, sorry Sis, but I doubt that. Nobody should challenge Ilya, it just can't be done.

[paopuprincess]

I help run the Training Center... if anyone should be able to, it's me.

[How is she supposed to teach people to battle if she loses like this?]

[faintwaves]

So do Riku and Sora, but they're not crazy enough to challenge Ilya either.

[Isn't Kairi supposed to be a Breeder anyway? Goodness gracious.]

[paopuprincess]

[Breeder, schmeeder, this is a matter of pride.]

Yeah but they're dorks. How else am I supposed to prove that small Pokemon are still strong?

[dressofheaven]

You look so lovely. Don't muss that up now, it took me quite a bit of effort to create a proper Einzbern family maid uniform.

[Ilya smiles fondly at Kairi from the door, grinning with just a hint of malice.]

You wouldn't believe what they try to pass off as proper maid attire around here. I'd be appalled to dress you in some of the things I saw.

[faintwaves]

Not by dressing up as a Dusk or challenging Ilya, I can tell you that much.

[paopuprincess]

[Oh she sees that stare. She knows you're enjoying this.]

Y'know, I just had some jeans and a t-shirt picked out for you.

[paopuprincess]

But she made fun of them! I had to defend their honor!

[Because there's no way she was just pushing her buttons to get a reaction, right?]

[dressofheaven]

That, dear, is simply proof that you know nothing of fashion.

[Yes, because your outfit for her is a stunning display of fashionable grace, Ilya.]

Besides, you know very well I wouldn't enjoy wearing that.

[paopuprincess]

[Ouch, Ilya. That's pretty much what she wears every day.]

I know you wouldn't. That's why it was a bet.

[Do you honestly think she likes wearing this ridiculous getup?]

[dressofheaven]

[And is she going to disagree with that statement? Cause Ilya's got news, the pink zipper dress isn't much better.]

And that's why I put you in a maid uniform. It was your pride that got you into this situation, I figure it'll be good for you to have some of it knocked out of you.

[Also she looks adorable in it.]

Besides, how can you do maid duties and not be in uniform? It just wouldn't be right.

[paopuprincess]

[But if she doesn't wear more zippers, how will people know she's grown up?]

That is just... evil. I can't believe I have to do this.

[dressofheaven]

Kairi, if you think making you be a maid for a week is evil, you have very low standards for evilness.

[Yeah that's not a distressing statement at all thanks Ilya.]

Now, I believe your first chore... yes, yes it should be taking the Pokemon for a walk.

[paopuprincess]

Okay. That shouldn't be too bad, right? Who needs walking?

[stonebird]

...Kairi? (Sansa doesn't know what to make of this video. It seems like a bet gone very wrong.)

Who is this Ilya?

[paopuprincess]

She's a friend.

[Who probably looks like she really enjoys tormenting people, she'd have to guess.]

We made a bet on who could win in a Pokemon battle.

[Aaaand you can probably tell who lost.]

[stonebird]

Is your Pokémon alright? (She softens and smiles sympathetically.)

[paopuprincess]

[She really appreciates that smile, Sansa. It helps make her feel a tiny bit less lame right now.]

Yeah, they're fine, all healed up and they're lounging around the Training Center. I'm probably going to have to start training them even harder.

...After I'm done dusting Ilya's room.

[Man this sucks.]

[stonebird]

(She doesn't think she's lame.)

You can't win every battle. Don't overwork them.

(There's a little bird she's going to have to rehabilitate soon herself.)

Ah that was part of the bet? She sounds like Arya.

[paopuprincess]

Yeah, but I really thought I had her there. We've gotta be close.

[There's always next time.]

Oh yeah? That's your sister, right?

[She remembers briefly discussing her family in the past.]

[stonebird]

I'm sure you are closer than you think.

(Keep faith in the Pokémon.)

Yes. My younger sister. She used to play pranks on me, but I returned the favor.

[paopuprincess]

Of course! It's not a good prank if you don't return the favor.

[She grins happily.]

[... Cute is... a stretch, but Draculaura wants to be super polite on everyone's choice of fashion!]

I... think it looks nice?
