Naoko had only had a few bites and he looked up at his brother with eyes that plainly begged for him to at least get to finish his breakfast.
It was a look that Sai had seen many many times in their childhood.
Chewing quickly, the blond sighed. "Yes well maybe we should just pick another closet in this house, because there are a ton of them you know, and just stock it with your clothes?" he asked, tilting his head slightly at the idea. "Unless... you'd rather wear one of my creations..."
Oh there was a wicked smirk on the pianist's lips now. He set his food up and grabbed Sai by the shoulders, pinning him to the bed again and laying on his chest, rather comfortable.
"What do you think, Ko-kun? Should we dress your uncle in one of my kimonos?" the pianist asked with a devious wink.

Sai rolled his eyes as if to say, Ok finish first. Then he laughed, "Yes, I suppose we could." He didn't mention his private home just a few houses away. His clothes were there mostly. That house he kept completely to himself except Takagi-san. That had been necessary for Ko. But now that things were more in the open he wondered if it had really been necessary.
"Wait...what!? Wear what!?" questioned Sai as he fell on the bed when Naoko pushed him down.
"YES! We should dress him up!" squealed Ko as he set down his empty cup and bowl to help Naoko hold Sai down. "Lets make him look pretty!!"
"No wait I'm not pretty I'm handsome." asserted Sai as lay there with both holding him down. He didn't struggle but he thought about tickling them both.
"Oh...that's right men are suppose to be handsome." Ko remembered Sensei You's description of both words. "But let's dress Uncle Sai up!"

Naoko laughed, "I'll make you look like the most handsome geisha ever." he teased with a wink, grabbing Sai by his wrists and pulling the man into a sitting position... that soon turned into the blond pulling him to his feet and dragging his poor older brother after him.
"Besides, after all those frilly dresses you made me wear when I was poor Ko-kun's age... I think you deserve a little payback." the pianist laughed, a truly happy smile on his face as he pulled Sai down the hall and into the crazy Egyptian motif room that he'd picked out.
A few seconds later he had Sai standing in front of a full body mirror, while he rummaged through the closet that now held most of his creations.
At least... all the ones that he hadn't given to people as gifts.
"What color, Ko-kun?" he asked the boy, wanting the child's input into this most devious of schemes.

"Geisha?! No...not a geisha!" Sai wasn't going for that idea at all but he still allowed Naoko to drag him along to his own bed room. "Whoa...you've got a....golden room. Egyptian! Why? Why Shou....can't you make just one reasonable room? Do you really like this room?" he asked Naoko seriously as he stood in front of the full mirror.
Ko was pushing on Sai's butt the whole way to Naoko's room. And once they were inside he scooted out from behind Sai and peeked in Naoko's big closet. It wasn't as big as Shou's but seriously it still was a good size. "Umm...Orange or Blue!"
Sai looked down at the boy wondering why those colors. Would those colors even look good on him? "I don't want to look like a girl!"

Naoko suddenly paused, thinking about this logically for a moment. He grabbed a sash and walked back into his room.
"Hold still." the blond spoke, moving Sai's hair out of the way so he could tie the sash around the man's eyes. "I don't want you peeking until I'm done. Ko-kun, make sure he doesn't take this off, ne?"
Lithe fingers with purple nails were quickly making sure the sash wouldn't fall off and couldn't be seen through. "I like this room. Better than the basement anyway. It's creepy down there. Besides, I think better here than I have anywhere in a long time. All the gaudy gold and bright colors just..." Naoko shrugged, finishing with the sash and going back into the closet. "I think it helps my fashion sense. Hmmm... orenji... aoi... yes, definitely orange. AH!"
He walked back out with... half a kimono?
Okay so maybe it wasn't a perfect kimono... but it was something Naoko had designed recently and while not as flashy as his purple one from New Years... this one certainly made a statement.
Carefully be made sure Sai was completely down to his boxers... then he began to dress his brother.
"Breathe in." Naoko ordered... and when Sai did that he pulled some strings in the back tight, making the corset section of the kimono cinch up nicely. The sleeves were the perfect length, and the black trim at the bottom just BARELY covered the boxers from view.
Naoko disappeared in the closet again for a moment before bringing back with him a matching orange colored rose hair ornament. He quickly fluffed Sai's hair up nicely, inserting the bobby-pinned flower in the side.
With a smile... the younger Oumori grabbed his cellphone and took a picture... then finally, untied the sash over his brother's eyes. Standing behind him, hands on Sai's shoulders, Naoko smiled.
"Sugoi... you're gorgeous, niisan... I think I should dress you up more often."
(((OOC: Yes, Naoko just put this on his brother... http://img.zentaimorphsuit.com/6/6a/6aa/l/b6d6c442a2f9b490209840713af06b57.jpg )))

Ko watched Sai carefully making sure he didn't peek and Sai just stood there shaking his head. Ok so he'd let Naoko play for a short time so he allowed himself to be blindfolded. "Why would you stay in the basement here? I don't think there is a bedroom down there."
But as the clothes were going on, Sai could already guess he wasn't going to like this one bit. He felt a draft around his legs and he certainly wasn't pleased with the corset. Sai sucked in breath as the corset when on then said, "There best be pants with whatever this is or I'm going to be removing it as quickly as you put me in it."
Sai wasn't one for embarrassing clothing or wild fashion on himself, even if he liked dressing Naoko up in frilly clothes as a child.And as the sash came off his eyes, he stared at himself long enough to say, "Ah...I see. This will look great on a woman."
Ko burst into laughter even as Sai kept a very straight face. "You look pretty Uncle Sai."
"Umm...yes... now it's time to take this off. No...I don't think that I'll be wearing anything like this in the near future. So enjoy these few seconds while you can." Sai definitely was not Shou in regards to clothes.
"Awh...Uncle Sai. But I think it looks nice." Ko said with a bright smile as he giggle. Sai looked girly!
Sai wasn't pleased at all with the look but he tried to take it in stride. Maybe he deserved it for the years of dressing Naoko up in frilly things but to be honest he thought frilly dresses were far more stylish than this. This was an outfit more for...maybe bedroom adventures not for a proper tea party.

Naoko rolled his eyes as he pushed his glasses up on his nose a bit further. "Spoiled sport. FINE... wait while I get the rest of the outfit."
Because yes there WAS more. He just wanted to see what his brother would do with this bit.
Heading back into the closet, it took the blond about a minute and a half before he came back out. Not only was he holding a pair of slightly puffy orange pants made out of the same material.
But... the pianist himself was wearing an outfit exactly like the one Sai had on.
Only red.
And he'd gone ahead and put the pants on... and the flower in his hair.
"See. This isn't so bad." Naoko spoke, twirling in a circle. "And it's actually rather comfortable and roomy." he added, handing the pants to Sai so he could dress. "It could be something to wear out... or just lounge around in."
Smiling, the younger Oumori brother stepped up next to his niisan and snapped another picture with his phone of the two of them (though the pianist took off his glasses so he and Sai looked practically identical).
"As for the basement... maybe it wasn't a basement bedroom..." he tapped his lip and chin with one purple nail. "But it was like a haunted house and I think basements are creepy anyway so... guess my mind just put them together. I really would like to avoid a haunted house bedroom thanks. I've enough nightmares... don't want to add to them."

"Spoiled sport? I always dressed you up in very pretty dresses. This looks more like lingerie."
"Lin...ling...lingerie?" Ko asked uncertain of what that word was.
"Girls' sleepwear." answered Sai not relating the more sexy side of the word. As soon as Naoko pulled out the pants this didn't make things much better but he pulled them on for Naoko's amusement. "You'd wear this out somewhere? Where? A bar? I don't think I'd be wearing this anywhere any time soon."
He smiled for the camera just so Naoko's memory of this moment would be a complete waste. "How can you lounge around in a corset? Seriously Naoko I think you're thinking of the wrong market for these. Unless a woman wants to lounge around in a corset I don't think a man would."
They did look a lot a like when Shou wasn't covered with makeup and masks. Shou made a lot of effort to look like a mystery. But Sai looked a lot like Naoko with maybe a little more masculine features. Although right now, dressed as girly as this, they did look very close.
Ko walked around and looked at the two of them. "You both look pretty. Do I get to wear one too?!"
Sai glanced at Naoko and crossed his arms trying to get even remotely comfortable in the corset, "So you making these in kid size too?"

"It is not lingerie." Naoko replied, rolling his eyes. "Besides, it's just a little shorter than what I wore for New Years." he added, and as if to emphasize his point, the blond scrolled through his phone's pictures and then displayed said outfit for Sai. "I designed this as uni-sex, you know. Thus the pants. It has short shorts too and of course you'd wear it to a bar or a club. Provided you've the legs for it."
Amber eyes traveled down and checked out his brother's legs in the mirror. "And yep, you do. Well, we do. Ah..." Ko-kun's question puzzled him for a moment. "I haven't made a child's version... and part of me fears if I did it might not go over so well. Kids dont need to look sexy, after all." he added with a wink to the boy. "And... wait what?!"
Naoko was suddenly starring directly at his brother. "Are you insane? After all the corsets you stuck me in with those frilly dresses! They aren't that bad and if it's too tight, just loosen it. It's more for visual effect than anything else. Not like we need it as a bodice or anything." sighing, the younger Oumori brother crossed his arms over his chest and pouted for a moment. "Does this mean I have to design manly things for you only? I like it when you look pretty..."

A little shorter? Any shorter and my boxers would be catching more than a breeze." Sai said tactfully considering Ko was in the room. He had a much more vivid description but he couldn't use it right now.
"Of course I have the legs. I've got dancers legs. Fine things they are since Shou works out like a beast for tours. You better prepare yourself for that Naoko. Because by the time he's done you'll be firm all over." pointed out Sai with a finger as he snapped the pant waistband. He gained a lot of muscle every time Shou toured. Hated being so sore some days when Shou worked too hard and Sai came out. His other self had an image to maintain. But on Sai's side, the investors didn't care as much about the look as the money.
"Awh! I want to wear something cool." pout Ko as he watch the two men banter.
Sai rolled his eyes at Naoko, "I dressed you in prim and proper frilled dresses with corsets. Not bar clothing. How could you do tea in this? Seriously?" Sai was kind of a prude in some ways. He really needed to loosen up. But then again Shou on the other hand was the other extreme.
"Yes, I like masculine clothes. Goodness. When do you ever see me dress up in things like this?" he shook his head and then said with a smile, "But I think this will sell to the right audience. I'm definitely not the right audience but it is well made and the colors are fun." He didn't want to be a complete jerk because business wise, he thought it was terrific that Naoko was doing this. "And if you take out the low cut collar and make these kid sized they might sell too."

He hurt so badly... and yet, the pain in comparison to the agony he remembered from years ago...
This was nothing.
Dark eyes opened and for a moment, Azriel was confused as to where he was... who's bed he was in... Then he remembered throwing up and one hand moved to his throat, black nails touching it gingerly. It felt scratched inside... rough and painful... but his voice came out just fine in a few hums, though it did hurt a bit. Katsumi knew he was at the house which Izo had kept for Kaori, for his mother. He recalled the conversation about the piano and the kitchen and where the bathroom was and all of that...
And for a moment, the bat wondered if Izo were asleep.
Creeping to his feet, careful not to fall, Katsu used the wall as a guided support and carefully began to walk and to explore this most curious home; a home that just didn't suit what the young man knew of the spider.
He passed the bathroom... bypassed the kitchen... saw the piano... and then found Matsumoto's room on the other end of the house.
Carefully, making not a single sound, Katsumi's bare feet lead him to standing in Izo's bedroom. The man was asleep, and for a moment, Azriel couldn't help but stare at him. This man was his father... he was to blame for everything that the bat had been through... every hell... every experiment... every single moment of agony that had plagued the young man for his entire life. And yet... this man gave him a new life... Azriel was well on his way to being a wealthy vocalist. He had a home and a best friend and a pet.
Katsu could end it all now... couldn't he? He could just reach out and smother the spider in his sleep... couldn't he?
Lithe fingers moved closer to Izo, but Katsumi hesitated and then smiled softly. Izo had proven the day before that he was a man true to his word... he had stayed by his son... had brought him here, to this beautiful house... Matsumoto hadn't left him to the cold and the dark and the blood and the pain.
Not this time.
Long nails traced the comforter of the bed and soon Azriel grasped the edge of it in his fingers, drawing the blanket up farther until he had properly 'tucked' Izo in. Then, the vocalist turned on his heal and headed back out of the bedroom.
He would see the piano instead. Let the lyrics flow from his mind and forget about the sleeping spider for now... forget about his own pain...
Sitting down at the keys, Katsumi looked through the sheets of music that sat on the stand. They were hand drawn lines, and at first, Azriel couldn't read them. He'd been studying piano recently however, trying to memorize which keys went with which lines and what the names were.
Then it hit him.
Like a door opening in his mind.
He could see the piano beginner's book. Lithe fingers reached out and grabbed spare blank sheets of composition paper and a pencil left on the stand itself... a pencil with a slightly chewed end.
Fingers moved swiftly as Katsu copied the original music... but this time he wrote letters above the notes. He could see where those letters went on the piano's keys... and he could see what letters belonged to which notes.
Ten minutes later, the composition was finished. A perfect copy of the original with letters above them. Thus, the bat placed his fingers on the keys and slowly began to play through the song. He was very far from composing his own music... but Katsumi couldn't help smiling. He was playing a song! A real actual song! All by himself!
But something about it was... familiar...
Something...
Dark eyes closed for a moment, though his fingers kept moving. Words left his lips... words that he remembered as a very small boy...
A lullaby that his mother used to sing to him.
Only to him.
Whenever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy?
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar
My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you?
Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer
So let me come to you
Close as I want to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I love your peaceful eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you?
Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if you're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming
Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then I will know
that you are no dreamer
As the song ended and the music from his fingers faded away, Katsumi smiled softly again. He felt so sad... and yet... happy. The young man remembered his mother singing this song in English to him... she must have written it and this piano music was her own composition.
 (((OOC: The song is "Eyes On Me" from "Final Fantasy VIII")))

Chairman - SMASH
The itsy bitsy spider...
Izo woke to a sound, a old memory....a fleeting glimpse of her laughter. This loving house sometimes plagued him with the past he could never release or relive but still he kept it. And the gentle sounds that filtered into his ears this day were sweet and soft. The way things should have been when he was young.
The older spider's eyes opened breaking the veil of sleep only to find that the sounds remained and formed into song. It wasn't a woman's voice but that of a young man's. Katsumi was singing it. He sat up in the bed and rubbed his tired eyes although he didn't leap out of bed to run to that room. He knew better than to break the spell. Spiders always broke the sanctity of a pure moment. He wouldn't venture there. Instead he leaned back upon the head board and closed his eyes letting his mind see her visions in his head. If only for a short time.

"Mmmm... I might take that into consideration." Naoko replied with a slight smile because at least his brother was complimenting the outfit.
Even if he didn't want to personally wear it.
"Will you at least lounge in the kimono I gave you?" the blond asked seriously, putting an arm around his brother's shoulders. "It's more comfortable than the corset. I promise. And I want you to relax a little today. Besides... if Ishihara-san were to see you in the kimono, he wouldn't think twice about if you're Shou-san or not. I can do your makeup too. That way you won't have to wear a mask today either."
Sighing to himself, Azriel watched his long fingers soundlessly touch the keys on the piano. His black nails tapping just lightly on the ebony and ivory beneath his grasp.
His mother's song...
Was it his song now?
He could see words on the original score, but he couldn't read them. English he could speak yes but read it... impossible.
There were so many things he didn't know... so many things he now remembered that he wished he had known before. This beautiful warm place...
For a bat who feared the cold more than anything... he loved this house.
The smell reminded him of childhood and the feelings he felt from these light walls...
Smiling, Azriel closed the piano lid and rested his arms on top. He leaned his head onto those arms and just lay there, dark eyes closed for what seemed like an eternity.
He lay there... and he remembered...

"In the kimono...yes." answered Sai as he tried to maneuver around in the corset. He wanted out! This outfit made him feel fussy and uncomfortable. Not relaxing at all. "Well I definitely want him to think I'm Shou. I don't need anyone asking questions."
"Wait...are you sure you can put enough makeup on me so I look right? I know Shou does it but I don't...I'm terrible at it." he asked and Ko started to giggle again.
"Uncle Sai, you need to relax. Uncle Naoko has skills! Umm...but maybe we should get Uncle Sai out of this outfit and into the kimono. Ishihara Sensei will be here in a little while." said Ko as he reached up and tried to figure out how to tie the corset.

The itsy bitsy spider...
As soon as it became quiet, the spider slowly rose from his bed. Seemed like he'd never be able to get rid of this home now that Katsumi had been here. Maybe it was Izo's own way of finding an excuse not to let it go. He doubted he could really anyway.
Walking into his shower, he washed and then dressed before wandering out to the piano's room to peek in on his son. Resting on the keyboard. Just like his mother did years ago but back then a baby cradle was near by. The light weight white curtains were in this room too. The piano wasn't a dark wood but a lighter more feminine wood that reminded Izo of her preferences. This house had her touch all over it.
He slowly backed away from the room and walked to the kitchen to prepare coffee. Izo needed it and a cigar. But he'd smoke that outside in the back. She always hated it in her home. But...she never minded the smell of it on his skin. He knew she just didn't want it to ruin the other refreshing scents. Her scents.
So as the coffee perked he smoked in the back. Felt like old times but without her laughter. Although he had and echo of her song in his head once more via his son's sweet voice.

Katsumi felt the man's presence in the room, but the bat didn't stir. He remained... eyes closed... because this was such a comfortable place and he couldn't really understand why.
Perhaps he had been too young to remember being here in particular... he could recall the smells and the sounds... the warmth... that underlying comfort and serenity.
He could hear the coffee being made... could hear Izo going out the back door...
Dark eyes opened and for a moment, he didn't move. Then the bat stretched and sat up. His throat hurt and the young man didn't feel like singing again...
Not when there was a beautiful voice in his head singing instead.
So, Azriel opened the piano again and, once more, began to play that same song. Each time there was a bit of improvement... a note sharpened. Practice made perfect after all.
And in his mind he could hear his mother singing... and strangely... it made Katsumi very happy.
"Trust me, niisan. I put makeup on for a living, remember?" Naoko spoke with a smile before moving behind his brother and helping Ko with the laces. "Now, Ko-kun... dressing like this isn't completely normal. Neither is dressing like Shou though so..." he shrugged slightly. "You, kiddo, have to find your own sense of style. What's comfortable to you and what you think you look good in. What makes you happy to wear." the blond added, smiling to the boy as he finally unlaced his brother. "I... am going to wear this today. Though..." with a mischievous smirk, Naoko slipped back into the closet.
He came out a few seconds later wearing red short shorts instead of pants... shorts that easily showed off his slender legs.
"You're not the only one with dancer's legs. I think I can keep up with Shou, niisan." the pianist spoke with a wink. "Now let's get you dressed and get some makeup on, hmm?"
