April was forced to stop when Meowrin managed to get beyond arms' reach and she lost contact. Pouting, the human forced herself behind the catgirl and wrapped an arm around her, not wanting to give any major reminder of what had just happened. Not just yet, at least. Better to let her wake up properly, first, and hope that the sleep had helped with things.

Meowrin purred contently, snuggling up to April in her sleep. Her tail softly ran itself along the human's leg, and she layed her head against the smooth chest behind her. She lay there for a while, snoozing peacefully, but eventually her eyes slowly opened.
"A... April?" she murmured groggily, her eyes lighting up as she noticed the other girl was completely naked. "...Ooh, in the corridor~? How daring, eheheh~ Well, if you insi-" Her face fell the moment she noticed April's arm, and realized it hadn't been some horrid nightmare. She really had lost it... "...Oh. April... I'm... I'm so s-s-sorry..."

"Hey, don't be, it's not your fault..." April said quietly, eyes lighting up for a second before Meowrin retracted her offer. After everything else today, that would've actually been quite nice. Actually... "I think I know a way that we can both get used to this... and at least accept it without your getting upset like this all the time. It would also make today at least somewhat better... want to go somewhere private?"

"Still..." She couldn't help it. All through her head, all she could think about is how this wouldn't have happened if she'd been there, how she could've stopped it, how she would've just annihilated the decrepit monster with but a flick of her wrist, how... She was an Overlord, she was supposed to be able to stop this kind of thing from happening! And if she couldn't save the people dearest to her, how could she expect to help anyone else? She'd never been this tense before in her life. She needed something to take her mind off this, anything that would make her think of something other than how she'd failed her friend when she was most needed...
"Um... Oh, um..." She couldn't help but blush at what April was implying. Well, it was a tried and tested method of relieving tension, after all... "...Alright then. Let's... Let's just head up to my room, okay?"

"Yeah... lead the way, I don't exactly have anywhere to keep a key at the moment," April replied, smirking mischievously as she climbed unsteadily to her feet, gesturing with her hand at her current state of dress--or rather, lack of it. She half-wondered if her friend had discovered anything new but... she rather doubted it, really, it seemed unlikely that there was that much left the pair of them hadn't tried that didn't need other partners on hand...

Catsmiling in return, Meowrin got to her feet as well and lifted April up into a princess carry. After taking a moment to make sure she was steady (as well as to feel her up a bit; old habits die hard, especially when given no reason to die), she swiftly headed up to her room. It didn't take long at all; after all, with her strength she may as well have been carrying a ragdoll rather than a human.
Her room wasn't exactly what you would've expected from an Overlord, really. Aside from the comfy looking bed and the numerous piles of random objects lying around, it was rather sparsely furnished. Really, it wasn't even the room that was designed to be hers. That room was instead occupied by Anno and Rain whenever they were staying in the castle; Meowrin wanted this room and this room in particular because of one reason.
Oh, that spectacular view! Upon entering one could see straight out the window and be met with the most amazing view of the Netherworld's most notable landmark. Rising up like a sugary Everest was the famous Mt. Pavlova, something that the constructors of this world had thrown in as a joke but had gone on to be the most beloved part of the whole miniature planet. And to think, some people thought a mountain made entirely of meringue was just silly.
"Heh, I never get sick of that view," Meowrin whispered whimsically, although whether she was referring to the sun setting atop Mt. Pavlova or the naked girl she had placed on her bed was a mystery. "Heh... I thought we'd all be safe if we moved here, y'know that? If... If me and my friends all shacked up here, we wouldn't have to worry about all the bad stuff out there. Wasn't that the whole point of this? I just wanted everyone to be safe and happy, that's all..."

"Hey, stop worrying, there's nothing that can harm any of us when we're here, and I'm not planning to leave again for a while. I just... couldn't leave Zouken when there was a chance to kill him," April murmured, nuzzling against the catgirl's neck after pulling her onto the bed as well, "Come on, less thinking and more having fun, you know you want to. I think it's been days, right?"

"Heh, you know better than anyone that I can't stop worrying~" Meowrin purred, as she wrapped her tail around April's waist, and ran a finger along her long, slender legs. "But... I'll try better from now on. Sorry..."
She gave the silver haired girl a playful kiss on the forehead, and giggled mischievously. "As you wish~ Got anything in mind~?"
She was right. Now wasn't the time for thinking, now was the time to just let go of all worries and have some fun. And it had been days since the last time she'd had any, so...

"No, no, I've got nothing in mind... just do whatever you think's fun... well, if it doesn't hurt, I've had enough pain for one day," April joked. Laughter was the best medicine, right? There was even empirical evidence for it! "You don't have to be that gentle, though... just have fun, and make the most of it."
She should probably have chosen her words more carefully.
Five Days Later...
(Umm... it's probably beyond this point that other people start showing up, assuming Rain's told 'em, but let Meowrin and April get dressed first, 'kay? =P)

Well that was... Interesting, to say the least. At least she wasn't so tense anymore... But it was a testament to how bad she'd been shaken by this that she'd ended up spending five days, five whole days going at it to fully relieve her tension. She'd really have to come up with some new ideas for next time, seeing how she'd already exhausted everything she'd wanted to try out.
"Um... Hey, um..." she whispered, gently stroking April's waist. The bed seemed far too comfy to get off, and she did rather enjoy looking at her sleeping so peacefully, but... They'd been in here for five days already. The others might start worrying if they stay any longer. "Um... April, um..."
She couldn't help it. She looked so cute and peaceful right now... She didn't have the heart to wake her up. Instead, she simply hugged the one-armed girl, letting her use her ample bosom as a pillow until she woke up by herself.

April remained asleep for quite some time after that. Part of it was that five days, Servant stamina or not, was a bit overkill (and she'd pretty much run out of sufficient energy to really reciprocate after the first three). The other part was that the healing didn't seem to have replaced all the blood she had lost... that and needing food. The result was that, when she actually woke up, April blinked a few times and wondered just what she was sucking on so insistently before...
"H-Hey, M-Moe..."

"...You're not going to get any milk, no matter how hard you suck there," Meowrin giggled, stroking the long silver hair in front of her. "Um... So, uh... That was, um... Something, ahah~ Sorry, I must've gotten a little carried away there..."
The Overlord wrapped an arm around April, and let her lay on top of her as she hugged her from behind. Gently, she pressed her lips against the sometimes-pixie's forehead and giggled some more.
"So... Hungry? That... Probably took a lot of energy, after all, eheheh~"

"Yeah... hey, if I put on the Fire Rat's Robe, will you help me with the obi? I don't have any other clothes here, so it's that or go look for food naked," April said, completely seriously and turning so that she was propped up on her elbow, "Rain's going to have told people by now, so... this is going to be a really busy day, isn't it? Just hope someone had the sense to bring presents. Ahahahah~"

"Not just Rain, ahah..." Meowrin replied, leaning up just a little bit. "One thing I've learned from being an Overlord is that there are few things demons love more than gossip. Chances are Camphor's already spread the news over half the Netherworld by now, ahah."
She ran a hand down to April's waist, and began tracing circles on her hip. "To be fair, I don't have any problems with you doing it naked, eheh~ But I suppose we should probably keep up appearances... And you know how I feel about kimonos, eheh~ Sure, I'll help."

The castle's doorbell (or equivalent thereof) rang. There was a Prinny outside with a package bearing the logo of Anny's resort double checking an address before ringing it again.

"Not as if I'd mind doing it naked," April said conversationally, climbing unsteadily to her feet (damn it, that hurt more than it should... just what had Moe been doing whilst she was mostly out of things?) and draping the robe over her shoulders. Arm in, other sleeve at least vaguely in the right place, and obi... hanging uselessly on her hand as the white-haired girl turned to her friend with a pleading look.

"Um, right, let's see..." Getting to her feet, Meowrin began awkwardly fumbling with the obi. Even after all this time, she'd never actually tried tying it before... After a few failed attempts it seemed like she'd finally got it, but...
"Um... I think that's it?"
Answering the door was another Prinny, this one purple in colouration, marking it out as one of the higher tier Prinnies. Yes, a high tier Prinny, potentially a great asset as an ally and a formidable force in battle, and they just have him answer the door.
"'Sup, dood!" The Prinny said, as he peered out at the other Prinny and began checking his cue cards. "Um... What was it again... Right, dood! State your business and/or intent, dood!"

"It'll do, I guess," April replied, sighing--she was going to have to relearn how to tie these things herself, which was annoying, or cheat and find something else that could do it--and leading the way out of the room, still rather unsteady, "... Moe, just how long did we spend doing that?"

The prinny held the package, mildly awed by the high-tier Prinny before him. Not as awesome as a Prinny Desparado like menchet, but still cool.
"Nothin' much dood! Mrs. Starte heard about the missing arm thing and sent a package to April, dood. She also said to tell them she's sorry she couldn't come in person, but the letter should explain why, dood."

"Um, well..." Meowrin laughed nervously, as she followed April out of the room, her eyes firmly affixed to the area they always were. Heh, April has such a cute butt~ "Well, um, we did get a little carried away, and, um, we had a lot of tension to work out, so, um, uh..."
"Um... If I'm right, then roughly... Five days."
"Alright, dood!" The purple Prinny replied, before bringing out a checklist. "Hmmm... Everything seems to be in order, dood... Just leave the package here and we'll make sure Lady April gets it, dood!"
Putting the checklist to one side, the Prinny sighed. "Hopefully it'll cheer her up, dood... Rumour has it she locked herself up and hasn't come out since the accident, dood... And we haven't seen Mast- Um, I mean, we haven't seen Meowrin anywhere since either, dood..."

April came to a dead halt and turned her head, affixing the catgirl with a stunned look... and then frowning, "So that's why my butt's so sore..."
Not wanting to try the stairs with her balance as of as it currently was, the white-haired girl shrunk, and shrunk, and shrunk. Interestingly, the robe shrunk with her--though getting that to work had taken weeks. Not waiting for permission, she nestled herself into Meowrin's breasts, getting as comfortable as she could, and waited for some sort of response.

"Five days is a long time dood. Maybe they're just keeping each other company, dood? Anyway, here's the package, so bye dood!"
The Prinny took a cell phone from its fannypack and headed into a portal- on the other side, an enormous ferris wheel could be seen as the portal closed.

Anno was frantic. She stopped only a moment when she saw one prinny pass through a portal, and the other at the door, nearly shaking as she paused. She had heard about what had happened to April, and no amount of calming attempts from anyone had calmed her down for nearly five days straight. She was absolutely terrified for her friend, and wanted to get inside and see her as soon as possible.
"H-hello?!" she called to the prinny, "A-April is h-here, right? I-is sh-she okay, c-can I see her!?"

"Hey, you were really into it at the time, eheh~" Meowrin couldn't stop giggling today. Then again, the past five days had pretty much demolished any bad feelings she'd had, especially since April had finally let her try out that thing with the-
"Ahn!" She let out a short yelp as the pixie lept into her cleavage. Her body was still rather sensitive after what had just happened. "And here I was thinking you'd get bored of that after a while. Heh, guess I'm just glad my boobs are so comfortable that you keep coming back to them even after all these years~"
"Later, dood!" The purple Prinny gave his fellow penguin a salute as he headed off, and was about to check over the package when a short, glasses wearing girl called out to her.
"Oh, Lady Anno, dood! It's a pleasure to see you, dood," he replied, giving another salute. He knew Anno was one of Meowrin's closest friends, so treating her with respect was only to be expected. Not to mention she was far less scary than her girlfriend... "As far as I know, Lady April's still locked herself away, dood. We're hoping Mast- I mean, Meowrin is taking care of her, dood, but..."

"That would be like getting bored of a comfortable chair," April argued, smirking and, as she usually did, closing her eyes, "Or would it be a luxury car? To be honest, I'm not really sure which is a more appropriate description."
Frowning, the white-haired pixie tried to work out what sort of food was likely to be served. She kind of hoped that it was something that could be eaten with a spoon or chopsticks... though the spoon would be easier, the latter also only necessitated one hand and was more likely to be something filling but tasty (rather than filling but bland or tasty but empty).

"C-can I come it?" asked Anno, shuddering as she stepped closer. She just wanted to see if her friend was alright, now... "P-please, I just... I'm s-scared, I... I want to make sure she's okay."

"Heh, is that all I am to you~? Just a comfy seat that occasionally pokes you in the butt~?" Meowrin teased, as she head towards the kitchens. Surely whoever was on staff today would fix them up something nice. "Hmmm, can't remember whose shift it was today..."
The familiar sight of a certain samurai greeted them as they entered the kitchen, and Meowrin's face fell for the first time this morning upon realising that they'd most likely be having Japanese. As much as she love the culture, both popular and otherwise, of that bow shaped archipelago, she still wasn't entirely fond of their cuisine. Oh well, at least she could always have teriyaki or something...
"Ah, Nyaorin-sama, April-san!" Ryuuzaki's normally coolheaded persona broke somewhat, and she gave the two a warm smile. Like pretty much all of the demons on this Netherworld, she'd been worried about April. "It is good to see you two outside. Would you like this one to prepare a meal for you?"
"Sure thing, dood!" The Prinny tapped a code into a panel on the wall, and the main entrance to the castle opened up with a roar. "We're all worried about her too, dood. But I'm sure seeing you will at least cheer her up a bit, dood."
Before Anno could enter the main hall, however, the Prinny handed her the package that had been delivered earlier. "If it's not too much trouble, could you take this to her, dood? Normally we'd wait for a courier to come down to pick it up, but since you're going up there already, dood..."

"Yes, please, Ryuuzaki," April said, not daunted by the prospect of Japanese cuisine--much in opposition to Meowrin, though that was likely more because she wasn't so worked up about it. Food was food, even the unpleasant stuff was bearable, and that tended to be a whole lot of it. Really, you'd think the easy availability of good food would improve things somewhat... but when you had a shiny bastard in your head criticising everything you ate, it began to seem somewhat tedious, though it occasionally lead to having some things to suggest. Mostly, though? It was like having the most zealous food critic in your brain.

"... I... um, o-okay," Anno took the package awkwardly, hands shaking as she did. She hadn't even seen April, and had been high-strung and in a panic for days. No-one had been able to calm her down. Not after she heard that one of her closest friends had gotten such a terrible injury. Without another word, she attempted to hurry past the prinny to get inside. She desperately wanted to see how April was doing...

"Um... Sure, Ryuuzaki. Just make me, um..."
"...Teriyaki chicken?" The samurai finished for Meowrin. She'd already began preparing the meal whilst they were talking. "This one has long since noticed your... General distaste for my homeland's cuisine, Nyaorin-sama. As for April-san... This one will be sure to prepare something delicious for you."
What followed was a rather spectacular display, where Ryuuzaki combined both her knowledge of cooking and her skills as a samurai to prepare the meal. Meat, fish and vegetables were tossed high above her, only to be perfectly sliced in mid-air and land in neat little piles on the worktop. It didn't take long before the two girls each had a delicious meal set in front of them, piled high to appease a literally demonic appetite.
"Please, enjoy your meal," Ryuuzaki bowed deeply, before returning to the worktop. She still had to prepare meals for the other residents of the castle, after all.
"Well, um..." Meowrin's smile returned to her as she inhaled the delicious smell of the teriyaki. "Um... Itadakimasu, I guess~"
As Anno wandered through the castle, she would hear the occasional snippet of gossip from demons that she passed by...
"Did you hear? April's came out of hiding!"
"Really? Um... I think I heard Salt say something like, that, but..."
"No, really! I heard she and Mast- Um... Uh... And Meowrin were headed to the kitchen!"
"Wow, guess she must be hungry after five days..."
