Again, Cassie had been trying to tie a bow around a large box, but it kept slipping. She held a part of it with her elbow.
“Come on, it’s right there-” Again, there was a knock at her door and she let go of the bow, "Bruh, these guys are gonna have to really calm down with all this!" She went to her door again, but this time was met with a person who needed her to sign off on the package. He gave her a small smile before holding out the electronic pad.
"Ms. Ann right?" She nodded and signed before handing back the pen. He then handed her the box, she thought it was much lighter considering how he was holding it, but it wound up being a lot heavier and she nearly dropped it when it was handed over to her. "Have a nice day Miss!"
She hadn't said much of anything during that exchange, but she went back into her house and set the box down. This time there was a name on the outside of the box and of course,
"It's from Akuma." She said with a sigh. Cassie got her scissors and opened the box. Unlike the chocolate, she found herself disinterested with the contents of the present. "I don't know if he thinks I care about this or if he just wants to see me in that stuff, but he really need to stop cause' I have no space for this." She pulled out the first item and held it up until it came out of the box.

The entire box was filled to the brim with dresses, and by the look of it, it seemed like all the dresses were perfectly fit for her.
"I mean this one's pretty, but I have no reason or want to wear it." She decided just to pull every dress out and see if there was a note. She haphazardly threw every dress onto the floor and found a note at the bottom of the box. She read it aloud once more, "You should really think about visiting me wearing one of these- okay you fucking pervert." She threw the letter back into the box and proceeded to grab the dresses and shove them back inside the box. She then closed it back up and took the box into her room where she placed it into a corner of her room. "Could he stop sending me stuff now?" She asked no one in particular and she resumed sitting on the floor.

MeiQ: Lore of the Labyrinth
Omaros City lays near one of several Yggdrasil trees that are scattered around the world. Each tree holds an entire labyrinthine ecosystem within or beneath it, yet the mysteries of their origins and what lays in their depths are only ever unraveled by the most skilled and courageous of explorers. Exploration of Omaros' Yggdrasil labyrinth is still in its fledgling stages, drawing in many with the allure of fame and glory that has yet to be claimed. Enter the harbinger Dubhan—cheerful, determined, and not terribly skilled at thinking ahead—and warlock Allouet— intelligent and resourceful, but desperately in over his head. Together, the two of them have half an idea of what they're doing at best, but that's not going to stop them from aiming for the labyrinth's unknown depths. MeiQ is, at its core, a fanfiction inspired by the Etrian Odyssey franchise, alternatively known as Sekaiju no Meikyuu in Japan. Despite that, it is written with the intent to be enjoyable by those unfamiliar with the series as well. The characters and the city of Omaros are original, while the story draws upon lore and recurring concepts from the game series. However, Etrian Odyssey is known for its lore being sparse and open to speculation, so much of the details provided in this story are exactly that—a fan’s speculation and personal expansion of the lore. This story was also inspired by and written as part of HereBeTreasure's Fast Food Frontpage Competition, enjoy some simple dungeon exploration plot and whatever else pops up from this.
