Now, this part is just inspired! The "bath beast"
fits perfectly into a Tenchi background. I think
I'd
have had it genetically engineered by Washuu,
rather
than a trained, naturally occurring beast, but it
works either way. Kudos for this!
I didn't think of Washuu, actually. I just thought
it would be funny to
have a tentacle monster type bathe somebody rather
then . . . you
know.
Though now that you mention it, I can easily see
Washuu making a
tentacle monster that bathes people. She'd probably
find it funny.
If Washuu had engineered it, though, Ayeka wouln't be
treating it as such an utterly commonplace, ordinary
thing -- and her reaction is one of the things that
makes this bit so *perfect*.
