Disclaimer: If I owned DGM every other episode would be chock full of Komui goodness, or the science department would have their own spin off series. Sadly, I do not own them.

A/N: Yeong-mi is a friend of mine. She is off in South Korea visiting her grandparents and I miss her. So I decided to model a member of the Asia Brach after her. She also inspired this fic by making me coffee scented soap. The lemon is in the next chapter. The more reviews I get, the faster I will finish it (but I have started it).

Reever looked over his shoulder and sighed. Yeong-mi was back again, lurking in the shadows cast by mountains of paperwork and books. She did not even try to hide that she had been stalking him ever since she was transferred from the Asia Branch. She had been gone most of the morning and poor Reever had begun hoping that he had finally gotten rid of her. No such luck. 'Oh well,' he conceded internally, 'She always knows where Komui is, so I guess she's useful. She probably just wants to help.'

Besides, she was more than happy to help. In fact, when Reever asked about the supervisor's whereabouts, Yeong-mi gave Reever a smile so creepy it gave Johnny nightmares (when he drifted off at his desk that is). However, Reever, having dealt with Komui's particular brand of crazy for so long, didn't even notice.

A good three hours later, Reever was finishing a particularly complex chemical formula, when Komui flailed into the department in hysterics. Apparently, his latest Komurin, who was still in development, had suddenly activated itself; it escaped the lab and went crazy. The Order's entire coffee supply had been destroyed before Allen could vanquish the metal monstrosity. Reever had a feeling that Komui would be in a whole heap of trouble when Lenalee got back from her mission.

Yeong-mi, for her part, made a large show of gasping in surprise and shock while hiding a suspicious looking remote control behind her back. She jumped up and ran over to comfort Komui. Only Reever saw the evil grin she sent his way as she 'tripped.' She reached out and caught herself on a pile of books that miraculously slid in just such a way that a canister of pink goo was launched at Reever. Its lid came off midflight, the Aussie saw it but he could not escape. The peachy sludge covered him with a sickeningly satisfying gloosh.

*******

Reever sighed contentedly as he sunk into the steamy water of his bath. It really had been a while. Usually all he had time for was a quick birdbath at a sink or a brief shower if he was lucky. He could no longer find his soap but there was a large, dark brown bar that would probably do just as well.

Once Reever had rubbed his skin raw getting all the offending pink goop off him, he took a moment to just relax. A few finders had been sent off to fetch some coffee. They weren't expected back for a few hours and he didn't expect that any work would get done in the meantime… Reever paused in his train of thought. He swore he could smell coffee. It made him question his sanity, and not for the first time. Oh no, his mental state was examined many times a day. The coffee scent continued to get stronger. Suddenly the soap on his skin began to foam in earnest and a ghostly girlish giggle echoed through the men's bath, sending a chill down Reever's spine.

Reever brought the cake of soap closer to his nose and sniffed it cautiously. He swore. The 'soap' had obviously been created and perfumed by some twisted mad scientist (not that those were hard to come by at the Order or anything but still…).

********

A pissed and very exasperated Reever stepped out of the bath positively reeking of coffee. He drug his hand through his hair (which for once wasn't an unruly mop) and got dressed, intending to go straight back to work as a way to quash some of his frustration. As he walked down the hewn stone hallways, he was followed by an ominous giggling shadow.

Yeong-mi ducked behind a column when she saw a scientist from the Asia Branch round the corner. She definitely didn't want to go back to work; things were just getting interesting.

"Hey Reever, have you seen Yeong-mi anywhere? I need her for something."

Reever let out a slightly hysterical laugh and pointed towards where she was hiding, "For the love of God! Make her leave me alone before I go postal!"

At this Lo Fa (Allen's stalker) popped out from a trap door in the floor and drug Yeong-mi away by her wrist muttering something about 'stalker school' and her needing more 'training.' The two men went into a fit of shudders upon hearing this. Reever excused himself and went down to his desk where he immediately threw himself into his work.

*******

Three hours later, there was still no coffee and the whole science department looked like death (well, apart from Reever who was rather lively). He had gone into Komui's office in a vain attempt to straighten things up a little, or at least figure out which papers the supervisor ha to sign.

Only minutes had passed when Komui oozed past on the way to his desk. Suddenly his head popped up and he sniffed the air like a sleepy meerkat. Having confirmed that his beloved coffee was nearby, Komui's eyes lit up. In the back of his head Reever could hear Yeong-mi's maniacal laughter.

"Oh shit…" Reever deadpanned, and that was all he managed to get out before Komui leaped at him like a crazed maniac (which after hours without coffee he very much was, more so than usual that is).

A/N 1: How explicit should the lemon be? Any suggestions? Leave them in a review and I'll do my best to get them all in even if it takes several chapters. Nothing is too crazy and my Joe and George (my roommates) will be more than happy to test if something is physically possible.

A/N 2: Secondly, I know all about bathing in Japan (I lived there for 4 years) but for this story I really didn't care. The Order is in Europe. Also, even if bathing is done properly the y would need to change the water once a week or two anyway. If it bugs you just pretend they're going to change the water in half an hour anyway, okay?

A/N 3: On a related note I skipped honorifics because the Order's common language is supposedly English and also because if I'd included them I would have probably switched to Japanese halfway through and not noticed. (I doesn't help that my laptop is amazing and I only need to push 1 key to switch to a full Japanese keyboard with Kanji dictionary.)

A/N 4: And for my fellow Brits and whoever else I used 'pissed' to mean angry, not drunk. Yeah, I've lived in the U.S. for too long.

Well, please review and you'll be hearing from me again soon. (Sorry this one was so short the next chapter will be much longer.)
