 Home to the Davenport family. Dodge acquired it after his big lottery win, dropping 2.5 million dollars as if it were nothing so he could travel out of his hometown and to the women that he loved.
Cockpit Average old cockpit where all of the driving is done. Dodge refuses to let any of the ladies drive the RV, insisting it simply cost too much to let anyone else try to drive it.
Living Room & Kitchen The middle of the RV is home to the living room and kitchen where many seats can be found to offer them all their own space. The kitchen itself is not too large, but it's large enough to hold all of the necessities to make a nice meal.
Bathroom The bathroom can be found towards the back of the RV. Although there's only one bathroom, there are two toilets and two sinks. One of the toilets has been Dodge's since day one since no one really wants to touch that after he's been on it.
Baba's Bedroom One of the bedrooms. Has a large bed, a small TV mounted on the wall and a couch where the other ladies can come visit.
Ayaka's Bedroom One of the bedrooms. Has a large bed and a medium-sized TV mounted on the wall.
C.C.'s Bedroom One of the bedrooms. Has a large bed, large TV and vanity.
Dodge's Bed A small bed can be found just around the corner from the living room behind the driver's and passenger's seats. This is where Dodge stays when none of the woman are very interested in having him in their room. There is a decent-sized TV which Dodge can watch while sulking.

The next house wasn't really much of a house at all. It was an RV! A very luxurious RV! It had been awhile since the island had seen an RV, but they had never quite had anything like this. Carnation had neglected to come see where two of her new followers had lived in the short while they had been here, and she felt a little guilty about that now. She was certain that she could spend hours frolicking around this place, but she didn't have that kind of time. She'd have to come back at a later time because she was here on business now! She made her way back through the RV and was pleased to find Dodge sleeping right out in the middle. What convenience! Oh, she must say that she was very, very proud of this new follower. Not only because his house on wheels, come on, he could go anywhere at any time! No, what really made him special was his way with the ladies! He already had three women, and Carnation was pretty sure that she sensed that that wasn't enough to quench his thirst. This boy was sure to do great things. He deserved a large piece of cake! She fluttered over to the little table behind his head and placed a box containing red polished pebbles and gold dust sand along with an envelope addressed to Dodge Davenport and a rather large slice of cake.
She smiled down at Dodge one more time before zooming back to find Baba's room. Ah! There she was! It was quite impossible to miss this young lady as she had legs almost as long as a football field! She was so exotic and interesting! It was great to have two with such potential in one moving home. Baba had even put on a decent show at the tomato festival alongside the other ladies of the house! Then there was that little adventure that she had taken and met those nice people! She was so full of life and it was great! Even if she had yet to take an adventure to the hot spring, she had done a lot so far. Carnation expected a visit now that she would know exactly where to go and maybe she could bring Dodge along! They could have one big fiery party! She flew over to the little cubby thing next to Baba's bed and placed a citrus candle along with an envelope made out to Baba Babcocke. With two more followers done, she vanished off into the night to the next house.

When the fairy had first arrived at the RV, she was rather.. confused. This couldn't be a home, right? Not of one of her followers! It was outrageous to think any one of hers would allow themselves to live in.. in such a small space. But, Chrysanthemum didn't make stupid mistakes like that, so she simply knew this had to be Cox Cannon's.. 'home'. Strange, but she only had to throw something at her. As she parked and fluttered into the RV, she wracked her brain for information on this 'Cox' girl. She hadn't paid much attention to the poor followers, so it was difficult to remember if she liked this one or not. It was only after she had reached the room and saw the sleeping girl that she recalled, oh, yes, she did. Anyone who could wrap three mortals around their fingers was someone who knew very well how to get what they wanted. Still.. This stupid RV wasn't nearly appealing enough for Chrysanthemum. So, she settled for leaving a bottle of perfume in the generic shape of a heart, but the scent of rich burnt vanilla was good enough to be called a gift from her. Chrysanthemum left the RV quietly to the next nameless follower.

..Oh, did he say the last one cheered him up? Because this one was totally the cheerer-upper that Ilex was speaking of! He liked Kasie's spirit, but this one was simply adorable too annnnd lived with three attractive people who all were so happy and fun and Ilex just really liked Ayaka Ando a lot too. The only downside was her lack of curves, but Ilex could forgive that for someone who had a total of three roommates who were all so friendly and romantic! Well, one was romantic, but that still was pretty good and Ilex just knew they would begin to appreciate one another as a group soon. He just had to keep watching. Watching with big, wide eyes, ready to call Lavender over so they could peep together and maybe develop their relationship into something more~ Oh, he had high hopes for Ayaka and, so, he left her an even bigger rock with a slipperier surface shaped as a heart! He couldn't find anymore false gold to throw in there, but the smoothness should make up for that! He put his heart into polishing that up for Ayaka, after all! Finished, he left the residence to carry on with his work!

 When one shared an RV with three other people, it wasn't everyday that one could find the time to be alone. Even though they all worked, there seemed to always be someone around, which could be downright claustrophobic. That's why, when two people vacated the RV for an evening, Ayaka had to take advantage of that. With C.C. and Baba out, it was the perfect opportunity to have a nice date night at home -- and for Ayaka and Dodge, that could only mean one thing: karaoke night!
There was no TV in the living room, so Ayaka had set up her Joysound karaoke system in her room. She had grown up on cramped little karaoke boxes that smelled vaguely of cigarettes and could fit only about three or four people comfortably, so this was nothing new to her. She had been prepping all afternoon, making sure the karaoke system was working properly, the microphones were cleaned. She had set a bowl of popcorn on the foot of the bed next to a box of pizza -- she had tried to make her own pizza in their kitchen, but the canned corn had made the crust all soggy, and it wouldn't do for a date at all. There was a six pack of beer within reach, as what was karaoke without alcohol?
For good measure, Ayaka fluffy the pillows on her bed, though Dodge wouldn't notice anything like that. She had swapped her usual jeans and sweatshirt for a blouse and shorts over tights, and she smoothed out her clothes and preened her hair briefly as well. It may have just been pizza and beer, but it was still date night! Once she deemed everything ready, she grabbed one of the microphones from its stand and held it up to her mouth. "Dodgyyy-saaaan," she called into the microphone, the speakers on the TV amplifying her voice, "Eburything is readyyyy!"

 A nice night of relaxation and quiet was definitely something that Dodge needed. It was rare that they had much time alone as they were both busy people. Heck, the whole family was often busy. Tonight was hardly any exception for two of the four, but it left the remaining two with the freedom of quality time. Dodge had felt that Ayaka had been neglected lately and was really happy with the idea of a little date night with her. He wasn't exactly sure what all she had planned, though he happened to catch a peek and saw her karaoke machine out earlier. He took the liberty in assuming that she wasn't just dusting it off and decided to dig through his own things to find his tambourine. It really couldn't be a proper karaoke night without the musical styling of Dodgy-san, tambourine extraordinaire. He had placed his tambourine neatly on his bed, after making it of course. This was a big night and he was not going to spare any expense. He had even taken a very thorough shower to be sure he was smelling and looking his freshest. This was the first real time alone they had had in awhile, he was going to make damn sure he was presentable.
He had run into town briefly to locate the flower shop and buy some yellow roses. It seemed to be the right amount of romantic without diving overboard like getting red roses or something. With flowers in hand, he made a mad dash to get home and finish the rest of his preparation. He found a glass cup that could maybe sort of look like a vase and placed the flowers in it along with some water. Then came dressing himself, which was a little harder than he had thought. There weren't that many options that looked all that date-y. He had a pair of khaki carpenter pants, about ten pairs of jeans with holes of various sizes and placing, and swimming trunks. He decided that the jeans with only one relatively small hole on the knee would be most appropriate. It quickly became apparent as he grabbed his dressiest shirt (which happened to be a flannel button-up) that he should probably make a stop by the tailor at some point and order himself some clothes for special occasions. Sure, he was just walking a few feet back to Ayaka's room for this date, but it was still pretty serious. They weren't married yet, and he wasn't going to take any chances on ruining what they had built up over the past couple of years.
Dodge couldn't resist a laugh when he heard Ayaka's voice coming over the speaker. It seemed that she was ready for him and their date night was about to begin. He found himself feeling a little bit more nervous than normal. Whenever they had spontaneous outings, his brain didn't really have time to register how important they were. Now that he had been preparing, he had worked himself up into thinking about how horribly this could all go. He took a final deep breath, unbuttoned that top button, grabbed the flower glass in one hand, grabbed the tambourine in the other, and started walking towards her room.
When he saw her standing there, he instantly felt more at ease. "Howdy, darlin'." He nodded his head at her before stepping closer to place her flowers on the shelf. "I picked these up fer ya." He said with a goofy grin. He scanned the room quickly to see all that was prepared. "I reckon ya got us a mess o' fun things here, ain't ya?" It was times like this that he was glad they both enjoyed their beer. There was hardly anything more attractive then a girl who was able to get down and drink some beer with the boys, even if there was only one boy. He raised his tambourine up and smiled, "an' lookie what I found!" He smacked it on his thigh for a good practice swing before placing it gingerly on her bed. This was gonna be great! He really wanted to grab a beer, but dammit she had prepared it all to look so nice and he was going to be a perfect gentleman. So, he just kind of stood there awkwardly and awaited for her to take the reins and move the night wherever she wanted it to go.

 Ayaka waited expectantly where she stood, holding the microphone in both hands. She wasn't the best at surprises, but she liked them, even if the party wasn't actually that surprised afterall. When Dodge stepped into her room, she threw her arms open with a ta-da: "Ja-jaaaan!" She laughed at herself briefly before turning her attention to the flowers. "Waaah! Beautiful!" she cried, going over to look at the roses. That's what she loved about foreign men, they brought you flowers! She had only ever seen Japanese men bring flowers in cheesy romance movies, or when they picked up their sisters from the airport. "Thank you, Dodgy-san!" She left the thank you at that; she wouldn't have been able to kiss his cheek even if she wanted to.
Ayaka laughed when Dodge pulled out the tambourine; she was glad he was so enthusiastic about it. "Un, maa, I get karaoke," she began to list the things she had acquired for the evening, pronouncing karaoke as kah-rah-oh-kay like it was meant to be -- she had no idea where this Carrie Oakey thing came from. "and-o... beeru, piza, mic," she shook the microphone in her hand playfully and continued, "aaand-o Dodgy-san, Ayaka," she pointed at her fiance and herself and laughed. She set the microphone down on the bed and gestured for him to sit. "Sit, sit! Sit, please," she patted the bed before turning to get a plate and a drink for her date. "Dodgy-san, want piza? Beeru? Just say, I get. Ah, nandakke, want first song? Or, is me okay?" It tickled her to play hostess and to mimic how her mother acted around her father. Made it feel like they were a real couple afterall!

 Dodge could not contain himself at the sight of Ayaka parading about all adorable like. He had thought that she was already probably the most adorable thing, but now it was looking to be definite. She was so full of energy and excitement, slightly more than normal. It made him feel pretty good to know that all of this was a show for him. He chuckled at her reaction to the flowers, pleased that they seemed well received. His head turned to look at the karaoke with delight, "I see tha' ya got yer lil' contraption on ou' thar." He smiled, quickly turning to acknowledge all of the food she had as she listed it. "Ya know tha' I love mah beer and pizza, don't cha darlin'." He rubbed at his stomach with another laugh. He wanted to reach for her and hug her as she announced herself, but he was quickly being instructed to sit. So, sit he did. He leaned back on his hands and looked up at her, still grinning. It was simply too adorable that she wanted to serve him, but it felt a little wrong. He wanted to be the one taking care of her, but she simply seemed too eager to deny her.
He glanced over at all that was being offered, knowing that the pizza would probably grow cold after they got through one round of singing. "Shoot, darlin'. I think I'd like ta have me a slice of pizza and a beer ta get me started. If'n tha's all righ' wi' ya?" This was kind of silly seeing as the food was practically in reaching distance, but he was going to be nice. He was not going to touch anything without her delicate hand offering it. This was just as much her night as it was his. This was exactly why he was going to let her have the first song. "I sure would love ta hear ya sing while I ea' my slice, baby." It was perfect! He could have his meal and she could get the privilege of singing the first song. This was turning out to be a wonderful start!

 Dodge was good at being obedient, so this evening was already going much more smoothly than Ayaka could have hoped for. Beaming, she gave Dodge an "OK" and handed him a cold beer and a plate with a slice of pizza. She was playing the devoted housewife, but he could open his own drink, and would have to drink from the can instead of a nice frosty glass -- some traditions were nice, but it was unnecessary to stick to them so strictly. "I sing song number one! Are you ready, Dodgy-san?" Sitting down on the bed, she took the wireless electronic song catalog and poked the screen with the stylus a few times as it chirped cheerfully along. Once her song had been submitted and the karaoke machine whirred as it adjusted to the new setting, Ayaka hopped to her feet and grabbed her microphone. "This is veeeery famous Japanese song," she explained as the title of the song, Heavy Rotation, showed on the screen. "Very popular, all Japanese know." With a knowing nod, she launched into the song with full gusto.
Ayaka was not the best singer around. She wasn't completely tone deaf, that was true, but her voice was unpolished and nasally, and she went off key a couple of times, and sometimes the song went too high for her limited range to hit it. But Japanese karaoke was not about being the best singer, it was about having fun and singing whatever song you picked with passion. And Ayaka was good at that. She didn't have a lot of passions in her life, but karaoke was one of them.
When she finished, she gave a little bow before returning to sit on the bed next to Dodge. "Okay, Dodgy-san's turn," she said pleasantly as she reached for a beer.

 Dodge opened his beer with a smile and took a quick drink before searching for a surface to place it on. This was nice. He enjoyed being catered to, even if it made him feel a little guilty. If it made her happy, it would make him happy. With a mouthful of pizza, there wasn't much that he could say about the song she had chosen. He wasn't sure if he was familiar with it, but he would still be happy to listen to her sing it anyway. His eyes shifted from his pizza, to Ayaka, to the screen, occasionally to his beer, and then the sequence would start all over again. That was until he stopped on the screen once and saw something that he had not planned on seeing. Oh goddess they were dressed up as cats. What kind of a video was this? Did Ayaka have a cat costume? That could be really fun. He allowed his eyes to trail quickly to her with a smile before looking back to the screen to see... holy s**t paste they were in a bathtub together. Were they naked under that? He was totally picturing them being naked under that. How was it that this was so popular in Japan? That must be a weirder place than he imagined it to be. They would really need to start to have a family night where they all got together and taught each other about their culture. Not that he thought there would be much to explain about himself or to learn about Baba, but damn if there were more videos like this.
There had been a moment when everything seemed to be going back to semi-normal, so he allowed himself to grab a drink. ALL HOLY GODDESS THEY WERE KISSING. Why had he chosen to look away only right before?! HOLY WHAT IN THE WOAH-- WAS THAT A n****e?! Oh good, it was a petal. This video was like the strangest roller coaster of events that he could imagine have to go through during this date night. He had barely recovered from the shock that he had just watched unfold when she announced that it was his turn. He moved his plate aside to free his hands and clap for her. That was great, not that he really remembered any of the words or even noticed how she sang it... That was kind of sad. He'd be sure to catch her next round, if there was one. Oh there better be, he'd probably feel bad forever.
After stretching and "warming up" his tambourine, he began to search for a song. He spent a good amount of time flipping through song after song to try and find a country song. He didn't seem to be having much luck, so he settled for a good ole classic rock song that he knew by heart. "This is a good ole song, I bet you'll love i' darlin'." He turned his head back as the song began. He had always thought that he had a pretty good voice. It had actually always been a dream of his to run off to Tennessee and make it big, but there were too many already down that road. He didn't want to have to deal with all of them clogging up the air waves. Plus, his family would never let him live that one down. Unfortunately, his twangy voice was not made for a faster-paced rock song. His voice often cracked under the pressure of attempting to reach new heights, but he happily jumped right back in. His tambourine was beating rhythmically on his thigh as he sang, and he frequently shook his head all about in the moment. Once the music had faded away, he turned to her with a smile. "How was I, baby?"

 Karaoke was a lot more fun when you were the one singing, but Ayaka was still in the newlywed(?) stage of their engagement, so she wasn't bored at all listening. Pulling her feet up onto the bed, she downed her beer and nibbled on a slice of pizza as she listened, swaying back and forth slightly when she was chewing. She didn't know the song, but that didn't matter, because it was ~*~Dodge~*~ who was singing it! Swallowing a bite of pizza, she then sighed; even after all this time, he still managed to make her heart clench with his wonderfulness. Was there anything he wasn't good at? Well, monogamy, but she wasn't going to think about that on date night.
When Dodge was done singing, Ayaka applauded him and beamed. "Amazing! So good!" she exclaimed. "Dodgy-san is sooo talent!" That was another part of karaoke -- compliment people's singing when you could because otherwise it was awkward! But Dodge genuinely was a good singer, and she hoped their future child would inherit that, so maybe he or she could go off and become a popular half musician in Japan, like Angela Aki or Crystal Kay! Or even Becki, who wasn't that great at singing, but was on TV a lot, so that was good too. "Demo, I don't really understand words of song? What song means?" she asked. "Is it love song?"

 This night just kept getting better and better. Dodge had had a great time singing and now he was receiving praises from his lovely Ayaka. Dodge simply loved receiving praise, especially when it was from beautiful women. It only made it even better to know that this beautiful woman was all his. He waved his arm at her, feigning bashfulness. "Aww shucks, yer gunna make me blush." It couldn't hurt to milk as much out of this as possible, could it? He took a quick bow before finding a place to set the tambourine and microphone. It was probably good to give the ole tambourine a little break, that way he could make it a few more rounds. He usually had the tendency to come out so strong that there was never room for much endurance. With a smile, he moved to sit on the bed next to Ayaka. He popped the tab of a new beer with a smile, glad to soak up all of her praises. He hadn't been sure if it had gone over so well, but knowing she enjoyed it was enough for him. "Thank ya kindly, darlin'." He said before taking a drink. Ah, this really was nice. Beer, women, and song. What else could a guy ever ask for? He started to reach for another piece of pizza, assuming that Ayaka would hop up and take her turn. It caught him by surprise when she asked what the song was about. It was refreshing to know that she had taken a real interest into the song, but he wasn't sure what it really meant. He had never really thought about it, but it could really mean a lot of things. Dodge had never been one to pass up a golden opportunity. He smiled at her and leaned toward her to place his hand on her knee. "I' is a love song, honey. 'Bout a young feller who travels all over searchin' for the purtiest girl there ever was. I though' i' was righ' close to our sitchyation."

 Considering that Ayaka had only really begun to seriously study English in the past years, and was pretty much self-taught by this point, you'd think that Dodge's explanation would have been complete gibberish, but they had been together long enough that she actually found his twang easier to understand than the average American English speaker. 'Sitchyation' gave her some trouble, but she still understood the gist of what her beloved was saying, and that was good enough! Once it processed fully in her head (this beer in her hand was not her first of the evening) she broke into a smile and let out a flattered giggle. "So nice," she sighed, taking a moment to thank her luck that she got a romantic, passionate foreign man for her almost-husband. She couldn't imagine any Japanese man saying this, unless he was a character played by Osamu Mukai, but she never trusted men who were that handsome. Leaning forward, she gave Dodge a quick kiss on his cheek and beamed. "Do you want-to take little break now?" she asked. "So our throats do not hurt?" It would be a shame to waste all of their singing potential in the first ten minutes, afterall. "Dodgy-san should relax, take your time." There was a reason she had hosted their date in her room, and it wasn't just TV placement! With a little difficulty since she was small and had short arms, Ayaka leaned behind them and pulled some pillows in case either of them wanted to lounge. "It's long time since Baba-san and CC-san go out, so I want to do eeeeverything," she added, moving her arms as if she were jogging to drive home her point, "so I must remember, go slow."

 Dodge hadn't been entirely sure if the words had come out right. The words that were placed on his heart were often not the best words, but they were his words! That made them unique and special on their own, right? There were times, especially with Ayaka, that he felt as though maybe he hadn't said something right. The language barrier between the two of them was most apparent, after all. Fortunately, they had other ways of communication that they both easily understood. When she kissed his cheek, a goofy grin instantly crossed his face. "I reckon I would like ta take a lil' break. No' tha' I wouldn' love ta hear ya sing again, darlin'. Bu', I agree tha' our time alone could be better spen' on other thangs." His head turned to watch her as she grabbed for the pillows. He thought about assisting since his arms were a great deal longer, but he knew this night was mostly about her. He often got carried away with babying his ladies and was beginning to realize that they were perfectly capable on their own. He was a very lucky man to have such independent women.
Once the pillows were placed, he gladly leaned back and placed his arms behind his head. "I' has been awhile, ain't it?" He commented on the time since they had actually been alone. It wasn't often with the relatively small quarters. Maybe he should start playing the lottery again. If he could get that lucky again, he could probably afford a mansion big enough to make the one buy the blacksmith look silly. Okay, maybe not that much, but it would be nice to be able to be better sectioned off from the others. They could probably sell the RV for a pretty penny, though it had so many nice memories. Ah, they'd have to have a family meeting or something about it all. He didn't need to worry about all of this on his own. He leaned over onto his elbow and reached his other arm out for her. "Ya never have ta go slow wi' ole Dodge. 'Sides, we don' really know how long we got, baby. I'd be awfully sad if we missed ou' on some activities." He trailed his finger up her arm slowly as he spoke. So maybe he was hitting the nail on the head pretty hard here, but it was true! Baba and C.C. could maybe burst in at any moment. If they were going to do something the other two couldn't see, they needed to get to doing.

 Once Dodge had laid down, Ayaka grabbed her own pillow and laid on her side, so she could stare lovingly at her fiance without having to turn her head. She loved moments like this, when they were alone, just the two of them. Although she had grown accustomed to sharing her fiance with their bus-mates, it didn't mean she wouldn't rather have him all for herself! At moments like this, she could forget that there were other women, and that they were living in a bus. "'Some activities'?" she repeated, confused momentarily by the language barrier. She could understand him when he was being literal, but it took her a moment for things to click when he was being subtle. "...Oh!" she exclaimed after a moment, once enough tonal eyebrow-wagging and arm-stroking processed. "Really? Here? Now?" She glanced towards the door, as if expecting someone to walk right in at that moment. That's how it always felt it went, at least. "Dodgy-san," she giggled and turned pink. Scooching over slightly, she pecked him on the lips. "Ja, if we do... We need music." Biting her lip as seductively as she could, she sat up and grabbed the karaoke device to put in a romantic song to set the mood. By the time she returned to the bed to grasp Dodge's hand, the music had already begun to play.
