To everyone who had their birthday on April 1st (would you believe the amount): Happy Belated Birthday ♥
Now, I know you wanted to see a little message from me on your birthday, but I was sadly occupied. So, as a gift, I will now say a few words:
I hope everyone will do their best to make your next year in life a good one. Don't do any things you will regret come your next birthday, and give to the needy!
He decides to just waltz into my life again, after all those years? After he died? God, finally I know why people hate the Nexus. It does not please me.
I'm getting drunk now, who's joining me. And Clow bloody Reed, if you're reading this, you are not invited. Unless you bring plenty of alconot at all.
((I took a hiatus of 2 weeks, as announced on my personal lj, but we're back starting today! Did I miss anything? ♥))
It seems I missed White Day, which is, besides incredibly saddening, not at all my fault. I don't feel like getting detailed, but it involves losing a bet and other dimensions.
Either way, everyone reading this who got something from me... Now is your chance. Before I'll start taking away the things you love, one by one.
1. Leave me a comment saying anything random, like your favorite lyric to your current favorite song. Or your favorite kind of sandwich. Something random. Whatever you like. 2. I respond by asking you five personal questions so I can get to know you better. 3. You update your LJ with the answers to the questions. 4. Include this explanation and offer to ask someone else in the post. 5. When others comment asking to be asked, you ask them five questions.
Everything seems so fluid today. The children have been in the same country for several months, now. It's a stability that does not benefit them, not there, not now. Watanuki went back to school. It's an unnecessary stability, something unimportant. Pay no attention to it. After all, what is stability, really, but something to trick us into feeling safe?
Move one grain of sand, and the world isn't the same anymore. Stability is an illusion, but so few people are happy without it.
It had been a few weeks since she had spoken with Ether. Presumably, the man was happily reunited with his family, now, and saving poor souls, or whatever else he did these days. But she knew she couldn't leave things the way their last conversation ended. It would be irresponsible and weak-minded.
Which is why she sends him a note on his PINpoint, telling him that they will have tea at 1 o'clock tomorrow, her shop. And that's that.
After they'd made the appointment (and Ether had proceeded to make good on that one promise, several times), Ether and Yuuko had fallen asleep. For all that she was exhausted and warm and fuzzy at the time, Yuuko slept badly these days, and she woke up at about 5 a.m. A glance at the small clock tells her the ungodly hour.
Well, if she's awake, Ether might as well wake up too. She rolls over on her stomach and starts drawing patterns on his face. "Wake up, wake up~"
OKAY I have been looking through my icons for days and days, but it won't help.
My extra-icons-account stops on the 3rd. My full paid account stops on the 6th. I don't have enough money at the moment to renew it immediately, so my question for you lot is: which 15 icons should I keep? I usually just go with something. But you guys actually have to look at the buggers, so which have you seen me using often? Which are useful? I'm not talking about lulz, because as much as I love the condom one, I hardly ever use it.
so halp a sistah out ♥
EDIT: ALL GLORY GOES TO HOOKMUN. SHE IS GLORIOUS IN ALL HER GLORY. Thank you so much, sweetie ♥ Icons here I commmeeeeee ♥~ ♥~
“It was her favourite hotel. She liked it for its beauty and majesty, the building and the furniture a tasteful blend of Japanese and Western culture. It even had a wonderful bar, where they served the best martini in the region.
She stayed in the corner room of the second floor that day, like she always did. She was a regular, and had been coming to this hotel for years, sometimes just to sleep there and feel the atmosphere.
The bed of her room was large and covered with silk sheets. Because she loved the hotel, and it was her favourite, she’d been looking forward to her stay there for weeks. However…when she dove onto her bed, she rolled over to find a small memo on her pillow. Of course she wondered what it said, and, thinking it was a message from the hotel, she took a look. On it was written: ‘There is a ghost that is always haunting this room.’
Thinking that it must be a prank from the hotel staff, who surely recognised her on sight by then, she left it. But…it still bothered her. Wouldn’t it bother you, too? Still, since it was her beloved hotel, she decided to enjoy herself and went to the bathroom there.
There, she found a wet bathtub, drained but still wet, as if..someone had just jused it. The cleaning maids surely wouldn’t have left such a mess; after all, the hotel was a wonderful place.
But… it was still obvious that it had been used.
She became scared and restless, and decided, in the end, not to take a bath, but to just go to sleep instead, wearing her favourite light purple pajamas.
She climbed into the bed and was just about ready to sleep….until she heard someone walking through her room.
Pata pata pata pata
Pata pata pata pata
It sounded soft, as if the person walking through her room was wearing slippers. But..there was no one there.
After that, there was a large creak.
A dent formed in the bedsheets, as if someone’s hands were pushing down on them, and she felt someone climbing into the bed. Of course, she thought it was the ghost, and, rigid with fear, she couldn’t move.
Then the entity that had entered her bed made a loud scraping noise and touched her arm.
Scared senseless, she crawled to the end of the bed…but the thing, also, stepped back as if shocked.
But again…zuru…zuru…. with that slow dragging sound, it approached her. She felt like it was peering at her. Somehow, she tried to escape, but the invisible thing grew closer, and closer.
It touched her again, and this time…she could hear something shrill, something….yes, like a scream. As if it was running wild, the thing let out a cry as it ran around the room, rattling the doorknob as if trying to escape.
Frightened out of her wits, she didn’t know what was going on, and couldn’t move from where she was sitting.
At that moment, her eyes fell….on that memo.
And like that, she discovered she had missed something before.
‘There is a ghost that is always haunting this room,’ it said.
Apologies for my absence. There were...complications. It seems like my world wasn't the only one suffering from those.
[locked to addressed parties] Kurogane, Fay? Would you like to come over for tea in my Nexus-shop? I want to see you like you shoul [/lock]
(Strikes definitely not legible. Acid Tokyo struck, so her own Fay is missing an eye and, along with everyone else, a lot of sanity. Icon shows as the 'my milkshake--casual' one.)
Starting tomorrow, I'll be on vacation in Spain. I probably won't have internet access, except for maybe the first and the last few days. I'll be back July 3rd. Have fun, link me to stuff if it's interesting/funny/depressing/whatever, and I'll check. Sometime.
Much luurve ♥
(Don't you all wish you were the water in this icon? :>)
