Kira announces Nishi's birthday and
is a little concerned about meeting the family, especially a kittified Nishi. He tries to figure out
what's wrong with Kabuto's picture. Later, they discuss Toboe's new Konoha headband and Kabuto tries to adjust things. ((Alas, my failing at life and post-missing deprives Kabuto of his chance to unmask the pup.)) Omi also
piques Toboe's interest with his "florit" profession. Toboe tells Excel to
NO to animal sacrifices and the battle for Menchi begins anew. It is interrupted by an important
announcement by Elgala. After some angst, gender confusion and
encouragement from Menchi, Toboe sends her back to the safety of Elgala's arms. Oh, if only he knew the web of insanity in which Elgala exists.
Our next mission is to cheer up a despondent Air.
We fail miserably. XD An attempt to aid a
hungry Shikamaru has less than stellar
, as Shikamaru chomps into Hanatarou and Toboe plays guard dog. Hanatarou later thanks his unusual rescuer. Buffy gives Toboe some good
advice about zombies and Toboe ponders the mysteries of the
Shouta Squad with Chisame and Tot. He even considers buying a costume from Urahara.
