I'm male again, which is, needless to say, quite a relief, though the timing was somewhat inconvenient. In retrospect, I should probably have refrained from using experimental jutsus on myself.
It's been too long for me to continue to suspect that this might be a genjutsu-- the best of the missing-nin could only maintain one for five days at her best, but I'm starting to wonder if I haven't simply gone insane. I don't know that I care, which should be another worry in itself.
My application was accepted, so I have an apartment as of Saturday. Now I just need to find the time to move everything.
I'm undecided as to whether this is a good thing or not. Kakami kept everything I owned, some of it exactly where I left it, and that worries me. At the same time, part of me is pleased that she didn't move on, which worries me more. I'd like to stay to keep a closer watch on her, and because I'd just rather be around her, but some distance might be good for both of us.
