Tomorrow is "Stone Soup," everyone! At the high school cafeteria! Please eat as much as you'd like, and please welcome the new people helping out: Seta, Satonaka-chan, Hihara, and maybe also Fai-san! As well as myself and Gremio! I'm not sure, but I think in the near future, the soup kitchen will be going up to every day. But... [ ... ] I feel ( Read more... )

[ THUD as Sorata slams his communicator down on something, smashing it on in a burst of static. For the very first time in his life-thanks for being a good influence, Shinji-Sorata can be heard to swear: ] Fuck! Stupid- Four of 'em...

[ Something goes thud. There's a long pause; the recording times out as he has a conversation with one of these ' ( Read more... )

[There is a soft click as the communicator turns on in Sorata's pocket. It's mostly silent for a few seconds, although you can hear some rummaging noises. Then there's the sound of quick footsteps, but they don't go far.]

"Umi-chan! Can you open this for me?"

"Huh? Oh-of course, I'll be right there!" [Footsteps again, this time approaching.] "... ( Read more... )

Hey, so, guess what! I was bored and decided that since Shinjiro ain't there to chase me away from the bar, I might as well help myself to his beer. Now I'm kinda sick ( Read more... )

Everything's the same as ever here, so it's dumb to keep pointing that out. Cut it out, already. [...]

It's --

This isn't frustrating... so ask me lots of questions.

Thinking back to last time I was here... the scientists kinda did weird stuff on Christmas and New Year's and a couple of other holidays, didn't they? But maybe they'll be overcome by love this time and it'll be nice instead of weird. I hope so. This will actually be my first Valentine's Day. Believe it or not, monks don't usually celebrate it ( Read more... )

[...] [He speaks in shaky, but understandable, English:] Wolfwood. Punch Shinji. To sleeping. ["Knock him out."]

[Back to Japanese:] ...There's a fire.
