Thirty-second Lotus

[spandexisyouth]

I am sorry if anyone has missed me. I did not mean to get injured. But I am recovering! And clearly I am better; they have let me have my journal back! And it is not because I kept asking

I might have to join you in training. Once I get better, that is. Also, if you're still in the Wilderness, I may come visit you, see how you're recovering.

[spandexisyouth]

I think I am probably supposed to be here longer, but I am not staying.

[grab_my_bells]

Yes, you are staying. That's the only reason anyone let you have your journal.

[spandexisyouth]

But now they are stuck, because if it gets taken away again then I have nothing to do except plan my escape!

[grab_my_bells]

Maybe, unless we can give you something else to occupy your thoughts and time.

[spandexisyouth]

I would like to keep my journal. But I am open to other suggestions of occupations.

[grab_my_bells]

Fine. Keep the journal, and I'll see what suggestions people have. But if I find you out running around before your fully recovered, you'll be sleeping on the couch. With Tenzou.

[spandexisyouth]

So it is a challenge! Run and do not be found! I accept!

[grab_my_bells]

That wasn't a challenge, and you know it.

[spandexisyouth]

It looked like one. Maybe it looked like one because it is your turn to challenge me and has been for a while.

[grab_my_bells]

Ah, well, ...I'll come up with a suitable challenge for you. One that requires the right amount of effort considering your current condition.

[spandexisyouth]

I look forward to it! I am capable of things! My condition is not that bad!

[grab_my_bells]

Yeah, let me be the judge of that.

[spandexisyouth]

[Looooong pause.] I already know how you will judge it.

[grab_my_bells]

Oh good. Then I don't have to go through the effort of explaining.

[spandexisyouth]

You do not! And I will be training like I should be!
