Thirty-fifth Lotus

[spandexisyouth]

[There are a great many scratched-out starts to this, illegible.]

Please do not be alarmed if you run into me. I will try to avoid most people.

I may need some days off work, Stoneface. I will come explain. [A pause.] I will come, and then I think I will not need to explain.

Please let us know if you need anything, Gai-jūn.

[spandexisyouth]

Thank you [pause.] Huo?

[getsome_sleep]

In the flesh, though rather less of it than usual.

[spandexisyouth]

Less of Oh! You are a child?

[pinkmoonrabbit]

Are you alright, Gai-papa?

[spandexisyouth]

I will be, Sailormoon-daughter. Please do not come over, though. I do not want to scare you or bring back what might be bad memories.

[pinkmoonrabbit]

[ a short pause. ] Would you like me to drop some food off by your door?

[spandexisyouth]

If it would make you feel better, you may. I do not want to be a burden.

Pray tell, my friend Gai

Alas, this entry is

I must know, friend and comrade, if it is at all within my power to assist you? Why do you fear to show your face?

And he thinks she's just being very kind.

[spandexisyouth]

I will come to the Watch office later and it will be very clear, I think, my friend. Only the Tree can change this back.

[ice_echani]

Then I will anticipate your arrival with great anticipation. I would desperately like to know what odious change the Tree has worked upon your normally vibrant self that would give you such distress at merely carrying out those duties you so enthusiastically and dutifully hold.

[there are some stabbing marks after this. better to just get her message written and then take out her frustration with the prose.

Except for 'anticipate with great anticipation.' That she can't let stand.]

[spandexisyouth]

You are being very formal. Is everything all right?

[books_and_toads]

That doesn't sound good. I'll respect your wishes if you don't want to, but I am concerned. Would you like to meet?

[spandexisyouth]

It is not good. But perhaps you should come over. It relates to [pentaps and a pause here.] things.

[bal_daisy]

Gai, are you OK?

[spandexisyouth]

I will be, Krile. Thank you for your concern. I am sure things will change back eventually.
