Tomorrow's Not What It Used to Be

Arakaki-sama

Please don't make me go back there for as long as I live.

With deep humility,

Murakami Sumire

I have nothing of substance to say. Though, did anyone notice that the holding rooms seem fuller?

[private]

How many people? It's scary. Why are they so willing to bring the walls crumbling down around our heads?

[/private]

Damn you, Ito Ren, damn you! While there is still breath in my body I will be bound and determined that you aren't going to trap my brother into wedlock, you psychotic hussy!

COME BACK TO ANBU RIGHT NOW. >:| I miss my heterosexual lifepartner. ; - ;

My sister encouraged me to attempt beading up this... thing. I don't even know what it is, a bracelet maybe? A pair of shackles? You know, for being trained to handle tiny things delicately and mind things like knots in my hair and knots in tetsugen, this stupid wire knots infuriatingly easily.

So now, what I was sure was supposed to be some kind of pretty double looped bracelet in seed pearls is now... seed pearl shackles.

I think I'm going to throw this away and start over. Or maybe I'll just stick to wearing normal bracelets instead of listening to Tsukishirohime's silly ideas.

[private]...Shit.

Shit

I can't find it! I can't find it anywhere! Shit shit shit. My sister is going to murder me and hang me on Hanagumori's gate if I don't find it.

Oka-sama's bracelet, where did I put it?! Fuck me running! Is it with Ryouma?![/private]

Late-running family meetings this afternoon have drained me. At least I got presents :3 It won't be so bad being 23 another year older, so long as they continue to spoil me with gifts like these.

Now... to figure out how to put this thing together...and find that bracelet.

I've made it home, without incident. Oda is a boring conversationalist. I've gotten fantastic at sudoku while away. Ren-chan~ I found a guy there that you'd love.

He's mute. Perfect man, right? Hahahahaaha

[Private]

There are over forty people in this village alone that ANBU Sentries have to snatch from their homes. Traitors? Yonaga plot? I'm suddenly glad I get to rest and not think about mission work or office work for a few days.

[/Private]

Aside from the kidding, I'm going to sleep off this exhaustion from being perky for ten days in a row. I think it's given me an ulcer.

...Wait. Is it the twenty-eighth?! DAMN IT. ; ;

I have a mission.


...I'm going to be having a lot of missions. Arakaki-sama and Doumyouji-san have deemed fit to return me to Intel's Field Operations branch, with Code and Cypher in the Crypt returning to my secondary, tertiary?, skill set. Isn't that excellent news?

I will be leaving in 35 hours, so I suppose I need to get my things in order.

[Private]

I suppose I'm wary of this. But, I guess part of me recognized that I couldn't hide behind Doumyouji-san's coattails forever.It isn't even like I can argue it, they're so damned stubborn and resolute upon any subject.

Haha, wasn't it just last month I told Genma that I wasn't ready? I guess I have to just be ready now.

[/Private]

I'm sure you'll be singing in the streets, Shibata, won't you? Jerk.

Ren-chan, I'm really quite unhappy about this, but my dearest elder brother has informed me of his inability to join us. He has a mission, so he sends his apologies.

( Private )

Sorry, Ren-chan~

[Private]...I really want frozen peaches.



Is this what they call 'addiction'? [/private]

There's a strange... smell leeching into my room. I don't know quite how to place it, either. >(


I'd open windows but I don't want to freeze Not a word, Shibata., so I've just been burning ohana. Surprised how strong Tsukishiro's blend is. My poor little sister, she works longer than I do and is paid more. ...Maybe I should've been a geisha, hahaha!


Current drafting pile: 7, complete: 4, due: 2330. Arakaki-sama is so kind~ I was afraid he wouldn't give me a minor extension.

I think I need more coffee. :|

Someone moved into the apartment next to me. Hasn't it been empty for something like three months?

Damn. I was getting used to the peace.


Ren-chan, are we going to do that thing this weekend or not? My elder brother would like to know for certain.

Please don't do anything embarrassing. Like stare. Again.

I was suddenly stuck by the urge to purchase tea and now I have six types of highly expensive, damn my tastes white and green. At least this should make my long nights in the office this week more entertaining.

Arakaki-sama will have his documents before the week is over.


Genma, curry?
