D8 - Tiger 19th

+++Thought for the Day+++
Do not shy the hopeless fight, for endeavour is its own reward.

Weather

The morning is warm just as the day before and by the noon the city is engulfed by sweltering heat. Air conditioning struggles to keep indoors pleasantly cool, the spirit-engines whirring in protest. The power to heimin habitation blocks is cut again, allowing some respite for the upper classes. Southern winds pick up a little before the sunset, cooling down the air. Both moons are bright on the dark sky, the night feeling a little chilly.

Kisei is showing first quarter.
Hakusei is waxing gibbous.

My Neighbour // Buns (Double Feature)
My Neighbour: A thief breaks into the apartment of a recluse Kuni only to discover that the Crab has been keeping the pristine body of his wife in residence. Before the thief can escape after this discovery, he is captured by the Kuni. The Kuni tries to explain the purpose of his experiments with his seemingly dead wife but ultimately holds the thief against his will as he cannot risk getting suspected of maho. The Kuni is very convinced that his wife will return to him soon...but what will happen if she doesn't? Can the thief risk becoming a victim to the Kuni's delusions?

Buns: A corrupt official knowingly consults with a bog hag to forever maintain his youthful looks. He is provided with buns where the ingredients are kept secret. However, when the ingredients are revealed to him, is he willing to play with more than his soul to maintain this pact to maintain his youth?

Scorpion1: Are you coming to Soshi-sama's opening tomorrow?
Scorpion2: Soshi Ayame-sama's?
Scorpion1: Yeah, she's got new works from Bayushi Rin and Yogo Tetsuo.
Scorpion2: Maan. I like the work Bayushi-san has done.
Scorpion1: Well then.
Scorpion2: But well, Soshi-sama is...
Scorpion1: Humm?
Scorpion2: Let's say that in many ways, she is without comparison.
Scorpion1: *giggle* That's for sure.

Scorpion1: Did you see that Hare at the ball yesterday?
Scorpion2: The daddy-dom?
Scorpion1: Yeah, him.
Scorpion2: What about him?
Scorpion1: I think he's sorta hot?
Scorpion2: Well, yes. But also, he pings on my subdar so hard.
Scorpion1: Maybe that Crane's just confused?
Scorpion2: Aren't all Crane?

Scorpion1: Hare are like soldiers for hire, right?
Scorpion2: Yeah, yeah they are.
Scorpion1: Do you think I could hire one as a bodyguard?
Scorpion2: Uh... maybe. Wouldn't that be weird though?
Scorpion1: Well, there is this one hot Hare guy?
Scorpion2: So you'd want him to 'guard' your 'body'?
Scorpion2: And by 'body' I mean 'booty' and by 'guard' I mean sl...
Scorpion1: Nooo, I mean yes, but also no.

Scorpion1: Did you watch the Sole Survivor?
Scorpion2: Yeah I did.
Scorpion1: Did you see that Kuni?
Scorpion2: Yeah I did. Do you have a new crush now?
Scorpion1: Huh?
Scorpion2: The last we talked you wanted to do the Hare boy.
Scorpion1: Nooo, you misunderstood me.
Scorpion2: Did I?
Scorpion1: Yes, yes you did.
Scorpion1: Anyway, that Kuni?
Scorpion1: So cool, so wicked.
Scorpion1: Finally some Crab that stands out.
Scorpion2: I mean, that Kaiu did?
Scorpion1: Yeaaah, but you know what I mean.

Scorpion1: Spider are pretty nice?
Scorpion2: You mean Yakumo looks nice?
Scorpion1: No. I mean, yes. But the others are decent too.
Scorpion2: Really now?
Scorpion1: Yeah, I've met few decent Spiders.
Scorpion2: Good for you!

Scorpion woman: Kei-kuuuun! Do you remember what day it is?
Scorpion Kid: Ah? What... it's the 19th, ne?
Scorpion woman: Exactly! And that means...
Scorpion Kid: Aaaah! It's tomorrow! Tsukune Matsuuuuriiii!!!!
Scorpion woman: Exactly! I've heard you talk about it day in, day out since we missed it last year!
Scorpion Kid: Yaaay!!! I wanna see the Moles' tails shining in the dark!
Scorpion woman: Should be a pretty night too! Hakusei is almost full.
Scorpion Kid: Will they let me play with the Drakes? The Silvertails? The Armored Badgers???
Scorpion woman: We'll see, Kei-kun! But calm down! And go practice your letters or we can't go!
Scorpion Kid: I will, kasan! All the letters! I will know them all by tomorrow, you'll see!

Mantis1: So, we are fighting Lion all the time.
Mantis2: Yeah.
Mantis1: And Spider have pretty good ships.
Mantis2: But few of them, yeah.
Mantis1: So why don't we have Spider engineers design us some ships?
Mantis2: Tentacles?

Spider1: I wish all the Mantis were that reasonable.
Spider2: Hum?
Spider1: I talked to this Yoritomo Seika and well, it went really well.
Spider2: Huh, maybe I should talk to her too!

Nari-chan Live!
The popular digital video personality, Nari-chan the Kitsune, makes her online appearance to her fans.


"Oh, oh, oh! Did anyone watch the Sole Survivor tournament yesterday? That was pretty fun huh? " Nari-chan smiled eagerly while looking from side to side for a response.
"Everyone there was brave to take part there. Oh my Kami, I would be so stressed just taking part in it. I'd probably just get eliminated first. " Nari-chan giggled anxiously on the matter. "So much drama too! I wouldn't want to get betrayed by any of my friends! Even if it's all make-believe. Do people still do that?"
Nari-chan blinked and watched her chat inform her about "Huh? Someone was caught Lao...Lap..LARPing in the Kyuden? What's a LARP? Is this a new challenge people are doing on the Network? Like the quick videos on CHIME? It sounds pretty cool! I'd want to give that a try one day! "
