Sorry I haven't been around too much lately, everyone. I haven't been feeling very well, before or after those last viruses... I hurt my eye for a while before them. [ Read: He got a mirror stuck in it. ] Then I got sick for a little while after. [ Read: A youkai from his past wanted to make him suffer and he got sick because of it. ]

I'm better now though. I even got invited to a party... of sorts. It seems a little shady, though. [ He doesn't sound thrilled about it. ] My friends from school are trying to figure out some kind of trip too. We usually go fishing, but Nishimura said we should do something different every once in a while.

I have a question for everyone though: What do you want to do when you get older? Or, if you are out of high school already, how did you decide what you wanted to do?

[ She's totally going to ignore that last question, since it would just get awkward.. a magical girl has nothing to answer to that, after all, she doubts she'll even get old enough to think of doing anything, and she's a hobo to begin with, so..

But the first part makes her suspicious either way, so of course she's immediately on it. ]

Don't go to any shady things! [ .. Kyouko, are you not even going to pretend that you aren't worried by now.. ]

[ It's not actually shady besides that it was basically a bunch of his friend-type spirits who.. want to kidnap him and take him to a drinking party but Natsume is too much of a goody two-shoes for that. ]

I'm not planning on it. It's probably just an excuse for them to go get drunk.

When I get older... [ and he can't help but think, if i get older. if the zombie tattoo never gets removed, he guesses he won't technically be getting any older. ] I suppose I'd continue serving with my world's soldiers, like I do now. I'd like to be able to preserve peace here.

[friendcontracts]

Don't do anything I wouldn't.

[spiritually]

That seems like a good cause. Is your country at war? [ He seems pretty young to be in a war though.. ]

[spiritually]

It's nothing dangerous, it's just a drinking party.. Apparently for me, even though I'm a minor.

With your run of luck, are you sure you want to risk a shady party?

[Stage cough, stage cough. He brings the back of his hand to his forehead, the other to his chest.] Ah! This sickness still has me in its clutches! Just when I thought I'd had it kicked, it's a rebound! Go on ahead without me and enjoy it in my stead, dear friends!

...Would be one way out.

Well I already told them I wasn't going and that it sounded shady, it's not like I needed to lie about that.

[ Then when they tried to dog pile him he punched them >T ]

[smokepraylove]

You have yourself a handle on that, then.

So, worrying about your future now, are we?

[friendcontracts]

Those guys probably don't care that much about that.

[spiritually]

They never do, but it's not like they can make me.

[spiritually]

Mhm. Eventually I'll have to graduate. It's not very soon, but eventually.

[friendcontracts]

They don't know any better.

[smokepraylove]

What about the couple you live with? What do they do for a living?

[guardiss]

In a few weeks, it will be. I've spent a while preparing for it.

[kitchenknives]

Hell if I know. Something amazing, I guess.

Hey, wait, what kind of shady?

[selfished]

Tell me if they drag ya off, I'll give 'em a piece of my mind! [ Nevermind that Kyouko can't see spirits.. ]

.. N.. not that it's for your sake though!

[spiritually]

[ They wouldn't be able to if Natsume wasn't a total dumbass who has to touch everything.

..But it's a good thing he does okay don't worry Kyouko. ]

Don't worry, they're friends. They won't hurt me or anything, and even if they tried to drag me off Nyanko-sensei would deal with them.

[ Kyouko stop tsunning. ] It's not?

[spiritually]

I think they do by now, they just like messing with me.

Shigeru-san is a businessman and Touko-san stays at home to take care of the chores, food, groceries, everything like that.

[spiritually]

...Good luck.

[ That's something that you say for that right? For all of the hecticness and weirdness and fast-paced life he's had, he was still in a time and place at peace. He had no idea how to face this kind of conversation. ]

[spiritually]

Something amazing? Most of the amazing people I know aren't people I'd really want to follow in the footsteps of though..

[ Becoming an exorcist.. no way. But what else is he supposed to do? He's barely got a passable for normal life as it is, if he got a normal job he'd probably get fired... ]

Like... drinking and things. I don't drink, it's illegal for minors so..

[kitchenknives]

Ouch. Well, a different kind of amazing'd be fine then, right?

I mean, I guess getting drunk is okay, so long as you don't get too drunk. Probably waaay too embarrassing.

[friendcontracts]

I don't blame them. Messing with you is fun.
