Hello, network!

Today happens to be Ikki Minami’s seventeenth birthday! For any of you that might know him ( aside from Kira!! ヽ(ｏ`皿′ｏ)ﾉ ), please feel free to stop by Kogarasumaru's base and wish him a happy birthday!

[ He inserts directions to the base here. ]

(・∀・ ) There's plenty of cake to go around!!

. . .

Did he do something to you?

[sixwinged]

No.

[crowing]

Then what?

[sixwinged]

I just don't like him anymore.

[crowing]

Yo, little shark. You gotta reel this shit in.

You're being unreasonable.

[sixwinged]

I am being perfectly reasonable. I am being the most reasonable.

[crowing]

The fuck you are!

[sixwinged]

Fine.

He can come, too.

[crowing]

Good! Everyone is invited!

No exceptions!

[sixwinged]

I don't want him to come, though.

Just so you know.

[crowing]

C'mon, that's not fair.

He's my friend too.

[crowing]

Are ya worried about that curse shit?

[sixwinged]

No.

[crowing]

Liar.

[sixwinged]

What "curse shit", Ikki?

[crowing]

Dude, I frickin' know you. You KNOW what I mean.

[sixwinged]

They're just curses, right?

[crowing]

Ya. They don't really mean anything.

Shit happens. You don't let it break you down.

[sixwinged]

Except they do. Things happen during them, words are said, and you can't take them back.

[crowing]

That's fucked up.

What if you were cursed and said you hated all of us?

[sixwinged]

I don't mean it like that. Even Ikki said he disliked me when he forgot everything.

I mean once they're out, it's hard to forget they were said, right? Forgiving them is easy, depending on what's said. But the words will be forever left behind, engraved into the person's mind.

Yeah, I even felt like that towards Simca. I couldn't remember fucking anything and talking to all of you was like. . . I don't know, dude, drowning. Like I was gonna get swallowed by the things I didn't know but should know.

( a wave of the hand. ) Hardly fair to hold it against me.

[crowing]

Tch!

That's hardly what it's like. We've been in this damn city for months, both of us know how it works. You've got your normal days and you're fucking whacked days where you say and do shit that ain't right.

It's over in a day. Life moves on. Holding onto it is just petty.

[sixwinged]

I'm not saying I'm holding it against you-- I'm just saying that experiences like that aren't easy to forget. The feelings that come along with them, words that are said, it's hard to just put it all aside like it never even happened.

I've been here for eleven months, and I still haven't been able to just forget about something entirely and move on like it never happened.

I'm saying that you're freakin' stupid. It's like hearing me say that all water is purple and taking it as anything other than fucking ridiculous.

You know good and damn well that what I said when I didn't remember was fucking ridiculous and untrue.
