The World

So, Ed.

You and Alfons have fun? 

C'mon, give me the dirt. <33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

.......I think I have a body.

...Do I? 

............................................................

I honestly can't tell.
 

So...Ed. Alfons.

Misuzu. Al.

You all get into one huge 4-some or what?

Oooooooooohhhhhhhh................

My head...

What the...

Damn it! Last I remember I took Alfons out to a bar...

And then...

What happened?!

Oh my GOD, it's so hot.

I want to just hang myself right now, rather than deal with this crap.

...

Alfons, you have an air conditioner, right?!

GOOD.

I'm going to go to your house and sit directly in front of it.

And not move for a YEAR.

Woo! The Sun Festival is coming up soon! This means that I need to get a new swimsuit!

......Come to think of it, I haven't gotten a new one, haven't I? I've been too busy getting OTHER people swimsuits that...

Urgh! How could I have forgotten?!

This is just so weird!

I mean, there are a lot of weird things going on lately (like how the hell does Mom keep eating all my ice cream in the Icebox? I buy some, and then she just scarfs it down! I swear, I'll never be able to keep sweets in the house!), and the job's weird enough...

But...

AGH!!!





Hey...Yuugi, was it? How about we hang out sometime soon? Like, not this weekend because I'm swamped. But sometime soon...you 'n' me.

I. AM. EXHAUSTED.

On top of work, and on top of everything else, why did Mom find it necessary for me to clean the entire apartment from top to bottom? I've been cleaning all night, and I have to go to work in a few hours...

I'm so tired.

I swear, Mom.

Next time you do this...I am going to just duck out and run to Setsuna's and be done with i--

.......

Okay, nevermind. Setsuna's leaving pretty soon...

Then I'll run to Hughes's. Or Alfons's. Or even Saber's. It's nice that you ask me to clean your house and all...but when there's only a few things on the floor and I've consistently cleaned every day for as long as I've lived here, don't ask for a random spring cleaning when it isn't needed....and say that there's 'so much dirt' on the floor when there's obviously none.

:<

I'm sleepy, so I'm going to bed now.

Good night!

I SWEAR. KIDS THESE DAYS.

Taking a shy guy and beating him up and taking his lunch money. And stealing his homework, too!

What a bunch of jerks. I should ask Yuugi where he goes to school so I can give those idiots what-for.

...Actually...

Where *DO* you go to school, anyway? I'm not going to let these idiots get away with this.

...Did Ed drop off the face of the planet, or what? He hasn't been on his book in days, it seems (Either that or he ignored my messages, the jerk!).

Or is he just so lovesick that he can't even think straight?



ED!

EARTH TO ED!!!

Answer me, dammit!

If you don't, I'll call you and do nothing but talk in that stupid Runic language we learn at the University and be really annoying! Don't think I won't do it!

...

YOU'RE NOT SITTING AROUND AND MOPING, ARE YOU?!?!?!?!?!

...

...That's it, Ed. I'm coming over.

Well, it's business as usual around here. I can't help but feel bad for poor Mr. Hughes who's stuck flat on his back in the hospital, though more and more people are piling me with stuff to file. I didn't think that people in Investigations had so many things to look through just in one day. Mr. Hughes is going to just love the amount of work that is waiting for him when he gets back.

Maybe I'll bring some of the smaller files for him to look over in the hospital. A few of them are only a couple pages...not like some of the reports, which are over 100. God. Several of these a day...

I wonder if I'd be able to deal with it.

...

I also got ahold of the military academy, and talked to a few people about getting in (I also explained my situation a little...well, more just saying that I had a change of heart career choice in the middle of my University career, and if there's any way I can get a transfer). Apparently there is a way to get in, but I'd have to take a semester-long prerequisite course to make sure I'm 'cut out' for this military thing.

But even then, that's only on special commendation. Where the hell am I going to find someone in the military who's willing to commend me to the school so I can go get a job in the Investigations division?

Geez, I'm just a secretary!

But on the offchance I am able to take this course? That means I'm going to have to do physical training...maybe even have basic weapons training...

Katsura's the one more suited to that than me. Her family's the one who gave her those swordfighting lessons! I know my way around a knife, but that's only because Mom demanded I know how to use SOMETHING if I get caught in a dark alley!

Ah well. Go with the gusto, I guess. I can do this.

 Hey, Ed. I'm kidnapping you. 

You need distraction, and you need it now.

...

Even after all night, we couldn't find her.

......

Where the hell could she be?!

...


...

But it's the Temperance festival...

I didn't have much time to grab bouquets this morning, but I did grab a few. I grabbed one for Saber in Hughes's stead, because with all she's done for him, he'd BETTER give her a bouquet or I'm smacking him so hard he'll fly through the hospital walls!

But I did get one for Katsura, Ed, Alfons, Mr. Hughes, Miss Saber, and Setsuna. Mom should be coming home in a few days, so I'll get her a belated bouquet when she gets back.

...

I know my period's coming up soon. Damn it, I can tell.

...

I have a feeling that I won't be able to get up tomorrow.

Well, after getting enough sleep, I decided to go back to work today.

Turns out that in light of the two events that happened recently, things are, quite literally, pandemonium.

At least at my desk, it seems. Everyone and their mother keeps forgetting that Hughes is in the damn hospital, and all give me files that I need to give to him. One jerk even said that he should look at it IN the hospital if he's feeling up to it. Instead of telling him what I really thought of him, and that he needed to shut the hell up before I crammed my not even sipped once coffee (which I desperately needed) up his ass, I told him that Hughes would be reading files only when he's better, but I'd make a memo of it and put it in his file.

...

And I think my period's about to start, too.

This is the worst time for this to happen...since I'm going to go see Miss Saber tonight, and talk to her about a few things.

----

You know, looking at what's going on--maybe this investigation stuff is my true calling.

You know, the first thing I hear in the morning shouldn't be a pair of newlyweds fighting. I watched over Shana all night, changing her bandages, cleaning her wounds, making sure that she was okay, and what do I get when I finally collapse on the floor due to exhaustion?!?!

"You IDIOT... get yourself KILLED.... god's SAKE, ALFONS... need you; how d'you think Misuzu would deal without you? AND Shana... REALLY angry... how MUCH blood you lost?... scared shitless- not that I- I mean..."

THAT is what I get!!! It's true that Alfons needed a good screaming-at, but did he really have to do it so loud that I could hear him? Geez. I got hardly any sleep, I called in sick to work due to, I dunno, friends near-spontaneously-combusting-due-to-crazy-monster-magician-tomogara-thing, and then I wake up to my best guy friend screaming to his would-be-girlfriend-if-they-weren't-so-damned-retarded over her being an idiot!?! Ed, I know you care. Ed, I know you want to fuck her hard until you both explode from repressed sexual urges.

BUT.

LEAVE.

ME.

THE HELL.

OUT OF IT.

I don't want to hear your arguing, I don't want to see it. For all intents and purposes, I want to pretend that the world doesn't exist and fall into dreamland for the next thirty years.

If you want to confess that you want to screw her senseless, do it on your time. Not when I'm sleeping.

Thank you.

Screw you all.

Good NIGHT!
