Thank you very much for the rescue. Everyone, I'm all right now, and the rest of the affected people are going to be fine. I know, because I'm going to help save them. (I won't budge on this, so don't try to dissuade me.)

As for what I said and did... well, call me old-fashioned, but I still prefer regular therapy to the supernatural kind. So if you want to ask, I'll do my best to answer. ...That person is me, technically, but more than a little seems to have been lost in translation.

[Failed private, easily hackable]
I looked like a tramp. Forget looking like one, I acted like one! And I - with - if I didn't have people to rescue I'd spend the rest of the day in purifying myself! No, I'd spend the entire week doing it, just to be certain I was rid of the unclean influences!

Am I supposed to return Nakamori's undergarments to her now...? I don't have any use for them myself. But I've never been in such a situation before! I don't know how to deal with this!

((Okay! I don't know how other people are handling this, but I'm going to say that all posts made on the 15th (including Haruto's last one) are before Issei's rescue, and all posts made after that are after the rescue. It's easier for me to keep track of, and I'd be remiss in not letting his boyfriend have a good panic post. Also, holy crap guys, did you see how many comments were on there? I love all of you for making Shadow!Issei so fun to play~))

Why is that?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I don't know. It's my nature?

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

It must be difficult, to go through life uncomfortable so often.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I'm used to it.

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

It's rather worrisome that you are. I would wish an easier life for you.

I do have the ear of Inari, perhaps ze could help somehow.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I don't know what that is.

Damn you gender-neutral pronouns.

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

Inari? The deity of fertility, rice, agriculture, foxes, industry and worldly success! I'm favored, you see.

They get me every time.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Ah. Well, you don't need to use that eye on my account. I'm content the way I am.

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

You're certain? Don't want things just a little easier for yourself or your loved ones?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I'm going to make things easier for them myself.

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

A noble goal! I do wish you luck in that.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much.

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

You're very welcome, Issei~

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Not welcome enough to make you stop tildeing.

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

No, not really.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Such a shame.

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

Is it really?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Yes, it is. At least from my perspective.

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

Why consider my actions a shame?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Because I could like you, if you didn't seem to take pleasure in driving me up the wall.

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

Well, I like you. You're fun.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

...thank you? I'm not often described as 'fun'.

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

But you are! And it's a pity you're not.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Are you certain you don't just have a strange perspective of fun?

[ravagers-rose.livejournal.com]

Perhaps. But that doesn't change that you're enjoyable to talk to.
