[At first, there's no picture. All that can be seen is a blank screen. However, Issei starts to speak.]

Do you know the festival Ryuujin Matsuri? The dragon god of Fuyuki's river Miongawa rampaged many, many years ago. A traveling monk prayed for three days and three nights. At the end of that, the dragon was converted to Buddhism. The monk joined Ryudoji Temple, and the dragon god taught judo to the monks there.

Myself, I prefer karate.

[Finally a picture appears. It's the hallway of Issei's school. Issei is standing calmly over another male teenager, who is lying on the ground groaning in pain.]

And that's why you're on the floor right now. Hm, that festival is coming up, isn't it? I should be preparing...

((Before anyone gets on my case, him being skilled at karate is obscure, just-translated for me canon. Sob.))

Hou, so yer not completely useless when playing with enemies closer to yer own level, huh?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate them.

[material_guy]

Now, now, don't be like that. I like good storytellers.

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Mr. Issei, are you okay?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I'm fine. He didn't hurt me.

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

That's good! But... Why would he want to?

[stfu-yukatan.livejournal.com]

Whoa.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I've been training for several years, I just don't generally like to make use of it. Monks are pacifists.

[stfu-yukatan.livejournal.com]

And yet you're hiding all that underneath? That was amazing, Issei!

[touchofgenius.livejournal.com]

Well. Damn.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Birkin! Aren't you proud of me?

[touchofgenius.livejournal.com]

I... Had no idea you could do shit like that. This whole time, I've been worried about you when in reality you're... A mini Stein.

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

...well, then.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I do know a little of self-defense.

[jagan-glare.livejournal.com]

For someone who worries every time I get into a skirmish.

[truthinfortune.livejournal.com]

Remind me never to get on your bad side, Issei-kun.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I could never raise a hand to you!

[pandorabox]

I didn't know you knew karate.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I've been studying it for... many years now. I just don't mention it because it makes people think I can defend myself from community members, when normally I can't.

[morethanabot.livejournal.com]

I...wow.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Is that particularly good?

[twotailmechanic.livejournal.com]

Wow, you're pretty good.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I've been training for a while.

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

Wow, that was amazing!

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Midorikawa. I try my best.
