[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.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

It's a very old story. I didn't write it myself.

[material_guy]

It's all in the telling. I'm tryin' to praise you here, Monk.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

...Thank you, then.

[material_guy]

You can do it when you try! Yer welcome, yer welcome!

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Don't make such a big deal out of it.

[material_guy]

I really am just giving you shit on this one.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

You don't think it was a good story?

[material_guy]

Nn? No, no, I really was praising the tellingthing! It's the second part I'm hecklin' ya over.

There're a lot of things I can say "nice job!" to you about, but if you seriously need to be praised for having the decency to give an honest "thanks!" then no wonder I give you so much shit.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

You know, I don't have to deal with this reaght now.

[material_guy]

This mean I'm not gonna be able to talk you into usin' those story tellin' skills to tell a dirty story?

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Mr. Issei, are you okay?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

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

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Aha. No.

[stfu-yukatan.livejournal.com]

Whoa.

[touchofgenius.livejournal.com]

Well. Damn.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Birkin! Aren't you proud of me?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

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

[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.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I am not! I can defeat normal teenagers. Normal adults, I have more trouble with, but I can do. Magically powered or well-trained teenagers and adults? (Read: everyone else on the community?) I can only slightly delay my defeat.

B-but thank you. For worrying about me.

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