I finally received a letter back from the Mage's Association? I sent that letter to them in August, it certainly took them a long time to-

Wait, I have a letter from the Mage's Association.

...Someone give me courage to open this. Aside from the concerns over whether or not it could explode, I'm really not certain what it's going to say. They addressed it to me by name, is that a good sign? That is a good sign, right?

You're a stronger person than most of us.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

What makes you say that?

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

A lot of people would just want to stay safe and not risk anything.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I can't do that. My city needs to be able to rest easy.

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

That's why I said you're a stronger person than most people. I wouldn't be able to hide, either, even though I'd be afraid. I want to protect everybody.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

You're a very good person. I'm glad we're friends, Retasu.

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

I try to be, anyways.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Try nothing. You are.

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

...Thank you, Issei-san.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Of course.

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

I'm so happy for you.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Thank you very much.

this is how they react to victories at Cafe Mew Mew

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

Are we celebrating? Should I bring anything over?

[stripping.livejournal.com]

You don't need to, I'm sure I can provide something myself.

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

I can bring another cake anyway! I promise I'll try not to drop it.

(Seriously. Save the city? Party with free cake! Defeat a giant monster? Party with free cake! Get a good mark on a test? Confess your love to somebody who doesn't even work there? Rumoured to have done so? Break a world record of broken glasses (wait, that's just Retasu)? Party with free cake. And then there's their idea of a going-away party, which involves kidnapping you and staging a fake wedding to your significant other just so the artist can shoehorn drawing Ichigo in a wedding dress as a prize to the winner of a Nakayoshi poll.)

If you like, I'm sure that I won't complain.

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

Okay! I will be over soon, then, once I get somebody to take me.

[stripping.livejournal.com]

Thank you. I'll be happy to see you.

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

Thank you!

(Action? Also, we should probably decide whether he's been over yet to see the plant-covered city and certifiably insane cafe.)

[stripping.livejournal.com]

You're welcome.

[Action sounds good, and yes, I think he was?]

[action]

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

(Awesome. Assuming, then!)

*Retasu has, to her credit, obtained a cake and managed to have it not end up on the ground. She stands outside the door awkwardly.* Um...

[action]

[stripping.livejournal.com]

[Smiling, Issei exits the door and goes to greet her at the gate. He takes the cake from her promptly so she doesn't drop it.]

Good to see you again.

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

*bows* Hello! I thought I should do something for you, so I brought something over. I helped make this one, so I hope it isn't too bad.

[action]

[stripping.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it's delicious. Please, come in, it's too cold to stay outside.

[action]

[100thbrokendish.livejournal.com]

All right. *steps in, leaving her shoes at the front and folding up her jacket. She quickly looks herself over to brush off any flour or sugar left behind on her; even though she's changed out of her waitress uniform, there's still a risk of tracking baking stuff through the house.* Thank you very much. Um...
