May. 30th, 2010 03:37 amLet's never go through that again. For one thing, I would rather not put all of you who rescued me to the trouble of fetching me. (Except for Greed. I don't care about Greed.) For another, I really don't think I like being paraded before a group of magi.
Which reminds me, if any magi are reading this?
Kindly fuck off. You won't touch any of my beloved, understood?
((Comments on the RL are still continuing, don't worry. Replies to this when I wake up.))

May. 8th, 2010 02:23 am[Issei is praying. Anyone who knows anything of Japanese Buddhism will recognize that. Even those who aren't familiar will know that he isn't doing it very well. He keeps stopping and restarting after making a mistake. Eventually, he gives up altogether.]
I'm a failure as a monk... If I cannot purify myself of such base thoughts, of what use am I? I should, should be running the streets rather than living in a temple!
[There's a loud thunk.]
Ow. Even beating my head against the wall will not remove these thoughts, it seems. Dear Buddha, help me...

[Issei is shaking with the force of his sobs. He's obviously been crying for a while.
Eventually, the sobs slow down enough for him to get some words out in between them.]
That wasn't me. The person who hospitalized my father and brother, who drove the other monks to attack each other, who spoke to you all so cruelly - that wasn't me. I could never do such a thing to my family!
Why, wh-why did this happen? What did I possibly do to deserve anyone's ire enough for them to do this? Why did I fail my family and let this happen?! I should have resisted, I should have...
Father... R-Reikan-nii...
[And he bursts into a fresh wave of tears.]

Mar. 10th, 2010 07:15 amI have a question - how do you convince your father that just because you've turned nineteen and have a boyfriend, it is not a good time to start speaking of heirs? I love him dearly, but he takes the duties that come from being the head of the temple too much to heart. I haven't even inherited yet, and I'm not old enough to have children!
[Fail!private]
I wish this wound would heal quickly. It's in an obvious place that draws questions, and how am I to explain that the day-to-day affairs of a monk led me to being pricked with a weapon? I'm not even sure of what happened, myself.
((Part 1 of the Mukuro plot is go! ...yeah, part 1's not that interesting. Part 2 comes tomorrow and will be much cooler.))

[Open RL - Issei's birthday party.]
Mar. 3rd, 2010 07:05 pmThe temple had a large room with tables and chairs, usually used for meetings between the monks. Right now it had been appropriated for Issei's birthday party, and was full of food and streamers. Guests were milling about, talking to each other and waiting for Issei to arrive.
Which he did, dropping his jaw at the sight. "Wh-what is all this?"
((Feel free to talk to each other and to Issei! Enjoy~))

Feb. 21st, 2010 03:33 pmHiwatari, go back to school. It's important, your family connections won't get you everything in life.
In other reaction-related news, my boyfriend doesn't think I'm a tramp, and his and my opinions are frankly the only ones that are actually relevant in this matter. ...Though the amount of people coming out of the woodwork to support me was refreshing.

The camera opens on Issei's empty bedroom, facing the door. Nothing unusual to note here, nope.
Nothing unusual to note, that is, until Issei flings the door open and practically prances into the room. He skips, he does a little twirl at the end, he radiates joy in every possible way.
Then, very carefully, he takes something out of his pocket; a flower. Issei stares at it in a manner that can only be described as lovingly, before holding it close to his chest with a blissful expression. He sets the flower inside of a vase on a shelf, and keeps his blissful expression until the feed ends.

Dec. 21st, 2009 12:37 amYou know, I had almost forgotten what it was like to have to actually campaign for student council president. I've been running unopposed for so long... I ought to see if the council has made any progress toward finding a replacement for me.
I'd say that I was grateful that my teachers were not normally that strange, except I can't actually decide if Fujimura-sensei makes a more bewildering English teacher than Excalibur-sensei.
Ah, and Kuroba, I was serious about what I said to you on the subject of making sure you could attend one of Kid's heists. I'm more determined to, since Kid is now more likely to listen to my concerns than he was. What is your schedule?

Nov. 30th, 2009 07:30 am[The camera clicks on, and Issei's face immediately comes into view. He looks tired and worse for wear, but his eyes are the same old blue that they usually are, and when he lets out a sigh and starts to speak, it's with his own voice.]
Could someone tell me why I've been unconscious for a week?
((Tatsumi supernaturally-powered bitchslapped possessed!Issei into submission. Issei has absolutely no memory of what happened while he was possessed. Any interaction with possessed!Issei we didn't get to may be assumed. Due to computer troubles, I'm making sure to post this now: comments might be a bit later.))

Nov. 22nd, 2009 05:57 pmWhile the variety of virused posts is admittedly a change of pace, I'd rather know for certain what my friends on here could be afflicted by so I would know how much to worry. Since that reassurance isn't available right now - everyone? Could you at least tell me if you're in any immediate danger? Most viruses aren't harmful, but there have to be some in the history of the community that have been...
As for me, I don't seem to be affected. Nothing of more interest than drawing water from the well with Kuzuki-nii happened today, and even the memory-altering viruses are interesting. That's something to be grateful for.
((Issei's affected by the 'what if?' virus - more specifically, what if Kuzuki and Caster had survived the war. Possessed!Issei will come after too many questions get asked, and his/her/its? intro will be in a separate post.))

[Voice post - worst fear virus.]
Oct. 21st, 2009 07:16 amReally, Shirou, if you're home for the week, you should at least answer the door. [Issei sounds about as calm as normal, if a tad annoyed.] I told you I was coming over, so you have no excuse. Ah, well, it's for reasons like this that I have a key.
[The sound of footseps.] Not in the living room... He's probably in the shed and couldn't hear me, I suppose. [More of Issei's footsteps.]
It's locked. Shirou, are you in there? [A moment's pause.] No answer. Maybe he's out w-
Isn't that blood?
[There's a few loud blunt sounds, like someone throwing themselves bodily at a door, then a loud crash.]
Shirou?! Please be okay, please be okay, this isn't allowed to happen, that sort of thing can't happen if I'm here, you have to be okay, please- Why, why aren't you breathing, you can't not be breathing, I have to protect you, I won't forgive you if you don't start breathing this instant! Are you listening?! I'm telling you to start recovering! Please, please, please-
How could I let such a thing... I wasn't here fast enough. I won't forgive myself for not able to protect you.
((Issei's worst fear is being unable to protect a friend. And before anyone asks, the dead body is a virus-induced illusion - I won't really kill off Shirou as an NPC.))

[Virus, and fail lock to Haruto.]
Oct. 9th, 2009 07:17 amUm, Haruto? Would you mind terribly if I stopped telling people that we were married? It's a bit difficult to explain why it's not on our records or how it was at all legal, since I can't tell random strangers about other worlds, but I didn't want to offend you by not mentioning it when they asked.
Anyway, I'll see you when you wake up unless I'm making breakfast at the time. In that case, I suppose you'll read this first.
EDIT: Well, this appears to be public, and there's no use removing it now. So I'll just take this opportunity to apologize for forgetting all of you. It wasn't intentional, I wasn't joking around, and if I hurt you inadvertently through any callousness, please forgive me.
((...Issei needs to stop getting fake memories, seriously.))

If anyone was concerned after seeing Vanessa's post - I'm still alive. Being stomped on hasn't really assisted my recovery from the aforementioned gunshot wounds, but it could have been much worse.
Three labors down, twelve to go.
...I wish I could explain myself. I have a reason! If they knew why I was doing this, I know they'd agree it's more important than their inns or their labs or their collars. I just - if I explain, I've broken my agreement, and it's all for naught. It's too important to let it all be for naught.
((Cuddy's underwear is next. Arc, do you want to start interfering?))

Today is the first day of my labors, I suppose. I should decide quickly what I'm going to need to learn for this.
Most of them involve sneaking around, breaking in, and taking things, aside from one that involves entering a... digital world and finding someone, and one that involves defeating someone at poker.
I should get the easy one out of the way first, even if I know that person specifically and would rather not. I'll need to get a worldhop to Inaba, then.
Besides that, I'll have to learn all the tools of the skullduggery trade. Kuzuki would have been an excellent teacher, it's a shame that I can't...
I wonder if I'm allowed to get help for this. Although I don't know anyone who'd help steal things without knowing the reasons, which I can't give.
((First one up is defacing the Amagi Inn~ Also, to anyone involved in the tasks: instead of RLs, which would probably be repetitive 'sneak sneak sneak oh god I'm screwed', do you want to assume he succeeds/succeeds but gets caught/fails hilariously as appropriate?))
