Sender: Huntsman (Red Riding Hood) | Rokurou Rangetsu
Recipient: EVERYBOOOOODY (yeah yeah)

Hey guys, Rokurou here! That last story was pretty crazy, huh? But another job well done...I think?

[He's pretty sure the story changed from the original, but you know what, this version is so much cooler.]

Anyway, two things.

One, we should throw a party to celebrate! I mean we did succeed, right? So why not have a party for it? I can help supply the meat, Eizen can help with the drinks. [Yes, he did just volunteer Eizen for this without asking. Yep.] Everyone can be invited, especially if anyone new has arrived. You, too, Disciple :P

Second, has anyone else planted that stone we got as part of our reward? I got alcohol flowing out of mine and it's awesome. Too bad it's only one type, so still going to have to bother you, Eizen.

Oh, Cyrus! I was thinking we need to somehow go back to that candy place and see if we can take a piece to try and plant it here. Maybe it'll work?

Anyway, back on that party, since it's getting warmer, we could have a barbecue or something, maybe down by the river. Get a few steaks and ribs going, grilled fish. Kotori your pot can make just about anything, right?

Let's just pick a day to kick back and relax, how does that sound?

[Party! Party! Party!

ooc: just a side note that this entry is going out before Hyde decides to smack the wall. OH and threadjacking is A-OK this is completely public so have fun.]

Comments

[takeittothebridge]

A party, huh? That sounds like a pretty good welcome to me.

[rokubro]

Heh, glad you think so!

You're new, right? Think I saw your message, but uh. That was after we came back. Didn't really check the journal much since I had to deal being a princess, so sorry about that.

Have a late welcome!

[takeittothebridge]

Hey, no worries. I'd heard that everyone was in the middle of something, so it's no big deal. But thanks. [And, because he can't help himself.] So what princess were you?

[rokubro]

[....Uuuuuuggghhhhh.]

Kaguya. Twice.

If she turns out to be a warrior princess from now on, they can blame the Storyteller for picking me of all people.

[takeittothebridge]

Kaguya, huh? That's the Japanese moon princess, right? I mean, turning her into a warrior princess wouldn't be the worst thing in the world.

[rokubro]

Yeah, that's her.

And I can't say I disagree with that. I had read the original and I think our version is a lot more interesting.

[For the wrong reasons.]

[takeittothebridge]

Hey, that's the risk they took when asking us to come here and help fix these stories.

You fixed it.

[rokubro]

Exactly, and it should be a lot stronger and able to deal with those Story Eater minions a lot better now.

[Because it's FULL OF WARRIOR FIGHTING SPIRIT. ...AND A LOT OF ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION yeah this can't go wrong at all.]

So what made you decide to volunteer to help this place out?

[takeittothebridge]

Well, it's kind of hard to ignore a cry for help, isn't it?

Plus, I figured if there was something I could do to help, then why shouldn't I?

[rokubro]

So you're one of those good hero types, huh?

I'll be honest, I'm only in it for the fights.

[takeittothebridge]

Well, I wouldn't say that exactly. I just know what it's like to need a bit of help. And hey, that doesn't mean you're helping any less, right? Sometimes it doesn't matter why, so long as you're still doing something.

[rokubro]

Heh, fair enough. I'll admit it's also been kind of fun handling these stories.

So what kind of essence is yours? Never heard of "Orpheus."

[takeittothebridge]

Considering we're kind of rewriting them, I can see the appeal. [Oh boy here we go.] Orpheus was a figure in Greek Mythology who had the ability to pretty much charm anyone who listened to his music.

[rokubro]

So a musician, huh? Do you already know how to play?

[takeittothebridge]

Well, this is really the first time I've really tried playing this particular instrument. But yeah, back home I can play a few things.

[Or a lot.]

[rokubro]

Still, probably makes it easier. Have you figured out what kind of skills you have?

[takeittothebridge]

I think so. It's kind of similar to something I could do back home.

[Just less concerning.]

When I'm playing music or singing, I can kind of...charm, I guess is the right word? Whoever happens to be listening.

I've had a lot of bird audiences when I've been practicing.

[rokubro]

Charm, huh? Have you met with Roxas yet? Wonder if you two have any shared abilities.

And might want to watch where those birds are when you're singing.

[.......Yeah couldn't resist a small joke on that one.]

[takeittothebridge]

The name doesn't sound familiar. I'll keep a lookout for him, though.

And yeah, no kidding. Luckily being able to charm them means I can make sure they stay far enough away.

[rokubro]

He's a fun kid, so you might get along and who knows. Maybe start a band.

[Which. Would be kind of interesting, honestly.]

Hah! That's one way to solve that problem. I might be interested to see how your skills work in battle.

[takeittothebridge]

Well, I'm all for starting a band. I'll definitely try to meet up with him. Well, from what I remember, he wasn't really much of a fighter. But I wouldn't mind testing it out sometime.

[rokubro]

I'll be looking forward to the end results.

And don't worry about it. I can do the fighting for you if you bring support.

[The DPS wants his buffs—]

[takeittothebridge]

That I can do.

[rokubro]

Sounds good to me, heh. Just try not to charm me on accident.

[takeittothebridge]

I can try, but I make no promises. [Over text, it might be hard to get the teasing undertone.]
