That one crack RP with too many underscores. TOH!

[ earlier today, you might have seen a girl and a dog dash past you on a morning run.

That same girl is now looking exhausted but seated by the ocean with a bunch of books on love advice, which she just so happens to be perusing ]

"The ideal woman is delicate and feminine, someone men want to protect"... seriously? Maybe Nakayama can pull that off, but I-- let's try another one.

"The more violent you are, the more your boyfriend is going to be afraid to ever lay a hand on you".

...

"If you're desperate enough, simply follow this simple recipe and slip it into his drink"--

Okay, note to self: never check the library again.

[ so in between guys falling through the roof and small earthquakes, Emiri has been keeping an eye on the roof.

At this moment, more specifically, she is covered in debris and keeping both eyes on the GIANT HOLE in the roof. ]

Seriously?? After all that, one fat monkey? What is it with this place and our roof, is this some kind of karma??

I need a hammer. And not just to kill somebody with.

I don't usually carry along passengers, but I think I can make an exception for you. We're not going to fall over as much when we're not on the ground, right?

... Still, first the snow, now these earthquakes? My routine's getting interrupted all over the place lately! Sorry, Koro-chan, let's call it a morning for now. We can people-gaze for a little while.

((Somewhere high above you, there consists a duo of a girl and a dog perched on a tree branch. They appear to just be chilling and checking out what you're doing.))

It worked for the first day, but I don't think I can keep this up. For starters, I don't have the clothes for it, and with the way the snow's built up, poor Koro-chan would be buried in no time.

That, and... dammit, I was hoping those stupid plants wouldn't make a grand entrance for awhile. Getting back is going to be one huge pain. But most importantly...

Ow.

(( was trying to do her usual run, and now she is flat on her back on a very wide patch of ice. :| ))

[ the night is long and unyielding, but with the morning comes relief and freedom.

... Particularly for a whole bunch of partygoers and very much so for thirteen of them. ]

I am never doing that again. I can't believe I missed nearly all of it! Seriously, what was even the point of that?!

Maybe I'll just go to bed early. Or is that late...? Aaaaah, does it even matter?

[ ooc: MORNING AFTER HALLOWEEN. For all you people who thought Emiri was dead, you can have her alive and well and somewhat annoyed. Also feel free to threadhop and mingle and reunite with all of your friends who aren't as dead as they looked or do highfives or whatever. ]

Soooo, does anyone else think we should make today Stork Hunting Day? I wasn't planning on becoming a mom anytime soon, y'know. And totally not with anyone here, either. I'm sorry, Kazu-sama! I've betrayed you!

I didn't think this was ever gonna show up since it was a rental and it was Akito-kun that had to keep us from being almost forty years in debt. It brings back a lot of memories, though! And to think, all of that hard work and effort and letting Ringo-chan have the spotlight, and that guy completely wasted it all. I bet against any other guy, it would've been foolproof! Absolutely, 120% guaranteed to make him fall to his knees and surrender to love!!

But it's not like everyone here's immune to the call of romance, right? If the island brought this here, then it's gotta be a sign. Act swiftly and decisively, yet remain sweet and subtle! There's a fine balance, and I'm going to have to teach it!

If it's romance--! If you're out there wanting to woo some guy-- or girl, I guess-- who seems impossible to approach or win over, Emiri Adachi is here for you, to guide you on that path! And don't be shy-- I know you're out there.

((In this, with a bunch of other elaborate costumes nearby. Do feel free to drop by with your love problems. Or just walk by, she'll pounce you anyways.))

It's happened before, so I shouldn't get worried, or mad, or anything like that. Kazu-sama wouldn't want me to do that.

He might come back again, right? Or maybe I'll get to go home for real this time. Hahahaha... haha... ha...

Aaaaaaagh, but now I'm going to have to be Ikki-kun's babysitter even more now!! Where's Ringo-chan when you need her?? Or hell, even Akito-kun could handle it! Of all of the people from back home I had to be stuck with, of course it had to be him!!

You stupid island, aren't you bored enough?? Stop screwing with me!

((Sigh Kazu left again, but at least she's not breaking too much property.))

Okay, Emiri, you can do this. Come on, you've been kidnapped and gotten through it just fine! And what about Gabishi? That might've been incredibly scary, and maybe it kind of hurt like hell, but you got through that, too! And with Genesis! And infiltrating that cult although I swear I felt someone grab my ass--

The point is, this is nothing compared to all of that! You can do this! Go, go, go!! Deep breath, and--!

Kazu-sama, I need to talk to you!

.....

......... There'snowayIcandothis.

((Yes, she is trying to peptalk herself into confessing for real this time. :|))

Okay, I'm sorry I said you'd never get a girlfriend. Even if you're ugly and rabid, that doesn't always mean it's hopeless! I mean, hell, this is coming from a girl who hasn't really had a normal date in... well, let's see, there was the face-ripping one, and having to deal with Vergil-san, oh and the zombie bastard wanting to eat me, so...

...

... Okay, who hasn't had a normal date in ever. But that's beside the point.

The point is that's no excuse to string me up like this!!!

((In the newest round of Emiri vs. monkeys, we find our heroine hanging upside down with hands bound and wrapped in vines and trying to swing free.))
