Thank you~

Capturing kind-hearted princes is unacceptable! I had hoped that my first encounter with a witch would be pleasant, and that I could try riding a broomstick, but it looks like I was wrong.

Know this! Opossum-san, Ogre-san and I will be storming your castle and rescuing Prince Ishida! If you wish to avoid severe property damage, you will set him free at once.

Everyone is still talking about the meteor shower! I wonder how many wishes were made? There must have been a lot...

Oh, Nia-san! If you still wanted to meet and maybe have lunch...what would be a good day for Nia-san?

[there is a rustling sound as she goes through a dresser drawer]

I don't know...blue or yellow? The blue one, I think!

Okay! Let's see...

...Well, I'll just ask, I guess! Would anyone mind letting me tie them up?



[ooc; IT IS TOTALLY INNOCENT. Sort of. She has no clue, really. ;-; ]

I don't think I'm cursed today! But since a lot of people are talking about themselves, I thought that I'd share a few truths, too!

* My birthday is September 3rd

* My best friend is Arisawa Tatsuki

* Last night, I dreamed that I was a squirrel

* Cooking, crafts and martial arts are a few of my hobbies!

* I also love red bean paste, sweet potatoes with butter, hot dogs and peanut butter, zucchini brownies...

* And robots and skirts and movies and stories about alien abduction...!

What about everyone else?!

Tatsuki-chan, do you think we could close the shop early today? I was wondering...well, since today is a nice day, we should go do something fun! Not that working isn't fun! But...you know what I mean.

Kurotsuchi-san, thank you for the notes. They helped a lot! I think I remember most things, now. Or at least I don't think I'm forgetting anything...

Spring is already here! Maybe we should put up decorations in the Tanabata Video Store?

[Orihime's voice is soft as she speaks.]

I'm here!

...You see, Kurosaki-kun, I came to say good-bye.

There are actually a lot of other people I want to say good-bye to as well. Like Tatsuki-chan, and Sado-kun, and Ishida-kun, and Kuchiki-san --

[And this is when she abruptly stops speaking after noticing Yuzu and Karin. After thinking about them she realizes that this is the first time she has ever been in Ichigo's room, goes to give him a kiss...and can't bring herself to do it. Now she sounds tearful.]

I can't. I can't do it afterall. I'm no good. This is the end, and I'm acting like this...

[Orihime then takes a moment to pull herself together before continuing.]

Kurosaki-kun, there were so many things I wanted to do. I wanted to become a teacher, an astronaut, and a baker! I wanted to go to a bunch of different donut shops and ask for one of everything! And I wanted to ask the ice-cream man for one of everything, too!

[She lets out a long sigh, still thinking of everything she wanted to do.]

If only I had five lifes! Then I could have been born in five different towns, eaten five lifetime's worth of food, and have five different careers, and...

I could fall in love with the same person, five times.

Thank you, Kurosaki-kun. Good-bye.

[ooc; Cursed. DX Pretend this was posted earlier? I used translations from both the anime and manga. ;-; B-be gentle with her? ♥ All replies will be from when she's snapped out of it. ]

[There's the frantic sound of little feet running all over, before she trips over the communicator.]

B-Brother! Where are you?! You never leave without saying good-bye first!!

[You can hear muffled crying because she loves her brother and cannot fathom why he is not here. =( ]

And...this isn't home! Oh, no... I don't remember going off with strangers because Brother always told me not to and I would never because it would make him upset and worry!! I have to find him!

Do people generally prefer hand-made gifts for Christmas, or store bought gifts?

HELLO EVERYONE!!

Welcome to the City!

Um...wow, there really do seem to be a lot of people! Maybe there will end up being two cities...?!

If anyone needs anything, there are a lot of nice people around who are always willing to help new people out! Oh, and be careful, because --

[beeping noise in the background, and Orihime is flailing]

Gotta go, my zucchini brownies are done!!


[ooc; What the hell, anything goes~]

( private; )

Today seems like a good day for a walk in the park! Would someone like to go with me? Though we should all bundle up really well, since everyone has been getting sick... [here she notices the shadow] lately...

[And here is one of those awkwardly long pauses in which you can tell something is wrong. The shadow is insisting she is glad Rukia is gone and away from Ichigo. ]

...No, that isn't true! I want them to be happy! I want everyone to be happy!

[Pause, and now it's going on about how weak she is and all the trouble she has caused.]

I -- I never said I was strong! But I'm able to at least help a little! And --

[Pause, and the shadow laughs at her, and taunts her about her brother, saying how cruel she was to treat him on that fateful day, and how he would still be alive if she hadn't -- how he never deserved that. And by now Orihime is in tears, almost unable to speak.]

..If...if I could change that, I would...I would give anything to change that!

[One more pause, and the shadow takes it too far by saying how all the people close to her (and more) will die because of her.]

No...NO! STOP IT, STOP IT, STOP IT--!

SANTEN KESSHUN I REJECT!

[And she ends up knocking the communicator over, turning it off.]



[ooc; Okay so I've already got my ticket to hell right here. ._. So I wanted to use this curse to open Orihime up a bit more; get her a bit more CR, let people get closer to her, etc. I didn't want it to be too tl;dr so I summarized what the shadow said in the brackets, and of course no one can hear what it says. Only her reactions. She used Santen Kesshun as a shield in defense, but the light worked to chase the shadow away. I'll have it so that she'll tentatively use the network again an hour or so later (pretend it's an hour or so later, that is XD), or I could do action. I'm flexible. Um, if I forgot anything, drop me a comment or IM me? @_@ 

ETA: Gotta sleep soon, so if I suddenly disappear, I'll tag in the morning!]

Ishida-kun, I hope that you were surprised! And that you had fun!

Thank you to everyone who helped out, too. I really appreciate it. ♥

And...also, I hope everyone is being extra careful! Since lots of people seem to be getting sick, and it's better to be safe than sorry, right? Having to go see a doctor is never fun...though they usually give out stickers!

I think I'm going to make some hot chocolate~

Excuse me everyone!!

Well, that is...if you're a friend of Ishida Uryuu!

Ishida-kun's birthday is on the sixth, and I was wondering...would everyone like to throw him a surprise birthday party?!

I know that Ishida-kun would probably say "that isn't necessary!" but I think he would really like a surprise party. Because, we should all try and do things normally here and have fun, I think. And everyone should have a birthday party no matter how old they are.

We can jump out and yell "SURPRISE!" and have a piñata and do games and eat peanut butter hot dogs! Other things, too, but those are the most important.

Happy Halloween, everyone! ♥

Kuchiki-san, I can't wait to see your costume!!



[ooc; Pretend this was earlier? ^^; I had to take my little brother trick-or-treating. Orihime is dressed as a gangster...person...thing >D Something like this lol if anyone has a better link let me know]

[Orihime arrived just a little while ago near the carousel, feeling disoriented from the time difference. Instead of making a fuss she quietly made her way back to the apartment...where she finds that Tatsuki and the pets aren't there.]


...Tatsuki-chan? Did we move?




[ooc; Aaand, she's back! But not making a big deal out of it or anything. Feel free to have noticed her reiatsu or yell at her XD]

( private; )

Tatsuki-chan...isn't here anymore...

Ishida-kun, thank you again for the skirt!! I wore it today and it's really pretty, and comfortable!

Do fish get tummy aches after eating? Are there special shoe stores for people with two left feet? What do most people like to eat with their pickled radishes?
