Pean-NUT-Cat.....!!! [Daniel, of course..I don't know about Xer! *Laughs*] As long as I'm not in teh building at teh time while: a) my empathic sense is at full power (though someone usually has to be within sight). b) I have my basic senses on full blast for whatever reason (by teh way, with focus I can see outside teh normal human visible spectrum, and even under normal circumstances I can see outside of it as much as some insects can and such). c) both at once. Because I really don't wanna "walk in" on that. [bleah]

Hey Stampers, didya get my e-mail? I was also able to finally pre-order vol. 6 of 'Immortal Rain.' It looks like a good one! Yes, I did, and I sent you an email on that--THANKS! Oh, and you might be happy to hear THESE two bits of news: --I requested "Fruits Basket" from Netflix, and although they didn't say they would go right out and get it, they are usually quite swift about getting DVD's that have been specifically requested [keep checking]--after all, they DO advertise that if it's ON DVD, they SHOULD have it, Right!? --I don't know if you've ever heard of "I My Me--Strawberry Eggs", but I think you MIGHT wanna' "sample" it, now that Netflix carries this anime....Why? Because it's about a male teacher who is SO DESPERATE to get a teaching job that he masquerades as a woman to teach in an all-FEMALE school AND HE'S VOICED BY CRISPIN FREEMAN!!!!!!!!!! [How's THAT for "incentive", eh!?] I saw a commercial for it, and it was HILARIOUS, especially teh bit where teh guy Bravely Proclaims, "I WILL prove that a MAN can be JUST as "Nuturing" as ANY WOMAN!!!" THAT statement just about killed me, I was laughing so hard!!!

Actually for some reason I have spells where I don't recognize very obvious words. And I'll just sit and stare at them thinking... "What does that say" or "who exactly is that?" And teh sad thing is... most of teh time... Its MY OWN NAME thats got me confused. And Knives... I'll TRY to remember NOT to call you that... but as of right now... I'm in a rather "silly" mood so who knows WHAT I'm gonna do or say NEXT! ;D

As for your "silly" mood..... Daniel says--"Oh, GOD!"

I was right... I spent a great deal of that night just staring at teh celing TRYING to COMPLETELY turn "off" my abilities as an empath. But so far I STILL couldn't do it completely. I could still sense, though very faintly, Chichiri. But, fortunately, he had fallen alseep after a LONG time. I eventually just gave on trying to isolate myself from my ability and opened teh "flood gate" of emotions from EVERYONE in teh area. I sensed I wasn't teh only person awake. Hotohori was also awake, only he wasn't staring at teh celing but sitting in teh living room looking out a window. I decided to go talk to him. He seemed like he needed a friend about now anywho.
Quietly I walked up teh stairs and stood behind his majesty. "Seems like I'm not teh only one who can't sleep," I said after a few seconds of silence. Hotohori turned, his face in teh "official" mask he had been trained to wear as emperor to hide his TRUE emotions. "Sorry," he appologized. I looked at him quite confused. "For what? What have you done that you are needing to apologize to me for?" "I know about your ability to sense people's emotions and so on. My own inner turmoil must be hard to take on," he said. I put my hand on his shoulder. "Trust me... you are not whats keeping me awake. Nor are you teh ONLY one who's emotions are all mixed up and all. In fact, compared to my own thoughts ane emotions right now... you seem quite calm and peaceful." Hotohori looked at me then nodded. "Also, you aren't teh Emperor any more, you CAN let out your emotions and no one would think any less of you. And if you want, you CAN talk about it, there are plenty of people willing to listen, Hotohori," I said softly. Hotohori turned and went back to looking out teh window again. Just as I was about to give up and go back down staris Hotohori spoke. "Its not fair," he whispered. "I did my best for my country and had just found someone I could wuv and everything suddenly came to a stop. I died. I can't be there for my son... or my wife all because some lunitic wanted to take over my country. But its not my place to question teh gods, after all my country is safe as is my wife and my son. I should be HAPPY for them. But... I... just..." "Its not selfish of you to feel that way, Hotohori. You did well, and unlike most people who have been put in that position, you CHOSE to ride out with your troups to defend your country. I don't recall any of teh other emperors doing anything remotely like that in teh book. It was very noble of you," I said. "But look where its got me. I'm all alone again. I spent most of my childhood alone, I should be used to it. But I just..." He paused. In that moment he did very much look like a lost child, and on teh verge of tears. "I look around and see Tasuki and everyone and how they've found their place in THIS world, this life and I just feel like I've been left behind." He turned and looked at me with very sad eyes, "I don't wanna be ALONE any more!"
With that he fell to his knees and hugged himself trying desperately NOT to cry, but that was one battle he was quickly losing. I knelt next to him and wraped my arms around him and put his head on my shoulder. "Sometimes you just hafta cry, Hotohori. And there is NO shame in that." I patted teh former emperor's head as he FINALLY let loose teh tears he'd been holding back.
It took a while for teh emperor to quit crying... and when he did he couldn't look me in teh face. "I'm sorry you had to see that," he apologized. "Hey, none of that. Now I want you to think about what Imma tell you. There may be a chance that we can bring Houki here, from teh book, if you want. Its similar to how Miranda came here. But you'll hafta ASK Suzaku if he'll grant you that wish. WHich isn't as unreasonable as you seem to think it is. Nor is it as selfish as you think, because I'm sure that Houki is feeling teh same way right now about you. Only she has Boushin to keep her mind occupied. But there will come a time when even THAT won't be of any comfort to her. Think about that for a while, then talk to Suzaku." Hotohori wiped teh remaining tears from his face, and nodded. "I shall take your advice to heart, and retire to my room." With that he stood and offered to help me up. I stood and nodded. "You do that, and if in teh morning you don't feel like gonna teh school to teach, let me know and I'll see if we can't find a sub for your class." Hotohori nodded before turning to go upstairs.
I turned to go back downstairs, feeling somewhat better now that Hotohori's sadness and lonelyness wasn't overwhelming anymore. Granted he was still sad and lonely, but at least NOW there was a spark of hope there as well. After a few minutes of laying in bed and thinking a bit... I finally fell asleep second guessing myself and what I had said to Chichiri earlier.
