Volunteer

[goldengreen]

I may have drank slightly too much last night. Perhaps I shouldn't have started at 9 am with that bottle of wine my parents left me. I am going to sit still and only look at books with waterproof covers in case ... well.

Eiji I don't even want to think about what you did last night, I hope you enjoyed your day.

Last weekend's trips around the local shrines and temples was very interesting and peaceful. It was good to get away from everyone for a while. One of the bigger temples is looking for volunteer tour guides. I've put in an application. I would be able to speak both Japanese and English and perhaps even practice my French a little. I think it would be a good thing to do with part of my weekends alone, since no one belongs in shrines here.

Is that better, Eiji? The things I do ...

^________________________^ I did! Didja have fun at the wedding?

[g0ldengreen.livejournal.com]

It wasn't as bad as it could have been.

I don't even remember most of it.

It was really special, Eiji. And you did look amazing.

[pousser-ailes.livejournal.com]

Yay! I'm really glad you came, Oishi ^o^

[g0ldengreen.livejournal.com]

You... you are?

[ooc: awww XD]

[pousser-ailes.livejournal.com]

'course I am! Why would I make you come for it if I didn't want you there, Oishi?

[g0ldengreen.livejournal.com]

Well, you're friends with Fuji so one can never rule out raw sadism. True! I am really glad it made you happy, Eiji! (There, two exclamation marks).

[pousser-ailes.livejournal.com]

See, that wasn't so hard, right~?

Now for another reaaaallly important question... Are you really gonna go be a monk like Yuushi-sama keeps saying?

[g0ldengreen.livejournal.com]

Would you no longer care for me if I said 'yes', Eiji?

[ooc: yeah, now *you* get teased XD]

[pousser-ailes.livejournal.com]

Nuh uh! Why would I? Monks're cool!

... Does that mean yes or no?

[g0ldengreen.livejournal.com]

What do you think?

[pousser-ailes.livejournal.com]

... No?

[g0ldengreen.livejournal.com]

Perhaps ^.~

[pousser-ailes.livejournal.com]

:o

What exactly would a monk do? Would you give people their new year fortunes 'n stuff?

[g0ldengreen.livejournal.com]

I think Yukimura-kun has already stolen that task. Monks help people to observe religious rites and often school children and adults in Buddhism, as well as seeking greater understanding through prayer and study.

[ooc: does that sound plausible? I confess to having little idea!]

[prettynotweak.livejournal.com]

Do you want your fortune told as well Oishi? :)

[g0ldengreen.livejournal.com]

I would find that interesting, Yukimura-kun.

[prettynotweak.livejournal.com]

Whenever you have time tonight then.

[g0ldengreen.livejournal.com]

To-tonight? Am I ready for this?! No, wait, it's not real. It's fine. Perhaps.

I'll see you late then. Thank you, Yukimura-kun.

[prettynotweak.livejournal.com]

Anytime Oishi-kun :)

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

You tell fortunes, Yukimura-sama?

[prettynotweak.livejournal.com]

You too then? :)

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

Me? Goodness, no. My sister had a friend at college who read tarot cards, though.

[prettynotweak.livejournal.com]

Pity. I do love making up stories

(ooc: strikes deleted)

[g0ldengreen.livejournal.com]

You should have your fortune read, Ohtori-kun. I would like you to accompany me to visit Yukimura-kun regardless. I won't go into Sole alone.

[silverfromsteel.livejournal.com]

Of course I'll accompany you if you wish me to, Oishi-sama, but I think I'll pass on having my fortune read - I've never put a whole lot of stock in the idea that one's future is set. Though the theory behind all the meanings does seem fascinating.
