[ For a few minutes there, the good citizens of Thor are going to get treated with the sound of this song. The guitar is not perfect and there is a decided amount of wobble to Sho's voice but he seems okay until about half way through where there's a snarl of strings and a muttered Japanese curse. And then the Guide gets picked up and the

[Aya is Aya, and standing behind you.]

It's not so bad.

This came from one of the better brewers in Japan proper. Not even the Chinese can make it right.

[Whistles low, impressed.] The markets here truly do have everything...the good, and the bad.

[Downs the second shot, which was easier to do.]

I never did get to thank you for before. [Gestures to his arm and such.]

[ACTION]

[urnotafraid]

You just got to know who to approach and how to do it. [ The second shot was smoother and he sighs, enjoying the taste. ]

That's okay. I was a cat for a while after anyways.

[ACTION]

[kendonobara]

...you were a what?

Re: [ACTION]

[urnotafraid]

Dite decided to turn people into cats and I was lucky to become one.

[ACTION]

[kendonobara]

...why don't I remember something like that?

[ACTION]

[urnotafraid]

You were being Ran at the time. I had to tell you we were snowboarding so he didn't freak over your arm.

[ And he pours the third shot. ]

[ACTION]

[kendonobara]

...Ran...at the time? [That third shot is now gone. Something is not computing.] What...are you saying?

[ACTION]

[urnotafraid]

Sometimes, you lose your Aya identity and become Ran.

[Aya just...looks to Sho in surprise, then starts to think back to all those times he couldn't remember what happened to him. All those blackouts...]

[It takes a bit longer to draw the dots together because of the sake, but he remains quiet for a while.]

[ACTION]

[urnotafraid]

We weren't going to tell you but I figured that you need to know sooner or later. I'd hate to be in the middle of a job and you switch personalities.

[ Pours the next shot for them both. ]

[ACTION]

[kendonobara]

...heh. I really am a mess.

[He looks at the sake, frowning.]

What did I...know?

[ACTION]

[urnotafraid]

You remember up to the festival with your sister. After that is a complete blank.

[ACTION]

[kendonobara]

[He scoffs derisively.]

All I ever wanted was to go back to how things were, and I can't even remember that I did. [He knocks back the shot, swallowing, then sighing.] Kind of.

[ACTION]

[urnotafraid]

I think we all have those moments.

[ Tosses his shot back and sets the glass down, frowning at the rings on the table. ]

There's flashes of you there. You've got quite a temper even as Ran.
