I got so distracted with the coming of spring that I missed my close friend's birthday. I'm terribly sorry, Shiraishi, but I hope the gift I have for you more than makes up for it ( Read more... )

In honor of the first day of spring aka the day I really start to feel like myself, I decided to exercise my abilities since they're stronger.

I took the blue delphinium seeds Shiraishi gave me for my birthday and brought them into full bloom this morning. They're so beautiful. I absolutely love them.

The trip back home was nice. It was so good to see my dad. Plus, I was terribly homesick for some reason. Of course, my sister was absolutely thrilled to see Sanada. I'm convinced she likes him more than me ( Read more... )

Christmas was great even though most of the food was terrible. The desserts were fantastic, so thank you Mizuki and the rest of the Demeter cabin. New Year's Eve wasn't too bad either. I think I expected something to happen. Like a cabin catching fire or Tooyama breaking through a cabin roof. I don't know. It just felt a little underwhelming ( Read more... )

I really don't like that this time of year is the busiest for my dad. I thought about going home for a bit over Chrismas, but it's just a bad time. Plus, my sister and Niou's brother are going to be doing cutesy couple things and ugh, do not want to be around that. Also, my step-mom's family is visiting and it's always super awkward. They have no ( Read more... )

To my second most favorite person in the world that isn't related to me by blood: HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I know you're probably spending your birthday with Tezuka, so I'd like to steal you for a little bit on Sunday, if that's okay with you. I left part of your present in your nest, but you'll get the other part when we celebrate your birthday.

We get a power boost, which is great, but really? No control? I really don't like not being in control. This is bullshit. I might as well just stay in my cabin and prevent anyone from coming around me since I have no way of making sure not to use umbrakinesis on the people I actually like.Tokyo was awesome. Sanada didn't electrocute anyone, but he ( Read more... )

If I had received feedback sooner, we totally could've been home within like three days. That probably would've gotten some kind of recognition. Maybe. Doubt it. Whatever. We're home, that gorgeous kimono is dust in the wind (literally), and I totally got to do things my way got to test out some fantastic new equipment. I have presents for people. ( Read more... )

Kyoto is beautiful this time of year. I'm really glad I brought my sketch book. There is a ton of inspiration. See?

The area we stopped at for the night only has one good thing going for it: picturesque. Other than that, it's boring and I'm not nearly as warm as I would prefer to be. Why couldn't Sanada be on this quest?

On the plus side, only two monsters. That wasn't even a warm-up.
