The minds of shinobi
I don't understand nightmares. I don't think I have them, but I could. I usually forget my dreams about five seconds after waking up, so I never wake up with a cold, heavy feeling in my stomach or anything like that. And I'm not scared of anything in my own head, I just figure that I have to understand that there's a really strong link between the mind and body and in order to be a strong shinobi, I have to be the master of my own mind.
I can't protect people from their own minds. And I really can't go around feeling like I should because that's just crazy, but I feel like I'm failing Ha'sen now because I can't help him.
I should stop counting my failures. The number is getting high.
(OOC: This entry is back dated. The actual RP was on Sept. 23, but since Ichigo has been involved in an ongoing mission since Sept. 14 that hasn't ended yet, RPs out of the on-going mission's timeframe have to take place before then. As for entries about the on-going mission, I'm just not writing anything until its finished. It would be bad form for a ninja to stop in the middle of a mission to update the ol' LJ, now wouldn't it?)
