Murderer...

[tomoka_hime]

It's been difficult going out since the announcement. I've been keeping the twins home from lessons as well and auntie and uncle have upped the guards, even having some sent to our smaller home. I don't like the buzz around the area right now and have no desire to go out. To think that after all that time the Aquila's back...

I may only be an old tutor but let me know, Osakada-san, if there is anything I can be of assistance with.

[tomoka_hime]

Thank you, Sakaki-san... I'm really not sure what you could assist us in right now I'm afraid, but I'll keep it in mind. Forgive me for not keeping in contact, there just hasn't been much time for me to get lessons of my own.

[sakakitarou]

I quite understand. I can call by, and tutor the twins at home in lieu of their regular teacher, should you like.

[tomoka_hime]

That would be quite lovely actually, but I don't want to bother you from your usual work either.

I imagine you don't really want to be bothered too much right now, but if you need me, I'll be happy to come over and talk if you like. ...And if not, well, I'll most likely still end up showing up at your gate whether or not your uncle tries to tell the guards to make me leave, but I felt I would be a gentleman and politely ask first.

Thank you Jackal... I really do appreciate it. I just... I don't want to go out at all and I don't know what to do...

Re: Screened

[gracious_savior]

Stay where you are, then, and I'll come to you. I can't say I'll be able to tell you what you should or shouldn't do, as it's not my place to make up your mind on anything, but I can still be there for you and lend an ear like I always have.

That sounds really nice, I know the twins aren't happy about things right now but I just can't let them out with things like this. It was enough to go through once and I just... I'm afraid and angry and just a mess...

[kaba_kuma]

I know...this might not seem like much...but I'll protect you. You and the twins. I swear it. I won't let anyone past me that you don't want. On my honor.

[tomoka_hime]

Thank you Kabaji, it means a lot to us, really.

[kaba_kuma]

Usu.

[ooc: as of this, Kabaji's taken to patroling the Osakada house at all hours of the day and night. He'll also be HOVERING over Tomo and the boys when ever they are out...and very close when they have company]

Osakada-san, please send word to the station if you do not wish to be out on the streets unattended. I've left a standing order with my men that you are to be escorted at your request.

[tomoka_hime]

Ara, thank you Sir Kaji. It's greatly appreciated, but for now staying inside is just fine. I have my servants to take care of things in town in the meantime so there's no need for me to trouble you or your men.

[regal_revolt]

It will be no trouble, I assure you, Osakada-san. And while you may wish to remain inside for the time being, sometimes circumstances are beyond control.

[tomoka_hime]

Well... for now I'd like to spare my brothers the initial frenzy that's been occurring. The rest I will deal with myself. Thank you again, though I believe it means I should be expecting a visit then?
