Start of #Youkai buffer: Fri Nov 06 08:14:58 2009 [18:04:16] [It's a foggy Tuesday, and it's lunchtime. Looks like it's oden today.] [18:04:18] [Session Start] [18:06:00] Ready for lunch, Kentaro? [18:06:59] Oh, yeah, necessarily! [18:07:14] * Kentaro packs away his books and slings his pack over his shoulder and gets heading down [18:07:24] * Berny picks up her stuff and heads to the cafeteria with Kentaro. [18:15:48] * The table seems to be nice and free today [18:18:31] * Megumi arrives a bit late, grabbing her lunch and heading to the table. [18:20:30] * Kentaro arrives at the table and begins unpacking his food, hunching low over it as usual [18:21:05] * Berny sits by Kentaro and across from Megumi and neatly unwraps her everyday lunch. [18:22:08] * Miki walks by. "Kentaro, it's not good for your back to hunch over like that while you eat." [18:24:20] * Berny makes note to sit up straighter herself as she picks up her sandwich. "Miki's probably right." [18:24:35] * Kentaro pulls his head up and stares, wide-eyed, and he struggles to swallow. Finally: "You never let me have any fun." [18:25:20] * Megumi snickers. [18:25:23] * She has a seat. [18:25:29] Hi, Miki. [18:25:46] You okay, Kentaro? [18:30:19] Well, I was before my special little raincloud got all Dr. Scoliosis on my mealtime. [18:30:21] * Kentaro pouts. [18:30:56] Aw, well, it probably -is- healthier to sit up more. I guess I slouch too much, too. [18:30:57] Dr. Sco...scu...scur...what? [18:31:43] * Kentaro gets out a notebook from his backpack and draws what looks like a hunchback, with a mysterious bulge in the front of his pants. [18:31:59] The hunchback is the scolithing. The bulge is just funny. [18:32:24] WHere'd you learn that word, anyway? [18:33:01] * Berny nearly spits out her sandwich and covers her mouth to muffle her laugh. [18:33:35] Oh, uh, it was from the posture screening they did way back in small times. What, like second year? [18:33:49] They warned me I might get it, so it kinda stuck. [18:34:21] * Megumi looks at the hunchback curiously. "You and your fancy words." [18:34:45] It's the mark of an edjumated hunam. [18:34:48] * Kentaro crosses his arms [18:36:32] * Berny smiles. [18:37:27] Edju...man, you are so full of it. [18:37:34] * Miki starts eating [18:37:47] * Berny goes back to her sandwich now that she's recovered. [18:43:27] So how's the play stuff been going on your side? [18:44:47] Pretty good for me, at least. Megumi? [18:44:50] Pretty good! Well, I think so...I mean, I'm learning my lines but Kentaro isn't very happy about something? [18:45:33] * Berny glances sidelong at Kentaro while sipping her juice. [18:46:45] Something about Emmy doing something really stupid or somethin' [18:46:45] It's a matter of principle. I mean, I kinda expect that girl to basically do the dumbest possible thing at any given moment, but even if it works, it's still just ugh. [18:48:52] Like what? I don't think I've talked to her much. [18:49:27] * Megumi folds her arms. "Well _I_ think it's working." [18:50:38] Oh, something with tag, I dunno. It's giving me a headache just thinking about it. [18:53:38] * Berny ducks her head and continues eating without participating in the argument. [18:55:41] * Miki starts eating. "Oh well. As long as it gets results... by the way, what's with the weather? It's getting really annoying to ride my bike here. [18:56:52] Well I still don't think it's dumb. [18:56:56] * Megumi digs in to her lunch [18:57:29] Huh. Like, annoying how? [18:57:40] * Berny looks up at Miki. [18:58:47] It's raining, then it's sunny, then it's foggy, sometimes it's just cold and sometimes really hot. [19:02:01] Oh. Um. You know. Weather can be pretty random sometimes! [19:04:31] * Berny laughs nervously, then quickly finishes off her sandwich. [19:04:42] Yeah, I suppose so. [19:06:49] * Megumi shrugs. [19:12:04] No meeting today... maybe it'll be good to take some time off. [19:12:08] Or maybe study. [19:13:00] We were kinda going to do that study group yesterday but got sidetracked... [19:13:03] * Kentaro nods. "Yeah. If I don't graduate, I might have to go back to eating out of trash cans." [19:13:54] Kentaro! [19:14:31] What? It's not so bad. I found a bag of shrimp once! [19:14:54] * Berny gulps and looks a bit paler. "Didn't it make you sick?" [19:15:02] Naaaah. [19:15:05] Maybe. [19:15:06] Nah. [19:16:43] I'm pretty sure it did... it's... well, you were rolling around after that, but you do that sometimes anyway. [19:17:18] It's fun! [19:17:59] Well, let's make sure you -do- graduate, then. [19:18:12] I suppose. [19:19:09] * Kentaro begins drawing a trash can, full of clearly delicious foods, like turkey legs, hamburgers, and noodles [19:20:54] Hey, real trash cans don't have stuff like that, unless it's no good to eat. [19:21:41] Or in one of those video games. [19:26:31] * Miki frowns. "JUst take better care of yourself, alright?" [19:26:38] * Berny nods. [19:29:23] I mean, there's your posture, then the garbage can stuff we just talked about... then there were those candles. ... oh! That reminds me. I might be good to bake the cookies soon. [19:31:13] Hey, I might be pretty, but I'm a tough guy, too! I can handle all that. [19:31:18] But, uh... thanks. [19:34:59] * Megumi continues to snicker at Kentaro. [19:47:33] Hey, I gotta go meet Shinobu in a bit for a class thing. I'll see you tomorrow, okay? [19:49:50] Yeah, sure, I'll see you later, lady [19:50:40] * Miki nods, then heads off. [20:06:13] Uh, who's Shinobu? [20:06:58] * Kentaro remembers now. Some girl that sits next to Miki in class. [20:07:41] Oh, right, I remember now. Some girl that sits next to Miki in class. [20:12:55] * Megumi shrugs. "Whatever. So, you wanna have that study session after school today? Or you want me to prove that all this practice for the play is workin'?" [20:14:43] I'll take your word for it, and then if you're wrong, I'll just knock over the trash cans at Emmy's house [20:16:06] * Megumi cracks up. [20:28:06] Man, remind me to actually get rid of the trash first next time I'm gonna piss you off. [20:28:38] * Kentaro laughs. "Sure thing." [20:45:08] * Some time later, Natsuki approaches the table. "Hello." [20:45:25] Heeeey, Natcchan, what's up? [20:46:05] School as usual. These tests are a bother. [20:47:08] Yeah. I was gonna skip out on them, but apparently Miki doesn't want me eating out of the trash. You know how girls get. [20:47:53] * Natsuki frowns. "Yeah, well... you'd probably do that even if you aced the tests, all things considered." [20:49:21] Well, you know, if people would stop throwing delicious things away, I wouldn't do it. [20:49:28] So I think I'm a victim of society. [20:50:47] I guess that depends on what you consider delicious. [20:53:05] I guess Shizuru leaving that special garbage can outside doesn't help things [20:53:43] I think it helps a lot. [20:56:43] ...wait, she leaves a garbage can out specifically for him to root through? [21:01:42] Well... [21:02:21] * Kentaro nods. "They keep everything boxed up, so it's not touching the bag or anything. That'd be a little gross." [21:03:39] But...what's the point of even putting it in a trash can, then? Why not just give him the food? Or is this just one a those things you gotta do? [21:06:39] It's like from small times, you know? [21:07:03] Back before I lived in town, the only times I got people food was when I pulled it out of the trash. [21:10:50] * Megumi nods slowly. "Well I guess that makes sense." [21:11:18] * Adyen (senranda@bas1-unionville55-1177733809.dsl.bell.ca) has joined #Youkai [21:11:57] I guess it's not so hard for two-legs to understand. [21:14:27] * Kentaro laughs. "Yeah. But hell, you guys are practically walking upright all the time yourselves. Sellouts." He says, without malice. [21:19:00] * Natsuki laughs. [21:25:00] Well, not like anyone my age has lived in the woods since... what, Meiji era? Earlier? [21:27:47] * Kentaro shrugs. "I guess. I probably slept through the history class about when you guys stopped eating frogs and started to get all investment-banker." [21:31:55] Hey, we still do. Parts of them, anyway. And cooked. [21:33:23] I guess it's not really the same, though [21:35:57] * Kentaro nods. "Raw frogs are gross anyways." [21:37:24] Yeah. Anyway... how's the weather situation looking? Think we might see some sun soon? Rain? Both? [21:38:33] I dunno. We spent some time talking to a big creepy teruterubozu yesterday and then the weather went all crazy [21:39:54] How did that go? [21:41:29] Well, if you like rain one minute then sun the next and then hail and then lightning and then blistering heat I'd say it went pretty well [21:42:21] I don't think I like that weather, no. [21:43:59] They were kinda dumb. [21:44:29] MOst kami are. [21:47:10] Lemme guess, it tried to do what you asked it... but right there, on the spot? [21:49:14] Yeah, more or less. [21:49:17] * Megumi suddenly blinks. "Well I did ask if they could give us a big ass storm sometime...oh man, I hope this isn't my fault." [21:49:17] Say. [21:49:52] I wonder if we can get a rope kami, tie it to two teruterubozu kami, and then lead them to the wedding and turn one of them upside down [21:51:15] Maybe... can you find anyone else? Like a yatagarasu? [21:52:55] Hmm. Maybe! Do we have any of those? [21:53:51] Not my area of expertise. [21:54:46] Hmm. [21:55:11] I don't think I've ever met one. I don't even know if they live like people or like weird birds. [21:55:57] Or even just kami floating around... in which case, they'd be invisible to you. [21:58:07] * Kentaro nods [22:02:22] WHere's that other girl? [22:06:41] Who? [22:07:11] Emmy. [22:08:13] I dunno, but at least I can finish lunch without that nerve in my neck pinching up. [22:10:39] * Megumi looks over Kentaro's shoulder. "Oh, hey Emmy." [22:12:47] * Kentaro turns around. "Ugh. Don't even joke about that." [22:13:11] * Megumi snickers.
