Ugh....

Two days of living like a high-octane action superhero, and now it's back to being plain old Yosuke. Desai giveth... and then just to be a jerk Desai taketh away again, I guess.


.... Ahh well, it's not like I'm walking away totally empty-handed, right?

somebody please, tell me there's an off button for this!!

So, wait.......


So everything we see in "reality" isn't actually "real", it's just a projection of something that is?

And the real image is actually in some cave somewhere??





What the hell?! Then where the hell are we??? Are we in the cave, too?

Ugh will somebody up there please get a handle on the shitty weather we've been having? I get it, rain is important for the ecosphere or whatever, but this is supposed to be summer, you know??



Damn, I don't even have the energy to be properly pissed off.... Even my mood feels sluggish.

[The device picks up accidentally in the middle of a conversation. Yosuke's excited, awestruck chatter comes streaming through the speakers over the droning backdrop of some song he's really into right now. It sounds like he's taken it upon himself to narrate the structure to his companion.]

-- gotta listen to this, I mean seriously listen! I mean, the bassline just purrs like that - do you hear that? - and then BAM, it just like peters off..... into nothing..... like, do you get how profound that is??

Just like ...

[Deep, blissful sigh.]

Whoa. I mean, seriously. Wow. And like, the way Banks's voice comes in like an echo, right here - isn't that just, like.

Isn't it awesome?? And and - wait, just wait for it! This is gonna blow your mi--



Hey, how come you keep checking your watch like tha--

[End recording.]

..... Uh, crap. So I think.... I may be getting written up at work? I mean Yamada TOTALLY had it coming, thinking he could bully me in front of the rest of the staff now that he's no longer answering directly to my dad - and his breath DOES smell like something crawled out of his ass and then into his mouth and died in there!!

But maybe.... declaring it to the entire break-room wasn't the best idea...



Heh, on the plus side, I think I really endeared myself to some of the other part-timers? Masutaka even invited me out to a goukon with some college girls this weekend.... wild. If I had known letting my temper get the best of me in front of the sales floor director would make me popular at work, I might've done it ages ago! .... Err..... well, no probably not.


Man, what the heck's up with me today? First I can't get a reign on my mood, now I'm on overshare mode? Maybe I partied a little too hard this weekend....

It's......... over




I'm.... finished....

EDIT: Party! Our place! 9 pm!! Chase, that means you guys

So uh....... they're letting me out, today...

Thought you guys should probably know, uh.........






Sorry. About freaking out like a tool, I mean. I wasn't exactly in my right mind so.... yeah.



I'm really tired so I'm just going to go home and crash - if we need to have any uh... "talks", well..... I can safely say I'm not going anywhere for a while?

[FORMAT: Voice post]
A-hrm!

[Before he speaks, Yosuke clears his throat. It's less deliberate than accidental - somebody's voice sounds pretty husky today.]

Uh--sorry. So uh, is everybody else having problems with the plantlife around here?? I -- emmhmm! -- thought there was just some hanging vine on the side of --

[cough!]

-- On the side of the building, but I was just taking a--
h- hang---

[cough cough cough!! god, that sounds deep.]

--- [cough!] s'cuse me. I was taking a shower and I swear to god someth-- [cough, cough]

[much more hoarsely:] some--

[you guessed it, more coughing! This one carries on for a little bit, and continues off with a resounding HACK. Now that sounded like it had to hurt.]

-- God, 's it just me or -- [cough, cough!] -- ...stuffy in he[COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, CHOKE]

.... [COUGH] air's all hot I need to--

[he cuts off into a string of uncontrollable, rattling coughs that sound like they're originating from deep in his chest. They start off normal but gradually build into such intensity that at the end of it, he takes a wheezing lungful of air --

-- and promptly launches into another coughing fit. Out of respect for the listener, he turns the mic off.]
[/end voice transmission]


As I was saying if my body would freaking LET ME FINISH, something jumped out at me in the shower. Fought it off, and managed to get whatever it was better than it got me.

Is there anybody who can take a look at this thing...?

It came! It seriously came!!





That's.... kinda freaky.

But hey, who am I to look the gift-horse/porn fairy in the mouth?



Hey Souji, you wanted to see this too, right?
