Have a very angry god, just between volumes 17 and 18

[itsallinthebox]

Hmph, foolish outsider do you really think you can play me? Know your place, I am the Head of the Sohmas after all, you would do best not to anger me.

Now, where are all my little pets at? You can't keep them seperated from me for long, after all they are mine and they will always come back to my side, where they belong, that ugly gorgon will never win!

After all, Father said...


(is now shaking with terror over the prospect of being left)

No! Kureno, I need Kureno! Or Shigure, Where is he? Bring that foolish dog to me Mun, I command you! I'm the Master around here, not you! SHIGURE!

...Such a sorrowful sight...

Hi there!

[itsallinthebox]

W-What? Why are you looking at me with those eyes...? DON'T YOU DARE PITY ME, YOU DON'T KNOW ME OUTSIDER!

Hi! Fruits Basket brings back so many memories.

[stuckinajar]

[She shakes her head, but doesn't look away.]

Your eyes... they are so full of sadness... Why?

adjlfkaskjdfaslk I love FB so much! Its too bad the fandom's so small now >.<

[itsallinthebox]

[is a bit taken aback, she's not used to such forwardness from a stranger]

How dare you! You don't know me, so don't go trying to psychoanalyze me with your holier than thou bullshit! I'm in a world someone like YOU can never be apart of!

It was like, my main fandom back in high school, lol

[stuckinajar]

[The outburst earns her little more than a slight cant of the head from the silver-haired woman.]

True... Even if we wish it otherwise, or disguise ourselves, we are outsiders. [Her eyelids droop.]

However, it still saddens me to see such pain.

Nice, did you ever RP any of the characters?

[itsallinthebox]

[Like this woman can ever hope to understand her, she doesn't even deserve her anger]

"Pain, what pain? I'm perfectly happy in the position that I am in. The only "pain" that I have is the fact that my beloved family wishes to escape me, but it is only temporary. They'll learn where their true place is and will come back, they always do in the end. We have a bond that can never be severed!

No, that was way before I ever got into RP. Six or seven years ago. I only watched the anime, though

[stuckinajar]

You are afraid of being abandoned... [Alas, there's nothing Nuregami can do. It pains her to admit it, but she's not the right one to help her through her pain. This pitiable woman said it herself; she is an outsider.]

Aww you should read the manga, its so much better!

[itsallinthebox]

[Ouch, she just hit a sore spot!]

I-I-I'm not! WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT ME ANYWAYS?! DON'T JUDGE ME, YOU HAVE NO RIGHT! I don't have anything to be afraid of because I'll never be abandoned, I was born to be loved and they all love me, they HAVE to!

I might if I ever get through my current backlog.

[stuckinajar]

Forced love...? [She tilts her head.] Do you love them in return?

Re: I might if I ever get through my current backlog.

[itsallinthebox]

Its not forced, its our bond! They'll always love me, no matter what.

[smirks]

Of course I love them, I love all of them and they love me. No matter how hard some "ugly" people try, they'll never take them away.

[stuckinajar]

[Again, she shakes her head, covering her mouth with a sleeve.]

Such a sorrowful sight. [She repeats, closing her eyes. She really does have no place to judge, since she doesn't know all the details, but it strikes her as sad no matter how she looks at it.]

...I will pray for you... for your sadness to lift.

[itsallinthebox]

[Oh, what an ironic twist considering who she is.]

You, pray for me? In that case you would be praying TO me since I happen to God himself.

[stuckinajar]

[Nuregami stares blankly at her, this revelation invoking little reaction.]

There are many gods. Many Kami.

No... I will pray to Amaterasu... Origin of all that is good, and Mother to us all. If my prayer reaches her ears, I am certain she will help you.

[Calling yourself a 'god' to a Shinto deity doesn't mean much, Akito.]

[itsallinthebox]

[To her she is the only "God" she knows, she's not that educated with the outside world and other religions mean nothing to her.]

None as important or as special as me I imagine, after all none have a bond that is ever-lasting. Don't bother praying for me, I don't need it!

[godsbestfriend]

[You know, calling Tohru a Gorgon is about as factual as a snail that is fast-paced.

If the reference to the mythological creature amuses him, the tell-tale signs of a smile disappear as quickly as the word "Kureno" leaves her mouth. The darkness that momentarily creeps into his eyes only lasts a moment. One might think it was a trick of the light, especially when his mouth opens to release words of jest.]

If it's a foolish dog you're looking for, you might find Galton's whistle to be more effective.

[notafruit]

[... Oh Akito. This- is she all right? Unwelcome barely begins to describe Tohru's presence, most likely. The family god made it clear how he felt about her. But she can't not notice how distressed he is.]

Akito-san... Are, are you all right?

/Just slips in here too if its okay? ;;

[notafruit]

[Tohru's just going to stand off in the corner looking concerned. Shigure, maybe baiting Akito right now isn't really a good idea! He seems upset, and it would be bad if you were to get in trouble too.

FRET FRET FRET :( ]

[godsbestfriend]

[And would you look at that. Speak of the Gorgon and she doth appear!]

Well if it isn't Tohru-kun~! [As anxious and as adorably considerate as ever.] Turn anyone to stone lately?

[notafruit]

H-Huh? Shigure-san...

[Stone? Does that mean that she was supposed to be the.... AH! More importantly - !]

Umm, just now things seem really tense...

[godsbestfriend]

You don't say. [Come now, Tohru. You should be used to these melodramatic outbursts by now~]

I was just thinking the same thing. [He stretches an arm over his head and pulls on it as if he is trying to release some invisible strain in the back of his neck.] Tense indeed~ If only there was someone kind enough to give me a back rub. preferably a cute high school girl.

[notafruit]

[Door repairs and an angry god are two very different things! She's still quite obviously worried about Akito for a variety of different reasons! But spares Shigure a fair moment of worry, too, despite being distracted with the former.]

If your back is hurting very much, I can place a call to Hatori-san...

1/2

[godsbestfriend]

[Not quite the offer he was hoping for, but the consideration is much appreciated, dearest Tohru...]

[godsbestfriend]

Ha-san really isn't the massaging type. [He'd sooner stick him with a needle than provide any sort of consolation to alleviate the pain.]

What about you, Tohru? How have you been as of late?

[notafruit]

[Ahh... S-Smile]

I've been okay. Um... you know, just working. My mun has me in a very high energy setting. I'm working a couple [four] jobs, so I'm always busy.

[godsbestfriend]

Oh~? [If it's Tohru, then he wouldn't be surprised if the number of jobs is more than she can count on her hand.]

Is room and board so expensive? Surely one occupation should suffice.
