Ryou!

[damagedviolin]

Ryou's birthday is coming up soon (2 days!) and I already have his gift all bought and wrapped. I hope he'll like it! He and Munehiro have been so kind to me lately, I know I could never actually pay that back, but hopefully I can at least help him have a nice birthday. I can babysit if you two want to go on a nice date, you know!

As for me...well, I still have days where I'm really down. But I also have days I feel really good. I still think about Rei a lot, but I don't think that is going to stop any time soon. And I've come to terms with that. I just have to be optimistic. And stay near people. I know it seems like I'm taking advantage of my friends by staying with them, but I know my limits...and I know it's just bad for me to be alone. I'm happier now. I really shouldn't have been so hard-headed to begin with.

Aw, thanks, Choutarou! And who knows, we might take you up on that offer, we'll have to see. You're not taking advantage of anyone by sticking close, you know. You're more than just a friend. You're family. ^_^

Usu. You are indeed family. And I'm sure Arashi and Daichi would love to play with you and Chopin.

[damagedviolin]

I know. I have the best family!

[damagedviolin]

I love you all so much.

[gekidazejanai]

Damn right you do! We're awesome.

Ah, Choutarou! I am sorry that I have been too busy of late to spend any time with you...that does it. I'm hiring another PA. Four just do not cut it anymore!

How would that delightful dog of yours and you like to join me for a late season picnic? I have acres on which he can run while you and I laze about on a blanket eating favorite things from our youth.

[damagedviolin]

It's okay, Atobe-san! You're a busy man!

A picnic? That sounds lovely.

[atoberex]

Excellent!

I...hope to have plans on Saturday, but how does Sunday sound? Would you like it to just be us, or would you like more company? Feel free to invite someone if so.

[damagedviolin]

Hope to have plans...?

I don't know. If anyone is available, they are more than welcome.

[atoberex]

Well, Saturday is my birthday. I had invited a friend out to dinner and now he's accepted.

Excellent. Then perhaps the Kabajis? Maybe Jirou as well?

[damagedviolin]

Sounds great!

[ooc: Shall we now all post about how much fun and how laid back it was? Dogs gamboling about, children playing, sun shining (but with lots of shade available), lawn bowling and crochet for the adults, perhaps, lots of excellent food!]
