...uh...that's not something Kyou would say!

Stop obsessing about Tohru!

Why isn't he constantly wanting to fight Yuki?



Poor Kyou, throwing him into Poly has been quite the adventure for him, especially from where I pulled him in the manga. Let's start a little with that. If you're an anime watcher, the Kyou you remember is stubborn, stand-offish, hot-tempered, contantly fighting with Yuki and isn't always the nicest person to everyone, including Tohru. Don't get me wrong, old habits are hard to break but the Kyou that was pulled here is not the Kyou from the anime. In fact after the anime ended, the real Kyou Sohma emerged in the manga.



So...exactly what Kyou is in Poly?



( There Be Spoilers Here! )
So...there are some issues to think about.

I'm totally open to Crit on all of my characters, I'm used to being ripped to shreds and don't mind it. Really.

I believe comments are screened (if I did it right) but anonymous comments are allowed and I think IP is on...I'll turn it off if I can figure it out.

Thanks

I'd prefer if the temple was covered with people, that they at least stick to the sidewalks.

And at least ten feet away from anyone that lives here.

I'm sure Tohru will want to make sure each of you are warm and comfortable. Just...stay outside.

[ooc:Hit him with anything. I'll be around for a little bit before needing to leave for soccer game. Then I'll be back.]

[Voice]

Is this thing even on? Damn it! I can never figure this stupid thing out! TEXT! TEXT!! TEXT YOU STUPID THING!

[The distinct sound of something being hit. Several times.]

[Now suddenly Video!!]

What? NO! I didn't say! NO!! Why is this thing so STUPID?

[And yes, there is a very irritated looking Kyou staring back at you entirely WAY too close to the camera.]

Has anyone seen Tohru today? Long brown hair. Brown eyes. Always stupidly smiling at everyone like an idiot? I haven't seen her all day.

The leaves of the trees in Xanadu are really changing colors right now. Everything is surrounded by red, orange and yellow, this has always been my favorite time of year. Nature always puts on it's own show and if you haven't been out to visit either the Temple or Hot Springs, now is the perfect time to do so. Both of the facilities are very open and have been decorated for the season, plus the nature display only adds to the environment of each of them. I highly recommend coming out if you haven't visited before. Even just taking a walk in Xanadu is calming surrounded by the changing of the seasons.

Also...the shelter has a large abundance of cats right now. And we obtained a snake...if you like those sort of things.

[OOC:What's with LJ lately? It posted nothing and I had to rewrite the whole post. ;_;]

[Voice]

WHAT THE FUCK?

W-WHA??

AH! Someone...I've been...NO! Don't come near me you damned pedo!

Listen woman! They won't CARE! You picked the wrong Sohma to kidnap.They won't pay a ransom for me!

STAY AWAY! My Shishou knows Karate and has been teaching me! I'm not afraid to use it! I can already break a board so get it through your stupid head that I'm leaving right now or that board will be your face!

WHERE ARE MY CLOTHES!

[ooc:Shortest honeymoon ever?? ahahaha Poor Tohru...]

[Video]
[And here's Kyou still dressed in his martial arts uniform that he worked out in this morning. If you have spoken with him today you may notice he's a little 'off'. That would be be because he's cursed and since he isn't wearing some ugly lederhosen he's is thirsty enough to be drinking the beer. Drunk? Not so much. Happily tipsy? Yes...and he's enjoying his view.And allowing everyone else to see how cursed his girlfriend is today as well. Thankfully one of them is sober.]

The German barmaid look is good on her. Everyone agrees with me right?

[Kyou fingers one of the braids in her hair that she'd pulled into little loops on her head, strangely affectionate for having an audience. Maybe he's forgotten you all already.]

I think we should go get married.

Today.

( OOC )

MIDNIGHT AND NOT EVEN A SECOND EARLY!

Bastards...I hate days like today...

Tohru? WHERE ARE YOU?

The signs of that guy leaving are finally slowing down. Back to only having four of us here. Tohru, Hatori, Haru and I...

That being said, if anyone really had their hearts set on one of the dogs from the shelter...I'd get one quickly. They aren't coming in as fast as they used to. I don't know how long any of them will last before they are gone.

If the animal you adopt has ink stains though...I'm sorry. Someone found themselves a little cursed yesterday. She's been trying to clean off everything she claimed yesterday. I'm sorry I wasn't any help in stopping her. She was just so cute, I think I just made things worse by encouraging her. Not only the animals, we might need to repaint a few things. Some of our employees and friends might have gotten caught in her crossfire too.

Uta, I'm sorry I didn't stop her with the clothes. I saw them before she left but...[chuckles] she really wanted to help you. Just wanted to make sure they were returned to her, I guess. Good thing she didn't do laundry yesterday or there would be a lot of ruined clothes today.

I really hope this doesn't come out of my shirt though. Somehow I find being labeled 'I, Tohru Honda respectably claim Kyou-kun as my boyfriend' extremely entertaining. I did manage to keep her occupied for most of the day though. And today too as she keeps trying to wash it all off.

So I just realized tonight that I've been here exactly a year. A whole year straight. Never even being sent home for even a moment. It's strange to think about. I've seen family members come and go and come back again. Shigure and Hatori are here...again. Just like they were when I arrived. Tohru's came and went a couple of times. Haru. Haru's been here even longer than me and I don't think he's gone home ever.

The thing is, unlike most people I don't really mind it here. Sure, the curses can be annoying but they haven't been much more than just disruptive. Over the course of this year I've sort of settled into a life here that I really enjoy. It hasn't been great or anything but really...it feels sort of like home these days.

Though I don't really think that's exactly because of the Temple as much as who all is there.

I guess I'm just curious on what sort of thing I should do for this kind of a milestone. It feels wrong to just let it pass by...

I said LEAVE ME ALONE! I don't want to play! 

STOP THAT! I'm NOT playing!

Why does everyone think throwing water at me is so funny? Aren't you here to help?

That's not what the hot springs are for! Get out! I'm supposed to be cleaning this thing and you guys aren't helping things!

Did you make reservations?

HEY! ANSWER ME!

Don't make come in there and force you to get out! Really...I don't want to get in the water...

This is that weird curse day again isn't it?

STOP TRYING TO SPLASH ME! DAMN IT!

[OOC:Doubles, Canon family/friends and just breaking his 4th wall is fine. <3 Spam away with anything you wish.]

...something about this seems vaguely familiar. I think I've experienced something like this before. I don't think I really got the concept then either...

Something about a Pokeball? That's all I remember. I look a little different this time...I'm not exactly myself but it looks like me...strange.

[ooc: Kyou's first curse I made him a pokemon XD Fun times! I had to do it again with Mewtwo.]

[Have an annoyed looking Kyou surrounded by cats.]

I'm so SICK of this! All day! Meow! Meow! SHUT THEM UP! Who the hell had the bright idea to open a shelter at the Temple? This is the stupidest idea I've ever heard. Who the hell is going to want to adopt a CAT?

[One daring kitty climbs on his lap and bats at his orange hair.]

GET OFF OF ME!

...I think we Tohru has about fifteen cats here needing adopted out. So if anyone is in need of one to keep them company, come inquire at The Temple.

We have had a rash of cats coming in lately that aren't in the greatest of condition. Covered in fleas, ticks and other filth. We've managed to keep them contained to a separate room so I don't think any of the cats we've had here for awhile have been infected. We've been working hard on getting them cleaned up and I think they are now.

I'm wondering how long this little pet project can remain just a project...

[OOC:Here have some fleas...ticks...and anything else for the upcoming plot.]

Well...yesterday was interesting. Not bad...just...interesting.

For the record, I am not a kidnapper. I don't have the habit of tying up people. I'm not into...into...b...bon...THAT.

Anyway, what's with all the obsession with cats and cat ears. That was just...weird. As a general announcement, please don't act and speak with a cat like that if you don't intend on making it a permanent commitment.

And that's enough of that. Something like that shouldn't have to even be SAID.

...This is why I hate rain...

[ooc:lol feel free to tell him it's not raining]

[Voice Post]

There is a long period of near perfect silence, only the sound of something boiling can be heard. This is soon followed by the telltale sizzle of liquid hitting the burners.

Uh...Tohru? Is something burning?

Silence

Tohru? Tohru! It's boiling over! What are you thinking?

The click of the stove being turned off and pots moving around.

I thought you were just running to the pantry to get more rice? Why would you leave the stove on?

Tohru?

Tohru? Where are you?

Don't tell me you ran to the store or something, forgetting to shut off everyth--

Without...

Your...

...

...

Shoes?

[ooc:And the panic ensues with Tohru gone...poor kitty...]

Even this stupid curse couldn't ruin my mood today.

Haru, Isuzu, Tohru and I. Kind of a weird foursome to be left here in the city. At least...of the ones that aren't here due to the curse today.

Hell, even talking to that damned Yuki wouldn't be bad today.

 

Tohru...that conversation I keep saying we need to have? Apparently 'curse-san' has decided it's time.

Honestly I'm surprised I've been here for 8 months and this is the first time this has come out. I'm sorry
