Wedding planning is more time-consuming than I had thought. But also fulfilling, in a way. Anemone, we should find you a ring soon, yes? You can pick any one you want.

It has been quiet. The break has been welcome.

... And I am engaged.

[EDIT]

ATTENTION, PURGATORIUM:

I am engaged to the most beautiful girl in the world.

Her name is Anemone, and I am the happiest man in the world because she is going to be my wife.

Father's Day.

... Tch.

Finally, a respite.

Anemone. Would you like to take a walk with me?

Anemone. You will be staying in my room until further notice.

Giovanni, Greed. All I can do is ask you not to argue.

I--

...

I am not completely sure what just happened.

Anemone, I've a present for you. They're on your pillow.

... I hope you like them.

(OOC; Lol remember that shell necklace he helped her make, Brandi? Well, he went out to the beach and found more to make a matching pair of earrings. So now he's all covered in sand and v. v. tired, jsyk~ ♥)

... I failed her. She's dead.

I failed.

Last night at approximately 0000 hours, my ward, Anemone, was assaulted by an unknown male. He tackled her to the ground before proceeding to inject an unknown substance into her body. Immediately afterwards, he fled. The only description of him she can give me is that he was rather larger than her, and strong. Not much to go on, but...

... Since then, her... skin has begun to deteriorate and all of her vitals are... growing weaker. Old wounds are opening and will not stop bleeding.

Any person with information on who this man may be will receive a monetary reward if it is given directly to me.

Thank you for your cooperation.

(OOC; Strikes not there.)

Oh, my back... 

Purgatorium. A rather... appropriate name, for this place.

I have secured work at the Devil's Nest, Anemone. I start tomorrow, I believe.

... I hope that you like your dress.



(OOC; Strikes gone~)

Second Lieutenant Dominic Sorel of the U.F. Force, repor--

...

Anemone? Anemone, where are you? If you’ve locked me in—

... No, wait. That isn’t right. This isn’t— Where is Dewey? Could he have... no, he wouldn’t dare. He’s cruel, but he’s no idiot.

If I’m here, then that means... How long has it been since she—

Anemone? Anemone?!

If you are not a member of apurgatorium, please de-friend this journal.

Thank you.

... Sakura, do you like... animals? That are not blonde and obnoxious?

(OOC; Strike not there. ♥)

Sakura.

I refuse to wear this eyesore of a shirt. It is not only green; it is neon, lime green.

Just because I let you pick out my clothing does not constitute this sort of torture. I would very much like to retain the ability to use my Byakugan.

(OOC; Strike sooo not there. ♥)

Haruno. I need to speak with you.

Now.

(OOC; Neji found out about the Sasori thing. How is anyone's guess, because I'm too lazy to make something up. :D)

Haruno, I have both enrolled in the school here and secured a job at a bar called the Cavite.

Have you found a place for us to live yet?

(OOC; He's taunting Naruto just a bit. ♥)

Ville de Lumière. City of Lights. A fitting name for this place.

I've already come to dislike it.

Haruno, we should find proper lodging soon. This inn will not be sufficient for much longer.

(OOC; Strike not there, because that's just Neji being bitchy. ♥)
