二 (Voice Post, Japanese)

[onikui_tengu]

Ugh... Stupid idiot...

How did I ever let you convince me that coming to the bar with you was a good idea, Kantarou?

Shinjiro, try to make sure no one makes too much noise for awhile.

... I'm sorry that some of the mixed drinks were straighter than some of the others might have hoped. I didn't ask for this job.

Calm the fuck down. You're doing fine. If you need to go home and rest, do it. I got almost no hangover from last night.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

It's not just that.

...

It's fine. I'd rather stay here than go back to that school. The worst symptoms are over, except for this headache. As long as he is here, it won't clear up any time soon.

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

Huh. Is that so?

Whatever you say. I'm not your god-damned mother after all. If you want to stick it out, do it. But I don't see the big deal about your friend.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Yes, and I wouldn't care to talk about it with you, Shinjiro.

Then I will.

It's complicated. I know him only by obligation, not friendship. There's no use for something like that.

[prodigal-axe.livejournal.com]

That's good to hear.

Obligation? Is that it? Kind of strange, but not so much, if I think it over..

Eh. It won't matter. He's the kind of guy who won't let you get away on an excuse like that. If I get him right.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

...

Yes. In a way.

Hmph. You do. Kantarou may be a brilliant folklorist in his own respect, but he can also be as much of a selfish brat when he needs to be.

[kan_chyan]

It was a good idea, didn't you have any fun at all? Or are you just not used to having a lower tolerance?

Never mind never mind, you know typing would be better on these things, most people don't know Japanese here.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Hm. [He's got him there.]

Typing...?

[kan_chyan]

Don't worry, I'll ask one of those doctors to look you over soon enough.

These things have little buttons on them with letters, if you write out an entry it translates it to other people so they can understand.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Is that really such a good idea?

I see... I'll remember that. Still, Shinjiro and another man that I was speaking to before could understand our language. It would make life easier if I could find out who else does.

[kan_chyan]

A few people speak Japanese, but still the majority use English and to make it so everyone can understand text is best.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Hmph. Just like that priest from before...

All right. I'll remember that for the next time.

[kan_chyan]

Maybe Haruka should learn English? I've been holding classes, you could always join in.

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

I know that you are able to translate if there ever comes a time when I need your help.

Isn't that good enough?

[kan_chyan]

That's not the same thing as directly communicating though.

You just don't want to go to my class!

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

...

You don't feel that you could just teach me how to speak English more directly? Or is it that you won't?

I'm not a child.

[kan_chyan]

If you want private lessons I will gladly give them too you! Quality time with Haruka **

[onikui-haruka.livejournal.com]

Hmph. Do as you like.
