My Top Posts in 2022:

tagged by the ever iconic @hxh, thank you bestie :3c

rules: tag people you would like to know/catch up with

Last song 🎵 : Nothing Else Matters (Metallica Cover) by Phoebe Bridgers (I, of course, love the original as well but this is just gorgeous)

Last movie 🎬 : Everything Everywhere All at Once (if you have mother issues™, do not watch this until you are mentally and emotionally prepared. I'm fucked up. and will be so until the foreseeable future.) [thanks @wantnothing and @halflove 🙄]

Last book 📖 : hmmm.. I'm of the opinion that manga definitely counts, so like. technically Vol 14 of jjk, if we're talking physical. or like, the neat lil booklet that comes with my tarot deck 😅

okiieee I'm gonna tag @wantnothing and @halflove, if they wanna do it. since they have helped emotionally damage me 💀

I'll also tag @watermelon-mafia, @caprisun-overlord, @rabooots, @croakings, @queen-alluka, and @queen-eevee (woah that's two royalty in my mutual circle, love to see it ajfjsjfn)

y'all have a good day, and ily 💙😘

hi yes hello it's me again. so I'm working on my dream of the endless™~ playlist.. and I was looking through this BROODS album that I liked a lot and... just. just look at this.

uugghh Dream just being so overwhelmed after everything and going to Hob.. and Hob's just. Over the moon that Dream feels safe enough with him for comfort.. the bridge is especially destroying me cause like - of course Dream would beat himself up abt needing comfort in the first place and he can't stop thinking abt all that needs to be done and- AAHHH Hob just gently pulling him out of all that, if just for a moment...

I love fics with this premise and now I have a SONG to go with them???? I'm in shambles.

here's the song btw :

BROODS - Bedroom Door

My #1 post of 2022

It appears the last two (2)….times I’ve tried creating this post, tumblr thought I was too wordy, so I’m going to attempt to get in and get out before it eats itself again

this playlist (a Dream of the Endless™ character examination via my silly brain and sad ass music) took me entirely too long and I'm going to throw my laptop out of the window if I have to look at it any longer so pls pls take it and I hope that if you listen or even read the lyrics that you find something new, or hear something you like.

This absolutely would not have ever seen the light of tunglr.hell if not for the beautiful souls of the Sandman fandom, and a few of my new friends and mutuals. So special internet cookies and hugs to these inspirational, encouraging, and beyond talented individuals; @wordsinhaled , @weirdfishy , @wizardofgoodfortune , and @xx-vergil-xx - i love y'all dearly and I hope this is even HALF of what you would have expected, or a quarter of the amazing content y'all have bestowed upon my lil eyeballs. Now Onward! to words that personally injure me!

Florence + The Machine -Too Much Is Never Enough

And the crown, it weighs heavy

'Til it's banging on my eyelids

Retreating in covers and closing the curtains

One thing's for certain, oh

A year like this passes so strangely

Somewhere between sorrow and bliss

~I first encountered this song in it's source material FFXV, and there it destroyed me. Now, wearing my dumb lil blorbo glasses yet again, it is back with vengeance..goth royalty sad wet cat flavored (gross), vengeance. "too much is never enough" .... oh sweeties...

Oh, who decides from where up high?

I couldn't say "I need more time"

Oh, grant that I can stay the night

Or one more day inside this life

VIRA - God Complex

God, I could try

To be the one

I'll tear down the sky

What do you want?

I'll do it all for life

My love, my alibi

Tonight, tonight

I'll try to do it for you

~pretty sure this is the angriest sounding song on this thing? but it is fitting.. and desperate.. and wanting and... painful. when she grits out 'try' and 'sky' the way she does.. god the emotion. this just brought to mind Dream and falling for someone hard enough to the point of destructive devotion...

I'm gonna be where you are

Doesn't matter how far

Because we are meant to be

I'm gonna be what you need

Darling, please worship me

Unless you prefer to plead

AJJ - Body Terror Song

~ I love seeing people explore the idea of Dream just...not vibing with being fully corporeal. At least not in the way he is while in the Waking.. what a mood, and especially after the fishbowl...whew.

It will betray you

Be used against you

Then it will fail on you, my dear

But before that, you'll be a doormat

For every vicious narcissist in the world

Oh, how they'll screw you all up and over

Then feed you silence for dessert

Philip Wesley - Lamentations of the Heart

[Instrumental~]

~I wanted to include a few instrumental tracks in here and this one felt apt because I used to fall asleep to this album all the time. Like it was one of the only ones I could fall asleep to with any certainty. The feeling and title for this one tho struck me with Dream specifically so I went with it. The rest of the album is so nice though, highly rec.

Iris Lune - Paper Mache

~ this song!! it sounds so so ethereal and her voice is GORGEOUS but the lyrics!! have mercy the lyrics! big ole owwie! "save me from myself" , "make me believe that I can change, make me believe that I'm not strange" hhhh (also if y'all couldn't tell, this will be dreamling flavored, I think I'll tag them too jic but. yes...)

Save me from myself

I've been in the dark too long

Paper mache love

Make me believe that I can change

Make me believe that I'm not strange

At all

Penny and Sparrow - A Kind of Hunger

tremble, recognize the distance

Go try and murder every preference

I’ll keep hangin' ‘round for reference

come care about me

~this is... such a heavy song. hadn't heard it before starting this playlist but found it and immediately had to add it.. just. come care about me. changing, watching you with wonder. Dying is just a kind of hunger. that line specifically. -lays on the floor for 3hrs-

changing, watching you with wonder

you’re less and getting even younger

dying is just a kind of hunger

come care about Me

Carly Rae Jepsen - Gimme Love

~originally was gonna be a joke song to lighten the mood but haha! nope! I mean it is lighthearted but it still absolutely, in my mind, fits Morpheus. beautiful babygirl of the endless...smooch

Gimmie love (Oh)

It's the way we are together (Oh)

Wanna feel like this forever, forever (Oh)

It's the way we are together

And I never thought I'd ever say forever

Jon Bellion - Stupid Deep (Acoustic)

~this song fucks me up! 😀 for real though, I highly suggest watching the acoustic performance of this that he has on youtube cause the vibe is so.. intimate and dreamy and gorgeous.. and the lyrics.. jon bellion, sir.. smh.. the ending..

What if who I hoped to be was always me?

And the love I fought to feel was always free?

What if all the things I've done

Were just attempts at earning love? Yeah

'Cause the hole inside my heart is stupid deep, oh, stupid deep

D.Gray-Man Vol.26: Komui’s Lounge (Extended) 5/5 (FINALLY!)

>> Part 1 <<

>> Part 2 <<

>> Part 3 <<

>> Part 4 <<

Question 27: Please tell me Branch Supervisor Bak’s favourite food/drink.

Bak: Ever since I was a kid I’ve loved Grandfather Zu’s herbal rice gruel, but since he’s passed away, looks like I won’t be able to eat it anymore, huh.

Marie: Ah, I remember that. It sure was delicious

Lavi: Head Chef Jeryy is Master Zu’s apprentice, isn’t he? Even his gruel won’t do?

Bak: Hmmm. It tastes just the same and it’s delicious alright but...I don’t know. Unless Grandpa made it, it just won’t.

Link: I feel like I kind of understand what you mean.

Wisely: How come?

Allen: Every once in a while...a very, very looooong while, mindー I also feel like eating Master’s super-salty stew, too. Jeryy-san’s stew tastes a dozen times better, though.

(T/N: dwaaaaaaaaaaw. Allen loves his Papa Cross anyway!)

Question 28: Since Kanda was born in the Asian Branch, is his first language Chinese? Or is it English?

Marie: Kanda was speaking English the first time we met him, wasn’t he, Branch Supervisor?

Bak: Yeah, he was. I’d reckon as an Exorcist, they taught him English back in the lab so he’d be able to be assigned to Headquarters right away. But I guess there are times the scientists communicate in Chinese when among themselves, anyway. Kanda can understand Chinese as well, from the looks of it.

Marie: Kanda virtually mastered Chinese while we were travelling with Master Tiedoll before we came to Headquarters, you know.

Lavi: Sometimes he’s talking with Lenalee or Komui in Chinese, too, isn’t he?

Allen: You know that, Lavi?

Lavi: Yup. Of course I would’ve mastered the language of pretty much every country I went for my logs.

Marie: I guess it was thanks to speaking the same language that the traumatized young Lenalee warmed up to Kanda straight away, huh.

Question 29: Lavi’s scarf looks so cool. Did it ever get stuck in something and strangled him?

Lavi: Well, there are countless times I nearly suffocated, but not because it got stuck or anything; Allen and Lenalee and Yuーand as of recently even Timothy’s taken to yanking it.

Allen: Well, because you look like you want it yanked.

Lavi: What the heck does that even mean, oi!?

Wisely: I feel you, boy. People often yank my turban as well.

Bak: Fō is always yanking my beret’s tassel, too.

Link: And Walker my braid...

Question 30: If the D.Gray-Man characters were to have real-life jobs, what would they be?

Link: I say we wrap it up with this question.

Allen: Roger, roger! I’ll run a restaurant with Jeryy-san and Link!

Link: WHAT!? Don’t just decide for me! I’m going to be the Inspector’s secretary!

Allen: No way! You’re going to cook the sweets I invent, Link. I’ll take care of the finances.

Wisely: That'd be awesome~ I’d be your customer~~

Bak: Hmmmmm. I’d like more time to think...really. I’d be an engineer, I guess? What about you, Marie?

Marie: If possible, I’d love to be a musician.

Allen: Please come perform at my restaurant, Marie!

Marie: Haha. Nice idea. Let’s have it that way. Thanks, Allen.

Wisely: And you, Bookman Jr. ?

Lavi: Hmmmmm. I can’t think of anything I want to be other than a Bookman, I guess.

Allen: It’s just what if, Lavi. What if.

Lavi: I know what the others would be, though. Yu would be some kind of craftsman, right? Lenalee would practice medicine, to heal people. Krorykins would be a horticulturist. Miranda would be an embroidery artist or doll maker. Chaozii would definitely work on a ship, and Timothy would run an orphanage with Emilia, right?

Allen: What about Komui-san and everyone in the Science Division?

Lavi: Probably not much different from what they’re doing right now anyway? Look at the Branch Supervisor.

Bak: M-my bad. I just love this job.

Lavi: Ha! Same here!

Allen: Everyone’s got pretty cool answers. I’m beginning to regret mine. Let’s do our best with our restaurant, Link!

Link: Told you, I’m not doing it!

Question 31: How does everyone in the Order procure casual clothes?

Link: I thought I said we’re wrapping up...!

Lavi: The Order has large separate wardrobes (a room for storing clothes) for men and women, and we can take whatever clothes or shoes we want from there.

Marie: A great number of resident tailors and dressmakers are stationed there, so you can get order-made clothes, too. It’s a popular destination in the Order.

Allen: I’d say nothing beats getting free clothes!

Link: Please bear in mind that it’s all funded by Central.

Lavi: By the way, Krorykins is the workers’ favorite client, though. He’s tall for one thing, and he’s got great style. Makes them want to design clothes for him, they said. Tch! I’ve got great style too, you know.

Allen: Must be nice being tall...

Bak: Height isn’t everything...Men are measured by the strength of their character...! (grinds teeth)

Wisely: Must be nice getting to wear whatever you want. On my days off, I don’t get to wear anything other than clothes Desires chose for me, and it’s stressing me out.

Lavi: Eeeehh!? What the heck!

Link: Now that you say so, we also received a number of questions pertaining to the Noahs’ wardrobe. Let’s see...Did the Earl make the Noahs’ white costumes himself? How much effort does it take grooming Tyki Mikk into his glamorous persona in high society?...Et cetera. Let’s get this over with right away, shall we.

Allen: Those particularly revealing white costumes, eh?

Wisely: Maitora the 13th Disciple made those for us. They may look that way, I grant you, but they’ve got high defensive stats, mind. That it came out a teeny bit sexy is down to Maitora’s taste.

Allen: Maitora...? Never knew him.

Wisely: He’s one extreme case of stranger anxiety, so he rarely ventures outside, that one. He shuts himself up in his dark, gloomy workspace in the Ark with mice as his friends. On a side note, my best friend is Gamako the Frog.

Link: We don’t need unnecessary information here.

Lavi: Say, dontcha think the Noahs have too strong individuality?

Allen: Can’t expect us to remember them all, can you; springing them on us all at once like that. Introduce yourselves one by one, would you?

Wisely: You tell that to the author, not me.

Lavi: By the way, that Feedler guy? Why is he always ending his sentences with Buu? It’s really driving me nuts.

Wisely: You shall not touch on that subject...! The author is ordering you to stop!

Allen, Lavi: Huh, what’s that? Tell us, tell us!

Wisely: I must not...! I must not say that Hoshino couldn’t stop herself and tried letting him say buu-buu, and as a result all tension build-up in scenes with Feedler is totally blown away and it’s probably all said and done anyway but she’s still beating herself up like ahhh I messed up so bad..and the like.

Allen: How come she didn’t see that coming?

Lavi: Hoshino’s such an idiot.

Wisely: But she really loves Feedler, from the looks of it.

Link: How about we leave the idle chat there and get back to Tyki Mikk?

Wisely, Allen, Lavi: ..................

Wisely: Wh-what’s going on here? (sweatdrop) He seems clearly annoyed to me...(whispering)

Allen: He’s totally giving us the eyeballs, too. (whispering)

Lavi: That’d be the word count, ain’t it? Should be getting pretty tight by now, right? (whispering)

Allen: Man, it really is a drag this time. (whispering)

Link: Answers!

Wisely: (jolt) Th-the Millennium Count took care of that. From the time Tikky became a Noah as a young lad, the Count taught him social etiquette and conduct in high society.

Allen: But the man said it himself that he wasn’t educated, didn’t he?

Wisely: Tikky hated school and never went to one, from the looks of it. That might have been it. Nevertheless, Tikky isn’t an idiot like Yu Kanda.

Marie: Oi! Kanda’s not an idiot. Now who was it spreading this stuff about Kanda being an idiot?

Lavi: Well, Allen calls him Ba-Kanda.

(T/N: It’s probably common knowledge by now, but just in case, baka in Japanese means “idiot, stupid”. Often hurled at male protagonists in manga by irritated female love interests. Allen created the portmanteau Ba-Kanda (Kan-dolt?) to retaliate for Kanda calling him Baka-Moyashi (Idiotic Beansprout))

Allen: Lavi, there’s something on your ear.

Lavi: Ow-ow-ow-ow-owーthat’s my earring! Allen-san, that’s my earring!

Wisely: Ow! The pain! Just the sight is painful!

Link: Argh! Good grief, are you doing this on purpose!? How many times do I have to tell you, NO-WASTING-PRECIOUS-WORD COUNT!!

Allen: Crap! The feathers!!

Lavi: Cheater! Projectiles ain’t fair!

Wisely: Whoa-uh-oh.

Link: STAY RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE, OI!! I SEE YOU NEED A GOOD LECTURE ON HOW MUCH PAIN YOU’RE CAUSING THE EDITOR AND DESIGNER WITH ALL THE WORD COUNT YOU’RE WASTING!!

Bak: Whoa, gone before you know it. Well, we’re no match for the explosive power of youngsters, I guess.

Marie: We’re both zonked out here, eh, Supervisor?

Bak: Yeah. This discussion section is extended, after all. Twice longer than usual in terms of pages. Come have a sip of Wong’s tea before you go, would you, Marie?

Marie: That sounds great.

Bak: Thank you for sending us plenty of questions, as ever. Starting next time, it’s gonna be “Bak’s Lounge” instead of “Komui’s Lounge”, so make sure to keep flooding us with questions! (sheeeen ☆)

Allen, Lavi, Wisely: AAAAAAAAAAAARRRGH!

Marie: Oh. Sounds like those three have been rounded up...

*******************

T/N: Aaaaaaand that’s all of it (sob). Thank you so much for enjoying my translation, DGMers! I really appreciate your kind words of encouragement and lively discussion on the countless bomb-drops in this lounge! See you again on Monday, April 22nd when the new chapter releases! As always, I’ll be working with the awesome @kougeki-scans to bring you the translation as soon as possible!

Thank you! Jeida out!

D.Gray-Man Vol.26: Komui’s Lounge (Extended) 1/5

Featuring: Marie, Bak, Lavi, Wisely, Allen, Link

(T/N: We got 31 questions this time. It really is extended! I’ve broken it up into five parts for convenience of translating and scrolling.

Let’s start with the onslaught of the usual Kanda questions...)

Lavi: G’afternoon y’all! As always, welcome to the Komui’s-Lounge-where-Komui-doesn’t-show-up-again-this-time! And first up is...ME~~! (Pull crackers)

Link: Keep it down, Bookman Jr.

Bak: And now, the time is ripe. At long last, my debut has come! And I made it on the page before Komui, too! MUHAHAHAHAHA!!

Marie: I’m not very good at this kind of thing...but I’ll do my best.

Wisely: And here comes the Noah of the Demon Eye, Wisely~~!! Back for his second session! (Holds up two victory signs).

Allen: Wait a moment. There seems to be two deceased among us?

Lavi: Hey, I’m not even confirmed deceased yet!!!

Allen: Nobody’s saying it’s you, Lavi. Well, it’s actually you, anyway.

Lavi: Allen, you were just calling for me back in Vol.24′s lounge, didn’t you? What’s with all this darkness right from the get-go, meanie!?

Allen: I haven’t been able to eat at all, and I’m irritated.

Link: (lays a hand on Allen’s shoulder) Just forget about everything in the main narrative for now, Walker. The freshness of this discussion lounge is fading quick, and now the author’s already using trial and error.

Allen: Reckless move on the author’s part.

Wisely: Even so, it seems the author didn’t intend to bring out Bookman Jr. at first, though. Just that there was a truly unsolvable issue...

Lavi: Damn you, Hoshino...But yes, that’s what happened! The thing is, this time the most questions are directed at me! The fans are calling out to me! I heard their voices! How can I not be here for them! (heart)

Allen: Even though I can answer questions about you just fine.

Lavi: With messed-up answers, more like.

Link: Walker, here are some doughnuts, so would you cheer up already? And you, Bookman Jr, don’t get too carried away. We went over the word-count limit last two times, and both the editor and designer sent an e-mail to warn us to stay within the limit this time. All pointless talk is prohibited from all of you!

Allen, Lavi, Wisely: Roger~~

Marie: Haha...(wry grin) Having the Inspector here really is a help.

Bak: Oi, haven’t you lot been forgetting about me from the start......!?

Question 1: Kanda had a little pouch hanging from his neck when he returned to Marie and Lenalee. What was in that pouch?

Allen: You can always count on a question for Kanda, huh.

Lavi: Yeah, ain’t Yu gettin’ a little too popular? By the way, ain’t this supposed to start off with a question for me?

Wisely: Well, it’s because there’s also a wagonload of questions for Yu Kanda as ever. What a sinful lad...

Link: You there! No pointless chatter!

Bak: Huh...? He had a pouch? We disposed of those clothes Kanda was wearing after he swapped it in for the Order uniform at the Asian Branch, but there wasn’t any pouch.

Marie: Ah, that’s because I’m keeping it for him. The little drawstring pouch, right? Seems to be silver coins in there.

Allen: Money?!!! (clatter)

Lavi: Calm down, Allen!

Marie: There was this old lady who took care of Kanda’s every need back then, and she gave it to him, said it’s for travel expenses....sorry, that’s all I know.

Lavi: ........That so?

Allen: Kanda will definitely turn out like Master someday. (hmph!)

Marie: Looks like he barely used any of it, though.

(T/N: aight guys, now we know the true reason Allen decided to tag along with Kanda, right? right?)

Question 2: Is Kanda right-handed or left-handed?

Lavi: Yu agaaain?

Link: He’s ambidextrous, isn’t he?

Allen: Eh? Is that so?

Link: It’s something you’d notice right away.

Lavi: After all the time you spent fighting with him and you still didn’t know, Allen? Yu’s punches hurt like freakin’ hell no matter which fist he used, right?

Allen: Makes me sick just thinking about it.

Marie: Exactly, Kanda’s ambidextrous.

Bak: By the way, Alma was also ambidextrous, you know.

(T/N: damn, that stab in the heart when I have to go back and correct is into was...)

Wisely: By the way, over to the Noahs, the Millennium Count is ambidextrous.

Question 3: After the Second Exorcist sigil’s power deteriorated, Kanda now has hangover. Will he also be more vulnerable to illnesses like the cold?

Lavi: Yu again...? Now I’m starting to think Hoshino is trolling behind this!

Allen: He’s an idiot, and idiots don’t catch colds! NEXT!

Wisely: Well, if he does catch colds more easily then it’s good news for us Noahs. But if he’s such an idiot, guess it can’t be helped.

Marie: Hey, watch it. (sweat)

Link: Stop fooling about and answer properly!

Bak: Allow me, current patriarch of the Chang clan, to enlighten you. Just because the sigil’s power has weakened, doesn’t mean Kanda’s body will become very weak as a result. Though his extraordinary regenerative ability will be impaired, the bodies of Second Exorcists are also designed for battle, so he’d probably still be far more sturdy than normal people. Even so, unless he keeps a balanced diet from now on, there’s a possibility he might fall ill. He eats nothing but soba, doesn’t he? That won’t do!

Question 4: Those...flying needles?...that Howard Link was throwing about? What are they for? The Crows have had them in the past too, and I’m curious.

Link: Those are called Shibari (嘴針 lit. Beak Needle. T/N: “shibari” also sounds the same as “Shibari-bane”, the Crow’s binding feathers, but uses a different Kanji). Even amongst Crows, it’s a weapon reserved for the elite members. A single needle can unleash power equal to a hundred feathers (those binding feathers, flame feathers, confining feathers, etc. that Crows frequently use). The Shibari I have are the ones Master Zu used back in the day, so they’re an old model, but even now they still work very well. Though they can be a little unwieldy to carry about, in times you run out of feathers you can still fight just using Shibari. And for me right now, in particular, it’s also a way to save up on feathers, so it’s a very handy weapon.

Allen: Huh? What do you mean by “for me right now”?

Link: I have chocolate doughnuts, too, Walker.

Allen: WEE-HEE! (chomp!)

Wisely: Careful, boy...he’s tricking you with those doughnuts...

Link: Would you like some, too?

Wisely: WEE-HEE! (chomp!)

Lavi: I heard from Gramps, though. Looks like the Crows’ abilities are developed by the Chang Clan, right?

Bak: Aha. The Crow Unit was established by Grandfather Zu in his younger days. Even now, the Chang Clan is still responsible for manufacturing all the feathers, needles and other weapons the Crows use.

Marie: I see. So this is why the Asian Branch Supervisor position is passed down the Chang bloodline. The Chang Clan must have been indispensable for the Central, right?

Bak: Well, I guess.

Allen: I’ve been wondering for a long time. Why are the Changs able to use such awesome magic?

Wisely: It will be a long story, so we’d better drop it for the sake of the word count.

Link: If it’s going to eat up precious space, then let’s leave it for now.

Question 5: Do Lavi and Bookman still remember their original names?

Lavi: YAAAAAAAAAY~~ ! Finally~~! The answer’s Nooooooooooo-peeeeee! From the time I became Gramp’s heir, my name was erased!

Allen: Hey Lavi, why must Bookmen discard their real names? Isn’t it painful?

Marie: You’re one who cherishes his name, huh, Allen.

Bak: Do you really have to go that far in order to be a recorder of alternate history?

Link: Now that you mention it, we’ve received many questions on the Bookmen’s fake aliases.

Lavi: While we’re a Junior, we have to change our names every time we change the place of our log. Because those names will become the title of our logs. Thus, the log for this Holy War will be titled “Lavi”. Makes it easy to search for logs this way. As for whether it’s painful to lose my real name...hmmm, well...frankly, I don’t really know. Since me becoming a Bookman was something that can’t be helped, too. By the way, Gramps is the one who named all the logs.

Wisely: Uh-hmmm. Come to think of it, the name Lavi seems to be...

Lavi: What?

Wisely: Nah, nuffink. (munch munch). Blimey, these doughnuts sure are delicious.

Allen: Hey! You’re eating too many!

Question 6: How did Lavi and Bookman earn money for expenses during travels? The Allen way?

Allen: What do you mean by my way?

Lavi: Means gambling, of course. Ain’t it?

Wisely: Swindling Mafia bosses then fleeing with winnings and the like?

Bak: Mafia!? (falsetto)

Marie: So that’s what you’ve been up to, Allen!? That’s no good! You’re still a kid, aren’t you? Lenalee would wail if she ever hears you’ve been doing such dangerous things.

Allen: Please, please don’t tell Lenalee! I beg you, Marie! (googly eyes).

Link: No matter how adorable a face you manage to make, Noise Marie won’t be able to see it, Walker. We’ll have you tell us all about this later in detail, so for now let’s return to Bookman Jr.

Allen: Eeehhh!?

Lavi: Where were we? Oh, travel expenses, right? Well, members of the Bookman clan are everywhere and they help us out, so both me and Gramps don’t have to work for money.

Marie: You mean you have relatives all over the world?

Lavi: Yup! The whole clan comes together to support the Bookman as the clan’s leader, so Bookman can focus on his logs.

Bak: I never knew the Bookman Clan is such a large-scale thing.

Lavi: Well, since everyone conceals their Bookman lineage and outwardly leads normal lives, it’s no surprise nobody knows.

Allen: Why do they have to hide?

Lavi: Hm? It’s a secret!

D.Gray-Man Vol.26: Komui’s Lounge (Extended) 4/5

>> Part 1 <<

>> Part 2 <<

>> Part 3 <<

Question 20: How many types of headphones does Marie have? And do they function differently?

Marie: Now I only have the latest model the Science Division developed for me. I keep it on at all times except when I go to bed.

Bak: I’ve contributed to the design as well. (ahem)

Marie: Did you? Thank you, Supervisor.

Lavi: But you’ll hear countless noises and voices from a considerable range all the time, right? Isn’t that exhausting?

Wisely: What!? You’re able to hear that much!? Where’s the respect for privacy?

Allen: Shut up about privacy, you.

Marie: Well, it was rough before I got used to it. I trained myself to listen for only important sounds from among countless noises. I’ve come to the point where everyday noises from people doing their chores and talking mostly just flow right by me, and since then I haven’t been “listening in” on anyone.

Link: Aha. You really are a true man of character, Noise Marie. You’d better take notes, Walker.

Allen: How did this come to me?

Link: Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten how you threatened me with Timcanpy’s recordings.

(T/N: I don’t remember where the omake in which this happened is, but it was the recording of Link when Timothy possessed him on the Louvre’s roof and made all those funny faces and slobbering in the Phantom Thief G arc.)

Question 21: I’m curious about the length of time Krory can maintain his enhanced capabilities and the amount of Akuma blood needed. And also whether it is possible to extend his activation time by training, etc.

Bak: As of now he can drink blood from Akuma up to Level Three, and can stay activated for 10 minutes with 250ml of blood. Looks like he’s also experimenting to extend that time with support from the Science Division.

Lavi: Wouldn’t drinking more blood extend the activation time?

Bak: No, it wouldn’t. On the other hand, drinking less than 250ml will shorten the activation time to around 3 minutes.

Marie: When you said he can drink blood from Akuma up to Level Three, is it because he hasn’t experimented with blood from a Level Four yet?

Bak: Well, since obtaining blood from a Level Four is next to impossible...

Wisely: Ho ho ho. Indeed, indeed ♪.

Allen: Seeing Krory enjoying Akuma blood that much really does make you wonder whether it really is delicious, after all.

Link: Don’t try it out, Walker.

Question 22: Does Miranda always carry sweets with her while on a mission? And does she have a favorite flavor?

Link: I’ve heard that since her Innocence requires stamina, she’s come to carrying sweets at all times to supplement her calories, but about the flavor...

Marie: Miranda said she likes minty flavors.

Allen: Are you sure? Miss Miranda always gives me sweets whenever my stomach starts growling, and they’re always fruity flavors like strawberry or pineapple.

Lavi: That’s just coz you like fruit-flavored candies, isn’t it, Allen?

Marie: Haha. So she’s packing fruity candies just for you as well, huh.

Allen: Eh!? Is that so!?

Bak: By the way, whenever Lou Fa learns you’re coming to our branch, she’d always prepare Mitarashi dumplings, Walker.

Allen: Eh!? Now that you mention it, there really did seem to be Mitarashi dumplings around whenever I go to the Asian Branch.

Wisely: What!? If you really loved eating that much, then why didn’t you accept Tikky’s invitation to feast back then?

Allen: It’s not feasting that I have a problem with; it’s that Curly-Head. He’s the very man who tore a hole in my heart, have you forgotten? Do you expect me to enjoy a meal with such a groping pervert?

(T/N: Er, Allen...I think your point is a little off here...)

Link: So you won’t let your appetite win in that case, Walker?

Allen: Yes?

Link: Nothing. That’s a relief.

Question 23: So before Lavi became an Exorcist, he fought with a dagger?

Lavi: Eh? What’s this?

Wisely: They’re probably talking about that time back in the Ark. When you were in Road’s dream, remember?

Lavi: Ohhhh, so that was it. Wait, how come you know about that?

Wisely: La-de-dah♪

Marie: Lavi’s an all-rounder, like Bookman, right?

Allen: What on earth is that?

Marie: Those who can make use of any weapon depending on the situation.

Lavi: That’s because as Bookmen, virtually all our logs are of war zones. So Gramps trained me to be capable of handling any situation, and that training also includes martial arts.

Link: What are you most skilled with?

Lavi: Hmmmm. I like cudgels best, I guess.

Allen: You’re always fooling about whenever we duel-train, Lavi, and I’ve been thinking perhaps you’re no good. Kanda beats you in a blink, you see.

Lavi: Aaaawwww. Come on! It’s such a pain to fight seriously!

Bak: But back then, when you were dueling with Fō, you seemed quite serious, though.

Lavi: I wouldn’t call that a duel; Fō was coming at me like she’s dying to kill me, damn her. How could I not take it seriously!?

Allen: Yeah, Fō does mean it when she fights, doesn’t she.

Bak: She’s more a berserker than a guardian deity, that one.

Link: I see. You will not get serious unless it poses a certain level of threat to your life.

Question 24: Are Nea and the 14th the same individual?

Wisely: My my. Is this reader mistaking something here? “The 14th” is just the alias the previous generation of Noah bestowed upon Nea. There is only one Nea.

Link: Though Nea himself doesn’t seem fond of it; he’s said it is “a nickname given out of distaste”. Guess I’d have to be careful from now...

Allen: Huh? Careful of what?

Link: Would you like some mango juice, Walker?

Allen: WEE-HEE!

Bak: I’ve been wondering. Why isn’t he called “The 14th disciple” like the other Noahs but simply “The 14th”?

Wisely: Perhaps that is the distaste Nea was talking about. As has already been revealed in the Gray Log Fanbook, Nea has no Noah Memory, and for that very reason, the other Noahs may have treated him as the black sheep of the family. Well, I guess I’ll leave you here with a cliffhanger until the boy uncovers Nea’s secrets in the main narrative.

Marie: He has no Noah Memory, so he couldn’t reincarnate like the other Noahs, and that is why he implanted his memories within Allen?

Link: Exactly when did he implant them within you? Do you really have no idea, Walker?

Allen: Told you; I really don’t know! It’s said to be around 35 years ago! I’m sixteen, remember? I didn’t even exist then!

Wisely: ..............

Lavi: What the heck are you grinning about, Three-Eyes?

Wisely: Nuffink.

(T/N: OMG OMG OMG OMG OH MY FREAKING GAWD WISELY DID YOU JUST FREAKING CONFIRM THE PAST!ALLEN THEORY WITHOUT SAYING A SINGLE WORD???!!!)

Question 25: Allen’s left eye should have become able to project the image of the Akuma souls to others, but it seems nobody apart from Lavi has seen it. Is it deciding itself whether to let other people see the souls within the Akuma?

Lavi: Ah, that...Just remembering it still gives me the creeps even now.

Allen: Back then when Lavi and Krory said they could see the Akuma’s soul, at first I was definitely sure the curse has strengthened in power, and from now people other than me will be able to see the souls, too. But after that, nobody ever saw it again. Looks like it’s just a one-time thing, after all.

Lavi: It was right after your damaged eye resurrected with the curse’s power, right? With your eye being in an unusual state like that, anything can happen. Me and Krorykins were just unfortunately caught up in the curse’s rampage.

Allen: Well, it’s a relief, anyway. After all, it’s not a pleasant sight to behold. If it ends with you not having to see it anymore, I’d say it’s for the best.

Bak: I’m interested, though. As part of the Science Division, we welcome any information on the Akuma.

Wisely: So am I. For even my Demon Eye cannot see souls. In what state are they, the souls within Akuma?

Link: How could you say these things like it doesn’t concern you when you’re on the very side creating Akuma?

Marie: Must have been hard getting used to seeing those souls, huh, Allen?

Allen: When I first saw one, I was so scared I couldn’t even bear to look. But Master was patientーWell, for him. “Those things aren’t scary”, he’d scold me; they were once living humans just like us, and they’re just screaming for me to save them, after all. It took a long time, but just like that, little by little I became able to look at them.

Question 26: What do Kanda, Allen, Lenalee and Lavi smell of? Lenalee would probably smell very nice. Well, she’s a girl after all; she’s definitely using perfume and the like, right?

Marie: Hmmmm. Kanda’s scent? Soap is the closest bet, I’d say.

(T/N: Sensei, considering the general negative image of D.Gray-Man as a Yaoi manga may I say this is not a wise move? *laffs*)

Allen: And me, Marie? What about me?

Marie: You usually have a sugary smell about you, Allen. Like dessert.

Lavi: Because there’s always crumbs all over your clothes, Allen.

Allen: Lavi’s eyepatch gives out whiffs of Fabreeze.

(T/N: the popular Japanese brand of air-freshener/deodorant spray.)

Lavi: Oi! Don’t say stuff from the old Instagram page! Some readers won’t get it!

(T/N: In Hoshino’s old Instagram there’s a drawing of Allen spraying Fabreeze at Lavi’s face for some reason. I don’t remember the caption. She’s also reposted it on her new Instagram just to clarify this joke. Maybe it’s just that he never/rarely takes off his eyepatch for cleaning and it’s moldy and sweaty...?)

Marie: Hmmmm...as for Lavi...he smells of tobacco a bit.

Allen: Yeah! Just like Master’s scent.

Lavi: Ah, Gramps’ cigarettes, huh? I’m aware of that.

Wisely: Bookman is a heavy smoker as ever. A wonder his lungs are still holding out even at his age.

Marie: I think Lenalee usually has a flowery scent, though.

Bak: Yes, she does! Lenalee-san smells like sweet flowers!

Allen: Bak-san, keep your voice down! If Komui-san hears you, we’d be in for big trouble!

Lavi: Lenalee doesn’t use perfume, and still she smells so nice.

Allen: There’s this thing she uses. You see, a while back I was talking to Lenalee about having more scars or something, and she said; “This works wonders, you know.” and gave me some of this thingーkinda like Body Oil? Could it have been that oil’s scent? The scars would fade if you keep rubbing this oil on them, from the looks of it. It smells wonderful when she’s putting it on me.

Bak: SHE WAS PUTTING IT ON YOU, WALKEEEEEEER!? (snaps)

(T/N: Trust me I had a really hard time keeping this one from becoming Fifty Shades of (D.) Gray or Silence of the Lambs for that matter...)

Allen: NO ULTERIOR MOTIVE! REALLY!

Lavi: Body oil, huh...ah, my heart’s gettin’ all weird just hearing that.

Link: What’s with that dirty look on your face, Bookman Jr?

D.Gray-Man Vol.26: Komui’s Lounge (Extended) 3/5

>> Part 1 <<

>> Part 2 <<

Question 13: How is the cover image for the tankobon (comic book) and Jump SQ. RISE (the magazine) decided?

Lavi: The author has full liberty for the comic book’s cover, but in the magazine’s case, the exclusive designer will ask the author to draw it according to their image of the cover.

Allen: You know so much, Lavi. I’d expect no less from the author’s bosom friend!

Lavi: Are you dissing me, Allen-san?

Marie: So the designer is the one who decides the character and their pose?

Lavi: Yep. I heard sometimes they even request color tones as well. Because the cover is the face of the whole magazine, Hoshino’s nervous when drawing the magazine’s covers, unlike the comic book’s.

Link: On a side note, on the cover of this latest Volume 26, General Cross is holding a toothpick in his mouth.

Allen: Do we have to go into such detail?

Link: I thought there might be those who are wondering.

Lavi: That’s because back in Volume 14, she drew General Cross holding a cigarette and got scolded.

Bak: What’s wrong with that? Couldn’t she draw whatever she wants to?

Lavi: Well, after all, this is still a shounen manga

(T/N: comic written for teenage boys).

Wisely: Grown-up issues, indeed.

Question 14: Link, between English and French tea, which do you prefer?

Link: We’ve received a number of beverage-related questions. For example, How many sugar cubes does the Millennium Earl consume during teatime? and Exactly how delicious is Lenalee Lee’s coffee? As for my preference, I’d probably say English tea. Inspector Lvellie prefers French tea, though, so I’ve had a great deal of that as well. The Earl prefers English, doesn’t he?

Wisely: Correct you are. The Earl has an awfully sweet tooth. He puts in 20 sugar cubes and lots of milk for a cup of tea. He’s such a dear. He’s moping lately after Desires told him to cut back on his sugar intake. What a dear.

Allen: I wonder why he would consider that adorable.

Lavi: There’s more sugar than tea in your tea, too, right Allen?

Allen: SUPER SWEET TEA WITH SALTY THINGS IS A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN!!!

Lavi: Do you really have to yell it?

Link: Make sure you brush your teeth well, Walker. You’re always sleeping right after your meals.

Allen: Roger roger roger.

Link: Only once is enough!

(T/N: In Japan, saying “yes” (hai) more than once is considered rude, as it shows annoyance. I get that a lot from my coworkers.)

Marie: You had tea parties with Lenalee and Miranda sometimes, right Allen?

Bak: WHAT!? Walker! You!

Allen: Eh? Wait! It’s just because they said they’ll give me sweets. There’s no ulterior motive on my part! Besides, it’s more like Link and Lenalee’s tea discussion with me tagging along than a tea party, actually.

Link: What are you talking about? I was the one accompanying you!

Allen: Well, aren’t you the one who did the most talking?

Link: That’s because you were busy eating the whole time, isn’t it? Lenalee Lee seems to make a hobby out of serving the Science Division coffee and tea, so we simply exchanged ideas on tea leaves and brewing. She’s more of an expert than even me on tea, after all.

Marie: Looks like she’s been studying up for the Science guys’ sake. She learned coffee brewing straight from Head Chef Jeryy himself too, and her coffee’s simply awesome.

Lavi: Plus, you also get to behold that adorable face as she hands you your cup with a smile, and it enhances the experience. Hey, Allen, Lenalee’s been taking really good care of her hands, ya know? Said she wanna serve us tea with beautiful hands. Ah, she really is a lady...

Allen: I’m getting all choked up right now.

Bak: Lenalee-san...you’re wonderful. (in love♡)

Question 15: Does Lavi wash his face with his eyepatch on? Or wash his face in secret?

Allen: He leaves it on.

Lavi: I TAKE IT OFF! OF COURSE I TAKE IT OFF! But yeah, I do wash my face in secret!

Allen: You always leave it on when we use the Order’s communal bath together, don’t you? Why do you have to be so secretive about it? Stop being so stuck-up and let us see it already!

Lavi: Argh! Stop, Allen! Stop yanking! Aaaaaargh!

Marie: Oi, Allen! Lavi told you to stop, didn’t he?

Link: Walker, stop wasting our precious paper bullying Bookman Jr.

Wisely: There, there. It’s fine, isn’t it? Our readers will get stressed out if we keep it all stiff and heavy. Besides, the boy hasn’t seen Bookman Jr. in ages and he’s just thrilled.

Allen: That’s not it!

Bak: That aside, why do you need to hide it? Is there some secret behind it?

Lavi: Well, about that...I really can’t say anything.

Question 16: Since when did Supervisor Komui and Head Chef Jeryy become close friends?

Marie: When...? They already seem close by the time Head Chef Jeryy transferred to Headquarters, though.

Bak: That’s because Komui was the one who recommended Jeryy for the transfer. Jeryy was a cook in the Asian Branch at first, and he went to all sorts of trouble taking care of Komui back when he just joined the Order. Komui was a completely different person back then, you see. He had this slightly dangerous streak about him, so Jeryy probably couldn’t find it in him to just leave him be.

Komui seemed prejudiced against Jeryy for a while there, but then he might’ve lost the battle of wills, and before I knew it, they’ve already become close. After that, when Komui was promoted to Supervisor, Jeryy was the first he called over to Headquarters. It might’ve been to help Lenalee-san who was mentally ill back then, I reckon.

Link: I don’t mind them being close, but calling each other by the likes of “Komie-sweetie” and “Jerry-deary” in the vicinity of Order members is quite out of line in my opinion.

Wisely: That Jeryy-summat lad’s food seems real delicious to me. I’d love to try some.

Allen: Negative. Jeryy-san is mine.

Lavi: He’s not yours...

Question 17: Are Noah Memories comprised of only original memories of the past? Though the Noah Memories are passed on from person to person, can we conclude that the human memories of previous Noah hosts are not passed on to the next Noah host as well?

Lavi: Now this is an interesting question.

Wisely: Hmmm. Yes, the memories are passed on. When we are awakened as Noah, an enormous amount of memories and data would come rushing into our heads, and among them are also the memories and emotions of those who were previous reincarnations of Noah.

Allen: I had the memories of Suman, who became a Fallen One, flow into my head once. Back then, I felt like I’m going to lose my very self. My head felt like it was breaking apart, and I was really scared. Though you’re all Noah anyway, you guys really are something, living carefree even with memories and feelings of countless other people within you.

Wisely: We’re not carefree, boy. In the past there were also Noah whose selves were devoured by the memories and were destroyed. In order to keep that from happening, usually most Noah unconsciously suppress those memories. By doing so, we can shut out the memories of the previous incarnations. However, if Noahs are injured by Innocence, they might not be able to suppress it anymore, and those memories would come flooding back. We Noah also have it tough as well.

Allen: Now that you mention it, the Noah really do seem to become more violent the more we attack them.

Wisely: The profound hatred towards Innocence within the memories is what makes us so. That’s why we’d like you to be gentle with us ♡.

Allen: That tendency to joke about is just what drives me up the wall.

Lavi: Is it true that even among Noahs, the Millennium Earl is the only one who lives for several thousands of years?

Wisely: Correct.

Bak: Do all humans have the possibility of awakening as a Noah?

Wisely: They do.

Marie: And that awakening cannot be prevented?

Wisely: No. Furthermore, once they learn of Noah’s mission, they would accept it with their own free will.

Link: And what is Noah’s mission?

Wisely: Oh dear. That’s a secret~♫

Link: Tch.

Question 18: Looks like Allen’s hobby is saving up money. Was he doing other part-time jobs apart from helping out at the cafeteria as well?

Lavi: Nah, mostly it was just the cafeteria right? ‘Coz you got to sneak some bites.

Allen: It was the best part-time job on earth. At the Order, looks like it’s just the stint at the cafeteria and helping out the Science Division. Actually I’d wanted to earn a bit more, but what with rewriting reports, studying and trainingーeven on holidays I’m still quite busy.

Link: What’s with that disgruntled look? Fulfilling your duties as an Exorcist is just natural. Besides, you’re being paid to be one anyway, aren’t you?

Allen: But that’s totally not enough at all!

Wisely: Can’t be helped, with that much debt on your tab.

Bak: Such hardship at such a young age, Walker. Unimaginable to me, though, well-bred as I am.

Allen: If your heart pains for me, then please donate. (whips out donation box).

Marie: “At the Order”, you said. You mean you’ve worked elsewhere before?

Allen: Back when I was still training, I worked with Master as guards for caravans. Functions as battle training, too. It was a rough job, but the pay really was wonderful. To top that, we also got free meals, and debt collectors didn’t pursue us into deserts, too.

Lavi: You really seem to be able to survive anywhere, huh.

Link: Caravans...? So that’s how you’ve been mingling in and lying low. No wonder we hadn’t been able to track down General Cross.

Question 19: What became of Kanda’s underpants that Lavi hid back in the Weekend Schedule?

(T/N: From Gray Log. Argh dammit haven’t got round to translating Lavi’s)

Marie: Oi! Lavi! You really are such a pain!

Lavi: Ack! Sorry! But Yu’s always so calm and cool, you see. Makes me wanna see him freaking out for once.

Bak: You must really have balls to try that out.

Link: So uncivilized... (T/N: I feel like I’m quoting Obi-Wan a lot...)

Allen: So? Did Kanda freak out?

Wisely: You seem to be enjoying this, boy.

Lavi: Naaaaah～Actually, he just got dressed like nothing happened then went out to the forest for night practice.

Allen: ーwith NO UNDERPANTS ON!?

Marie: Well, it’s not totally unexpected...or rather...Kanda probably won’t get worked up over such things?

Wisely: I see...It’s the same with Tikky too. Is it just that gorgeous men do not need underpants to be gorgeous men?

Allen: I have completely no idea what you’re talking about here.

Lavi: To top that, looks like Yu just slept in the forest like that with no underpants on, too. It really wasn’t worth the trouble hiding his pants. Ah, bummer.

Marie: It's not just ah bummer, is it!? Give Kanda back his pants!

Lavi: Whaaaaat!? Even if I did return it to him, the way things are Yu wouldn’t remember it anyway. He’d probably just say something like “Huh? What’s this about?” then just stalk off! And I’d be left looking like a dork who bombed a pant-stealing prank! It’s embarrassing!

Marie: You got it backwards. What’s embarrassing here is the fact that you hid someone’s underpants, good grief (weary face).

Allen: Marie, you have to be more seriously angry, otherwise you’ll never get through to Lavi. Gotta look more strict.

Lavi: Youーyou traitor! You were all grins back there when you heard how I hid Yu’s pants, weren’t you, Allen!?

Allen: Was I? Of course not. Unlike you, I’m not a little kid.

Lavi: Ha! You’re one to talk! Whenever you do part-time at the cafeteria, you’re always stealing bites out of Yu’s food before you serve it to him. Think I didn’t know!?

Allen: That’s because Kanda’s always mocking my hospitality skills. Befitting punishment, I say! It’s not like you’re any better, Lavi. I know you’re always stuffing Kanda’s bag full of porn whenever he goes on a mission. And then there’s the time you tampered with Kanda’s toothpasteー

Lavi: You were with me that time, weren’t you!?

Bak: There’s more?

Wisely: A-ho-ho-ho (laughing). Somehow I feel like we can be good friends, boys.

Marie: Would you guys stop it already? Look, I’m grateful that you boys care about Kanda, since you guys are around the same age, but tone down the pranks! He’s still not used to these things.

Allen, Lavi: Aw, come on~!

Link: We shall not let our precious word count be depleted further by such a nonsensical topic. This conversation ends here!!

D.Gray-Man Vol.26: Komui’s Lounge (Extended) 2/5

>> Part 1 <<

Question 7: Is it coincidence that Bookman and Lavi, master and apprentice, are both compatible with Innocence?

Wisely: Now that’s one close shave of a question~. I know why, but I’m not telling ♫.

Lavi: I was curious about this too, but when I ask Gramps he just said “Someday you’ll know”, so I left it there. I’m wondering whether it’s got something to do with that “other side of the Holy War” General Cross was talking about.

Allen: Wait, you mean you came to the Order knowing you would become Innocence accommodators?

Link: Impossible.

Lavi: Looks like it for Gramps. Since he said it right out that “From now on, we will become Exorcists and record the Holy War”.

Marie: What a surprise. I’ve never heard of such a thing happening.

Bak: Neither have I. The Bookmen really is a clan cloaked in mystery, just like the Noahs.

Question 8: I'd like to know how Allen managed to write his mission reports for all this time, if he’s still practicing his reading and writing.

Allen: Well, it’s not that I can’t read or write at all, but I’ve been through a ton of do-it-overs.

Lavi: For a while back there, me and Lenalee just couldn’t stand it so we used to help him out. But the real problem is Allen’s handwriting itself is so bad nobody can read his reports.

Bak: Agreed.

Link: We really must do something about Walker’s handwriting, don��t we? It’s just too atrocious. Take that questionnaire and other papers I had him fill out when I first came to inspect him. Over half is utterly illegible.

Wisely: Really? Even Tikky could at least write letters people can read, you know.

(T/N: Wisely is calling Tyki by his nickname.)

Allen: SHUT UP! (blush madly)

Marie: There, there. You’re doing better now than before you started taking lessons from Krory, right Allen? Great job!

Allen: Marie...! (overwhelmed)

Link: Please don’t spoil him, Noise Marie. That we have to be strict with Walker now is for his own future as well. It’ll be embarrassing if he’s still writing like that when he grows up.

Allen: You're such a boring nag, Link! That’s why my handwriting’s so bad!

Link: No quibbling from you! WhaーOi! Don’t you hide behind Noise Marie!

Question 9: I’d like to know how the Science Division members came to learn about and join the Order?

Bak: Most are scouted out. We recruit outstanding individuals. The process is different for the other divisions, though.

Lavi: Though there are many who joined the Order out of hatred for the Akuma, in the Science Division there aren’t many of those, dontcha think? They’re not high-strung, too.

Marie: Ah. Many a time we’ve been saved by the Science Division’s liveliness.

Allen: We can drop in to play around with ease, too.

Link: The Science Division’s not your playground, Walker.

Allen: Roger roger roger.

Link: Only once is enough!

Wisely: Inspector lad reminds me of Desires somehow. Not a type I’m comfortable with.

Question 10: After the Sixth Laboratory was destroyed, was it just abandoned as an empty lot or rebuilt into a part of the Asian Branch?

Marie: Fō is the one who destroyed it, isn’t she?

Bak: Yeah. It was my mother’s...the previous Branch Head’s last request. Fō also sunk the corpses of all the researchers and Crow members that died back then deep underground along with it, too. This is just my imagination, but I reckon everyone involved in that experiment probably went in resolving to make that laboratory their own graves. As of now, the place is sealed from entry. No-one can enter except for me, Fō and Renny. Grandfather Zu is buried there as well, as per his wishes.

Wisely: Probably because that’s a place the Order and Central had wanted to keep hidden, I'd say.

Link: ..................

Allen: How did you escape back then, Marie?

Marie: I was injured and unconscious, and Kanda rescued me, from the looks of itーbefore the laboratory sunk down whole, that is. When I woke up, I was lying atop a pile of rubble with Kanda beside me. After that, we were found by Fō, Branch Supervisor Bakーhe was Section Chief back thenーRenny Epstein and Master Zu, and they hid us in top secret.

Bak: Renny was rescued by my mother and Grandfather Zu, because she’s the Epsteins’ only heir.

Lavi: So Kanda’s case file at the Order really is fake, after all. I’ve always thought it seems dodgy.

Marie: But back then, Kanda and I couldn’t trust the Order, the Branch Supervisor and everyone else at all. Kanda was dealing with his past self’s memories and his guilt for destroying Alma, and he was unstable. I took him along and we fled from the Asian Branch together. Now that I’m thinking back, it was quite too easy an escape. Especially when Fō was supposed to be guarding the gateway between the Asian Branch and the outside world.

Bak: That’s because Fō was helping you out.

Marie: So it really was her. I knew it.

Bak: We were worried sick! Them lot from Central was in a panic when you guys went missing. After a while we received contact from General Tiedoll and finally learned where you guys are, but the general’s fury was terrible to behold back then. Well, it was to be expected, though.

Allen: But you didn’t know anything about the Second Exorcist Project, did you, Bak-san?

Bak: But regardless, I as heir must shoulder the burden of the sin my clan committed.

Lavi: To think you’d somehow return to the Order after all that, Marie. Well, since you’re accommodated to Innocence there’s no choice but to return anyway, I guess.

Marie: It’s because I just can’t leave Kanda alone. He’s my savior, after all. Besides, with him being the way he is, I just can’t stop worrying.

Question 11: Supervisor Komui and Branch Supervisor Bak both had long hair once but now cut it short. Is there a meaning behind this?

Link: We’ve been receiving quite a lot of hair-related questions. There’s the usual ones about Yu Kanda and Bookman Jr’s hair type, and also ones like Who is styling the exorcists’ hair? and How many wigs does the Noah Jasdero have in stock? Though I hardly think anything interesting will come out of answering anyway, since the questions are here, I guess it is our duty to answer them.

Allen: I reckon the ladies probably have their hair styled by the Order’s resident barber. The service is on a reservation basis, so it feels kinda bothersome to me, and I’ve never used it. By the way, Lavi’s hair type is coarse as briar.

Lavi: Just coarse! Never said it’s briar coarse! I’ve also never visited the Order’s barber; Gramps cut my hair for me. And Johnny does it sometimes, too.

Allen: Same for me. You swing by the Science Division, then Johnny would say something like “Your hair’s getting long! Ain’t it getting in the way?” then he’d go snippity-snip on the spot, right?

Marie: Well, the Science Division folks are always too busy with overtime and Johnny’s been cutting their hair for them since the old days, the handy fellow. Now that you mention it, I just remembered: Supervisor Komui used to cut Lenalee’s hair for her until she was about 13. Now Lenalee’s the one cutting his hair, though.

Bak: Lenalee-san cuts his hair...!? Thーthe lucky bastard...! Come to think of it, Komui changed to short hair right around the time Lenalee-san starts smiling. So that was it...? So that’s how it is...?

Wisely: Your brain is filled with nothing but jealousy right now, Branch Supervisor. By the way, Dero has ten of those gorgeous golden wigs.

(T/N: Wisely is calling Jasdero by his nickname.)

Allen: Why is he wearing a wig?

Wisely: Anything more than that will be a violation of privacy. My lips are zipped.

Allen: Is it by any means your place to talk privacy?

Link: Branch Supervisor, you still haven’t answered your question. Please get it over with already.

Lavi: Inspector guy’s totally calling the shots here, huh? (gossip)

Allen: Yeah, hard to fool around this time...Link’s so serious. (gossip)

Wisely: This time I can finally feel the author’s determination to keep to the word count limit. (gossip)

Link: Over there! No pointless chatter!

Bak: (s-scary...) I cut my hair short when I became Branch Supervisor. There’s no deeper meaning behind it. If I have to say so, then perhaps a show of spirit? Or a mark of my determination or something...

Question 12: Is there a cosplay you want ALL characters to wear, regardless of alignment (Order/Noah)?

Link: Is this a question for the author?

Allen: I have a bad feeling about this.

Lavi: Yeah, Hoshino’s answer won’t be anything even half-decent.

Wisely: Let me take a glimpse with my demon eye (peek). Huh!? I see, I see.

Marie: What was it?

Wisely: The author is an Idol fan. Need I say more?

Allen, Lavi: I knew it!

Link: Lucky for us this isn’t a comic-style lounge session, right?

Lavi: We were on the verge of being forced into Idol clothes back there!
