Nah-nah-nah! Riot Ink business caaaards! *heehee*
I'm okay, really.
I am headachey!!! As Amy would say... my head is doing the achey brakey dance of PAIN. So, I imagine I will get nothing done in class. Ms. Fotinos is gonna kill me for skipping anyway... *sighs*
Querida! I shall continue my efforts to make dad buckle!!
Meagen-san.... really, I know what you mean. Technically, I can draw, but I kinda lack depth in my art (from what I can see). There are very few pictures that turn out with the emotion or realism I want them to come out with..... and funny enough, that kyara that I tend to make look how I want is good ol' Lucas.
Lucas: What can I say? I'm perfect. *mutters* Yeah, right...
And yes, you're getting fanart. Now if only I can manage to scan it....
Meg's Art Corner! Raphael-chan, or as I refer to him in RPs, Lian's Rukura. This is a fine example of what I draw in math class on scrap paper. And querida? It's not THAT good. ^##^;;;;
That's all from me!
Over an' out!
( 10:48 PM )   Of course my idea is good, querida! I'm so smart after all! *tosses away IQ test scores that say only 142* Lucas with blue hair.... streaked with green!!!!!! Yeeaaah, baby!       ( 3:23 PM )   Warning, incoming rant!
STUPID! GODDAMN FLIPPIN' STUPID!! What a GOOD way to get yourself killed! Doing f*cking drugs! STUPID STUPID!!! Goddamn it! I mean, pot, okay that's bad. Bad and STUPID. But 'shrooms?!! HOT DAMN IS THAT STUPID!! And not only that, getting yourself into a situation where you get thrown out of your mom's house?! F*cking stupid! *fumes*
(note: never mind, needed to vent.... friend issues)
( 2:00 PM )   At home and skipping civics class.... *whistles and rocks back on her heels* 9.9
You know what's scary? It's scary when a dood whom you eat lunch with even jokes about wanting to rape you. That's scary. Even scarier is when he pins you against the wall and you have to fight him off, and when he comes back, your best (guy) friends beat the living sh*t out of him. Not quite sure what to make of this.... big super duper hugs and thank yous to Mike and Matt, my new bodyguards. Dan, touch me again, and they'll kill you for sure. I'll see to it. *sweet smile*
( 7:32 AM )   Morning blog!
Querida: Yep, the Mark plot is similar to our dj idea... except a bit more profound. *heh* And seriously, tho, a good plot would be something to the effect of Mark goes baaaad-niichan and tries to end the world, and you gots to stop him. There's a plot. Hooray for plots! Cam's efforts on trying to get Mark to put some sort of value on his own body should start working someday. I mean, HOW many times has Cam explained it? Not to mention, Mark has a nice idea of how Cam thinks now that he's been inside his mind. Mark-niichan's a slut.... but I love him anyway!
Cam: *pounds the living daylights out of Meg for calling Mark such a thing*
*heeheehee* Animal comparisons! *heehee* I gotta try that! Rukura = gecko Poya = otter Yuken = viper Lucifer = duck Michael = horse Zachariah = pot-bellied pig (personality wise) Gabriel = peacock Kanson = crocodile (someone patch in a call to australia, let's get the Crocodile Hunter in here, please... *crosses fingers*)
Meagen-san: I'm working on a fanart for you of SailorM. I shall prolly CG it tonight or tomorrow, okie?
School blows! I don't wanna go to school! WAH!
over and out.
( 6:35 PM )   For fun, and just to annoy him... Rukura's stats!

Human mother died in childbirth, human father committed suicide a few months later. Is considered a "problem child", as he usually gets into fights at school. Been shifted around to foster homes all his life, never staying in one particular home longer than 1 1/2 years.

( 6:24 PM )   Chris-kun: Dood, a meant the person playing as being Mark... ^__^;;
Meg-chan's on net restrictions, lalalalala... she's gonna get in trouble if she gets caught on the internet, lalalalala... she's rewriting stats for LotM, lalalalala.... she's TOO attached to Raphael-chan, lalala--
Rukura: *belts Meg in the head* Don't call me that! Meg: It's your legal name, isn't it? I like it better 'an Rukura...
Dan wants me to hit him. In the eeeeeew kinda way. Do I really come across as that much of a dom? @_@
( 7:16 AM )   Morning blog!
This is bound to be a short enrty, as mom is home. Sooo...
I had a really funky dream last night, but I don't remember it. All I remember is waking up a lot, upset, and trying to recall where I was. Bennett was curled up to me most of the night (good spiritie dood ^_^), but I don't think it helped much.... ah, well, it's the thought that counts.
Yesterday, I blew $44 on prismacolor pens. I got the box set of cool greys, plus a replacement 60% warm grey as mine is running out. That's me broke for another month now.
BMB is cuuuuuute today. *giggles* I want my verra' own Mik! I *heartheart* Mik! Rach, you better get me a Mik for my birthday! Or else!
I can't draw worth beans lately. *cries*
to Chris-kun: Thanks for the comment on the layout... and maybe now I'll bug querida to do an AH game (I honestly didn't think about that @_@).
*ponders* Yeah, you could go arouns as Mark in the game, and you could sleep with every second person you run into---
Cam: SHUT UP! *thwacks Meg* Meg: Hey, it's not my fault that your hubby is a total sl--- Cam: *throws a table at Meg* Meg: Itaaaai. X_X
Otaaay, enough out of me. Over and out.
( 11:44 PM )   Hal is GOD... lalalala! Hal is thy holy master!       ( 11:27 PM )   Purple is a nice colour! It's the colour of hentai. ^__^;       ( 12:30 AM )   BEHOLD THE NEW LAYOUT!!!
....very purple, isn't it?
( 3:58 PM )   This close >< to shooting myself...       ( 3:56 PM )   I WILL get this to work.... I swear I will.       ( 3:53 PM )   HTML is annoying. Background image, where are you?       ( 3:50 PM )   Let's hope for the background image now.... *crosses fingers*       ( 3:45 PM )   Playing with the layout...       ( 3:25 PM )   This is the temp layout, as I'm altering this puppy to look how I want it to. New version should be up tonight.       ( 2:43 PM )   Chris-kun: the Boa cd has two names. One is the japanese release, the other is for the international market. It's either called Race of the Thousand Camels or Twilight (like this here blog!). And the Limp Bizkit cd is called Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavoured Water. And Hannibal is a lot different than the Silence of the Lambs, isn't it? I liked it, but I stand by the fact that Jodie Foster made a much better Clarice Starling than Julianne Moore could ever hope to be.
Anyway.
My Bennett still isn't home... Dora, is he still with you? If not, you'd think he'd be home by now... *sighs*
Okay, time for me to book it outta' here for a bit afore dad calls and has a fit 'cause the line is busy.
( 8:05 PM )   Interlude...
Meg: Cain and Yuken! KAWAII!!!! Yuken: *giggles and twitches his neko-mimi, looking all innocent* Rukura: ICK! Who the HELL would touch HIM!? *points at Yuken* Meg: Well, you 'touched' him once... Rukura: NOT BY CHOICE, GODDAMMIT!! .... *sneezes* Yuken: *eyes Rukura venomously* Rukura: I'll be running off to Lian now... *heads for the hills as fast as his (verra' long) legs can carry him*
( 8:00 PM )   Querida, thank goodness it's not bronchitis. That's something I get a LOT, and it's not fun at all. And ten pounds? ALRIGHT! You GO, girlfriend!! *tackleglomps* You'll be okay.... I know so! ^.^
I got the "Play" cd (Moby), which came with the edit of South Side for free. Bonus, baby! ^_____^
( 7:24 AM )   Morning blog!
Well, I feel mighty stupid this morning. Yesterday, I kinda pulled a muscle in my left leg (riiight in my calf), but it stopped hurting. Woke up from a funky dream and got up to find it hurt. Now, being the idiot I am and not usually restricted by physical pain (hey, that's what ended up breaking my ankle), I went for a shower. Feeling headachey and cramped, I worked my way down the stairs, only to pull the same muscle again and fall about halfway down and land on the cat at the bottom. ^___^;;; <---- feels very dumb
*falls over* Meagen-san, you had me scared a minute there! If you had MEANT Mark, I would have had to call in paramedics and stuff to make sure you weren't doped up on anything!!!! @_@
List of kyara and colours this blog is gonna be themed on in order of layout updates: Cam/purple (this weekend, hopefully) Lucas/red (whenever) Mark/blue (whenever) Sybandial/pink (whenever) Jesse/green (whenever)
Each layout will have a background featuring the kyara, too! ^_^
I really need a life. Over and out!
( 9:51 PM )   Song lyrics... one of Cam's most recent themes! "Learn to Fly" by the Foo Fighters
Run and tell all of the angels This could take all night Think I need a devil to help me get things right
Hook me up a new revolution Cuz this one is a lie We sat around laughing And watched the last one die
I'm looking to the sky to save me Looking for a sign of life Looking for something to help me burn out bright I'm looking for a complication Looking cuz I'm tired of lying Make my way back home when I learn to fly
I'm done nursing the patience I can wait one night I'd give it all away if you'd give me one last try We'll live happily ever trapped if you'd just save my life Run and tell the angels that everything's all right
I'm looking to the sky to save me Looking for a sign of life Looking for something to help me burn out bright I'm looking for a complication Looking cuz I'm tired of trying Make my way back home when I learn to fly Make my way back home when I learn to
Fly along with me, I can't quite make it alone Try to make this life my own Fly along with me, I can't quite make it alone Try to make this life my own
I'm looking to the sky to save me Looking for a sign of life Looking for something to help me burn out bright I'm looking for a complication Looking cuz I'm tired of trying Make my way back home when I learn to
Looking to the sky to save me Looking for a sign of life Looking for something to help me burn out bright I'm looking for a complication Looking cuz I'm tired of trying Make my way back home when I learn to fly Make my way back home when I learn to fly Make my way back home when I learn to...
( 7:06 PM )   Tay, I've decided the theme for my next layout... good ol' Bennett and the colour purple. How... fitting. ^__^
Now if only I can get this stupid HTML editor thing to work... *binks it*
( 11:05 AM )   Morning blog (late again)!
WHOO HOO! I GOT INTO THE ADVANCED VISUAL ART STUDIO CLASS!!! BIG HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ON MR. HALL!!!!
Yeaaah, I just went to first period class this morning and got my classes for next year reviewed. Then I came home because the muscles in my abdomen are spasming and it hurts like bugger all.
To all my blogging friends; I'm gonna change the layout of this blog in the next week (I have a LOT of links to add). I'm gonna theme it around an AH kyara, so lemme know who you think would be best, please. Just post your opinion in your blog, as I read most of them daily anyway. ^__^;
( 8:23 PM )   Yeah, I've neglected my duties as a blog-person lately... I have a life, you know. (Hey, the LEAST you can do is smile and nod! T_T)
Not much is happening, really. My civics class keeps getting cancelled, so I think I'll skip it tomorrow and come home early. What else to say...? Ummm, not much.
Song of the moment: "The Kids Aren't Alright" by the Offspring. I'm on a REAL Offspring kick right now... dunno why exactly. Maybe 'cause they just amuse me. ^_^;
Grammy awards. Bleeeek. *makes a face*
Amy, kids who don't like cheese are stupid! HA HA!
( 3:33 PM )   ...afternoon.... blog!
This morning I spent the whole time trying to get my scanner to work, so thus, no morning blog. But I've got some stuff say for a change!
Today, lunch period was spent bothering Dan for the most part. He really ticked me off yesterday, and I'm extracting my revenge. So, I was making him jealous by glomping Matt at every opportunity (Matt doesn't mind too much, and he's nice to hug 'cause he's always warm.... and no, Mike, he's not my boyfriend! JUST A FRIEND!! T_T). It was rather comical. Civics class was cancelled, since Ms. Fotinos was at the Raptor's game with the people who signed up to go... the half of my class that was at school for the last three periods of the day got transferred to a Grade 12 geography class, in which was SO awkward that the teacher took pity on us and sent us all home. Redoing Angel Hunter again. This time, on the right sized paper... I'm sticking with the page layouts, tho, as I think I've got the look I want.
And, for fun! Rukura's theme song lyrics!
Home by Depeche Mode
Here is a song from the wrong side of town Where I'm bound to the ground by the loneliest sound That pounds from within and is pinning me down
Here is a page from the emptiest stage A cage or the heaviest cross ever made A guage of the deadliest trap ever laid
And I thank you for bringing me here For showing me home, for singing these tears Finally I've found that I belong here
The heat and the sickliest sweet smelling sheets That cling to the backs of my knees and my feet I'm drowning in time to a desperate beat
And I thank you for bringing me here For showing me home, for singing these tears Finally I've found that I belong...
Feels like home I should have known From my first breath
God sent the only true friend I call mine Pretend that I'll make amends the next time Befriend the glorious end of the line
And I thank you for bringing me here For showing me home, for singing these tears Finally I've found that I belong here.
( 7:11 AM )   Morning Blog!
This song is tripping me out right now, but goddamn, do I love it! *grooves to "Home" by Depeche Mode* It's a really dramatic song... and it's sooooo making me think of Rukura. >_<;
It's very cold this morning. At least I think so, anyway, so I'm sitting here wearing the couch blanket as a cape. I feel like a doooork.
Meg's Art Corner (Freckle-chan, you copycat! T_T)
A special little picture; Lucas in his newest style of dress. Drool factor, out of 10? 12.
What else to say... ummm... Mom didn't leave me lunch money again. T_T;
Over and out!
( 2:12 PM )   Cam: EVERYONE RUN WHILE YOU CAN!!!! THE END IS NEAR!!!!!
....yep, for the first time in YEARS, I'm the proud owner of twp pairs of blue jeans. I've not worn blue jeans since I was about 5... and these ones fit niiiiice. I have hips and a waist.... @__@
Anyway, mom and I went to Sears and then to Curry's Art Supplies. I got my two pairs of jeans, two men's dress shirts (one white, one black), a new sketchbook, 4 new warm grey prismacolors, and a new 05 pigment pen. I am a happy Meg-chan!
Blue jeans that fit... *in shock*
( 9:09 PM )   I have officially started rewriting the Chronicles of Benjamin Carter! WHIHAI! Here's a bit of what I've written so far.
Frail. Benjamin was frail. He was about 5'4, fifteen years of age, and pale. He was small and slight in build; a boy and not yet a man. Right now, he looked more fragile than he really was... curled up under the blankets of his rather small bed, bruised and crying. It was a familiar scene.
Benjamin wiped at his eyes with the back of his hand in a vain attempt to push the tears away. However, it was pointless since more just spilled down his cheeks as if to spite him and his efforts to stop them. He hated crying. Hated it. But at times like this --- only at times like this--- he couldn't help himself. He was so tired of being forced into the clutches of rich men; predators that liked their pleasure taken out on the young boys who could be bought if the price was right. He was sick of the violation and the abuse. Most of all, he was sick of his father pushing him into it. His own father. He hiccupped in his efforts to restrain his tears.
Benjamin wanted more than anything to run away. Run away to another city, another country, anywhere but where he was. Just out of the clutches of the people who hurt him so much. But he was trapped like the birds his father kept in the iron cages that lined the back yard. He was a prisoner, shackled to the bars of his perpetual cage. Derkshaw would catch him if he ran. Derkshaw always caught him.
"Damn him to hell," Benjamin thought bitterly, though he regretted thinking it for reasons he couldn't quite explain.
There was a tap of boots in the hallway, and Benjamin closed his eyes, breathed deeply, and pretended to be asleep. The heavy, even steps stopped outside his door. The door squeaked as it opened slightly.
Benjamin tried to keep his breathing slow and deep, tried not to flinch. He felt Derkshaw's gaze on him. It burned.
'Go away, papa, go away....'
The door opened a bit more, and the tap of boots carried into the room.
It would be a good half hour before Derkshaw left, the blood on his hands and shirt not his own.
( 2:28 PM )   Man, am I grateful for mom. She just brought me the most wonderful little care packet of a bottle of ibuprofen and a Terry's Dark Chocolate Orange bar. *sniffles happily* Thank you, mommie!
Amy, Amy, Amy.... you have no idea how much stress is gone already. *heavy sigh* I can't thank you enough.
Spellleeeeeeerrrr, next weekend is go for coming over to my house to watch movies! You like freaky movies, I'll make you watch freaky ANIME movies! On the roster so far: Perfect Blue and X. Maybe I'll make a trip to Roger's Video and snag Devil Man or something. But I will get you hooked. I will. Your time will come (*sings* thy will be done!).
*laughing at BMB* Yeah, Mik, you dirty minded cutie! You think those nasty thoughts about Harley! *laughing*
Oiiii, Freckle-chan... you posted a nice list of couples you like. I think for fun, I'll do the same!
Cardcaptor Sakura Touya and Yukito - kawaii! KAWAII!!!! Sakura and Tomoyo - so sue me!
Oh My Goddess! Trobadour and Urd - they were cool! Too bad he's such a dork. Keiichi and Belldandy - well, DUH!
Magic Knight Rayearth Ascot and Umi - I'm a sucker for Ascot. What a little cutie! Clef and Presea - ditto that, 'cause Clef is so cute and so short!
Dragon Half Mink and Lufa - not likely, I know, but still.
Bakuretsu Hunter Tira and Carrot - feh on Chocolate. She's not half as cool as Tira. Marron and Gateau - I don' like Gateau too much, but Marron is so hot. *_*
Ranma 1/2 Ranma and Shampoo - not likely, either, but I think Mousse is too wussy for her. I've always been a Ranma/Shampoo 'shipper.
Shamanic Princess Kagetsu and Tiara - it's a sad relationship... Sarah and Tiara - um, don't ask.
Slayers Lina and Gourry - he's so funny around her... ^__^
Sailor Moon Usagi and anyone but Mamoru! T_T; Chibi Usagi and Pelulu [Perelu, Perele] - *heehee* Cute fae-ish boy with white hair!
Neon Genesis Evangelion Shinji and Asuka - I think she really does like him. She just doesn't know how to show it. Misato and Koji - funny funny! She's a player, tho.
RPing kyara [involving mine] Cam and Mark - for obvious reasons. Rukura, Lian, and Gabby - yes, a yaoi threesome. They're all so cute. Sola [Soren] and Sybandial - so innocent and sweet. ^_^ Jyrian and Quoik - I don't talk about these two much, but their relationship is really cute. Jesse and Rach - how can I not like this? He's cute, she's cute (haha, Rach!) Lucas and Lila - I liked this possibility... too bad she's dead and we won't find out what woulda' happened. Lucas and Carter - this is a slightly more demented relationship. Cadence and Lexiel - a more intellectual relationship... even if Lexiel is kinda big on sex for sick reasons. ^_^; Cadence3 and Cam - I'm a sick, sick girl. Lucifer and Setsuko - if we get Setsuko back, then we can resume this. They're cute too. ^_^
Other Stories Kiih and Ro (from Dora's "Three O'Clock") - I don't really know why... these two just kinda hit it off in my mind. Len and Yuri (see above) - ditto the above again.
Book Series Ron and Hermione - need I explain? Sirius and Remus - again, need I explain? Lestat and Louis (Anne Rice's VC books) - strange but yummy relationship Lestat and David - intellectual and alluring. Marius and Amadeo - Stokholm syndrome. Cal and Meg (A Wrinkle in Time) - KAWAII!
That's that done. ^__^;
( 10:41 PM )   Sap warning ahead!
I have the best best friends in the whole world! My best friends are Speller and Amy!
Speller, who I know I don't mention on here too much (I'm sorry! ;_;), is the smartest person I know. She's also one of the most talented writers, too. How many people can write a whole novel before/during high school? Aside from Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, not many. And her poetry kicks ass! She has a lot of it published. She can also draw better realistic stuff than I can, which makes me mondo jealous. It's not fair, I tell you! And she must learn to watch out for Hannibal. Beware him. Speller likes pudding. And pears. Damn those pears.
Amy and I have been friends since 7th grade, when she was the "new kid". We actually first met in drama class. She ran over a possum on her way to work. Yeeeah! She, too, is an amazing writer. It's not FAIR! She came runner up in the story writing contest a while back. I was proud. And I SCREEEEEEAMED the loudest when she won the Todd Bayless award. I live to embarrass.... ^_~
I am grateful to have such good friends. I love them. This concludes the sap. ^___^;
( 9:04 PM )   Querida, you're cooler than Simon and Milo! (Personally, Milo's a tad too butch for my liking, but Simon is a cute little brit guy with the sweetest little sentiments!) ....anyway.... yes, you have a neck. I hope. ^_~
And to complete the phrase you know you have problems when...you obsess over a cartoon with no neck, no nose, and huge eyes!
( 7:29 AM )   Morning blog!
I watched Perfect Blue last night. It downright scared me! Seeing Hannibal didn't scare me, seeing the Rage; Carrie 2 didn't scare me.... but Perfect Blue DID. The "real Mima" (the one who's forever in the Cham costume) is SCARY!!! And the Mimaniac is pretty scary too. o_O Iffen you haven't seen this movie, get it. Especially if you like stuff like Neon Genesis Evangelion, X, or Serial Experiments Lain. I warn you, there's nudity, a rape scene, and a lot of gore. This movie freaked me out more than Eva did.
In other news... going to the art store tomorrow!!! And, I'm also skipping 5th period today. Maybe even 3rd, 'cause I'm stuck doing NOTHING all class anyway. -_-;
Hopefully they have the 10x15 paper I want... 'cause, you know, that being the traditional dimensions for comic drawing. Y'all knew that, right? *gives you a loooooook*
And I best be off to get ready... JA!
( 7:02 PM )   Blogger hates me.
OH! OH! EVERYONE GO READ TODAY'S BMB!!! CY AND SKIDS FOREVERRRRR!!!!
I'm having a hell of a lucky streak this week. Today, in the mail, I got an AUTOGRAPHED Simon and Milo picture, FRAMED!!! *swoons*
And I got Perfect Blue!!!!
( 5:14 PM )   Gonna go see Hannibal with Mike and Chris in about half an hour! ^__^       ( 7:21 AM )   Morning Blog!
Last night, began a really angsty RP with Cam and Mark (well, it was angsty on Cam's end). Now, I only just realized that I think up really weird stuff that follow pretty much all the major time/space/reality laws. And all on a whim and at random. It's strange. You know you study this stuff too much when.... Yep, it's not every day when I come up with plots like that puppy. Using the imprints left in the reality weave to reconstruct a Mark.... that's some strange stuff (but it actually makes sense, which is what throws me). Huh.
I feel guilty... I got mad at Amy last night. She was being a little more depressing than usual, and I just couldn't stand it. I'm sick and stressed and I don't need to boost her ego all the time.
I've had this urge for the past couple of days to draw Cam shaking Lucas by the shoulders and looking very upset while Lucas looks blank. I don't really know why.... the caption for it has been running through my head, as it is this: "What am I to you?!" Trippiness.
Well, being the idiot I am, I didn't do my civics homework. My group is gonna love me for that.... then again, they're sticking me with the job of reading the presentation on Spain because I'm the only one that knows how to speak some Spanish. *sweatdrops*
I'm having urges to draw the weirdest things.... I hate it when Cam angsts at me from his little spot in my mind.
Meg's Art Corner A really weird little picture of c3 and a Chibi Cam. C3 is drawn more in my gothic anime style than my normal one. Turned out quite well! ^_^
Over and out!
( 7:16 PM )   Neeee, imouto! If you're not gonna be doing Yunga Neko for a while, you should get a guest artist to do, like, weekly panels just until you can work on it again. *volunteers*       ( 7:14 AM )   Morning blog time again, kids!
I'm feeling okay this morning, so school for me. *sigh* School is so boring. Lunch is okay, mind you, because I have (as Speller said) "so many male bitches that work" for me. ^__^
I've been doing a lot of drawing since I got those pens. It's scary... can't wait to get more! ^__^ I also gotta get me some 10 X 15 paper, 'cause that's the standard comic size. I don't feel up to fighting with printers because the size ratio on 8.5 X 11 is uneven. Screw it. I'll just redo it all on standards.
I'm having the straaangest breakfast. Pork chops. Don't ask me, it was the only thing I could find...
Song of the moment: "Cruel Angel's Thesis (Harmonia Remix)" from Evangelion. *slobbers* I forgot what a COOL remix this is!!!
Meg's Art Corner Ben Carter, looking cute and vaguely distant! (Hey, he's a Blink fan, too!) Mark makes a scarilly cute girl. o_O Appearently, so does Lucas. Onna-Cam makes me think of Rally from Gunsmith Cats for some reason.... How cliché.
Over and out!
( 5:30 PM )   Nah nah naaaah! Meg has Sympatico access!!
Anyway, Meg also got herself some niiiiice grey prismacolor pens yesterday! Meg drew some pretty pretty pictures with them, too! Meg is happy, so she is!
Meg's Art Corner With her new prismacolors in hand, Meg is proud to present her latest creations! Angelique, the evil evil bitchy whore of a Demon from AH. She's pretty, tho. ^_^; "Legacy of the Messiah" cast shot; Rukura, Lucifer, and Pandora as kids! Carter and Lucas, a strange relationship these doods have. Carter looks somewhat like Cam, doesn't he? Quoik, Meg's only fae kyara!!
( 2:25 PM )   Tiredtiredtiredtired....
At the Office Place, they have a set of 24 prismacolor markers for about 40 bucks. I WANT THEM, but mom says "no, I don't have that kind of money right now". So, what we're gonna do, is I'm gonna drag her to Curry's Art Supplies store in a few hours and see how much THEY'RE selling them for.... maybe she'll buckle and take me back to the Office Place. ^_~
I need grey markers...
...oh, note to all who talk to me at night online. I won't be on until really late 'cause the network will be down. Unless mom hooks us up with Sympatico tonight, I'll be on around 2am. *sniffles* I'm gonna be without my querida fix! *snifflesniffle*
( 8:34 PM )   Lack of bloggingness today, as you all may have noticed. Dunno why, I was home again....
song of the moment: "Under the Bridge" by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. I *heart* Flea.... what an AMAZING bass player. Too bad this song doesn't showcase him much. If you want good bass by the dood tho, "Californication" is an order.
*cheers* The restrictions to see Hannibal have been changed from R to AA! In other words, I can get in to see it! Heeey, Dan, Amy, Speller, anyone? Wanna come with? I warn y'all, tho, it's been said that this movie is grotesquely violent.
Tomorrow is gonna be a very busy day. I'm going into town with my mom and brother for most of the day, then it's home for a few hours (like, two), and to the mall where I shall meet with Quinn-chan and Chris to go for our ritual Riot Ink business meeting. Then I shall return from the depths of Quinn's anime/transformers shrine of a home and return to my humble lair around midnight. Then I'll prolly talk to my baaaaybeeeeee (aka: querida) for the remainder of the dark hours of the evening.
Oh! Celeb Jeopardy! Two of my faaaaavourite doods were on there! Seth Green from various shows such as Buffy, and Steven from the Barenaked Ladies! DOOD! And Seth has his hair buzzed in sooooo damn short that he looks bald. 0_o
Kick ass! 3 Doors Down are playing at the Warehouse on March 11, and tickets are only $27... man, I wanna GOOOOO!!!
( 12:37 PM )   For Whom the Bell Tolls by Metallica Make his fight on the hill in the early day Constant chill deep inside Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey On the fight, for they are right, yes, by who's to say? For a hill men would kill, why? They do not know Suffered wounds test there their pride Men of five, still alive through the raging glow Gone insane from the pain that they surely know
For whom the bell tolls Time marches on For whom the bell tolls
Take a look to the sky just before you die It is the last time you will Blackened roar massive roar fills the crumbling sky Shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry Stranger now, are his eyes, to this mystery He hears the silence so loud Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be Now the will see what will be, blinded eyes to see
For whom the bell tolls Time marches on For whom the bell tolls
( 12:17 PM )   Okay, today's guest BMB is quite good. ^__^
*points out the window* Heehee, a mini-plow!! *giggles*
song of the moment: "Sunny Came Home" by Shawn Colvin (so sue me, I like this song... ).
( 12:08 PM )   Why is it on days that it's not supposed to snow, it snows the most? We've gotten about 13 cm since last night and it's still coming down... -_-;
song of the moment: "For Whom the Bell Tolls" by Metallica. Heeheehee....makes me think of AH. I shall post the lyrics on here later.
( 7:42 AM )   The Wheel of Excitement on Neopets loves me... I just won another 10 000 np. O_O       ( 7:35 AM )   Morning blog!
Here I am, killing time while I wait for either mom to call me or for me to call mom. Stupid morons in Wal-Mart, you call the main office and ask to be patched through to Electronics, and they put you on hold and hang up on you. Figures, it was mom's boss that just did that to me. Moron.
I got slim to no sleep last night due to sickness. Man, do I hurt... I feel like my guts are being put into a dryer's spin cycle constantly. And after drinking 3 L of cranberry juice, I'm not too good right now. I'm kinda waiting for mom to call so I can ask her what to do... I dunno if I should stay home or go to school. I bet I'm missing a fair bit. Well, there's always Fiona and Harpreet to ask. ^_^;;
I bet Dan's gonna kill me if I'm off another day. Mike's prolly beaten him up a few times by now without me there.
*drums her fingers* Mom, I asked you to phone me... you've got 10 minutes, and then I phone YOU....and hope I don't get hung up on...
Oh! BmB's on it's guest week. Y'know, with guest artists doing the panels. I'm not liking it too much. Yesterday's was a tad too blunt, with not enough joke 'ahind it. Maybe next time, I'll try for a guest spot on there. I'd be sure to do something involving Cy and Skids. I love Cy and Skids. ^__^
I'm running very low on straight kyara. Querida manages to turn them all gay! *shakes her head* Bennett, Lucas, Rukura, Sy.... who next? *turns to Tiirak* Dood, you're not gay are you? Tiirak: No way. Meg: You sure?? Tiirak: Yes, I'm sure. Meg: *looks suspicious*
Mommie bought me the Silence of the Lambs yesterday. It's such a good movie, and all the better if you've read the book. The casting for the movie is very good, too... Jodie Foster makes such a cute Clarice Starling. It really pisses me off that Julianne Moore is playing Clarice in Hannibal (which comes out tomorrow, check your local listings ^_~). She is SO not Starling material. But as long as Sir Anthony Hopkins is still good ol' Hannibal Lecter the Cannibal, I'll watch it.
*calls Mom* Wow, I got through....!!! Maybe that's because I cheated and used the associates-only code. How would I know THAT? 9.9
Looks like I get to stay home again today... *feh* Boredom and a half. Amy, if you're home, feel free to phone me or something.
Over and out!
( 10:50 PM )   Yeeeeeeeee! Querida can read my mind and alter my dreamstate!!!!
No one should have to drink 2 litres of cranberry juice in 5 hours. x_X
( 9:21 AM )   Morning blog!
I'm home sick! And it's only the 4th day of semester 2. Seems that whatever the hell was wrong with me before is wrong with me again... pain hurts, you know. T_T;
I've not much to say today... doesn't that suck when you wanna say something but you're outta' stuff to say?
OH!!! GOOD NEWS! AH Issue one is officially coming along WELL! Looks like I won't have to go to version 16... ^___^
( 9:32 PM )   Rukura and Lian... I got bored and messed around with PC Paintbrush...       ( 6:41 PM )   *looking from her cat CC to her mug of hot chocolate* CC is staring at the marshmellows like they're evil..... *inches away*       ( 6:29 PM )   The Angel Hunter church stainglass window...?       ( 4:00 PM )   Okay, I know.... I didn't blog this morning. I was running mighty late. I had to hop fences to get to school. ^_^;;;
What did I do today? Not much. I got yelled at three times and nearly booted out of my history class (why? for drawing! >.<;;), and I nearly fell asleep in comm tech. Thankfully, Mr. Dewitte let us out early.
The layouts for pages 1-4 of AH have been redone. This is version 15... and I'm LIKING it! FINALLY!
Heeey, imouto! Mercutio was the best kyara in that play. I also liked Benvolio, he was cool too (my once-best-friend Brittany took to calling me 'Volio 'cause I liked him so much). Mercutio, tho, had one hell of an attitude, and he was interesting and VERY funny. Too bad he had to die... I'm glad you liked the little snippet. Allow me to post another, just for you! ^__^ This is another bit I quite like.
Benjamin found it facinating to watch him, he was so calm and so... well, he was the very picture of freedom as far as he was concerned. Yes, that was it. Benjamin admired Lokistrant's blasé attitude towards life. Envy, almost.
When one night, Lokistrant was late on his ritual visits to the plantation, Benjamin worried. Could he have been hurt?.... no. This was Lokistrant. He didn't GET hurt. But maybe he just didn't want to see him anymore?
Abandonment. A reoccurring issue. His throat felt dry suddenly. He curled up on his bed, blond hair over his eyes, and wished for morning, when he KNEW that Lokistrant would not come. No second guessing when daylight was involved.
Minutes passed. And quite unexpectedly, Lokistrant was there, startling the boy. Leaning against the far wall, watching quietly, decked out in his usual dark reds and silvers. Benjamin sat up. "How long have you been there? You scared me!"
Lokistrant smiled his usual enigmatic smile, the impression of fangs something no longer unexpected. "Carter, deepest apologies for being so late." The smile was kind, but the voice was final, the tone stating that there was to be no questions asked. Lokistrant held out his hand to the boy. "Care to come with me into town for a while?"
( 7:45 AM )   Morning Blog, part II
Oh! I saw Cast Away over the weekend! It's SO good! Tom Hanks is a surprisingly good actor... I mean, who else can get away with talking to a volleyball so convincingly? And we all know that Amy likes to imagine him naked (Tom, not the volleyball). You should all go see it! NOW!!!! That's an order!
Heehee, now a little quote for fun from a story I am going to re-write.
Benjamin stared across the table at the stranger, worried. The man seemed in his twenties, if that, and had long brown hair that spilled over his shoulders and down his back. His eyes were an unnatural ruby red, and they were very intelligent eyes. Benjamin had learned early in life to be cautious, especially with the smarter ones.
The man crossed his hands on the table in front of him, casual. "Benjamin Carter, correct?"
Benjamin could dect a vague, though unrecognizable, accent. "Yes sir."
"You're fifteen?"
"Yes sir."
"Such a shame to see someone so young forced into... what you're familiar with."
Benjamin sunk down in his chair. "Why are you here? Why did you pull me away from papa?"
To match Benjamin's withdraw from the table, the man leaned forward, and smiled. Benjamin could have sworn he saw fangs. "You remind me of someone."
( 7:22 AM )   Morning blog!
Man, do I feel WEIRD this morning. I'm not sure why, exactly, but I just feel weird. I dunno. I think a certain spiritie dood slept in my bed with me last night.... *points at Bennett* 'Cause I actually slept.
Last night, during a particularly good RP, my ISP died and wouldn't let me back on. I wasn't happy. It was getting SO good, too... *pouts*
I'm so quickly out of things to say.... ^____^;;
O'er an' out!
( 11:17 AM )   Meg's random contemplations I'm considering re-writing Carter's story, which ties in with a fair bit of Lucas' story. Been considering it for a while... Carter's got some serious problems, and he's fun to write because he's so screwed up. He's got a really weird past. His dad was SUCH a jerk.... and up until becoming a vampire, Carter was good little Bennie; never had the nerve to fight his father. *ponders* It's an interesting story. Maybe I'll start on it again after I get home from seeing Cast Away....       ( 10:56 PM )   Okay, people, special announcement!!!!!!! Congrats to Bennett and niichan on the birth of their daughter, Candra Arael Bennett! ^___^       ( 3:32 PM )   Woohoo! I got switched from Casement's class to Apostolou's class! Hooray!!! And I am already SO ahead of all the people in my comm tech class. I seem to be the only one who knows how to use Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Publisher, and Premier, as well as Quark and a few other programs. Damn, am I ahead. *_*       ( 7:36 AM )   Morning blog!
Wow, I only slept 3 hours and I feel okay.... *falls out of her chair laughing at today's BmB* Cy and Skids are a riot! I hope they do turn out as a couple! *laughing*
New semester starts today. I'm not too happy about this, as I have history and math this semester, and history is my homeroom class. With Mr. Casement. *cries* NOOOO!!! If I get called by my last name ONCE in his class, I'm gonna commit suicide (okay, not really).
My room is now a nice shrine of large wall hangings. On the walls around my bed, I have three Card Captor Sakura wallscrolls (two anime, one manga), and one kick-ASS Prozzak Saturday People promo poster. Thank you, John. *smilesmilesmile*
On Neopets, I am neopoor. Looks like my pets are gonna be eating at the soup kitchen a lot. -_-;
Meg's Art Corner! I know, I've not done much in the way of art lately. You know what's weird? I tend to draw more in school than at home. I think it's because I'm around so many people. Cam's SD Panther form, doodled in MS Paint. I was bored, okay? And it DID turn out cute. Part of my MS Paint family portrait. I still have to finish the pictures for John and Dani, and the kids too if I have enough willpower after screwing around with the stupid program afterwards.
Song of the moment: "When Doves Cry (Fatboy Slim remix) by Depeche Mode and Prince. I love this... don't ask me why. ^_^;
Quote of the moment: "Listen sister, if I want your opinion, I'll BEAT it out of you!" -- Elvira, Mistress of the Dark
Okay, that's it for now. Ja matta ne! *disappears in purple smoke*
( 12:38 PM )   Song of the moment: "Misere by Andrea Bocelli and John Miles. I have a very....expansive taste in music. So sue me. *sings along*       ( 11:45 AM )   To Chris-kun: Dooood, I don't hate you, and I'm not mad at you..... jus' chill, man. S'your blog, you can say what's on your mind...
I got my pretty pretty new cladagh ring in the mail yesterday! *kisses said ring* Mi querida gave it to me!! Isn't that sweet? ^__^
I have come to the conclusion that Cam would make a really scary bad guy. Like, not c3... but if CAM were bad. He'd be scary. I mean, he's already got some issues with where his loyalty lies... and he's pretty much infinite in power. Not to mention, after being killed about 200 times, I think he knows the painful ways to kill people. Wonder if niichan (currently my neechan) sees this? Well, at least now he knows about Cam's possibilities for becoming nothing more than a lethal weapon.
I have three neopets! My blue wocky named Cadence, my green shoyru named Lokistrant, and my yellow eyrie Poyania! ^__^
"My December" is © Linkin Park. The art is mine. Don't take. Information on the layout is thus; this is Damien McKinnley, a character of mine whom I've been roleplaying for a little over a year now. He's Simon McKinnley's oldest child, and he's kinda angsty and depressive. Art done in paintchat and added some snow in Photoshop.

[TRANSLATION] DIG-ROCK HOUND ROAR vol. 1 - Track 06
Tumblr media
Track 6: Until now and in the future
Kasuga: Yes, as you've seen, HOUND ROAR is still up and down, but each member's stance towards the band is gradually becoming clearer. Thanks to that, there haven't been any sudden disbandment?! or late-night fights?! … It seems like nothing of the sort has happened, and as a manager, I'm relieved for now. It seems that hard work pays off~ Dealing with the police, handling aftermath, changing Shion's house keys, and somehow managing both sides' schedules… Well, it's a routine, but I do it well every time~ Anyway, believing in HOUND ROAR's music and potential, I reluctantly put in a lot of effort and will continue to do so in the future. Leaving that aside, regarding Shion's situation, it might have sounded like I smoothly resolved everything, but that's not the case~ Even though the order got a bit mixed up, let me supplement that part while conveying the flow leading to the successful release of the new song~ However, the details and everything else will remain a secret from now on~ If my revealed secrets get exposed, I'll get scolded by everyone. Please understand and keep it confidential~
Kasuga: Hey~ Shoma… Shoma: …What? Kasuga: How long do you plan to hide in a place like this? Shoma: W-Well, Haru-chan said it was okay for me to go! Kasuga: No, that's not… Huh? This is… Shion wasn't deluShional. Shoma: …! Kasuga: Ah, this guy… Shoma! (run forward)
Shoma:Um… Excuse me! Megane- I mean Shion, you areShion's mom, right?! I'm Endo Shoma! I play guitar in HOUND ROAR! Since I'm in the same band as Shion… So… I… He's okay in many ways! Can you please just let him be…? But, his piano skills… it’s incredibly amazing! I may not know much about classical music, but in a band, finding someone who can play such fantastic keys is truly exceptional! He's definitely talented!! As for HOUND ROAR, it feels like we are going to do something really big! Regarding his health, we'll make sure not to push him too hard…! So… Please let us take care of him!!! Kasuga: Ohhh… What a great speech… I should have recorded it. (Approach) Kasuga: Oh, hello~ I'm Kasuga from Renown Stage. Actually, I have some important things to discuss… Could you spare some time?
Shoma: Ah, seriously, how much longer do we have to wait? Even if we play the full new song, it won't take much time to edit. Sogo: The broadcast probably has a lot of participants. There might be various reasons. Hibiki: More than that, why does it always get scheduled on RUBI Radio broadcast days? If this continues, it seems like there's only malicious intent towards me and RUBIA Leopard.. Toya: I didn't decide on that. If you have complaints, talk to Haru-chan. Shoma: Even if we say something, it'll just be ignored. Hibiki: (Sigh) Should I go home quietly? Sogo: Wait, wait. Hibiki: Well, there's something I'd like to ask. Shion. Shion: Huh? Me? Hibiki: Can I try curling the tips of your hair near your face with a curling iron? Shion: Huh? Hibiki: Is it okay? Shion doesn't seem to insist on a particular hairstyle. Shoma: Why did the conversation about RUBIA Leoapard suddenly turn into a discusShion about hair? Hibiki: I have nothing to do, and I'm starting to feel like going home. Toya: Shion, let him touch your him. If he going home, things will get complicated.
Hibiki: Why is Toya giving orders? I'm asking Shion for a favor. Shion: It's fine; do as you please, fool. Hibiki: … Thanks. Shoma: …Hey, what's that? Hibiki: The curling iron. Shoma: Why are you carrying it around? Hibiki: It's small, rechargeable, and lightweight. Endo, do you want to try? Shoma: No, I don't want to use it. But weren't you working as a hairdresser because you liked it? Hibiki: Not at all. I just thought I wouldn't go hungry if I had a job. Sogo: What a realist~ Shoma: Weirdo. Hibiki: Shion, sit here. Shion: (sigh) Hibiki: I've been thinking… Shion, you have nice hair. Shion: I didn't do anything special. Hibiki: Maybe a little braiding at the ends like Masiro from RUBIA Leoaprd would suit you. Shion: Stop doing useless things. Hibiki: Not today. Yeah. Okay, looks good. Sogo: Hee~ Even with a little touch, it changes quite refreshingly. Shoma: Kouno, help me dye my bridge next time. Hibiki: Sure thing. Shion, your complexion looks good today. Shoma: It turns light blue before the live broadcast, right? Shion: Shut up. If I go out, I can do whatever I want. Toya: Don't mess up during the live broadcast. We rejected offers for streaming and lip-sync. Shion: It's okay. It’s more manageable than doing an air piano, I guess. Shoma: It feels like I'm hearing some nonsense. Sogo: There are various artists, so it might be a safe option. Toya: Estimating skills low is a bonus. It makes exceeding expectations easy, and the evaluations go up for sure. Kasuga: Everyone, get ready. Are you all prepared? Toya: Of course. Shoma: Is it finally time? Hibiki: Haah… Let's finish quickly and go. Sogo: That sounds good. Shion: Um, Toya-san. I apologize for various things this time. I promise I won't miss any practice again. Toya: Shoma mentioned it too, but if anything interferes with your work, tell Haru-chan. He'll handle most things. Shion: Yes. And thank you very much for including me in HOUND ROAR. Toya: Haru-chan the one who brought you in. Shion: I'm grateful to Kasuga-san, of course, but the deciShion was made by Toya-san, right? I was scared until I joined HOUND ROAR. Admitting that I lacked talent in piano felt like acknowledging that my life had been in vain until now. It's not just me; my family couldn't bring themselves to say "let's stop" either. However, after hearing MEO's song, I felt the desire to play the piano again. I consider it fortunate to have a new place under the guidance of the genius I admire. Remembering that I genuinely enjoy playing the piano, I'm thankful for that. Toya: I'm not a genius. I'm just doing what I can with effort. Shion: That's not true, Toya-san… Toya: If you want me to say I'm a genius, prove it yourself. Show that you can do it better than anyone else and truly create my conducting. Shion: Yes! I'll do that!…
Toya: …. Sogo: Shion hear your words the most. Toya: Don't eavesdrop. Sogo: I feel the same as Shion. I'm grateful for joining HOUND ROAR. Toya: Yours is completely different from Shion's. Sogo: Don't leave me out~ It makes me feel lonely. Toya: You can go wherever you want if you have a place… Do as you wish. Even without a band, even without music, you can still live. Sogo: But you like my drum, right? Toya: If it wasn't for that, I would've cut ties with you long ago. Sogo: I admire you, Toya. I really do. You may be in despair about your talent, but it's not something to be pessimistic about. You're a genius who can work harder than anyone else.
**
Staff: Alright then, HOUND ROAR, please stand by. HOUND ROAR: Please take care of us! Staff: Yes! Staff: Camera 1, okay. Staff: Cameras 2 and 3, okay. Staff: How about the drums and keyboard positions? Shion: It's fine! Sogo: No issues here too. Staff: Thank you. Staff: Oh, sorry, Hibiki-san, could you take one step to the right? (takea step) Yes, thank you! Hibiki: Haah… I wonder what Akane always feels doing this. Shoma: What nonsense is he muttering again? Hibiki: It's unreasonable for vocals to always stand in the center. Toya: Vocals are the face of the band. Give up. Hibiki: How about you stand in the center… you're the leader. Staff: The leader of HOUND ROAR is Toya-san. Toya: Yes. Just a name for miscellaneous tasks. Shoma: YO say it without shame. Staff: So, is the band name also Toya-san's deciShion? HOUND ROAR is a cool name~ Toya: Well… Hibiki: It doesn't have a deep meaning. The dog I used to raise was a bloodhound, and its name was Roar. Shoma: EH? Is that so? Toya: Like a hunting dog that clings on and doesn't let go, capturing the hearts of those who listen. It suits that image. Staff: Indeed… We'll ask for that story during the talk later. I'm sure our viewers will be pleased to hear it. Toya: Understood. Shoma: What's this? Am I the only one who doesn't know too much? Oh, right, Toya. Toya: Why? Shoma: I feel like having some fun today. Toya: What are you talking about? Shoma: Obviously about guitars! Toya: You're not planning to add an ad-lib, are you? Why didn't you say anything during the meeting? Why bring it up now? Shoma: Hehe! If I say it now, you won't have a chance to refuse, right? Toya: Huh? Hibiki: Just so you know, I won't stop singing no matter what happens. Toya: Wait a moment, Staff: 5 seconds to go! We have a message and a title from Hibiki-san. Next, please continue with the song. Hibiki: Understood. Shoma: Well, it's not a live broadcast, right? If it fails, we can do a retake?
Toya: Damn it, these guys, they're both violently boosting their talents. Shoma: Haha! Nice expresShion. You can make expresShions other than the sarcastic one. Staff: Well then, let's start the main broadcast! Hibiki: Endo, calm down. If Toya causes trouble, Shion will panic, and then his hands will stop. Shoma: Ah, that's right. Sorry, sorry. Toya: Just remember this, all of you… Staff: Entering the main broadcast! 9, 8, 7, 6, 5 seconds to go! 4, 3, 2… Hibiki: Watch, Master. We're going to expose everything we have, so accept it. Swallow it all. Got it?
HOUND ROAR – Eyes.

[Translation] DIG-ROCK 1st LIVE -FLASH- backstage conversations - HOUND ROAR & RUBIA Leopard
Tumblr media
Shoma: It was so refreshing!! .....Oi megane? Shion: .....I feel sick Shoma: But you played like you were fine today! ... God,can’t be helped. Shoma: Sogo-san! I'm taking this Megane to the Aid room! Sogo: Got it! I'll clean up over here. Call me if anything happens. Shoma: Thanks! Shion: I'm sorry.... Toya: You're not going with them? Sogo: It will be alright, I have to take my drum apart too, and they getting along pretty well. Toya: I see .... Sogo: ? Sogo: What? You're in daze. Are you feel sick too? Toya: It's opposite Sogo: opposite? Toya: I could still perform. I want be on stage more. Sogo: Hee—It's rare that you're not tense after a stage. Toya: Tense... Sogo: Usually you're mumbling, 'I should have done that better', 'I should have done this'. Toya: I see..... Sogo: You're not going to say something like that today? Toya: It's not that. But reflection and regret can come later. That's what I feel now. Haiji: Umm....sorry to interrupt.. Toya: You are... Sogo: Aren't you Haiji-kun? Haiji: It's been a while Sogo-san. Sogo: Sorry, I'll hurry up and clear out. Just give me a minute. Haiji: Eh? Is just the two of you here? Toya: One member was sick and went to the first aid room. Kurono: That's seem tough. Let me help. Toya: Thankyou, but it's fine don't mind us. Kurono: As we all share the same stage, don't hold back. Mashiro: I mean, if Hauro doesn't clear out, we can't get in. Haiji: Mashiro-san! Sogo: Thanks, then, I will accept your kind offer. Mashiro: Forget about that. Just get your hands to work over there. Sogo: Ouch, Okay. Haiji: Cable over here, done! Kurono: It looks fine.  I think I can move the keyboard with this. Sogo: Oh, thank you. I'll take care of the rest. Hey, Toya. Haiji: Eh— I'll help. Toya: it's fine, your kindness is enough. Haiji: But— Toya: Now you need to concentrate on your turn. We need Rubire to be in the throne for a while longer. Mashiro: Hee— Toya: Otherwise, the impact when Hauro overtakes Rubire will be small. Mashiro: You heard that? Kurono: Well, if that's the case, then I'll stop helping you here. Haiji: I understand. . Sogo: ... I'm surprised. You're going to overtake Rubire? Seriously? Toya: You have problems with that? Sogo: No, but I don't think you'd come with something big. Toya: That's right. But, with the current Hauro I'm sure we can do it. I look forward to your performance. See you then.
Mashiro: .... what's with that confident face.. Kurono: Just get on with setting yourself up. You're late coming in the first place. Where were you and what were you doing! Mashiro: Ah .. Do you even bother to ask that?. Kurono: Ah. You went smoking again. Mashiro: I was smoking and watching for them to clear out. But they wouldn't move. Haiji: Mashiro-san, you're don't really like  Hauro member, right? Mashiro: Not really. But it's definitely the faces I don't want to see. Haiji: But I was really fired up by that exchange! Kurono: Me too. I won't give up my throne so easily. Mashiro: Well, we should make them regret they had to play against us.

[Translation] DIG-ROCK Christmas Short Story - with HOUND ROAR
Tumblr media
"Mituru. Where are you right now?"
Before receiving a response from my younger brother, cheerful voices jumped into my ears.
(Perhaps he's out drinking with someone.)
I have no intention of lecturing. After all, my brother is already an adult. Moreover, it's Christmas Eve today. It's natural for him to go out and have a drink with someone in the evening. Yet,
(Mitsuru, drinking…?) The image from his underage days still lingers.
I know. Mitsuru is already an adult. It’s different from the time when he was looking forward to Christmas cake once a year.
(Even though I used to be afraid and avoided him for years.)
There are still some unresolved issues between us. However,
(What if he's alone?)
As soon as I relaxed a bit, I found myself putting on the older brother act. But then suddenly, it became embarrassingly awkward.
"No, it's not something urgent. But, contact Mom soon. She's been worried. ...Well then."
I unilaterally hung up after rushing him. I put my smartphone on the table as if throwing it.
(Well, it's fine. If he's not lonely, that's good.)
Thinking that, I smiled wryly.
(I'm the one who's alone.)
After realising "EGOIST," Hauro's schedule had a noticeable gap. While Kasuga seemed to be running around here and there, when asked, he would only say, "I'll let you know when it gets a bit more specific," and I didn't know the details. Meanwhile, contracted work surged in a year-end rush, and as I diligently handled it, all the year-end work was neatly completed.
(It's been a while since I've been idle like this.)
I've been hectically working as if urged on.
(Despite not having a musical talent,) the voice inside me that whispers such thoughts is frightening. I'm afraid that if I come to my senses, I won't be able to do anything, and I wanted to forget. If I accumulate small praises, my mind will be distracted—.
"……A phone call?"
The name "Endo Shoma" is jumping on the trembling screen of the smartphone on the desk.
"Oh, Hello, Toya. Do you have Magane’s key In your place?"
"The key? His house key?"
I've already gotten used to sudden calls that start before I can bring up the topic.
"Hey, idiot, cut it out!"
"What's your problem! I'm just calling because you can't ask Toya about that, you moron. Be grateful, idiot."
"Who the hell asked you, you damn yankee!"
"Oh, wait, Kouno! Give it back!"
After a while, a calm and composed voice from Hibiki said, "Shion can't find the key of his house."
"I called Sogo earlier to check inside the car, but it wasn't there. Maybe when we stopped by Toya's house during practice in the afternoon."
"I'll look for it. If I can't find it, I'll also contact the studio."
"Thanks. Also, can I come over later today?"
"I'm coming too! I'm coming!"
"Cut it out, idiot!"
"Why?"
"Because it's a nuisance, obviously!"
“Ugh, but Toya might have the key house. And it’s cold standing in the hallway of the apartment building. I don’t want to.”
“I don’t mind if you come over.”
“Toya said it’s okay.”
“I’m sorry, really sorry...”
“I’ll be there in about twenty minutes. See you later.”
The phone was hung up on me.
(Those guys.)
I couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
“What are they doing? They’re such idiots.”
Of all times, they had to lose the key on Christmas Eve.
And they just barge into my house without even asking if I’m free.
On top of that, my room is a mess because of the end-of-year rush, and I only have twenty minutes left.
(This Christmas)
There’s nothing funny about it. But once I started laughing, I couldn’t stop, and tears started streaming down my face.
(When Christmas is over, a new year will come.)
I still don’t know anything about the future. But I’m not worried or scared. I’m not afraid of the passage of time.
“Jeez. Oh well.”
I chuckled at my own words and reached for my phone.
I don’t know anything, but I’m sure next year will be the same――that’s what I thought as I made the call.
“Hello, Sogo. Want to come over to my place now?”`

[TRANSLATION] DIG-ROCK HOUND ROAR vol. 1 - Track 05
Tumblr media
Track 5: A matter of course
Shion: (sighs) What am I doing? I've been rolling around in Sogo's room for how long? Darn it… Boasting that living alone is no big deal, and here I am. Even spouting useless words to Yankee… In the end, if I don't rely on someone, I can't go on, and I can't even play the piano at all… Seriously, I feel like I have no worth. (Door opens) Sogo: I’m back. Shion: Sogo-san? Oh he’s back? Sogo: Are you up, Shion? Shion: ..Welcome back. Sogo Oh…! Your complexion has improved quite a bit. Shion: These days, I've been sleeping really well. Sogo: That's a relief. Oh, I'm going to make some food, so come out later and let's eat together.
**
Sogo: Oh, you’re here, Shion. Yes. …? …?! Toya: What's with that expresShion? Shion: Toya-san…?! Toya: Is it inconvenient for me to be here? Shion: No…! I mean, not at all… Toya: Don't just stand there; sit down quickly. Shion: …Yes. Toya: ..Shion. Shion: ?! Yes? Toya: Where are your glasses? Shion Huh? Oh, I left them by the pillow,. Toya: …Hm. In this distance, can you see my fingers properly? Shion: The shape is roughly discernible. Toya: You manage to walk around the house with that eyesight? Shion: Roughly, by feeling… Toya: How's your condition? Shion: Well… now it's quite… what should I say… Toya: …You. Can't you talk a bit more normally? Shion …! I'm sorry… Sogo : Alright! It's done! How about it? Looks delicious? Toya: Pretending to be so skilled just by stir-frying some vegetables. Sogo: Look carefully. Today, I added pork and eggs along with garlic chives and mung bean sprouts. And speaking of that, try stir-frying vegetables at least once by yourself. Shion, this guy here~ If I left him alone, he will forget to eat, so I have to forcibly bring him here sometimes. Shion: Yes… Toya: I didn’t forget it. It'sjust about a priorities. Sogo: Put the priority of meals above work… Ah, you can start eating first! the rice is not fully cooked. It should be ready in about 5 minutes. Toya: So, until when are you going to stick around Sogo's place? Shion: I'm sorry… Toya: That's not an answer. Shion: I'm sorry… Toya … I want to practice as soon a possible.. Shion: I'm truly sorry… Well, um… Toya: When do you think you can play? A week? Or maybe a month? Shion: Huh? A month… but… Toya: I made a song considering your piano. It can’t be complete without you. If you say you can't do it, I have no choice but to wait until you say you can. Shion: Toya-san… Toya: Recording without hearing the finished sound is out of the question. It was a rush during ROAR because if we missed it, we might not catch Hibiki, but that's an exception. I won't do it again. Sogo: That’s what he said…because Toya insisted, we had a hard time for a whole day. Even though the schedule was already confirmed… Toya: What he decide to do without talking to me is none of my business.. Originally, it was Haru-chan idea to include Shion. He should take some responsibility. Shion: Kasuga-san recommended me? Toya: Yes, he brought your demo, insisting to add a keyboard to create a different characteristic from other rock bands. He was incredibly persistent. Sogo: But ultimately, Toya made the final deciShion, right? Toya: Of course. If the results didn't seem promising, even if he insisted that much, I would have rejected it. So, Shion, what's the problem now? Your physical condition? Or is it something about your household situation? Shion: Excuse me… Can I continue playing Toya-san's song in the future? Toya: If you utter such sleep-talking-like words, I might want fire you right now.. Shion: I don't want that!! Toya: When can you play? Shion: I can play today or tomorrow! Toya: I don't want to entrust a precious new song to a pianist who took a 3-day break. Can you adjust it within a week? Shion: I can do it! Shoma: Excuse me-! Sogo: Oh, Shoma. How was it? Shoma: It's perfect! …Wait, Toya, were you here too? Such a rare view.
Toya: …I’m going home. Shoma: Oh, is that so? Hey, megane. I'll give you this. Shion: …? A key? Shoma: Your house key. A new one made by Haru-chan. Shion: Huh?! Shoma: I convinced your mom! Haruto only has the spare key. Now you can go home, right? Shion: You… just decided on your own! And how did you…?! Shoma: Got it. If anything troublesome happens later, just hand it over to Haru-chan!. …Listen well. All you need to do is play the keyboard without bothering with this and that. I'm telling you, if I don't continue with the HOUND ROAR for at least six months, I have no face to show to the Sogo-san who recommended me. Got it? If you're being a hindrance, I'll kick you out?! Sogo: Is the reason Shoma continues with HOUND ROAR because of me? Shoma: That's the main reason! Toya: More importantly, why six months? Shoma: I've never stayed in the same band for more than six months, so I'm aiming for the longest record! Toya: Seriously, I'm getting sick of this… I regret asking. Shoma: It's about making an effort. Be grateful and said Thank you. Sogo: Oh, the rice is ready. Toya: Well then, I'm going back to work. Sogo: Hold on, hold on, what about the food?! Toya: I don’t need it. I'll eat something outside. Sogo: …Sigh. I insisted on making the rice because he likes Japanese cuisine. Can't be helped. Shion, Shoma, take responsibility and eat Toya's portion too. Shoma: Yes! Why are you crying, darn megane. Shion: I’m not crying! Shoma: Oh~ is that so? Shion: …Thanks for this. Shoma: No biggies. More importantly, you, don't quit playing the keys. Shion: I won't quit, fool. Shoma: Ah, that's right!
(phone ringing)
Hibiki: Toya, did you encourage Shion well? Toya: I said what needed to be said. I don't know if the encouragement worked. Hibiki: I said it yesterday too, but if Shion quit. I'll quit HOUND ROAR as well. Toya: Since you said that, I intentionally went to Sogo's place. Even so, well, you attitude has changed quite a bit. Hibiki: …What do you mean? Toya: The way you speaks sounds you don't want to quit HOUND ROAR. Hibiki: What's with that tone after bringing me here forcibly? And just so you know, I'm not hiding about my dad. It's the other side that's keeping things hidden. Toya: That might be the case. However, you don't want to be interrogated either, do you? Hibiki: Of course. Your approach is genuinely annoying. Throwing a fit at people, and even naming the band HOUND ROAR, it implies that you've investigated various things about me, right? Toya: That’s right, Because I want you no matter what. Hibiki: It's really the worst. At best, becoming desperate for something that makes noise, getting manipulated, and why does everyone not realize it's foolish? Even Shion, suffering so much, it's because of music. Toya; Then, will you quit HOUND ROAR right now? Hibiki: I won’t do as you want again, Once I started, it's meaningless unless I can perfectly achieve it to the point of destroying that person. Besides, I'm currently unemployed, so unless I save enough to live a carefree life for a while, even if I want to quit, I can't. It's all your fault for bringing up Akane's name. It triggered me instantly. Toya: Your pretentious tone, no matter how many times I hear it, it's tiring. Hibiki: Me too, Toya. Your attempt to evade the straightforward talk is exhausting and annoying to listen to. …And yes, I almost forgot to mention, Mitsuru was really worried. Toya: Why.. are you and Mitsuru..? Hibiki: While it's a bit much for me to butt into someone else's family matters, couldn't you at least contact him? If you don’t hate Mitsuru. Well then. Toya: That guy…
(footstep sounds)
Toya: It would be easy if I could hate him.

[TRANSLATION] DIG-ROCK HOUND ROAR vol. 1 - Track 02
Tumblr media
Track 2: Things I don’t know.
Kasuga: Oh~ Thank you. You've worked hard today as well. Staff: No, no, we're relieved that it ended safely. Oh, that's right, Kasuga-san. Are you available for a short time after this? It's about the schedule. Kasuga: Yes, yes, of course. You guys can go first. Good job. Sogo: I came by car… Does anyone need a ride? Shoma: Yes, Thankyou very much! Shion: Please. Shoma: Are you coming too, megane? Shion: If you're not happy about it, then go home walk. Shoma: What?! Is it your car? Sogo: Shion has a keyboard. Hibiki: How heavy is an 88-keys keyboard? Shion: According to the spes, it's around 16 kilograms. Shoma: It was that heavy? Sogo: I stopped by on my way there to pick it up. Hibiki: If you're going to Shion's house, I'll join. Shion: Why…? Hibiki: I want to see your house. Shoma: I want to take a look too! Shion:There's nothing to see, don't come! Sogo: Great. If you both come along, can you help me move the keyboard? Shion: Sogo-san…! Shoma: I'll do it! Let me do it! Sogo: It will be a problem if it’s drop.. Shion: But… I should be the one… Sogo: We managed somehow in the morning, but Shion has to open the manShion entrance and the door, so it's safer to get help.
Shion: That's… well… Shoma: If you understand, just honestly ask for help. Shion: If you break it, I'll kill you. Sogo: Don't say scary things. What about Toya? Shoma: With all the instruments… Isn't it too much for everyone to ride? Toya: Don't worry. I have something to do after this, so I won't ride. Hibiki: Is that something related to HOUND ROAR or Meo? Toya: ….. Shion: Hey, Hibiki! Shoma: Meo? What's that? Hibiki: So, which one? Shion: It doesn't matter which one. Nothing special. Hibiki: It doesn't matter which one, but there's no reason to hide it, right? Unless there's a reason not to ask? Kasuga: Oh you’re all still here? I said you guys can go first. Shoma: Haru-chan! What's Meo? Kasuga: It's another alias used by Toya. Shoma: Another alias…? What's that? Toya: I'm working on something related to sound. Kasuga: He's been working with us for quite some time. Didn't I mention it? Shoma: I didn't know! Toya: I didn't have any intention to hide it. Hibiki: We also… didn't ask? Toya: Yeah. If you have something you're curious about, I'll answer. Shoma: It doesn't matter what Toya does outside… Kasuga: Ah, since Toya hasn't officially announced Meo yet, keep it a secret for now. Toya: Well then, I'll go now.
(Lift open)
Sogo: Alright, Shoma. Let's go. Shoma: Yep! Hibiki: Hee—Shion’s mansion has thorough security. Shion: Where do you live? Hibiki: Um… at least the door properly locked. Shion: isn’t it the worst? Hibiki: I didn't receive a high salary. Shion: An office worker huh…? After quitting, what are you going to do? Go back to your family home? Hibiki: Nope. I have some savings. If that runs out… I might freeload at Shion's place or Sogo's. Shion: Don't decide things on your own. Hibiki: If HOUND ROAR doesn't sell well, I might become a makeup artist. I'll make connections in the field during this time… Shion: Don't say ominous things, idiot. (Phone ringing) Shion: Huh? Hibiki: Answer the phone. I'll take care of the mail and flyers. Give it to me. (Phone ringing) Shion: … Hibiki: Hmm? Aren't you going to answer? Shion: I won’t answer it. Hibiki: Hmm. Sogo: Be careful at the entrance; there's a step! Shoma: Ah, wait! Shoes! Sogo: Let's go slowly. Shoma: Got it! Shion: Sogo-san, just leave them around there. Hibiki: Excuse me. Sogo: Phew… Is it okay to leave them here? Shion: Yes. Thank you! Shoma: You should thank me too! Shion: I never asked Yankee for a favor. Shoma: Huh?! Sogo: Ah, this. It's better to take it out before completely placing it inside. Shion: Thank you. I'll take care of the rest. Hibiki: Shion, I'll leave the mail and flyers here. Shoma: Oh, what are you looking at, Kouno? Hibiki: Hmm… An announcement from the management company. Shoma: Beware of suspicious people… Hibiki: They're kind. Sending things like this on purpose. Shoma: I guess megane living in a pretty good place.. Hibiki: Yeah. The room is a bit plain, though. Shoma: He just moved in, perhaps? But no boxes around. Shion: Hey! Don't scrutinize my room like that! Shoma: Isn't it fine? We’re just looking. Shion: If you open it, I'll hit you. Shoma: Just do it if you can! Hibiki: Huh? Shion, what's this? It looks like food. Should we put it in the fridge? Shion: …! Hibiki: Oh? Shion: …!!! Shoma: Wait… Why are you throwing it away? Hibiki: Shion…? Shion: Everyone, please leave! Shoma: Huh…? What's going on suddenly? Shion: Just leave! Sogo: What's wrong? Shion: Sogo-san, today is enough. I'm sorry. Sogo: … Alright. Then, we'll leave. Shoma: Sogo-san…!!! Sogo: Take care. Shoma: Wait, Sogo-san! Hibiki: Shion, see you later.. Shion: … Sigh… Damn…
(Phone ringing)
Shion: Just cut it out. ___
Shoma: Thanks for the ride! Sogo: Is it okay to drop both of you here? Shoma: My house is nearby! Hibiki: Seems close to the station. Thanks for the ride. Sogo: …Be careful on your way! Shoma: Yep! Shoma: I'll drop you off at the station. Hibiki: Huh? It's fine, no need to do it on purpose. Shoma: Fool, just say thank you. Hibiki: Thank you. Shoma: Wow… so soulless. Hibiki: It is just you. So, which way to the station? Shoma: Look, you don't even know the way! Hibiki: If Endo weren't here, I would've use a map. Shoma: Instead of a map, huh! This way. Hibiki: Is Endo doesn’t planning to leave home? Shoma: Not yet. If I make a lot of money with HOUND ROAR, I'll live on my own. Hibiki: (chuckles) ..Ah, Right. Will you come to my place? Shoma: I’d love to! Then how about we go right now? Hibiki: Huh? That's a bit… Shoma: Why? Do you have some naughty books or something? I don't care about that! Hibiki: Endo… Sometimes you acts like he has no sense of personal space. Shoma: But you lied to me. Hibiki: …Sorry. Shoma: I'll count that as the first one. Hibiki: Huh?… If we come to your place, will you give us a discount, like 10 times? Shoma: Will that even work? You should say it 100 times, 100 times! Hibiki: Alright, I'll do it properly. Sorry. The second one now. Shoma: This sorry has a different meaning! Hibiki: The criteria for counting is more strict than I thought… Shoma: …Well, me… I don't know much about Kouno after graduating from high school. We didn't stick together in high school either. Even if the university talk was a lie, it doesn't change anything… Lying is just not funny. Hibiki: …Sorry. Shoma: The third one… Hibiki: Ah, so you're counting this as the third one. Shoma: Can't be helped, I'll take it easy. By the way, about Toya, it doesn't matter what he does, and Megane, wherever he lives or no matter how introvert he is have nothing to do with the band, right? Hibiki: That's right. Shoma: Sogo-san probably doesn't know where my house is. I didn't plan to hide it, but there was no need to say, "Come to our house to drink" either… …But, if you think about it, not knowing anything is a bit strange. Hibiki: A bit? Shoma: Well… I kind of like HOUND ROAR's sound. It’s not bad, and playing with Sogo-san is enjoyable. And you're here too? Having a keyboard in a band is also a first time for me… Well, it feels refreshing… Not bad, I guess? Hibiki: That, how about tell that to Shion? Shoma: Even if I tell him, he'll probably make a sour face and say, "Huh?!" Hibiki: Maybe…. he will. Shoma: Why? There's something uneasy about it… Especially Megane! Why does he always seem to trip me up? Hibiki: (laughs) Shoma: …Why? Hibiki: That's… Probably because Endo is a good person.

[TRANSLATION] SOGO BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION SHORT STORY(SS)🎉🎂
Tumblr media
Late at night, Sogo stealthily left the living room, taking careful steps.
As I slid on my shoes by the entrance, I glanced over my shoulder. Empty beer cans lined up, a plate with half-eaten snacks, and the three of them, Shoma, Hibiki, and Shion, sprawled out in various sleeping positions.
(They're asleep, good.)
Stepping into the yard, Ricky, the Labrador Retriever, immediately perked up and stood. With a quick gesture of "stay," Ricky understood my intention and obediently squatted down.
"Good boy, Ricky."
I stroked the dog, and Ricky responded with narrowed eyes and a wagging tail.
(I wish humans could understand as easily as Ricky does.)
I attached a leash to Ricky's collar and walked quietly, trying to avoid making any noise. Leaving the yard and stepping outside, The neighborhood, filled with houses, was quiet, and there wasn't a single person on the streets. Normally, our walks were part of their morning routine. However, despite being well into the season of autumn on the calendar, the feeling of summer still lingered heavily, making daytime walks quite uncomfortable.
(It's lucky everyone's asleep.)
If I mentioned taking the dog for a walk, they might insist on joining. Especially Shoma. Having to walk alongside a cheerful drunkard on the streets at night was quite foreseeable. Hibiki and Shion might even tag along, saying they're going to the nearby convenience store.
(Ugh… what a hassle.)
I put on a slightly amicable expression, and Ricky immediately stuck close.
(It's suffocating, really.)
Lately, especially…
"…………Huh?"
Suddenly, my phone in my back pocket vibrated.
The name displayed on the screen was "Toya."
"Why are you calling at this hour?"
Ignoring the drowsy greeting, I listened and the short phrase bounced back, "Where are you right now?"
"Just around my neighborhood. What do you want?" "Am I not allowed to call you for no reason?" "it's fine, but you said you'd be in the studio until late today, and you don't like staying up late."
"Well, yeah. So, where are you?"
"I went near the park and turned back around."
"Isn't this the time for Ricky's walk? Do you want to let him play in the park?"
"Even at this time, it's too hot. If I make him exercise too hard, he might overheat."
"He…"
Even though I was just complaining about the heat, I sensed a subtle laugh on the other end of the line.
"You're kind to dogs, huh?" "Oi, oi. I'm kind to everyone. You know?" "Are you in position to say that? By the way, why did you decide to get a dog again?"
"Why, huh? That…Oh, hey, stop that!"
Ricky barked once and suddenly started running.
As I ran after him, shouting "stop," he didn't look back. However, from the direction and his pace, I could tell he was heading back home.
(Oh well.)
It's not a big distance. It seems easier to go along with him than to hinder his movement.
Once I'm back, I'll take a shower right away.
"Oh crap!!"
A massive voice, completely out of place in the late-night residential area, resounded.
Suddenly, Ricky surged forward, gaining speed and causing the leash to slip through my hand.
"Hey, Ricky!"
"Whoa! Wait, wait!! Hey, stop!!" "Your voice is too loud, do you even know what time it is?" "Shoma, Toya. What are you guys doing? In a place like this?"
"Seriously. I thought we could buy a little more time." Touya said that, tossing his smartphone into his bag.
"Ricky is way smarter than you. Did he hear the taxi in front of the house or did he figure it out in various ways?" "? Anyway, what's up with you, calling at this hour?" "Idiot, don't mess around like that! Ricky, sit!!" "Buying time? What the hell are you talking about?" "Shut up, you damn Yankee!" "Oh, it's Sogo. Welcome back." "Shion, Hibiki." "Ugh. Seriously, I told you over the phone to buy some time."
Said Hibiki who gave an exasperated expression.
"See, look at this face. As expected, you absolutely don't remember." "I agreed with Hibiki." "It's not like that's true. You were denying it." "Shut up! Don't you normally remember your own birthday!?"
I couldn't believe my ears.
(What's the big deal about a birthday?)
Didn't we just gather around Hibiki and drink, saying the same thing not too long ago?
(…So annoying.)
This atmosphere where celebrating one's birth is taken for granted.
Loving your neighbors is considered natural in this atmosphere, mixed with the languid lingering heat, "that" is so heavy and sickeningly sweet… it's suffocating.
"You've got to be kidding. Sogo-san seriously, did you forget?" "For now, let's go inside. Making more noise will bother the neighbors." "I've prepared something, sort of hastily though since I didn't have much time." "Come on, Sogo."
Seeing me at a loss for words, Hibiki lightly patted my shoulder. Then, with a nonchalant demeanor, he pretended, "Come on, just go along with it. Today, as special treat I'll sing a special birthday song for you."

[TRANSLATION] HIBIKI BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION SS(Short Story) 🎉
Tumblr media
Pushing open the studio door, the lukewarm heat from outside surged in all at once.
"Wow, it's so hot…"
Even my own voice escaping my mouth is irritating. Despite the fact that the sun has long set, the daytime heat lingers on, and not only that, it's carrying a dampness that hangs heavily in the thin evening darkness of summer.
(Truly unpleasant.)
I let out a sigh, not knowing how many times I've sighed since waking up today.
"Kouno, quit complaining all the time. It's annoying." "It can't be helped, it's hot." "The air is so muggy…"
"Shion." Toya, who was walking ahead, stopped and turned back with a concerned look.
"You really seem to be struggling. Shouldn't you let Sogo carry you?"
"I'm fine. I can manage. It's just to the parking lot, so I can do it somehow…"
Despite Shion's brave response, it's evident on his face that he is nearing their limit.
"I've always hated summer."
Muttering that, I noticed Endo glancing over in this direction for a moment.
But I pretended not to notice.
Intense heat. Right in the middle of August.
(It's hot and exhausting… so hot.) Nothing's going well. If possible, I'd want to pretend I'm dead and just get through this. While thinking that,
(Oh, not again.)
My phone is ringing.
(How many times since morning?)
I know who's calling without even looking at the screen.
Today is the day when once a year, I'm subjected to a one-sided confession of guilt and apologies for not being able to do anything. So, I'm not picking up. Absolutely not. (Mom, I've had enough of that.)
I'm not a kid anymore. I'm living on my own just fine. I'm not hurt anymore, really. (I've been raised well enough. I'm grateful. I don't want or need anything more from you.)
Please, I hope you understand soon. (… Ah, it got disconnected.) That's a relief. Explaining things is tiring anyway and it's hot.
"Hey, Megane.."
Shion raised his face slowly, and Endo continued.
"How about having today's drinking session at your place, after all?"
"…At Shion's place? Not Sogo's?"
Surprised, I asked again, and Toya nodded easily.
"Let's do that. Shion seems unwell since the morning, and it's worrying to leave him alone."
"I'm sorry, but my place is small."
"It's fine. As long as there's enough space for one person to sit, we're good." "Huh, Toya, you're coming too?" "Is there a problem if I'm there?" "There isn't, but you hardly ever come even if you're invited. And today, Shion doesn't seem well either, so there's no need to push yourself to drink on a day like this." "A day like this, huh?" "Kouno. Isn't today your birthday?"
All three of them looked at me simultaneously.
(Huh, no way… What? Is that so?)
They were looking at me with expressions that seemed like it should be obvious. I was surprised.
"Could it be that you forget it?" "Yeah, well… but so what?" "What do you mean? We're going to drink, it's your birthday." "I'm having a bit of trouble understanding what you're saying…" "Get it together, you fool. Oh, Sogo-saan!"
Sogo came running back from the parking lot.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting." "Whoa, you're all drenched in sweat!" "During summer, just lifting and lowering the drums is a workout itself. The inside of the car is ridiculously hot too."
"I'm really sorry, I had Sogo-san carry the keyboard too."
"Don't worry about it. I left the door wide open and turned on the AC, so let's go. It would be nice if our mood improves a bit while we're driving." "That's the thing, though. Is it okay to have it at Megane's place today?" "I don't mind, but is it fine for all of us to barge in? It's still an option to do it at my place as planned. I even aired out the guest room's futon the other day." "Home is where anyone most comfortable. Also, while we're at it, we can inspect Shion's room and buy anything necessary for his summer life. It's your first summer living alone, right?" "Yes… um, sorry." "Do you properly turn on the AC when you sleep?" "I set it on a timer." "Huh? You're gonna die, you idiot!" "Shut up! If I leave it on, I'll freeze to death!"
I'm living on my own just fine. I'm not hurt anymore. I still don't like summer, though. But…
(Since when did things become like this?)
At the very least, this year's summer is not the same as before.
"Hey, Hibiki, why are you smiling?" "Sorry. I just felt like, it's kind of fun."
Finding myself able to think like that was a bit refreshing. I couldn't help but smile.

[TRANSLATION] DIG-ROCK HOUND ROAR vol. 1 - Track 04
Tumblr media
Track 4: Things I don't want to forgive.
Sogo: I'm back. Shoma: Welcome back! Shion: Yankee… Why are you here? Shoma: It's your fault, stupid. Sogo: I asked him to watch my house. Practice got canceled, and he said he had time. Shion: …I'm sorry. Shoma: Apologize to me too. Shion: …Sorry. Shoma: What? Why are you apologizing so easily? It's annoying! Sogo: Hey, hey. There's nothing to argue about. Hibiki: Sogo, Shion, welcome. Sogo: We're back. Shion: Why—is Hibiki here too? Hibiki: I came too play with Ricky. Also… I heard Shion got caught by the police. Shion: …You finds it amusing, right? Hibiki: Well… kind of. Shion: Damn. Shoma: Most importantly, you look pale! Come on in. Shion: What? Wait a minute. What are you doing?! Shoma: Since I spread out the blanket, go take a nap. Shion: Huh?! …What's this, treating it like it's your house… Hey, don't pull me! Sogo: Well, considering you have the energy to talk back, it seems fine. Hibiki: Haru-chan and Toya? Sogo: They both went back to work. What about you, Hibiki? Is it okay for you to stay at my place? Hibiki: Well. I have some free time. Sogo: Oh? Weren’tyou have plan today?
Hibiki: I quit my job… and there's nothing to do. Sogo: Well, if that's the case, at least show your face when we're practicing. Hibiki: There's nothing else to do. Sogo: Then, come and sing for us! It'll be more rewarding for us to play if there's a vocalist. Hibiki: I'll come when we're recording. It won't work without vocals. Sogo: Is that so… Well, since that was the deal from the start, there's nothing I can do. Hibiki: …Remember when Sogo said our members are all mysterious? As for me, I can't figure out what Sogo is thinking the most. Sogo: Is that so? I'm pretty straightforward. I just want to play in a band with everyone. So, I hope you sing too, as much as possible. It would be nice if Shoma and Shion also got along quickly. Hibiki: I think those two already get along quite well. And, about Shion, leave it to Endo. No need to worry. Sogo: You and Shoma are complete opposites in personality, but you seem to get along well. Hibiki: Whether we get along or not… I don't know yet. It hasn't been long since we started interacting face to face. But I know that Endo is kind to the weak. Even back then, when I cried in the livehouse, he stayed with me without saying a word. Sogo: Haha, is that so.
Shoma: Leave your stuff there, and oh, if you're changing, wear the clothes there. Even if you want to wash up, take a nap first! Your face looks terrible, and I don't want you collapsing before that happens. But wait, what about food?! When was the last time you ate? Shion: You're being annoyingly loud. Shoma: Huh?!
Shion: I'm tired now. I don't want to talk. And, don't worry about me. Shoma: Of course, I have to worry, idiot! Shion: …Why? Shoma: Why, you ask? Usually, if someone looks unwell in front of you, you try to help, right! Shion: …Haah. Are you a kind person or something? Forget it. I don't want to talk. Shoma: Hey, hey. Change your clothes! Oh, and isn't it torturous like this?! Should I call an ambulance?! Shion: It's not necessary; you idiot. Shoma: Is that so? Shion: Also, the inhaler… in the pocket with a zipper inside the bag. Shoma: Ah, got it! You don't need it now, right? Shion: It's fine. And, don't use it continuously even if the condition is bad. The medicine is strong, so you need to leave it empty for a few hours in between. Shoma: …Okay, I'll remember that. Oh right, your phone? Shion: I left it at home. Shoma: That's why we couldn't reach you earlier. Sogo was worried. Give me your house keys. I'll go get it for you. Shion: …I don’t need it.. Shoma: I'm not going to open your drawers! Shion: … The sound of the phone ringing, I don't want to hear it. Shoma: Huh? Why? Shion: Clearly, it's a call I don't want to answer. Shoma: Haah? Fool, quickly block those calls! Shion: …Ah. I didn't think of that. Shoma: Who is it? That annoying person? Shion: My mom. Shoma: …?!
Shion: She's been calling several times a day lately. Even though I told her to stop. At least send a message, she keeps calling. Also, when I'm not at home, she estimates when I'm not there and enters my room. She rummages through my stuff, Shoma: Just what do you mean… Are you sure you're not mistaken? Shion: Things are slightly out of place. Clothes are being washed, things I don't remember buying are lying around. There's a change of clothes, a toothbrush, more food. It makes me feel uneasy just thinking about it. Shoma: …You..see.. Shion: Don't preach. I'm tired. Shoma: I won't. …But you know, aren't your parents worried? Shion: …If that's the case, they shouldn't have let me live on my own. Don't need to buy me a mansion. Shoma: A mansion?! Shion: My parents provided the house, and the condition for living alone was it. Shoma: Your parents is rich… When did you start living alone? Shion: Since the talks about my debut began. Shoma: Surprisingly recent. Shion: It feels like being watched, and I can't relax at all. Recently, I've been staying out late every night. Shoma: Ah…!!! So that's why you got caught by the police! Shion: They thought I looked suspicious, did a body search… couldn't answer properly… and here I am. Shoma: Idiot! You should have just said something like you did now! Shion: Could I have said that? If I call home and things go wrong… Toya-san might told to quit HOUND ROAR>. Shoma: Huh? No, there’s no way. Shion: Toya-san's song will be complete without me. HOUND ROAR wasn't supposed to have a keyboard. Shoma: Then, Why!? Shion: They weren’t recruited a keyboardist, but I sent a demo for the audition anyway. I just played the song the way I felt like. I knew that MEO was working at Renown Stage, and I wondered if he would listen… But then they contacted me. Shoma: Seriously? Isn’t it great? Shion: I did hope he would listen, but I never thought he'd let me join the band. Shoma: If that's the case, you really didn't need to worry at all! Since he really likes your keyboard, everything worked out! Shion: Why are you so sure? Shoma: Well, because… Shion: You've heard all sorts of things about you, haven't you? Even if you play well, you will be a problem for the band. Shoma: …Uh, well… Shion: I don't know how to wrap this up smoothly… My parents are waiting patiently for me to give up. Shoma: What? Give up? They even buy a mansion and supported you living alone. They wanted to encourage your band activities… Shion: It's not like that. They pity me because I have no talent as keybaorist. Since they can't say it themselves, They are waiting for someone else to tell me that. Shoma: That's a bit too much… Shion: If they can't believe me, they should have said it clearly from the beginning. ‘You a pianist who can't meet your parents' expectations. You can't even take care of yourself properly, you can’t even go outside..’ …And missing practice because of an incident like this. What should I say to Toya-san? Me who didn’t play the keybaord have no value… Shoma: …Tsk.
Hibiki: Huh? Endo? Sogo: How is Shion doing? Shoma: …Ugh, so damn annoying!!! Sogo: Did you guys fight? Shoma: We didn't!!! …I'm sorry, we didn't. Hibiki: …Want to sit down? Shoma: Yeah… Sogo: Do you want something to eat? Shoma: No, I'm fine now. Sogo: Why are you so angry? Shoma: …That guy said he's a failure as a pianist. Hibiki: A failure? Sogo: I've heard stories that he played solo classical since he was young… Shoma: He called himself a failure and said he has no value as someone who can't play the keyboard. Someone who can't play the keyboard? It sucks I heard him said he has no value, and it sucks that his parents, who have been with him since birth, don't believe him at all!!! It really irritates me! A faliure? What are parental expectations? He plays the piano so well!!! Hibiki: Maybe they think classical music is superior to being in a band? Shoma: Huh?! Are they picking a fight?! Sogo: Calm down, calm down. Nothing has been confirmed yet. Shoma: Why won’t they understand that he is working so hard?! Maybe because they are worried about his health, but I also get scared sometimes… But he knows how to use medicine himself, explain things, and when it's really tough, he can even call Haru-chan! …Why doesn't he know these simple things? Hibiki: Parents are ultimately just other people, we can't choose our parent, and sometimes all we can do is give up. Sogo: Hibiki…? Hibiki: Parents can’t choose their child either, Maybe it's just me, but I'm not sure. Shoma: Ah!!! It’s so frustating!! Sogo: Oh? Haha (Laughs) Shoma: Sogo-san? Sogo: No, I just think that both of you are kind, you’re getting angry for Shion’s sake. Shoma: That megane is annoting but her piano isn’t band. Hibiki: I don’t care about music, but Shion is my friend. Sogo. Um, that’s right.

[TRANSLATION] DIG-ROCK HOUND ROAR vol. 1 - Track 03
Tumblr media
Track 3: Things I don’t want to admit
(Bell ringing sound)
Toya: Haru-chan? Kasuga: I've come to pick you up~ Toya: How did you get all the way in here? Kasuga: The entrance and elevator lock were opened by someone passing by. It's a nice mansion~ Excellent security. (Door opens) Kasuga: Good morning, Toya. Toya: Your voice is loud… Kasuga: As you said, I don't want to cause trouble for the neighbors. Pardon My intrusion~ Toya: I told you before that I don't like other people coming into my room. Kasuga: you're not answering your phone--I was worried. Toya: Sit there. I'll quickly change and come out. Kasuga: Sure~ Kasuga: How are things these days? Toya: Just so so. Kasuga: Can you just say you’re in top condition? You being strict with yourself.. Toya: Haru-chan, you praise too much. Kasuga: Humans can receive more praise. That's my motto. Toya: You seem to have come up with that just now. Kasuga: Not at all~ There's a saying that praise can make someone grow, but hitting and destroying doesn't benefit anyone. Toya: Did you say something? Kasuga: …I said I'm glad to see you healthy! Leaving that aside, you change quickly! Toya: Have I ever been late for practice? Kasuga: Nope~ You're truly an honor student. Toya: It’s normal thing. Kasuga: Othes rarely practice, the record is fragmented and the technician patchworks it together delicately. Live is a binge of sound recording, TV is lip-synced and edited. That's not unusual, is it? Toya: I don't care how others are doing. And practicing is not particularly praiseworthy, nor does high skill guarantee success. Kasuga: Your words are reasonable. Oh, that's right. The tie-up for the new song has been decided. Toya: Tie-up…? Kasuga: It's the image song for a game app. We'll release a lot through CMs and promotions. If it goes well, it might be used longer than a drama theme. It should be easy for people to remember. And there's talk of releasing an album with this new song and the single ROAR, syndrome, and Reincarnation… Toya: Toya: Hold on. Talk about the album is fine, but keep the tie-up talk blank. Kasuga: Why? Toya: I haven't heard a single word about it beforehand. I can't consider the content of the job since I don't know what game it is for. Kasuga: Why? Toya: I haven't heard a single word about such matters beforehand. I can't consider the content of the work if I don't know what game it's for. Kasuga: Ah, sorry, sorry. Actually, this was discussed between companies. The deciShion was made recently. I played the existing demo of the song, received a response without problems, so it's okay. Toya: Haru-chan, you said HOUND ROAR is going to compete with skill, right? Kasuga: I said so, and I still sincerely believe that. Toya: I'm not saying tie-ups are bad. However, if we're going to do it, I want to compete with skills. Otherwise…
Kasuga: Toya. Skill, as you mentioned earlier, is not everything. It's the overall average of everything. You, with the backup of Renown Stage, just use it to the fullest to score. Toya: I know that! But… Kasuga: It's okay! Don't be so scared. HOUND ROAR is a good band. I guarantee it. Toya: Haru-chan… Kasuga: Besides, you don't want to lose to the bands of DigPro, right? RUBIA Leopard and Impish Crow.. Toya: …. Kasuga: I got it, leave it to Haru-chan. Don't worry about trivial things; just keep creating the music you love. Toya: … Kasuga: Well then, Let’sgo!
Kasuga: Good morning~ Hey, Toya, try to lighten up a bit.~ Toya: Stop that sugarcoating words. Sogo: Toya! Haru-chan! Kasuga: Good morning, Sogo. Sogo: Both of you… haven't you heard anything from Shion? Kasuga: Shion? Nothing at all. Toya? Toya: I don't know. What's going on? Sogo: I promised to move the keyboard today… went to pick him up, I kept ringing the intercom, and he didn't answer. He didn't come to the studio either. Toya: I don't want to imagine it, but… he didn't collapse at home, did he? Sogo: I'm starting to worry now. Should have asked him to open the door when I went to the mansion… Kasuga: No, no, they wouldn't have opened it so easily. Unless it's family or the police. Sogo: Ah…That’s right…
Shoma: Good morning,, Sogo: Shoma! Have you heard anything from Shion? Shoma: Megane? No, not at all. Kasuga: Any idea where he might be? Shoma: It's impossible… What happened to him? Sogo: He's not answering calls… Toya: How about sending Haru-chan to check his condition at the manShion? Kasuga: Let's do that. If it doesn't work out, we may have to contact his parents to open the door. Shoma: If it doesn't work out… Kasuga: If anything happens, we'll contact you. You guys can continue practicing. Shoma: But… that guy might have collapsed somewhere! It's not the time for a practice! Toya: There's nothing we can do. It's better than wasting time. Shoma: Don't say we're wasting time like that! Toya: Then how should I say it? Shoma: You! Your words are so heartless! Toya: So annoying… Shoma: What?! Sogo: Both of you, that's enough. Shoma: …Sorry. Sogo: Let's calm down for a moment. I don't feel like practicing right now either. Toya: Haa… Shion, that guy…
(footstep sounds)
Sogo: Oh? Haru-chan! Shoma: You're back so soon? Kasuga: …The police just contacted me. Toya: The police…? Kasuga: Shion has been arrested. Shoma: …Huh?!
Shion: … Sogo-san…? Sogo: Are you okay, Shion? How's your condition? Shion: I'm okay… Sogo: Thank goodness… Ah!! you surprised me! Shion: I'm sorry… But why is Sogo-san here? Sogo: I came with Haru-chan. Now, let's go. Shion: Huh? But… Sogo: The police were convinced by Haru-chan. There's nothing to worry about now. Come on, get up. Kasuga: Thank you so much~ I'm sorry for causing trouble. Police: Really, be more careful next time. Kasuga: That's true! I'll make sure to tell him that. Ah, here he is, Shion. Shion: Uh… Kasuga: Save the scold for later! Now, apologize to the police. Shion: I'm sorry… Police: Don't make any confusing actions in the future. And explain the situation more clearly. Since you're an adult. Shion: …Yes. Kasuga: Haa~ It's been a while since I visited a police station. Sogo: A while? Kasuga: …When you work in the entertainment industry for a long time, you experience various things~ Want to hear the details? Sogo: Haha… I'd rather not. Kasuga: So, Shion? Shion: Um… I'm sorry for causing trouble. Kasuga: You did well! Shion: Huh? Kasuga: Calling me first was the correct thing to do. Thinking that Shion relied on me in a crisis, it warms my heart. Shion: No, it's not really like that… Kasuga: Let's just go with that. It's resolved before it could become a bigger issue, and there won't be any hindrance to HOUND ROAR’s activities. No need to worry. Shion: Oh… Kasuga: Sogo, listen to the details. I need to go back to the office. If something troublesome happens, contact me. Sogo: Understood. Kasuga: I’m counting on you~ Sogo: Shall we go too? Shion: Sogo-san… I (coughing) Sogo: Are you alright?! I parked my car nearby, can you walk? Shion: Yes.. Umm.. I have a favor to ask. Sogo: What is it? Shion: I… I don't want to go home right now. Um… Sogo: Will you to come to my place? Shion: Asking for this… I know it's a lot, but… Sogo: I was planning to do that from the beginning. Shion: Huh? Sogo: You're not in good health, and it's harder to be alone, right? Plus… we want to hear the details.
