[passio]

Black-as-can-be cats arrive a-pair,
Up on a rooftop, a plaintive eve,
And on the tips of their pointed tails hung
A wispy crescent-moon, looking hazy.
'O-wah, good evening,'
'O-wah, good evening!'
'O-wah, o-wah, o-wah!'
'O-wah, the man of this household is bedridden.'

A poem by Sakutaro Hagiwara, that I heard once from a friend. It seems things have calmed down since #FFFFFF arrived, but I wonder if that's the end of it.

How is everyone's literary analysis? I think we should be prepared for more mysterious messages, and maybe there's a way to prevent it before it gets bad.

Probably not. I wonder what #FFFFFF is.

Literary analysis? I'm pretty good at it. But it might not be the same thing next time. [ he did, after all, get first place in his class. ]

[Sup, Dex.]

It's been awhile since I've heard any poetry by him. [Though his teacher wasn't a huge fan so...they skipped over a lot too?

Thanks Toriumi-sensei.]

I'm just glad that things are calm enough for us to sleep a bit better now, though.

Lost in thought, huh? Now I’m wondering how one person can exist in two very different places.

Cooperation seemed to be key to make things easier. It’s what you’d expect.

i doubt that's the end of it

and if we're doing literary analysis
i think that poem was written when the writer was really bored and the neighbourhood cats were really loud
he couldn't sleep and thought

wow
i should write about this in my diary

that's really good advice! it's important to stay sharp.

do you know many more poems? i think some of my friends miss having new things to read, so i hope they see this. even if it IS a little sad :(

do you really think everything's going to be presented to us in weird cryptic messages from now on?

i didn't really do well in school...and i don't think i really know how to appreciate poetry.

i'm more of a fairy tale kind of girl.

[And well, gravure magazines, but she doesn't freely admit it to strangers anymore.]
