Okay, with Obon coming up quickly I was wondering if anyone needs a date to this celebration.

Us shinki don't really have a connection to our ancestors anymore and we wouldn't remember them even if we did. So I figure it'd be better to hang out with someone you have a bit more in common with, right?

... Isn't this a little like trolling for blind dates to your family Christmas party?

[Come on, Shuusei. Show some class.]

More like trolling for a blind date for a company party I'd think.

[Who needs class?]

voice

[skepticstarbuck]

Whatever.

[Equally bad, if you ask her.]

Besides, if it's a religious holiday I wouldn't be surprised if gods are expected to work.

[latentforlife]

[Oh yeah, shinki duties and all that nonsense.]

Hopefully we get some breaks.

voice

[skepticstarbuck]

We get breaks on the days that aren't holidays. Isn't that enough?

That said, the Heavens do seem to throw plenty of celebrations.

voice

[latentforlife]

Depends on how much you enjoy your breaks I guess. They throw quite a few but doesn't mean we can't enjoy more, right?

voice

[skepticstarbuck]

Personally, I'm still trying to get used to how much free time they give us.

voice

[latentforlife]

Well, if you want to take long walks on the beach or a night on the town to get your mind off of all the down time, feel free to let me know.

voice

[skepticstarbuck]

I'll keep that in mind.

[Her tone says: nice try. She has to admit the total shamelessness has its own charm, but she's not the woman for that approach.]

voice

[latentforlife]

[It's always worth a shot.]

Until then I better get back on deciding exactly what I'm doing for this Obon thing.

Take care.

[skepticstarbuck]

[Her tone is still amused.] Good luck -- and take care.
