"I think anything that sparks the imagination has an equal chance of improving or harming your life", he said, also looking away to something else. "Though... if it's sake, we could go to the Song after this."

"Why not? I haven't been there yet, truth to be told."

"Their theme is a joke", he grumbled. "Love conquers nothing, sometimes you just get people who agree with each other enough to be happy." he scratched the back of his head and motioned toward some seats for them. "Not as if I believe it has nothing to offer, but my experience so far has told me st...

He considered that. "It's true we haven't seen the classic love triangle yet...do you think it's due so soon though?" he asked.

Fujiko was hurrying to the gallery, a sheet of paper firmly held in her hands. She'd been woken by a nightmare and had no real recollection of actually painting what was on the crumpled image she held in a tight grip. Her eyes passed from painting to painting as she walked through the hallways. Not ...

"I am pleased you like it. Ikoma Saekaki was a master of the art, so I am indebted to him for providing me his great words," he says with a bow. "I'm glad to see you again Kaikoga-san. You are looking very well today. I am glad," he says, his smile one of relief that she was feeling better compared...
