DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY PAINFUL, AGONIZED, HEART-BREAKING WEEKS I SPENT CHECKING THIS SITE IN FERVENT HOPE OF SEEING ALL OF YOU BACK AGAIN!!! * scampers over to each seishi and squeezes them* ....oops. Er...*koff*...anyways. Ahem. Good to see all of ya back. ;) * gives everybody home-made tiramisu* And here's a special welcome back poem for all of you dudes~! Title: Welcome back, dudes One fine day I checked this site Hoping to ask some questions But in the end, I got a ...uh...BITE!(pathetic attempt to make things rhyme) and...uh....( uhoh, writer's block) I had...to visit the Suzaku bunions. ( lame-o-mania) (And cried while cutting onions) So, I waited and I waited From dawn till dusk and...stuff. (Don't ask me whether I used the toilet, Keeping it in my kidneys was tough) Months passed by and my heart grew weary * sounds of mike squeaking* Urm....eheh-heh... OKAY! THAT's ALL...Ran outta ideas.Oh I know!! *Jials is later seen being dragged of in a straightjacket by two men in white labcoats* Jials: No! WAIT!!!!!! YP:.......*sweatdrop*Er...bye. Jials and YP

Dear Jials and YP,     Ashitare: Thank you, my dears. It's good to be back, and Tiramisu is always welcome. Please work on your metre, though... Amiboshi: Thanks! It's great to be back. We've missed you too! Suboshi: Thanks for the snack! It's quite tasty. Nakago: ....Interesting poem. Seishi

Dear Nakago,  Wow.....Your story was more different than what Tamahome-sama and Shun'u-oji tell me. ^^ Your really a nice person..^^ *hugs him* Lita

Dear Lita,     I am glad you enjoyed it. What about their stories were different? Nakago

Dear Suboshi,  A couple of days ago, i got into this huge argument at with my twin brother Tori. He told me I was useless, and stupid. I cried for ages. Can you helpme? Ithoughtyoumight understand, because we're both younger twins,and kow what it's like ot have a twin. Most ofmy friends don't kow what to tell me. *bows politely* tankx for reading my letter. Sakura

Dear Sakura,     *hugs her* That's horrible when it happens. As twins we're so close sometimes we know how to say the most hurtful things. Did you ask him why he said that? Surely you can work it out between you. Good luck! Suboshi

Dear Soi, What would be your comment to those people who think of women as weak? I'm surrounded by people who think that just because some girls are all make-up and sensitivity, they think all of us are like that! I happen to be in a school filled with people like that.What would you do? Forte

Dear Forte,     The best way to show your strength is to rise above people like that and not give them the satisfaction of your anger. Eventually you'll meet people who can see beyond shallow stereotypes. Soi

Dear Amiboshi,  Let's see, I'm not quite sure how to put this. *thinks for a long time* Do you you often get temperamental, I mean, like, arguing with Suboshi a lot? My brother and I have been fighting alot lately. Do you have any thoughts on this? What could possibly be going through his head? Aren't you the older twin? *sighs* I could really use a hug. *bows politly* Thank you for reading this letter. Sakura

Dear Sakura,     First off, *hug*. I've had some bad fights with Suboshi. Being really close to your sibling means that it's a lot easier for them to really get under your skin. Because you know each other so well, that makes it easy to know what the most terrible things to say in an argument are. It's sad, but true. I don't know what could be going on with your brother - most of the time I never know with Suboshi either. Have you tried asking once you've both calmed down from your argument? Amiboshi

Dear Miboshi, Ah, so you HAVE met Chichiri before...what were the circumstances and such?? Details, please! I asked Chichiri about it as well, but it was a rather touchy subject for him. I am sure you wouldn't be too chicken to tell me about it, right??? Tebokki

Dear Tebokki,     Which meeting are you referring to? Prior to the one in the temple? Miboshi

Dear Tomo,  *tackles u with a flying leap* ANIKI!!!!! I MISSED YOU!!!! ^___^ *huggles u* Did u miss me? *hands u a gift card to ur fave store* ^___^ Rashii

Dear Rashii,     I missed you too! thanks for the gift! Tomo

Dear Miboshi, I think that it's unfair that practically everyone I know disrespects you. So what if you're evil? That's cool. So what if you forced that little runt of a Chiriko to kill himself (I loved that part)? You rock! I really wish people didn't only think of you as an evil pumpkin. That is such an insult to all things evil! People nowadays just don't know how to appreciate pure evil! >( Forte

Dear Forte,     "An evil pumpkin"? That's a new one. But you're right, people just can't appreciate evil these days. At least you have good taste. Miboshi

Dear Ashitare, Hi. I know you have read a lot of novels. Have you read Hemingway? My class just finnished The Sun Also Rises. I didn't like it very much. It's not really my kind of novel. We also read The Scarlet Letter (Hawthorne), The Awakening (Chopin), Huck Finn (Twain), and Catcher and the Rye (I can't remember the author). They are all novels that have been banned from schools across the country for various reasons. Next we are reading The Geat Gadspy and the The Grapes of Wrath and probably more which I can't remember. How many of these novels have you read? And Have you liked all of them? I look forward to your answer. *smiles* Kyra

Dear Kyra,     You and your classmates deserve a pat on the back for reading banned books my dear, and my congratulations go out to your teacher. I have, indeed, read all of those books, and I enjoyed them greatly. I rarely meet a book that I don't like, unless it's written by Faulkner. Don't feel bad that you didn't enjoy Hemmingway - he's an acquired taste. I hope you continue to read literature that various ignoramuses have attempted to ban in the future! Ashitare

Dear Soi, I am so glad that you're back! ^_^ And I am also so glad that school is out! *smiles* I managed to get an A on my last English paper - usually my professor writes "great!' "excellent" "insightful!" etc and makes no corrections...then gives me a D. (?!?!?!) This time, however, he did that and I got an A! ^______^ Glad you're back! ^_~ Yakouju

Dear Yakouju,     Congratulations on your paper! That's wonderful! I'm glad to be back, too! Soi

Dear Amiboshi, your so nice ^_^ but if you joined marching band, what if you killed people with your chi? can you control it? I don't think it would be nice to see deads people on the streets after a marching band preformance... Okami-chan

Dear Okami-chan,     I can control my chi really well; I don't hurt people unless I want to, and I almost never want to. It wouldn't be a problem. For some reason, your comment about dead people after a marching band performance seemed to really amuse Katsu... Amiboshi

Dear Nakago, OOOOOOOOOOOOO you guys are back!!!!!!!!!!!ya !!!Lots has happened since.lets see well I read this really weird story about nakago and tasuki um doin it.o and i am writeing a story about were u all go to south carolina for vacation,which comes to my question.how would you propose to soi?thats it by,you sexy thing!!!!! mrs.piccolo

Dear mrs piccolo,     In reference to the Tasuki fanfic, that's disgusting. As for how I would propose to Soi, if I indeed did so, it wouldn't be anything special. I'd just ask. Nakago

Dear Ashitare, Aniki! You're back! *smiles* I hope that it wasn't TOO much trouble to get the computer fixed? Anyways...I've been neck-deep in English essays...and my last one was on Shakespeare! ^__^ On the play, "Hamlet" <I know it should be italicized or underlined but I cannot seem to make the computer do that today! Argh! So! Other than computer problems, how have you been? I found this great cookbook for you! I even got someone to coat the pages so they won't rip or get messy! *hands it to you* I'm so glad you're back! ^_^ Flame the Whip Girl

Dear Flame the Whip Girl,     Computers are beastly machines, are they not? Other than my brief battles with the computer system, I've been quite well. The break has allowed me to catch up a bit more on my reading, as a matter of fact! I hope that you are enjoying your foray into Hamlet; it is one of the greatest tragedies ever written. Thank you for the book, my dear! Ashitare

Dear Nakago, *chatters happily and glomps u* kwee!!!!!!!!! ginger's pet squirrel has returned!! ^__^.

Dear ginger's pet squirrel,     Oh no, not again...didn't we make pie out of you? Nakago

Dear Ashitare,  Testing the forms otu, now taht the computer's back up and running (yay, Tsutsuji!) We hope the gloves are doing well. If you need another pair, let me know. And I suppose this question is for both you and Soi... I think. I just wondered about the status of women in Kutou's social sphere. Do they have the same rights as the men? Are they equals? Silver

Dear Silver, Ashitare: The gloves are doing quite well, my dear! The craftsmanship that went into them was excellent in my humble opinion; they should last me for some time yet. As for your question, Soi is the best one to direct it toward. I wasn't allowed into the palace, so I have no observations; everything I know is from reading rather than actual experience. Soi: Women are far below men here; we're expected to do what we're told and respond immediately to what the men want. I was lucky to have Nakago to protect me from the others. Generally, life in the palace is farily unpleasant. Ashitare and Soi

Dear Amiboshi, Okay, this is my first time so...all well. Since you're the nicer person, I just needed to ask: 'what the less meaner way to tell someone that you can't really be their friend anymore because of something the did or who they are? Azntiger

Dear Antzeger,     That's very sad when it happens. There isn't really a nice way to say it. The best option is always honesty. Don't suddenly stop talking to them without an explanation; the best way to do it is just say "I'm sorry, but I don't feel like I can be your friend any more because of this." and move on. Amiboshi

Dear Nakago,  Welcome back! ^^ *hugs* I got a question isf you dont mind...well I was watching the series at the end when baka-home killed you and the Kutou emperor said "clean him and brings him to be right away" what did he do after that? Kylie

Dear Kylie,    I'd rather not talk about it. I'm sure you can gather what you need from the context. Nakago

Dear Suboshi, What can you describe yourself as? nikki

Dear nikki,     In what context? Suboshi

Dear Ashitare, Finally! What took so long?! I visited everyday for weeks just to see if the site was back! Anyway, did you have a nice vacation during all that period of time? :)Erm.....question. What happened to the place where people could ask all the Seiryuu seishi? I kinda don't know how to go back there, either that or it's not there anymore on the main page. Triste

Dear Triste,     I did have quite a nice vacation - I caught up on some of my reading and taught myself a few new Thai dishes. The link to the ask all letter was repaired a few days ago. In the future, please address technical website concerns directly to Tsutsuji; she doesn't see all the letters right away and it will be repaired much faster if she is told directly. Ashitare

Dear Tomo, how long does it take to make your make up? Lisa

Dear Lisa,     About an hour. Tomo

Dear Amiboshi, *hug* Yay! You're back! ^-^ But I'm sad.. I just saw the episode you fell into the river! T-T. So very sad...and then Nakkie called you a fool! A FOOL! He thought you were dead and he didn't even apologize To Suboshi or say 'too bad' or anything! *kicks Nakago in the shin* Evil son of a-*more kicks to the shin* Ne...can you hurt him for me? *grins* Oh well, Ja! Baka-chan

Dear Baka-chan,     It's good to be back! Nakago isn't a very tactful person. I thought he was constantly mean to my brother and I; that's why it was so nice to fake my own death and get away from him. I can't really beat him up, but I bet Tamahome will again if we ask him nicely - or even not very nicely! Amiboshi

Dear Nakago,  *poke*poke* do you feel that? *hits him on head* how about that? are you invincable? Okami-chan

Dear Okami-chan,     Quit that. It's annoying. Nakago

Dear Ashitare, Hmmm....you know, everytime I look at you, I keep on thinking of Red XIII from Final Fantasy Seven...both of you are educated, intellectual, solemn...what are your thoughts on him? Final Fantasy Freek

Dear Final Fantasy Freek,     He and I have quite a bit in common, from our well-educated tastes to our history of lives in cruel bondage at the whim of a madman. We've actually been corresponding for years; I believe that the only time we've ever really disagreed in a less than polite fashion was when he told me that he actually likes Faulkner. A being of great taste and class, except for that one small flaw. Ashitare

Dear Amiboshi,  do you know who I am? if you've read Genrou den, you should...I usually write to Genrou, but I thought that it would be nice to speak to somebody outside. you love your brother alot, don't you? I love my brother to, but our bond isn't strong at all. can you teach me how to play the flute? *gives him a longing look* please? Reirei

Dear Reirei,     Unfortunately, I'm not quite certain who you are. I guess I'll have to read the book again. I love my little brother more than I can really say. It's not necessarily a bad thing that you're not quite as close to your brother. It can be difficult at times. I guess I can try to teach you, but you'd probably be better off getting a teacher that's easier to reach than me. Amiboshi

Dear Ashitare, *Walks up to Ashitare and hugs him* i just thought you could use a hug since meanie Nakago think's your useless!^^ well if your so useless then why didn't Nakago go and get the Shinzaho himself? *hugs again and goes to bother other seishi* Wolf Demon Kylie

Dear Wolf Demon Kylie,     I would say that Nakago believes in a hands-off management style. Or, to put it more simply, he's a lazy ass that is afraid to risk his own pathetic skin on the dangerous missions. Ashitare

Dear Nakago, hey whats up??? nothing much here... how are u today?...ok bye Korin

Dear Korin,     Not much, and you? Nakago

Dear Ashitare,  Okay...I was just wondering; when was the first time you transformed in a wolf? And one more thing, can I call you Bigfoot? AznTiger

Dear AznTiger,     I was very young; I don't really remember when. And no, you may not. What an insulting name to be called. Ashitare

Dear Suboshi, umm... you might get mad if I tell you this. I'm role playing Korin (nuriko's sister) and The person that's playing Suboshi is makeing you have a thing for her (ya know what I mean?) I think It's kind of weird because you like Yui... But its nice to see somebody make you have an interest for the other women around you... Okami-chan

Dear Okami-chan,     Whoever is playing me clearly has no sense of my character. I love Yui. And if I didn't...the dead sister of a dead transvestite Suzaku seishi? Come on... Suboshi

Dear Suboshi, *looks nervously around* I just wanted to say hi to you, I think that you and your brother are one of the coolest characters in the book. I can understand why your so mad at the suzaku people, I, for some reason, can look at people's point of view, I know, its strange... so hows it like looking at your own reflection every day? ^_^ Okami-chan

Dear Okami-chan,     You mean Aniki? It's wonderful having him around again. And hi to you, too! Suboshi

Dear Ashitare, I just came from seeing Othello performed at a theatre in Oklahoma City. It was very good. I was just wondering have you seen any Shakespearean plays lately. If not hear some tickets to King Lear. Hope you enjoy! miko 06

Dear miko 06,     I'm glad that you enjoyed the play! While I've been quite impressed by the movies that have been made of various plays, nothing is quite the same as a stage performance. It has a certain soul that movies lack. Recently, I've been to a production of "Twelfth Night", which I heartily recommend to anyone that wishes to laugh until bodily harm is caused. Thank you for the tickets, my dear! Ashitare

Dear Miboshi, WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY!!!!!!!!!!! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO MAKE CHIRIKO KILL HIMSELF!!!!!!!! I HATE YOU AND I ALWAYS WILL!!!!!!! MAD PARTY ANIMAL!

Dear Party Animal,     Stop yelling. I didn't make him do anything. In fact, I was trying to keep him from killing himself; he was my host-body, after all. Miboshi

Dear Soi, your actually a very nice person, aren't you? Okami-chan

Dear Okami-chan,     I try to be. I don't always succeed, but I try. Soi

Dear Ashitare, aww... Nakago is so mean to you *hugs ashitare* I don't know you, but your looks make you no differnt from a normal person! I like your wolf form, of course, being a m.t.reikaku bandit may explain why I like you! ^_^ you are practically the symbol of the bandits! Reirei

Dear Reirei,     Thank you for your understanding, my dear! I am nearly the symbol of the bandits? When did this occur? While I admit it's a rather flattering thought, I'm not quite certain hor I feel about it... Ashitare

Dear Nakago, Nakago you're my hero.. yuri

Dear yuri,     Thank you. Nakago

Dear Amiboshi, I usually ask the suzaku peoples, but I thought it would be neat to write to you. I'm Hotohori's little sister. I can understand you. I think like you more or less! I know its strange, but in every character test, I'm always you... It would be nice to have somebody like you for a sibling, your so cool. well, I have to go or else Hotohori will get mad to know that I'm here, Ja Ne ^_^ Okami-chan

Dear Okami-chan,     Thank you. It was nice being introduced. Say hi to Hotohori-sama for me. Amiboshi

Dear Ashitare, You're not going to answer me, are ya Bigfoot? Azntiger

Dear Azntiger,     Are you really that much of an imbecile? Ashitare

Dear Nakago, WHY DOESN'T MANY PEOPLE LIKE YOU!? (GOMEN, IM HYPER!) OH! IKNOW! IT'S, YOUR EVIL!(THOUGH I LIKE EVIL!) *SLAPS HIM IN THE FACE!* NAH NAH! *STICKS OUT TONGE AT YOU!**DOES A CRAZY DANCE TOO!* JA!! PARTY ANIMAL! (I'M HYPER AGAIN!)

Dear Party Animal,     *seishi symbol begins to glow* Hit me again, I dare you. I'll chi-blast you to oblivion. Nakago

Dear Nakago,  WHEN IN THE HECK ARE YOU GUYS GONNA ANSWER THE QUESTIONS!!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!????????!!!!! LindaBlair

Dear LindaBlair,     Why do we always have to go through this?? We answer the letters ONCE A WEEK TO TWO WEEKS WHEN TSUTSUJI AND KATSU HAVE TIME. Get over it, would you? Nakago
