[recollecters]

Hello and happy new year! A lot of poll results came in from R&D and we've almost fixed taste all the way. Horses are almost fixed, too. We've been working pretty much non-stop around the holidays to stabilize everything, so I hope this works! Just so you guys know, while we were working on fixing the original problems we received some alerts of residual effects outside of our usual domain. Don't worry though! Remember what I said a while ago? We're still moving more resources around into better defenses to protect the city from huge storms like last summer. We'll be taking care of that really soon and isolating the unknown problem. I wish I could tell you more, but we're all working overtime here to finish the final stages of a big project. No matter what happens you guys should be safe while we finish up, so just stay calm, okay? Don't get too reckless! Joanne Wiseman Technician 2nd class Retrspec Incorporated As of this post taste tier 4 has been icly regained; tier 5 will go into effect on Saturday, January 6th at 9pm EST and taste will be fully restored!

Wow, that's a lie if I ever saw one.

You know, there is a backspace key for your constant keyboard smashing.

[-- oh goddammit did he forget to delete that again HE DID]

I KNOW THAT!!

[HOW DID THE TABLES TURN LIKE THIS--]

That's not the point here! Just how long have you

I mean

You know

[He doesn't even want to SAY it]

[promisedyou]

Oh, you do? I wouldn't have guessed it.

As for your question, I don't know what you're talking about, you'll have to be more specific✩

[cardcaptured]

[WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO THIS PURE CHILD, MIO]

When have you

... started being each other's special someones?

[because that's not more embarrassing to say than just plain old dating, NOPE]

[promisedyou]

Is that what kids call it now? Since New Year's.

[cardcaptured]

[It's what the CLAMP kids call it, anyway??? But more importantly--]

New

New Years?!

[Just a day?? But he does recall the extra Japanese food in the refrigerator when he returned home, (strange given how he made stuff for Leon before he left) and it all starts to click.]

I was only gone for a night!!

[promisedyou]

Maybe that's what you get, going to visit your girlfriend.

[... SHIT HE PRESSED ENTER BEFORE HE COULD DELETE THAT]

SHE'S NOT MY GIRLFRIEND!!

[promisedyou]

I didn't even say who it was. So that's the first person you think of when I say 'girlfriend'? ☆

[cardcaptured]

She's the only person I visited on New Year's, stupid Mi-Ron! Who else would you be referring to?!

[ALTHOUGH....... SHE'S NOT WRONG......... but that's only because a few other people had jumped to that conclusion before too, so it's not because he actually liked her!!]

[promisedyou]

And how could I have possibly known that? I didn't know if you visited other people or not. I'm not a psychic.

[cardcaptured]

I'm sure someone told you.
[A certain egomaniac someone who likes to touch his hair a lot--] Why would you go and visit him otherwise?

[promisedyou]

What, do you think I wouldn't have visited if you were there?

[cardcaptured]

[... well, she did bring a lot of Japanese food, so maybe she might have made it in the hopes he'd eat it too, but--]

... no.

But your timing was awfully convenient.

[promisedyou]

I guess you can say that my luck is just that good!

[cardcaptured]

Or Leon went and told you ahead of time.

[But talking with his cousin had put things in more of a perspective for him, and so--]

Anyway, if you guys feel that way for one another then

it's none of my business.

Just don't do any more weird things to him, okay? If you like him like-- that, you should respect his dignity. [... Xiaolang you really are a naive child.......]

[promisedyou]

[ She's definitely not going to say anything about the whole "talking ahead of time", but there is something she will say: ]

You think Leon had much dignity to begin with? But just because I like him doesn't mean that I'll stop teasing him, you know! ☆

[cardcaptured]

He did before he met you. [No, you dumb child, he just made you think he did]

Aren't you supposed to be nice to the people you like? Why would you want to keep embarrassing him like that?

[promisedyou]

Yeah, sure he did.

And I am nice. I promised him that I'd make him tamagoyaki when we get our sense of taste back! Besides as for why... because it's fun to see his reactions. It's cute.

[cardcaptured]

They're not cute. They're just him being uncomfortable. [Xiaolang you're like a little brother figure to him OF COURSE IT WOULDN'T SEEM CUTE IN YOUR EYES.....]

... I guess that's a nice gesture, though. Those are those rolled omelettes, right? I'm sure he'd probably like them well enough.

[promisedyou]

Maybe not to you.

And yeah, they are! Did you want me to make some for you, too? I definitely don't mind doing that much. ☆
