::Schu's lounging on his couch. His hair has faint blue streaks in it, and if you came close enough you'd realize they smell vaguely sweet and like "raspberry." Some sections look crimped, as if they'd had braids for a while. Some of the activists he's staying with are young women who can't resist the lure of The Hair.::

I spoke to the Nexus Brad again recently and he didn't annoy me as badly as last time. Though following his mood changes could have given you whiplash. I'll watch how he behaves next time to see if I should revise my earlier opinion.

I have a bad feeling something stupid and destructive may have happened around Nagi. Visit me, will ya?

Aya got hit by a clue bat, but he has people taking his mind off the deep disturbance of having a clue.

Gojyo and Hakkai are still LOL'd, and I haven't visited them since. Their moods are kind of chancy at the moment. I'm sure Nagi would do better than I would.

Greed is back to propositioning girlish boys thinking they're girls. This one looked a bit like Ritsuka. I miss that kid.

This alien chick showed up in the Nexus who was like the Warner kids in human female form. She made my head spin, but I just had to offer help anyway, dumbass that I can sometimes be. No good deed goes unpunished.

The drama stick is thwapping people heavily in the Nexus. Clones, people losing their powers and going temporarily bugshit.... You guys can deal, while I sit back with my popcorn and snark.

((Schu also had an honest and not happy conversation with

cursed_bird in

dear_mun, where it doesn't count. But that's the only place Farfarello will talk to him with some honesty and fewer threats.))

When I had another telepathy lesson for London Aya today he came in all pissed off and I managed to talk him into telling me what's bothering him. It turns out it's the usual shit with Chloe picking on Ken-ken and Ken-ken's less than perfect grasp of English. Aya's long past tired of the two of them having a tug of war over him, but telling that to Chloe gets him nowhere while Kenchen feels the need to defend himself and Aya. Meanwhile, Aya's fucking Ken and loves him but is not in love with him, which Ken knows and is fine with because Aya is a Special Snowflake and Ken's own Shinigami of Wuv.

Aya's glad that Ken doesn't have over-the-top homicidal rages anymore so he tries not to upset or worry him, and he doesn't trust the Kryptonbrand crew much (nor should he). He won't contact his sister, and even if he did he would never tell her anything that he thought would upset her. So he just represses down hard and gives them all that sadly serene smile mask he developed after he lost Yohji for good. Except with me. I've gotten him to let out his frustration and rage about the personal stuff to me, though he still keeps team- and mission-related stuff to himself, which he's welcome to since we (Schwarz-we) think Kryptonbrand is full of whackjobs.

So he vents, we train, and then we often make out in a devouring, nearly angry way for a while before he can recollect himself. Yohji must not have been smexing him the right way, because if Aya had been this much like a house on fire during sex with him he would have to be an idiot to stray the way he did. Oh wait, it's Yohji, and at least three out of four Yohjis are numbskulls. Never mind.

I actually did end up watching the download of the newest episode of Heroes (".07%") with Brad and Farf. Bradford invited me over for it. Sci-fi is important stuff!

Sylar rocks our socks--the thing with the glass!--Mohinder gets ever more moronic, Matt's not a total waste of space for once--usually I want him off of my (telepathic) side--and Brad's happy with Nathan. Plus, BroYay! Don't tell me it's because they're Italian-American. But, yeah, Watchmen.
