The 100th anniversary has come and gone, and you would not believe the gossip and the hoo-hah I've picked up! The throngs of Shibusen students and staff have been very, very busy, and the past few weeks have given this one many things to talk about. Have you missed me much? I'm sure you have, what with all the 'knowledge' I bestow on you all.
There have been so many new arrivals at the halls that it makes my little head spin! Watch out boys, the way things are heading there are so many of you all, you'll have to work harder to get the ladies. Or the gents, if you swing that way. Now loves, this isn't done in any particular order. You know I love each of you very very much.
Derek Long and Andre and Aryana NG seemed the tech that was seen last hanging out with our beloved ticking bomb eater has managed to find himself not one, but two weapons!
Devon Hartman and Cameron Patel should win 'technician with the most intricate looking weapon' award. In fact, I'll make it up right now! If there was a beauty contest for weapons in their weapon form... oooh, now that's an idea, isn't it?
Mytha Grenville and Tristan Fairmont make quite a lovely pair, if I do say so myself. I don't mind being wrapped up in that kusuri-gama, if you know what I'm thinking.
Dominique Fabre and Istivan Szoke one has a sexy accent and the other... well, you know what they say. The bigger your weapon the bigger your... hands?
Shen Cai and Ivan, look, so mysterious with one name! But I'm mysteriouser. I don't even have a name. I beat you in that, you cross bow wielder.
Bianca Harris and Cammi Melville, finally an all female team! This is one team you won't forget: if only because the weapon is so hard to forget, once you've seen her.
I've heard that there is yet another pair who is still on their way, but never fear! I'll let you know once I heard more about the latest pair: you know I've got you hooked up to the latest gossip! The auction pair
Now you all stick around long enough and give me a chance to get to know all your secrets, and you'll get nicknames too you hear?
Guess which sexy pair has ranked up? This dangerous spitfire has grown in length and now reaches new lengths with his unusual appearance: we'll see how his technician is going to handle the new and improved bad boy! I've got to say, creativity should be used to deal with this *ahem* issue.

[Tech/Weapon RPs]
Now our girl 'most likely to get banned at a man joint' might actually get banned from the ice cream parlor. She doesn't seem to have learnt that you only lick men behind closed doors, not in front of little children!
Our little lamb seems to have developed a little bit of steel, with the help of her twin weapons! Guess who was spotted having a little bit of battle fun with yet another twin weapon pair? I won't ruin the fun and say who won, but it was exciting to see her fight back~
Our handsome general man (you know who you are sugar! Rawr) has been recently seen at Deathbucks being coerced into giving a certain technician a one on one training session! I wonder which one will survive the day? If he's offering classes, I'm offering myself as a student!
Two striking women (in their own way) visited classroom #7. Now I know why I go there (there's a reason those love potions are running low on stock you know... and let me just say, the WORK!) but I do wonder what they were intent on purchasing!
A certain one named hunk was seen entering and leaving the bar with one very dangerous nameless individual. Now I know I wasn't there to spike their drinks with love potions, so I wonder what happened after! Now if you've got a video, you know where to find me!
A skating match was held at the skatepark, and it was very nice to see those young boys working their god given talent! Now this was a treat for the eyes, except for the fact that sometimes they need a bit more practice. (Less sparring, more skating?)
Our resident razor wire might be beaten for the craziest weapon title. Has anyone actually seen the dragon mutilator in weapon form? Let's just say, I don't want him any where near me when he's in that form! Ouch.
Guess which sexy pair (I'll give you a hint: sexy accent) was seen in the library with ANOTHER sexy pair? Honestly, is there like a make out section to the library I haven't discovered yet? Because if there is, I want to join it too! I wonder what the four of them are up to?
Now this little bird has been told that a certain twin sister has been spotted at the gym! And not just working out with the machines either, but taking part in a certain exotic dance class? Let's just say when our priest sama found her doing moves fit for the bedroom (ooh la la!) he needed plenty of cold water for a shower~
Now we've got a special something something, (and don't think you're off the hook buddy.) I know how much people like to read human interest stories, and what is more human interest than hearing from my very readers? Now every time I send out this little baby, it'll be attached with a very special interview by ME! Aren't you like to be loved.
Now I hunted down a skate loving technician who recently paired up with twins. sad This sugar doesn't know who I am yet, oh but he will!
Quick! What were you doing the moment you found this interview?!
Well... I was about to grab my skateboard from my locket when this piece of paper fell out.
What can I call you sugar?
Derek is fine. Though, what's with the sugar and honey and dear stuff?
Boxers or briefs?
Boxers?
If you could give yourself a title, what would it be?
Hm... not really sure actually. I guess 'The Skateboarding Slasher' ... That sounds kinda lame actually. I guess 'Skater' is fine.
Uh huh. And your partner?
They'd probably be more like... 'The Twin Eyed Twins!' I don't know actually.
Now (seriously), how did you meet your partner?
I almost ran into them while grinding a rail at school.
Now (for fun, come on!) tell me one little itty bitty secret about your partner: Um... hm.. Andre talks in his sleep sometimes.
What was your first mission experience like?
It was interesting... well.. kinda disturbing actually. The guy, Red Rings? That was one sick dude. The victim was still alive! And well... he exploded into a bunch of blood and guts when he died... That... well... yeah...
What do you think shinigami-sama looks like under that skull?
... You mean that isn't his face?
Favorite hangout in deathcity?
Definitely the skatepark. Well. Not many others can really hang out with me there... but DeathBUCKS is pretty nice too.
Where (on campus) can you be found the most often?
Probably the courtyards and stuff.
And what are you doing there? (honestly!)
Er... skating?
Why does Alexis scare you?
Haven't met her. Is she like an old hag or something?
What do you think of meeeeeee? <3<3<3
... Who are you again?
You can tell me: what's your deepest darkest secret?
Um... well... I dunno if this is really my deepest or darkest but.. the missions? They're actually... kinda satisfying..
What do you think your soul looks like?
I bet its yellowish. If souls could have a skateboard it'd have one.
Out of everyone you've met, who do you think should be interviewed next?
I'd say either Z or Rainer. they're pretty cool.
Finally! Any quick comments?
What's this interview for again?
My second lucky boy was a weapon seems to be a bit too stiff and formal... but I know soon the people at Shibusen will probably whip him into shape! Er. Or something. Now sugar: I never said I wasn't going to tell. But I do this because I love you, okay?
What can I call you sugar?
My name is Shen, of the Cai clan, but Shen is fine.
Boxers or briefs?
...I don't think that's an appropriate question.
If you could give yourself a title, what would it be?
I have no use for titles. A rock has no name but can be used to light a fire, injure an enemy, weigh down paper. I want to be like that rock.
Uh huh. And your partner?
It's a little presumptuous, but I would like to aid Ivan in becoming the best TECHNICIAN of his time.
Now (seriously), how did you meet your partner?
On an August evening near bar Xen, I mistook him for a ruffian and meant to disable him. He has a very distinctive presence – almost hostile, if you'll forgive the term - but our wavelengths matched for an instance. The gods of fate must have been watching; I can't think how else it could have happened when I've been waiting for so long.
Now (for fun, come on!) tell me one little itty bitty secret about your partner:
...Is this going to be published?
In confidence, then. Ivan attracts rumours like light attracts shadows, lots of them malicious. You may have heard of some: a dog who can't be tamed, blunt as a spoon. But people are misunderstanding him and confusing his strengths. He doesn't pretend to be what he's not, and he never lies.
What do you think shinigami-sama looks like under that skull?
I don't think it's my place to assume. I'm sure his appearance is worthy of his venerable position.
Favorite hangout in deathcity?
I like the roofs and trees, especially at night when I can see the moon and insects. If you mean an actual establishment, I enjoy frequenting Nomnomnom Icecream Parlor. I'm... very partial to their Honeycomb and Rocky Road.
Where (on campus) can you be found the most often?
In the classrooms? If I'm not there, then most likely the cafeteria.
And what are you doing there? (honestly!)
Studying, for the most part. Ivan rarely accompanies me and I – rather embarrassingly - don't do well alone, so I try to find places that are crowded.
Why does Alexis scare you?
I'm not sure that 'scare' is the right word. We haven't required her assistance so far so I'm not sure if I'm equipped to give an opinion. Judging from the reactions of other pairs however, I would say that Alexis commands respect and expects no less than stellar performance. Ashie seems to think fondly of her, so it's possible that the truth has simply been lost in gossip and exaggeration.
What do you think of meeeeeee? <3<3<3
I'm sure that you're a lovely lady, but I haven't had the benefit of meeting you.
You can tell me: what's your deepest darkest secret?
I'm afraid of being discarded. I hope you'll understand if I don't pursue the subject.
What do you think your soul looks like?
Pure white, with a long tail. Ivan has told me that it looks like limp linguine, but I don't really understand the reference.
Out of everyone you've met, who do you think should be interviewed next?
I haven't made many acquaintances, but Ashie was very helpful during our introductory tour. Perhaps you could ask her?
Finally! Any quick comments?
Not that I can think of. Thank you for choosing me to be part of this questionnaire.
Like what you've seen? Or don't like it? Aw sad Well, let me know what you think and if I think you're funny enough, I might post you in my little newsletter!
