Form is emptiness, emptiness is form,
Form is not other than emptiness, emptiness is not other than form.

You were right, it is very interesting. Not my exact cup of tea, but I'm intrigued.

I think I said something about an original sax piece to thank you? Yeah, well, I wrote it. I could come play it for you and your fiancée sometime.

Christ, Knoxious and I could teach English at this sorry school. It's not such a bad idea, you know. I don't think I want to get a job. Just not used to that sort of shit, and I don't plan on getting used to it, either.

I've been researching cellphones. Fascinating stuff, really. And by fascinating I of course mean boring as shit. Also, expensive. It's just not worth it, you know?

Poetry isn't sating me today. I'm restless. Need something to do.

Me too. I think I've mastered the microwave. Do you want to go somewhere?

[notwalking]

You did? Good for you, Knoxious Templeton, the ladies will come running!

Yeah. I don't know where, seeing as you can't drink and there's not shit to do here.

[adeeperforce.livejournal.com]

I want to get a bike. We could see what's out farther, and maybe bring some food or something.

[notwalking]

A bike's a good idea. I call handlebars.

Are you suggesting a picnic?

[adeeperforce.livejournal.com]

They're all yours.

Are you interested?

How exciting! I will have to ask Eclair if she is interested. And you have to promise to be a little more-- ah modest in your speech with her? I think that would get you an excellent reception!

[ Filter : Suou Tamaki ]

[notwalking]

Yeah, I didn't know she was your fiancée. Not that that means much to me, but I like you, Tamaki. You've got moxie, even with that father-daughter thing going on. So I'll work on that modesty thing.

[hostbu]

Ehh? What does 'moxie' mean!! Thank you though, I like you too. And I would like to hear the saxophone very much. Maybe you could play for me in the hallway if she refuses!

[notwalking]

Backbone. I like it.

I still don't get why the hell you sleep in the hallway, but different strokes, I guess.

[hostbu]

Ohh! You have moxie too then! After all it takes a lot of bravery for a man to speak to someone as wonderful as Eclair, even if it was rude.

To show her respect!!

That's one of the most celebrated paradoxes in Buddhist philosophy, as part of Prajñápáramitá, or the Heart Sutra.

Even in English, the novel is almost song-like. Ah, though I might be fond of it because I was in Hong Kong when it was published for the first time.

I would like to borrow it when you're through, if that's all right.

You know your stuff. I'm impressed. I did read that it's meant to be chanted. Sounds intense. The end of it, gate gate, paragate, I really liked that.

No shit, you were around then? Do share.

And yeah, sure. Where can I drop it off?

I hope you weren't expecting to be disappointed. I've learned a lot of things.

Hong Kong? That seems like a very, very long time ago. I'm not one for stories, really; but I should share what I can. When I was young, I traveled to Hong Kong, and stayed for eighty-two years. I was known as Qing-long Wei-Ji, which means "Blue Dragon Princess" in Chinese. I was quite a spoiled, unsavory child with a lust for sex, blood and control. I treated men like toys, played with them for a while, and then gracefully disposed of them. I was a Queen among the Black Society, and I did anything that I pleased. I studied kung-fu for eighty-years since my arrival. At that time, there were organizations in Europe that wanted my allegiance. So I did anything a person of my stature would do, I killed them; all of them. Assassins, ambassadors, I wasn't very picky. It was a lively time in my life, I do say. It is nice to reminisce.

Why don't you come by my recreational center tomorrow? I should be teaching a kung-fu class.

I have high expectations, so it's actually a compliment.

Damn. You call that lively? I call that insane. In a good way, you know. I like to think I've lead an interesting life, but I'd say you take the cake from everyone here. You ever thought of writing a book?

Kung-fu? I think I've fought one of your students. Will do, though.

That's very mild compared to the rest of my life. Though I've never considered writing a book.

Oh? Who, may I ask?

[flameregalia]

Cell phones, hm?

[notwalking]

Yeah, too expensive.

[flameregalia]

Untrue! They are worth any expense.

[notwalking]

Yeah, I don't work.

[flameregalia]

Too busy?

[captnkennit.livejournal.com]

Cellphones?

[notwalking]

They're pretty ridiculous.

[captnkennit.livejournal.com]

What is their point?

[notwalking]

Like a phone, but you can take it anywhere. Apparently you send messages or some bullshit. I don't care.

[flameregalia]

Both of you are far too cynical about this modern necessity. You'd like it.
