Even if it is just waffles, I cannot help but feel wary about them sharing waffles together. I would like to say that it has everything to do with trust, but it has to do with the feeling of jealousy that courses through my body. Every time I have imagined it prior to signing into this journal, I feel no different than I did when she first announced her engagement to Nagi; I feel somewhat more secure in the fact that she has a close relationship with Nagi and that she claims that Kabane is a person who is much like her, but I still feel uneasy. I will have to stymie the rage within, because this is not a situation that calls for a demon. I should be comfortable with this, but I find myself constantly thwarted from my own desires in remaining enamoured by Aya's existence.

There are more important concerns here. I have a promise to uphold, and remaining jealous will not guide me toward keeping that promise. I cannot keep you safe if I am jealous, Aya, because I will be blinded by what it is that I wish to see even if that is far from the reality. I cannot protect you if I am not there as a friend. I have made that promise, and it is the one thing I can maintain in this place full of enigmas. Even here, we remain uncertain, and I still do not have faith that they are changing things for the better. You are helping toward what will make things better, though, and I think you can do your part, Aya.

And I will always remain at your side. Our connection is that of a promised protection and nothing more. I will not be concerned about the implications of White Day. Even if I would like to purchase you a gift in return for your rose, I think it might be best if I refrained. Your happiness is of a greater concern, and your happiness will be linked to Nagi no matter how much I deny it.

I'll be able to remain this way, Aya. I understand your connection now.

I've finally been called back for a job! It's not anything like yours, Aya-chan, but I look forward to working there. I'll be starting at Aerocrombie and Eagle tomorrow afternoon. It's a little different from anything I've done before, but I decide it's better to have a job than no job.

Ah! Congratulations, Senpai! When do you start? Ah, will you be working after school and on the weekends? Will I not be able to see you as much? Well, you have a job, right? You'll be making lots of money! Are you planning on saving it for something special?

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

Tomorrow after school! I don't think I work that much, and I've told them that I need the weekends off for training. They understood that! I don't know what I'll be saving for yet.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

Is there anything you wanted that you couldn't get?

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

I've always been so caught up in training that there hasn't been anything. I could go looking around though.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

Maybe we could get something for your training....

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

I could use some more clothing for training! It might make it more comfortable.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

You can have a goal!

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

Some of the clothing at the store seemed comfortable enough for it, but it was a little expensive. I'll have to try somewhere else.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

Don't you get a discount because you work there?

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

They're ... ah, of a higher value than most things, even with that.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see. Well, we can go out looking when we both have a day off!

This is exciting, isn't it? We both have a job! I wonder what Neechan would say!

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

I think that she would be worried about us neglecting our training.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

She would say something like that...

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

But we'll never neglect becoming stronger.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

Of course not!

But I think... that it's nice to have this time so we can grow on our own, don't you think so, Senpai? I've always had someone to guide me. My Otousan, Okaasan, Niichan and Neechan... but right now, this is my chance to see what I can do for myself! Really and truly! We have each other to depend on, Senpai!

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

We'll always have to be ready, even if our previous battles no longer exist. It will be interesting to see where our training takes us now.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

Mm! I'm going to grow for myself this time. I want to see what kind of person you become, Senpai.

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

I've been looking for who I am for some time, Aya-chan, and I hope this place can help.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it will.

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

If you believe, then I will have no problem, Aya-chan.

[dozenpapercuts.livejournal.com]

Hey, I work there! I'll be seeing you around, I work on the sales floor. I'm Junpei.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

Ah, I'm Masataka-san's friend, Natsume Aya. It's nice to meet you, Junpei-san.

[dozenpapercuts.livejournal.com]

It's nice to meet you too, Natsume-san.

[ryuume.livejournal.com]

We might meet when I come to see Senpai, so I wanted to introduce myself. Mm, it's nice to meet you too!

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

I've seen you in some of my classes, I think, Junpei-san. It's nice to know I'll have a chance to get to know someone better outside of school.

[dozenpapercuts.livejournal.com]

Yeah, same here, man. I know some people, but I mean, not all of 'em go to school, y'know? I only know a couple people at school, and there's only a few people here from home.

Anyway, dude, you're gonna like working at Aerocrombie. It's a lot of fun. Well, unless something gets misplaced, then it kinda turns into a headache, but otherwise, yeah. It's awesome.

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

I know Aya-chan, but it's a little difficult adjusting to this place and trying to make new friends. I've come from a world where fighting was a focus. I gained most of my friends through that, but there isn't the same option here. Sifu Vilma's classes are helpful, but there's always training.

I've never had a job like this before! My father had me do some things for him for money, but it wasn't really the same. It's another part of adjusting to this world.

[dozenpapercuts.livejournal.com]

I... kinda know what you mean. About the fighting thing, 'cause that's how I met all of my friends. I mean, what you mean is probably different from what I mean, but yeah. Sorta the same thing.

It's not bad, I mean, you're on your feet the whole time but it's not really all that tiring. Or, I guess I'm just used to running around a lot. I don't think you'll have any trouble.

[becomingademon.livejournal.com]

It seems that a lot of people here have come from worlds where their purpose is fighting. It's why I believe so many are prepared to continue fighting. It almost seems like they would want a fight, and I can't say that sometimes, I am no different. It's better to have no trials like that, but the routine of throwing ourselves into a fight will be one that is hard to break.

I don't think being on my feet will be a problem! I've grown used to running miles during a day for training.
