REPEAT: THIS IS NOT A CHAPTER OR IN ANY WAY PART OF THE STORY. The reason you didn't get a chapter last month is because I've been busy the last five months (and particularly the last two) writing the code for this game . Writing code is most definitely not my specialty, and I do so both slowly and...

CHAPTER FOURTEEN 2008-03-01         “No outsiders?” Hisao glances at Neko’s phone to make sure that’s really what it says, rather than her interpretation. “What’s that supposed to mean?”         “It means Mum wants to talk business, so don’t bring anyone who isn’t privy to that business.”         “...

CHAPTER THIRTEEN 2008-02-29         “You’re sure?” Miki asks incredulously, the movement of her arms causing the water in the tub to slosh about noisily. “I leave you two alone for thirty minutes, and this happens?”         Mira nods and snorts a bit as she stares in the mirror, fussing with her ha...

CHAPTER TWELVE 2008-02-18         “Aww,” Neko says, followed by a pout.         “Did you seriously think I’d say yes?” Sally shakes her head. “If this was happening at the school, they wouldn’t let you stay home to play nurse. It’s not happening here either.”         “I’ll be fine, dear,” Hisao rea...

CHAPTER ELEVEN 2008-02-17         The sign on the refrigerator reads ‘All-Hours See-Food Buffet!’ That is, if you can find food, you can eat it. Fortunately, there is plenty left over from the day before, and nobody is complaining or going hungry, though there is a bit of a bottleneck at the microw...

(continued from previous post)         Hisao hears the door slide open and close again, but as he is in the habit of breathing with his head turned to the left, he can only guess who it is until he spots the familiar aluminum leg. He continues swimming, intending to wait until the timer alerts him ...

CHAPTER TEN 2008-02-16         The note tucked under the base of the microphone is a mere three words long, but the origin, targets, and meaning are all quite clear. ‘Bed checks tonight.’ Hisao leaves it in its place, reckoning Neko might want to see it in its original state when she arrives. Unlik...

CHAPTER NINE 2008-02-14         Kenta is busy pretending to watch over the casuals running the track when he hears a loud snap! to his left. Turning slowly toward the source of the sound, he sees that the Student Council has caught up with him. Like most everyone, he addresses Misha.         “What ...

CHAPTER EIGHT 2008-02-10         Hisao is not the least bit surprised his phone wakes him before his alarm, set for seven, has the chance to do so. Grabbing it and glancing at the display does confuse him a bit.         “Umm, hello?” He makes no attempt to disguise his grogginess.         “I’m so s...

[continued from previous post]         Neko registers the voices on the roof outside and tries to tune them out, but they crescendo relentlessly.         “It might be locked,” she hears Hisao saying, just as the door swings open. She finishes writing down what she can, and pivots in her chair.      ...

CHAPTER SEVEN 2008-02-09         It hadn’t taken even a mention of beer to reduce Hideki to begging for a seat in the tiny, boxy kei car, once he overheard where the party was being held. Neko had just grinned as if to say ‘it’s your mess, not mine’, leaving it to Hisao to explain the purpose of th...

CHAPTER SIX 2008-02-04         When the bell rings, the students (save one, who doesn’t hear it) immediately bolt for the door at whatever speed their legs can carry them. Two have to turn back upon request.         “Suzumiya, Nakai, could you please remain for a brief moment?” After waiting for th...

Well it is noir, lol. Everyone has a place, and they all need to be dirty to explain why they keep going back into the scene. A couple characters are clearly bad news, even if they have charisma, but none can be all good because that doesn't fit with the premise and would look like a Mary Sue (which...

CHAPTER FIVE 2008-02-02         “Hold still, Mama,” Emi tries to say while holding hat pins in her lips, “so we can get the stitches in before the pins totally work loose.”         “I said we shouldn’t have waited so long to do this,” Miyū the dressmaker moans, but she sets to work installing a zip...

Found a broken sentence here  I should have seen that coming, and oh so I’m the backup now? run through Neko’s mind simultaneously It breaks down better on a book-formatted page. The italics used to indicate inner monologue don't stand out as much here. The "and" between the two clauses i...
