sailorhathorIf you've ever read "Sailormoon Dark" enough to remember what's happened and stuff, please read the following and answer a question for me. This is the first part of the next episode, and there's a big revelation here, but I'm not sure I got it across well enough without beating you over the head with it. I don't want to beat the reader over the head with it, really, so please let me know if I got the point across. What is the big revelation in this passage?
Small stones clacking together made a sound almost as loud as the growly purring coming from the raccoon, Rooreru, as he scratched his back against one of the posts of Su's bed. She sat at her desk, kneading at the bottom of a small suede bag filled with rune stones, stirring them up. They are what made the clacking noises as they tumbled together.
Rooreru hopped up on the desk besides where her hands were at work. "You seem troubled, Su," he commented.
"I have a bad feeling." A strand of silvery white hair fell across one of her eyes as she pondered the way the bag of runes felt in her fingers. "Oh... this is why." Su fished two jagged halves of a broken rune out of the little sack. "A rune has split itself."
"Hmm..." Rooreru grunted, looking the pieces over. "That is troubling. That is the rune of - "
"Partnership," Su finished. Fitting the pieces together so they formed a whole again, she continued, "Gebo. Well, this couldn't be any clearer. When the rune of partnership splits itself down the middle, it is sending a foreboding message. It means a very tight partnership will be split in two. Today."
"Will the partnership be broken up by force, or voluntarily?" the raccoon asked. He leaned over to examine the split rune more closely, black nose twitching.
Su finally pushed the hair from her eye and replied, "That cannot be known until the event happens. However it all goes, one thing is for certain - we'll all be feeling its ramifications for a long while. This will not be a desirable dissolution of a partnership. My feelings tell me it will be very bad."
"It must be senshi-related, then. Maybe - "
Suddenly, Su put a hand to the raccoon's snout. "There's someone in the hall."
A knock at the door came mere seconds later.
"Come in."
Tabitha entered the room. "Hey Su, you wanted me to remind you about your first appointment today. Tanaka-san comes at ten for a reading." She played idly with the doorknob.
"Thank you for the reminder."
Smiling at him, Tabitha said, "Hi Rooreru."
The chubby raccoon put on his best look of naive innocence. "Meow!"
In other news, I got sick of waiting for BMG Music Service to approve me and send me my CD's, so I bought the This Left Feels Right CD by Bon Jovi at Half-Price Books today. I really like the remix of "Wanted Dead or Alive," but otherwise, meh. Left me clamoring for the original CD's so I could listen to the songs the way they were supposed to be done. Usually, I love it when bands experiment, but the remixes were just kinda boring. And Olivia d'Abo sings like a freakin' man. I thought she was Richie Sambora at first. XD Of course, you know this means I'll be approved by BMG music and then have this CD twice. :P
