OW OW OW OKAY, jeez. God, having a job where you actually have to do things almost every day sucks.

ANYWAY.

MAKA~~~ PAPA'S SO PROUD OF HIS LITTLE SUPERSTAR ★

And he's so happy to get to ring in the start of another year with-- well, next door to you~~~! And dear god he has such a friggin' headache.

Damn. That was way worse than the last few times.

School'll reopen on Tuesday, so we can at least try to start getting things back to normal. Anyone who's got any injuries or just isn't feeling up to coming back yet can talk to their teachers or me to make alternative arrangements.

Doubt I need to tell you this, but let's try not to hold any of the things we did the past few days against each other.


Maka, how you holding up?

[exaggeratedly loud whispering]

HEY. DID IT TURN ON? Seems like the damn thing comes on every time someone moves while doing something embarrassing, so kicking it to the floor oughtta hit the right buttons, right? Oh, hey, I think the light's blinking--! ANYWAY.

THIS IS AN EMERGENCY. I AM BEING HELD CAPTIVE IN MY APARTMENT AND AM ABOUT TO GET CUT OPEN BY A CRAZY DOUCHEBAG AND THIS REALLY SUCKS. PLEASE SEND HELP.




...Huh, actually, I guess I can't turn it off now. Uhh...

Oh! Hey, kids! Since Shinigami-sama went back home, that means that I'M YOUR NEW PRINCIPAL! So-- um... Jeez, this probably wasn't the right time to make that announcement. WELL, DON'T GET ANY IDEAS THAT IT'S OKAY TO DISSECT THE PRINCIPAL TO GET OUT OF YOUR EXAMS, OKAY?






[sigh.]

[recording times out eventually.]


[ooc: lmao oh, i just realized that he can't logically reply to comments since he can't reach the communicator. 8| SO UH, NO REPLIES FOR NOW, I GUESS? SORRY ;;;;]

...Heh.

Damn, they grow up fast, don't they?

Hey--

[inhaling a bit of ash that's managed to get into the room, he chokes and starts coughing, which obviously is not great on broken ribs.]

Oh, FUCK.

[He covers his mouth, continuing with muffled coughs and sounds of pain for a few moments until the coughing gradually dies out. There's a short silence aside from some uncomfortable breathing as he waits to make sure it's really subsided.]

Nnh. Jeez, all right, let's-- start that over.

[Forcing a bright tone as if nothing just happened.]

Heyyyy, Maka~~~

I... really don't want to ruin the GREAT RELATIONSHIP we've had lately, but you wouldn't mind letting your old man crash on the couch for a little bit like a month or so, would you?

I don't think they really want me to stay in this hospital for my whole recovery, and my apartment obviously... isn't there anymore. And there aren't really any sexy nurses here like I imagined so it's a whole lot less fun that I liked to think.

MAKA~~~~

It's the Fourth of July~! You remember how we used to go out to the edge of town and watch the fireworks, right~? You always loved the ones that had a different color in the center than around the edges because they looked like big sparkly flowers! ♥

Come spend a little time this evening with your papa and I'll... set something on fire and it'll be like old times~~~~ And your friends can come too I guess! Hey, Chrona! You probably haven't gotten a chance to really see that kind of thing before, right? Don't you think it'd be fun~?


[Filtered from Shibusen students]

So, uh... does anyone know enough about chemistry or... I guess explosives, but uh to know how to make sparklers or anything? Is it too dangerous? I-I'm not so sure Maka's going to be crazy about my burning paper idea from last year.

Okay, you know what? Which of you shitty bastards are responsible for making my Maka feel so down on herself? Yeah, she can't make perfect decisions all of the time, but she is a damn good kid who I can guarantee is worth a whole lot more than you are.
