The wind doth taste of bittersweet,
Like jasper wine, and sugar,
I bet it's blown through others' feet,
Like those of... eh?"
*** Cute... what would Opus say, Grayson-chan?
Uh... "It seems I'm something of a yogurt-head, doesn't it?"
Just a guess.
And the hair! These people had the cleanest, most luxurious hair
Ukyou had ever seen. Beautiful hair was some sort of tribal
fixation amongst the Chinese Amazons, it seemed.
Explains their fixation with toiletries...
It is indeed a tribe of many fixations.
"T...tt...Tacchi! B... bb... be a go...gg... good keiki and g...

So... you've had Kuno-kouchou cast into the ninth circle of hell, have you?

You did a terrific job. Although I have to warn you - there may be an
unexpected challenge waiting for you when you get back home.

Many thanks,
