Dear Diary,

Is that how you start one of these? I'm sure it is, isn't it. According to Master, humans write in books like these to remember what happened in their life. And they always start with something like that. Dear Diary. Or Journal entry. Or Captain's log. Star Date. A little introduction to tell someone reading it that they're beginning an entry.

So I think I'll use Dear Diary. Its simple and straight to the point.

Dear Diary. This is the first entry that I've written for you. My name is Reisen Udonge Inaba and I am a rabbit from the moon.

Its obvious, diary, that you don't believe me. From the moon, you say. How ridiculous. I've never known of rabbits to exist on the moon. By now I'm used to such reactions. After all, whether you believe it or not, I am indeed a rabbit and I am indeed a former inhabitant of the satellite that orbits this planet known as Earth.

At the current moment, I live with my Master, Mistress Kaguya, and another Earth Rabbit in a place called Gensokyo.

My master, Doctor Eirin Yagokoro handed me this notebook and said something along the lines of "Reisen, today you will keep a diary. I want you to record your daily life. Every night, write an entry about what you did that that."

Secretly, I suspect she intends to read this diary to see what I do when she doesn't give me work. Oh, she'll probably punish me if I write something bad. I must be careful.

So, diary, I will be putting an entry in every day from here on. I assure you, it won't be interesting nor will it be anything incriminating. I am an ordinary rabbit, after all. Its not like I get in harrowing adventures every day.

...Well, there was that one incident with the Moon disappearing. But that's in the past.
