I'm on this crazy journey so I might as well teach the kid a thing or two about a blade

Better get used to being called ridiculous nicknames

I should accept the fact that I'm not going home anytime soon

Just get adjusted to fleeing a country on the run like some criminal

Gotta admit that I won't be seeing my princess's real self for a while

I need to get acquainted with landing in a pile like some sort of garbage heap

Ought to make forcing the stubborn brat to bed a nighttime ritual

Guess I can pull an all-nighter watching over the princess

Might as well stick my neck out for them

Might as well call them a family

Hooray for Kuroganal prose!

Inspiration: sheer boredom, having no one at my lunch, and a line from one of the earliest scenes in the manga when they arrive in Hanshin Republic and Kurgy says, "Don't expect me to stick my neck out for you. Don't expect me to help you." *checks book* Wow, word-for-word. I like this series too much! Either that, or I just want to be an English major so badly as to resort to memorizing lines from one of my all-time favorite characters.

Hope you all enjoy!
