DISCLAIMER: Sohma Hatori and any of the mentioned characters from Fruits Basket belong to Natsuki Takaya. I only take them out to play for a while, and then put them back the shelf in mint condition.
A/N: Just wanted to share the IC posts on Hatori's journal when I used to play in a Furuba RPG I was in. This was originally posted December 26, 2005 at Hatori-chara's LJ. It was fun while it lasted…
SOLILOQUY
They say that this is the happiest time of the year, especially to the Western world that observes it with much fervor.
I find myself looking towards the Main House. They have started making the preparations since last week.
Quite frankly, it still amazes me how the Sohma household can still find a reason to celebrate. But then, they're not cursed like some of us are.
... cursed...
Or am I just rationalizing the misery that I feel?
It's hard to clamp down on the ghosts, of the memories that are not mine. They usually come to haunt me at these times when all is quiet, and all I can hear are the voices.
The accusations.
Thief.
Shutting out the vision in front of me is no use. I still see them in my mind's eye. Why must I carry this burden? And here I thought dragons are supposed to be the lucky ones, the most flamboyant of all.
Perhaps it was just a fairy tale to entertain the bored.
I head back into my room before I find myself wallowing deep in depression. I wish I can go out. But this weather has always been cruel to Akito, and, at any minute, someone will be knocking at my door, asking for my help. It usually is Akito. These are the times that I wish I can get away. But we all have roles to play. And I have to keep doing mine.
