GillianSillis: Whoa, girl, you write so much in your reviews! Right, response to the first review is: How much you willing to pay for the information? You see, I have my eye on these really nice kunai to go with my Sakura-chan cosplay costume, and, well, it would be an awfully good gift (j/k) I take bribes in fanart and giftfic form only, sorry. Uh, yeah, the bill for Tatsumi's door... Don't worry, there's an omake where Tatsumi adds up how much money has been spent during the course of the fic and he freaks. This will not crossover with other anime, except for Yuzuriha. However my next fiction in this fandom, Tenshi no Yume, is one big crossover with various animes and games (see my profile). Yuzuriha is meant to bring Hisoka out of his shell a little. Is that everything for review one?

EternallyFaithful: Sorry, but as I explained above, the only way I'd tell you what's going on is fanart or gift fics. Seeing as I'm going to get neither everyone can wait until I've posted to discover who it is. However, you mentioned Tatsumi hiding accounts, well, all shall be explained... But not now mwahahahahaha!

AriMaxwell00909: Is it a typo when you said you'd "sick" your plushie army on me? I'd like to see how your plushie army stands up to my Penguin Hoardes of Doom. Mwahahahaha

GillianSillis: The Earl isn't responsible. I'm just putting that in now. For one, I am only really familiar with the TV series, therefore I had to research other characters such as the Shikigami, Terazuma, Oriya etc. So I tend to veer towards characters that I would know from the TV series. Sorry.

I find it amusing, no one has even mentioned Hijiri yet in speculation. Was he just not memorable enough?


"It's not fair! That was mine!" Yuzuriha yelled, attempting to grab some of the pocky back. Tsuzuki seemed to have died and gone to Heaven. He had enough baked goods to least him at least until Christmas.

"Mine now," The dark haired man replied. Yuzuriha pouted and sulked. Tsuzuki felt Inuki tug on his trouser leg and gave in. He'd tried to fight with the invisible dog before and had failed... miserably...

"Fine. I'm going in the shower. Help yourself to my cakes," Tsuzuki sighed. With on last mournful look at the sweets, he wandered into his bathroom. He stripped, purposefully blanking the brand on his shoulder. That must be what Hisoka as to do every day...

He stepped into the shower and paused before he turned on the water. Envelope? Oh God, the admirer had been into his /bathroom?

"Tsuzuki! Hisoka's here!" Yuzuriha yelled. Bringing the envelope and gift-wrapped box with him, Tsuzuki puled on a yukata, entering his lounge to see Yuzuriha embracing Hisoka, who looked a little flushed. Sickening jealousy sprang through Tsuzuki's veins but he tried to calm the bile rising in his throat when Hisoka saw him.

"Another gift?" The boy asked, prying teh fourteen year old off him. The elder shinigami nodded, giving the envelope to Yuzuriha to open as he tore at the wrapping of the gift.

It was a toiletries set. The shower gel, soap, shampoo and various other grooming products all had the same scent, Freshly Baked Cookies. There was also a bottle of cologne, a musky vanilla type scent that would match the cookie smell perfectly. It was called "Secret."

"My dearest Tsuzuki," Yuzuriha read aloud. "-because you smell." Tsuzuki frowned and Hisoka snatched the note away, reading it aloud properly this time.

"My dearest Tsuzuki," Oh how Tsuzuki loved to hear the boy say those words... "-because you should smell as sweet as you are."

And so Tsuzuki went to enjoy his shoulder, his mind reeling over who his admirer was and more importantly, what Hisoka and Yuzuriha were giggling about in the other room.


Sorry if you've spotted any typos. I got a new keyboard today and I'm still not used to it. Well, YOU try touchtyping on a brand new five minute old keyboard. I bet you don't manage it either!
