Oops, sorry if it is not humorous…but it can't be helped…unless I am happy!

Disclaimer: Nope, no one is mine…

I think I heard a scuffle outside…

The door was knocked down. It, like the table, fell into the Universe of the four gods. My apologies to the people down there - a door in pure gold is heavy, though soft…

"How dare you! You confused my brother's mind! He is composing a piece for Suzaku to hear! I shall get you for this!"

I swear I am seeing double. Two sets of twins…

"Brother, I am useless, it is not their fault…I am sorry…"

I sipped at a cup of tea. Good, let's have an argument. I can waste time and get a good night's sleep. I took out a notebook and planned Seiryu's Seishi's romances. Oh, this one would love the miko…and let's make the Hell Boy love Soi! Nope, that won't work…

"We are the best of friends! We are doing the normal bandit call and dance! It gives us luck! We are not sorry" the one with the scar retorted. Wait! They are not twins after all…that person had blue hair!

"Now, what are we going to show Suzaku? My Meteor balls are not stunning enough without your inspirational music, Aniki…You are all going to pay for this! Think of something before I run my Meteor Balls through you!"

"How would I know what to tell you, huh? I will take the easy way! I will flame you to the next world! Are you going to fight me with that? No one is going to be afraid of your yoyos!"

"Aniki, I will start the violence. No offence…I am fighting for our survival! Meteor Balls! I am going to slice you!"

"Rekka Shien!"

Unfortunately, the fiery act of violence flamed my second table, including my love notebook, into dark ashes. They were blown away in a second…all my hard work…Damn, I am going to get you for this...that Red-head…

Suddenly, two fur balls sliced though the apple I was munching on. This is getting serious. No one dares to slice my apples for nothing! "Taitsukun!"

She did not pop up. Probably, she is weeping over her disgusting face. Perhaps there is really no remedy to it…I am going to fire her someday. I mean it. Why in the world did she appear at the wrong times?

I decided to watch them fight. After all, I could get a new table and a bag of apples if I wanted. I had miraculously managed to catch my apple tea. I sat back to see the show...

…Only to see the show looking back at me. "What are you looking at?" I barked defensively. Well, to ignore others is to be ignored…

The red-head looked at me and scowled. "Who are you? I will flame you! Rekka…!" he was stopped by his twin…best friend…whatever.

I was thankful. After all, I really don't want to be fried…though Seiryu would like that. We stared… and stared… and stared… and stared at each other…

Seiryu was unhappy. He never was. Is being a god of war that bad? Come to think of it, I am not too happy either. The couple of twins had to be thrown out due to bad behaviour (Seiryu's rules) but if they line up again, they would get another chance. I advised one of the pair to try that dragon's selection, as they loved blue. I had never seen so much blue in my entire life. They are an eyesore.

They never realised that I am the Suzaku they wanted to please. I guess they expected Suzaku to be invisible air.

-

Ashitare – he is the dog of the three-eyed monster Miboshi. Really, I did not expect him to sign up together with his master. Figures, though – a Hell Boy accompanied by a Hell Hound. Either way, they are not going to be good…applicants for my group. I practically had to drag him to Seiryu to get him away from me. I grant wishes, but this is simply too much!

The Hell Hound demanded to be chosen, scaring that dragon out of his wits. He wanted to be human. I granted his wish and sent him on his way. "Lizard, that Hell Hound, though he is Miboshi's pet, is considered Heaven's citizens. Do you remember how he scared off Tenkou with his ferocious barks?"

Seiryu had not forgiven me since. His door now sports a sign – "No one could enter this scared place unless given permission. Genbu and Byakko can enter at will. Suzaku, you are banished from this place! I will drown you if you dared to enter! Not one step, Bird Brain!"

Figures…I had chosen for him two applicants that he did not want.

-

I had finally remembered Nuriko. It took me a long time to remember her. She attended the school meant for gods with me before. I had no idea that she would be the famous winery owner and the prettiest lady in the whole of heaven. The wine she makes is magical and sweet…and it reminded me of somebody. I ditched my long list of applicants.

I looked back. Nope, it will not be enough. I tore the list into millions of tiny pieces. Woo hoo, excuse me mortal world, it is raining pieces of paper! I stormed out of my room and put my 'Out to Lunch' signs on the door.

-

"DA, no da…DA, no da…DA, no-"

There he is. He had his ever-smiling face on. This is…the weirdest magician in the Universe of the Four Gods, albeit the most powerful. "No da, Suzaku-kun. No da."

He is playing with a spotted cat. That cat is cute, but really extremely intelligent, kind of like the dog Ashitare, but sneakier. It was known throughout heaven that this cat could steal the magical peach wine from Nuriko without her noticing. It stopped when Nuriko heard the news, however.

"What are you doing, Chichiri?" I asked.

"Nuriko told me to make sure the cat is well taken care of, no da. I am paid well for this, no da. I must be the luckiest magician in heaven, no da."

He threw the cat up in the air again, humouring it. "DA, no da…"

He clearly ignored me.

-

I decided not to scare poor Chichiri with my news. I asked Nuriko to go instead. She…he…okay, she was not so excited when she heard it. In fact, she was angry. "Look, Suzaku-sama, if you want my best friend to go down and experience pain, you are in for it, Red Bird. No more wine for you. I will tell my sister not to sell you tea either."

Honestly, I think Seiryu could make better use of the fiery winery owner than I could.

-

She told him anyway. Chichiri was not pleased. After all, who would be if they had to be torn away from the easiest, but highest paying job in the whole of heaven? I sure would not. I am jealous of him. I get the easiest job, but I get no pay. How bad is that?

Seiryu had found his best friend to become a Seishi – a shogun, a blonde general. I guessed he gave up with the list too. That general is colder than Seiryu. I am actually afraid of him. I had better steer clear of that man…perhaps I will make his love life miserable. He does not look like the type to love, though…

We sure are taking a long time putting together a group of Seishi. We are only halfway through…

-

The Taitsukuns are utterly embarrassing. They wanted a Christmas party. If Seiryu and his minions had not knocked some sense into them, they would have already made preparations. Every day in heaven is Christmas. No need to be having a party on a random day.

Unfortunately, Chiriko, Nuriko and Chichiri are supporting their idea. I had to promise them a party when the Seishi are gathered.

"Don't count me in," Seiryu growled, scowling.

-

I wake up in the morning to see my Seishi looking at me. They seemed frightened.

"Chichiri," Nuriko whispered.

"Da?"

"You've never seen him down with sickness before, did you?"
