Dear Tomo, You are so cool! I beg of you, never wear that pancake makeup again, although it makes you look super cool! ^_~ Anyway, I have a few questions to ask. 1) Would you give me some tips on cosplaying you? 2) If you could trap Soi in your shin, what would you do to her? 3) Do you ever watch anime? 4) Can you help me master the perfect 'kakaka?' Thank you! Seisui

Dear Seisui, 1) Assemble the costume far in advance so you can get used to it and fix any problems. For the make-up, go to a costume store and purchase some good quality theater face paint, brushes, powder, and a finishing spray to fix the make-up in place (otherwise it will melt off) For the shin, you can buy a good sized clam at the grocery store, boil it, scrape out the meat and soak the shell in hot water and bleach overnight. Place it to dry upside down so it remains open a bit. 2) So many choices...probably let her watch Nakago and I... 3) Sometimes. 4) Just listen to it and practice into a tape recorder until you like the sound. Tomo

Dear Amiboshi, Fine! I'll go away, jerk!!! I mean, Ninjas kick people, its our job!!! *Kicks in face**Throws smoke bomb* (There is a bright flash, and I am gone!) The Black Ninja

Dear Black Ninja,     *Pinches nose, which is bleeding profusely.* Umb...Suboshi, do you hab a handkerjif? Amiboshie

Dear Miboshi,  Ah! You're back! Finally! Evil has returned to the world and life has meaning again! Thank all that is evil and unpleasant! Here. *hands Final Fantasy moogle voodoo doll* I kinda got bored and made this during my free time. XD It actually works surprisingly. A first for the clumsy and currently trying hard to be as evil as possible Forte. Have fun with it! Forte

Dear Forte,     Thanks! I'll enjoy this! *goes looking for pins* Miboshi

Dear Seiryuu Seishi,  -_-...I TOLD YOU NEVER TO DO THAT TO ME AGAIN! .....o_o*sniff* Geez...you guys won't believe how much I missed all of you...*dabs away a tear* Those three long, agonising months without evil, sarcastic Seiryuu goodness...sigh. Oh well...* digs around in sack* Guess what? Last Saturday I was left to my own whims in some supermarket with a fat wallet and I managed to get everybody a welcoming present >=D( no worries, no brain-haemorrhaging poems this time)...okay...* hands cookbook to Ashitare* it's "A Canine's Companion to Controlling Culinary Catastrophes" (not that I'm insulting your cooking or anything...YP tells me that you can make excellent pasta >D) and here's a grey apron. I just thought that maybe some of that fur has a tendency to get too close to the stove, so, you know.. ^_^'''...the cosmetics set and butterfly brooch is for Soi, the tight leather pants ( don't ask...it was my bro's suggestion o_O;) and the Journey to The West opera VCD is for Tomo, the H! ell's Angel's studded collar and matching jacket is for Miboshi, the black and red skateboard and helmet is for Suboshi, the do-it-yourself acupuncture kit is for Amiboshi (I didn't know what to get you...sorry...I figured you'd practically have a whole storeroom stacked high with sheet music already, so....) and last but not least, I got this for Nakago *pulls out blood-red flower from sack and grins maniacally* Here you go, just hold it gently and whatever you do, DO NOT TOUCH...the stem. *frantic look* Just hold on to that finger of yours; I'm going to get some antiseptic. Jials

Dear Jials, Ashitare: Your gift is accepted in the spirit it was given. While I sincerely doubt I'll need to worry about catastrophes in the kitchen any time soon, the sentiment is most appreciated. Thank you for the apron as well. Soi: These are wonderful, thank you! Suboshi: Hey, cool! thanks! Amiboshi: Um...thank you. I do have a lot of sheet music, and I definitely don't have an acupuncture kit. It's a very unique gift. Maybe I can test it out on Nakago when he's not looking... Tomo: If the flute-boy's face gets melted off from trying that on Nakago, it's YOUR fault. Thank you for the gifts, I will use them well. Miboshi: Um, what? Nakago: Is there a reason you're always trying to injure me? Seishi

Dear Tomo, Hi! I was wondering... They do this "big brother" thing at the Suzaku seishi website, so I was wondering... Will you be my older brother? *puppy face* Please? My other one is Mitsukake, and I have a little brother and a little sister in reality. I'm an actress, too! Oh, sorry about Nakago, but there are plenty more fish in the sea. I'm sure you'll find your one true love someday!! Leaboshi

Dear Leaboshi,     We did that for awhile, but suddenly literally every person we met wanted to be adopted. But I suppose I could. What sort of the shows do you act in? Tomo

Dear Seiryuu Seishi, Hi, I saw a letter about Final Fantasy characters, so I decided to write this. Who's your least fave Final Fantasy male? Your least fave FF female? And lastly, what do you think about FFX-2? My least fave FF guy is Sephiroth, because he's a *censored*. No offense, Rinoa fans, but my least fave FF female is Rinoa. First of all she's a "trouble magnet". Squall and co. have to save her like six-seven times in the game. She acts like a dense and airheaded ditz, too, and she's really spoiled---I mean, she insists that the Forest Owls call her "Princess". Aside from that she's a flirt. Can you believe this--- she ditches Seifer, after all he's done for her, for Squall during the ball, just because she thinks he's HOT! How shallow can you get? But luckily, Seifer and Rinoa didn't end up as a couple.She'd probably drive the poor guy crazy. IMHO, Seifer would most likely have a romantic relationship with either Quistis or his friend/subordinate/whatever, Fuujin. This is just my opinion, okay---I'm not trying to initiate a flame war. ^v^ Let's keep the peace, people! Himeko

Dear Himeko,     Nakago and Miboshi: We don't play them. Soi: 1) Zidane. Those inane attempt at flirting were ridiculous. 2) I agree completely on Rinoa. Tomo: 1) Barret. He's uncouth and obnoxious. 2) Dagger. The damsel in distress routine got old very quickly. Suboshi: 1) Edward. Boring and weak, not to mention completely useless. 2) Relm. What a whiny little brat! Amiboshi: 1) Rufus. 2) Selphie. I admit I thought she was cute at first, but it got to be too much. Ashitare: 1) Certainly Seifer; a woefully underdeveloped villian. 2) I found Rosa to be pathetic and weak as well. As for FFX-2, we think it's quite fun and cute, though not as nearly as good as FFX. Seishi

Dear Suboshi,  Hey Suboshi!! Yer so cool ^.^ One of my favorite characters!! ^.^ I was SO sad when I saw you die =( I dont think you deserved to die! You did nothing wrong ^.^ Wanna be my friend? *Hugs you* Cant ask you to be my brother cause I already asked Chichiri to my big brother and he agreed. TasukiCutie09

Dear TasukiCuite09, Thanks, I guess. But if you'd rather have some one-eyed spiky haired nutcase with a speech impediment, then that's your choice. *looks hurt* Suboshi

Dear Seiryuu Seishi, *Walks in with something behind her back* First of all, let me say, it's great to have you guys back! You have no idea how much of a wait it's been, and I have a little welcome back present to show you. *holds up a tape* It's a video I made, which I like to call "Too Sweet Yet Too Messy: A Love Story" It basically documents a "date" between the "good" me and her *ahem* money-grubbing boy toy! (You'd be surprised at how utterly oblivious those two can be.) Let's have a look... *puts tape in the VCR and hits "Play"* Here we go. THE SETTING: A bench in a quiet moon-lit park. Nighttime, approx. 10:30pm (or 2230 hours if you prefer military time), complete with a standard-issue full moon and crickets chirping in the background. THE PROTAGONISTS: Tamahome and his love, Miaka. *insert snide commentary and boos here* DIALOUGE "Tamahome...Miaka...Tamahome..." (You get the idea. It doesn't change). THE PLOT: The two "lovebirds" whisper their undying love in each others' ears and indulge in a whole lot of kissing. Suddenly, a dump truck appears, backs up to the bench (the two victims delightfully oblivious), and a tub of chocolate pudding dumps on both of them, covering them head to foot in sweet, chocolatey mess. *tape ends.* Well, what do you all think? Was the scenery appropriate? Should I have used banana pudding instead of chocolate? Should I have even used chocolate at all? I was thinking of using manure in the next video I make. Would that have worked better? Please, give me your comments and/or suggestions on my little love story. And let me know if you wanna help with the second video. Akaim (Mirror twin of the Suzaku no Baka)

Dear Akaim, Amiboshi: That was really unnecessary. Poor Miaka...though I guess she'll be happy about all the chocolate pudding to eat. Suboshi: Pudding?! Come on, you can do better than that! Acidic chemicals, magma, use your imagination! Ashitare: You certainly had my hopes up for a moment there, but your follow through could have been better. Why not back up a cement mixer next time? Soi: At least use something that stains, so maybe Miaka will be forced to actually get a new outift! Miboshi: You can't go wrong with flesh eating demons; that's what I suggest for next time. Seishi

Dear Tomo,  konnichi wa,Tomo!!!! this is my first time writing to any of the seiryu seishi cuz I just barely found out about this page. Do you like the suzaku no miko at all? everyone else seems to like her a bit. so what about you? Alec-sama

Dear Alec-sama,     "Everyone else"? With the exception of Amiboshi, who, frankly, is a moron, none of us like her. Welcome to the page! Tomo

Dear Ashitare,  What is the question (or questions) that you've never been asked that you'd like to answer? Thank you! Seisui

Dear Seisui,     That's a very interesting question, actually. It's been very surprising that I've gotten so many letters recently; I really haven't put much thought into what I'd like them to ask since I never expected so many questions. It's all rather charming. So unfortunately, I don't really have an answer for you. I really have no particular question preferences. Ashitare

Dear Soi, Hi! OK, I REALLY need your advice on this. I had a birthday pool party was last July, and invited my boyfriend. My friends teased me, which was expected, but what I didn't expect was my "friend" flirting with my man! I was literally having to pull her off of him, and he didn't seem any happier about it. Later she apologized, but I could tell she was lying through her teeth. The worst part? They've known each other awhile (they're neighbors), and she didn't show any interest in him till she found out he was my boyfriend! Plus, she's in love with EVERY SINGLE SOLITARY ONE of my friend's boyfriends/crushes, too! Leaboshi

Dear Leaboshi,     I advise not inviting this "friend" to any more parties, or anywhere else. Although if your boyfriend was pissed, hopefully that means he's faithful to you and it isn't a problem. Have you talked to her about it? Do you still want her as a friend? If not, just try to stay away from her. Soi

Dear Amiboshi, hello. I'm sorry about what Tomo did to you. I just read through your profile on a website. Did he really hate you or something? Kagome Adams

Dear Kagome Adams,     It's not so much that Tomo hated me in particular. It's just that he doesn't love anyone but himself. And he wants to get in Nakago's pants, so he was trying to get on his good side by doing what he thought Nakago would want... Amiboshi

Dear Seiryuu Seishi, Finally! You're all back! Just wait until Jials hears this! I'm so happy! I've been checking your site for....centuries! So....had a good holiday? Sorry, but Jials isn't here right now so there won't be a (cheesy)welcome back poem like the last time. XD YP ( Jials' moody friend)

Dear YP, Nakago: We had a good holiday, though moving was difficult. Ashitare: I had a quite nice break, except for the bit about moving. I caught up on my reading, discovered a lovely new tea shop, and taught myself to make Bailey's Irish Cream Cheesecake, which I believe everyone found to be quite delicious. Amiboshi: It's great to be back! I just relaxed, mostly, and learned some new flute pieces. Oh yeah, and Suboshi and I went to a water park! That was a lot of fun. Tomo: I had a lovely time; took in some local theater. Soi: It was nice, though Tsutsuji's visa problems were troublesome. Luckily everything seems to have been cleared up and are back to normal! Seishi

Dear Tomo, Hey clown-boy, don't you ever get tired of wearing alllll that make up, the cloth, etc... ? besides, it make you look kinda stupid half the time. x-p Chroneraven

Dear Chroneraven,     No, and this is not the way to get on my good side. Tomo

Dear Suboshi,  I have a question for you: Even if you just HAD to kill Tamahome's family, why did you have to slaughter little Yuiren? She was too adorable to die! OK, and tell Yui that I think that you two would make an AWESOME couple (once she FINALLY realizes that you love her) Thanks for your time! Seisui

Dear Seisui,     Yuiren was my least favorite; she was too cutesy to be tolerable. And thank you, I think so too! Now someone just has to convince her of that... Suboshi

Dear Nakago, Hey nakago. you're such a hottie and you never like anyone. WHAT'S WITH THAT?????!!!! NOT FAIR!!!! Erutis(hey aya-chan, it's ME!!!

Dear Erutis,     Why is it not fair? Am I required to do so? Nakago

Dear Tomo,  Tomo. *sigh*..... *even bigger sigh*....*big breathe* WHY, OH WHY IS IT ALWAYS THE HOT ONES THAT ARE GAY??!!! WHY-Y-Y-Y???!!!!? Erutis

Dear Erutis, Just lucky I guess. Tomo

Dear Suboshi, I love you I am your biggest fan! What kind of girl would you go out with? Joycelyn *wink* =D

Dear Joycelyn,     Lady Yui. And thanks! Suboshi

Dear Tomo, Would you please, please, wipe of your make up so I can see your face?! PLEASE!!! Oh by the way I'm new here would you please show me around? *grabs his hand* And don't think I'm insain, I'm not I am just such a big fan!!! Can you Ka Ka Ka for me? Aya the fire girl

Dear Aya,     No. As for showing you around, well, there's the letters, our message board, links to our favorite pages, picture of Tsutsuji and Katsu's cosplay and fanart...um...that's about it. Kakaka! how's that? Tomo

Dear Seiryuu Seishi, WELCOME BACK ^_^ ::hugs everyone and hesitates when seeing Nakago:: Evil Koryu

Dear Evil Koryu,     All: Thank you! Nakago: And thank you for not hugging me. Seishi

Dear Nakago, Your HILARIOUS *LAUGH* the way your so evel!! Your right strait to the point! When you do anything thats really evel does it excite you or something, because when you did do something really evel *squeal* Oh my gosh you face looked so evel and it looked like you were Loving it!! Kat182

Dear Kat182,     "Evel"? Ah...evil. How I feel about it isn't really a factor. Nakago

Dear Tomo,  Yo! Ok....must be the first time I'm writing to you and I hope I don't screw this up. Oh, and before I go any further, I'm sorry for any irritating questions or grammar and spelling mistakes. Now....down to business. My friend would like to try a new look, mainly gothic, Unfortunately she knows nothing about the gothic look and I basically do not normally fuss about my dressing. Seeing as you are the best at fashion, do you have any tips for my friend? Forte, the unfashionable one

Dear Forte,     I'm not familiar with that look, so I passed the letter to Katsu: Hmmm...let's see, what tips do I have... It sort of depends on the sort of Gothic they're going for, honestly. The main style variants I know of are punk, cyberpunk, cutesy, and classic. Classic goth is the most costume-y type stuff - frock coats, poet shirts, things like that. With that, you want sombre colors, authentic (or as close to as possible) clothing, and no makeup. For women, the main thing to look for here is a good corsett or pin bodice, and a long, flowing skirt. These are the real deal, and there aren't too many of them around any more. Punk gothic is where you get the fishnet and leather. Dog collars, stuff like that. You do white face and eyeliner, stick to mostly black with band logo or counter culture slogans on your shits. Doc martins are the best shoes, or just army combat boots. Do funky things with the hair, either dye it black or strange colors, spike it, etc. Punk gothic is the most popular one right now, so you can buy stuff for that look at almost any mall - look for Hot Topic. Cyberpunk is like a little sub category of punk. It's got the PVC for the most part, sometimes patterned with "circuitry". Again, mostly black and dark reds and blues with the occassional bit of crimson. Shiny metal accessories and extremely cool sunglasses a must. Think just about anything that you'd see in "the Matrix" and that's pretty much it. Cutesy goths just need to die. It's a popular look, and it's stupid. That's the people that sort of have the punk thing with funky hair and lots of earings and other piercings, but they're wearing 80s t-shirts with My Little Ponies or Strawberry Shortcake, bright colors including pink (hot pink, I might add) and accessorize with things like lunchboxes. They're annoying and make most real goths roll their eyes. That's another one you can shop for at Hot Topic. Hope that helps. Katsu

Dear Ashitare, Hi! Have you read the Harry Potter series? Who's your favorite character? I like Sirius the best, because of his love for mischief. I'm sort of like that, myself. Maybe that's why my mom wanted to be my teacher this year. She got what she wanted. Anyway, I have to got, my dad has to use the phone. Leaboshi

Dear Leaboshi,     I have indeed read Harry Potter - it's an enjoyable little fantastic journey, in my opinion. My favorite characters are two-fold: Professor Snape, because he's the only main character with a brain and even a shred of wite about him, and Professor Sinistra, who has no speaking parts but was quite the Ravenclaw fox in the movies. I love an intellectual beauty... Ashitare

Dear Nakago,  Hey there! hope you're doing okay. have you ever loved anyone at all? Do you like Soi, Tomo? Anyone??!!!! Alec-sama

Dear Alec-sama,     Only Soi. Nakago

Dear Seiryuu Seishi, I have a problem. One of my "best friends" stole my boyfriend and got dumped. Before that she wrote a nasty letter saying all this rude things about me, stuff that I sholdn't wright down on here. She tld me herself she wasn't interested in him, just proving that shes more atractive than me, but her plan shatterd now shes crawling back to me saying shes sorry. All the way through 4th grade shes been nice to me what should I do? NakagosGirl5

Dear NakagosGirl5,     I'd question why you'd want the friendship of a person who stole your boyfriend to "prove she's more attractive" and then write nasty things about you. Doesn't sound like much of a "friend" to me. Soi

Dear Ashitare, *Pours two cups of tea* It's good to have you and your fellow seishi back. I imagine moving around can get pretty tiring after a while. But anyway, please feel free to relax and unwind for a little while. For starters, this tea that we're drinking is South African bush blend, and it has a very smooth yet somewhat smokey feel to it. Very pleasant to the senses, and since it's caffeine free, it's perfect for the evening. (Jeez, I'm starting to sound like an advertiser...but I digress.)*sips tea* Very refreshing. Shifting gears, a little, I have to ask, what books are you reading these days? I am in the midst of another Mercedes Lackey binge reading "Winds of Change" which is part two of a trilogy I started a while back but never finished. I also read the latest "Harry Potter" book. I tore through it in four days; it was that good. Have you read it yet? If so, great, if not, you will love it. But make sure you've read the first four books. Anyway, as always, it was good talking to you, and I know you want to tear into the next literary masterpiece...which reminds me, have you read "Life of Pi" yet? I hear that's a great story. Please let me know how it is, and enjoy the tea. Lady Shera

Dear Lady Shera,     Thank you for the tea, my dear. I have not yet read it, but I will certainly add it to the list. Ashitare

Dear Seiryuu Seishi, allrighttt... question, who is your fav. Ayashi no Ceres character and why? Chroneraven

Dear Chroneraven,     Please check the archives. Seishi

Dear Suboshi, You are so cute! It's unfair...only unattainable guys are cute and sweet and nice and...well everything else that a girl wants! *sad sigh* darn... Joey (not a guy! Short for Joanna)

Dear Joey,     Hey, not all of them are unattainable. Don't worry! ^^ Suboshi

Dear Seiryuu Seishi, Hey guys I know I have only writen one letter but my name is changing from Aya the Fire girl to Aya gurdian of the moon. Aya Guardian of the Moon

Dear Aya,     Good to know. Thanks. Seishi

Dear Suboshi, know you were ubset about you brothers death but that doesn't mean you should kill Tomahome's family. You might have misunderstood (like you did). You shouldn't murder just because your unhappy, and how Tamahome cried made me sad *sob* waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. NakagoGirl5

Dear NakagoGirl5,     Oh, cry me a river. Making Tamahome upset was the entire POINT. Suboshi

Dear Seiryuu Seishi, Yeah! Glad to see you guys are back! I don't really have much to say right now. See ya later!! Kaikagurly

Dear Kaikagurly, Amiboshi and Suboshi: We're glad to be back as well! Ashitare: I suppose it's nice to be back, though it will cut in on my reading time... Soi: We're very happy to be back! We've missed everyone! Seishi

Dear Nakago, *returns with antiseptic* So sorry about that....*frightened face* don't dismember me or anything please...I still require full use of my limbs to complete my school project...*stitches finger back on for Nakago and draws skull on plaster* sorry ne...*mournful face* that flower was a rare species of Limb-eating Lilies...but I'd already house-trained it...probably you just smelt really good that's all...*very, very mournful face* Well, look at the bright side, Soi can do some "healing" for you....*pervy grin*..................*looks at Nakago's face and grin fades* okay okay...what present do you want? I'll see whether I can make it up to you...*peers sadly into flat wallet* Jials the FULLY REPENTANT and REMORSEFUL pervert who is VERY SORRY THAT SHE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR LOSS OF.....LIMBS....o_O;;

Dear Jials,     I don't know, I don't think I want another "present" from you. *nurses wounded finger and scowls* Nakago

Dear Nakago,  I kow you like toying with Tamahome but is there more to it? You kissed him and I saw a picture where you licked him (did you really?). Please answere all my guestions clearly. NakagosGirl5

Dear NakagosGirl5,     Since I have no idea what you are asking, perhaps you ought to try asking your questions clearly first. And yes, I did, to throw him off. Nakago

Dear Seiryuu Seishi, OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO You are back i missed u guys sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much!!!! ive been wanting to ask u guys this question for the longest time.who is your favorite ruroni kenshin charicter? kisses u all!!! even nakago!!! cute

Dear cute, Ashitare: I'm partial to Megumi - she's a well educated woman, and quite the fox. Suboshi: I like Saitou! He's amazing! Amiboshi: I like Yahiko! He reminds me a lot of Suboshi...and myself. Tomo: I'm partial to Hiko, myself...mmm... Nakago: I admire Kenshin's sword skills. Soi: I really like Kaoru. She's a strong woman and very kind. Miboshi: Shishio. Seishi

Dear Soi, Yer Hott! Will you go out with me?! Pleeeease! Wrestling19

Dear Wrestling19,     I don't think Nakago would like that much. Soi

Dear Nakago,  Hi! I was just wondering why you are on the evil side I think it's awsome that you are but I was just wondering. So is it fun to control evil? I guess I would kinda want to but I don't know! How did you find out you were a Seryuu Seishi? This was probably in one of the episodes but I have a short memory sooo you can't blame me! Well acually you can but PLEASE don't!!! Aya Guardian of the Moon

Dear Aya,     I learned that when my village was attacked (anime episode 52) I don't particularly enjoy it. Nakago
