Rekindling.

I'm making a declaration, here and now.

Brian's been gone on an extended vacation. He left the body when he came back home from MCLA. Since then, he's been left with a body who has been on a steady decline into despair. The once optimisic Brian had been falling, falling into pessimism, into despair. His usual positive outlook on life had begun to be replaced by negativity, and his heart was becoming stone. After only being home for nearly two months, he had been doing a lot of ranting and complaining. He was becoming his stepfather, and it had begun to get annoying, and it was starting to drive away his friends. Being surrounded by his cold family is making him become a shell of his old self. It took a "deconstructing" by his best friend, Sarah, who told him some blunt, frank truth...no wonder why she seemed distant, haven't talked to her in a week. She didn't want to hear his crap!

And now I'm sitting here with a big, dopey grin on my face. I want to run outside right now and laugh, laugh till I drop. I just may have found him again.

I feel like Scrooge on Christmas morning.

Tonight, for the first time in what seems like ages, I'll be going to bed wearing something I haven't worn in a long time...

...a smile.

Sleep well, everyone. Enjoy the fading hours of Valentine's Day while you can, preferably having lots of sex. For me, my hand will work overtime.

April, I love you. If you were here, oh, the things I would do...

Nighty night, all.

EDIT: And one more thing making me quite happy--Xenosaga: Episode 2 is released today!!!!!!!!
