[Well, someone is getting married. Here, of all places! Ling thinks it's a bit reckless, but there's no harm in a little fun. So he devises a filter and doesn't even bother disguising his voice.]

[Filtered To Males Only]

Hello! My name is Ling Yao. I'm sure most of you heard about the recent wedding about to happen. I've been thinking about marriage myself. After all, I do have to eventually pick out fifty wives when I return home. But it wouldn't hurt to find someone here as well. I could be here for a very long time and Luceti does happen to have an exceptionally stunning population of women. So, what do you say that some of you suggest your top five most beautiful women for consideration. Feel free to elaborate on what makes them an excellent candidate for marriage.

And please, let's not get into the matters of Xingese politics. It's really just the way things are, so I'd rather not talk about it much.

[It would ruin the fun!]

(ooc: Please, please, please go all out with the thread jacking! I'm not even kidding. I want to see shit hijacked all over the place up in here. Hell, Ling himself might not even reply to some of these threads unless they interest him personally. Go wild, please! It'll be fun, honest.)

I'm stayin' well outta this! I'm in enough trouble with the ladies as it is!

Good luck with that.

Come on, old man. Surely you have some stories to share for everyone.

More than enough of 'em. That's why I'm staying tight lipped. Can't have you guys takin' all the beautiful women now can I?

Fine. Then it wouldn't hurt for you to share some advice for the younger ones, wouldn't it?

I've got an age limit, if they're not old enough then I'm not interested in them. You kids are on yer own with the younger lasses.

Those are fair conditions. I wonder if they're making their own list at the moment.

... Or doing other things as we speak, but it's more fun to think that they're making a list.

Ya know a while back someone did somethin' like this before and the girls found out about it. Ya see why I'm not sayin' a word? They probably already know.

Ah... Now that's something else I didn't know about. I would say that's smart thinking on your part. I think I'll keep my lovely list of ladies under wraps for now.

Ya'd hope they ladies would be happy to be mentioned durin' something like this, but then ya get the ones who moan that nobody thought they were hot enough. Ya just can't win! They'll complain about it either way!

There's just no pleasing them sometimes. Especially when it comes to the serious minded and strong willed types. You try to crack a good joke at them and they look at you like you're the biggest idiot to walk the earth.

[Oh hey, that's exactly the type of woman his onetruelove was.]

Urgh, tell me about it! Seems like no matter what ya say unless it's serious then they're never gonna be amused by it. The only way past that I found was ta have them drink a little, some women loosen up after a glass or two.

Really? I can see how it's effective. Did they ever crack a smile whenever you were in pain of some sort?

After what happened last time, I don't blame you.

[He remembers what you said about Charlotte. And Noel. But he's got it more in good humor this time.]

Awww, come on! Give this old man a break! I could do so much worse.

Not so eager to jump in this time, huh?

[Not that he has complete memory of the last time something similiar to this happened, but w/e.]

I already had my happy ending.

[There's a pause where Yuri tries to remember what Raven's referring to.

.......

... Oh, right. He's not completely sure, but he has an idea, at least. So, he'll just shrug to himself.]

I guess things like that really do change people's attitude towards some things.

[Might as well just stick to light teasing. No need to get serious in such an open setting.]

Huh? No! Don't take it the wrong way, I'm still judging which girls are the hottest and worth my time! There's just no point in sayin' it on here since they're bound ta find out about it. I've got enough trouble on my plate, I'll let the other guys take the rap fer this little incident.

[Besides he has his own list.]

Huh. Well, never mind, then. I guess nothing can change an attitude like yours. [a quick pause, then--] ... Although, I can't exactly say I blame you for staying out of this, either way.

Speakin' of which, what are you doin' in a journal entry like this? I never pegged ya down as the kind of guy who liked anythin' beyond girls with cat ears.

[-------IGNORING THAT.]

I'm just passing time.

[... Maybe not completely ignoring that. He sounds kind of annoyed. Really, of all the things those stupid trees could've said about him ...]

[He didn't get it from the tree, he got it from your lovely reaction to Rita's outfit back home. Sorry dude.]

Huh, funny way ta pass time. Don't ya usually go to the battle dome fer somethin' like that?

[w/e w/e. No need to blurt it out in an environment like this anyway, you old fart B(]

I just finished up there. There's only so much I can do before I run out energy, you know.

[... Never mind that it took nearly two hours for that to happen.]

Excuse! My boy, there's no shame in admittin' that you wanna enjoy the finer gender once in a while! We're all in the same ship!

Haven't I already said in the past that I'm not interested in talking about this stuff with you?
