Hi and welcome back. Hope you had a good day off. Glad to hear 6 may be done. Look forward to it and the others, no matter how many chapters it takes.
How is Hatori being uncooperative?

Have you ever tried to get a sober responsible adult drunk realistically??? It is almost impossible. He is driving me to distraction.
-Mental picture time---
Rhoda-are you feeling the Sake yet? i have this great song lined up for you. Hatori- it is a nice brand, the flavor is slightly bitter. Rhoda- really how many cups have you had? Hatori- 3 or is it 4. I am enjoying the evening entertainments Shigure- Hasan have sooommeee more..... Hatori- Shigure I think we have had enough. Rememeber the children are here. Shigure- But Hasan it is good. Hatori- we are adults and must act like it *pouting dog* Rhoda- Hatori will you sing for us? Hatori- No I don't sing.
-end mental picture-
Does that give you a clue, I am at the limit. I might have to break character and have the gang hold him down and pour the sake down him. i don't know IT is bugging me that he isn't at least humoring me.

Well, his being uncooperative is certainly funny.
I wonder if he's like Hakkai and can't get drunk.
Maybe a song from his teen-age years would help him to sing. I'm pretty reserved when it comes to getting in front of people, but an old song with meaning, has me belting it out, much to the horror of everyones ears. Do you have songs for him yet, or is he still searching for the right one that he would like to sing?

If you can't get Hatori up, you could always have Shigure and Aaya sing something to him, from their Mabudachi trio days. That might get him up, or embarrass him to death. Both would be fun.

Well I do have one group insanity planned. I am still debating which song to do. I have had a lot of group suggestions. I am leaning towards 2 group songs one for the girls, with Ayame and Momiji (disgust among the boys will be rampant) and one of the older men doing something from their youth. The only song so far that has been suggested and rejected was a Shugire/ who let the dogs out thing. I got the song, yes I am such a sick monkey that I have to have the music for the songs I am writing. I even got a copy of the sound of music in an effort to get Hiro's and Kisa's song right. Twisted monkey? me? maybe....
The song just didn't say Shigure to me. Now the song for Hatori screams, Hatori sing me! sing me, so if he would cooperate (yeah right) It would be a fluid chapter with him doing it. But no he is a pesky grumpy sober adult! Sorry it is bugging me that he won't at least humor me.

Wow!!!! I'm impressed with the improvement you've made on your writing. You seem to be making good progress on beating down those grammar demons. They can be really difficult to deal with it. In school, I despaired of ever getting back a paper that wasn't dripping in red ink. On another note, I wonder if someone is going to rescue poor Kyo.

Being one of those pesky sober adults, I can tell you that it is hard to get us to do something out of character. Where I usually get snared is when someone starts something and then drags me kicking and screaming onto the stage, or dance floor. It's either look like an idiot or participate. I can see Aaya and Shigure doing that to Hatori.`
Why am I not surprised that Ayame and Momiji would join the ladies in a song? I can't picture Shigure singing Who Let the Dogs Out either.
It's not called twisted monkey,... It's called research. Yeah thats the word, Twisted research.
Going to go read chapter 6 now.

No he couldn't!! That would ruin his dignity, No matter how fun that would be!! I am going to have him sing a good song as soon as he cooperates. of course I could use that as a threat couldn't I, hummmm.

Drop something heavy on his foot, let him jibble and howl, and then have the others guess that it was the Lassie theme. Not very kind, but he'd safe his dignity and doesn't have to sing.

Well... he can't get drunk, he doesn't want to sing - what other options do you have? Outside of using a physical threat, I mean.
