Sudoku?! Aw man, I turned my brain off for the weekend already. Guess it's time to break out that ATheNA I got in the mail today... Very Happy


You'd better share!

Anyway, just got off of chat with Yori. She's not taking things TOO well. But, at least she's still with us

Quote:
me: Yori-san!
yori: ^___^
hi, i am about to read my emails
anything new?
me: Not really.
yori: Oh oh!, i found something more
let me email it to you
me: Okay
8:03 PM by the way... You live in Japan, yes? My friend wants to know the proper way to eat rice with chopsticks XD
None of us have any clue
yori: i sent you what it seems to be part of the other file i sent earlier
silly you. japanese rice is sticky
not like american rice
8:04 PM me: Aaaah.
That explains a lot XD
Well, thanks!
By the way, did my email jog any memories?
8:05 PM yori: i am about to read it
8:06 PM YOU MEAN MY FRIENDS AT WORK ARE DEAD
TELL ME THAT IT ISNT THE TRUTH
me: Sadly, yes. I'm really sorry.
yori: WHY
WHY
WHY
what did they do
8:07 PM me: I dunno. I was sleeping when this happened.
You may want to ask MrToasty or Alex.
Gomenasai.
I know it's hard, but...
yori: thats me in the picture!
i dont remmeber any of this all
but
8:08 PM why am i here now?
me: We saved you from Junker, hopefully.
We traded our personal info for your life
yori: but you can die
8:09 PM how many people?
me: Don't worry about me.
yori: were they real people?
me: What do you mean?
yori: was the information real?
or was it a trick
8:10 PM me: I would think it's real.
But they also said YOU were dead, so...
Let's all hope and pray, yes?
8:11 PM yori: well i am alive, thank to all of you
sadly i cant remember anything Sad
at least all the cake was given
me: Yep. It helped us alot. Thank you for that
yori: when is this going to end?
when
how many more people must die
8:12 PM me: Well, that's what we're here for, right?
To stop this all before anyone else dies!
(Oh lord, I sound like some sort of cheezy anime character)
yori: not really
^___^
me: Well, you got over that quick Razz
8:13 PM I thought a good joke ought to cheer you up
yori: not really
i dont know if i should call their families
would it make it worse?
me: Well, can't blame me for trying.
Yes, I would probably call their families.
8:14 PM Just remember though that you were recently released from you-know-where, so...
I'd be careful
they may still be watching you
yori: i came to osaka
hopefully far far away from them
and i found my cat
Smile
no, but i think i should go talk to a priest.
8:15 PM there is a shrine nearby
i dont think ill be able to handle all this.
me: Stay strong.
We need you.
8:16 PM yori: someones knocking at the door, ill have to go
me: Be careful!
yori: i ll be
thanks for everything
bai bai
me: Seeya


P.S.: Kosmopol, I hope you don't mind me refering to you as Alex. I wouls assume that's what she knows you by, so that's what I used.

 		Crap! Big update to John's blog to go with all this! Damn, beer or ARG?

ETA: The picture names (00001, etc.) should go with the crossword if it wasn't obvious. Just mouse over the pics or open them and look at the address bar to see which image is which.

0000006.jpg might be the Promotion Hall (A-Dome) in Hiroshima but I'm not certain.

And I know I've seen at least some of the Japanese during this, but kosmopol will be on sooner or later and he'll have it instantly.

0000003.jpg looks like the crest on the flag for East Prussia.

Why is there a 0000009 on the crossword, though, if we only have 7 pictures? (0000008 is missing on the crossword, too)

 		Weird. It might have something to do with Yori's pics, or the PMs are holding back on us to make sure we go down to the wire.

ETA:
D'oh. Didn't notice the attachment John sent me earlier, so we do have 0000009... Wagner again, "The Ride of the Valkyries (Die Walkure)"

0000002 - Koi variety - definitely Kohaku:

EDIT:
Ride is Walkürenritt?
