[Zoisite]
You're going to have to talk to me eventually.

----

[Usagi]
I suppose you'll be wanting that explanation.

[Seeing as this entire entry is supposed to be backdated to shortly after this failthread, Yuan's sitting just outside the entrance to the forest, leaning back against a tree. His journal's open in his lap while he waits for an answer from either of the two people he just tried to contact. If one were to look closely, they'll notice he has a black eye. Long story short, Zoisite threw a journal at him and it didn't end well.

Now he's been kicked out of his own house. He stupidly left the key inside when Zoisite locked the door behind him.]

Why would I lie to you?

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

Because you have before?

[Filtered]

[fortunefail]

Have I? I distinctly remember telling you that I'd keep an eye on Zoisite and make sure he wouldn't attempt to hurt anyone. That's exactly what I did.

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

It's like the same thi--Wait. What happened to those curtains, Yuan?

[Filtered]

[fortunefail]

... What?

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

The curtains. You made an entry exclaiming, and I quote,"WHY ALWAYS THE CURTAINS?!" I thought something was off about your explanation. OH!

I just remembered something else! Haha. I'm on a roll. And what about all the food you bought? Hm?

[Filtered]

[fortunefail]

What about it?

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

Yuan! You lied! Just admit it so I can win and forgive you and all is well again!

[Filtered]

[fortunefail]

Oh, alright, fine. So I did lie about those things. It was for your own good.

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

Why? How was lying to me for my own good?

[Filtered]

[fortunefail]

Because if I told you about the situation, you'd try to interfere. I was planning to handle Zoisite without your involvement.

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

You had no idea who he was, Yuan, and you still have no idea what he's done or what he's capable of. Tell me how you were going to handle him.

[Filtered]

[fortunefail]

... Discreetly.

[Yeah, he's got nuttin'.]

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

Ah.

[fortunefail]

The only way to stop your enemy is to stay close to him and find out his weaknesses. Alternatively, there could very well be a way around this without violence.

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

He's my enemy, Yuan, not yours. And I've already told you that I was going to find another way to deal with him.

[Filtered]

[fortunefail]

...

There is... one other lie you should know about.

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

...What is it?

[Filtered]

[fortunefail]

... I was affected by the experiment on Valentine's Day.

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

...Oh. I see. You didn't need to lie about it...

[Filtered]

[fortunefail]

And give you the pleasure of knowing I fell for the same thing twice?

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

It's funny how nearly everyone fell for it, even me!

[fortunefail]

The chances that your 'partner' turned out to be the enemy of one of your companions is very slim.

[Filtered]

[themoonuplifts.livejournal.com]

I'm sure lots of people got the enemies of one of their companions, which you should change to friend, you know? It was still no reason to hide it.

[Filtered]

[fortunefail]

Hm.
