Kiro’s Call Translation

I uploaded this on reddit a few days ago and posting it here to with the call.

Spoilers for beyond chapter 17.

https://youtu.be/WnQNeWjCCWM

Kiro: Hello, you still awake?

Yōurán: I’m still finishing my report. How was the shooting today?

Kiro: It went all smoothly. Except…

Yōurán: Did something happen?

Kiro: No, I’m doing very well here, and the people here are great. I just missed you.

Yōurán: It’s unlike you to be down like this.

Kiro: Really? Do you think I’m so shallow like that?

Yōurán: Of course not. But you are the brightest and warmest sun, so it’s easy to be touched by your light first.

Kiro: But right now, the sunlight is getting too strong that it’s scorching…

Yōurán: Wait, right now it’s sunset where you are, right?

Kiro: Yes. As we speak, I’m watching the sun go down.

Kiro: I’m sitting on Dune 45 in the Namib Desert. Everything is red here. Red sand, red sunset, red clouds…

Yōurán: It must be so beautiful.

Kiro: It’s so pretty here. I just took a video to show you later!

Kiro: The red sky is slowly darkening to purple and blue. The sun is getting heavier as well.

Yōurán: Soon, it will sink beyond the horizon.

Kiro: Yes… Miss Chips, you said I was like the sun, right? But even the sun can go down.

Kiro: If I have a side that’s in shadows, should I hide it?

Yōurán: Why should you hide it?

Kiro: Because, I don’t want to show you and I don’t want to disappoint others.

Yōurán: But you're just you, Kiro.

Kiro: I'm just me…?

Yōurán: Yes. Why can’t a sun have shadows? Even the real sun has sunspots!

Yōurán: People who really care for you will love both the warm sunny side and the dark, depressed side.

Kiro: But I…

Yōurán: Everyone has a side they want to hide in the shadows. No one should be required to be perfect. That applies to my little sun as well.

Kiro: Is it really okay if I’m not perfect in your heart?

Yōurán: Absolutely. To me, all sides of you are like treasure.

Kiro: Thank you, Yōurán.

Yōurán: What's there to be thankful for?

Kiro: Because… only you are willing to see the weak and plain side that I’m hiding. Because you accept both my light and my shadow.

Yōurán: That’s why I’m your own personal safebox! I’ll keep your sorrows tucked in safely!

Kiro: Thanks for your trouble. I’m so lucky to have you.

Kiro: In truth, you are my sun who gives me light to see the world every morning. Thank you, for always being there for me.

Discussion

Kiro is usually a cheerful person. But in this call he is feeling down. And as he is talking to Yōurán about his "shadow" he is watching the sun go down. He says "but the sunlight is getting too strong that it's scorching." If sunlight is a metaphor for his evol. This indicates how his absolute charm evol seemingly went out of control in chapter 14 until it led to his more potent powers - controlling people by ordering them.

He describes the sunset to Yōurán. The setting sun is making everything look red. But red sky is getting darker, to purple, to blue, until it becomes the color of the night sky, dark and without light. It's notable that Yōurán remarks that the sun will "sink" beyond the horizon, a word that is used to describe ships. When a ship sinks it usually means the end for the ship. What does this mean? It means Kiro X MC ship is sinking It means the end of "Kiro the Sun and Light" is approaching. This foreshadows the "fall" of Kiro at the end of chapter 14.

When the sun sets below the horizon, it is out of your eyesight. The sun is still there, but it's on the other side of the Earth and you can't see it. After Ch14 Yōurán can't see Kiro at all because he is kept out of her line of sight. In chapter 17 Kiro uses his Helios persona to shadow who he really is. Despite having doubts she can't see that he is Kiro. And when she finally does he wipes out her memory making it all moot.

Kiro wants to hide his "shadow" from Yōurán because he is afraid that she will be sad or disappointed. He asks her "Is it really okay if I'm not perfect in your heart?" The boy is afraid of Yōurán knowing that he is not the perfect sun. Is he afraid that she will be scared or run away?

Yōurán: Everyone has a side they want to hide in the shadows. No one should be required to be perfect. That applies to my little sun as well. People who really care for you will love both sides.

But if there is one thing that Yōurán never does, she never runs away. Sometimes even when she probably should.

She shows this attitude in Kiro's Kiss date(translation here) not yet in EN server, to quote the specific part:

His always bright and cheerful eyes narrowed to emit a threatening atmosphere. I was suddenly reminded of the “You know too much, I’ll have to kill you.” scenes in movies. I felt a shiver in my back.

(...)

Having reached this thought, my desire to help him drove away my fear. Making my decision, I spoke from my heart.

Yōurán: If you could let me help…

Kiro's sudden change in demeanor leads Yōurán's survival instinct to picture "about to be murdered by a killer" scene. (And if we consider what Helios does, her instinct is quite on point. Never doubt the genius Lucien's words to Yōurán - "When you're in danger, trust your instincts.") However, she offers to help him.

In chapter 17 she doesn't get wary of Helios because she doesn't feel that he is dangerous to her. (Probably because her guts are telling her he really is Kiro and would never hurt her.)

Kiro: Because… only you are willing to see the weak and plain side that I’m hiding. Because you accept both my light and my shadow.

This is sad because while Kiro has a lot of fans and people who love him, only Yōurán is the one who is willing to see his dark side. Implying that many will not accept Helios. I kind of understand why Helios was desperately trying to hide that he is Kiro. If Yōurán doesn't accept Helios, no one will.

Kiro: In truth, you are my sun who gives me light to see the world every morning. Thank you, for always being there for me.

The story describes quite a lot that Kiro is Yōurán’s sun who cheers her up and chases her darkness away. But this call reveals that it works the other way too. She is his sun as well. She gives him light and reason to shine out even more brightly.

Anyway, it'll be fun to watch the future dynamics between the two. Helios trying to hide and Yōurán chasing after him. Yōurán: Are you Kiro? Helios: No. Yōurán: You look like Kiro. Helios: I do not. Yōurán: You are Kiro. Helios: Get out.

I like Helios, but I miss Kiro and is waiting for him to come back.

Golden Kamuy 235 & 236: Clint Eastwood as a postal delivery man and our pirate has domestic desires . . .

Hello all, I apologize for the delay in my posts. I am one of the many people who had to change from a job of going into work to working entirely from home and online only. I have found the transition to be incredibly difficult - I have always had a strict division in my work/home balance. Add on top of that the fact that I live alone with my cat, my parents are almost 2,000 miles away and my brother is currently in Tokyo has made things very stressful. I don’t mean to dump this on you [readers], but sometimes I think it is better to at least say these things since a lot of other people are dealing with this or some version of these situations. It sucks, it is messing with my life and I am trying to deal with this situation.

Okay, enough about me, let’s get to GK.

Chapter 235 starts with Boutarou and Sugimoto about to have a showdown (to the death since Sugimoto just wants his skin). It starts out with Boutarou sizing up Shiraishi, he appears a bit playful and curious that Shiraishi is still in Hokkaido - based on Shiraishi pre-Asirpa/Sugimoto/Kiro he really was a self interested guy. You’d expect he’d make his way back to Honshu and have some fun going to red light districts. The fact that Shiraishi has a pensive look means he’s trying to think a way to deal with this situation and also reacting to the assumption of his personality. He immediately sees Sugimoto reaching for his bayonet and realizes they need to ask him if he know more information.

I really have grown to like Shiraishi - he was a successful escape artist, indicative of being a smarter than average guy and he’s already putting the pieces together that Boutarou would have more information on the Ainu as he sees Sugimoto in his murder mode.

Shiraishi is able to de-escalate the situation by calming stating an assumption on his part. It is gamble, but based on what he learned from Heita, it is a good gamble since the thought things over pretty well.

This is enough information to get the pirate to stop and then he’s excited that they are thinking the same thing as him. Shiraishi is close enough to Boutarou to keep Sugimoto at bay who in this panel looks like a predator coming in for a kill after stalking. Sugimoto is hunched over, almost creeping forward like a cat while Shiraishi is upright and super relaxed.

Shiraishi’s statement is enough to get more information out of Boutarou, he then tells them that there is a rumor that the tattoos are useless to figuring out the code. This is enough to snap Sugimoto out of his murder mode. Excellently played Shiraishi!

They are interrupted by the fact that the pirate gang notices another paddle boat is coming the opposite direction and there are soldiers on it and if they are from the 7th it would be bad news. Only then does Sugimoto realize that of course Boutarou would have men working for him and it causes him to pause.

Boutarou has an excellent reaction to things, he calmly gets the boat moving again, and his men, keep the passengers under control. The postman is the introduced, our Clint Eastwood stand in as he’s armed to protect valuables sent via the post.

We can see where this is going . . . there will be a shoot out on the boat and Asirpa is still out cold. It looks like they will be in the clear, they pass by the other boat as they wave over.

Shiraishi is nervous as he hopes the plan works with little issues. Asirpa then wakes up as the postman readies his handgun. The postman thinks he took out one of the pirate gang members and causes enough of a commotion that the other boat notices the gunshot.

Unfortunately, his “excellent” aim had nothing to do with him. Instead, it was all from Vasily sniping them one by one from the boat with the horses. This is the worst outcome possible, it makes a huge scene, escalates the entire situation, and takes out most of the pirate gang a disadvantage to Boutarou.

Sadly, our inexperienced postman makes terrible decisions wasting his ammo from his revolver for no reason and then someone finds Sugimoto’s lost rifle. Cue Ogata lecture. Oh wait, Ogata isn’t present, yet we as readers can hear his “tch” sound. In the meantime, due to Vasily’s sniping, the other boat is worried about saving the passengers and turns back around.

Thankfully, Boutarou thinks quickly on his feet. He takes control of the boat and he turns it so that he can ram into the paddle wheel of the other boat.

By incapacitating the drive system of the other boat, they can leave them stuck in the river. Very clever moves and it additionally, breaks the rope that kept Vasily tied to the boat. He’s now stuck in a small boat as they escape from him.

This all in all is a good situation for Vasily even if he doesn’t realize it, keeping him away from the rest of the group means, there won’t be another shoot first, ask no questions later situation. The man he should have sniped was the postman, not the pirate gang. As usual he goes for clean head shots, indicating he doesn’t snipe the same way as Ogata, who frequently thinks about his most effective way to do things.

Back to the action where our postman from hell now has Sugimoto’s rifle is and still fighting back awkwardly and is under the indication that his men were shot by him. He goes into a calm mode as he looks at his options to take out the man. Meanwhile, Sugimoto is just trying to dodge him and not die due to the man’s recklessness.

Boutarou has an expression of complete seriousness, he cares for his gang and he’s going to do what it takes. Being the wild man that he is, he manages to swing the anchor into the passenger galley and Sugimoto luckily is able to yell to Asirpa to protect her as she gets the man down as he goes for the backpack.

Of course Sugimoto goes back to angry murder mode as Boutarou hits him in the face with the anchor as he gets close enough to punch him in the stomach under the pretense that he may have hurt Asirpa.

Yes, Sugimoto, you lost your rifle, and your inability to keep an eye on your firearms lead to this entire situation and he’s now back to “who cares - kill the man and skin him” mindset.

Quick summary of the chapter

1.) Shiraishi remains the brains of their group. He was on the path for the most information and least amount of violence, but that didn’t work out.

2.) Boutarou is a clever guy. He has a good balance of using his brain and calmly and effectively making decisions. The fact that he’s friendly with Shiraishi tells me that he is a more complicated convict that some of the others and will continue to be a major force in this story arc.

3.) Vasily is a giant liability. He can’t effectively communicate with the rest of the group. He snipes the wrong people resulting in a more complicated situation and he eventually gets ditched. His sniping style is clearly one of simple execution. There is no way that he’s as intelligent as Ogata and lacks the ability to play a long game at all. In a way, he may even make Sugimoto feel good about him being around b/c he can write off snipers as being all like Vasily and therefore, puts Ogata in that category even though he’s no way close to it. The fact he wasn’t with the rest of the group to see what was happening made things far worse, what did he gain by sniping some of the pirate crew? Nothing.

4.) Sugimoto put Asirpa in danger. By rushing off to deal with things and leaving her out of his sight, losing his rifle and being stuck in murder mode, he endangered her. If he truly wants to protect her, he can’t just leave her out of his sight. He deflects everything in the name of always following short term actions.

Chapter 236 starts with several pages of Boutarou and Sugimoto fighting each other. Both of them have white murder eyes as they beat the shit out of each other.

I think the fight between these two is to show us how tenacious they are. They are able to put everything into the fight - it is a brutal all out brawl between them and they hold nothing back.

In the meantime, the postman wastes his last shot with Sugimoto’s rifle and Asirpa is able to cleverly kick him off into the water. Then Asirpa is able to stop Sugimoto as she gets onto the deck with her bow at hand (not sure where she put his rifle). Sugimoto’s eyes return to round and black with a little sparkle in them, indicating that he’s out of his murder mode.

By her actions, she was able to get the postman off the boat and all the commotion can calm down, it gives Shiraishi the opportunity to also get Sugimoto to stop with reason to talk to Boutarou.

Boutarou seems unfazed by Sugimoto’s switch from murder to normal. To me it indicates that they must have a lot in common as he looks at him with some sort of “kindred spirit” vibe. It may just be me, but both men appear to have on/off switches for their murder modes.

Shiraishi then asks him about the rumor to be unable to solve the code, and Boutarou gives him what he knows. We finally learn the origin of the Baroto skin; Wakayama had found one of the other convicts; he killed him and skinned him.

We get an extra image of a naked Boutarou as he reveals he lost it via gambling. Wakayama states the odds of all of the convicts being alive to be found and skinned is too to low as two of our previous convicts are shown how they died. He was confident that was a moot point and even went as far to see how Wilk may have just messed with everyone, because he could.

This then connects to what the candy peddler said - that Wakayama was disappointed; likely due to the fact he lost the skin and also the fact that if he thought about what happened to other convicts, it really is a pointless quest.

Despite all of the skins they’ve found, Wakayama and Boutarou have valid points. Boutarou tells them that it gave him a reason to give up on trying to find the skins, but thought if he tried to figure out where Wilk hid the gold, it would be worth the effort. He then asks them if they’d like to join forces with him.

To keep them intrigued in him and his goals, Boutarou tells them what he wants to do with the gold. He wants to leave Hokkaido, move someplace warmer in SE Asia and then become a major producer of agricultural products. He sees himself making himself the ruler and he wants to start a large family.

His idea is exceptionally childish and still is mis-placed colonial/imperial feelings but it is coming from his own personal experience. Shiraishi is less than amused and Sugimoto tries to almost hide his feelings on the idea of why everyone wants the gold to rule a country. Boutarou is very perceptive he asks Sugimoto about his family. As Sugimoto states he has none, it leads him to ask what caused them to die and Sugimoto tells him it was due to TB. He then reveals that his own family died of smallpox. This lead to his childish dream of creating his own family that wouldn’t be shunned due to disease and he used this concept as the way to keep him going - the side effect is that he used his dream as his way to push through everything.

All of a sudden their brutal fight makes so much sense - neither of them have something to lose related to their family. Their lack of a family back home allows them to be reckless idiots. And this leads to a much awaited Sugimoto flashback! Finally! I have to admit that I’ve been waiting for this for a loooooooong time. I was thinking it would happen on Karafuto due to Sugimoto’s vision during the snow squall - this just shows us how deep his denial of this is.

With Sugimoto’s dead looking black eyes, we can tell that even before his father died, he had reached the same mental state as many of our other characters where they “broke” inside. Ogata around age 9, Tsurumi with the death of Fina and Olga etc etc. We learn that Sugimoto’s family have a weakness for being kind and caring towards others, so his father feels bad for his situation.

I want to know exactly what his dad did that leads him to say that he was always helping people even if he shouldn’t. Does this mean that his father got overly involved in things? That he was also overly emotional and rushed into things without thinking them through. Argh! I want to know more about Sugi-dad.

Sugimoto sits outside of the house as a cat approaches him. As stated in the footnotes at the end of the chapter, the cat is supposed to prevent TB. Sugimoto then wonders if due to the cat’s aloof nature, perhaps it isn’t helping with curing his sick dad. He tells that cat that it is useless too, this implies that Sugimoto himself feels useless to help his father.

The cat then walks off to do its cat things as Sugimoto stands up and prepares himself. His clenched fists and determined expression in the last panel show that he’s made a decision. In an attempt to give him ‘release’ his father tells him to leave their home.

He is told that for him to live for his own sake isn’t a bad thing. This tells us that Sugimoto has a hard time being selfish, he’s clearly done actions for the sake of his family without any regard for his own feelings and self care. He leaves the house as his father coughs in the room. He’s nervous and unsure of the decision at first. He’s sweating as he holds his feelings in. But the wind blows through the trees and he makes his verbal commitment to not lose. He begins to cheer himself up and it leads to the dramatic panel. He declares that he’s immortal!

So, before his father has died and he burns the house down, he has made his first declaration of how he will live his life - he will be immortal. We now know this attitude was created before he enlisted in the 1st and fought in the war.

He then snaps back to the present as Boutarou asks him what his dreams are. The facial expression of Sugimoto is one of almost confusion/panic/thought

The fact that Sugimoto can’t answer him easily, indicates that Sugimoto has been living without any dreams for himself. Just living without a long term goal. His various shades of his eyes show us that he’s never been asked this question before so directly. It isn’t about Umeko and Toraji. It is about him. And thus, his father’s statement makes more sense now; Sugimoto doesn’t want things to be about him; then he’d have to face himself.

The chapter then ends with them arriving at their destination. Again, Boutarou is reasonable with the passengers; they just take the registered mail money and leave the passengers with their money and unharmed.

Since the postman was looking in Sugimoto’s backpack he revealed what was inside of it. Heita’s skin and his tobacco case. So now, Boutarou knows that they ran into Heita and he’s clearly not alive anymore. Good eye, Boutarou!

Clearly, the next chapter will have more drama in relation to this discovery.

Quick summary and conclusions;

1.) Sugimoto is most similar to Boutarou. He spends so much of his time othering and making the convicts inhuman; just the skins. Boutarou has too much in common with him. The tenacity to fight to the death, carrying the PTSD from losing their families to disease and the feeling of helplessness. The difference is that Boutarou thought deeply about his childhood motivation and has accepted it for his future plans and motivation. Boutarou has the ability to self-reflect and use it in a pro-active fashion. Sugimoto has revealed that he has been running away from facing himself since before his father died. This is terrible - it tells us that Sugimoto’s problems go back even further than we originally realized and he went to war already wounded and broken. No wonder he continues to be reckless; he was as broken as Ogata was going to war. The Ogata-Sugimoto similarities gain another point for how they were both broken before enlisting in the army.

2.) Sugimoto clearly hates cats and the link to Toraji’s nickname of Tora-chan and Ogata add to it. The black cat let him down unable to help his father recover from TB. He’s been surrounded by cats, people with cat nicknames, or cat like characteristics. It is obvious that he’d lash out a those with the overlap and Ogata is our most obvious easy target. A random black house cat let him down. All other future cats will let him down. The link to Ogata is so obvious with his aloof attitude and ability to float between groups with little attachment.

3.) We finally learn the origin of the Barato skin. I’m glad to know that it was a skin that was lost by Wakayama. It shows that many of the more rational convicts knew when to give up with the hunt for the skins and it was key in highlighting the Hijikata-Ogata alliance of convenience. It also highlights that with Asirpa knowing the code, it is likely that not all of the skins are critical. @goldenkamuyhunting had an excellent meta post about what this could mean for the hunt for the skins. I reblogged it before this post if you missed it.

That’s pretty much all I have for now!

Okay so first of all I can literally feel Soriya kicking me in the shin because I have a lot to say about this.

Uhhh, to be honest? Unpopular opinion but I actually have held a long standing notion that Kiro and Kat wouldn’t be a dumpster fire. I actually think they would fit in pretty well if they could both get passed the opposite sides of a war, and on Kiros side get over that (if they both make it to old age) she will die before him, which is less about her and more about humans in general for him. When I think about it it actually has some soft similarities to like a Romeo Juliet scenario as far as being natural enemies in the same field, and I think that would be a fun thing to write, too, like the sneaking around aspect of it all.

But really, I mean we’ve talked pretty extensively at times about our OC’s and forever I have always seen a metric ton of parallels between Kat and Kiro. They almost feel like their life experiences have molded them into very similar people. However I always saw Kiro as like, on the next stage of progression and on his way to healing. More then once I’ve seen you answer a prompt or mention something and I go ‘fuck, he has been through this. He can give her advice that actually applies to her, and that she might logically see.’

Beyond just the similarities I think they’re also just compatiable archetypes. They’re both very, very smart, they’re both straight shooters, headstrong, opinionated, and capable people. I can see them challenging eachother a lot, but as people in their position who don’t often get challenged? It would likely be something they both begrudgingly respected about the other. I can see them both sending counter points and making the other actually think about some choices and views. Which let’s be real, that would be good for both of them.

The only things I could see as negatives is I don’t think Kat would appreciate even 50% of Kiros nonesense. Like yeah some of it’s funny but I can’t see it not getting on her nerves, especially when he does it in serious situations. I can also see Kiro getting frustrated watching Kat make mistakes he’s made.

So I can see the good and the bad in what I perceive. But I think it could work, and if they made it work? The relationship win lose or draw would likely grow them as people.

However, there’s the big elephant in the room as far as Soriya is concerned. She would certainly be upset, as she does have some strong feelings toward Kat herself. Not to mention you know, I can’t imagine Kiro would do that to his kid- ever- no matter how much he liked the other person. Which effectively renders this entire musing a moot point.

Thanks @kat-hawke !

◎: What is your muse’s most prized mundane possession? Why do they value it so much? ☯: Who, if anyone, does your muse consider to be their best friend?

◎: What is your muse’s most prized mundane possession? Why do they value it so much?

Really anything from her mom or dad.

Okay! So I don’t really dig into this too much because Soriya, as she is now, isn’t the type of character to dwell on these types of issues. However, she wasn’t always the ‘live in the moment. Work passed your issues. Understand what bothers you’ kind of person. As a youngster, she struggled a lot with growing up as an orphan. She probably had a bit of an easier time only because every other Sin’dorei child she met didn’t have parents either because of the Scourge. But that doesn’t mean it never got to her. Dreaming up ideas of just who her lineage was kept her up well into the night. She used to hope that one day a parent would come and pick her up and take her home. Never happened, but that was the pipe dream when she was a teenager. Often times she settled for thinking that her parents were brave knights who died fighting back the undead.

That dream was somewhat realized by Kirollis, I mean not that he’s a knight or anything, but he’s at least her dad. I would say that by the time the two of them met she had largely gotten over being by herself, or what was left was mostly suppressed to a moot point.

It left her really, really, sentimental, especially when it came to possessions her parents left for her or were handed down. But in particular she keeps items from her mother very, very close to her heart, as the two had never truly met that Soriya herself remembers. So she has a fancy hairclip, she has a photo of the three of them together, a necklace, a bracelet, and a couple more of those mundane treasures that Kirollis had collected for her over the years. But I think the biggest was probably the diary her mom kept when, toward the end, she was pregnant. It’s maybe the only thing she has of her mothers that like... makes it feel like they were together.

She has stuff from Kiro too but, like, lets be real him being alive is the best gift to her.

☯: Who, if anyone, does your muse consider to be their best friend?

I can’t say. Soriya doesn’t get close to people enough to really make friends, and she travels way too much to really bond over short periods of time. Don’t get me wrong, she definitely has some friends, but she never sees any one person on the daily. It’s always a string of not seeing one another for a month and then BAM. Sunday funday.

There’s a really short list of people she considers close, though. That she can talk to about her own stuff. In no particular order; @lail-harper @kat-hawke @nymaraei & Kirollis, unless we aren’t counting relatives.

Thanks @eternalmurmurings !

Usually to spar with sticks with Jackson.” ► Fallen down/up the stairs ➔ “Yes, believe it or not I was a terribly clumsy child.” ► Wanted something/someone so badly it hurt? ➔ “Yes.” ► Wanted to disappear ➔ “Yes. Some days more than others.”

FOUR PREFERENCES

► Smile or eyes ➔ “Eyes. Emotions play on the eyes whether a person is happy or sad, the truth is in the eyes.” ► Shorter or Taller ➔ “Taller.” ► Intelligence or Attraction ➔ “Intelligence. If no one’s home it really is difficult to feel a connection with someone to garner attraction.” ► Hook-up or Relationship ➔ “Relationship, though that’s really all I’ve known.”

FAMILY

► Do you and your family get along ➔ “We do most days. I’m not my brother’s keeper and Light knows I had my differences with both he and my mother. Any hard time was simply because we cared for the other enough to fight for one another.” ► Would you say you have a “messed up life” ➔ “Possibly. I’ve not exactly lead a life of expectations for a noble woman, daughter, or wife. I fulfill duty outside my own house. I guess some might see that as messed up. I wouldn’t call it that though.” ► Have you ever ran away from home ➔ “‘Twice. Once as a child and once two years ago. Not sure that counts but still held consequences.” ► Have you ever been kicked out ➔ “Probably the closest was a suspension. Wasn’t so much kicked out as told to take leave to get my head together. I didn’t go back.”

FRIENDS

► Do you secretly hate one of your friends ➔ “I don’t really hate anyone. Extremely dislike? yes.” ► Do you consider all of your friends good friends ➔ “No. I care for all of my friends but I know that effort is not always mirrored. Not that it’s anyone’s fault, just what is.” ► Who is your best friend ➔ “My husband will always be the only one I consider my best friend. He knows more of me than anyone and the only one I trust enough to know me so well.” ► Who knows everything about you ➔ “I’m not sure anyone knows everything about me. Likely my brother and my husband.”
