AIGHT, so it sounds like a lotta you guys got feelin's or somethin' to work out 'cause of what happened. Not 'cause of the stupid Culturists comin' in, but you know, the other thing.

WELL, IT AIN'T GETTIN' WORKED OUT BY ITSELF.

An' since I ain't so good at talkin' and I know some people here ain't so good at it neither 'cause you got emotion Legos or somethin', I've got some pads up on the trees and I'm gonna go punch stuff. If you ain't good at talkin' neither, but you wanna blow off some steam? The name's Beat. Come punch trees wit' me behind House 10. It's good for you, yo.

Action
[And if he's not found behind House 10 punching trees with boxing pads duct-taped to them, he's inside helping around the house for once. Mainly, he's trying to clean; trying being the operative word. He does pretty well at sweeping up and vacuuming, but dusting is not his forte. It takes too much concentration and finesse and he spends most of his time catching all the things he knocked off the shelves.

Later, in the evening, he's on the porch of House 10 or out in the plaza and practicing his reading with a flashlight. It's slow going since Shiki left, but he figures she'll come back one day and then he's got to show that he improved or she'll probably slug him in the face.]

But I don't have any girlfriends! There isn't anyone to hear!

Dude, you can't just say that! You gonna hurt their feelings and then they're gonna tie you to a chair or make you look after their chickens!!!

Their... what? What kind of girls do you know?

...Uh.

...I know Pillows kinda. But mostly Shiki n' Ribbons an' Rhyme. Rhyme ain't gonna do nothin' 'cause she's my sister, but Shiki tied me to a chair and I think Ribbons' chicken kid is tryin' to kill me so it can have the entire second floor to itself. Goddamn evil birds.

Her... chicken kid?

I'm not sure I even want to know how that happened. I'm guessing some kind of weird experiment was... what am I saying? I don't even want to think about that!

I don't know! Don't ask me! She's got that chicken-thing that's like her kid so, yanno, chicken kid. I think it's name is Sekai. I call it Rubbertop when it can't hear me.

There's a big difference between "like her kid" and "her kid," you know.

You seen the way she treats it? I don't see no difference 'cept she ain't sending it to school and yellin' at it for doing stuff.

I guess I can kind of understand that. I know I spoil my monsters sometimes, but even then, I still wouldn't think of them as my kids. That would just be weird.

...You got monsters and girlfriends?! Dude, you gotta share!

I just said I--

[Sigh.]

Never mind. Anyway, I have one of my monsters here if you'd like to come over and meet him sometime.

....It ain't gonna eat me, is it?

No, Sial is really friendly. He'd much rather bother you to feed him than eat you.

Well I don't mind feedin' things so long as I ain't the menu.

Aight, we gotta hang someday an' I'll meet yo' pet monster.

Okay! Just let me know when you want to come over and see him. He always loves more attention, especially if he thinks you're going to give him treats too.

Coo'! Just lemme know what kinda stuff he likes so I don't bring nothin' he's gonna rock up later.

He's not picky at all, just as long as it isn't too spicy. But you can't really go wrong with meat or cookies.

...Cookies?

I can do meat. Meat's cool. He like chili dogs?

I don't see why not! It's two kinds of meat in one, so he'd probably think it was great. Um, if the chili isn't too spicy, that is.

Uh, I can take the peppers off? I dunno. Chili's dope, so I don't get people who don't like it.

... how much pepper do you put in your chili dogs?

I don't make 'em! Not much, I guess? A couple? I can just tell 'em not to put any on so it's jus' beans n' meat.

Then he'd probably be just fine with that. He'll eat just about anything otherwise.

....So...what's he look like?

He looks like... here, hold on for a moment.

[Emil disappears from view in the journal for a minute or two, at last reappearing with a furry creature the size of a large cat in his arms.]

Here he is!
