Sohma Ryuichi (Horse)
-------------------------

Ryuichi was inspecting the hairline cracks in the wall when the question came. He stopped making a hole out of one of the cracks when Hinote gave him a Look. He dug the letter out of his pocket and waved it in a vague sort of manner.
"I got a weird letter from Akito."
He saw Hinote start out of the corner of his eye, and grinned slightly, pricking up his ears. How very interesting... "You got that, too?"
"Oh yes. Apparently I'm Mr Horse. What are you?"
His amusement at the extreme coincidence that Hinote was also a Juunishi must have shown because her next statement was: "You've got that evil grin on your face again."
"You didn't answer my question." Ryuichi was nothing if not persistent.
"I'm the cat," Hinote answered, scowling. "It looks like a very large and elaborate joke, but the letter has Akito's seal on it."
"Who the hell is Akito, anyway? Every moron I have ever met from the Main House has this phobia of the guy."
"Kyou was quite scared of him."
"Kyou's from your branch of the family, right? The branch that has all the people with orange hair."
"Yeah, but I think he was a Juunishi, too. Most likely the cat. I heard my parents talking about him. What about this Juunishi thing?"
Ryuichi reached over to the counter and grabbed a beer. "Hey, don't waste the beer. I had to do some creative blackmailing to get it..."
"Now you're the one changing the subject! I think we have to find out more about the curse. Akito's the head of the family. He wouldn't joke about something like this."
"Whatever. Let's get our butts over to the Main House, then."
"What, tonight?"
"No, no, I meant to go later. You know, at three am, when we can wake up the whole family and have some fun looking at the murderous expression on their faces."
"Shut up."
"Actually, I was serious about that. Then we can see exactly how scary this Akito b*stard is-"
"Just shut up."
"That means we're going, right?"
A large vein popped on Hinote's temple. Ryuichi ignored it, polished off the can and tossed it expertly into the dustbin. Hinote was too nice a person to be seriously lethal. That was more in his line. He sauntered to the door.
