「果てない空」

sho sakurai. arashi. shaken, not stirred.

[sakvrai]

just an ordinary boy, but he was looking to the sky.

The name's Sakurai, and I'm here in the hopes that you'll keep me in your favour. Beyond my band, there's me. And I'm admittedly not much without the other four, but I'm hoping you'll overlook that in favour of a little human decency. Or a lot. I'm a big fan of "a lot".

I like history, writing, and seafood pizza. I don't like mushrooms, heights, and going up high places. I don't know if this sounds like an ad for a dating site, but I promise it isn't! Just me being me. And like I said, I'm probably not much without the other four.

In any case, it's good to be here! And I can only hope someone out there wants me to stay.

[sakvrai]

I wonder if anyone remembers my Internet presence, but maybe I should just start reaching out again.

Not that I had much of one, though. We Sakurais almost never do.

[implausibilities]

[sakvrai]

Sho kun, yo yo.

Please tell me this isn't the beginning of a new rap you've written.

[uetoayax]

then i have nothing to fear ~

after pointing out your weakness at cliff climb during vs, i had to point out the rest too~ 

i know~ but oh well sometimes you just have to stay fun. 

[sakvrai]

Staying fun is tiring and I'm only getting older. {laughs} But, yes. Just gotta keep trying.

Thank you, too, for reminding me of my athletic failure. I almost forgot.

[starxnamie]

Today is the day. We have the visit on the afternoon. I’m excited. Eh…? Chocobaby..? {laughs, caressing her belly} No, no… poor Tatsuya {chuckles} We gonna call him or her Izumi or Takase. I decided to use all his names because, well, he’s really excited about that, and seems he thought about it some time ago. Chocobaby…

Everyone wanna know about the gender, I’m famous {laughs}

I hate mondays. It’s the worst day of the week, believe me {nods}  I wanna work until my fifth month, so my manager changed my schedule and I can go home earlier. Yesterday I recorded a new song, that’s all the work I can do. Well, I have my own label on AVEX, so… I have a little chance to decide my schedule -nods- And you? Should I buy a bottle only for you? We don’t usually drink wine at home, so I have some imported bottles from Spain. 

[sakvrai]

Wine imported from Spain? I should've known Amuro-san would be living the life. {smiles sheepishly} I appreciate the sentiment, but you really don't have to...

I think the entire concept of you having an actual human being growing and developing inside you is exciting! I'm not a step close to fatherhood, so I'm going to live vicariously through you. Even though maybe I'm learning about motherhood more. But you'll never know when male pregnancy becomes scientifically proven and possible and I become a mother, myself! {fistpumps, before pausing} ... or maybe I shouldn't have babies so they don't inherit my awful humour.

[barefootmoonghost-deactivated20]

I don’t think that applies here? It’s a different fear. I, for example, I am afraid that everyone hates me. Well not hates me but—- dislikes me, because of all the things that have been said.  Some words? Well… yeah, I guess so? I mean I can actually understand pretty well (if you talk slowly and give me time to process and translate), I just can’t speak it. And yes, I think you’re right, it’s like riding a bike.

[sakvrai]

Ah, is that it. But it is maybe a little relevant, still. You don't know if you're already hated by someone you've just met because of rumours that've been spread. And this not knowing is a little scary. At least, that's how I see it? I'm sorry for blabbering.

On my end I'm afraid because I don't know who or what I'm dealing with. There're hardly any foolproof ways of making new friends, and you can never plan for it, or prepare for when thing go wrong...

I can't speak Italian at all, so I think you've already got your advantage over me!

[uetoayax]

that was a metaphor sho! -laughs lightly- bt i was talking about the male sirens~~~ and i won’t be eaten by any sirens don’t worry. i am a mermaid soul remember? 

nobody has ever asked me about anime ever and i have never had any proper chance to talk about anime…as far as i can remember.. maybe once when i was advertizing gundam wing figures… but after that nothing! -laughs- you should just point them to some interview of the past -laughs- the problem is that i bet you have probably forgotten what you said before!

[sakvrai]

I'm pretty sure a siren would eat even the little mermaid. They seem the type.

{winces} You're pointing out all my weaknesses, here. How do you do that so effortlessly? {sighs}

They ask the same things so often the answers tend to blur together. It's a struggle to stay interesting everyday.

Yes, hello! Sho Sakurai's here, he's queer, and you've nothing to fear! Or... something.

Forgive my inability to sound even the slightest bit interesting. You wouldn't happen to be interested in history, would you?

[sagara-ganglion]

I’m sure you will learn quickly, it just comes with the territory when you are around me.  Especially if you consider the ability to stop by and spend time with myself and my band a privilege!  This is something easily fulfilled!

[sakvrai]

Ah...!

Please keep me in your favour, then. You and the rest of GANGLION! Hopefully I won't melt into the floor after the first two minutes, but I can't make any big promises.

[angelprince-takamiy]

I’ve gained a lot of followers recently that I haven’t addressed yet, so… those of you, thank you so much. I really appreciate it. My name is Toshihiko Takamizawa of THE ALFEE, feel free to speak to me whenever. I’m a bit busy most of the time, but I always take a break to hold a conversation.

[sakvrai]

No, no, thank you! It's an honour to be able to meet you in... well, semi-person, Takamizawa-san.

One day I hope to be able to hone my own talents to be as much a master of them as THE ALFEE is of theirs. It's really, truly an honour.

[yuyaxoxo-deactivated20150505]

"I only recognize your face.." Tegoshi’s eyes squinted in thought, and widened soon in realisation. "Ah! Yes. Sakurai.. I’ve seen you on the streets. Almost too much." His head tipped to the side, ear resting on his shoulder while he pursed his lips in thought.

[sakvrai]

"I'm guilty of being in several different places at once, I'll admit." Sho huffs a small laugh, though he does give a small bow of his head. "I hope it hasn't skewed your perception of me, though.

"I was serious when I said I hoped you would keep me in your favour." His own head tilts in perfect mirroring of the younger man's, simple interest obvious in his expression. "Will I get your name, or do I have to earn it?"

[kxzya]

Nino has the feeling that Sho usually doesn’t come into restaurants like this one. He can perfectly imagine the ones Sho would go, maybe with Jun together would be really fancy ones, but since Nino’s stomach couldn’t take expensive food he was happy Sho would come with him to a cheap place like this. 

After getting comfortable as well the singer grins widely at his friend “I guess you haven’t been at a place like this for a while, ne?”, he chuckles lightly with a nod of his head. “Just the katsudon, and some sake, maybe.” with that he already raises his hand to be seen my the shop’s owner. A guy, probably in his fifties, his head red, probably from the Sake, Nino never saw the shop owner having a /normal-colored/ head though. The singer calls all over the little restaurant, ordering two katsudon and a bottle of their best Sake. “If we don’t drink it all we can take it with us after that.”, he says once he’s ordered and smiles sweetly at Sho.

[sakvrai]

Nino's in his element and Sho's all too eager to let him take the lead, sitting perfectly calm in his place at the table. He laughs at the mention of sake, imagining them unable to finish a single bottle--something they haven't been guilty of in a long while. "Take it with us," he repeats, his tone of voice amused. "And play janken to see who'll want to take the cold alcohol home?" Sho's words wager on playful, and he folds his arms over the table, his chin resting lightly on his forearm. "Or were you thinking of a sleepover? Do we still call them sleepovers when we're above thirty years old?" He finds himself laughing again--albeit quieter--and is more than thankful at the emptiness of the little restaurant. Anywhere else and he'd have to be the picture-perfect definition of polite.

Maybe he should've expected Nino would take him somewhere they didn't have to be idols. But lately Sho's almost a little worried that he can't read his best friend well any more at all.

[barefootmoonghost-deactivated20]

You’re right with that. But then again, I used to speak it fluently, so it’s frustrating to me now. And my dad isn’t helping at all. I know that all too well. It isn’t a bad thing, I think. Sometimes you get to know really cool people, or to get to know people better. 

[sakvrai]

"Mankind fears what they do not know" or something, right? It shouldn't be this difficult to make friends with people! And yet...

You still remember some words from Italian, though, don't you? Some semantics? Those things stick with you for life, I like to think.

[uetoayax]

lovely because hawaii is calling for my mermaid soul ~ the sirens calling for me to swimmmmmmm mhmmmm 

well the classic question i have answered many times “when do you want to marry.”  or ‘are you dating anything” or the classic “among your colleagues who would you date.” oh it’s like when you get asked every time about who you’d date in arashi. the other time i heard you and the guys complaining about that question in the first place -laughs-

[sakvrai]

I don't know if there're lesbian sirens, but please don't get eaten by one.

It's always the romance, huh? One day I want someone to ask me about my interests in anime. Or the nutritional value of broccoli. Or anything other than dating, really! {sighs} It's getting more and more difficult to think of reasons to date Aiba-chan...

[aixjr-deactivated20180422]

Does it really? Well I introduce myself as Hanbyul or Jason so it’s all good, I guess…

I won’t watch you peeing. That’s gross mister.

[sakvrai]

If you say 'Fabio', I imagine a long-haired, well-built man holding a dame on a romance novel cover. {laughs} But I like Hanbyul or Jason more than Fabio, anyway.

Hey! You'll never know who might or might not enjoy watching people pee, all right? It's better safe than sorry!

[kurokitty-meisa]

True, I have to say that this is probably the most tiring job unfortunately, but so enjoyable.

But Sakurai-kun that doesn’t sound so positive *chuckles* Even though we all have those demons and they tend to lurk a lot.

[sakvrai]

{laughs} I suppose it doesn't sound positive at all, no.

I just mean that constantly thinking on the bright side has its demerits, you know? It's good, but... acknowledging the things about you that're bad, that you have to improve somehow--that's good, too. And it's how we become better.

Look at me waxing philosophical. {winces, lightly pinching the bridge of his nose} I'm sorry.
