Nurse Touma o_O;; That's all I have to say....
Okay, I guess that's a bit unfair to you all. I can't just start out like that and not elaborate, can I? That'd just make me an evil bitch (which CAN be fun sometimes ^_-). As a belated Christmas gift, I give you the scans and summary of the latest chapter of Gravi out in Japan (unlike the English version of Track 61 which cuts off shortly before The Big Kiss, I'll let you in on all that happened this time). And anyone who wishes to try download this themselves can refer to my tutorial page Here
We start out with Shuuichi reacting to what was said at the end of the last track (which was just Ryuuichi laughing), telling him not to laugh, and then going off on a whole long rant about how bad things are and talking about Eiri (so many kanji :P). He wonders why he hasn't come home yet, saying that he's probably been going to hotels and hooking up women to get revenge for Shuuichi cheating on him. Ryuuichi says he's not fooling around with a woman, he's with Touma (eh, close enough :P). Both Shuuichi and the other members of Bad Luck and co. (who are watching on Rage's camera) seem surprised. Ryuuichi then says, "Right, Touma?" and the man in question steps out in to the opening (Oooooh, Shuuichi, I smell big trouble for you).
Touma first addresses Ryuuichi, saying that a car is waiting for him and he should go. Ryuuichi protests and says that he's with Shuuichi now, and Shuuichi interrupts them, telling Touma to give Eiri back. Touma says that's hardly something that a cheater has the right to say and refuses to return Eiri. Shuuichi asks if it's really true that Touma's fooling around with Eiri, and Touma (proudly) says it's true, describing all the things they've done together like sleeping and taking baths. Shuuichi is totally jealous until Touma says "That's what I planned to do, but...." It seems that when Touma woke up that morning, Eiri was gone, and he hasn't been able to find him yet. Then we see a little flashback of what happened after Eiri went to see Touma the other day.
We again see the part where Touma tells Eiri it's okay to betray someone to get revenge when you've been betrayed, and Eiri slaps his hand away, telling him to knock it off. Touma hugs Eiri, saying , "If you don't like calling me Big Brother, you can just call me Touma." Eiri asks him what the hell he's talking about. Touma feels that Eiri has a fever (Eiri insists he doesn't....under the circumstances, I'm not sure who to believe :P), and says that he needs to take care of him, even demanding that he be taken by helicopter to his home.
The next few panels are....err, disturbing. We first see Touma dolled up in a nurse outfit telling Eiri it's time for his tea. On the next page, Nurse Touma is sitting on his bed (is that a panty shot? Is he even wearing anything underneath? I can't tell if there's supposed to be something blurred out, or if it's just the writing that's in the way). He offers Eiri some medicine, which Eiri says he doesn't need since he's always been able to sleep off his illnesses ever since he was young. Touma offers to give it to him by mouth if he has trouble swallowing, which Eiri says is even worse. After Eiri falls asleep, Touma says that it was just a joke and he didn't need to force him away (I'm having a VERY hard time believing that all of Touma's advances are just a joke). He hears him saying "...ku..." as he's sleeping, and we pop out of the flashback and Touma wonders whether his disappearance has something to do with Riku. Shuuichi yells out "I forgot!", and on the last page we see a sick looking Eiri with Riku tugging at him. To be continued....
So apparently Riku hasn't left the storyline yet. That whole not appearing for two tracks had me wondering what had become of the little guy, but I guess he's still around. I wonder who's been taking care of him, since Shuuichi apparently forgot. But I guess Eiri felt concerned enough to do something about it (or maybe it's just the illness messing with his mind :P) But, dammit, I still want to see what happens with Shuuichi and Eiri meet up again. This conflict must be resolved! Anyway, here are the scans. Nurse Touma will destroy your sanity....
