an open book, a closed soul

This may be the most difficult thing I have ever done. He was my mentor, my sempai, my friend. I know that I cannot possibly hope to replace him and I wouldn't even dare try. I've never been very good at giving comfort or knowing the right things to say, but I can listen. We can share memories of happier times and perhaps get to know each other in the process.

As for the state of the ship, so to speak, even more than before, we're holding things together with shoestrings and wishes. Inasmuch as I'm taking over, I'll be making some changes, sending a couple into hibernation for awhile. If you don't see someone online, then good chance they're not around right now. I don't have his strength, or his patience, and I'm not always such a nice guy. Maybe one of you can help me with that....

Other than that... Hello, my name is Amano Shinji, better known as Tora. Yoroshiku.
