♐ 010 // [Voice]

Ya know, I'm gonna skip straight ta the point. Anyone care ta tell this old man what the date is? Last time I was here it was somethin' like August.

[He pauses for a minute. August sounded right to him, but it had been an exceptionally long time since he'd last been here. Was August even a legitimate month, it wasn't native to his calendar. He wasn't even certain if this is how you use the journal properly. It had been several months for him and his memory isn't very kind.]

Actually, is anyone I know even around anymore? I've got no idea how long it's been. Just when I thought I'd finally gotten rid of this place.

Think of it this way. My world has a limited amount of beautiful women who could be pulled into Luceti at any time. Luceti on the other hand, can pull in beautiful women not just from my home, but from thousands of other homes too! The odds of findin' the perfect body shoots up by a ton!

[Pervert logic.]

...I'm not even gonna ask.

[ not gonna ask WHAT you might ask. ]

[The only woman he ever loved has GONE.]

You already did! I was just explainin' it! [And keeping things light.]

[ not even gonna ask about what makes the perfect body. :| not about why. the why she might almost sorta kinda understand if she took at least five seconds to stop pretending she's a prude. ]

I'm guessing someone else's already told you that we're well into October.

[Big boobs, small waist, long legs = perfect woman for Raven. Especially boobs, he seems to really like those.]

Give me a minute ta think and I'll tell ya what was the last date I remember here... [A pause.] August twenty-six? I dunno the year, I haven't been gone over a year have I?

Nah, it's the same year. Lots has happened, though.

Really? But it's only been, well, almost two months I guess. What could've happened in such a short time?

Oh, you know. Shifts. Disappearances. Big disappearances.

Big ones? Uh, I don't get it.

[ two names. ] Derek. McCoy.

Ah, I see. I take it a lot of people got sent home then?

The list's long. I, for one, am unabashedly happy to see one come back. Sorry -- I mean...I know being here isn't the best.

Hey! Luceti ain't all that bad! Yeah, there's those experiments and drafts, and all that crap when people come and go. But if ya think of it like a little port town by the sea, then it don't seem so bad at all! At least things remain interestin'.

Easy to say for a guy who's been gone and back twice already.

[ teasing. ]

Now you're just bein' mean. I don't choose ta go and come back because I want too!

Or maybe I do. It's difficult fer me ta say~

...Difficult for you to tell the truth, you mean.

I happen ta be a very honest person! I'm just selective with my honesty. I don't say what ya don't need ta know.

But enough about me! I wanna know what's been goin' on since I've been wandering around back home.

You're gonna cry when you hear about the Shift you missed.

Oh? And what would this shift be about then?

Fairy tales. You missed the chance to save all the princesses with a kiss.

I'm not a fan of princesses and noble crap. I'm quite glad I missed that then!

Awh. But it was all fake and fairy tailish. I spent a afternoon being unable to talk. Ten bucks says you would've been the one to break the curse if you'd been here.

[ not with a kiss, though. it wasn't a kiss-broken curse. it was a conversationally broken curse. ]

[Wow, that was a dirty though that crossed my mind...]

Knowin' my luck, I would've been put in a horrible situation myself. Why'd you say I could've broken your curse? [Fairy tales, Raven is not familiar with them.]

[ oh dear god. ]

The curse demanded an interesting enough conversational partner to break the silence. I think you could've done it.

Ya mean all I had ta do was talk a load of crap until I hit the magic word?
