Case 3

[manofgnee]

...Ok, quick question. This may seem stupid, but, a few days ago, when everybody was getting reeeeeeally personal...that was a curse, right?

And, and today, all the earthquakes and the screaming animals...that's one too, I assume? This isn't normal?

Are t Or do they get worse? Does anybody keep track of them? Cuz a lot of people seem to dislike them...but nobody seems to do anything.
Huh. Oh well.
Note to self. Keep curse diary. Look for repeats.


That being said, they really are ten kinds of uncool...Also, alleyways are not the best place to be during an earthquake, so I've abandoned my box for now.

Watanuki, can I stay with you until the quakes are done?

Dear Corwallis,

I've decided that, until I get home or you/Connie/Worth/somebody else I know gets here, I'm going to keep a diary journal of my escapades here for reference!

I met two of my heroes here already, but I think Sherlock Holmes is mad at me because I like paranormal investigating...oh well. I'll prove that its a legit field of business!

How are things back home? Is the investigation going well? Or is it really at a standstill while I'm gone, like people tell me? I hope things are ok.

Oh, gotta go, another quake is starting and they make it hard to write. Bye!

That's really noble and impressive. It'd be nice for there to be some way to stop people from getting hurt. One of Thomas' best friends was really hurt over the curse weekend.

...I hope they're ok...

That's just one more reason to find a way to keep people safe. I'll find something, I know it!

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

She...well evidently she died.

You're pretty determined there.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

What? She...oh christ.

If I'm not, who will be?

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

Yeah but I don't think she came back City!dead so that's a plus.

Probably nobody, people get disillusioned here really fast.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...City!dead?

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

Um dead in the City isn't really dead. You come back to life but you don't have a hear beat and can't go home.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...oh.

That's...that's not good.

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

No, it's really not...

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I...just gotta make sure I don't die...cuz I need to go home.

I don't know what I'd do if I got stuck here permanently...

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it shouldn't' be too hard to not die here as long as you stay out of the Underground and stuff.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I heard there were monsters down there, yeah? Do they actually stay down there?

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

There are monsters and they do stay down there.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, as long as they stay down there, I haven't got any reason to go after them!

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

Good~

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Even though this place is sort of messed up, I do think I like it.

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

I almost prefer it to my home.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

There are a lot of interesting things here...I just wish my friends from home were here, that's all. Oh well, we can't get everything, right?

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

You'd really wish them here?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...Sometimes I guess I'm too selfish for my own good.

I just miss them, a lot. That's all.

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

That's not that selfish, it's okay. I think I'd feel that way if Thomas wasn't here.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Well, as long as they're home and safe, I can manage.

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

I bet they are. And plus when you go home it'll be like this never happened.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Really? But I'd forget all the cool people here...

Man. Sort of a nasty catch-22 this place has going on.

[familyshares.livejournal.com]

It'd probably do something really wonky to the timeline if people could remember.
