Case 108

[manofgnee]

...I really need to practice swimming more often. But not for a good, long while...I don't think I can look at a big body of water without getting seasick and angry right now. Ugh. Too...much...water...


...Well, at least the kids are okay. They seemed to enjoy the boat ride until things got significantly less fun, but they're all okay, Little Sam is okay...and I somehow didn't drown! That's sort of awesome. Great way to start off my favorite month, by not dying. Hope I can keep that record up...or down...or whatever.


...er. Anyway. Happy October!! We only have 30 days to get ready for Halloween! Should I dress up this year...

And, and, on October 5th, the puppies celebrate their 2 month birthday!! In all the books I've been reading, this marks the period where they can start to be taken to new permanent homes...I'm not sure if I'm 100% ready for that yet, but I guess I should start letting interested people come take a look and stuff.

...soo...uh...until it sank, was the boat nice?

October 5th's me actual birthday! Not jus'...by months or sommat. D'you celebrate their birthdays every month?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Oh, happy birthday!! We're gonna have to get you a cake and do party related things.

Nah, just this one since, in puppy terms, I guess its when they can start leaving home.

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

It's not me birthday yet. An' y'don't 'ave to, s'fine.

Oh, aye, I see.

Glad I weren't on the boat if it crashed. No-one drowned, yeah?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

But I want to...friends do that sort of thing, right?

You weren't on it either? And yeah, I think nobody got hurt.

[justcautious.livejournal.com]

Well, long as you want to...

Yeah, me an' Ray was on the police buildin' until the rainbows came out.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I do!!

I was on top of my apartment.

Are you ready for your beating?

[deadly_legacy]

Hanna...

...yes...

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

...Er...

Please don't kill me...? I tried...

Bend ov...*cough*

[deadly_legacy]

Why didn't you ask for help? [Feels awful that she didn't try harder to find him someone. She did ask around a little.]

...Just...punch me in the gut?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

I tried, I really did!! I had to get Lassie, Iznagi, and the kids settled first...once they were safe and I made sure that I got the flower shop boarded up, I tried to find somebody, but everybody was already paired up.

You won't know when or where it's coming. Just know it IS coming! bwa ha ha...

[deadly_legacy]

Even the flower shop first? Oh, Hanna... [She was so incredibly worried when she didn't see you on the ship.]

[citadelspirit.livejournal.com]

Swimming is a fundamental human skill. Wouldn't you hate to die because someone pushed you in the lake?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Heck no! I just need to practice my swimming more, I'm a bit out of practice.

[existais.livejournal.com]

The kids?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Heh, that's what I call my puppies.

[existais.livejournal.com]

Ah-! How many?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

15!

[existais.livejournal.com]

Ah- how do you feed so many?

[cuffmeonce.livejournal.com]

Glad everything with the boat turned out all right. Alexis and I'll come by and look at the puppies. We can take ours home when ever you like.

And the answer to dressing up is always yes.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Course!! I bet they'll be glad to meet you!

All right then, I'm doing it! I love Halloween, I dress up every year...but the City threw me off. I'm half expecting some kind of curse that turns you into your costume...

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

I'm so, so glad you and the puppies're okay. I looked all over that ark for you. Good thing it wasn't a real flood, right?

...It was a nice boat.

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Heh, yeah. I waited it out on the roof, so...but the kids were okay, I made sure they got on with no problems.

Aaand then it sank. Why did that happen, anyway?

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

That sounds cold. And wet. I mean, there was plenty of that on the beach, too, after the wrecking, but... blah. Everyone's going to come down with a cold this month, I think.

Would you believe me if I said that it got whacked by a giant whale?

[manofgnee.livejournal.com]

Oh no! That's terrible, nobody can get sick close to Halloween!!

...Actually? I would. Stranger things have happened.

[horrible-penny.livejournal.com]

It's okay. There's plenty of time to get better between now and then.

Good! In that case, a giant whale attacked the ship, sank it, and then helped people get to the beach we were stuck on. I'm still kind of confused about its motives.
