[As far as Hanna is concerned, yesterday didn't happen. All that anger and jealousy he was venting about? Nobody knows about it. You ask him about it, he'll just change the topic again and again until it's finally dropped.

He's got more important things to worry about, anyway. Like the fact that Euphie's birthday is on Monday, and he lost a whole day of planning due to yesterday.

So he's making a list of things he's gonna need to throw the best party he can for on of his closest in-City friends. While nursing the worst hangover he's had in months.

He's also wearing a new sweater, and it looks like he's been crying recently.]


Okay...got a list of supplies...need to get invitations, decorations...jeez, it's been so long since I've been to a birthday party...Hope I can actually remember how to throw one properly.

[He frowns and looks at the list of supplies and things he'll need, before going to get some more water.]

[FILTERED AWAY FROM EUPHIE//UNHACKABLE]

Okay. So.

Euphie's birthday is on Monday...and I'm going to be throwing her the greatest party ever on Sunday in Xanadu...it's gonna be a picnic party with flexibility for zoo trips.

And it's gonna be awesome...except I'm sort of lost on exactly planning it out. See, I've never planned a party before, and the last time I went to one was when I was 10, so I'm really out of touch.

What, besides food and decorations, do I need to make this party amazing?

Also...I'm stumped on what to do for a gift. I have one idea, though...but I'm not sure. She deserves a great birthday...

...uh.

This is also an informal invite to the party. She knows its gonna happen, but we can still make the details a big surprise to her!!

I think if Gallahad came back now, and he saw me, he'd just be so mad at me...I keep telling myself, 'it's okay, he's home, they're all home and you know where they are' so that I'll actually take care of myself, but...doesn't help.

Actually, that makes it a whole lot worse. Because they're there, and I'm here. And I never had friends before at home, not ever. I was the guy that society forgot, but that was okay because I was used to that. And I had my apartment and my job and I could do my investigating and nobody would bother me...even if I wanted them to.

But then Gallahad showed up and I had a friend, for the first time in my life, and now I don't know what to do without him. Or them. Or anybody here.

Because I have friends here...and I lose them too. Doumeki, Timothy, Zuko, Watanuki, Thomas and Harry, I really liked all of them, and I lost them. But with them...

...It's not the same, because I DON'T know where they are or if they're safe.
I just worry and I can't stop thinking about them. And they don't know who I am anymore, so it's pointless too.
And someday, the other people I really care about here are gonna leave too...Sam and Dean and Euphie and Doll and Penny, and so many others, they're gonna go home to places that I can't understand or be friends with them in. Like our friendship never really happened. And with Sam and Doll and Penny and Euphie, it's even worse...I haven't had a family since I was 16. And I've got one again, and it's absolutely wonderful and I love it...

But it's not forever. One day it's gonna end and it'll be like that family never existed. Just like when I was 16.

...And someday, I'm gonna be all alone again. Just like before Gallahad. Only this time, I'll know what it's like to actually have friends.

And I don't think I'll be able to go back to being alone again so easily...I mean, Gallahad's been gone for about 2 months, and I'm only just starting to clean up the apartment, I'm still not eating right, and I haven't really been able to sleep a whole night in 2 months.

's stupid. He always kept the nightmares away, just by being there...and I can't ask anybody else to help with that, because the rest of the world needs to sleep to.
Heh. I think part of me was in love with him, because I'd never had that kind of friend before...I think part of me is in love with all the people I'm really close to here. Some maybe more than others. That makes it ever worse...

...I'm just waiting for the day when everybody else leaves. Or the day I go home and they've all forgotten me or moved on. I know one of those days is coming...I never stop thinking about it, it's always in the back of my brain eating away at every little good thing that happens here.

When I'm alone again...it's gonna be different, and it's gonna be a whole lot worse. Because I've had something I never had before.

I just hope that I'll be able to handle it again. Because right now, I don't think I can.

[ooc: Elephant in the Corner curse. Hanna's deepest fears about being alone are revealed!]

Case 79

...I think I've been inside a bit too long.

I mean, the kids are fantastic and adorable and awesome and everything...but looking after them is basically a full time job. Which, in combination with my actual full time job and my favorite pastime of investigatin'...doesn't really leave me with free time.

Well, at least my sleep schedule is regular again, even if I still think the apartment is too empty and quiet...

...Wait, what was I saying again? Oh, yeah, being inside too long. I love everything I've been doing lately, but I think I need a break. Not a long one, mind, just...like an hour or so...I just need to sit outside for a minute, you know? Lightbulb light doesn't hold up to good ole fashioned sunlight! Or the beach. I haven't been to the beach in a while...

Ahiru, I know it's short notice, but I was wondering if you'd be able to look after the flowershop for an hour or so? I promise I'll pay you extra...and include ice cream too!!

Doll, if you or Penny are available, could you make sure the kids are okay? I just fed em, so I think they'll be set for a while.
...Oh, except that Little Sam has learned this new 'trick', which I don't think he should be able to do, since he isn't even walking yet.
He's somehow managed to find a way to wiggle out of the box he and the other puppies and Lassie are in. I don't know how he's doing it, but he doesn't get too far. Just something watch for.

...Is that normal, by the way?


TOTALLY UNRELATED, BUT.

Sam, didja find anything new to add to the notes? I'm sorry I haven't been able to do a whole lot...

This is a terrible curse. Forget zombie sheep or brain slugs, this is pure evil. Whyyy...
less than 2 minutes ago from Network/Echodevice/Citydeck

I mean, I have too much to say! This is way too restricting, City. I do not approve.
about 5 minutes ago from Network/Echodevice/Citydeck

And why do you keep cutting me off? Augh...Anyway, puppies are okay. Started helping Lassie feed them yesterday. They have such cute little teeth! Still need to name them...got na
about 10 minutes ago from Network/Echodevice/Citydeck

mes for 3 of them though. But they're a secret till the others get names! Wouldn't be fair...hey, wait. You cut me off again!
about 1 hour ago from Network/Echodevice/Citydeck

This sucks. This really sucks. If you guys wanna talk, let's just do it in person. It'll probably be easier that way...
about 1 hour(s) ago from Network/Echodevice/Citydeck

Hey, when are the puppies supposed to open their eyes, anyway? I know it's still early, but I'm way excited! I can't wait till they see me for the first time!
about 2 hour(s) ago from Network/Echodevice/Citydeck

...Okay, I need a nap. Still exhausted, still sleeping in the tub. Doll, if you're not busy, could you come keep an eye on the little guys for me? Maybe feed them if Lassie needs help?

Uhh...Doll? Sam? Penny?

You guys are my go-to's for dog stuff, and...uh...

I think I need you guys right now. I can't be sure, since I'm still not good with this stuff, but...


Ok, ok, Lassie was acting all weird today. Weirder than normal, I mean. Usually she's just sort of grouchy and mean to me, right, since she doesn't really like me...but today, she was all quiet, and she didn't try to bite me...

And then I couldn't find her, but then I found her in the closet, and she was just sort of sleeping in this big ole' shoebox, and...well, I dunno what it all means.
I looked in my dog book, and I got 2 options. 1- she's sick, which I don't really think is true since she ate all of her dinner and mine (don't ask), so...I think it might be 2.

And 2 is that she's gonna have the puppies really soon and I might be able to take care of her, but I'm not ready for them yet!! I mean, there's lots of setup stuff I have to do right, and I haven't done it yet cuz I thought I had more time...and oh jeez, they aren't even here yet and I'm already getting stuff wrong...

So...uh...since you guys are my friends and you know much more about dogs than me, I think that I'm entirely justified when I beg you for help.

So...uh...HELP!

[ooc: Lassie is gonna have the puppies in about 2 days, methinks. Given that she was pregnant at the time of Timmy's departure in June (for an unknown period of time), I figured it'd be time.]

Case 71

manofgnee: (-Sad little Hanna-)
I still can't find Gallahad...I'm really worried now, it's not like him to be gone this long without leaving a note or telling me or something...

I've checked everywhere...Gallahad, c'mon, man...if you're mad at me, you can just say so...whatever I did, I'm sorry!! If there's something wrong, you can talk to me, it's what friends do...

...

Just...just lemme know you're ok. Please. I'm really worried.


If anybody sees Gallahad anywhere, just lemme know...or let him know that I'm worried, that's all. Like I said, this is weird for him, so something must have happened...

He can't have left...he just can't have...c'mon, Gallahad, please...just show up, even if it's only for a second...


...Also, Di Di got Lassie down to see a vet. She is definitely pregnant. Umm...I think I still need some help with puppy preparation. Doll, you said you'd help, right? I think I'm gonna need it...

Heh. Puppies. Wow...I know that I'll be looking after them and everything, but I still dunno if they'll like me...I hope they will!
I bet they'll be cute...or that Lassie will let me even look at them...

[PRIVATE//OH SO VERY HACKABLE]

He can't be gone...Gallahad can't have left the City. What am I supposed to do without him? He was...he said he'd never leave...

...is this because I went home first? Is that what this is? Why...I just don't...Gallahad can't be gone. Worth is wrong. He's not just another stray that eventually wanders home...

...he's my friend. He cares about me...he wouldn't have left, and even if he did, he wouldn't leave without telling me at the very least...

Everybody is leaving...what am I supposed to do...?

...Stupid apartment is too big, and too quiet. I'd rather have my crummy little place back. At least I'd have my best friend with me then...

...Please come home, Gallahad. I need you...you can't be gone, please...please just come home...

Still a girl. This is not fun. This is the exact opposite of fun. Un-fun.


I got exactly no sleep last night because of this...my stupid chest kept me up, being all distracting and bouncy and in the way when I wanna sleep on my stomach...ugh, and even the clothes that Doll lent me don't fit quite right...

AND my hormones are completely out of whack on top of that. I cried when I tried to watch monster movies last night. I CRIED. WHY DID I DO THAT I DON'T EVEN KNOW AAAUGH. And now I'm all grouchy and I hate being grouchy...and I feel things that are weird and deeply disturbing to me, and I can't go out of the apartment because I know somebody will laugh at me and think I'm ugly...and...and OH GOD when did I start caring whether or not people think I'm ugly?

SEE? SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING? THIS IS NOT COOL!! UNCOOL! UN-FUN!!

Why can't this be over already? I think I've learned to properly appreciate the female body now, City, thank you...can I go back to being myself now, please?

Jeez, and I felt like a freak before this happened...

...if anybody needs me, I'll be in the apartment, eating ice cream.
