[Outside, Hellboy is wading through leaves, which is actually a little more annoying than you'd think, even for someone who's like seven feet tall.

Eventually he gets frustrated with this stupid bullshit and stops moving, taking out his journal to dictate into it.]

Is it usually like this in the fall? This many leaves, I mean. You'd think the trees would run out of them by now.

At least it's kind of pretty. Reminds me of home, almost. Is there anyone else here from New England?

[He turns around at that point to walk back the way he came, back to the castle --

but the path he forged has already been filled in with leaves.]

Son of a --

[Have some incoherent growling over the journal, Paradisa, accompanied by more crunching as Hellboy trudges back to the castle.]

Yes, the autumn season is usually rich with multi-coloured decay. I find it extremely amusing that the dying leaves are the colours of lowly filth. [This is where he would chuckle is he ever chuckled.]

Unless something seems different about this place during this season? Explain what you mean by "like this".

Dictated.

I mean this many leaves. They're usually not this ... plentiful. Where I'm from, anyway.

[Good idea. Just let him get away with it.]

Plentiful? I'm still finding myself to be ve%ed. E%plain further. [Plentiful? Is he referring to how many trees there are? Many trees means many leaves... Or does he mean something else?]

What's so new about it?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

I'm from New York and I've never seen leaves falling for this long.

[hellshaped.livejournal.com]

[Not quite New England, but he'll take it!]

It's got to be this place. Were you here this time last year?

[waterproofed.livejournal.com]

Sort of? I was, but I went back home so I forgot all about it.

You know, it's times like this that remind me how much I love being able to fly.

[action] forever!

[hellshaped.livejournal.com]

[Flying people?! Hellboy looks around for the source of this voice!]

Must be convenient ...
