Contemplation.

[mulan-er-ping.livejournal.com]

For the people that are missing memories...is it normal to have thoughts of giving up anything for a glimpse of them? It is a bit hard, I suppose, to not have any memories outside of a war. I made many great friends in that war, ones I fear I will never see again. But the only memories I have to revisit at night are cruel images of dying men on the battlefield. Is it normal to not dream, here?

Are there any perks to being here? Has anyone found out something good about this place? I'm sure there must be something positive to outweight the misery it causes! Aside from the generous hospitality and nice weather, that is.

Anyhow, I've been reading in the library lately since Belle stayed there during the Ball night rather than accompanying me, and I've read a book that pins down grief in five stages:

Denial
Anger
Bargaining
Depression
Acceptance

I think I'm witnessing these stages in the people here, though some seem to be skipping a few symptoms. Has anyone else noticed any crazy patterns in the people here?

Oh, and PS:

If you're 'stood up' by a girl, does it indicate she doesn't like you?

Well, here you are journal! I searched for you in the woods and among the knolls, but it seems I hidden you under a bed of gold in cave #12 by lake. No wonder I couldn't remember since I think paper and water don't mix.

Nothing particularly amazing happens. I befriended a few humans and an intelligent half-elf. I told tales to those who listened. Otherwise, I collected random plants in different areas to make medicine, books to gain knowledge, and finding new caves to expand my territory.

From now, journal, you'll stay by my side. Not that you're particularly useful. . .a dragon's immortality is eternity, compared to humans, humans are like mayflies.

I want out... I wanna go back home, dammit.

Excuse me.


I'm sorry if I may be interrupting anybody at the moment, but I was wondering if I might get some assistance in a certain matter.


You see, an acquaintance from back home is in great need of a new use for his time. I find myself unable to come up with anything of much interest, unfortunately.


Might anybody have a suggestion as to constructive hobbies he might look into?


[a pause in the writing, as she considers]


Also, I'm so sorry for the, ah, incident the other day. Oh god, I can't imagine how terrible it must have been for those caught up in it! I'm so sorry! Please don't throw me out of the castle...

I asked the castle to let me play Dungeon Dice Monsters. Of course it didn't let me. Not only did it not give me my game, but now my room is covered with pink furry dice, the kind you win at amusement parks and are supposed to hang in your car windshield. [scribbles a "x___x" face]

And I can't get rid of them. I tried chucking them out the window, but more only appeared. I tried asking the castle to take them back; it gave me a friggin' canary. A canary! Why--

Oh no. Oh no you did NOT just do that. I'll kill you damn--mmph
[In his attempt to strangle the bird, Otogi runs into a pile of the dice near his bed and trips into them, burried and unable to move]

[Thread] [Storytime in the evening]

[draconianheart.livejournal.com]

Who: Anyone can join in if you're in to listen to his stories or you want his crudely drawn maps of the wilderness of Paradisa.
What: Draco decided to finally open himself up to a crowd of humans to tell stories. Mostly what he knew of medival European folklore and tales of King Arthur. I made my referrences basing on a few Arthurian movies I had seen. (Monthy Python and the Holy Grail does not count. XD; )
When: Late afternoon, around late 4pm.
Where: By the knolls on the outskirts of the city. Gather your horses, it's a tad far, but you'll get your chance to see this dragon up close.
Rating: PG

[draconianheart.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm a little reluctant at this due to my fear of dragonslayers but. . .I'm inviting everyone to meet me on the knolls. From there, I'll be telling stories from my own time and knowledge. I heard requests about faeries (that of Tir na Nog), so I'll will tell that and more of magical beings that you thought existed in your dreams. [Draws a map of where he would be, which is on the outskirts of the city] And since I couldn't lie, I solemnly swear, everything I tell is true. I lived for. . .about half-a-century, so I know so many people and beings.

All I ask for payment is those sweet pasteries from those "café's" since they make good companion to tea, which I'm brewing for the event. If you want some tea, bring your own cups and plates.

Oh, and I got maps of the woods. I wonder if they're any of importance?

It's easy to get lost here. Not just in the castle but just by what's going on. I stay in my room for a few days and BOOM! All this stuff happens! And I don't know what's going on!

Jeez you think some of you people could calm down a bit and let other confused people like me know what the heck is going on!

So.

I finally heard those voices, Kyuzo-dono. It was pretty interesting until it got a little scary weird.

Can the castle really be aware of everything that's going on?







I'm not sure I want to know.

Hn. I'd almost be tempted to join the party down by the pool, if any of the guys were good looking. You'd think some people had never been stuck with a big group of men for months on end the way they've been screaming.
