W-what is this cold feeling. . .? Even my water was frozen into ice! S-so dark. . .

[Long pause, his journal dropped to the floor, his breath rasping uneasily, and his voice tight with tension and restraint.] M-Martel, why? I am not wrong! Why are you re-re-reje-je. . .!!! NO. What's that spell name?! EXPECTO PATRONUM!!!

Gone. The spell worked. That was nothing. She's alive. She will always be alive and I am strong enough to protect her. I haven't failed yet. [Shakey voice] My journal. . .here it is.

Get... stop! I.. I can't go through that... not again... please...

No.

Expecto Patronum.

Why? The people who are petrified, the Dementors...

I explored the castle last night. Not all of it, it's too big for that. But enough to begin to see the face it wears in the darkness.

Now I'll do so in the daylight. I wonder if it will be the same.

Oh, hell. Not them again. Leave me alone!

Expecto Patronum!

Not again... not that again, please... Simone... Jan... Stop it! Go away!

It's...over. She's gone, I've done my mourning, I...it's just those things, anyway.

[a soft mewing]

Heh. Hey, Kat...are they getting to you, too? At least you haven't run into any.

I suppose I should go down and get some chocolate...

I do wish there was another way to get food - I can't help but...feel...

No. No, I will not -

[a sharp gasp; soft, stilted steps as he stumbles]

no I can't watch this again, please stop crying, no, no stop SCREAMING

[a dull thump as his hands hit the floor]

should have been another way, wasn't, sometimes there - no mercy, not even for you

[deep, hoarse breaths]

can't...breath...no, won't fail her, not her as well I won't let you stop me now.

[the air crackles as a wand slices through it]

EXPECTO PATRONUM.

Well. That was an experience. I must say I'm growing rather weary of reliving past traumas.

Honestly, is that the best you can do? I like that my Patronus is a dragon, though. Very fitting.

Does everyone just leave their books open while this is happening? It's creeping me out.
Looking back at the entries people made lately, I think it'd just be safer to stay up here in my room... It's not like those things have any reason to come up here--

Slytherin Quidditch lot, I'm going out for so --

Well then, good thing I'm ready for you, bea --

[but the tone is shortlived as:]

No, no, this isn't -- stop. Stop, I can't -- I won't -- It was the only way to end --

Expec - expec -- EXPECTO PATRONUM!

Huh? Giant dead snake on the lawn. Seems like some animals tried to scavenge off it, but it looks pretty old so the meat's probably really tough and nasty.

I've seen a bigger snake before.

Start focusing less on inter-house competition and finding dates - pay more attention to these Dementors and the fact that people as well as animals have been found petrified, instead.

If it's a prank, stop. It's causing unnecessary problems to deal with.

At least some of you have the right idea.

Is there some kind of law around here about leaving your book open when you wander around?

And if so, who do I talk to about getting it repealed?

Oh? A Dementor? You'll have to be preying on somebody else tonight.

Expecto Patronum!

 So, the past few days the dementors have been running around, first day I was on the stairs and none of them came near me, and now I'm in the great hall.. are they really as scary as people are making them.. ?

[A sigh]

I'm not sure if I should go looking for more people or not..

I’m disappointed with many of you.

It is bad enough to suffer breakdowns in private. However, I open my journal, and all I see are complaints and tears and whining about the past, the present, and other such woes. Such sob-stories, when put on display for the whole world, make you look weak. You show your most vulnerable moments to people who could be extremely skilled at digging their claws in at just the right moment.

We all have a bad memory of some sort, but to allow mere spirits to effect us in such ways? Please. Have some dignity, pull yourselves together, and make more of an effort.

I’m glad, at least, to see many of the people I considered strong have not given in to themselves. But there always remains a few I thought were capable that have crumbled under the slightest pressure. Surely you can do better than that, Dementors or not.

Either survive or be killed, don’t hover between the two desperately.

Expecto Patronum.

[ OOC: Please pretend this was a few hours earlier. D: I had to take care of something.  Also, the Dementors brought back his memory of Rinali being taken from him when she was younger. :( ]

They're gone. I hope that everyone is safe. I will have chocolates with me, so if anyone is still feeling unwell or would simply like some, please let me know and I will be glad to deliver it to you or your friends.

Geez you open your book for one minute and everybody's bitching like they're about to pop a baby out. [kinda still there if you squint]

[sighs]

Listen up everybody. Listen good because I won't repeat myself.

All this stuff with people collapsing and whatnot, do you really think it's worth crying about it? The world will keep going whether you're dead or not, you don't mean much in it anyway. Hey, that's life. It's not about being fair.

Mourning and that shit isn't the way to live. You're barely living at all if you do that.

A world without wine.

That is depressing.

I've heard stories... All sorts of stories! These Dementor things are extremely hazardous, so... I'm not leaving the library anymore. I'm staying here until this all blows over. I've got these invisible books to keep me busy for a while, anyway.

[short pause]

Incidentally, I did try the Expecto Patronum spell, just out of curiosity. After a few tries, I discovered that my patronus is a badger. Strange choice... It's probably because I like to lock myself in the library, similar to how a badger hides out in its burrow. But I would've preferred something a bit bigger. Like a-

Miss... Ah, how horrible of me. I don't remember getting your name! How rude of me.

But you are all right? I'm sorry for not escorting you to the clinic or back to your room, but I thought it best to rid the area of the Dementors so no one else would be harmed.

Vergil. How are you?

I'm sorry if I've been a bit quiet. It's just that, lately, I've been looking for my cousin, Rikku. It's hard to believe that she's really gone, but I've looked everywhere and... I need to finally acknowledge that it's true.

She'll be alright, I know. It'd just be wonderful to... Well, there's no use in focusing on the past when I still have the present, right?

Its rather amusing watching the posting subjects ripple through various inhabitants, actually. One person posts about something and inevitably there shall be more of them. Of course, everyone notices this I expect, but it still does not negate the interest it manages to garner from me.

[identity profile] dancingstrings.livejournal.com
I really wanted to write something unique and attention-grabbing, but what with all the crying and collapsing, plus the people complaining about the crying and collapsing, I've got nothing interesting enough. No, wait.

SHIT, THERE'S A GIANT DEAD SNAKE OUTSIDE. Or did someone cover that already?


Anyway, we're supposed to take dates to this dance or something? Are there any attractive women who don't have a date yet? I don't feel like being unrealistically optimistic, so I guess not.

About the Archive

"Paradisa Lost" is the archive of what the journals contained between December 1st, 2006 and January 10th, 2012. On that final day, Paradisa issued new journals, so that the residents could fill them up again. While there are still residents around who have old journals, we have chosen to preserve the old journals here for muns' reference and history.

"Lost" in the title refers to both the old journals that the residents once kept, and also to our move to Dreamwidth from the original Livejournal community, where Paradisa started. It is a fresh start for muns, as well as for the characters.
