... It's been really slow, lately.

Comments

Hm? What is?

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

The rate of people writing in their journals.

[so-many-needs.livejournal.com]

Wrist cramps, maybe?

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

Dictating, then?

[so-many-needs.livejournal.com]

...Rash of sore throat attacks?

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

Makes as much sense as anything else, I guess.

[sofaultless.livejournal.com]

They're probably all crying over the loss of their precious, precious babies.

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

You would think most people would be loud about that.

[sofaultless.livejournal.com]

You would think, but eventually people must realize that crying into these books is a show of weakness and a pathetic cry for help.

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

It doesn't seem like that would be something that would stop them.

[formydreams.livejournal.com]

Maybe it's because they are still a little bit upset about their children and are trying to keep themselves busy with other things, hm?

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

It began before they disappeared.

[oirokenojutsu.livejournal.com]

People are probably making up for all the sleep they lost last week.

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

.. Oh. I forgot about that.

[oirokenojutsu.livejournal.com]

Or maybe they're just being lazy and anti-social...

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

..... Being anti-social is lazy?

[oirokenojutsu.livejournal.com]

It can be! I don't see what's so great about avoiding people.

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

People probably have their reasons.

[oirokenojutsu.livejournal.com]

I guess...

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

[a pause] You've been doing alright? Since yours disappeared.

[oirokenojutsu.livejournal.com]

[pauses too] Oh, yeah. I'm okay. Better than I was the first day at least, heh!

[greenintights.livejournal.com]

Are you missing your baby?

[thefifth.livejournal.com]

No.
