[dictated unknowingly]

Stupid Master, finding a way out and leaving me behind again. And why does he always have to leave me debts?! Ugh!

[Notices that the journal is open; and it switches to writing]

Ah...

I'm sorry, but if anyone knew General Cross Marian, he left again.

...And if he borrowed any money from you, please let me know.

Do you still have a lot left to pay back?

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

Well, with the new debts, it's now...[a couple papers shuffling]

2,173,612,864 of the town's currency.

[long.... pause]

[oirokenojutsu.livejournal.com]

S-SERIOUSLY?!

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

[a sigh] Yes.

I think he might of slacked off extra hard to rack up this much...

[oirokenojutsu.livejournal.com]

T-That's like...

like...

It would take YOUR WHOLE LIFE!

[waterbending.livejournal.com]

Okay, while that's true..

We have to.. be more positive.

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

[a sigh - so trying to keep his calm]

It's all right. At least...he can't add to it anymore?

[waterbending.livejournal.com]

..

Allen, that's terrible! How does he rack up so much debt..

We have to think of something, so we can pay all of this back.

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

It's because he's very at wasting money...maybe he's been saving up bills to give to me for awhile now...

Right! I..suppose I can take more jobs on in the town. That might help!

[waterbending.livejournal.com]

Ugh, that's so- so selfish and inconsiderate!

Yeah.. [sigh] I don't want you to overwork yourself though, Allen. It's unfair to you.. But what can we

Wait, I got it!

[Allen]

Remember some people in the castle had put on a play? Maybe we can do a play, and charge everyone to see it! The problem with the carnival was that the castle granted it as a wish, and everyone was able to attend for free. But if we're putting this on ourselves, we can charge for it.. And you'll get some of that debt knocked out.

How about that?

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

I know, but that's how my Master is. [a sigh]

It's all right, I'm used to it.

[Katara]

Eh? A play? Sure, if you think it will work!

...But what play would we do?

[ofthefaintsmile.livejournal.com]

It must be cleaning time.

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

Maybe...

But I wouldn't be surprised if he did find a way out.

[ofthefaintsmile.livejournal.com]

Really?

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

If anyone could find a way out of this place, it'd be my Master.

[ofthefaintsmile.livejournal.com]

I take it he's not the type to share.

[SAYS NOTHING. IS THINKING ALLEN'S MASTER KINDA... SUCKED. >>]

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

[ALLEN WOULD...AGREE RIGHT NOW >> ]

[practicalslouch.livejournal.com]

... Does your master usually do this to you?

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

[an annoyed huff at his Master] Yes.

[practicalslouch.livejournal.com]

That sucks. What did you do about it before?

[bloodlessfaith.livejournal.com]

What, he had a fucking problem with chronic borrowing and chronic failure to repay?

[ Snorts ]

Sorry he's gone. Do you have any sugar cubes?

[save-the-souls.livejournal.com]

Something like that...

And no, sorry I don't.

[bloodlessfaith.livejournal.com]

[ Sad horsey-exhalaltion ]

Damn.
