The castle isn't going to keep everyone here forever, but all these scares have got me thinking. ... What if it did? Would I be upset? Of course. Would I accept it? ... I don't know. I'm just a guy. I've got simple needs and desires, and I have them all, pretty much, but it's -- not enough. Something's missing. Life seems so frozen. It just wouldn't be the same.

I've made a life for myself in Paradisa, and I haven't been this happy in a long time. It's not the real world, but it's better than what I had. I'm sure Donna feels the same. I feel better about us, not only because we're, well, together, but we're talking again. God, I missed her. God... Jesus.

I don't even want to think about what it'll be like for us back home, when she comes back.

There's a lot of people that I'd like to see, a lot of people I'd like to start over with, but I'd never wish being stuck here on anyone. I missed -- having friends. I missed seeing a familiar face everyday.

Jennie, I hope wherever you are right now, you're happy. I wish we could have gotten the chance to be friends, like I said we would be. I miss you.

Mom, I hope you're safe. I'm sorry I keep abandoning you. I promise I'll visit more the day I realize how precious time really is. I love you.

I can't believe how close I've been to losing everything.

Has anyone tried bargaining with the castle, before?

I lost something that I can live without, but it's incredibly frustrating. Incredibly.

I doubt it'd be a good idea to ask the castle for anything when it's wigging out, anyway. What if our bodies were actually in pods out in a world that's been overtaken by super-genius apes and this has all been some kind of virtual reality dream, like we've been forced into a computer program? What if all of these dead dinosaurs and Grande Menaces were just glitches?

... Well. That's kind of a depressing theory.
