[Before classes start, Shortpack is chillin' eating breakfast, ready to start the day. His journal is open beside him]
I was dragged off to private tutoring at the Institute before I had a chance to start high school, this feels like a second chance to find out what it's really like. I've got to admit, I'm kinda excited.

Has anyone ever heard of a loss running its full week, then instead of the lossee turning back to normal...the loss changes into something else?
...No reason for asking. [Except an angry Stitchpunk who's now surging with testosterone] I'm just curious.

[Someone's humming 'Roller-Coaster of Love', because that sort of crap stays in your head for weeks after hearing it]
If every crazy event here involved wacky assault courses and epic roller-coasters at the end, I bet people would be a whole lot less annoyed about being stuck here. I'd pick riding a robotic rhino over screaming and running for my life any day.
Just saying.

Is it just me, or have we had a sudden influx of newcomers?

[Because he promised her he'd keep her informed of these things, Shortpack replicates the drawing 6 recently made into his journal. Then, figuring 7 would be travelling and probably less likely to pick up her journal for a while, decided to get her attention the best way he knew how. Besides, he could talk to her like this on the move, convenience was a beautiful thing]
Uh, hey, 7? I'm giving you a heads-up, 6 has been drawing again.

Days after and I'm still coughing up sunflower seeds. Remind me never to tempt the castle ever, ever again.
Oh and guy who decided it would be funny to use hamster balls as soccer balls?
[And this part, Ragna? This part is RIGHT IN YOUR HEAD] We'll remember you.

[Anyone in the lobby today will find two little hamster balls, rolling around. That's because each little ball has a little hamster in it. How are they there? Well, the castle thought it'd be funny.
Feel free to do as you like with them as they roll about quite happily, but if you punt them down the stairs, they will REMEMBER and hunt you down when they get back to normal. Oh yes, they will]

[There's a new addition to your lobby; it's a little cage with oodles of tubes winding in and out of it, with a little wheel and a little food dish and a little water dish …. and two little nameplates reading “Shortpack” and “7”]
[And inside, are two little Panda Hamsters]
[One is currently running actively around, up and through the tubes, looking like she's trying every nook and corner for a weak spot in order to escape.]
[The other is pressed up against the plastic, staring at the passerbys. You can probably tell what he's thinking, as he's thinking it rather loudly.]
[So come say hi to thepissed off adorable little residents!]

[And Shortpack is up on the roof, because he hears that’s a good brooding spot. He’s doodling in his journal, no actual pictures, just the sort of random patterns a person sketches down when their mind is elsewhere]
Do you ever regret not saying something to someone when you had the chance, before it was too late? Even if it might not have made a difference?
...Just idle curiosity.
[[ooc: Open or journal thanks for the nightmare, asshats]]

Not that I want to bring up bad memories of crazed warning from an even more crazed bird-man, but wouldn't you say mass nosebleeds/eyebleeds/any-other-type-of-bleed could be a sign of some kind of sickness? I mean, it's a bit weird, so many people getting the same symptoms at once.
...I'm getting a feeling this is going to be one of my 'Shortpack you shouldn't say things' moments.

As much as I missed wandering around, I've got to admit, it's good to be back at the castle. Even if it has crazy moodswings, at least there are no plagues here, right?

[it's been a long couple of days with no company other than the occasional journal encounter and two guys following her the whole way, but they've finally caught up with the expedition crew~! Ino hops off Kyle's back (what, she was tired of running and he offered 8|) and splashes over to go meet up with the various mounts and such. she's also pretty muddy, along with the others, but never mind that fff]
Hey, guys!

You know, I spent the better part of puberty wishing I was just like everybody else. Now I've experienced being 'normal', it's not as great as I thought it would be. Sure, it was a lot easier but you'd be surprised of the sort of things you miss at five-foot something that you don't miss at ground-level.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm happy with who I am. Thanks for the lesson, Paradisa. Even if you took way too long to teach it.

Who: 7 and Shortpack
What: Enjoying the Santa Monica Pier
When: Friday noonish, when Shortpack's supposed to be in work
Where: Santa Monica Pier, and all that that implies!
Rating: PG
[[ooc: Continuation of this]]
7 pauses a moment, thoughful, before answering Shortpack.
"A little bit of both. I think it would be hard to enjoy a city like this at our size, but on the other hand I miss ... well, being myself. This is a little much to get used to, all at once."
She leans back in the chair, her expression both thoughtful and distant as she looks out at the crowd.
