[ Oh look, he's scared away all the birds from the trees again. ]

I've been wandering around bloody forest for nearly a month now. A month! I've searched for you in every nook and cranny— through the City proper, the beach, that park. I would have nearly trekked up that mountain if I hadn't decided to be sensible for once.

Problems?

[anoblemouse.livejournal.com]

I do not blame her.

[not-so-smooth.livejournal.com]

Hey there, I'm Sam. I guess you're staying in our warehouse?

[nobodyneedknow.livejournal.com]

You're terribly loud.

I don't think you're all right.

Assuming you've gone to sleep as usual, wake up.
