Fourth Wind

Okay, so, I've been ASLEEP as it's my day off and... what's all this I'm hearing about cereal and box tops? I'm really confused... can someone please explain what's going on?

And for that matter, what DO they mean by cereal? I thought that was just dried grain...

That's pretty much what cereal is here, but they add a lot of sugar and color and stuff to make it more attractive. Actually, it usually just tastes like sugar.

. . . You should go look at your mail. It'll explain everything.

That just sounds terrible, if you ask me.

Guess I have no choice.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

I've already got three, eh-heh. I think I want my old clothes back, at the very least.

... Don't you think it's a bit disturbing to have a kid with a patch eye on the cover? Are they implying something?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

It is a bit strange . . . I really don't know what it means, though, aside from that we should just be careful.

The town likes to play harmless pranks, sometimes. Maybe this is one of them.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

I don't think I'll be taking any chances, Lucas.

... And really, you shouldn't either. Not this time.

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

I know. I'm not stupid. I'll wait a little while first to see if anything happens.

THE IRONY OF THIS CONVERSATION AHHHHH

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

I'm counting on you, Lucas. I'll see what I can find out, too.

=D

I really hope it's just something silly. Like the candy hearts. Anyway, be careful, Miss Virginia.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Candy hearts?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Back in February, when I first got here. Um. It's kind of a long story, but the town gave out candy hearts that made people act funny.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

... Like little bonemeal and sugar candy hearts?

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Bone meal . . . ? I think sugar is right. Someone told me later that I started talking like Shakespeare.

. . . I'm still not too sure who that is.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Weird...

[a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Nothing really terrible happened, but no one got anything back, either.

[hourai-branch.livejournal.com]

It's probably a trick by the town.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

I'm starting to get the idea that I'll need to deal with this thing a lot.

[hourai-branch.livejournal.com]

All the time?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Is it that bad?

[hourai-branch.livejournal.com]

Yeah.
