[Written/Accidental Voice]

[Fenimore is still not very adept with the journal system, so she spent about ten minutes trying to turn on the voice feature before eventually giving up. Unbenownst to her, though, she actually did turn it on, so the following is a mixture of voice (normal text) and written (italics).]

[sigh] This isn't working. Shirley will know. I'll ask her later. Now where did I...?

[A few moments later, printed words appear. They look pretty unpracticed, being both slow and somewhat messy. Strikes are basically scribbled out, but since she didn't put much effort in people can probably read them with a little effort.] Is there someone named Can I talk to Charlotte, I have something for you.

...Did that work? Hmm. ...Oh, yeah.

I also have If someone lost a hat [There is a pause, with a couple of inkdrops falling on the page.]

[After a moment, she picks up Seles's hat and turns it around in her hands.] What should I call it? I can't say it looks like a pancake....

brown, ridic round hat, I have found it.

...Good enough.

Yeah! She lives with me, in House 18. Sheena and her big brother Zelos are here, too.

[is this written or voice, by the way?]

[blessingone]

House 18? I guess I could ask Walter where that is. Thank you.

[I'd say voice.]

[throwshammers.livejournal.com]

No, thank you! One of us should be here to pick it up.

And, um, you're a new feather, right? My name's Colette. What's yours?

[Right. Thanks!]

[blessingone]

Okay. [...But Fenimore forgets to tell which house she's in. derp.]

A new wha--oh, right. I guess so. My name's Fenimore. It's nice to meet you.

[throwshammers.livejournal.com]

Nice to meet you, too! Fenimore's a very pretty name. Have you found a place to stay yet?

[blessingone]

Oh, uh, thanks. Colette is a nice name, too. [She thinks for a moment. Did their house have a number?] Yes. I'm staying with Shirley and Walter.

[throwshammers.livejournal.com]

Oh, I think I know them! A little bit. Are they friends from home?

[blessingone]

Yes--well, sort of. Shirley's my best friend. Walter is...more Shirley's friend than mine.

[throwshammers.livejournal.com]

That's great! You're lucky to have your best friend here. Most of my friends are here, too. I think it makes it a lot easier.

[blessingone]

Yeah. Well, a little. I probably shouldn't want them here, though.

[throwshammers.livejournal.com]

Don't feel bad about that! It's hard here, but wanting to be with your friends is just normal!

[blessingone]

...That's just what people say to make themselves feel better.

[throwshammers.livejournal.com]

E-eh...?

Um, I'm sorry! I didn't mean to upset you...!

[blessingone]

...It wasn't you. Don't worry about it.
