This again, huh?

Well, I'm seventeen this time too.  So if someone needs help, I can give it.

And the Wilderness changed.  Again.  That was quick.

So you're the same age you were last time?

[A pause- his handwriting's probably a bit different.]
-Dyad

[wtk_is_wedge]

I think so. [Really he's sixteen and knows it. But what's a year?]]

What about you?

[monodynamist]

Much younger. I may be shorter than you this time.

[wtk_is_wedge]

For once. Sithspawn, everyone who's shorter than me is a girl, not human, or a kid!

[monodynamist]

...I only meant it as a joke. I'm sorry.

[wtk_is_wedge]

Not a big deal.

Usually I don't notice. I'm just - angrier today.

[monodynamist]

Related to the regression, I assume? Still, I'll be sure to watch what I say.

At least you're still in a functional state, though, and it doesn't seem to be lasting too long.

[wtk_is_wedge]

It's like last time. I'm an idiot. I'm constantly angry, sad, thinking about girls - I feel dramatic, like whatever I'm doing is more important. When I make myself slow down and think, I start brooding about being a karking amnesiac!

I really hate being a teenager.

[monodynamist]

Perhaps you just need a distraction, then. I assume the stables are off limits again, for good reason. Do you have any other hobbies?

[wtk_is_wedge]

They are. I've done so little riding this month.

I... not really. Most of what I do in my downtime is flying or friends. I try to keep busy.

There's Syal. But there's a lot of waiting involved there, so not today. There's work, but I've already logged a lot of time dragging things up from the Yard today. There's helping 00 move the garbage trolleys, which I did last time she was too young to push them, but -

Huh. The garbage goes into chutes. Where do the chutes go?

[monodynamist]

I see. I've been spending much of my time with Veda lately- He's become a very small puppy lately, and I'm concerned about him-- not to mention how he's been getting out lately. There are always books to read and the like, too.

The chute? To some sort of processor or incinerator built down into the island, I assume.

[wtk_is_wedge]

Syal doesn't let me get too close yet. I don't think he was effected, though. Maybe none of the wild animals were. But then, I haven't been up there.

I wonder. Maybe if I used the chain...

[monodynamist]

...Please don't break it.

[wtk_is_wedge]

Oh, I won't.

If I don't come back, there's a notebook in [instructions. Which are promptly inked over. Basically, Dyad's told to find the notebook and write a weird coded phrase into his journal.]

It probably doesn't go anywhere, but I'd rather someone knew what happened.

[monodynamist]

Wait, you plan on going in it? Why?

[wtk_is_wedge]

[This is struck out quickly.]

I don't want to get complacent.

I already tried going out through the top, the day after the race. Might as well see if I can get out through the bottom.
