Hey, you okay?

[Private/Unhackable]

[primrosella]

Mm, I'm all right. Just in a thoughtful mood, really.

If you're thinking about love again, I'm going to throw water balloons at you.

[Private/Unhackable]

[primrosella]

...You're not throwing anything at me if I can climb higher than you can throw.

An animal show can be interesting, but it doesn't seem right to keep all those animals locked up like that... let alone people! As usual with the curses, some things just weren't right about it.

... a play, huh.

Rollerblading?

[primrosella]

It was certainly unusual. And a little uncomfortable, too, I think.

Yes, it's Shakespeare. Do you like to act, Rin?

It's rather like ice skating, but with a line of wheels instead of a blade, so you can roll along the ground instead of sliding along ice. Isn't that marvelous?

[revengeisalie]

At the risk of sounding terribly ignorant, I must confess that name doesn't tell me much. And, ah... I've never tried!

... it sounds pretty cool.

[primrosella]

Oh! No, I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking. He's a playwright, and a rather famous one. I read a number of his works when I was growing up in Daventry, and now we're putting on one of them as a show! It should be a lot of fun. Would you like to try? I'm sure we have a part you could play, and most of us have never acted, either.

Oh, it is. It's fun to go fast!

...you have too much to say, for one person.

[primrosella]

...Er. I'm...sorry you think so?

[a_silent_due]

If five people shut up the rest of the day, now that you're done, it'll be balanced.

I wasn't aware that there was a limit on how much a person could write in their own journal. Thank you ever so much for enlightening me.

[misterblackbird]

So you had your fortune told by the mechanical gypsy too, then?

[primrosella]

Mmhmm, I did--as a curiosity, more than anything else. I'd never seen anything like it before.

[misterblackbird]

That's mostly the reason I had mine told too: it was a curiosity and a novelty.

[primrosella]

...And how did yours turn out?

[playstheblues]

I've met Rue. I think it was on a curse day, but we've met.

[primrosella]

Oh, even better. I was talking to her about your competition, but I think she's hesitant about participating because she's such a good dancer already that it'd be unfair to the rest of us.

[playstheblues]

Oh, no, tell her to come! At least she can dance and if she really is that good then she can help me judge.

[primrosella]

I'm sure she'd like that. I'll be sure to let her know the next time I see her.
