You know, nineteen doesn't feel all that different from eighteen... I'm kind of glad my birthday just passed quietly. No point in celebrating when there's not much a difference from one year to the next, right? It's already been over a year since I came here. Wow.

[Chester's on the edge of the forest, bow and arrow in hand as he practices. He looks sad, and his aim is not what it usually is. Sighing faintly, he launches another arrow, then curses when it goes off track. He lets his arm drop then, looking annoyed. Bother away.]

Oh come on! Not this again!

[Female Chester ahoy. >>]

[Chester's out on the steps of his house, re-stringing his bow and doing maintenance on the whole thing. Gotta take care fo your weapons in cold weather, yeah? Feel free to bother him.]

Cless, if you go off on one of your little adventures without me one more time, I'm going to pin you to a tree branch by your cape and let you swing there for a week.

And trust me, I'm serious.

Looks like tonight is going to be really nice. There's a nice breeze and it's clear... I bet you'll be able to see tons of stars in the sky.

Maybe I'll watch them this evening.

You'd think people would stop talking if they were so worried about blabbing, it's really annoying. All they do is whine.

All right... so far I know this ( Read more... )

This had gone beyond humiliating. Stupid bugs...

I'm not even going to comment on the stuffed puppy.

[[By bugs, he means the pixies. >>; Chester's pride is bruised.]]
