Making up for lost time. X__X

Jul 26, 2008 19:40

...hn, I'd have never guessed so much time had passed. You'd think a guy could just lose his journal, grab another one from the journal makers and head back home--but no, it didn't work that way ( Read more... )

es: shouldn't have done that..., es: wtf!?!?!?

...

...don't DO that!

shouldve_didnt July 27 2008, 00:13:11 UTC

It felt like 8hrs, I SWEAR. If I'd known any better, I'd have written about it while I was down there.

distant_dragon July 27 2008, 00:23:24 UTC

I'd like to hear about it. You have no idea how bad you scared me!

shouldve_didnt July 27 2008, 00:29:38 UTC

I suppose it might've helped if I'd actually opened the journal at some point while I was down there, but it seemed just like any other work day and looked like some place that could've easily been the wilderness. Others have been down on the fourth floor as well, right? But I believe their experiences were different from mine.

How can you not tell that it has been two weeks? Unless you were asleep the entire time?

shouldve_didnt July 27 2008, 00:27:09 UTC

I have absolutely no idea. I mean, I've heard of this happening to others as well, but nothing really happened down there, and I felt like I was just wandering around in the wilderness again like it wasn't a big deal. And then I came back only to find out that this much time has passed...

itachi_girl July 27 2008, 00:49:28 UTC

I'm glad you're all right but somehow, this disappearing of yours seems ... not very surprising. Almost normal. For you at least.

Sorry, I know that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

shouldve_didnt July 27 2008, 00:51:06 UTC

Then again, Crow just reminded me of something that I should have already known--very little has ever made sense to begin with.

By the way, are you wearing one of those 'suits', or are you just floating around, too?

Two weeks felt like eight hours?

Regardless I am relieved to know you are safe and unharmed, aside from missing time.

shouldve_didnt July 27 2008, 00:31:06 UTC

Yeah, although I'd be rather hard-pressed for an explanation for why.

Thank you--I didn't have any intention of worrying anyone. Something tells me that getting home with a new journal should've been much simpler than that.

moonlit_mirage July 27 2008, 00:35:56 UTC

I believe few things in this place include any reasonable explanation. Why should this?

Honestly I am somewhat relieved for several reasons. I have a friend that has been missing for some time--your odd experience gives me at least some hope that he is undergoing something similar.

shouldve_didnt July 27 2008, 00:47:13 UTC

Point taken. After being here this long, I should've expected the unusual. Nothing's really snuck up on me the way this did.

Ah, perhaps some should form a search party? I wouldn't mind tagging along if anyone wants to search for him.

Good to hear from you, guy. A lot of people have been asking after you lately.

shouldve_didnt July 27 2008, 00:32:12 UTC

Hey there--did you miss me? Maa, I guess it isn't so bad to be popular. Having missed more than two weeks, I'll take that I've missed a lot of things?

felinemystique July 27 2008, 00:42:31 UTC

If I tell you yes, does that mean you'll go away again?

The Wilderness has changed a couple times, gravity decided not to work, new people keep arriving--stuff like that. Business as usual for this place.

shouldve_didnt July 27 2008, 00:50:00 UTC

If I say no, I'd imagine that this place will try to take me away and hide me somewhere again.

Hn, that doesn't sound too bad--the gravity thing is pretty interesting. And these suit things just ground people all over again, eh? Can't hurt to try, I suppose...

I am glad to see you are still alive, though I find your excuse a little hard to believe.

shouldve_didnt July 27 2008, 04:16:27 UTC

Thanks. It really has been a while, that's for sure. Sure, the explanation is rather far-fetched, but there's really no other way to describe it. Supposedly it's not the first instance that someone has lost time by being trapped in the fourth floor, though.

How've you been holding up without gravity?

earth_uninstall July 28 2008, 02:27:14 UTC

Ah, is it? Do you know who else has been to the 4th Floor, and is there a reliable why to get there? It would be interesting to investigate.

I have been well, as for some reason the lack gravity has not been an issue for me. It is familiar, oddly enough. Almost comforting.

shouldve_didnt July 29 2008, 02:24:29 UTC

I don't believe there's a reliable means of getting there. I believe Throne, Bold, Baretta, and Allen (who was once called Snow) had been stuck down there before and had lost one week of their time here for what seemed to be an hour down there.

Hn, so it's something you quickly adapted to, then... Something tells me that I clearly am unfamiliar with it, although it's a new sense of freedom and a chance to test out a few 'skills' of interest.
