It looks like... this hasn't been a very lucky week. For anyone. [ ... ] No, I guess that's an understatement. The City seems to be crowding more than usual, as well. Does anyone know if that's actually the case?

[ all wryness. ]

I haven't really been keeping track for a pattern, so I thought I'd ask instead.

[Oh look, Alan! Oh... Alan, what are you talking about.]

Er, what brought this on? I haven't moved anything, I don't think. Unless you forgot that I thought you were the one stealing the toasters. It would be pretty special of me if I were actually the dastardly culprit. [Which, by the way, Jamie thinks is still very underhanded.]

[ he's also bumping Jamie's comment up to an enforced filter, too. not a very good one, because he's still getting the hang of computers, but it's better if this is out of the public eye anyway. ]

I meant in general. The carpet. The tissue box. The vase. That sort of thing--just until tomorrow.

[Filters, what are those.]

... We have a vase in the apartment? [This goes to show how much Jamie notices things.]

Did something happen to it?

[ This just goes to show how much Alan trusts Jamie with fragile objects. :( ]

...that did not sound at all ominous. You're improving.

Well--noodles aren't really the stuff of omen-ridden dreams. I'd hope.

Noodles - terrifying food, really. What if one gets lodged in your throat?

Swallowing might help.

Are you talking about something other than that Tower?

veritaphobia March 22 2011, 17:58:44 UTC

A few things. But some of the books at the library have been catching fire.

seesbydoing March 22 2011, 22:51:56 UTC

Just for no reason?

veritaphobia March 22 2011, 23:36:52 UTC

From the sound of it, yes.

[ a wry smile, the sound clear in his voice. ]

Though the tower wasn't exactly good news, either.

Most statements made about this place tend to be understatements.

veritaphobia March 22 2011, 19:15:20 UTC

Well--I'm glad to be fitting in, at least.

adamantined March 22 2011, 19:44:21 UTC

How long have you been here?

veritaphobia March 22 2011, 19:53:01 UTC

A few months. Not long, compared to a lot of people.

What do you mean by "crowding"? I'm one d those that've been trying to keep track for a pattern.

veritaphobia March 22 2011, 19:51:59 UTC

Our building's been sounding more and more crowded--it's been a while since I've heard this many people around. It's on and off, though.

1/2 srsbusinessk March 22 2011, 20:16:45 UTC

I haven't noticed an increase in population though.

srsbusinessk March 22 2011, 20:17:53 UTC

[A thought!]

...Okay, this will sound..really weird, but. [Sigh. All or nothing.] Are you sure what you're hearing is coming from people?
