[The journal gets opened with a little gasp and...hello, Aerith's dripping water on her journal.

She also appears to be on the bank of one of the forest rivers, treading water. This is the kind of stuff that happens when you drop your journal in the river while being pursued by Teases. You have to go find it after it's been carried downstream.]

There you are. And now we're both soaking wet. I won't be writing on this for a while...does talking still work--? Anyone hearing this?

((ooc: Yes, this is my excuse for having Aerith be quiet during the Tease event. She lost her journal and was harassed by Teases for the duration. |D And this is also my declaration of slowatus. I still want to stick around with Aerith and not hiatus her and not be as slow as before, but I've been a little braindead with her in luceti (and distracted by job-hunting) so if responses are slow, then. I apologize beforehand. Hopefully this won't last much longer. Fingers are crossed.))

Dropped your journal in the tub? I've done that a few times...

[Voice]

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

In the tub? Don't tell me you were posting from there.

[Voice]

[markofthewise]

I wouldn't do that!

... I was just listening in, that's all.

[Voice]

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Somehow that doesn't sound much better...Sokka. Just what were you listening in on?

I dropped mine from the bridge.

[Voice]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

Loud and clear, Aerith-chan~!

Lose your journal somewhere?

[Voice]

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Roger that! I lost it off a bridge, actually. It wasn't a very lucky day for me. But now I've got it back.

[Voice]

[oda-hates-me.livejournal.com]

It wasn't a very lucky week for most of us.

But a good thing it still works.

[Voice]

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

That's really true. I should say I'm lucky since I didn't get hurt.

Cross fingers it stops at "unlucky week"?

[Voice]

[nofancydos.livejournal.com]

Heh, shoot, I think that might be better than havin' dripped tha cover an' first few pages with oil.

Did yers come out fine?

[Voice]

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Still soggy. How did you get the oil out of yours? ...Unless you didn't.

[Voice]

[nofancydos.livejournal.com]

Nah, it's got a great big oil stain on it...

Like a lotta my stuff in my workplace. I'm kinda used ta it.

[Voice]

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

You're a mechanic?

[Voice]

[merepuppet.livejournal.com]

Sounds like you should be a little more careful.

[Voice]

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

I'm already careful enough! The journal just took a little trip down the river, nothing's hurt for it. [Good thing she doesn't keep anything else in the journal. :|a]

[Voice]

[merepuppet.livejournal.com]

Just took a little trip down the river. [It probably sounds like he's mocking her, and that's followed with an annoyed huff.]

[Voice] lol heat waves = crankiness.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

[You can has huff back, Kadaj.] I got it back!

[Voice]

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

Oh! Yes, I hear you!

[Voice]

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Thanks, Flonne! I was worried it might not work at all after that swim.

[Voice]

[loveangelflonne.livejournal.com]

Swim? ... You didn't go swimming with it on you, did you?

[Voice]

[knightofratatosk]

Did something happen to your journal, Aerith?

[Voice] ...I typed "butterflies" "busterflies" /blames ff7 forever

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

...Oh, Emil? [A liiiittle surprised it's him and not Ratatosk.]

It fell in the river while I was distracted by those butterflies. But I've got it back now.

[Voice] fffff XD

[knightofratatosk]

The butterflies are all gone now... right?

[Voice]

[lezareno_prez]

I think you'll find these journals are far more durable than the average book.

[Voice]

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Hmmm...I wouldn't be surprised if that was true, but it seems just like average books they're not self-drying. Do you know a good way to dry the pages?

[Voice]

[lezareno_prez]

I don't suppose you would happen to have a hairdryer on hand? Those can be useful for drying things like books.
