Hey, I know you don't have the history with me that I have with you, but I really need to talk and you are the closest thing I have to a friend who knows me here.

This recent Valentines gag of the Castle's has me unsettled. It made me do things.

I practically attacked two guys in the halls, a robot kid and some tall hot guy who....yeah that was...

And I asked Cap on a date. I had no control over it...I just had to do it.

We had a talk, after all that went down with Loki about how it feels to have someone other than you in the drivers seat, this was just like that except it made me want to do it.

I just... I seriously need to talk to you, ok?

I know perhaps you meant this to be to someone private, but, if it makes you feel any better, you are not alone in many of those feelings here at the Castle. Having been here three years myself, I have taken more than enough of these sorts of games.

...what?


Shit, is this another Castle trick?

Re: dictated

[wishmadeinfire]

I am afraid so, yes. It has done this before, though not recently. It does so enjoy making a mess of our lives.

dictated

[well_assembled]

This just isn't even funny.

Re: dictated

[wishmadeinfire]

No, it is not, but then, the belief is the Castle feeds on emotion. Doing this gets it but a small piece it would from something greater.

Feeds on emotion, well it's having a field day with me. First the chocolates and now this, I am moving out of this god forsaken haunted house as soon as I can.

Re: dictated

[wishmadeinfire]

You might try, though moving out does not always mean completely free of its influence.

I'll still take it over being at the mercy of the castle's sick sense of humor.

Re: dictated

[wishmadeinfire]

I wish you luck then.

And for what it is worth, I am sorry ou were put through that.

Re: dictated

[well_assembled]

Sounds like everyone is goign through it, but thanks.

Re: dictated

[wishmadeinfire]

True enough, but it does not make it easier to hear of others sharing the fate. But there is, perhaps, some sense of solidarity in not being alone in the experience either.

dictated

[well_assembled]

I'd rather none of us have to, but at least it's easier to forgive if it's all of us.

Re: dictated

[wishmadeinfire]

Well, I suppose. Some things... are just not forgivable, what it does.

Re: dictated

[well_assembled]

Yeah, that's kinda what has me worried.

Re: dictated

[wishmadeinfire]

I wish I could tell you how to brace yourself for it, but the Castle is unpredictable, so there is no real way to prepare, I am afraid.
