So, now that things have officially hit the level of unexplainable, I'm sitting here writing in a book filled of other people's handwriting. And pictures. And voices. If what I've been reading is true, then I know there's someone out there who can read this too, and is hopefully above the age of five.

There aren't time markers on anything. Can someone tell me the date? Did I just walk into a daycare? And if I should just declare myself crazy now and avoid the hassle later?

Thanks.

The kid thing's a riot, huh, Sammy?

[Dean's not sure when Sam got here but this is good news. He's better off here than back home on his own facing down an apocalypse. Dean let him down hard when they parted ways in Colorado. Now he had a chance to make up for lost time.]

What room are you in? I'll swing by and pick you up.

...Dean?

[ He doesn't really mean to kick on any sort of phone call to the blank pages of a book, but he'd be damned twice if that voice isn't Dean's. And it makes his stomach drop because the last time he saw Dean, the man was in pieces. ]

--This is a really shitty joke.

Yeah, I agree, but you gotta admit- it's funny. Givin' kids to a bunch of hostages who'd probably choke on their own tongues before they tried for a bun in the oven. It's Trickster brand stuff without the just desserts.

[ He really doesn't sound amused as Dean--Dean's voice does. But he's taking his all in stride and somehow that feels like the last thing Sam can do at the moment.

Sam swallows and his end of the line...the whatever this is, is dead for a moment. ]

...Where are you?

Room 228 on the second floor. You're actin' pretty bitchy, dude, even for you. Guess I'll go ahead and keep the beers cold while I wait up. Judgin' by the tone I bet we'll need 'em.

[ Oh man- what a terrible day to be new to the castle. ]

suddenly I feel like a penpal from the future

[monsterbait]

[ Whoa. This one takes him a few seconds to get used to. It's...cute? At least. ]

I'm not crazy, but a building has lost it's mind. Right.

[ That makes total sense. ]

Stuck? For a little while?

are you my grandson

[nukeoleptic]

[ There's the sound of the pen hitting paper, and then- well, it's a hell of a lot easier to just talk, isn't it? So here she goes. ]

Well. Some people are here for longer than a little while. I've been here about three months! But one of my friends has been here for years. It's sort of a toss-up, and completely arbitrary, as far as I can tell.

i do like the color green

[monsterbait]

[ And then magically he's hearing voices come out of the book. Man. Sam's used to weird, but this isn't his normal area of strange. ]

And here is...a castle. Located...?

The date is May the twenty-first, in the year 2013 by the Paradisa calendar.

[ A straight answer. He can appreciate that a whole lot. ]

Thanks. Is there any known equivalent to other calendars?

written

[courageous_wit]

Based on the seasons, I would say that it's equivalent to the northern hemisphere of planet Earth.

[monsterbait]

But no where near Earth.

You can claim insanity if it makes you feel better. I doubt it would do you much good in the long run, but go ahead and knock yourself out.

[monsterbait]

It really wouldn't be much of a comfort. Just an explanation.

[mal_addict]

Then this would be a very large and very eclectic asylum, with a very broad definition of an 'open door policy'.

[monsterbait]

It sounds like checking is a lot easier than checking out.

[schrodingersghost]

Boy, you picked a fun time to arrive.

[Dictated]

[monsterbait]

Yeah, you're telling me. I wasn't sure if I was having a Chuck E' Cheese nigthmare or not.

Re: [Dictated]

[schrodingersghost]

It'll quiet down in a week or so. Promise. The castle just does this once a year.

[Dictated]

[monsterbait]

Once a year...kids run the place? Why?

[silentrunning]

[OOC: Backdated comment...]

[Chell scrawls a message back.]

No no.This is not a daycare... It's a castle. And today's May 21. I take it you're new here?

[monsterbait]

Is it that obvious?

[silentrunning]

Kind of, yes.

[She scrawls back, drawing a smiley face.]

[monsterbait]

[ Isn't that cute? ]

Are you part of my welcome party?
