23rd Car - Whispers [Dicated]

[teenagebadboy]

I wonder if there's some lingering effects of the stuff which happened last month. The place seems more spooky than usual.

[He had heard the whispers of the walls. It creped him out but he didn't want to admit that. He didn't want to seem crazy.]

You're hearing it too, then?

[teenagebadboy]

Hearing what?

Re: [ dictated ]

[peacockherald]

Whispers. Conversations, and no one else is there.

[teenagebadboy]

Me too. Wondering if I'm going crazy.

[peacockherald]

I have come to believe no one is actually crazy here. The Castle makes us think it, but we are not.

[teenagebadboy]

I guess you got a point.

[peacockherald]

My way of attempting to retain my sanity, I think - telling myself I am not crazy and I did see all those things or hear those things and others do too. It's the others experiencing the same that helps, you know?

[teenagebadboy]

Yeah I guess. Comforting in a weird way to not be alone.

[peacockherald]

I know the term is "misery loves company", but I prefer to think it is just us all uniting against a common bad experience.

[teenagebadboy]

Yeah, something like that. Not that I'm that bothered. I can deal with it on me own.

[peacockherald]

You should not feel like you have to. We are all here, a community. We should support each other.

I don't need people putting their noses into my business. I'm fine on my own.

I don't know. It's hard to tell, but some of what I hear...it's not all bad stuff.

I have tried to not pay too much attention to whatever it is. I know there's a saying "if these walls could talk" but I didn't think it was possible to take that literally.

I think Paradisa likes to mess with your expectations. Next it will literally rain cats and dogs.
