─ one hundred & thirty-seven

[ friends ]

Are you guys busy on April seventh? It’s a Saturday, and I’m not working... so I was wondering if we could all get together. [ A brief pause. Then pretty sheepishly: ] It’s my birthday on the second and I wanted to celebrate with all my friends! We can have a party in the ballroom since my own apartment is way too small to hold everyone.

I’d really love it if you guys could come. I just want to spend more time having fun and crea–creating happier memories with you all.

If you’re not busy on April seventh, I would be really happy if you came by the ballroom for a birthday party! Your fiancée is also welcome to join. [ In fact, she should really come. ]

Can I ask you something? Nepeta said I should ask you.

[ And today, Uru can be found at the duck pond accompanied by adorable ducks she's feeding, and a certain blue footed pal. Her journal lays open to the side, so it'll be picking up the occasional quacking and what sounds like, "Julian!"

It's been over two weeks since the weird message in her journal, plus that strange feeling that shook her for a bit. She might have been imagining it, but the weird stuff did happen on the leap day...

Hesitantly, she'll start: ]

I guess Julian migrated to wherever the ducks went for the winter. I knew he'd have more fun out here with them then being stuck in my apartment. He looks really healthy, too. I wonder where it is they fly off to. The south?

[ ... ]

Hey... um! At the end of February, the castle's magic acted really strangely, didn't it? It's just... has anyone felt or heard anything weird lately? [ A beat. ] Something creepy, maybe?! Or maybe it was just a cruel prank.

Or I'm imagining it? [ A heavy sigh. That's probably it. ]

[ ooc: open through journal or action at the duck pond. :D ]

Tips?

On how to make friends!

Oh.

Well...not kidnap people might be hard to explain to it.

We can start by asking it nicely...

I suppose so...

[a sigh] We'll think of something to say to it, I'm sure.

I wonder if other people have filtered to it before.

I'm not sure.

If it works...maybe we should ask!

Yeah! And we'll see what things it might have responded to. Maybe there's a... um, pattern?

[ I put on my detective cap and robe... ]

[Ace detectives Uru and Allen are on the case!!]

Mm! There's bound to be some sort of pattern. Or at least...if people have been filtering, it couldn't have been responding to all of them!

If it's only responding to some people... why them? [ Why her? ]

Maybe...because they're nice? I'm afraid I'm not sure.

Midnighter told me the lady who lives at Lente's Point said the castle used to talk to people.

[ A pause. ]

We should ask her, right?

We could...but she doesn't use the journal, so we would have to go out there ourselves to ask.

... How far is it?

A few days journey?

[ A long pause. That is slightly intimidating... ]

The weather's cleared up... maybe we could go.

Eh? You would want to go?

If someone has an answer, we should find out!

Right...

Let me go with you! Please?

[ Surprised!! ]

Eh? Of course you should come, Allen-kun! You've been out there before, so you have experience!

All right, thank you!

When would you like to go? I can see if I can take time off from the clinic.

Hrm... April's going to be busy. Maybe after Clark's wedding?

Um...all right! That would probably be a good time!

I've only been to Mineas Well before, but that was really easy to get to.

Do you know anyone else who would want to come with us, Allen-kun?

Mm, this will take much more traveling. Do you know how to ride a horse?

Maybe Jr. and Ino...I'm not sure who else.
