[ so very dictated, this time without wounds to her pride. ]

It's difficult to imagine that something so beautiful can be capable of something like removing us from our homes and making us suffer losses. The only reassurance I have is that I am not the only one from home here and even then I am not sure I should be thankful for that.

[ The journal picks up the sound of grass crunching under feet as she continues; ]

It would seem I owe some of you an apology. I was told that I have been here before but, no matter how hard I try, I cannot remember anything. I know that it is entirely out of my own hands but, if we were acquainted before, I apologize for not remembering you. With that said, I suppose an introduction is in order. Or, well, a reintroduction.

My name is Elena, of Gawant.

「ａｒｔｈｕｒ & ｇｗａｉｎｅ」

[ scribble, scribble. someone is trying this filtering thing out since all of the cool kids seems to be doing it. ]

Arthur and Gwaine,

It is Elena. Are you both able to read my writing? Someone told me that, should I only want to talk to a single person, I could try this. This is.. quite an interesting castle, isn't it? Once I am settled I was hoping to spend more time in the kitchen, but I also wanted to visit the town.

It's almost refreshing being here now, though I am sure my opinion may change in the future. For now, it is nice not having to worry about duty and obligation.

There's someone else here by that name, actually. [entry right before this, as a matter of fact!]

You know, just in case some kind of confusion happens down the road.

placeholds but... couldn't help myself

[amiable]

Two of them?

ヽ(*´3`*)ﾉ

[squartatore]

Yeah. But they don't sound entirely alike, so maybe they look different too.

（ ´∀｀）

[amiable]

But that would be amazing if it was an alternate universe Elena! [ She's met... so many from the DCU... ]

[squartatore]

I don't know, it sounds awkward. [oblivious to her alternate universe selves and their happy/not-as-happy endings...sob]

Princess Elena | dictated

[impetuous]

[ Laughing at the conversation prior to this. ]

I'm glad you're settling in well.

Gwaine | dictated foreva

[clumsiness]

[ Yeah, she's still trying to wrap her head around that. ]

Admittedly, I'm not sure I will ever settle entirely but having friendly faces here helps.

Even if they think I might be of an alternate universe. [ pfft ]

Princess Elena

[impetuous]

If it's any consolation, I don't.

Gwaine

[clumsiness]

It is, I'm thankful for it.

I have a feeling this place is full of surprises, however.

Princess Elena

[impetuous]

That it is. Just when you think it can't surprise you anymore, it does.

Dictated forever

[whichwayyoulean]

You were here before? I heard most people don't remember being here more than once, guess you've just proved that.

\o

[clumsiness]

It would seem so, though I don't like the idea of having my memories taken away.

[whichwayyoulean]

I don't think anyone would like that. It's weird, someone else I know here left but got her memories back.

I wonder what decides who keeps their memories and who doesn't. It's like some sort of popularity contest.

[clumsiness]

I've never been fond of those.

Maybe it's just a game of chance -- some get them back and others do not. It seems to be a rare occurrence.

[whichwayyoulean]

There has to be more to it than chance, though. It can't just be...random. [Things have to make sense and fit in their little boxes :|]

[dictated]

[whathedoves]

There is pain in beauty sometimes, my dear. Very few roses do not have thorns! How strange to think that we might all just leave and come back again. who knows? The losses may prove to be merciful one day.

Welcome - or welcome back, Miss Elena. I am Yuuya Sakazaki.

[dictated forever! .. omg yuuya]

[clumsiness]

I would like to think so, but I don't think I will hold my breath on it.

Thank you, Yuuya, it's a pleasure to meet you.

he is here to charm you!!

[whathedoves]

Of course not! You might faint or turn blue in the face - not very good for your complexion, mon amie!

All the more room for new memories, yes?

charm away, my dove!

[clumsiness]

[ how literal, she laughs ]

No, not very good at all.

Yes, I think I am looking forward to those memories.

[whathedoves]

I shall be happy to share in some of these new memories with you.

Soon enough, you won't even remember what it is you've lost at all! Mark my words! Out of sight and out of mind.

[Princess Elena;]

[excalibured]

[Oh thank god, that takes care of that explanation]

Yes, I am. And I would prefer you to contact me only in this way, baring any sort of emergency, of course. That is, if you do not wish to meet me in person.

[Prince Arthur;]

[clumsiness]

That will not be a problem.

[ she's probably been filled in on the Morgana deal by now y/n? ]

Though I hope there will not be any emergencies.

[Princess Elena;]

[excalibured]

Thank you.

[Yes, yes she has! Though probably not about some of the other stuff like his dad being dead/his uncle etc. Gotta go slow with this shit]

I do as well, but it's often a vain one. The castle does so enjoy it's excess creations, it's simply only a matter of time.

[A pause] I cannot guarantee she will not decide you are a target. Or that we will not be too far to offer you aid, should you require it. Once we have found somewhere safe, you may join us, if you like.

[Prince Arthur;]

[clumsiness]

[ True dat, true dat. She'll appreciate it in the long run, there are less awkward silences that way. ]

Then that is something I will have to worry about if and only if it happens. I would be miserable if I was always worrying about what-ifs. Well, then! If you wouldn't mind the extra company, then neither would I.

[ Which means sign her up for Team Camelot. ]

[Princess Elena;]

[excalibured]

[It's true. Also he doesn't find the details all that important. if she ever goes home, she'll remember the details through the grapevine. They'll get to it]

While true, that does not excuse anyone from not using caution. And of course we wouldn't. I shall inform you, as soon as we acquire it.

[Fuck yeah Team Camelot is the greatest]
