[You know, there's a lot of things Shaun could say, but for once, he's going to go with a very succinct, slightly clipped--]

Does this place ever become anything even slightly resembling normal? You know, just a bit more sane than fairy tales and sentient marshmallows?

Really, my most incoherent nightmares are less insane than this. Some time away from the weirdness, that would be absolutely wonderful.

[assassino]

Were you stuck being a princess, then?

[He's joking. Sort of.]

[thehistorian]

Thank whatever God there might be, no, I was spared any lacy unmentionables or binding corssets.

[assassino]

What are you complaining about, then? You could have sat back and watched.

[thehistorian]

That doesn't make it any less insane!

[chancing]

There are moments of normalcy, but I would not expect the weirdness to come to an end any time soon.

[thehistorian]

That's... a damn tragedy, really. Well. I suppose there's no harm in hoping, maybe with a healthy bit of denial.

[chancing]

You will need a very healthy helping of denial to convince yourself that these things will come to an end. If the past few times have been anything to go by, the next one will most likely be happening very soon.

[thehistorian]

God, we don't even get a decent break between the insanity?

[heloise]

[ Marsh Mallows sound like some monster. ]

I hope the marshmallows didn't harm you.

[thehistorian]

No, no, they just-- were ... marshmallowy. At a distance. I did my best to avoid them, to be honest.

[heloise]

That is good. Were they fearsome?

[thehistorian]

Well, as fearsome as... small, baby chicken shaped sweets can be.

[ino]

[ ... oh, boy. this guy is DEFINITELY new. trying not to laugh ...]

You could always go camping in the forest. That would be sort of normal.

[thehistorian]

Camping? Camping. No, definitely not; I'll take the oddities this place presents before I'll take bugs, foraging for my own food and dealing with the elements.

[ino]

Seriously? It's not even that bad. There aren't any bugs, and if you go in the summer the weather's just fine. Plus, if you stay close enough to the castle, you can just grab food from the kitchen and bring it back with you.

[thehistorian]

But what if it rains? Not to mention, sleeping on the ground sounds quite uncomfortable. [he's kind of a prissy wuss.]

[hellshaped]

That's normal for some people.

[thehistorian]

...Fairy tales and sentient marshmallows?

[hellshaped]

Well, maybe not marshmallows.

[iamdamnloyal]

There was Los Angeles once and I heard another time it was New York. Oh! We spent Christmas in Paris.

[thehistorian]

I've heard about Paris. Los Angeles and New York are new-- doesn't this place ever go anywhere good?

[iamdamnloyal]

Those aren't good? What would be good?
