[ The journal likes to prop itself open without warning, so here's another one of those times featuring Kate, who had been lulled into a nice, deep sleep after the fairy tales ended. No bears here, though. Just a dog barking loudly in her ear.

She jerks awake, knocking some books she had off the bed accidentally. More noise gets the dog barking again and she shushes him, but that's when she notices the length of her hair draped around her neck. Her hair hasn't been this long in some years. ]

What the hell?

That's just about what I ask myself every millicycle.

[nice observation, User]

[gevurah]

[ Of course the journal is open. She picks it up as she gets off the bed. ]

What?

Dictated forever

[mal_addict]

I believe that is called a dog, Kate.

It goes woof woof and has a waggly tail.

[perfectisnteasy]

You don't have issues with your short-term memory, by any chance...?

forever!!

[gevurah]

[ AKLFJSK MAL. ]

Not that, Mal.

[ A groan. ]

What day is it?

[gevurah]

Usually no, but given this place's penchant for tampering with our heads...

[mal_addict]

[Long pause]

Tuesday?

...Why?

[gevurah]

Castle must have knocked me out for a bit. [ But it doesn't feel... like that exactly. The memory is slowly coming back to her. ]

[mal_addict]

...This isn't a going home thing is it? [Her tone is, at least, a little concerned now]

[gevurah]

No, I would remember that.

[ A pause. ]

What's been going on lately?

dictated ♥

[korianders]

I believe that is the sound of a dog barking. [ she laughs softly towards the journal. ]

He seems to want your attention.

forever ;D ♥

[gevurah]

[ Another pause goes here. That voice is Starfire's... isn't it? ]

No, I didn't mean the dog.

Is this Starfire?

[korianders]

Yes. [ thank god another familiar voice, person, maybe. ]

You are [ think of what Stephanie had said about who else was here and all that ] Batwoman, correct?

[perfectisnteasy]

Hm. [he'll accomodate her just this once on those grounds, considering he was just "tampered with" himself]

You said "what the hell".

THIS THREAD IS RETROACTIVELY FILTERED

[gevurah]

I take it you've spoken to the others.

[ A beat. ]

When did you arrive?

[gevurah]

Yeah.

I don't remember growing my hair out. [ Castle why!! ]

[perfectisnteasy]

I thought Users' hair grew slowly. How'd you manage something like that?

[gevurah]

Users? [ That's a very... interesting way of describing humans. ]

It must have been the castle.

[mal_addict]

We were split into pairs and forced to play out Earth fairy tales in order to find our lost 'princesses'. Most of which were men.

It was a very strange week. [Be glad she missed you, Kate, or there would have been mocking]

[gevurah]

Fairy tales. [ Why does that sound so familiar? It's all coming back to her bit by bit.

... Why does she keep thinking of a sick bear? ]

I can imagine. Were you forced into it?

[detectivegenius]

Kate? Everything okay?

[gevurah]

Yeah, I'm fine. [ There's some shuffling noises now. ] Sorry for the ruckus.

[detectivegenius]

It's okay. What's going on?

[gevurah]

Trying to figure that out myself. [ She thinks... she might have been on a loss, but who knows yet. ] My hair's... longer.

[detectivegenius]

... Unnaturally longer or just. A little longer?
