[Dairine has been quiet for a while. Lots of friends and acquaintances have gone back home since she’s returned to normal, most in the permanent way. And to make matters worse, a few days ago Dairine's realized that its been over a year since the event that brought her family down to three. Rather than let herself drown in it all, she's been keeping busy, researching new spells and tinkering with a few projects. But she can't ignore the pain forever.

Which is why Dairine sits down this evening with her journal and a pen.]

[ Geoffry Chaucer ]

You, my good sir, are an idiot. A well meaning one, but an idiot nonetheless.

I’m glad that you got to go home. You have a long life ahead of you, one that will lead to fame and glory and much boredom for high school literature students. [She laughs a little.] Kidding, kidding. Still, it wouldn’t do to have you pinning away here forever, would it? And now you can gamble and drink to your hearts content… though I suggest not overdoing it.

Don’t get me wrong – I’ll miss you. But I already knew about you before I met you. And I’ll still remember you when I go back home, even if I lose the memories of our time together.

God, I’ve met a famous writer and the worst part? I won’t even be able to brag to my sister when I get home! How am I going to tell her about the grand adventures of Dairine and Chaucer? Eh... guess I’ll have to hold out. Maybe she’ll come here eventually.

Well, thanks for the letter. It was nice knowing you for as long as I did.

Your good friend,
Dairine Callahan

[ Sam Flynn ]

Next time you visit, we should play more.

Take care!

- Dairine

[ Katniss ]

I’ll keep this short and simple. Even though this place can be terrible at times, I am glad that I met you. You remind me of my sister Nita -- maybe it's your looks? I dunno. But you can always count on me to be a friend and an ally.

Take care of Peeta back home for me. I'll try to do the same here.

Stay strong.

- Dairine C.

[ People who want to protect the castle residents, filtered away from First Gens and those who will use this information for harm ]

How many of you are going on the Lastlook expedition?

More importantly, who is staying behind?

[ Aradia ]

I heard you woke up. Feeling any better?

[Then Dairine pauses, and after much deliberation, starts another filter. This time she writes down her message and leaves no name.]

[ Tony Stark ]

Thanks for taking care of Spot during the family camping trip. I am glad to have him back in one piece.

On another note, you’re musical tastes suck.

((In which Dairine has a gack load of filters))

i did wake up
so yes i am feeling better by certain definitions of the term

[Her voice may sound a little quieter than usual! Since she is, like, super small. There's some glumness in her tone, though.]

I'll be staying here, Dairine.

I will be staying.

As much as I want to go, I'll be staying.

[That's... not quite normal.]

Certain definitions? [Care to elaborate?]

[Oh goodie, writing that Dairine doesn't recognize. Does she know this person?]

Why is that?

I think I would be more useful around here.

Why do you ask though?

im awake but im also like four inches tall
and i cant go beyond the edge of town

I'll be here. Trying to iron out new details for Castle evacuation. [And keeping his mind off Sam's absence as much as he can.]

Oh, that's crummy. Got stuck on a double loss?

Honestly, that doesn't surprise me. Gallivanting out in the wilderness would seem rather beneath your dignity.

[Some light teasing of elf mama and her uber royalness. (Though it's true that she isn't surprised. Really.)]

Edited 2012-08-17 04:07 (UTC)

Would it surprise you, then, to learn that I did travel with a previous expedition?

[Royal she may be, but she's done more than enough traveling in her time. She doesn't object to it, though she is not so fond of it as she once was.]

eeeeyup
and the worst part is its been over a week already and i have shown no signs of growing
if it goes and lasts another week i will be very upset

Really? Which one?

[That would be a yes.]

It was before your arrival, I think. We journeyed to Lente's Point. I would have accompanied another, but the castle saw fit to strike me with a loss at that time.

Huh. Well, not all losses last a week. [See: Dairine's WizPod fiasco.]

Let's just hope it's not one of those month-long changes. Those tend to get tedious really fast.

What was it like? [Curious Dairine is ~~nosy~~ curious.]

...Huh. You're not the first person to tell me they were put on loss during an expedition.

Strange. There were flora and fauna I had never before seen and our hostess was, herself, something of a character. I believe I have my notes still, if you wish to see them.

As for the latter matter, I do not find it wholly surprising. This place has its reasons, of that I am certain.

youre telling me!
id better not have to do anything stupid to end it this time

Like with the robot loss? [She remembers that one. Hard to forget when you blasted a friend through the kitchen wall.]

I doubt that's a common remedy. These losses usually end all at once, no prompting nessessary.

Anyway, I don't think there is a stupid decision that could solve being miniaturized.

[or several friends and several walls 8| ]

on the contrary i can think of several
but theyre all pretty stupid :p

Edited 2012-08-21 04:29 (UTC)

[Dairine laughs.]

Guess I'm just not dumb enough to think of any.

((Liar. You've done lots of stupid things, Dair. Too many.))

I would love to! [Yay, more reading!]

I can think of a few possiblities, most less than good.

[And that makes four! Alan might not be a superhero or knight, but having him around makes her feel better. She can trust him to protect the residents in his own way.]

Got something new for Code Blair?

Of course. I hardly think this place has our best interests at heart.

Shall I bring them to you, or would you prefer to come to me?
