[There's a lot of frustrated noises coming from the journal today. They start out confused, small, and die down for a second. Then as Merida continues to attempt...whatever she is attempting, they get louder, until she finally bursts out:]

Curse this bloody castle!

[There's a distinct "thud" as she throws something...somewhere.]

Alright then, which one of you [She says this word accusingly as she addresses the journal at large.] in there is going to tell me how to get out of here? I ain't sitting in this stuffy place another night!

Hmmm...I'm pretty sure if people knew the way out, they wouldn't be around to tell it.

dictated;

[righttobeararms]

What? That ain't right. I see people trottin' outside every day!

dictated;

[wilder]

What? Are you talking about getting out of the building?

dictated;

[righttobeararms]

What else would I be talking about???

dictated;

[wilder]

Well, most people usually talk about going home....they can figure out how to leave the building.

[catsong]

Are you stuck somewhere, or did you mean the castle itself?

[righttobeararms]

I can't leave the castle! Something's happened to me, like a--I don't know!

[She's getting a little hysterical.]

[catsong]

H-hey, calm down! It's probably just something the castle did...

Where are you? I'll help?

[righttobeararms]

Right by the door.

[Wow this is kind of embarrassing, maybe she shouldn't have asked for help.]

[yay_heiress]

Another angry voice coming from my journal!

Sorry, but I have nothing to do with it. The castle kidnapped you.

[righttobeararms]

No! That's not what I meant! I'm stuck inside!

[yay_heiress]

You mean, you're trapped? Where?

[righttobeararms]

I dunno if I'd call it trapped, the door is right in front of me and all, but I can't walk through it.

[eep, have a flustered sounding young voice talking back at you]

I-It wasn't anyone here who brought you to the castle...

dictated;

[righttobeararms]

[Oh, someone who sounds younger than her. having raised three younger brothers, she knows she can't get too panicked around this one, so she settles just enough to talk in a level voice.]

I know, lass. I'm talking about going outside the castle.

dictated;

[adorbs]

You can't... leave the castle?

dictated;

[righttobeararms]

No. I ain't quite sure why, neither.

Sounds like someone's grounded.

[And this hawk is amused.]

dictated;

[righttobeararms]

[Merida is, in fact, the opposite of amused.]

Yeah alright, have a good laugh. After you tell me what's going on!

Re: dictated;

[compromisedarrow]

Hey, don't be getting your feathers all ruffled. It's likely no-one here. If this place can mess with memories, it can mess with you leaving.

[righttobeararms]

I don't have feathers.

[Its a petulant reply, but she's in a really bad mood.]

super late...

[dupable]

Out of the castle or out of the world?

rude--no not really

[righttobeararms]

The bloody castle.

I was on vacation!

[dupable]

Well there's a front door.

[righttobeararms]

Thanks laddie, I had no idea.

[Its a dry answer.]
