Well woopty doo another world change.

Another world change that will end up the way it usually does...either with something trying to kill us all or end up being a dull, mundane anti-climax that bores me to tears.

[The world change? Not really a problem for Jim. He just likes to moan.

However this next issue is one that really irritates him..]

As for this "wardrobe" the castle has given me...has it actually seen an issue of GQ or any type of fashion magazine from after 1989?

I don't do retro darlings.

Ah Paris...I've been there before.

Lovely during the springtime, aside from the people of course.

[wishmadeinfire]

It was not so bad, and it was interesting, seeing one of the Earth cities. At least nothing untoward happened while we were there.

... Which is a worry here.

[jimfromit]

Well aren't you a suspicious one?

Mind you rightfully so given the castles reputation.

[wishmadeinfire]

Considering I have been in this place for upwards of three years, my suspicions are no long suspicions but assumptions from far to much experience.

[jimfromit]

After long periods of time the abnormal does become the normal doesn't it?

[wishmadeinfire]

That would be a way of putting it, yes. World changes have become a suspicious annoyance, not something to make the head spin.

[jimfromit]

How refreshing to hear somebody else say that.

[wishmadeinfire]

Glad to be refreshing then, I suppose. I just happen to have run out of surprise for this place's antics.

[jimfromit]

For some of us it happens sooner rather then later.

[wishmadeinfire]

It has a few up its sleeve that still have that power, but... different pony, same trick, I think is a way to put it.

[jimfromit]

Then what keeps you from just going...mad?

[wishmadeinfire]

I have lasted two hundred and seventy-seven years so far of things far more repetitive and scarring. The Castle is... different, but I have things I must accomplish. Going mad is not an option.

[jimfromit]

[It's always an option with this man]

Why let an irritating distraction get in the way of any long term goals eh?

[wishmadeinfire]

Precisely. I find it's the goals that make the annoyances more bearable.
