2.2 ✞ dictated;

[maybe you remember this guy's voice, eh? cheerful and polite? he was a little... uh, confused over the Christmas vacation -- and while he sounds much the same, he's more sure of himself this time around! (is this a good thing? ...for you?)]

Good afternoon, Paradisa...! It's been a while, hasn't it? Well, I guess... not as long as it had been before, huh?

Um-- it's Father Abel, and I have to offer my sincerest, deepest, and most humblest of apologies for the long radio silence! Things have been a little... strange, since coming back from Paris. I thought it was probably a good idea to get my head in order before saying hello again, but-- well.

~HELLO~! My fairest Paradisians, you have no idea how nice it is to be back and... well, myself again! [that part is half-right, at least, he swears...!! he'll just gloss over the whole, had-a-fake-life thing like a boss.] I never thought I'd say this with such enthusiasm, but... here I am, and it's quite true! I'm very sorry for leaving without much notice, but I suppose the castle doesn't really give warning about these kinds of things, does it? I'm just grateful I was able to come back... exactly how I left. Which is to say, veritably able to recall... everything, from before August of last year. I'm not sure how it... happened, or why, but...

I'm beginning to think ignorance is bliss, at times like these. [no really.]

[...]

And, might I add, while I'm at it... a little note for those of you who saw fit to convince me that the journal was some sort of possessed demonic VOLUME OF DEATH while I was, ah. Aforementioned 'blissfully ignorant?'

[here, my dears, is quite the dramatic pause... before his voice goes lower and takes on a more MENACING TONE.]

I may forgive, but I will not forget. What goes around, COMES around, my friends, and you too shall know what it is to live in incorrigible horror one day. It may not be by my hand... but karma? Has an even longer memory than an elephant, so just watch yourself. Next thing you know, you'll be in a tutu, clucking like a chicken atop the roof and singing the blues to the wind on some horrible loss, alright?! These things ALWAYS happen.

[HUFF. --oh right, moving right along:]

--Ah, and... thank you! To everyone else with moral fiber and a conscience who so kindly attempted to explain that I was not, in fact, stark raving mad and actually... a part of the castle's ministrations. Really... I'm very grateful... It's been a long while since I've been on that end of things, and it's reminded me of how scary it can sometimes be. We should be a little gentler on our newest faces, shouldn't we? Maybe we forget how crazy the prospect of all of this could seem.

--Oh, but -- before I ramble forever... Lilith, Caterina and I will be up-keeping the church again -- it's in the Satis Tower, for those of you who might not be aware -- and, I'm living on the sixth floor with Lilith, now! So you can stop by and say hello if you want, okay? If you forgot, or, if this is the first time you've heard my doubtlessly charming and suave voice over the journals... those doors are always open to anyone at all, so don't hesitate to come any time you'd like. I mean it!

And...

[a little pause, and then something of a contented exhale. his voice is a little softer.]

...It's good to be home.

[and for those of you who feel like catching up -- or just feel like investigating the church, he'll be hanging out in there today cleaning things up and tidying a bit, humming pleasantly. feel free to harass the lanky priest sweepin' a sweep.]

[ooc: open... for ALL THE THINGS over the journal or in the church. oh my god so much tl;dr i am so sorry slkdjgsdf... and a note!!: my apologies to anyone that was still backtagging with me on lj; it's died a horrible death and won't function on my laptop sob. if there's anything you need to sort out, don't hesitate to drop me a line!!]

Mr. Dojima is gone again? [...ugh. that's so... cruel. to bring him here and toss him back again and again... when he has such a young daughter who adores him and needs him to protect her in a place like this. :(]

...Mm, Lilith and I-- ah. That's my wife; she actually introduced us-- would be more than happy to have her. Truth be told... it really isn't the same without her. [misses her bawww]

Do you know where she's been staying since Mr. Dojima left?

She moved back into her room. A friend of her cousin's moved in with her not long after to look after her but that's about it.

[and he should go back to his own room gdit yosuke >(]

There was someone else that left the same time her dad did. Two people I think actually... I've been a little concerned about her since that happened to be honest...

[which he legitimately has! But... well Adachi had his own problems to deal with after Dojima left. ~~also yosuke ughhhhh~~]

[haters gon' hate... or something.

Abel is mulling this over, though. he and Lilith have been truly yearning to get Nanako back with them-- she is the closest to a daughter they'll ever have and they love her to death. if she's up for coming with them, they'd take her in a heartbeat.]

She's been through more than her fair share in this place... mm. I can see why you'd be worried, Mr. Adachi.

Lilith and I will talk to her, for sure.

Yeah, so I've been... [he thinks about the child stealing monster right before he arrived. He thinks about what he heard recently about Souji...] ...hearing.

Thank you.

[Souji :| Slenderman :| :| yes, she had it rough. poor Nanakins.]

When did you arrive, if you don't mind me asking...?

[poor baby ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh ; A;]

Me? Hmm...

Sometime all the way back in March I think.

Oh! So, you're... almost coming up on a year, then! [hm, their paths hadn't crossed through Nanako that whole while? he wonders if there was some kind of falling out? but getting on her bad side seems... not possible :|a]

Oh geez, you're right. Man, that's crazy! It doesn't feel like it's been that long at all.

[HAHA WELL IT CERTAINLY WASN'T BECAUSE OF ANYTHING SUSPICIOUS HAHA... okok]

[you're lucky, Adachi, he has dumb blind faith in everyone from the get-go and wants to believe you're a good guy. also praising Nanako won you points in his book. /naive forever...]

Time has a way of sneaking up on you around here! It really does... and it's a little surprising, considering all it can put you through. Good, and bad.

Yeah, I guess so. Although boy can the bad ever get bad. I remember this one time, I got kidnapped by like, va-

[aaaaaaaaaaand then it suddenly comes back like a bag of bricks]

-Ah!

[s-sorry abel....... ;;]

[kidnapped by--] Va... ahh? [is this a thing. a thing he isn't... up on, because.]

Vam...pires...

[is this really the same guy though he sounds so different ADACHI IS UNSURE... 6__9]

[...vampires? Abel hasn't connected the dots yet -- his time spent on that loss is... well, fuzzy at best right now... but the word 'vampire' is enough to get his attention.]

You were kidnapped by... vampires?

A-Ahh... you know what, it was nothing. N-No big deal or anything.

[sldkjgsdg WHY DO YOU SOUND SO SUSPICIOUSLY PSYCHED OUT SON.]

...Are you alright? You don't have to talk about that kind of thing if you're... ah. If it's a sensitive subject, Mr. Adachi...?

Erm... yeah, that's what it is. That.

Also it's kind of all in the past too right? So who cares!

[probably best if Abel doesn't know, he figures]

[he thinks he's just reassuring himself... alskjg]

...Mm, right. It's in the past!

I'm sorry to hear that you had to go through something like that, in any case. Paradisa can be... downright cruel, sometimes. I'll admit that much.

Yeah... can it ever.

Anyway, it was nice to finally meet you, sir.

--There's no need to be so formal! Really!

Please, call me Abel. From now on, I'd like it if we were friends.

Ah... [THERE'S THAT "F" WORD AGAIN O__O;]

A-Alright, Mr. Abel...

And try not to sound so nervous, would you? Honestly, I don't bite! [...HAHAHA oops]

[URK.]

Ah... haha, I'll try but people have always described me as "mousy" you know...

Ah... well, if it's part of your personality, I couldn't fault you for that! But such a nice man doesn't have a reason to be so timid, Mr. Adachi!
