on the recent journal rename

[charring]

..in retrospect, considering all the shit you put me through in the City and elsewhere, this journal name change isn't that bad.

Now, a couple requests that I'm sure you'll listen to with the utmost respect for me. [Wow, sarcasm!]

One: is it possible for Ed and I to be happy for two minutes without some idiotic curse or one of us dying or whatever? Just two minutes. I'm beginning to think you're why I can't have nice things.

Two: Don't get upset that you can't get ahold of the mun behind my dad. It's not a worry. It means you can't enable them to the City and therefor I won't have to freak out over my dead father suddenly right there.

Thank you for your time. Also, again, thank you for changing my journal name. I didn't much care for one that comes from what Rainbird used to call me in his twisted head.

You didn't see anything.

You're at one of these games?

i saw nothing!

[charring]

I am at one that takes place in a curse-fueled, monster filled pocket dimension that likes to kidnap people at random. It's amazingly frustrating.

I thought not :D

[scaretaker]

That sounds like some real creative writing at work there.

i make that mistake all the time.

[charring]

It is. And sometimes muns contribute curse suggestions that happen. So, it's...creative in general.

It's just upsettomg because during tomorrow's curse or event or whatever, I lose someone important. Not for good, but still.

thank you for making me feel like stupid ♥

[scaretaker]

Now, that'd be real terrible, real terrible to lose someone that's important to you. I can't imagine that kind of pain, really.

ack! sorry! also...ILU for taking on this muse. seriously

[charring]

It's kind of a running theme in my life.

taking him seriously or just taking him at all?

[scaretaker]

Ah.

Maybe you need to take on less "important" people in your life?

picking him up, I meant. so awesome to see and you're doing fabulously.

[charring]

I try to but...shit happens.

thank you! i aim to pick up the book as soon as i can.

[scaretaker]

Yes, shit happens. Maybe that's what life is, just shit happening over and over again.

it's good. all of king's stuff is amazing.

[charring]

I'm starting to think so.

are the ones he wrote while on drugs all the time actually better than the others?

[scaretaker]

That's a real pessimistic way to look at. Sorry about that, I've probably been cooped up too long.

they're all good, imho.

[charring]

Cooped up where?

ahh okay. thanks!

[scaretaker]

A hotel called Overlook. Me and my wife and son are living there to take care of it while it's closed for the winter.

[charring]

That's a long time to be stuck in a hotel. It's just you three?

[scaretaker]

Yep, just us three.

It's not so bad, there's always plenty to do. Got the run of the place, great hedge maze out front, it's real beautiful. Keeping the road to it cleared of snow is not all that economical, though, so they shut it down.

[charring]

Sounds a bit like an adventure, honestly.

[scaretaker]

Yeah! I hope that's what Danny thinks of it, getting the whole place to ride his little bicycle wherever he wants, the kitchens, all of it. He's a young kid, I'm sure he's been exploring.
