Chapter 35. Another blink of an eye, 67 is gone

THAT OLD LADY I'VE CHANGED BODIES WITH BEFORE IS MY MOTHER.

This means that I HAVE SEEN MY MOTHER NAKED.

THERE IS NOT ENOUGH "DO NOT WANT" IN THIS WORLD.

[flenceburgsbest]

Ah.

Thank you for this announcement?

[bloody_pens]

Clearly the world needed to know.

[weaver_girl]

Maybe I'm really missing something here, but aren't you glad you saw your mother? Was it a memory crystal?

[bloody_pens]

Yeah, it was.

I'm glad NOW that I've had hours to feel like a total heel.

[weaver_girl]

It happens, Mr. Castle. I mean, the bit where you first write something and then wish you hadn't. I've done it. Just don't feel too bad, please.

This comment is a blatant lie XD

[bloody_pens]

[Drunk writing.]

Yeah. I'll be fine.

[favorthebold]

You must be a singularly vile man.

[bloody_pens]

[Writing is shaky, but still recognizable as the same person- he's thoroughly drunk now.]

Hey, sometimes good people say vile things.

[favorthebold]

For all the Tree to read?

[bloody_pens]

Yup.

[magical_bosom]

You have seen your mother, when all here have lost their families, and this uncouth sentiment is the first thing you see fit to declare?

[bloody_pens]

[Reply comes several hours later, when he's thoroughly drunk, so his writing is a bit shaky.]

Perhaps waiting to get over the shock before reaching for my journal would have been a wiser move. ... That was inappropriate.

[magical_bosom]

Perhaps indeed.

[A pause.] Pray tell, however, how did you accomplish this? I have not heard of any way that one could recover the things that have been lost.

[bloody_pens]

It happens at random, but sometimes you find crystals that let you experience a memory when you touch them. I found one inside a chocolate egg that appeared on my kitchen counter this morning.

so mature

[man_genius]

...EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

Oh indeed

[bloody_pens]

I just. I don't even know.

/ignoring that shaky handwriting like a good enabler

[man_genius]

Dude that's just wrong! It goes against the Code of Man! The Man Code! Total violation. Stupid Tree.

Oh dear.

[bloody_pens]

Yup.

Still, I've gone about expressing it in the worst possible way.
