[beyondtherift] Locked to Rachel D, Gladys, and all the cats and boys Rachel's fond of.

[Yes, the lock's a bit vague where the gentlemen are concerned. That's okay with us. :)]Everybody okay? We are. We both came through all that crap just fine, and so did our apartment. Our neighborhood's mostly okay

No one feel like you're imposing. We're taking out two more apartments on that floor to house those who might not have anywhere else.

I assure you, mija, that this act is an entirely selfless one.

Re: [locked]

...if you really thought that, honey, you wouldn't feel the need to say so.

What's up?

[locked]

[crimeatthetime]

Nothing.

At the moment.

Is it such a bad thing to like one's privacy?

Re: [locked]

[gotbottle]

It isn't.

...We don't always have to do it in the middle of the living room floor, you know. We can go in the bedroom and close the door.

But if you want privacy that bad I will respect that.

I don't know what's become of Robin but you don't know Robin.

I don't know if Ruvin came back but you don't know her, either.

I don't know why I'm here again.

I'm okay, all things considered. Trying to help out where I can.

Looking for--still looking for people.

I would like to see you, however. Whenever you get the chance. I'd like to stop by and we can drink coffee and just be for a while. I think that's very much in order.

It's so good to hear from you and know you are all right.

[gotbottle]

I'm glad you're okay, too. I'm still looking for people myself--I found a few already either in person or by their journals, so I decided to write to try to catch the rest.

Come over whenever you want. You're always welcome here. I've already mentioned Wes--the scowly bearded dude. Adrian's tall, dark, gorgeous, speaks with a Spanish accent, and is not scowly. Either one of them would be happy to let you in if you drop by. Promise.

[rattle_thecages]

I should probably do the same. It...might have to wait for a day for my journal to reappear.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think I've met Adrian before. I will keep both in mind.

And if you need anything, too, let me know.

Please.

[gotbottle]

They're both good guys. The best.

I will, promise.

See you soon.

I AM capable of hospitality, you know.

Ain't my house, though if someone deserves to get thrown out they get thrown out.

You don't need to be writing like that. It's kinda insulting.

BUT OKAY.

Re: [Locked]

[gotbottle]

I agree with you. If someone deserves to get thrown out they will, and I will so take care of that.

Fine. Sorry I insulted you.

THANK YOU WESLEY

Re: [Locked]

[tempered_scars]

I wasn't doing anything. Guy can't watch television without it being a crime these days. You take care of it. Unless I step in first.

That's fine. It's our thing, apparently.

DO NOT THANK ME RACHEL.

Re: [Locked]

[gotbottle]

That shit you were watching last night, THAT was a crime. Though I guess if I was into girls I could see how that show might appeal.

It is our thing. I guess.

DO NOT TELL ME NOT TO THANK YOU WESLEY IT ONLY MAKES ME WANT TO DO IT MORE AND DRAW HEARTS AND SHIT AROUND IT NEXT TIME

[trivialsublime0]

I went over to the bookstore after I saw you.

Yeah, it's gone.

Real gone.

...I'm sorry.

Re: [locked]

[gotbottle]

It's

You mean

Oh.

Do you know if anyone was in it? I mean, like, did they say?

Re: [locked]

[trivialsublime0]

Yeah. Don't know who or how many but there were people in it when it went down. A lot more than one. A fireball got it. So guess it's hard to really identify everybody and nobody's had time to clear away the wreckage or nothin.

Re: [locked]

[gotbottle]

There were

Oh god

George. The owner. He lived there, in a room on the top floor.

He gave me that job.

Probably some of the other staff were there too if it happened when the place was open.

Shit.
