There's tons to talk about, isn't there?  Curses, the Time Bomb concert--which was pretty great, by the way, and anyone who missed it should definitely go next time Curt puts on something like that--but there's something else that's been hitting a lot of people hard.

People keep leaving.

I know, not a new and exciting thing, but it never gets easier

audio; not to worry <3

You know what else loves company? Not-misery.

Not-misery's doing just fine. In fact, not-misery doesn't mind closets. It can wait until misery calms down.

[Someone has a sneaking suspicion that she's the inspiration for at least part of this.]

They do say it's better to have loved and lost than never loved at all. And I suppose the same is true for friends.

[horrible_penny]

[Someone would be right.]

I definitely think so. I mean, plenty of people could argue against it, but I love all the friends I've made... even the ones I might not see again.

[primrosella]

I feel the same way. As hard as it is to let go of them...at least we had the chance to meet them at all. That's what really matters.

[horrible_penny]

Which doesn't make it hurt less when they do leave, but maybe it makes it easier to keep going.

It's weird, knowing it could all go away in a moment. I've been lucky so far, though.

[horrible_penny]

It's not completely different from most places, though... one accident and wham, there goes everything.

But I hope you'll stay lucky.

[shiverandsing]

Yeah, guess so.

Look, If you're not busy counseling the city at large I think I'll stop by, just to say hey and stuff.

[ooc: Congratulations, Penny, you've managed to make Curt worried about you.]

[horrible_penny]

I'm not busy at all right now. Come on by!

[ooc: What, how does this even--]

[worksmart]

You're not bad, at the talking thing.

[horrible_penny]

Thanks, Chase. The City gives plenty of opportunities to practice.

[horrible_penny]

I'm glad it's not as incoherent and rambly as it feels, then. Thank you--

I'm so sorry, but I'm drawing a total blank on your name. Have we met before?

[horrible_penny]

It really is nice to hear. City optimists unite?

I'm Penny. It's great to meet you, Euphie.
