[Voice]Ah, um... hello, everyone! This is Shirley. Er, well... today, I was baking some jam tarts for the house and, well... I got my measurements wrong. To save my dough, I decided to just enlarge the batch and I ended up making much more than what I had originally planned ( Read more... )

[There appears to be a young man, a Ferines in full garb, in your kitchen, Shirley. He's looking around thoughtfully.]

prayingone December 18 2009, 07:32:45 UTC

[... Shirley is not sure what to make of this strange young man. The fact that he's wearing Ferines garb is a little reassuring, but... it's still very surprising.]

U...um...

[And the young man averts his attention to Shirley -- with a smile.]

Hello! Beautiful winter day, isn't it?

prayingone December 18 2009, 07:57:29 UTC

I... I suppose it is...

[It appears by you. OUT OF NOWHERE. You cannot run. You cannot HIDE.

♪~ I always feel like
Somebody's watching me
And I have no privacy
Whooooa, oh-oh ~♪]

[... Shirley's first thought is that someone is spamming the journals with music, but -- no.

It's a little stack of paper with very large googly eyes.]

[♪~ When I'm in the shower
I'm afraid to wash my hair
'Cause I might open my eyes
And find someone standing there
People say I'm crazy
Just a little touched
But maybe showers remind me
Of Psycho too much
That's why ~♪]

[... that's a little creepy. Okay more than a little.]

A... are you trying to tell me something?...

[Hey. Hey Shirl.

Do you feel that?

It's the ocean.

It's in your backyard.]

prayingone December 18 2009, 09:40:37 UTC

[A familiar scent wafts through the open window of Shirley's window. One that she thought she would never encounter in Luceti...

because, dude. It's the ocean.

Yeah, she's dropping her work to check this out. She barely remembers to grab a shawl before heading out outside because she can smell ocean breeze and it's been over half a year since she's seen the ocean and she hasn't had a proper swim since it started getting cold out.]

knownasnessy December 18 2009, 10:04:53 UTC

[Indeed, the fucking ocean is in Shirl's backyard. And you know what? Not only is there no snow near the ocean, it's even mildly warm around it! It's like a beach arrived with it!]

prayingone December 18 2009, 10:12:13 UTC

[Shirley can't help but stare at the space that once was her backyard. This is the ocean. The ocean. The ocean. She can't just walk to its shore -- she runs, barely even noticing the change in temperature.]

The ocean ... [... clearly, there is only one option here. Shirley clasps her hands together and bows her head, opening her mind in the hopes of hearing the voice of the sea.]

[Sup, Shirley. There is a familiar winged woman making her way up the walk.]

... Oh my.

[action] prayingone December 18 2009, 09:57:39 UTC

[Unfortunately, Shirley can't really see the front walk from the kitchen. She's still busy with her tarts.

You have the initiative, Musette. Will you sneak up on Shirley y/y.]

[action] holysovereign December 18 2009, 10:02:35 UTC

[It seems like she'll have to come in to check things out for herself. How very peculiar.]

[action] prayingone December 18 2009, 10:14:31 UTC

[Shirley has taken very good care of your house, Musette! Although it's got a particular Ferines flavor to it, now. See this tag for tl;dr details.]

[This is a strange situation... for someone who was caught up in it a year ago. There's another Shirley wandering around the premises. She hasn't gone inside, because that would be rude, but ... surely the other Shirley will be poking her head out of doors sometime soon.]

[Action] prayingone December 18 2009, 10:46:55 UTC

[And she does, to get a breath of fresh air and escape the trolls who keep showing up in her kitchen.

... seeing herself was not exactly on the itinerary here.]
