Is it a gift, or a curse?

The men in black coats dragged us out to the large church today. Capricorn wanted Mo to read aloud for him; Mo would have refused, but Basta was holding a his precious knife to my neck.

Hearing Mo read aloud was amazing though. He's voice is absolutely perfect. He does it much better than I can.

Mo first read from Treasure Island. It wasn't long

Oh my! At least you're safe!

I take it that Mo has the ability to read things out of books? That's quite interesting.

[read_you_out]

The safest I can be amongst crazy people from a fairytale land who have guns, dogs, and one with a knife who has a particular dislike for me.

Yeah. He's not the only one.

[gen_tle_man]

Well...as long as you believe you're safe...I guess that's fine.

I see. Not the only one? Are you implying that maybe you have the ability also?

[read_you_out]

As long as I'm with Mo, everything is okay.

Well, there is another guy who can do it, but he's not as good. And... yes. I can do it too.

[ihaveasoul]

A boy?

....You okay, Meggie?

Again, this Basta guy? So dead.

[read_you_out]

Yeah. More often than not people come out of the books.

I... I'm alright.

Aw, that's sweet.

[ihaveasoul]

That's....very strange.

Alright, not hurt at all?

Oh trust me, it won't be when I get hold of him.

[read_you_out]

I just kind of think it as our world's magic.

Physically fine!

I meant it's sweet of you to do that. You care so much <3

[friend0ffire]

I'm so sorry, Meggie

[read_you_out]

Your words are really hard to trust right now Dustfinger. No amount of "I'm sorry" is going to make things better.

[friend0ffire]

I'm working on a way to get you out.

[read_you_out]

Don't let Basta or Capricorn know. They'll tear you to pieces.

[tattooedtwin]

I agree with Angel. That Basta guy is dead.

[read_you_out]

I have no problems with the killing of Basta. He's a screwed up man, he is.

[mutely_x]

Are you alright? Are they feeding you? I saw you from the window today but I couldn't get out...

[read_you_out]

I'm okay, they didn't hurt me.
Yes, they're feeding us.

Really? You saw me? I'm so upset I didn't see you! I'll look around next time.

[mutely_x]

Is it enough? I can probably bring you something later tonight.

Don't worry. You shouldn't draw attention. Just wait for Zack.

[read_you_out]

It keeps us alive. You shouldn't do anything to get yourself in trouble.

Waiting is a hard thing to do. Will... will you come with us when we're freed?
