[Shinjiro walks from his closet into the view of the camera carrying what looks like a webcam. He heaves a sigh and tosses the thing on his bed and picks up the device...

...and swears under his breath when he notices it's already on.]

Fine, smartass. You wanna turn on? Tch. Whatever.

[His eyes focus on the feed finally.]

Yuu, thanks. You know why.

[There's another, longer pause.]

So, a lotta people know this place makes you forget stuff, right? What do you guys do to try to remember?

Any of you had better luck findin' stuff to record with?

Nope. Been thinkin' about it, though.

It might be a good idea. I've got one for my time here, and one for important things from home.

[Journals, for Mark, consist of filing cabinets full of typed documents, but the suggestion stands.]

You might want to make duplicates of things, too. In case it gets lost or ruined.

[castoredux.livejournal.com]

That ain't a bad plan. [ He'd probably believe it if he forgot it, but it was in his handwriting. ]

[paper-knight.livejournal.com]

The tough part is figuring out what's missing, if anything's missing.

[He hasn't forgotten anything permanently yet, but even if he had, he wouldn't know.]

Have you been warned about the forest yet?

[castoredux.livejournal.com]

...no. What's up with the forest?

[paper-knight.livejournal.com]

There's something living out there that messes with your memories. Causes blackouts. It's best to avoid it.

[castoredux.livejournal.com]

...causes blackouts and messes with your memories? How so?

[paper-knight.livejournal.com]

It's some kind of paranormal entity. It disrupts memories, causes recording devices to break down. Wonderland's keeping it here just like it's got the rest of us, but it's dangerous. Evil.

[castoredux.livejournal.com]

...no shit? [Well...that sucks in a bad way.]

[paper-knight.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Tough to research, tough to prove, but it's out there.

[castoredux.livejournal.com]

I believe you. [Not that he likes it.]

[paper-knight.livejournal.com]

[Sigh.]

It's the one good thing about this place. People listen.

Good luck with your journal.

[castoredux.livejournal.com]

[Shinji's pretty good at the listening part. Now, doing what he's told or suggested? That's a different story.]

Thanks.
