[BBS]

[Because Gakupo semi-accidentally convinced him to, and Marco wrote this TO THE BBS after a long day of studies, club duties, general life duties, and yes, phoenixes DO get tired enough to make mistakes. See? Downsides to keeping diaries on computers. Naughty computers.]

Dear Diary,

This is my third entry and it still seems silly. However, at least I'll be able to track my own memories as much as possible if this place affects things even accidentally. Still a pirate. It's harder than it looks to keep in practice. Somewhat easy since the Garden travels, but that still means sticking to petty things since there's no time to establish anything. Besides, Commodore Ace is as smart as his counterpart, and it's still impossible to say how much of my tricks he knows or remembers.


We were forced to switch partners in Ballroom dancing for the start of the Tango. Grell was not pleased. To put it mildly. Which reminds me I should get her some roses next chance I get. Toby seems to be handling the Self Defense class a little better of late. Hopefully because Espio's been a good influence. Criminal Justice is going over the prison "corrections" system here. It's less drastic than Impel Down, but then, what isn't?

I still remember Pops, Thatch, and all the commanders, even all the men in my division and the captains of Pops' allies. If time really is passing back home, I have no clue what Jozu, Vista, and Izou will be up to. Hopefully they've got enough sense to follow through on the plans and, much as I hate to admit it, ask Shanks as needed. Of course, I still don't summon the GFs often, but as some of the memory alterations might still be from something else entirely, better to keep track.

As always, there seems too much to keep track of in a page, but after finishing D.C. rounds I just want sleep. And I really should get better about giving out those slips, but it's just too much paperwork. I'll leave it to Ryoji and Sokka.

It's September 16th, but still seems to feel like Summer. Maybe that's normal for this world. I should look up more on the weather patterns next time I have free time in the library. If that ever happens.

Darling, what are you doing?

And yes, I was not pleased at all. AT. ALL.

[fierybluebird]

What? Sleeping.

Not pleased about what now?

[redcinemareel]

Do you sleep in front of the computer?

You may not realize it, but I, and...possibly everyone in the Garden, can see your diary. [That possibly answers Marco's question.]

I'd like a dozen roses, by the way. ♥

1/2 [Yes he types ".........." and no he won't stop]

[fierybluebird]

No I was just finishing up work and...

...........

[fierybluebird]

The hell?

What did I?

Aw damn it.

Uh... all right... yeah. Sure sweetie.

[redcinemareel]

Oh, there there, my dearest. It's not the end of the world....unfortunately.

I'm counting on you! ♥

[fierybluebird]

Luckily I didn't say too much that's private this time.

Heh. Even though it's lost the surprise?

[redcinemareel]

This time.

I'm an actress. I'll pretend.

[fierybluebird]

I think I'll stick to notebooks from now on.

Hah. You're beautiful kitten.

[turnip-rage.livejournal.com]

If I were you, I'd try a notebook next time.

[fierybluebird]

So it would seem.

And here I was just telling someone that. That's what I get for thinking I could write it at the same time as homework.

[xiiicard.livejournal.com]

If you're tired, maybe you should take a break. I don't mind covering for you if you need to rest.

[fierybluebird]

Uh... Thanks... but what?

[xiiicard.livejournal.com]

Uh... You made left a message about being tired Marco. After doing rounds and with everything else you do as well.

[fierybluebird]

What?

I didn't mean to.

I'm fine, eh. Just tired for the night I guess.

[xiiicard.livejournal.com]

You might not have meant to, but it did happen.

Like I said, if you're tired let me know and I can take over for you.

[fierybluebird]

So it seems.

I think I finished up most of the duties. But feel free to start taking some rounds, someone has to. Think you've got a good idea what's allowed or not?

[xiiicard.livejournal.com]

Sure! And I have a pretty good idea of what would be considered rule breaking. Basically it's things I would have to think twice about doing or getting away with.

[bratbeyond.livejournal.com]

... When'd the BBS become a blogging website?

[fierybluebird]

It wasn't on purpose. I've just been keeping a file on my personal computer and thought I put it there.

I hate computers. Sticking to notebooks from now on.

[bratbeyond.livejournal.com]

Probably a good idea. Pen and paper's so old-fashioned, but it keeps things safe.

[fierybluebird]

Yeah. I was thinking of trying to improve my typing speed with the practice and that way I could do homework at the same time.

[bratbeyond.livejournal.com]

Your world doesn't have computers?

[fierybluebird]

Well, the government does, they'd be a little too much to try carrying around on ships and everything else though. And we don't have a BBS network. We have den den mushis.

[bratbeyond.livejournal.com]

Oh. Wait... you travel on ships? Aren't airplanes easier? And what're den den mushis? [sorry, Marco: little kids're very curious.]
