73rd Draw; Everything's Gonna be All Right~

[selphie_t]

[Enough! Enough is enough! There's just too much sadness going around Luceti right now and it doesn't seem to be stopping anytime soon. Selphie feels like she has to do something about it. She doesn't trust her voice right now to say much of anything because the loses have gotten to her as well. Instead, she'll take to the paper in a similar way she did for Archie the other day.

First things, a good three-quarters in taken up solely by brightly coloured pictures. Trains, Sailboats, those red velvet cupcakes they have at the bakery, anything and everything that comes to mind. Then, she pulls out a pen and her bubbly looking penmanship flows over the page.]

I know that we've all been through a lot and we have reasons to hate this place but think about it this way. If we hadn't been brought to Luceti, we wouldn't have met each other. We wouldn't have learned the things that we've learned and we never would've known that our spirit can't be broken no matter what they do to us. It might shake us all up and have us wanting to give up but we can't do that.

As long as we're grateful for the friendships we've forged and the things we've all learned from each other, the Malnosso can never break us. So tell me guys, what's something that you've learned from another person while in Luceti that you would have never learned at home? For example, Sanji taught me how to cook and Giles introduced me to Romeo and Juliet.

So come on! Don't be shy!

Sure have.

[And lost about just as many too.]

[lostinmyway]

That's very good. Everyone here is so friendly, aren't they?

[Grune is unfortunately starting to experience the same thing.]

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Well we've got our fair share of grumps about in the village to counteract that so it's a good balance I guess.

[lostinmyway]

Grumps? Oh, my. Aren't they feeling very happy?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Just perpetually grumpy but really nice on the inside.

[lostinmyway]

[A pause. Then:] We should cheer them up!

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

[Likeminded person! Selphie likes you even more now.]

You know... I bet we could arrange that.

[lostinmyway]

Do you think so?

[A kindred spirit! (This will end well.)]

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Think so? I know so! Or... we can try at any rate.

[lostinmyway]

We should try our best!

I wonder who we should help first.

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Hmmmm...

[She takes a few moments to decide on that but she has the perfect person in mind.]

Kain!

[lostinmyway]

Oh, is Kain your friend too?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Mhmm! It took a little bit of work though but it's worth it. I keep trying to make him see things on the brighter side of things but it doesn't always work.

[lostinmyway]

We'll just have to keep trying until he cheers up!

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Yep!

[lostinmyway]

Maybe we should take him on a picnic together. [Standard Grune solution.]

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

We'd have to bring Rydia along too, then.

[lostinmyway]

Rydia? Is she his friend, too?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Rydia's his wife, Grune.

[lostinmyway]

Oh, is she?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Yeppers! They're happily married.

[lostinmyway]

Oh, my, that's so nice. They must love each other very much.

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

They really do. You can just tell.

[lostinmyway]

It's so wonderful when someone loves you a lot, isn't it?

[boomchucka.livejournal.com]

Mmm, it is and it makes missing them that much worse.
