It picked you up and caught you.

[shrugs]

People get stuck here in numerous ways. I walked into my music room and ended up here.

[torpid.livejournal.com]

Coincidence.

[about music, at least.]

Is there a point here? Can I go home?

[clavichordly.livejournal.com]

Yeah.

I don't understand why it does this either. And as for now, there's no way out.

[murmurs to himself, head turned down.]

Okay, no more questions, no worries, it's destination unknown.

[then he looks up, hopping off.]

Alright.

[clavichordly.livejournal.com]

Well at least you aren't freaking like the rest of the new idiots.

[torpid.livejournal.com]

I have no reason to. It's not like it'll do any good.

[clavichordly.livejournal.com]

I felt much the same. It's not so bad here as long as you avoid the crazies. A bit boring though.

[torpid.livejournal.com]

Crazies?

[clavichordly.livejournal.com]

Cannibals, murderers, sex crazed idiots. Those kind.

And I thought the city was screwed up.

How can I tell before it's too late?

[clavichordly.livejournal.com]

Sometimes you can't. [shrugs]

But as time passes, you get to see people here interact. And then you can just tell.

[torpid.livejournal.com]

Guess I'll stick back to people watching, then. I make a good hood ornament, anyways.

[clavichordly.livejournal.com]

Smart.

[for now he'll just practice then, a few simple tunes across the keys after opening the top.]
