[it's taken her months of work... first getting the player, then scrounging around for batteries, and a long fruitless search for CDs in the city. Finally, after a genius piece of advice, she has everything she's been looking for.

Anyone with an open grimoire will get treated to this triumph in the middle of the night, in the form of some very loud... grating... music?]

Goddamn, this is better, isn't it? I've missed this so bad. [she's flipping through most songs before they're even halfway through. She doesn't have the patience to listen to whole songs right now--too wired, too excited with her new toy]

This place needs more music and less... fucked up shit. ...Seriously, what is it with dead people coming back to life around here? Is that the new 'thing' now?

[oh, actually, that gives her an idea. She switches to a new song and rocks out for a minute. Sorry to anyone who might have tried to shut their journal by now but lives on the second floor. She's sitting in the doorway of the room she never uses, CDs scattered all around her, music blasting into the hallway]

I mean, don't get me wrong. It can have its perks... [she gives one of those huhuhu laughs that usually follow dirty inside jokes. Hi, Gabe.] ...But it's mostly just fucking stupid.

...And, speaking of stupid, some bleeding heart should probably come check on the loser in 204. Don't think he wants me as a babysitter.

[ AAA WHY IS THIS HAPPENING ]

Um...excuse me, do you think that could wait until some other time?

[it's happening because it's awesome]

Nope. Can't.

Well, it's just-- late, and some people are probably sleeping and the person you're talking about in 204 is probably still sick so he needs his rest too and, well, it'd be nice of you to stop.

[ He manages most of that in one breath. ]

That's pretty ballsy for someone who just got here, Sheepy.

[...not that she's actually going to stop or anything. And poor room number 204? It's right across the hall from her. Hopefully Adel likes alternative rock]

[ There's something of a choked-off reply to that, before he sighs. ]

Elia. Keeping order was part of my job, back home.

[ Okay, so that's not really true, but he was a member of the group that kept order. ...as a medic. Close enough! ]

Oh yeah? And making sure everybody had fun was my job. Funny how that works.

[--which is, of course, not true at all. But she likes how it sounds]

It might be...ah, better, to make sure everyone has fun in the morning.

Already told you. Can't.

It's now or never.

Wh-- but why?

I'm not around during the day.

Oh, you have a job?

...

[...]

Yes.

Well, you wouldn't like it if we were loud during the day, right? Because of that.

You people are loud during the day. So, I've earned this.

If we're quieter, will you not do this...?

Umm... nope.

Because, you know what-- I know that whatever you guys do is your own business, and if you want to have fun and be loud? Good for you. Rock on. I'm glad someone is enjoying themselves around here.

[said as heartfelt as she can. As if she can hear anything while sleeping in the ground]

I wouldn't want you to be disturbed, though.

I've learned to live with it, roll with the punches, instead of being a whiny bitch about things.

You'd have the right to be unhappy.

[oh... that gets a slightly dark, slightly off-kilter laugh]

Yeah... no.

I'll stick to complaining about real things.

Like what?

[ He doesn't like the idea of bad things to complain about. ]

Oh, you know. Life gets pretty goddamn awful sometimes. And this place isn't exactly a barrel of roses, y'know.

[...is that how that saying goes?]

[ Close enough. ]

You're right, but...I'm sorry if I've ever disturbed you.

[stop being considerate. that's not what you're suppose to do here, sheep-dude]

Ugh, you're missing the point.

Oh. Oh, right. Yes.

Could you please be a bit quieter?
