Quest 244

[Private || Hackable by Friends]

This Year's Resolutions
1. I resolve to make peace with friends leaving, and learn to remember them without missing them.
2. I resolve to keep being happy and hopeful as best I can, since it's what I know my friends would want.
3. I resolve to make at least one new friend this year!
4. I resolve to try wearing modern clothes at least once a week month.
5. I resolve to keep learning about magic, and to make sure I don't forget everything I've learned already.
6. I resolve to continue beating Cain at things, because it's really quite fun when I do.
7. I resolve to be better about telling people when I need help, even if I feel as though I'm bothering them when I do.
8. I resolve to get enough rest every night, even when it's difficult to sleep.
9. I resolve to beat Edmund in a sparring match. At least once.
10. I resolve to stop fretting about turning twenty this spring, even if it does make me a spinster to do so.

It isn't fair.

[Voice Post]

Would anyone--

[A brief pause; a careful swallow. And then she tries again, her voice more steady than before, but thinner somehow, and a bit too cheerful.]

That is, I was thinking of spending the evening out tonight, if anyone would care to come along? Cain? Neil, Todd? Or Claire, or--it's just, I thought it might be exciting to make a bit of an adventure of it, and try something different, and of course adventures are always more pleasant with company, aren't they? And perhaps we could walk around and find someplace new to visit--a restaurant we've never been to before, or that building with all the lights and colors and games, or something else new and interesting to look at...

[Another pause; she feels as though she's doing terribly at this, but she's already lost out on one resolution after only a week of the new year, and she's loath to break another. So she pushes on.]

I think it'd be lovely to...that is, if it isn't too much bother, I'd like to see you. That's all.

[She's quiet another moment, but she's said what she needs to say, and so she quietly clicks the audio off.]


[OOC: More friends leaving = one sad Rosella. Please try to cheer her up, someone? She's having kind of a rough time of it.]

A lady should never have to ask. It'd be the pleasure of anyone here to take her.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

That's very sweet of you to think so, Tamaki. What sorts of things do you like to do to keep busy, may I ask? I'd be glad for suggestions, if you have any.

[misterblackbird.livejournal.com]

You know you hardly need ask, Rosella.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

It'd be nice to do something different, wouldn't it? Or something new, or...well. Really, it'd just be nice to see you, that's all.

[mumbled_truth]

Of course I'd go, Rosella. I'm sure Neil will, too.

voice;

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Oh, could we, Todd? Please? I'd like it very much, if you're not too busy for it.

voice;

[had_not_lived]

Like Todd said. We'd be happy to come with you.

voice;

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

I'd like it very much if you would. It'd...be quite nice, spending time out with friends and seeing everyone tonight.

hiatus, what hia- [audio]

[windsorknot.livejournal.com]

Something come up?

hiatus? more like hi-arthur <3 [audio]

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Oh, hello, Arthur. Er...pardon? Come up?

audio ][

[adamantined]

What kind of an adventure? Or is the arcade enough of an adventure?

audio ][

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Just something new and different, really. It doesn't have to be anything great or magnificent, just...a bit of a change.

[thenormalsquint]

I was planning on seeing that new club down in the Square tonight. You're welcome to tag along.

audio;

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Is there a new club, Angela? What sort of music does it play?

[synanthrope]

You're going out?

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

I think so, yes. I...er, was planning to have dinner with a friend--oh, but you know Cain, don't you?--and then I think a group of us were all going to go visit the arcade...if you'd like to come along, Miss Saya?

[fatespoken]

I'm not good at group gatherings. But if you're awake in the middle of the night, I'll take a ride with you.

private

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

I'd...I'd like that, very much. I haven't been sleeping well lately, anyway, and a ride might do me some good.

[hatedbyfanboys.livejournal.com]

I'd be up for hanging out.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Would you like to go to the arcade with us, Raiden? A whole great group of us are going to go exploring there, and spend the evening out.

[Charlotte is even more soft-spoken than usual when she chooses to reply to Rosella's message.]

There's a lovely little bookstore that I think is new, though I really wouldn't know. If books are a thing you like, I could give you the directions.

audio }

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

I do like books, very much so. Especially the sort that don't run away when one tries to read them, the way that some at the Library do. And how are you today, Miss Philomena?

[horrible-protag.livejournal.com]

I'd be honored to go with you, Rosella.

Of course, with you, it's always a wonderful adventure.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

Oh, I see. ...Thank you, how very kind of you to say.

[doujin-dork.livejournal.com]

I think that's a good idea. I'll come along, if you don't mind. Or we could do something else too.

[Same filter]

I'm- sorry about all your friends leaving, Miss Rosella.

[primrosella.livejournal.com]

You're quite welcome to, Hiyori. We're all meeting there later this evening, I think.

[Same filter]

It's...quite all right, really. I'll manage.
