01 - handwritten and voice

[The page is covered with notes on the roses she has been tending – measurements of growth, records of infections and fungus attacks, times of watering – everything that might be useful to the next generation of plants. Rita reaches over and scrawls the number at the bottom of the page, and then watches in disbelief as half the notes disappear beneath a wall of text.

She reads carefully over as many of the old posts as she can, following the links to the FAQ. As she reads, she mutters out loud to herself.]


This is so weird. It seems so impossible, and yet it’s happening. I’m sure it is happening. I haven’t gone mad, though the world might have. And the roses. How do I explain them? Why do they feel so familiar?

[She realizes that this is being transmitted.]

Well that’s awkward. My apologies to anyone who runs across this. I didn't realize how, ah, flexible the system was. And if you are listening, then I suppose I should say nice to meet you.

I don't think it's a real imposition if it's not like a carfull and the person's not allergic!

Maybe the other you just likes matching flowers to people. Someone with a strong aesthetic sense? These things are always confusing.

What if I said my hair was naturally mostly black and I bleach and dye it, and I've really got to make an appointment soon to get my roots?

lol, good, I was a little afraid you'd offer black and white roses too. :P

Oh, it's very unnerving! I know just one person who doesn't find himself and the person in his memories to feel different at all. That would make things so much easier.

The Apostle seems so coolly focused, not like me at all, but I keep getting pieces of his mind. Guess I'll be more useful if I'm more like him, but... yeesh.

No, no, two colors is good enough for me! And that all is decidedly weird. Hardly the strangest thing going, but worth noting all right.

It seems to be out of my hands. Maybe I'm already not myself. But there are people I care about here. Even if the Apostle wouldn't care, he'd still want to protect them, and be better at it than I am.

((It's a treacherous creature!))

Hmm. I know I'm changing, as a person I mean. I don't think I'd be doing this a few month ago. What's the other me and what's just me, though? Sometimes it's hard to tell.
espigeonage: (💕But we got so far so good)

[personal profile] espigeonage 2013-08-12 02:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Lol, pretty much! I try not to worry about things I can't change or prepare for. There are too many to keep track of, I'd just get overwhelmed!
espigeonage: (💘I'm gone I'm getting out)

Uh, I guess it depends on if things go horribly wrong here or not. I can't say just now. Contact you later? Or if I don't, float them out to sea for me, or something, lol.

[he means if things go badly enough that he gets killed. What a cheerful thought, Jules.]

Thank you kindly, then! It would just be rude to go and fail now.
