Book 1, Part 8

[truthmeasurer.livejournal.com]

People are still all worked up over babies and dating. No matter what happens, everyone gets all upset and in a tizzy. If it's not one thing it's something else, and then everyone forgets all about being stuck here, and what's on the other side. I still think it could be exactly what they tell us, or people could be lying just to keep us in here. I guess there's only one way that we're going to find out.

Naminé, I heard you have a baby this week. Is it a boy or a girl? I want to know the baby's name, too. School's been pretty boring, so maybe we can find some time to go on a walk. I bet the baby would like to see the trees, I would like to see them again too.

I still en't seen any Spectors. I guess I wouldn't be able to see them anymore, even if I tried. I thought that if they found another way to cut through worlds, that the Spectors would appear again. I've been all around Babylon, and the dome is shut tight to the ground. Pan and I haven't found anything strange, and we've been here for a while. All I know is that they sure want to keep people out.

I haven't been able to find anyone like Dr. Malone who'll tell me about this place. No one seems to know about Dust, either.

I could never choose!!

[truthmeasurer.livejournal.com]

Maybe if you ask, they'll give you one.

[hostbu]

I tried.






they gave me pamphlets on how to get one of my own

[truthmeasurer.livejournal.com]

You're not going to do it?

[hostbu]

It's not that simple, Lyra!

[truthmeasurer.livejournal.com]

It en't complicated either.

[hostbu]

Yes, it is. Love is not simple.

[truthmeasurer.livejournal.com]

Mine was.

[hostbu]

You have a good point.

[truthmeasurer.livejournal.com]

En't that what makes it great? Other people made it complicated.

[hostbu]

I suppose that's always how it goes, no matter what world you're in.

[truthmeasurer.livejournal.com]

You sound like you're in love.

[hostbu]

Do I?

[truthmeasurer.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but you fall in love with a lot of things, don't you?

[hostbu]

ah- Lyra, sometimes I think you're too clever for your own good.

[notwalking]

Get on that, Tamaki.

[hostbu]

Charlie!

[notwalking]

Tamaki!

[hostbu]

That's inappropriate!! I wont have you suggesting such things around Lyra.

[notwalking]

You brought it up.

[hostbu]

That suggestion of yours is what I take issue with. Oh, Charlie, there's a time and place!! I'll have to teach you a sense of propriety too, won't I?

[notwalking]

Hey, why do you think the government's doing this? To show us that the time is now and the place is here. But yeah, propriety, you can try.

[hostbu]

Well, I disagree with the government.

[notwalking]

Big surprise, so do I. I was only having a little fun with you.

[truthmeasurer.livejournal.com]

You don't have to worry about me.

[hostbu]

That's impossible. I care about you, I can't not worry!

[truthmeasurer.livejournal.com]

Not about that. You can worry about other things if you want.
