Chapter 34. Do I have to fall asleep with roses in my hand?

[The writing is shaky, as though the writer were slightly inebriated, but still recognizable as Rick's.]

Don't mean to add onto everything else, but Nikki's gone.

As in disappeared.

[A clear drop appears on the page. Hmm.

Any characters who come to see Rick in person on the evening/night of the 17th will find him completely shit out of his head drunk and inclined to either not talk or mumble.]

Chapter 30. Barely holdin' on to you

Promise is gone again.

[There's a large tear in the middle of the page, then nothing more.]

Chapter 18. Maybe tomorrow is a better day

If anyone cares, I'm gonna be at the Hatchery for a while. Volunteered for some extra shifts.

No interest in going down to that city.

Chapter 9. War, children, it's just a shout away

[Assume that Derrick's skimmed all the entries he's missed and spotted Genius'. Yes, he has an opinion on what happened in the elevator; no, he's not going to be sharing here. He doesn't quite realize how much time has passed, either.]

Hey, man-twin, why are you bitching that I haven't made you dinner yet? I was only gone for a little bit to get coffee thanks to dreaming about tea with Bernard. Took a bit of a detour in the elevator along the way, but it hasn't been THAT long, has it? Where are you, in fact? I thought you'd be here pining away for me, fork and knife in hand, looking pathetic til you get your supper.

[A pause as he thumbs back through his journal again, finds the last entry he remembers reading, comes back to the current page.]

...how DID all these entries pop up in such a short time period, anyway?

Chapter 4. 25 or 6 to 4

So- a query for the esteemed residents of Edensphere. I hope it makes sense.

Is it normal to see someone or someTHING that reminds you of something, even if you don't know WHAT it reminds you of? I've experienced that sort of feeling recently, and for some reason it's really bothering me. Not even tasting like whipped cream can make up for it.

[[LATE OOC Addendum: Derrick has no idea that he also helped investigate crimes on the side in his pre-ES life, so Stoneface's murder is pinging the shit out of him for that and he has no idea why and it BUGS HIM OKAY. He won't say that directly, though.]]
