If this is how you handle something that isn't even a threat yet, it's no wonder the Malnosso were able to capture all of you so easily. What good do you think flailing and panicking over the journals is going to do? All you're doing is encouraging these intruders and the Malnosso.

Everyone here really is pathetic.

I was only captured because he doesn't know when to let me be in charge.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

...Let you be...who are you, anyway?

[knightofratatosk]

Why can't anyone around here tell the difference?

You can call me Ratatosk. That's all you need to know about me.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Quite the moody man of mystery, aren't you? I could tell a difference, but knowing you're not Emil didn't tell me who you are. So it was easier to ask.

[knightofratatosk]

Then you're more perceptive than most of the people here-- I don't think some of them have even realized it yet. It makes you wonder if they'll even notice when these intruders break through the barrier.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

We'll all know soon enough if they actually get inside the barrier.

Is that why Emil's let you out now?

[knightofratatosk]

Yeah. He can't fight on his own, so he runs away and lets me do all the work.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Hmmm...maybe he just needs a good nudge to start learning.

You'll take care, right? For the two of you?

[knightofratatosk]

Of course I will. The last thing I need is to get hurt, even if I'm not the one who'll be dealing with it.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Good. And if either of you do get hurt, call for help, okay? I know how to take care of injuries!

[knightofratatosk]

... fine, but only because there's no way in hell I'm going to let someone like him heal me.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Him?

[knightofratatosk]

You know, Richter.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

...You don't like him? That must be awkward. [Knowing that Emil and Richter are in a relationship...]

[knightofratatosk]

Are you kidding me? I'd love to kill that bastard myself.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

[She's curious, buuut guessing that Ratatosk is not the best person to get the story from.] Well then, it's a good thing you've got choices.

[knightofratatosk]

Yeah. If I killed him, I'd never hear the end of it.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

I think it'd be a little worse than that.

[knightofratatosk]

Whatever.

[gardenerofgaia.livejournal.com]

Hmm. Take care, Ratatosk.

[She closes her journal soon after, since she doesn't expect a farewell from him in return.]
