DAY 1

I have noticed several of my fellow guests have been having trouble removing their collars. I must make it a point to tell them that it is very easy! All they must do is remove their heads.

TO DO/
find way onto roof
obtain flying deer

What do you need on the roof?

...also that sounds like a good way to end up dead.

OPEN to notebook replies and to in-person comments if someone decides to snoop.

After responding to another entry, Walter had flipped through the mysterious gray notebook. There had been a poem of sorts, and cryptic responses below it. But this... this was different-- and frankly, slightly ludicrous. Even Walter was not so far gone in his horror-filled life that he would forget that beheading was a means of death for those that were truly alive. And even most who weren't.

Shaking his head, Walter poised the pencil to write a response, letters blossoming across the page in a neat, cursive hand.



Dear helpful soul,

The only person I've ever met that could even survive removing their heads is not here.



After a moment, a new line was added below, this time a little more boldly and with a slightly lesser degree of neatness.



On that note, if you should ever see him, let me know and I shall happily demonstrate that for you. I rather feel like taking off his head for the trouble he has caused me.


(( ooc: You can find references for his handwriting here. ))

[BUT THEN!!!]</sub>

Oh my goodness hello! I was not aware that you were alive.

I have been trying to get the lay of the land for months and the best way to do that is to look from the highest point.

[byhiswill]

I am- [The writing cuts off] Yes, I am alive.

Logical. If you manage by chance to find a way to the roof, you will relate that?

[doubledead]

Absolutely! How should I address you?

I am also sorry for dropping you down the stairs earlier.

[byhiswill]

..........

[It's probably not ethical to indulge this, but she is more interested in gaining information than she is in pretending to be a good person]

No harm was done. A personal address is unneeded, how is it that you were able to remove your head without injury?

[doubledead]

I am a skeleton.

[byhiswill]

......what.

[doubledead]

_{[Really bad skeleton drawing. It is smiling.]}

[byhiswill]

[There is a long period of silence where it seems she might have gone to seek other input] I see. That seems like a method unlikely to work for many.

[inquisitora]

[A spiky, slightly looped handwriting.]

Forgive, but you removed your own head? How did you manage thus without swiftly ensuring your own death?

[doubledead]

You never know unless you try!

[byhiswill]

That is a valid point.

[doubledead]

[What's this? This isn't his Notebook Friend. This is different handwriting all together. How strange. Perhaps it is haunted by several souls.]</sub>

I would very much like to meet him!

[doubledead]

I am a skeleton

[There's a pretty long delay before anything is written here, but eventually Nathan decides to bite the bullet and add his own comment. The writing is careful, neat, and as nondescript as possible: he doesn't want to out himself, but the information might be useful.

There is a small arrow pointing from the words 'highest point' to Nathan's comment.]

It's dangerous up there. But you can see off the island at least.

[byhiswill]

You have made it to the roof?

[doubledead]

_{[All these new handwritings! All these spirits in his notebook. All for him yes they are all his friends all for Jack.]}

Are we on an island? How big is it?

[unchainedfromacomet]

[REALLY not sure what to make of head removal...]

Is this a joke?

And those things bite. Just... so you know. Be careful trying to flag one down.

[doubledead]

Not at all!

I have been warned about the deer, but I am not too worried.

[whiteofcrime]

[ Someone had to make the joke. ]

That's exciting but let's not lose our heads over this.

[unchainedfromacomet]

My head doesn't COME off. At least not in any way I'd live through. It's like that for most people.

Hey, as long as you know what to expect... What do you want one for, anyway?

[learnyourplace]

[Her handwriting is elegant, careful and deliberate.]

Removing my collar in that fashion may cause something of a mess. I believe that I will continue to look for some alternative.

Thank you for the advice.

[vipassi]

[...don't let Mukuro realize you think it's a haunted notebook he will troll.]

Floating islands - they fell from the sky once.

[doubledead]

Good one!

_{[Jack no. It wasn't.]}
