+Editor's note+There is a break here because all the subjects were too stressed this week to do much writing in their journals. Also because a new page of comic is being worked on and plots musn't be given away. Sorry.

+Charlotte+Weekend! I'm so glad, after that terribly homework-y week, it's over! Oh joy! Now I get to... I dunno, sit around and be bored for two days. Which is better than sitting around and being stressed for five days.

+Marfius+OBSERVATIONS for NOVEMBER 26, 2003
I'm feeling a little better. There is a holiday approaching, Thanksgiving. From what I gather it is a feast day where turkeys are killed and eaten because farmers can no longer care for them. Something like that. I'm taking some aspirin and going back to sleep now.

+Kevin+Can you take me higher?
To the place where blind men see?
Can you take me higher?
To the place with golden streets?
I'm glad we have a break from school, it's been getting a bit heavy around here with everyone being so antsy about homework and stuff. After I got home I went to Marfius' place, since he hasn't been to school in a while. I figured he must be sick or something so Gordon and I made him brownies. The poor guy's all beat up, it's sad. I offered him Gordon for a while but he just kept staring at me as if I were an alien or something. Maybe it was the shoelaces? Someone noticed?
Wow, last time I wrote in here I was at the doctor's. I got cut off because he came in and called me. As usual they took lots of samples and I just kept quiet like I always do, even though he's not here to tell me to keep quiet. It's a habit now, I guess. The bright side to doctor's tests: there's really no way you can fail them. You just are what you are, you know?

+Charlotte+I'm so glad this is the last day of school for a while! I'm going insane back here. I know I shouldn't, but I sit in the back of the classroom in all my classes, so sometimes I can't see what the teacher's saying and have to copy it off Marfius. But Marfius hasn't been to school in a while so I have to get them from someone else. Perhaps David, if I weren't such a coward. Yess, go ask him for your notes, then ask him to tolo My stupid mind playing havoc with my emotions and nerves and junk. But YAY! No school!
+Andrea+all my plans went right down the drain. were going to my aunts house in new mexico, leaving tonight. all of us, even mona. so i guess theyll all just have to have a good weekend. this sucks majorly.
+David+The paper came out today, it looks great, I almost can't believe we pulled it off. By we I mean Willheim and I, of course. Pfft, like the rest of the staff cares. But it's good, happily! And now we get Thanksgiving break. Whoo!
+Marfius+OBSERVATIONS for NOVEMBER 25, 2003
No observations for 23 and 24, I didn't go to school after the scene with Andrea and Mona. Until I can see from both eyes I will not be observing correctly, I don't want any misobservations because of this. Kevin dropped by to check on me. I don't know how he knew I needed to be checked on, but he did, and he brought some brownies he and his duck made. I suppose I observed those two pretty well. It was weird to see Kevin not "bouncing off the walls" (being hyperactive) though he still had his duck, Gordon, with him. He couldn't stay too long but the brownies were good. When I anwered the door, he look at me as if he understood what had happened. Odd.

+Charlotte+I've packed myself an emergency bag in case Mona comes around. I know that once she figures out where I live there will be no stopping her. Perhaps I should warn Lucy?
Sunday, November 23, 2003
+Nick+ Wow, this weekend kicked ass. Charlotte's party was way more fun than I thought it would be. We played hide-n-go-seek. That was GREAT. Then it got better. I stumbled across Angel in one of her hiding places. So I hid with her. *smiles* I never knew how much fun kissing was... She's really good at it, I guess, I've personally never tried it before, well, like that. Anyways, it is something I'll have to find more time for in the future... Ok, well, I'm beat. Talk more later.
+Tom+ Well, it's safe to say this weekend was much better than last weekend. I felt really stupid when Nick called me because David had called him, because apparently while I was drunk I called David at 2 in the morning. That's another thing, you can never remember what you did. Oh well, live learn, and then move on. Thanksgiving is coming... I can't wait. I get to go home for it. I am going with Nick to Angel's family's. I look forward to it. Well, that's all for tonight.
+Angel+ Man what a weekend. I'm so tired, but sort of excited because we only have two days of school this week! Yay. More time with Nick! We had a great time playing hide-and-seek at the party. I felt like a little kid again, except when Nick kissed me. Then I felt like I died and went to Heaven. Oh, and I found out from Nick that Tom is coming to Thanksgiving with Nick. *in a sarcastic tone* great. Oh well, I'll get over it... Well, I'm going to keep it short, I'm wiped out. Talk more this week though... Later!
+Kevin+Father of mine, tell me where have you been?
I just close my eyes, and the world disappears.
Father of mine, take me back to the day,
When I was still your golden boy,
Back before you went insane.
Waiting in hospital waiting rooms gives me far too much time to think. Some little kid "borrowed" Gordon for a while so I have no one to talk to, so I'll write in my journal, like I am now.
Anyway, I got to thinking about hospital waiting rooms and how they suck and are boring but full of the feeling of people that have been there before. I always wonder if I'm sitting where someone else sat before they died. Who would want to spend so much time in a place where everyone is sick or hurt or dying? Isn't that just making it easier for Death to find us? Shouldn't we split up? Triangulate? (Equilateral or iscoceles?)
Yeah, so Maggie's having her checkup right now. I forgot to mention her, if she were here I would have someone to talk to. Maggie's not afraid of the doctor like I am, since she was small when all... yeah. Did I say afraid? I meant

+Charlotte+What a surprise! Apparently Angel DIDN'T forget my birthday after all. I don't think I give her enough credit, now that I think about it. It was really fun until they turned off the lights and started a game of Hide and Seek. I'm bad at that game but I managed to not lose or be "it" too many times.
Do you ever get that funny feeling like you're being watched?

+Kevin+I am hanging on every word you say,
And even if you don't want to speak tonight,
That's alright, Alright with me,
'Cause I want nothing more than
to sit outside heaven's door,
and listen to you breathing,
It's where I want to be.
I am soo tired. I was tired yesterday, too. Fell asleep in most of my classes. Weird, I'm not usually this tired. Couldn't go to Angel's party, so I sent my present for Charlotte along with Nick. My mom says I have a bit of a fever, too, which sucks. She wants to take me to the hospital this weekend. I don't see why, I have an appointment next week anyway. We can wait until then, right? Maggie has an appointment that day, too, it'd be easier to just take one trip next week than one this weekend and another next week.
I don't like the doctor's. Spent too much time there with broken limbs and huge bruises when I was smaller. Mom is too overprotective. I guess I'm kind of grateful for that, otherwise I probably wouldn't be here anymore. But she doesn't have to do this anymore, he's gone, and he's not coming back. Besides, I have Gordon. Gordon'll look out for me.

+Marfius+OBSERVATIONS for NOVEMBER 22, 2003
I didn't realize this before, but I live really close to Angel's house! I could hear the party all the way from my room, so I snuck out and observed a little through the windows. It looked to me as if everyone was having fun. They played a game in the dark in which everyone hides and one person has to go around and find them. David was there, he was pretty good at finding people. Charlotte was not good at hiding nor finding, I have noticed that she is not good at doing things in the dark, I expect she has been hiding something from us, better than she hid in Angel's closet.
I would have observed more but I found I was not alone in my observing. I found Andrea. She was not hiding inside, she was hiding in the bushes under a window. She found me, though I was not playing. We then found a quiet, dark place and she found ways to hurt me. I found she has a friend that looks a lot like her. Mona, I think. Yes, they must be related, they were both good at hurting me. I think I will hide from them from now on.

+Angel+The party was a hit! Yay! Charlotte showed up a few minutes late, which gave us time to hide and coordinate our surprise. She was surprised! The last guest just left a little while ago, it was David, he had to wait for his parents to come get him because he's not allowed to drive after 10:00. We went apple-bobbing and played hide-n-go-seek-in-the-dark (not to self: Charlotte sucks at that game) And everything went off smooth as silk. Nick had a great time, too. Apparently Charlotte thought our anniversary party was on Tuesday. I don't understand how she came to that conclusion. Oh well.
One odd thing: While we were playing hide-n-seek, I swear I heard something out in the yard during the party, and when I went out there to see if someone was hiding out there (it was outta bounds), there was nothing. But the window was fogged up out there as if someone had been looking in. Creepy.
