I was taking Arthur through patrol in the wharf district, and I swear we saw Lenore. Only she looked ...
I don't know. She didn't look her herself. She seemed so slow and dreamy and her cheeks were all flushed, and even though I stopped and called her name, it was as if she didn't even see me. And her eyes -- they were glazed like she was dead, and her pupils were just tiny little dots ...
She was smiling, though. I ... that's good, right?
-- it was just ... unsettling. She was like a ghost.
Maybe it wasn't her after all ...

The worst thing that can happen is ... is something that's better off happening anyway, if it's possible to happen at all.

Er, so, I know that you're busy today running patrol outside the city for Prince Finlay,but I was hoping we could if you have time, I'd like to -- uh, actually, how is that going?

I've been meaning to ask you ... are you bored out of your mind yet? Alone in that big house all day, coming home to not have Demi's cooking streaming out of the kitchen ...
I was supposed to be keeping you entertained, wasn't I? Haha, I'm not doing a very good job.

Sep. 4th, 2012 02:15 pmDragons, how did I ever get to be twenty-three years old?
I was fifteen when I was sent on that mission to escort Princess Kelita. Sometimes I think about that and I'm just -- how did I ever get that charge? I had just enlisted. -- Er, well, I know how. My father pulled the strings, hoping to jump start my military career, and ... well, I suppose he did.
I guess this is why other countries make fun of our
... still, I didn't feel young, at the time. And now, I don't feel old. Should I? How old do you have to be before you start to feel old?

But first -- did you try talking to Mianne yet?

Jun. 23rd, 2012 10:11 pmIt seems like Ian was given an out of town assignment for this next week ... he's not looking forward to telling Clarissa about it. He says that sometimes she acts like she's still worried he's going to leave her again, and this isn't going to help.
And ... it seems cruel, doesn't it? Sending a newly married man apart from his wife like this? With a baby, too. Whether Eona is his daughter or not, Ian loves her like she is. I can't help but wonder if my father is somehow involved in this. A lot of his old contacts in the military are still a little too eager to listen to what the old man has to say, and ...
It sounds like the sort of thing he'd do, with the way he's been acting lately.
I wish I could do something about this, but it's out of my jurisdiction.
Hah. And I'm still not really sure how to -- Ian confiding in me? Our parents acting this way? It feels like I woke up backwards one morning and can't get it all to go back where it's supposed to be.

... well, I guess now all we can do is wait and hope. Ian seemed like he had a lot on his mind when I drove him back home, but he didn't want to talk. He went in his room and closed the door, and he hasn't wanted to come out ...
I don't know if that's a good thing, or not ... but I suspect we're going to know very soon.
