Lotus One

[spandexisyouth]

[The handwriting is a bit messy, likely because it's hurried. Clearly the writer had a bit of energy while they wrote in the journal.]

So I am now writing on paper so that I can talk to everyone! It does not make sense, but if everyone does it there must be a reason why.

I am YOUTH! And I am confused. When is an apple not an apple, and why would someone set a challenge where one must find an apple that is not an apple? Are there teachers that are not teachers that eat apples that are not apples? I will not give up! I will prevail!

ALSO! How does one write with sparkles? I think I would like to use them.

...Even your writing is tiring me out.

I take it you never did find that apple, or whatever.

[spandexisyouth]

You simply are letting tiredness get to you! You must focus on being energetic and you will be!

There is now a drawing of... well, scribbles. And they are declaring it is an apple! But it clearly is not an apple. Apples are apple-shaped!

Hello again Youth, this is Fred.

Your journal entries are as exuberant as your speech. I'm afraid I can't help you with the riddle of the apples; it makes no sense to me, either, but good luck either way.

I have no idea how to use sparkles.

It's refreshing to see someone with so much enthusiasm.

Welcome, Youth. I'm Sky- or Spike, whichever you prefer.

Hi, Youth! I'm Bridge! ^_^

You can find all kinds of glitter in the marketplace~ Colored pens and crayons, too. You just sprinkle it over your writing and it shows up in everyone else's journal.

My, just seeing your writing and enthusiasm makes me feel energetic myself.

Hello, Youth. I am Will.

[spandexisyouth]

Hello again Fred! I hope you are well?

Thank you! I will talk all of the luck I can get for I may need it!

I will find out.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Focusing on being energetic takes too much energy. I'll exercise my laziness for now.

...Right. Did you tell them this?

[spandexisyouth]

Thank you, Sky-Spike! Which would you prefer? It is your name! Or they are your name. Names.

I will try to be refreshing to the best of my ability!

[spandexisyouth]

Hello, Bridge!

...Really? SPLENDID! I WILL GO AT ONCE! AND THEN I CAN SPARKLE!

[spandexisyouth]

I am glad to inspire! But you are not using any exclamation points!

Hello, Will! It is good to meet you!

[spandexisyouth]

Why? It cannot be fun to be lazy and seperate! You must join in!

I have asked. They have not answered yet. But I will not let it delay me!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Why? I'm having plenty of fun.

Of course not. Nothing delays you, hm?

[burnt_orangesky]

Quite well, thank you!

I expect you will, if they continue to speak in riddles and be vague.

[spandexisyouth]

You do not sound like you are.

Sparkles do. I have become sidetracked. But now I know how they work, so I can continue!

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

I am the epitome of enthused.

So you're going to find yourself the means to sparkle? That should be fun for the rest of us.

[spandexisyouth]

I am glad to hear it!

Perhaps I will get a straight answer at some time! Or I will stumble upon the answer myself!

[spandexisyouth]

If epitome is opposite, then yes, you are! There are no exclamation marks.

I hope it will be fun for Wait. You are being sarcastic.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

I'll get you a dictionary when I go to the bookstore, maybe. And I avoid using too much punctuation.

Oh? Is it showing?

[spandexisyouth]

You are going to the Market? We must go together! I must shop as well!

It is not too much. It is just another line! You drew lines last time we wrote!

Yes. It is.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

Uh, no it's not a social outing--more like a get-in/get-out kind of trip.

To avoid unnecessary words.

Oops.

[spandexisyouth]

But that is not as much fun!

The words were needed anyway! You made more work for yourself!

Do not worry! I understand! It is a defensive tactic! You are intimidated by this place and are using it as a shield! But everyone here seems friendly. I do not think you need to use it.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

For who?

So I see. I'll remember that with you from now on.

Oh, yeah, sure. This isn't just how I normally converse, no.

[spandexisyouth]

Would it not be more fun for the both of us? Company is fun!

Excellent! We will remember things and we will talk and write more!

I am not sure if that is sarcasm or not. The writing thing makes this more complicated.

[grab-my-bells.livejournal.com]

I kind of prefer my solitude.

More?

Of course it does.
