It never ends.

The house is so quiet. It's not, really, but it feels like that. It's... I miss him so much. No, both of them. Everything's so different now.

I should visit him soon.

[ Filter: Private ]

It's still... I couldn't leave him like that. Not when I know better now. I won't let him die.

They all seem okay.

[ Filter: Private ]

What.

[ Filter: Lindsay ]

I think I'm one of them.

I'm turning old today.

[ Filter: Private ]

You always had too much faith, Isobel. I can't help him. I want to, but I don't even know why he - or maybe I do. Somehow I wasn't surprised. Maybe Lindsay can help him.

Camilla seems fine, but she wants to kill him. I can't allow that.

I painted something today.

[ Filter: Private ]

That lady... she must be gone by now.

I miss her. I don't know what to do.

[ Filter: Camilla ]

Hey, I know this is forward, but can we meet? We can have lunch or something, my treat. I'm not like my brother, I promise. ♥

[ Filter: Private ]

No more dates there, then. I hope think everyone's okay so it doesn't matter.

[ Filter: Lindsay ]

Are you safe?

[ Filter: Private ]

Sorry Viola. You came all the way over here, and I haven't been very lively company. You deserve better.

It's hard to tell, even now. But even if he didn't do it, he doesn't care. That's just as bad.

I should but something but everything looks like

no.

Thanks, Viola. I feel a lot better now, and I really appreciate it~ Is there anything in particular you wanted to see during your time here?

Long time no see.

[ Filter: Viola ]

I say yes.

[ Filter: Private ]

Not so fun, is it, big brother? ♥

[ Filter: Lindsay ]

Hi kiddo. Sorry I've been such a pain lately. You can come home now, if you want? I'm a lot better, and my flu is gone, so don't worry about me giving you the plague. I miss having you around.

[ Filter: Public ]

Thank you for all your help, Nathaniel. I'm sorry you had to see that, but... I appreciate it. I'd like to tell you this in person, but Mum and Dad still have me under house arrest. They wouldn't even let me go to Isobel's services.

The phone just rang but I'm going to pretend it didn't because you're lying. You have to be. Where is she?

This is beyond frustrating. I'm sick of destroying everything I create. If I don't come up with a decent portfolio soon I'm fucked - and not in the good way, I might add.

[Filter: Private]

It didn't look like that. I need to stop being so paranoid.

[Filter: Private]

Of all the things to destroy. I want to wring the fucker's neck with my bare hands.

Oh God. It's going to come here, isn't it?

[Filter: Public]

Not cool. If this is your idea of entertainment, try throwing yourself out of the nearest window. It'll be an exciting new experience for you, I'm sure.

[Filter: Private]

Hahaha~

Oh, family~ I'm still stuck on that Disney night thing, just so you know.

There seems to be a new strange guy in Johannesburg. Hm. I'd kind of like to meet him, because Isobel's taste in company has proved to be quite enjoyable, and I clearly have no life outside of seeing what my siblings are up to. That may or may not have been a subtle hint.

Last night I was in bed, staring in the abyss and trying not to dwell on the fact that I've missed every school deadline this week. Suddenly, all this Apocalypse stuff just started creeping into my head. Funny, I hadn't given it two thoughts before. And now I wondered, why is humanity so important? There had to be a specific reason for why I valued it, and I couldn't put my finger on it. It bugged me.

The family's a bit quirky, to say the least, but I have the basic, mundane teenage existence. Hopefully. Parents are sometimes a pain, but if they weren't I'd be concerned. Isobel and Meredith are old enough to do their own things (and apparently attract neat people); I'm young, so I'm stuck for a couple of more years. Nothing unusual. At least I still have Lindsay. ♥

So, naturally I was all conflicted about these thoughts. Until this afternoon, that is, when I had an epiphany in the form of a very unpleasant discovery. It has since then changed my entire view on life forever.

I realized that I was out of tampons.

Everyone must die.

Well. I met up with Meredith's ex a little while ago. She's funny and cute and sweet and damn was that a surprise. Good taste in women you have, grumpiest brother of mine. And here I thought you were completely asexual. Either that or, you know, GAY IN AN UTTERLY FLAMING SENSE. (Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course.)

Other than that, I'm booooored. But what else is new?

Isobel! What kind of sister are you, running off to stay with some hot chick in Berlin while you leave poor old Alice behind? I hate you. You are dead to me. Forever.

Except not really. I love you and stay safe! ♥

[Filter: Lindsay]

What's wrong?

Hm. What is this? No matter! My name is Alice, and I'm... dateless and bored out of my skull. Not a very good way to start the year, but I have 300 some odd days to make it better. Or worse, but you know~

Do I have brothers and/or a sister on here? Because I'm afraid I don't have the attention span at the moment to sift through a bunch of talk about apocalypse this and end of the world that. You all seem to be a depressing lot.
