Personally, I hated it.

[cold_dry_pieces]

No fond childhood memories?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

I wasn't really affected like that.

Had fun reliving yours?

[holymadonna.livejournal.com]

Fond memories of childhood could taste bitter to those who have grown up.

[cold_dry_pieces]

Ah, I see... Didn't enjoy being surrounded by kids, then?

I spent most of the day playing hide and seek... I count that as a win.

[cold_dry_pieces]

Hm, true.

A good argument for never growing up, I think.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Something like that yeah...More like having to deal with a grumpy arse of an old man.

Well good for you.

[cold_dry_pieces]

Well, I am sorry to hear you didn't enjoy it.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Yeah. Who knows maybe I'll get lucky next time and it'll hit me. You know that's a repeat curse.

[cold_dry_pieces]

Someone mentioned that it had happened before, yeah. Were you not affected in the past, too?

I can think of much worse curses to repeat. Provided it stays at that point in my childhood...

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

I was. Twice in fact. Once I actually turned into a teenager, which was interesting and then there was that one time where I thought I was a teenager but still in the same body. That one was very interesting. I thought I had been kidnapped.


Oh me too. Like that Titanic one.

[viridiantwinkle.livejournal.com]

i hAd fUn.

[cold_dry_pieces]

I'm glad! Me too.

[cold_dry_pieces]

Given a choice I'd stick with being five, above revisiting my teen years. Who did you think had kidnapped you?

I don't even want to think about that one, yeah.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Yeah, teenage years are never easy. I was a bit of a rebel. My friend. I thought he had killed my boyfriend and accused him of all sorts of things. Looking back now it was sort of funny.

Yeah, me too...Did you get hit with that weird name one the other day?

[cold_dry_pieces]

I think I did... Had a crown. It was inconvenient, but not awful.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

It was stuck to your head? A friend of mine ended up thinking she was a queen for the entire day.

I got it as well, but I hope that one doesn't repeat. I was so stiff the day after.

[cold_dry_pieces]

Wouldn't come off. Kept banging it on the tops of doorways. And the air smelled like smoke, though I don't know if that was me or someone else in the building...

Stiff?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Ah...That must have been very frustrating but at least you still had your body. Oh you think someone else set something on fire?

Yeah, I was a rose for the entire day.

[cold_dry_pieces]

Around here, one never knows. Someone set something on fire, someone was on fire, someone was a fire? All valid possibilities. It wasn't unpleasant-- kind of a homey smell-- but a little overpowering.

Ah, I see... well, that must have gotten boring quickly. Uh, assuming you were sentient, that is?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see. Yeah...people tend to go a bit crazy with things sometimes.

Yeah, it was rather boring. Probably the most time I've ever been bored in my entire life. It'll be something to tell everyone back home, if I can remember.

Say, don't think I've caught your name?

[cold_dry_pieces]

Rudy Cooper. Beats me how that translates into a crown.

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you're Rose?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

The City's got a weird sense of humor sometimes?

That's a good one. Yeah. Rose Tyler.

So have you been here long, Rudy?

[cold_dry_pieces]

About three months... since April Fool's Day, actually. You?

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Oh...Guess you thought this place was a cruel joke at first yeah?

Since last November.

[cold_dry_pieces]

|[ooc: backdating's great for me >_> wasn't around a computer yesterday, ahah.]|

I thought I was a joke on someone else. It's a bit complicated. Ending up here wasn't so bad though, all things considered.

That's a long while to be stuck here.

[hisplusone.livejournal.com]

Was someone else from your world here when you arrived? That always doesn't make things seem so bad.

Yeah and still no way out. I've heard of people finding a way out only to return again after sometime.

[cold_dry_pieces]

Yeah-- someone I never expected to see again. Hence being stuck here doesn't really bother me much, in some ways.

Evidently, though, I get around... People remember me being here before, but I don't. It's a little disconcerting. That's why we thought it was the City's joke, my showing up..
