Whoever the fuck that is outside, please shut the hell up.
Hint: you're not good at singing.
Also, it is fucking 2am.

Oh for the love of M—

[Senior Ribbongents - added later]

So all of you are probably asleep, but
Just in case I sleep in tomorrow morning/can't be woken up: I'm not actually dead. I was just up late.
I think I may just skip the morning classes altogether.
If anyone could lend me notes from today's lessons, that would be much appreciated.

[...]
Did you all seriously not hear
Does anyone want the unenviable task of talking to the sophs about a locked door policy after curfew?
I don't think the forest entity is limiting itself to just the forest anymore.

???

Everything ok there boss?

he's still distracted/spooked

[jerras]

what?

[...]
oh yeah, just peachy.

How are you still awake?

[get_fucked]

Yeah you seem super peachy

Studying, working on stuff, time slips by yada yada.

So for the love of your M---- what? Curious minds are dying to know what word didn't make it on this page.

[jerras]

For the love of Merlin. I meant Merlin. There was no 'your' in there anywhere. But it was also just an expression.

[cheerpowers]

I swear I'm not over there singing!

[...] Though I'm not THAT bad.

[jerras]

You better not be at this hour.

[...]
Whatever you're imagining it to sound like, this was worse.

[cheerpowers]

Definitely not. And definitely not to randomly sing to Ribbonfin.

[...] What do you think it is? What did it sound like?

[jerras]

Why not? We are a very serenadable house.

[...]
Fingernails against a chalkboard.

Nah. I kid. But it was a pretty close approximation of it.

[orangepip]

Maybe someone was singing in their sleep? I mean, sleepwalking and sleeptalking are things, so why not sleepsinging?

[jerras]

A valid thought.

It was very [...] impassioned for sleepsinging though.

[orangepip]

They could have been practising a promposal! Like when Cameron sang to Vee.

[jerras]

[...]
I got news for the poor sod then. Promposal is definitely going to fail.

Jeremy/Cricket

[chryseis]

[Around 6am]

Get it sorted?

Jeremy/Cricket - half-asleep journalling

[jerras]

Yeah. Not that it had anything to do with me at all. It just... disappeared.

And before you say so: I know I didn't just hallucinate it.

Jeremy/Cricket - very caffeinated journaling!

[chryseis]

What did it sound like? A child? Male or female? Possibly both?

[...]

I'm sorry. Good morning, Jeremy.

Jeremy/Cricket - coffee. Jeremy wants that. So badly.

[jerras]

More female to me. But that was possibly because it was just higher pitched and... sad-sounding. It was just right outside the cabin.

I'm not sure what to make of it.

You are way too chipper for goddamned early o'clock in the morning. But good morning to you too.

[solveforx]

[...] Thanks for the heads up. Won't disturb your beauty rest. I'll have potions notes for you by lunchtime. I didn't hear anything and I'm a real light sleeper

And locking the doors doesn't work, anymore. Our "friend" from the forest has been in our cabin. [...] It left me a gift over spring break, when everything was, like, shut and locked up tight, otherwise.

Ribbongents - later, at not godawful early o'clock

[jerras]

Thanks, Zav. You're the best.

[...]
Fuck. That's disturbing. Still though, in light of recent events, don't you feel like it's escalating? And yes, I'm aware that's a term normally used for a serial killer. But it kind of feels like it that is unfortunately the word that comes to mind.

Ribbongents - later, at not godawful early o'clock

[solveforx]

No problemo, dude.

Escalating. Yeah. We've gone from shit's creepy to shit's crazy dangerous in half a month. Wish there was something we could do. Hate sitting around while this goes on.

[...] Kinda worried about next year, too. Like, Reid's probably still gonna be here another year if the school's even still open. What if it's worse?

[bambae]

lmao

[jerras]

I'm beginning to think that's your answer to everything you either:
a) cannot comprehend
b) cannot say something smart/conducive/useful about

Which is frankly 99% of the time.

[bambae]

Or more logically

It's my response to things that amuse me.

You got a dude singing outside your window. It's not that difficult to comprehend. And I don't need to be useful about it when I can just laugh at you instead.

[sovain]

Sorry, that was my mating call.

[jerras]

That would be most unfortunate.

[sovain]

I like to think if I had a mating call it would bring all the boys and girls to the yard.
