I wonder. How long have some of you been in this place? What are your homes like? Do you miss them?

Comments

Curiosity. Wondering how many of us feel the same way. Wanting to go home, or to break free of our bonds...

[snaky-raven.livejournal.com]

Many most certainly do.

I've yet to meet someone who'd rather stay. Perhaps my keen ears haven't opened up in the right direction just yet.

[11deadlypetals.livejournal.com]

A few seem to have such thoughts, but even they dislike the way things are now.

[Out comes his suave Holier Than Thou tone.] Those who complain more than seek opportunity in change will always find something to dislike.

Although the idea of getting 'spirited away' to one of the floors is a bit concerning... [You'd have to listen carefully to hear actual concern.]

[11deadlypetals.livejournal.com]

Opportunity there may be in change, but creating opportunity of one's own always appealed to me more.

[snaky-raven.livejournal.com]

Oh, I share that sentiment. That approach is often better than the other.

As interesting as it is to be in another world, I find myself more flexible than usual, but lack the numbers.

[11deadlypetals.livejournal.com]

Numbers of what sort?

[snaky-raven.livejournal.com]

The numbers of my kin. My flock. Normally, we ravens work as a unit, to dive down and take what can be ours.

[11deadlypetals.livejournal.com]

I see. There is strength in numbers. Working alone is not nearly so productive in most situations.

[snaky-raven.livejournal.com]

Precisely.

[That pleasantness in his tone starts to die down a little.] By now, someone must have taken my place as leader. I'm certain it's intended to be temporary, as my adviser and the others worry and wonder about why I've disappeared from Kilvas--a small island on the world I come from.

I tried to see if I could establish contact to them with this journal... No such feature exists.

[11deadlypetals.livejournal.com]

No, we are limited only to those who are on this one, it seems. But with luck, you will be able to resume your position once more on your return.

I'm still fairly new to this technology, for it is far complex than anything I know that makes a useful tool.

[Sliding back into that mellow, devil-may-care demeanor] Learning more and more about this world only motivates me to learn a little more, while gathering a few essentials to take home with me... No point in leaving here with talons empty.

A fair enough attitude to have. Payment due for time lost.
