That's just... creepy. [locked, or so Chelsea THINKS, muahahaha!]

My hospital burned down.

The whole thing. The wards, the records rooms, the therapy areas, everything. Whoosh.

My sister sent me the articles about the fire, and it's freaky as hell. Most people got out, but wow, looks like the girl who probably started the fire didn't. I used to call her "the Fire Girl" when I was there. She scared the hell out of me. I was always afraid she'd do something just like this one night while we were all asleep. Because she wanted to.

What's really weird, though, is I can't find anything in the articles about Sarah. Eve and Sarah were so close they were practically conjoined twins. So how come there's no mention of Sarah now? I'd think if she died with Eve they'd have listed her, and if she survived they'd have mentioned how broken up about it she was.

I don't guess it's really any of my business. It's just weird. I'm glad all of the doctors and nurses and orderlies are okay, and Lucy and Gwen and Alexa and the others. I think I'm glad that a lot of the things in the hospital burned up, though, weird as that sounds. I wonder if the memories are purged from the ashes or if they're still in there.

Anyway, I guess that's all over. I can focus on the here and now, right? I don't know what was going on in the chat room last night. Things were crazy in there, lots of people were angry... and I don't think Ellie likes me. I guess I could ask Jonathan about that at lunch today, but he was pretty upset about all of it so he might not know for sure.

I used to be so good at this social stuff.

Um... I'm just confused is all, sorry.

There are some things I've wanted to ask you since you got here, but they're none of my business so I haven't and I won't. Sorry.

I'm not sure what there is to say about the hospital/fire/etc. stuff, but I will note that while the chat's good for seeing who's new and that sort of thing, it also seems to lend itself to everyone being asses at each other. Don't really get what's up with that, and I'm sure people are plenty nice in person, but you're probably better off just watching it for entertainment rather than attempting to sort out the Deeper Meanings Of The Chat.

Oh wow. Sorry. I didn't mean for you to see that. What are you confused about?

[locked]
You can if you want. It's okay.

There was just a lot of anger and stuff last night. I guess I missed what happened. I do that a lot. Sometimes I go for days without even thinking of checking this thing, or email, or stuff like that. A lot of people I think are cool seemed to be really angry with each other last night, and I couldn't really get an answer as to why or what happened, and I think that people wanted me to take sides. I didn't even know what the sides were.

It's okay. I wasn't sure if I should even comment.

I know you seem to hang out with Jonathan a lot, and given some of the things that have happened lately, um...

Nevermind, sorry. It'd just make things worse. I'm sorry if I came off as mean or bitchy last night in chat or in LJ.

Seriously, you can ask me anything. I just thought the capital letters thing was aimed at me last night. My friends and I always skipped caps when we texted each other, to save time, and I got used to doing that even when I was at a real keyboard. When I came into chat the first time, Stu was one of the people there, and he didn't use caps either, so I figured everybody was used to it and fell back into the habit. I didn't realize it would bother people.

Jonathan and I are friends. What's happened recently? Does it have to do with what everybody was upset about last night? Because I still don't know what's going on.

[puissance-ellie.livejournal.com]

It um, was. If it's because of that, sorry... I thought it was because of another reason since my phone automatically capitalizes stuff like"I" and I shouldn't have assumed everyone was used to that. I shouldn't have let it bother me enough to rant about, sorry.

I don't really know what was going on myself! Jonathan can be... I think I should stop while I'm ahead, and leave it at that. But in answer to your question, yes, stuff happened recently.

[only-straw.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry about what happened in the chat.

It's okay. I used to have a phone that auto-capitalized and that really made me fall out of the habit of even trying to go for the shift key. When I'm writing like this, I remember, but in a chat room it's like I get this blind spot where the shift keys are because I never used to use them. But I'll try to.

He was pretty upset. I guess someone insulted him or something? If you don't want to say, that's okay. I'm just confused about a lot of it but it sounds like last night took you by surprise, too, huh? He's always been really nice to me, but I've had a lot of people tell me they think he's a jerk. I guess I'll just go off of how he treats me.

[psychometric]

It's okay, Jonathan. That room gets crazy a lot of the time, I guess.

[only-straw.livejournal.com]

It really does. I'm glad you showed up online, though, because it's always good to talk to you.

[puissance-ellie.livejournal.com]

Seriously, don't worry about it. I thought that someone was making you do it, or telling you that they wanted you to type like that, and that makes me so angry. It might sound irrational, and I'd explain, but... it's kind of a loaded issue right now.

Or so he might think. There were just... some things that happened last week that uh, are a little sensitive to talk about. I probably shouldn't comment about that, so that sounds like a good plan.
