riverfox-237.livejournal.com[OOC: I'm gonna post a log/narrative for the second-half of my 'first day' soon explaining what I'm doing, but it's not done being written yet sooo yeah. This is little ol' faun-Me journaling after the fact]
[OOCx2: Also note: time is moving a lot faster in Narnia than outside, and Jenn isn't aware of it yet, so there will probably be some confusion there. Like her thinking four days have already gone by for the rest of ya'll. JSYK]
Hi again, all you people on this weird network...thing. Refugees, I guess you're called? Or we're called? Do I actually count since, I dunno, I guess Refugees is what they call all you world-savers out there who got thrown out of the world when it was taken over by Heartless. That's what these internet articles say, anyways. Please stop bugging me about how I missed the whole invasion thing, it's a bit or a sore spot on my self-esteem right now. Thanks.
But I digress.
Anyhoo...if anyone missed me the first time when I was freaking out, I'm Jenn...I just wound up here in Narnia about, what is it, four days ago now? Dang. Time flies when you're adjusting to being thrown into a magical fantasy world, haha. At least I'm not tripping over my hooves all the time now. And apparantly fauns are super agile and such, which is cool. I made a makeshift skirt, though, because there is something really disconcerting about not wearing pants, no matter what the customs of the species might be. The other fauns around here can think it's funny all they want. Aaand I digress again.
If anyone's interested, I'm doing okay...really missing home, but...well, I met the centaur Glenstorm (I know, Glenstorm, right? Pretty sure this is before Prince Caspian, if anyone's wondering), and, uh...to cut a long story short, he convinced me I should hang out around here and learn some self-defense skills. Apparantly I might actually end up helping you guys with whatever it is you do, and while the very idea scares the ever-living daylights out of me and I'll be oh-so-happy if he's wrong, I figure I can at least take some good advice and learn how to keep myself from getting killed if it does happen. Yay.
Did you know centauresses are really good archers? They are. I'm actually learning archery. I don't even believe it. I finally get to learn archery and it only took getting tossed into Narnia to do it. At least I don't have to pay for the lessons other than helping out with chores and stuff, and even that means I get to learn some cool things about edible plants. There's also this faun named Melchior who's teaching me staff-fighting (thanks for the advice, Ren, I passed on the sword for now). So TWO pretty cool weapons that I've always wondered about learning. I have so many bruises and I almost shot out a beehive at close range yesterday, but progress is progress.
So yeah. I guess that's all there is to say...although, hey, do any of you guys have a magical cell phone or something? Because I do not know my own family's email addresses (agh don't say it) and I would really like to call my parents and let them know I'm alright. Pretty sure they wouldn't believe me, but at least they'd know I'm not dead.
Thanks again to all of you who stopped by my last post to try and calm me down; I really appreciate it. Is everyone else doing okay after this whole...whatever just happened? I'll stop by and journal again when I can, they're keeping me pretty busy.
Take care.
