[imagine i said lavi yanks the blanket off of him.... fortunately he is very sympathetic to everyone who wants privacy even though HE'S NOT GETTING ANY... damn]
That's good. The house feels even more cramped with all of us in there... And it keeps making weird groaning sounds....
Um, novels are my favorites, and sometimes poetry. We're meant to be able to translate books that wash up on the shores from other countries, so I end up reading plenty of things, but... I think I enjoy fiction the most.
Very. The seas around the island are rough, a-and we aren't able to leave... we've only ever had one person from the outside reach us, a long time ago.

Maybe you're the sleep walker then...

Who's Jean?
no subject
there's a brief pause, just momentary.]
Um, he's- he's my family's butler, but he's been... I felt like he's been more like a brother to me.
no subject
[smiles with tears in my eyes]
It's the same with my Gramps -- not my butler, but we're not related either. But he still takes care of me.
no subject

Um, what kind of books...? O-or is it not so literal...

You're into books too, right? What kind?

[LAVI NO.]
We don't actually have a record of what ever happened to him... whether he settled there, or managed to leave, or... if he died to the curse, too.
no subject
[CURSE?]

all he needs is a brief pause to map out the numbers, twenty three minus seventeen is a very simple equation after all?]
...Is it a spell? Or a sickness?
no subject
We don't know. No one has been able to find the cause, before...
