{Well, it turns out that Mattie is in the infirmary for sheer idiocy. Did I expect anything else? *huff* Wait. Uh oh. Mattie, You should probably apologize for forgetting Eralonia's name. She's throwing a hissy fit.}

~I am NOT! HMPH! Just because stupid Mattie won't notice me does not mean that I CARE or anything of the sort! It does not matter that I thought she would be impressed by how I can talk and walk and wear clothes and buy expensive things, it does not matter! I-I am not sad!~

{...Eralonia...}

~A-and I am NOT cryi-ing!~ *sniff* *sits down*

{Aww, Eralonia... all you wanted was to be noticed?}

*sniff sniff* ~Y-yes... was it not obvious?~

{You're kinda hard to figure out. C'mon, give me a hug, ya lil' sissy. Why'd you want to impress someone like Mattie, anyway?}

~*sniff* I do not know... she just seems.. compelling, I guess. I want to know her better, maybe, but my attempts to catch her attention were futile. I hope her ego doesn't get any more inflated than it already was.~

{Okay then... why'd you act so hostile to her?}

~Is that not how all humans garner attention?~

{Ah, I see... alright then. So, you did this all for Mattie?}

~Of course not! I did most of it for myself. It feel better to walk around on my hind legs. And this dress is quite comfortable.~

{You're such a drama queen. Maybe you and Mattie WILL get along well. Of course, your friend or not, she'll still irritate you like there's no tomorrow.}

~Ha-ha... I know...~

~Morris?~

{Hm?}

~Can you stop hugging me now? When you are solidified, your underarms smell like B.O. and desperation.~

{ACK! R-really?! Oh, man... I-I'm just gonna stay transparent for the remainder of the night.}

~Hahahaha!~

{Pacifica, oh man. Don't tempt her. She seriously might just enroll. There's only so much I can handle. And-- wait, how DO you talk?!}

~I may or may not have been sneaking sips of your Speech Potion...~

{Wonderful... now I need Staff to supply double doses. Oh, well. I've gotta say, though, you really ARE one in a million. Started off as as housepet, and look at you now.}

~Hee hee! This does feel quite nice, walking on two legs. It is also nice being TALLER. Ooh, I feel powerful!~

{Haha. Anyway, That does sound good, working with S-AL. I'll sign up tomorrow... I'll help restocking books. I told you I do it often, but S-AL usually has it all under control. But, I don't get paid. Just a thing I do. Oh, and Atlantica? Tumbling? Who-ho-hoa, that's going to end in broken glass or broken bones. But I admit, it was pretty funny to see her do a headstand. (Eralonia tried to mimic it, but fell. That was hilarious.) Eralonia also brought out her dolls, all eight of them. One for each of us, I think. Scilph got Poni Poni, I got Dango, Walls got Williams, Pacifica got Ringo, Atlantica got Rosie, Nobody got Deborah, Trash Lord got Leo, and Eralonia held onto Charlotte. Also, sorry she was so strict with them I'm just glad she realized they cost a lot, and made sure no one was too rough with them.}

{Scilph and I love hanging out with all of you. We should really do this more often.}

~I have stolen Morris' Journal. Heheheh.~

~SO, Nobody.. all Claude wants to do is talk about dolls, hmmm? Ask him if they are the dolls from www.Piposshop.com, he will most likely say yes. And walking on hind legs? Hm-hm-hm, doesn't that sound a lot like a certain white omnipotent cat we all know? (I actually am quite tall on my hind legs-- FOUR FEET TALL!) And my BEAUTIFUL dress has arrived... I bought the "Blanc Tulip" dress, and a wonderful silver bow for my left ear! (which I have placed the bell on. I like it, just not on a collar. That is quite demeaning.) Now, THIS gorgeous cream colored-dress is truly my style!~

~He-he-he! I believe that someone has become strikingly idolizing to my name! Ahaha! And Walls, you are forgiven. It is often that people mess up my name. It is pronounced, EER-uh-loh-NEE-uh. Say it with me. EER-uh--~

*Morris takes Journal* {I would like this back, thank you very much.}

~Hey! Give that back. I was in the middle of talking!~

{No Journal time for you. Now I need to find a part time Job to pay this enormous bill. Thanks a lot.}

~Hmph... I am going to ask if I can play three-person chess with Walls and Claude.~

{Ugh. That cat... anyway... Nobody also arrived. That brings it all to... Me, Scilph, Atlantica, Pacifica, Trash Lord, Walls, Nobody, Claude, Eralonia, Blackie... but Mattie is nowhere to be found. we've got out a picnic blanket, and Scilph had the liberty of bringing snacks. Thanks, Scilphy-- er, Scilph! (Augh, nice slip-up, Morris the Moron! Baka ne...)}

{I can't eat, but it's awesome to just hang out with everyone. I think this makes up for us not attending the party... I'm still sticking with the "fashionably late" thing for Mattie. Where IS that chick?}

{What? The meeting is underneath the Willow tree?! Oooohhhh....}

{That explains a lot. C'mon, Walls... let's head out to the Willow Tree. It's weird, because a lot of signs pointed here (big florescent ones with hearts that said "THIS WAY"... hell, they were pointing in a lotta directions.) Let's go out to the tree...}

*A few minutes later*

{We met up with Atlantica and Pacifica (who REALLY looked like she didn't want to be here) and someone else who Atlantica introduced as Trish Larry. He said his name was Trash Lord. That's quite the name. Oh, Scilph also showed up. Looking at her now is making me feel funny. My heart can't beat, so I didn't feel that... I don't have a functioning stomach, so that wasn't doing somersaults... just a strange vibe. Ugh. Makes me shiver.}

{Mattie is not here, still. Hm. I think I should just bring everyone back to the classroom and play board games, mess with the burners, and explode some more beanbags. Now THAT was fun.}

~Ah, and also, people are surprised I am walking on my hind legs now. They are very impressed,~

{Yeah, they should be. It's not every day you see an anthropomorphic cat.}

*click*

{Walls, it's not sarcasm when I say your shirt is cute. Yeah, I seriously do like it, man. Don't tell anyone I said that. I have a rep to uphold. By the way, Eralonia is thrilled that you share the same feelings as her with the video, Trois Petits Chats. I don't know why, but she loves being sad with other people.}

~It gives me a sense of friendship. Walls is truly a good companion. Keep this one, Morris. By the way, you're spelling my name wrong.~

{Eralonia, that's rude. Cut it out. Alright... I'm sure Scilph may turn up, and bring Blackie (With his new Bronze lining) as well. It'll be fun, even more so if Mattie doesn't show up. I'm sure she's trying to be "fashionably late" or something. I don't think we'll ever figure her out. Also, it was fun when we exploded the bean bags. If I could drool when I was laughing, I would have. Even Eralonia seemed to be having some fun.}

~What's that supposed to mean?~

{Uhm... oh, hey. You can walk on your back paws now.}

~Yes, I can! No more four-legs. My hind legs have naturally compressed so I can easily walk on two paws. Now all I need is a nice dress.~

{Good for you. *phew* Anyway, Mattie had better be here soon. All we've done so far is mess with the burners, play board games, and explode beanbags. Actually, It's been pretty fun.}

~But the room feels not AS lively if Mattie were not here. Ah, well. This is nice too.~

{? Eralonia...}

~Yes?~

{Why are there over 1,500 dollars charged to my Creddit Carde?!}

~..Uhm... I maaaaay have order five more dolls from www.Piposshop.com...~

{AUGH! You're killing me even more, Era....}

*click*

{Geez. This place is DESOLATE-- except for me, and Walls. Mattie hasn't SHOWED UP YET. O-kaaay...}

{By the way, Walls seems like a pretty nice guy. We're getting along great. He likes board games and such, and we played checkers a bit (it's the only game I know how to play). He's also got a nice T-shirt. He asked me if it was "cute". That did make me chuckle. Okay, GIGGLE a bit. That doesn't sound manly. Oi.}

{He's great, a real riot. Awesome at games, kinda timid... like Scilph. I'm sure they'd get along as well. Eralonia also tagged along and played backgammon, chess, etc. They tied. At least that's taking her mind off of the video... she's trying to learn how to walk on her hind legs now. She isn't quite anthropomorphic, but she's persistent. I'm sure she'll get the hang of it, maybe start wearing clothes too.}

~Morris, Walls! Looklooklook! I am doing it correctly!~

{Wow, that's impressive. Good job.}

*falls over* ~oof! Soon I will be able to do it correctly. Then you will have to help me take this wretched collar off. I hated this silver bell, and you know that sickly GREEN is not my color!~

{I don't think I will.}

~What?! WHY? It's undignified!~

{You spent SEVEN HUNDRED DOLLARS on CAT DOLLS.}

*gulp*~Point taken... *mumbling* but you didn't even have enough money to buy them clothes...~

{What was that?}

~N-nothing!~

*click*

{Walls, I'll surely attend. It'll be nice to meet you face-to-projection. Ha ha. plus, it'd be nice to get away from the crying cats. I'll be there in ten minutes. When I get there, hopefully Mattie won't use me as a "poster boy" and as a "pleased client". I'm sure she'll make dirty jokes at Scilph and I's expense... Oi. But I'll get there anyway. I need more friends.}

{Eralonia, in her blue funk, has bought three cat dolls from this site: http://piposland.com/index.php These are the dolls the video was based off of. By the way, they are EXPENSIVE. Oh, well. Now by Eralonia's bed are the cats Poni Poni, Rosie (Basic Edition), and Williams (Basic Edition). There goes $700... *sigh*}

{Anyway, I'll be there soon. I'll see ya.}

*click*

{I just read Walls' last post. We truly are so much alike.}

{I don't quite get what it is between transparent beings and alcohol of ANY kind, really. I'm such a lightweight. Three shots of Voddcuh and I'm out. I'm kinda glad I didn't go, I definitely would he been drunk for a long while. And I'm sure we will meet. I'll keep an eye out for someone who looks similar to me. (By the way, Walls, you DOG! Wanting a dance from Miss Nobody. Can't say I blame you, and I'm probably in no position to say that, as I'm kinda infatuated myself. By the way, give up on Mattie. Just, no.)}

{Anyway, I--}

~*LOUD CRYING*~

{?! Eralonia, what the--?!}

~*sniff sniff* TH-THE--THE CAAAAAAATS!! *MORE SOBS*~

{What?}

~TH-TH-THIS VIDEO!! http://listenonrepeat.com/?v=CZsIxEnN0k0#Trois_Petits_Chats_%5B3D_animated_short_film%5D WAAAAAAHHHHH!!!~

{Wow. This IS pretty sad. Uhm.. there, there, Eral-}

~*MORE INTENSE CRYING*~

{This is gonna be awhile. Nobody, If you're reading this, you probably shouldn't show it to Claude. The girl cat looks exactly like Eralonia, and I don't want him or anyone else to get anxious or anything... I'm gonna calm down my cat.}

~WAAAAAAAAA-~

*click*

{Oh.}

{OH.}

{So, that.. that kiss thing... that really happened? That wasn't a hallucination or anything? That wasn't me just thinking crazy?}

{No? Okay.}

{Give me a moment.}

*LOUD EXCITED SCREAMING, WHOOPS AND HOLLERS, LAUGHTER, ETC.*

{Hee hee hee... whoo! Ahahaha~!}

{Okay.. hee hee.. I think I'm done now. That was... WHOO! Quite the rush! Hee hee!}

*ahem* {Anyway... I'm sorry I didn't attend the party. It's a shame, because I wanted to get to know Walls more. I think we have a lot in common. Y'know, we're two guys who technically don't exist... and his projections do look a bit like me. He also seemed to have gotten drunk, just as I did at the Spring Formal. Ha ha ha! I'm sure we'll get along just fine. I look forward to meeting you, Walls!}

{In the diner... man. After seeing that video of Scilph "breaking", I broke. I was weeping and Pacifica and Mattie were trying to calm me down but I just kept moaning "she's gone, she's gone and it's all my fault!" Fortuna was laughing her ass off at that time. She thought it was so funny. That is one sick chick.}

{I'm glad to have everything back to normal. Well... almost. The kiss, two new friends ((three if you count Gretel, but she isn't new. By the way, thank you Walls and Slug Master for coming when you did. I was the only boy in the group until you guys showed up. Now I have some guy friends.)) and just... whoa. Stuff happened. A lot of stuff. I-I'm kinda scraed to go downstairs and see Scilph now. Hahaha.

Wish me luck.

*click*

I told Scilph and the others I would find Nobody. I had a good idea of where she was.

~Goodness. It smells awful in here... But what did I expect of Catacombs?~

Skeletons and bones littered the floor. I carefully stepped over them. This was disgusting. Why would the EBIBs drag her down here...?

Suddenly, she found herself surrounded by the mechanical pests. They hissed and made clicking noises. She slowly backed away... Then started to run. Nobody was close. She could feel it... Water dripped from the celing, and she smelled salt. Eralonia walked over to the scent, and saw..

Claude, with a jar of sprinkles oh his back. ~CLAUDE!~ she ran over to him, her eyes welling up. He grinned slightly. =hey, I toldja I could do this myself.=

~oh, I am so glad you're alright--! I got so scared for you and Nobody-- wait. Where is Nobody?~

The large cat scoffed. =That's what I'm wonderin'.=

~We'll find her. I'm sure,~ she smiled, and wiped away a small tear.
