[Accidental video:]
[It shows Karyou sitting in a kneeling position in what appears to be a clear blue sky, and... from the journal's point of view, that seems to really be it. There is ground beneath her, but it appears to stop just a few meters from where she's sitting, and beyond that there's nothing but sky. Not even a bird is visible.]
[Karyou is staring out into it. Every now and then she turns around to look in the other direction, although you can't see what's there from the way the journal is facing. She doesn't say anything, but her expression is very clear to see - it's not necessarily sad, but subdued, and she's frowning slightly as if concentrating.]
[Then, there's a chirrup as the nightgale comes into view, going to land on Karyou's outstretched finger. She speaks softly to it, stroking its feathers:]
It's beautiful, isn't it? Just like we imagined. Though, I'm sorry... I guess this world can't bring them here.
[[ooc: Look who finally dared to have a look at the new islands! The island with the building that shows you your home world, to be exact. As the building only allows one person inside at a time, her escort would have to wait outside, alas, but she'll be done soon.]] |

I also apologise for talking about this again, but... [No matter how many times she said "thank you" she doesn't feel like it's enough. And her clan would have rewarded such assistance much, much more.] I've been trying to think of something I could do in return, but there isn't much I can do, so:
My lord Yama, Mister Kamui, Mister Takeshi. If you wish, please name a time and I promise I'll sing for you. I know it's nowhere near enough, but I hope it'd be enjoyable. [Her sister wouldn't disapprove of her singing for humans for this cause, right? She hopes so, at least.]
Oh, and there's another thing. If it's at all possible, I'd like to try to learn at least a little of the arts of healing. If there's even a small chance that I could be of some use if something like that ever [...] in the future, I'd like to try my hardest. If anyone would be so kind as to tell me how I could learn, I'll pay what I can for the trouble. |

[The audio function kicks in as Karyou holds her bird close to her face, speaking quietly:] At least I know for sure that... no matter what, she is free. Right?
[The nightingale coos softly.] |

[In somewhat loopy handwriting:]
Um, I just wanted to say... thank you very much for the dress, lady seamstress! I really like it. Eheh, and it looks funny! Which is good, because I wanted it to look very, you know... ah, regal! Not for my sake, but because sister would want it for me. So, yes, thank you! Ah, I should show it to you...
[Here she fumbles with the journal for a bit before she manages to turn the video function on:]
[We see Karyou, wearing the dress Hokuto made for her (which I'm not sure exactly what it looks like. Robin says it's modest for Hokuto but still pretty special by normal standards. I say it's a good kind of special though, which more or the less fits the royal image Karyou wanted. All princessy! In a special way)]
[She's kind of unsteady on her feet, and twirls once to show it off. She even manages to keep her balance.]
This is how it looks on! Thank you! [/third time she says it] |

[So she can't hack some of the videos, and frankly she doesn't really want to, but what she has seen freaks her out.]
I-is it happening again? People dying? Lords of this world, please-- everyone's worried about the ones in pain. Please don't make people suffer! [teardrops on the page]
Sister, if you were here...
[[Um, she doesn't think of filtering it. If you don't want your character to know such gory details, this is a small entry that's easy to accidentally look over?]] |

[Accidental audio:]
Almost six months... Time moves so fast here, although sometimes it seems like ages. Sister, I never thought I'd be apart from you for so long, in a world that isn't that place. But please don't worry... I'll be alright.
[she softly starts to hum the song she sang for Karura-ou as a Christmas present] |

I... I'm very sorry to bother, but would anyone--
[swallows thickly] I hate to have to say this, but... Everyone who knew Chise: she's gone home. Plum can't find her, and neither can the nightingale. I'm relieved for her sake. However... Sayak Princ is there anyone who wouldn't mind if I were to stay with them? I don't know how I'd stay on my own.
I need to get used to this... I'm not supposed to be able to see any of those people for a long time yet.
Sister...

[The video feature shows Karyou, sitting with her legs folded under her body, working on a piece of clothes with a needle and thread. She's humming softly to herself. Enter the nightingale.]
Welcome back. Did you have a nice flight?
[The nightingale chirrups, and goes to land in Karyou's outstretched hand. Karyou listens to her chirping.]
Oh, really? You saw her on your way? That's good; I'm almost done with this. [^v^] Ah, but I'll need to write to---
O-oh. Oh dear, it was already recording. I'm sorry, everyone! [///] But then, since people can already see this... Princess Sakura, Umi, Yuui-sensei, Prince Ashura? I guess you must already have guessed, but Chise and I... we'll be alright. [&hearts] We're staying here together, so please don't worry. |

[Accidental audio:]
I'm still not really sure... but since sister isn't here, I have to try to do what I think is the best thing to do, right? I'm sure it'd be easier for both Princess Tomoyo and Chise if I'd go with them. [soft cooing] You really think so? I'd be very happy, if she'd think that... I just hope she wouldn't disapprove terribly.
[the nightingale chirrups again] A-ah, yes... [her voice is suddenly more sad:] I guess I do need to start thinking as if she won't return.
[/audio:]
[not realising that little talk recorded, she writes:]
Excuse me, teachers at the school? Would it be okay for me to start attending school again? |

[Jan. 16th, 2010|10:45 pm] |
[Accidental audio:] ---ey're really sure? [a chirp] I see. Please tell them thank you very much from me. And thank you, too. [more chirping] No... you were really helpful. B-but I guess there's nothing either of us could do now. It's all the power of the lords of this world.
[sounds of a little girl sobbing] Sister...
[a soft, musical chirrup] I'm sorry, nightingale... You must miss Garuda a lot, too.

I think this might be a little late, but... I was told this holiday isn't just for love, but for saying thanks as well. And there are so many people that have been kind to me here and I don't know the names of all of them, and there's nothing I can really do to say thank you to this world or the person who rule it except this, if they're listening... S-so, this is my gift to everyone who wants it! I hope you'll like it, and that it's been a nice celebration for everyone. I'm not sure what all of the lyrics are about, but I was told this is a popular song in the world where it's celebrated... I hope I'm singing it right!
[Here, have a completely unfiltered audio of Karyou singing "O Holy Night". Obviously she doesn't sound like Celine Dion, but for those who don't know her canon: this girl's voice is super gorgeous. Best singer in her world, and all that. Enjoy~] |

( Talking to her nightingale; not written down or recorded by the journal )
[she sighs and sits quietly by the window for a while, watching the falling snow] It's too lovely... they're like small diamonds. B-but it's so cold! [:O] I wonder if it'd be okay to let the nightingale outside for just a little while...
[...] I really hope the hotels are as warm as our house. It will only get colder from now on, right?
[[Let it also be known that I'll be a bit MIA this weekend and maybe extending a few days into next week.]] |

[has been watching people being out trick or treating by the window and through the journals, and been very delighted at all the pretty, funny costumes!]
It seems such a fun holiday! It's so beautiful with all the different clothes, and the magic is being a little kinder again, right? I'm not sure I really understand what's being celebrated, but it looks like it was a lot of fun! [^v^]
[Private; very easily hackable (she filtered mostly out of courtesy)]
Oh... I guess it's a good thing, that she could go home. She must be much happier now, like this! If she can be together with the people she likes the most... I'm happy for her. They've all been so kind to me, so I'll pray for them to be happy in their own world.
The person or people who run this world...? I'd like to say thank you very much, for letting me meet Sakura and the others, even for a little while. And even if it was like this. [<-- readable with some effort]
[/Private]
Excuse me - can I ask someone for a favour? Does anyone here like animals? |

[Filtered to Mamakura; hackable with effort to everyone but Karura (she tried her best)]
Sakura... can I talk to you about something? I mean, if you're not busy. |

[Sep. 16th, 2009|05:01 pm] |
Sister... I guess you must already know, since you know so much more about this country than I do, but have you ever seen the "zoo" here? With all the different animals that you can see and pet? It sounds like a lovely place, doesn't it?
[FYI, this girl hasn't been to school since Karura-ou arrived. She's working on it!] |

[She was on her way from school, and ended up resting in the park for a while as she passed by it (more because she's used to taking care not to exhaust herself too much than her really being all that tired). As she's letting her nightingale bathe in the fountain there and she catches her reflection in the water, cue memory:]
( It's pretty short, really )
[If anyone feels like coming across an at the moment slightly weepy little girl in the park, they are more than welcome to. o/] |

I think it's already been more than a fortnight. Such a long time... but I think I like it here, even if it's strange. Even my book changed - it's really nice of this world, isn't it?
[Private; hackable]
But... it's not that place at all. I should be glad, I guess, having gone to such a beautiful place, but I...
Sister... will I ever see you again? If I could just be sure of that, I'd wait without worrying, forever... But I'll try my best not to be sad, for sister's sake, and for all the people who've been kind to me here.
[/Private]
[so:] I know it's been a long time, but if it's still alright... I'd like to try to go to school. I think I'll be strong enough to do that; I only got a little tired going out at first, but I'm much better now. I'm sure the nightingale would like flying around more outside, too. |

It looks like such a beautiful place. The women are very kind… I couldn't have imagined a place like this, not even in dreams. And the little nightingale is here too. Sister… even if I can't leave from here, even if I must stay forever… please don't cry for me. I'll wait right here. I'll wait… forever and ever, until I can see you again.
Sister… [a few teardrops on the page]
[she'll just sit on the floor inside the WC, cradling her bird in her hands while crying softly and making no attempt at going outside] |
