[ Jean's normally spiky/fluffy haircut is even spikier today, if that's possible. The culprit? His baby mareep, which has decided to perch itself on his fluffy head. Babies are tiny, ok. And also full of static. ]

So the egg hatched the other day. You wouldn't believe what a pain it is to keep an electric-type from friggin' waking you up all the time when you've got feathers. This dumb mareep won't stop messing with my wings! But ma' likes her a lot, I guess, so we've been keeping her at home. Personally, I think she just wants free wool. (Don't let her know I said that.)

Anyway I guess I'll add my two cents in saying this tournament stuff is bullshit. But it beats getting attacked by weird machines so whatever, y'know? As long as they don't pull that shit again, who cares?

[ Pause............ ]

Oh, and I joined the Rangers, I guess. You can blame friggin' Eren and his dumb face. I know this shit ain't my journal or whatever but I've been kinda busy so I figured I owed some of you guys an update.

Still sucks that I couldn't get into the Swords, though.

[ He'd get bored after like ten minutes, don't worry. ]

Aw man, so stuff happens when you're all upset, but if you're in a good mood, it's just... boring? That's lame.

Pretty much. But I don't mind! It means as long as I stay in a good mood, nothing gets blown up! It's a pretty good incentive to try to stay optimistic.

[Not that it...always works]

Somehow "be happy or you'll blow shit up" seems like a pretty fucked up incentive if you ask me.

[And yet still less fucked up than "put on a happy face because donald doesn't wanna deal with your trauma kid".]

Heh, you think so? I guess if you put it that way it sounds a bit weird...

[ No sad faces, Sora! Not on our gummi ship! It's not endearing! ]

I mean, whatever works for you. I'm not exactly an optimistic guy, so I can't tell you how to live.

[Damn right! Sadness and grief is such a bummer man!]

You're not an optimistic guy? I would've never guessed.

[You know, between all your whining and saying how we're gonna die and so on and so on]

I know, right. I'm a real ray of sunshine.

[ Truly. ]

Mmhmm, I can tell that!

Well, don't worry! Even I'm freaky, I promise not to blow you up with my mind!

Please don't. That would... that would suck.
