[There are a lot of inkblots, like Jake is tapping his pen against the paper rapid-fire. Then there's an entire green smear across the page, like he knocked his entire thing of ink over onto it. Finally, there are words.]

Confound it i just cant stop shaking.
Dirk roxy i need to speak with you both posthaste im in a bit of a tizz here.

[He makes an attempt at a filter, but fails splendiforously at it.]

What would be a good halloween costume to pair with a flapper?

[The sound he just made is not at all human. In any way. He probably shuffled himself right under his covers, too, hiding there for a while before he peers back out and rereads Rose's lovely lavender text.]

[And shrieks again.]

[It's something like a full ten minutes later that he finally stops flipping a table and replies.]

Well golly that just seems underhanded to have you teach me how to hide things from you.
Though i guess a lady does like a surprise once in a while.
And great galloping jehosaphat miss lalonde i cant handle all this flattery i must insist you quit.
I cant hold a candle to you in any way but im honored that youd even be willing to peruse a party with this bully.

[Rose will just knit and watch her journal in the meantime. She chuckles a bit as it seems to take quite a bit before Jake replies. She can only fathom what he might be doing.

Rolling in his bed perhaps. That's a funny thought.]

I'm sure you would use the function for more than just hiding from me.
Last I checked, you quite fancied having conversations with me or am I assuming wrong?
I will hold my tongue for this once because you requested so nicely. Heh. ;)
You are putting me on quite a pedestal. I am flattered, but you really don't need too. I was once a first year barely getting my footing in this school once before.

[ficklefuckwit]

Oh nonono! Certainly not! Youre quite correct i do quite fancy chatting with you.
Well you have offered to help me with my studies and even to teach me how to properly filter my own journal entries i believe that warrants a bit of pedestal placement.
Though i may just be old fashioned.

[seeringlight]

Oh, I am glad. I am always a little wary that sometimes I might come off as a bit antagonistic and deter others from approaching me. Ah, so is the life of one who must call out bullshit when she sees it.
Hohoho. I'm just helping a fellow peer. That is all. It should be a responsibility from an upperclassman to help those under to achieve.

[ficklefuckwit]

Any antagonistic behavior ive experienced from you has been nothing but charming i assure you.
Its refreshing to see a lady willing to call it like it is.
My grandmother was much the same.
Its entirely more appreciated than i know how to articulate properly.
Even without the embarrassment of my current mishap.

[seeringlight]

Ah, I can rest easy. A single breath of relief was made just now.
Your grandmother sounded like a great lady.
You need not be embarrassed. You merely wanted to match me without me knowing. I find it endearing that you wanted to surprise me in such a way.

[ficklefuckwit]

Your sarcasm wounds me.
She was. She was purely wonderful and i miss her every day more than i know how to say.
Well then i suppose id best cut that out shouldnt i.

Sometimes you need to grow some thick skin to get around here.
You should. You better shape up.
