Journal Entry Game [Prompt Based]

Posted 7 months, 5 days ago (Edited 7 months, 5 days ago) by IronyMobile

I just had the idea -- what if there was a prompt game where a concept or theme present in the last post could be included in the next one?

The length of a post or prompt does not have to be too extensive, however it can be as lengthy as preferred otherwise.

Ideally it would start with 'Dear Journal', whether evolving into something absurd or mundane. Further, OCs would be preferred as a focus, but that is not too necessary considering narrative detachment.


An example:

1.

"Dear journal,

Today nothing happened. I was stuck in the outhouse because the door was blocked.

Sincerely, -----"


2.

"Dear journal,

There was a blocked door in my house so I broke it. This might have been a mistake. There are spiders everywhere now.

Sincerely, -----"


Rules:

> No NSFW content.
> Be respectful of other players and OCs.
> The posts have to be sequential in themes, carrying over from the last theme.
> Humour is allowed, and relatively encouraged?
> Graphic or disputable content is not allowed however. Nothing degrading essentially.
> A first-person (I/me/myself) perspective would add to humour, but it can be any perspective otherwise?
> The first post can be a freebie, or can start with this theme: seaside.

While sorting out of the Archives, I found some sort of.. picture book? Or "comic", it calls itself. Though, it doesn't contain anything kid friendly, rather, it's quite depressing. Who follows a story only for the one your rooting for to die!? @.@

While doing so, I over heard some ruckus outside, but I don't think it's anything to concern with me. (In truth, I don't want to check.)

For my own thoughts,

I cannot work like this. Not today at least. There is a loud ruckus going on outdoors and I assume it to be an event-related day. I have not entirely checked what recently and can only assume as much. If it comes to it, abandoning my work for a few hours might be better than spending time interrupted. I might even pick up a local basket.

End entry I suppose?

there was an event today the clinic closed for half a day. more like a festival like a harvest festival. Father gave me and Ruby a list of what we needed to buy at the event, and we split up

when I finished buying stuff, I was eating a popsicle and I saw him, yes "Him". I pretended that I didn't see him and tried to blend in with the crowd. it fails and I spend some time with him then go home

for dinner, father makes his most iconic apple pie. it's has caramel and extra cinnamon in it

Dear Journal...

Today Robyn and I went out into the city since today has been the only sunny day in what feels like months. Apparently everyone else in town was thinking the same thing, cuz there was a LOT of people and food. Good thing I had some money, since both of us turned out to be starving after doing a lot of walking. I splurged a lot on desserts; the best one was this huge apple pie being sold at one stall. I watched the dude make it before we went up there, and it seemed to me like he was putting a ton of extra cinnamon on it...now I know I like cinnamon.

There was also a fountain that I tossed a coin in to make a wish. Losing a little change so I could have some good luck never hurt, right?

Dear Journal,

There was another path to adjacent neighborhoods today. The usual supplies were allotted: medicine, tools, and other necessities a comprehensive focus. This included desserts with the thus far typical autumn apple and persimmon harvest as I could not ignore the amount present from the alps. I know that I may have too much of a penchant for baking. Angitia mentioned a few things in the middle of matters. One of them included the following:

This might suffice I suppose? I am still practicing daily on other notation, that necessary.

The excess of preserved goods that currently exists may have to be considered, on a further note. Not everything is suitable for specific individuals and categorisation is necessary.

With consideration given to whom it may concern, if not myself.


Translation: "I need to practice this evidently. It seems partly excessive, bvtt she has been doing this far longer."

Dear diary …

Dad had a fever yet again. This time, his temperature was dangerously high. It scared the both of us, but dad told me not to worry. I am currently doing my all to nurse back to perfect health again, but I really wish he wasn't so hard on himself… he always makes sure he has time to bond with me, but at the same time, he makes hazardous decisions to his schedule when he is working. I wouldn't be surprised if I have to bring him to the hospital the next time around…

Humans are so vulnerable and mean to themselves. Why?

P.S. - On a lighter note, the orange and yellow leaves look so appealing outside. The scary decorations the neighbors are putting up look neat, too!

dear diary,

today is autumn, been almost a year since Luy in the hospital. I started slowly forget her voice, her face, her warmth, and smile *a scribble of a sad face beside it*

Me going to visit Mai and Luy, Mai's heart is going bad now she in the hospital *a drawing of a heart and a sad face beside it* Mai like lily so I'm going to bring some to her

do not forget do not forget do not forget it's all Ran fault it's all my fault. IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT THAT LUY AT THE HOSPITAL AND HAVEN'T WAKE UP. DA SAD BECAUSE OF YOU. IT'S ALL MY FAULT

Here I am again, still going. Don't know why I'm writing this in here, but I guess I need to get this out and off my chest. I'll just write it bluntly, Ezekiel's in the hospital. Well, the company hospital, not any regular one. He got fucked up on his last contract, some British SAS guy or something. I told him not to accept it, he wasn't ready to go after former military. He didn't have enough training. He didn't listen, the selfish bastard. Got shot, stabbed, beaten- it's a wonder he's alive. What the fuck was he thinking?

He's out of surgery now, CEO put his best medical guys in the OR, but I just can't shake this feeling from my mind. How did they even find him? With the condition they said he was in? I really find it almost conspiracy-like, but I dunno, I think that's just my way of excusing his actions. I hope he'll recover pretty well, because no matter what I say about him, he's a tough sonofabitch and you can never keep that kid down. I guess I did a good job raising him after mom and dad He'll be alright.

On a side tangent, it's nearly Halloween. I'm pretty excited for the whole thing, despite never really going out for it. I think the spirit of it all on the day of is what hits me. I'll go grab some candy for myself to enjoy and watch the specials coming on that day, plus a little something for Zeke. He'd appreciate it. Maybe one of these years I'll feel like dressing up again like we used to.

Until next time. The one and only, Tilant Wey.

Dear Diary,

It's almost Halloween! I can't wait!! This year, i'll def convince bro to dress up with me. No way i let him stay cooped up at home watching horror movies again. I'll invite those wolf siblings from next door, too! Maybe we can go as a group? The more the merrier, after all. 

Tomorrow we'll go together to the video rental store to pick out a big horror movie assortment. Even tho i'm 100% making him have fun on Halloween night, we still have a week or two till then. I have some titles in mind, but i wanna see if there's anything i missed too. Maybe we'll get Evil Dead again, i really liked it. Sadly the newly released movie we rented the other day was clearly a bluray rip, so i'll try and avoid newer films. The sound quality was horrible! Kinda sucks since i didn't manage to catch Saw 10 at the cinema. Guess i can't really complain since it's the only video rental store in town, tho.

See you later!

Dear Diary,

Today I was called a witch by a sad old French woman whose brother I killed because he was a perv. It's not my fault I took her job in the mob, so I don't know why she's still mad that was like years ago. Anyways, I'm only writing this because my therapist said she wanted me to and that she wanted to see evidence that I'd been thinking about my feelings.

I swear I might end that woman one of these days.

Anyway, end entry. Okay Rhett you can stop trancribi-

15th November - it is exactly 7:14 as I write this. 

Earlier today I impulsively decided on visiting The Cats Tail; a very popular bar and restaurant. I should've known not to enter when I saw a single crow perched upon the place's sign. But, I entered, and about half an hour later an old lady warning me about a local witch! I had never even spoken to the woman until today but she knew me by name, she did, and then started on a tangent of god-knows-what! She looked half-insane; her eyes red and buldging, her hair and clothes dishevelled, her unintelligible mumbling, its as if she hadn't an ounce of sleep and was going mad!

I hope to update this daily as I used to. No matter how irrational this may sound, i fear that the old hag has placed a curse upon me, and everyone WILL know about this if misfortune decides to befall me.
