I'm searching for the Other Beauty. I'd like to speak to her please, if anyone knows her whereabouts.

Also, I normally don't socialize within the building, as I'm generally confined above-stairs for the duration of my time here, but I was curious if anyone else feels rather disappointed with this turn of events? We have limited time here, after all, and now we are all incarcerated as well?

Locked to R1

[Hopefully] Are you out there still?

	[More irritated growling.] I do not care what her name is. She is not you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[With disdain.] He did not. He knows better. Besides, he has already given up on her after she left the first time. He is not her worth, or yours, or hers, [the final clearly indicating Ella. He starts to pace again, with individual swipes in the air.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Softly] Quit pacing.

I am speaking to people they know, trying to find ways to help. She has been with some man named William, who I am hoping can explain her shortcomings. And Sleeping Beauty is here, and she is friends with your counterpart. [Sigh] I have not heard from the Other Beauty, however, and I do not wish to engage Little Red Riding Hood.

I do not trust him not to be swayed by this Other Beauty. He is weak, and if she cries, he will capitulate. He does not know his own mind.

	[A great huffing snort.] Her shortcomings. [He doesn't stop pacing. His paws make no sound but his weight shifts nearby.] He does not have his own mind. He is weak. [The Beast has said this before, and he's irritated to have to go over it again.] He will do whatever anyone asks as long as they are soft and silly-looking and he feels it will help.

	[Softly, desperately] I do not want to disappear. If she leaves, I will. If he hurts her again, she will leave. She already thinks he does not want her! What do we do? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Already frustrated with his imprisonment, the Beast is short of temper.] I don't know! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There is no need to snap at me, it won't fix our situation. [Frowns] Why are you so sure of things, when he is not? You make me feel wanted, because you want me here. He doesn't know what he wants, so he cannot make anyone feel wanted. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: R1b or 905 or whatever/R1 labete 2010-05-27 06:20 pm UTC (link)
	He cannot make anyone feel wanted because he does not think he should. He wants to keep her safe but he does not think he is worth being with so it confuses her. [Whining.] I do not like this, it is for old women to cluck over the behavior of foolish couples. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[She smiles at his whining] But you know him better than she does. She thinks she is not enough for him, that he does not want her. She doesn't understand he doesn't want anything - but I don't think it would help if she did. She is a romantic, and she wants to be wanted. [More smiles] Everyone wants that, I think, at the end of the day.

The solution, then is simple. We let him find out what he wants.

But how?

	He is drinking too much for me to tell. I do not think he is bothering to try anymore. [Disgusted.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If he believes any of the women need him to be sober and do this, will he? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	[She makes a fond sound at his annoyance, and is completely not bothered by it] Sleeping Beauty has agreed to check on the man in the morning, and Jack has agreed to check on Ella. You and I, we must find out how to make your man write again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: R1b or 905 or whatever/R1 labete 2010-05-28 05:57 am UTC (link)
	[That gets a rumble of thought, his first so far.] Perhaps. He thinks he has lost that ability, as if he could not scribble at any time if he had proper pen and ink. [The Beast could well be rolling his eyes. He has little appreciation for the arts, it is clear.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: R1b or 905 or whatever/R1 bookshelved 2010-05-28 05:59 am UTC (link)
	I am going to leave him a message, as suggested by Javert. I think it is a wise course of action. You should do the same for the woman. [Letting worry seep into her voice] The Other Beauty admits she is the man's Jane. This worries me. [Sigh] I would like to spend one night with you without worrying about other people.

	Re: R1b or 905 or whatever/R1 labete 2010-05-28 05:38 pm UTC (link)
	The man told Jane he is staying with the girl. [Angry muttering.] I do not understand why such a man is desirable to all these females. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: R1b or 905 or whatever/R1 bookshelved 2010-05-28 06:03 pm UTC (link)
	[Smiling fondly at the angry muttering] I believe it is because he writes and can say romantic things, when he chooses. I do not believe he understands staying with the girl does not just mean staying with the girl. There is more to it than that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am a woman. Did you tell him he had to write? The woman likes it when he writes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Softly] If we are not locked away next month, if we're both still here, we're not getting ourselves involved in any of the dramas of this building. I insist. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
