[prior to noticing BB's update, he'd written this message. deciding that it couldn't hurt to spread the news far and wide, he posted it on the apartment forums regardless of whatever BB would have to say. unfortunately, times were dire, and his worry meter--because, believe it or not, Percy could indeed be worried--was off the charts.]

This is a public announcement for anyone that may be concerned. There is a burglar among us, and they have ransacked not only my home, but stolen my pet box turtle. I have already notified the complex manager of this crime.

If anyone happens to come across a box turtle that isn't fully grown but will, regardless, crawl towards you for a bite of strawberry, let me know ASAP. She answers to Stella. Yell too loud for her, though, and she might hide inside her shell.

No one steals from me.

	A burglar? Who stole your *pet*? I had a much better impression of this complex than that. First the cats, now this...what did Stephan have to say ~~about what he apparently doesn't monitor while at his desk 24/7~~? ~~Do you need me to turn this place upside down looking for Stella because NO ONE MESSES WITH A PET~~ (Reply to this) (Thread)

They didn't just steal my pet, but they trashed my living room in the process. I wasn't aware that my coffee table's contents needed to be emptied on the floor in order to steal a defenseless turtle.

I left my door locked when the cats arrived the other week. I am certain I locked my door this time, too. Stephan ~~has slightly less than an ounce of brain matter between his ears~~ told me he would speak with security, but I have a funny feeling he wasn't being serious.

I don't know which matter is worse; having my private home invaded and turtle stolen, or the complex management seeming less than perplexed by the entire ordeal. ~~The only impressive feat to consider is that whoever broke into my apartment, they did it without a single scratch on the lock and door.~~

...Your dogs are okay, Kate?
