[ Oh, hey, it's that guy from yesterday. His face is a little bruised, but he's not paying any attention to it, so you shouldn't either. Ahem. Move along. He just has a quick question, anyway: ]

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone has seen a notebook. I had it on me when I got here, but it's gone missing, and it's sort of important. It's red, and about this big - [ he opens his hand a few inches; it's not very big at all ] - and it has, uh -- well, it has lyrics in it, and some other notes. Kinda beat up. Can't really miss it.

So if anybody found it, or finds it, let me know. [ He raises his eyebrows knowingly; WHICHEVER FUCKER STOLE IT BETTER GIVE IT BACK. ] I'm Galen, by the way. It has my name in it, too; inside cover. Thanks.

[gloryisbullshit]

Can't you just write'm again?

no u

[gleans]

Not really, no. They wouldn't be the same.

[gloryisbullshit]

[A shrug, and offhand:] Guess they must not've been in very good shape, if you lost'm so easy. Obviously not something worth guarding too, uh, too vigilantly.

[gleans]

Well I usually don't plan on getting knocked the fuck out in some freak cape town, so I didn't really factor that in when I put it in my pocket yesterday. Next time I'll carry a safe.

[gloryisbullshit]

Well, if you got a safe, maybe you can do with cash too then. Jeezis, did your mom teach you nothing about personal safety?

[gleans]

[ Flat. Look. ] Nnnope. Must've missed that lesson. Why would anyone steal that, is what I wanna know.

[gloryisbullshit]

You're totally sure someone stole it. Like you're some genius with valuable research.

[gleans]

It's like, physically impossible for it to have fallen out of my coat pocket. Even if it did, and wasn't moved or stolen, I would've found it by now. But it's nowhere, it's just gone.

[gloryisbullshit]

Maybe you gave it to Jesse. [JUST PULLING NAMES OUT OF THE AIR, HERE]

[gleans]

... Look, what the hell do you want? What do you know about Jesse?

[gloryisbullshit]

I wanna help you find your shit! You were talkin to him when you landed, come on!

[gleans]

What -- no, I wasn't, and no, I definitely didn't give it to him. He isn't even here.

[gloryisbullshit]

No shit, I meant before. Christ, you are slow!

[gleans]

Look -- I don't know what you're talking about, and it doesn't matter, anyway, because I had it before your overreacting brother knocked me out.

[gloryisbullshit]

But how do you know?

[gleans]

Because I saw it. I went to get my wallet to show him my fucking license and it was there, alright?

[gloryisbullshit]

I dunno, buddy, he hit you pretty hard. I think you're a little rattled.

[gleans]

And I think you're giving me bull, but thanks.

[gloryisbullshit]

Why would I do that? A friend of my friend!

[gleans]

Dude, you already stole my money and my saline. I think I might have reason not to trust you.

[gloryisbullshit]

I already gave them back!

[gleans]

... That doesn't undo the fact that you robbed me while I was passed out.

[gloryisbullshit]

And I said I was sorry.

[gleans]

And I appreciate it! But I'm not a dumbass.

[gloryisbullshit]

[HMMMM] Well. You did lose your diary.
