❂ July 29th '17> Yesterday was promising, so he slept well through the morning to wake up covered in flowers. Suspects it was the red stag he'd met briefly yesterday... thank u. He was alone for not too long, able to think more about what Libel had said, formulating ideas.. concepts... until Nacci finally showed up not a minute too late.
Looked over his still injured friend, asking about his condition. Thankfully he was honest, he admitted to not doing well and Lacey used that as a segue to talk about the poppies he'd been getting them not working well. Cue Lacey bringing up his new and improved goods, with questionable origins that he won't talk about, offering to use them for Nacci. To his surprise, he accepted it maybe due to his fever... oh well better than nothing. He'd been spouting some random foreign words too, but Lacey just... nodded like yeah I see... uhuuuh
He gave him the powder first, explaining vaguely the instructions he'd been told just for Nacci to down the whole thing lIKE A DAMN POWDER SHOt. Grateful that he took it all though... the next part wouldn't be fun at all. Asked Nacci to show him his scars, and got turned face to face with some nasty gashes on his buddies back.. ouch. Took his time getting ready but eventually did smoosh the orb onto them, trying to get the red ooz into those nasty ass lacerations WITH HIS MOUTh... because he doesn't have hands. Thankfully it went well, and he quickly dropped the empty shell and DARTED over to the idol to wash off his sins. Came back damp, but glad and Nacci seemed thankful as well.

❂ July 28th '17> After seeing Nacci in such a bad state, he decided to seek out some medical advice and materials through one of the most notorious forest salesmen. He approached Libel, full of nerves, but was relieved to have them provide the first words. He remained somewhat nervous through the buying experience, obtaining a powder for reducing fevers and one of those expensive healing orbs after explaining what he needed. The powders weren't that bad, though they did take up almost all of his trade fodder. The price for the orbs however, was unexpectedly LARGE. Reluctantly he gave Libel his mothers locket. A large golden locket, filled with her current wedding ring, and her wedding ring and band from her first husband which she probably found missing shortly after Lacey ran off. He decided to stay and chat with The Inkheart afterwards, gaining lots of insight and wisdom of which he was never to tell anyone. Apparently Libel didn't want people to know he was giving away kind words for free, what a sTEAl. Their talk somewhat inspired him, and gave him some ideas he may use in the future.. but first he needed to get Nacci fixed up. He said thanked him, said his goodbyes, and wandered over to the tree by the idols.
He'd fallen asleep almost immediately after that chat, but hours later he awoke to a new cute face. Greeted them and got them to sit with him while he fell asleep AGAIN (this is how lacey makes friends sighs).

❂ late July '17> Although he's been seeing a lot of familiar faces, and bonding more with Nacci he's slowly realized just how long it's been since he's seen Air. He remembers their last meeting, and the horrible things he'd said to her. Lacey feels that he's 100% at fault for her disappearance. So he's upset with himself immensely. He understands how cruel he was, and that she really must have taken it to heart. Absolutely hates himself for it though so he'll keep himself secluded until it passes. He doesn't deserve company at this point.
He doesn't know where she went, he doesn't know if she's okay but he's looked far and low has found nothing. At this point he's expecting the worst. He refuses to look any further since he might find something that he just couldn't handle.
He wants alone time, but... he'll let himself be around Nacci simple because he's very hurt and ofc he's worried for his friend's health. Eat some poppies bro it'll make you feel better.

❂ 8/25/16> Started the day by wandering around, feeling extra adventurous today. Perhaps to get over the little slump of depression he's been in. Stumbled upon a large, interesting look lady with a white face like him and snooped. Sat near her and hoped she'd notice him. Eventually she did! She came over to him and...... INSTANTLY CHased him. He was surprised and horrified all at once, scrambling to get the heck away but tripped several times allowing her to claw at his backside. Eventually she backed off and he was left alone, and confused in the middle of the birch (a place he rarely goes.) Cried for awhile, and limped around trying to get his baring straight. Fled from various strangers and found himself in the little cave at the play ground. Mostly sulked, cried and played dead whenever a stranger came by which seemed to work pretty well. After some time, Brille came by and he IMMEDIATELY got closer for comfort. Fell asleep there with her, eternally grateful for her presence. Thank you dog lady, you are very nice.


❂ 7/14/16> Stayed by a willow for the first few minutes of the afternoon until he was ready to go wandering around. Saw Rose again, sat farther than usual from him next to a tree and fell asleep. Woke up with him closer again !! Eventually Sasuda appeared, greeted him and the grey buck offered him a flower crown. Accepted the offer and eventually took the flower crown, still wearing it. Fell asleep again, and dog lady came along. One day i will talk to you dog day, one day.


❂ 7/13/16> Went to the pond and spotted Rose, alone this time. Went over and sat beside the opposite side of the tree they were at. Eventually they got closer and so did he. After sometime of silence he finally started to speak, at first awkwardly but eventually building a great amount of confidence. Talked himself up to be a cool kid and Rose totally believed it e v e I am so cooooool.
Kinda very happy he was able to kick himself to talk, hopes he can do some more talking to the pink haired kid as he feels they could be good friends. They seem to have things in common anyhow.


❂ 7/12/16> Originally planned to spend the day at the pond, and he did for some time. Just looked at himself, then sat down by a tree, got up, did it again, say by another tree. The usual Lacey things. Eventually left because it got too crowded and got spelled and chased and wasn't having that at all no thank you. Found himself near the oak and spotted Rose rearing in the distance. Debated going back to the pond but Rose seemed to be trying to get his attention which was kinda cool so he went over. Sat near them and a dog and two fawns whom he'd never met before. Readjusted himself several times, even leaving to get a drink but coming back to sit closer to the dog and Rose. Found himself a asleep and woke up with the dog right next to him. Was startled, but in the end didn't say anything to them, sIGH LACEY PLS TALK TO PEOPLE.
All in all a good day, feels like he's making friends quietly, maybe one day he'll attempt to speak to people he doesn't know.


❂ 7/10/16> Woke up and went to the pond to look at himself for a moment before prancing off to the crying idol for a drink. Spotted Rose behind the tree and wanted to take this chance to redeem himself after Cyrus had embarrassed the heck out of him. He was still awkward and sat farther away until Bael came over. He was generally very surprised to see the beast, if not a bit shocked since he'd almost forgot about his old company. Somewhat glad to see him none the less. Bael made them get closer which Lace was SLIGHTLY offended by. He could do this himself!!! I can make friends!!!
Still very awkward though, moved around a lot but Rose seemed very happy which is nice. Couldn't work up the courage to speak but fell asleep next to the ...doe...? or buck or whatever they were anyway.

❂ 6/30/16> I HAVEN'T WRITTEN UPDATES FOR TYHIS KID IN SO LONG OMG; he's been around with Air and what not though like just not really IN forest you feel.
Anyhow real update: Woke up in the forest to realize it was twilight, had a stroll to see all the scenery in the nice new lighting that was fun. Helped someone with their set which took up a great amount of time, and took a nap. Took several naps in various locations actually. Stood in front of the pond for awhile too, looking at himself. He spotted a cool looking lady() but didn't have it in him to speak to them. Sat close by just in case he got bold but instead Cyrus came by. GREAT. He knew, somehow, and immediately called out to them and got them to allow their presence. He was SO FREAKING Embarrassed AHHhhh. But, he tried to cover it up with looking all tall and prissy. Did notice, from a few stray glances, that the pink one or 'Rose' had a few bruises. Assumes she's a cool kid who gets in fights. Didn't actually SPEAK to her just to Cyrus and his friend who came later Obs who he mistook for his father. Ended up alseep with a cookie next to him in the end.
Only ended up calling Rose 'she' because Cyrus did, in the beginning he was going to stay on neutral pronouns but Cyrus must know things, he knows things...

❂ 9 / 22 / 15 > At first he was trying to find Sadiki to see if he had his harem put together but instead found another deer near a flower patch. Went over sniffed and greeted as he got up. Spent time greeting him and others who came around throwing spells every now and then. didn't seem to bother either of them so he threw a few back. tried to get his company to play around but seemed completely confused at that. gave up but started uo a few times UNTIL the other started snacking on some mushrooms. things got more interesting... his nameless company started to actually bounce around which was nice, he seemed like he was having fun. didn't think to try any of the mushrooms until later, and pretty much lost track of time a bit after that... he remembers lots of nuzzles and awkward playing and then laying down and falling asleep next to him.

TLDR; lacey had his first experience with DRUGs and gay probably stuff happened.

❂ 9 / 21 / 15 > found a pretty girl by the pond, took awhile but eventually approached her just before another came over to greet her (Shard) hung back but eventually went back over when he left. Greeted again and played with a bit before sitting, then getting up and moving to the Oak where the deer from before and another doe (Cassiopeia) was. Greeted them and sat by the pretty girl.
Left the tree with her and bounced more, eventually following her to the same doe from the tree AND a new face, Sadiki. He's prettY TOO JFc all these pretty PEOPEL???/
Joined them and got a free message from him queue blushy lacey. Hanging around them for now.
Stuck around him the whole day greeting new deer in between naps. Pretty goood day.

Sadiki left, he needed some rest anyhow wished him a goodnight and watched him off. Went over to the nearest herd who was Vladik's. Greeted him and his pals and soon enough they all went over to claim Sadikis old place. Chilled until he spotted Rota !!! Hadn't seen her in awhile still remembers her so he went over and Vladik did as well. Eventually greeted her and romped a lot. Was nice uvu hopes she remembers him cr ies

❂ 9 / 20 / 15 >
hung around at the pond doing nothing near a larger red deer (Eliah), watched a gorgeous looking winged deer (Rakil) who eventually approached him. Romped with her for a good while until the vulture came over and romped for a bit, cautious but still happy he continued to romp. Got tired after awhile and sat down near both of them. Later joined by Air and Cross;;

❂ 7 / 18 / 15 >
went off to find Cyrus, though he seemed upset and he was with a large scary dude... no thanks. Wandered a bit before being greeted by a large.. skull faced.. guy. Was a bit scared, though he seemed to be friendly? Ended up sitting with the large guy.

❂ 7 / 19-21 / 15 >
has just been sleeping by the pond, and hanging out with Bael for the last few days. Friend? I think??
Caleb joined them, Lacey greeted him, seems nice?
Re-positioned so he could look at them both.
Fell asleep, woke up with Bael /very/ close to him but he didnt mind too much..
