That sounds like a lot to deal with Sam. How have you been holding up?

You guys are too kind. I’m doing alright, just trying to keep things in order. I’ve been trying to find time to properly update this blog in the way it was originally intended but I just don’t think I can. Briar would know what to blog about if she were here.

[riverheadrangers]

Do we have any updates from Katherine about Briar? Or about the trail Briar was talking about before she went MIA?

At the moment — no.

Nobody seems to know anything. We’ve resorted to asking tourists to keep an eye out during their day but I doubt any of them actually do it. Katherine is barely touching the topic and it’s making me nervous. I feel like she knows something but I should stop pressing her.

[riverheadrangers]

wait, i went back though some older asks and saw that briar said something about going on some trail that was missing on the map... is it possible they went to find the trail and got lost or something?

I mean yeah, but Katherine told us to leave it to the police and get on with our work. Everybody’s really worried about her and it isn’t like Briar to get lost like that. She’s the best out of all of us when it comes to navigation because she works in nearly every section of the park and has been here for ages. I just hope she’s okay and comes back soon — if something bad happened to her..

Thorne would — well, we’d all be devestated.

sam! do you know where briar is or whats going on with thorne?? or are there any updates on where briar is from thorne??

Oh- hey.

This blog has been dead for a while hasn’t it?

So much has been going on I guess we didn’t even think to update it.

As for Thorne and Briar..well. Some of the other rangers from a neighbouring park found Thorne wandering around — no idea how he got there. But what we do know is that he’s not talking to anybody about it or what happened, just trying to get back to work as soon as possible which isn’t like him at all. We still haven’t found Briar, the whole town is littered with missing person posters. The rangers on our side have been really down about it but there’s nothing more we can do than keep praying that she’ll come back okay — wherever she may be. I think some of us are starting to suspect the worst though. It’s hard not to feel the same.

It’s not passion. It’s you wanting to preserve the memory of someone who is gone

SHE ISN’T GONE. You don’t know what you’re talking about.

[riverheadrangers]

Thorne stop bullying Sam. He just lost his fiancé, don’t you know?

Oh! Yes! Of course! I would know NOTHING ABOUT LOSS!! MY BAD.

It’s not bullying.. it’s just.. passion with the job… y’know?

[riverheadrangers]

officiant/crushing on sam anon here,,

sam im so sorry for your loss, if you want i can send some cake and flowers to the park for you!!

Sorry Anon— had a hard time replying to this, Thorne keeps locking me out :,) but that would be greatly appreciated! (Roses and red velvet, please.)

[riverheadrangers]

Alright. What if she isn’t a corpse. Surely she wouldn’t be the same.

SHE’S FINE. JUST LOST.

I’m going to find her and everything is going to be FINE.

[riverheadrangers]

And what if she is already dead? All you’d be doing is finding a corpse

Don’t say that.. she isn’t dead.

She’s strong and smart and she’s FINE I just need to find her. You don’t know what you’re TALKING ABOUT.

[riverheadrangers]

Thorne, you must really love Briar. It’s a shame you can’t do anything though

What? No. I can. Don’t say that —

I CAN do something. I’m going to find her. I know I will.

[riverheadrangers]

Wait, Thorne what do you mean there are clues? Do you know what happened to/where Briar is?

I ALREADY KNOW WHO DID THIS.

Katherine did this, it couldn’t have been anyone else. There is no way in hell anyone else could have done this.

I don’t need clues and I dont need hints.

I NEED TO FIND BRIAR. I can’t lose her.

[riverheadrangers]

Sam we have bad news… that Vegas wedding isn’t happening… the anon… well. They met the fate of an AO3 author…

I.. need time to grieve.. if you’ll excuse me..

[riverheadrangers]

can we be friends if i help you find briar??

If you find Briar before I do? I’ll consider it.

[riverheadrangers]

are you not our friend thorne? :(

I don’t need friends. I live in the fire/watch tower to keep people AWAY.

I’m not focused on making friends, i’m focused on finding Briar.

[riverheadrangers]

Sorry for the late response pooksters <33 totally getting you some lilies and red velvet cake

Wait is this actually happening?? I’ve never been married before or even been to a wedding so I have no idea what it’s like. Can I wear my sandals???

[riverheadrangers]

Would you still be our friend if we all turned into worms, Thorne

No.

Wait who said we were all friends?

[riverheadrangers]

Wow Sam! You already seen to be a hit with the folks here! I mean, you are rather handsome if I say, so I understand why people are acting the way they are!

I’m not gonna deny my good looks but I’m really not all that. I don’t think I’m gonna be as good as Briar at running this page, I know we haven’t been posting a lot recently— it’s just not typically my thing— online stuff I mean. Not that I can’t do it it’s just, I’m used to the more outdoorsy stuff. Briar is good at both-

But we are creating this whole new area in the park which I think is gonna be dope. Is that the right word to use.. ? that’s why we aren’t posting here as much, but we will be back too it when it’s done!

I hope Briar’s there to see it..
