[On the night of the second exodus:] ( Private )

What the hell are you dumbasses leavin' for?! You was supposed to stick wit' us!

Y'all a bunch a' goddamn quitters!!

Who: Rorschach & Question
What: Getting ready to go into town tomorrow.
When: January 7th, after the meeting
Where: Room 1207
Rating: PG-13 at most? Aside from maybe some language?

( What if he'd gone, too? )

[hums, pleasantly] You know, I asked the Castle for a copy of the Farmer's Almanac. They still have it here, did you all know? It says January is the perfect time to start planning your garden. No time like the present, after all.

[flipping pages, idly, still humming] Oh, would you look at this. Apparently, one's garden should be twice as wide as its tallest plant. ... I'm going to need quite a plot for that corn. Though, maybe I'll try flowers, too, this year. Those do require a bit more time, and if the Castle's any indication, I'm not going anywhere...

Now, where to put it. There's plenty of room. I could even use one of those emptied-out rooms to keep flats and start some seedlings ahead of time. So nice of whats-his-face to clear it out for me.

Oh, and, speaking of. I don't see what you're all so upset about. [pleasantly] It's just a little January thaw....

[To Those that Stayed Behind (aka: not crazy)]

[he was hanging back in the meeting, but that was a lot of people, all talking about what they could do, and what they might have to do -- he wanted to know what was out there, who had they lost, and ideally - what sort of odds were being stacked against them, if the time came for that sort of action]

I'd like to get a list going. Moonbay already has covered who is here and what they can do - but I'm curious to know who actually left the castle. Who's missing? Is there a pattern that we can sort out?

[Ken noticed that Chie's attention had been going elsewhere during the meeting, but he didn't really think about it - lots to discuss, after all. But while he had been compiling the information for the slides, he had looked up to see that Chie had vanished. He finished the presentation quickly and let it run, then excused himself, taking his coat with him. When he saw that the door to the courtyard had been open, his heart had sank, and when he found Chie-sized footprints in the snow, his heart sank even further. Making sure his journal was open, he ran until he caught sight of a familiar silhouette in an open field...]


Chi... Chie!

Well, I'm taking a break to have hard liquor. If you'd like to join me, I'll be boozing in the kitchen.

After a long series of wacky travel adventures I am back in town and ready to get Takato active again. Anyone want to fill me in on the last two weeks?

[Team Leverage - regardless of where they're living right now]

Where's everyone at? Castle - city? Just trying to keep an eye on people.

[he's at Bela's since closing up the Lux and checking to see where she fell on these 'sides' so to speak]

[/Leverage]

I'm baaaack! :)

Changed two things; got (and assembled!) an actual desk, so computer screen is a safer distance from my eyes, and have vowed to stop eating so much junk food and pop (look! There's an actual glass of WATER on my new DESK!). I'm chalking the headaches up to eye strain and bad food. I already feel loads better :)

Other good outcomes that weren't expected; sitting on a chair instead of a couch is helping my back, and having the keyboard at elbow height is helping my wrists. Amazing what one little change than do ...

Anyway, I'm glad I was able to fix things up! Having so much fun in this current plot! :D You guys rock!!! *hugz*

I am back from hiatus! Mostly because I can't ignore the plot that's on the way, so yes. Here I am. And...struggling to catch up. With me are Joshua Christopher, Jr., Larsa, and Nina. I know there was supposed to be a meeting post and a moving post today or something like that, but I'm way behind so if anyone could update me on what's been figured out so far ICly, and what's been going on with the castle since New Years, I'd reeeally appreciate it.

And yeah, Lana is missing from that return list. I feel like an ass, especially with the nice Christmas gifts she just got (puppy!!!), but it's been a struggle with her for awhile, and I think part of that is she's just been here awhile, and I canon updated her to a spot that's kind of...put her in a rut and made her a hermit in Paradisa. So yeah.

It's been great interacting with her CR, past and present, but it's time for Lana to go home again and save some people on the other side of the world. Since Casca and Castiel are the ones who drop into her house the most often (and unnanounced) either of them are free to discover the cute black lab puppy left behind.

Hey guys! Moonbay and Ken made an IC List of the abilities and skills given at the meeting. It's filtered from baddies, so no need to worry about them. That means you Bakuras.

Anyway, it was set during the end of the meeting. I know people won't be done commenting, so please, if you need to, update me OOCly here so I can edit the list. I'll be checking back occasionally, but that won't be foolproof. XD

Think it's about time we headed back to the castle, Kate. Don't think there's much out here that'll be of any help, unless we need an empty tower that's bigger on the inside for some reason. Maybe we'll drop by the city first and do a bit of poking around...

[have some TARDISy noises as he starts her up! then, a few moments later, a distinct crashing noise and a couple of dull "thumps." The Doctor and Kate are out cold, folks! The TARDIS has crashed sideways somewhere in the countryside.]



((ooc: Canon-bump for Nine is a go! Kate is just knocked out 'cause Ash's computer still isn't fixed. /kicks it))

[Dictated forever, set near the end of the meeting.]

During our little brainstorming session, Ken and I made a list of what people could do in case of an emergency. It's organized into categories for easier use. Enjoy yourselves.

[Current Castle Residents]

Awesome.

Right. Everyone is either staying or going. The ones going don't seem to notice how odd it is. It's odd though, right? Like, I mean four of us all thinking we were from the future - that was odd, and everyone was all, [imitates warning tone] 'It's the castle making you do these things, it'll be fine in a week.'

There're meetings though, and people worried -- [after he's mauled Chuck crosses this part out -] but I mean I tried to take the room across from Sam and Dean - but it still says Clark Kent lives there. I mean, if he's not gonna live there - I should be able to take it right?

Anyone have an opinion on Squatter's Rights in the castle?



[then dictates this LOUDLY]

WHY THE HELL WOULD SOMEONE LEAVE THEIR DOGS BEHIND????

Thanks to a rough landing, Nine'll be out of commission for the duration of the plot. He'll wake up after, however, with some shiny new canon! I'm bumping him to just after "The Doctor Dances," so you'll basically get a very cheerful Doctor going wtf did I miss? XD There'll be an IC post for him getting knocked out...possibly later tonight or tomorrow morning. Whenever I feel less woozy. :|

P.S. The new Time War canon of Rassilon provided by the last two specials is also being included in his background info. Which clearly means he needs an honestly loss sometime, aha. /shot

All of this has been mod-approved!
