[ accidental voice post ]

With the curse over the past two days, I almost forgot.

Three years.

[A long silence, obviously she doesn't realise she's recording. A heavy, frustrated sigh.]

Three—since Monday.

[Another pause, then a dull thud, a punch thrown against the wall.]

... d'Arvit.

Quick note that I won't be around from Thursday 12th - Monday 15th, because I'm travelling to Stockholm. So:

Miranda [101st_job]
Sakura [betterthanthen]
Tatsuki [championess]
and Naoto [markedbyname]

Will be on autopilot.

This'll teach me.

So, my laptop is having display issues. Normally I'd be able to handle them, but recently they've been getting to the point where they're so unpredictable that I've been having no time whatsoever to tackle them or save anything, even Lazarus won't do anything. Work and RP have been constantly interrupted due to my display issues, which blank out my screen and while the processor still runs, I have to force shut down, losing most of my work.

Which is ALSO why I've been dropping tags left, right and centre and I really, REALLY feel terrible about it, but I assure you it's not intentional and I would love to backdate if you guys don't mind ;; Until then, slowatus for:

Inoue Orihime | threadedstars
Megumi Yamamura | roseblooms

AND A SPECIAL APOLOGY TO JULES I WAS SUPPOSED TO MAKE AN ENTRY FOR YOU THREE DAYS AGO SOB.


Please forgive my fail. D:

I'm definitely not jump into this.

So, that being said, does anyone need some kind of lodging? Possibly a place to duck out? There's plenty of space here in this building. Least I can do is make sure some of you have a place to stay and out of the fire. I'll take in as much as I can.

I am finally fully back from the slow-atus to end all slow-atuses. So my activity will hopefully pick up again, though I shall still backdate a lot due to timezones and sleep at a sensible hour being very much needed. :<

Back in action with me is this Rin right here aka your trusty failavenger.

When; Evening of Saturday, October 31 2009 ( Really back dated and in parts)
Rating; PG-R
Characters; Harold Saxon and Rose Tyler
Summary; Doctor bonding and mind raping.
Log; ( Chips & Tea )

I'm fully rested from yesterday. I see the time has came once again to offer my help to anyone who needs it. Lilith-san, if that's alright with you, of course. I... I can heal or fetch anything if a doctor needs it. I'd like to help in any way possible.

There was a poor woman out in Xanadu - she was like a ghost, in a way. I really icy ghost. I hope she's alright, she seemed to be of great importance, being tricked and sealed like that. People can be so cruel.

But that seems to be one of the smaller worries in that place.

[ooc; Hotaru released Jadis yesterday :|b. She's a little reluctant to say her name, won't divulge anything, unless you've been on really friendly terms?]

Leon will be leaving the City today for a week so I can canon review for him and possibly canon update him to some time in Tales of Destiny 2. The decision is still pretty up in the air and dependent on if I can get in the mood to play all of ToD2. But canon updated or not, he'll be returning on Sunday the 15th.

Roommates, feel free to notice that Leon left Chaltier in the City when he left. Godmode rights and swordian ownership on Chal will go to Yuri until Leon returns. And don't mess up his corner, guys B|

This will also be a hiatus for me until that Sunday ♥

Uh right, when you haven't looked at your computer much at all in over a week, that's when you know. Hiatus for me for life, the universe, and me trying to figure out how I'm going to make my new job later this week work out schedule-wise. and I am so, so sorry for dropping all those tags on 4th wall. I had company from out of town show up earlier than I'd expected fjaklsdjf orz forever

This affects (and mod rights to):

Hikaru | redstrength: Still hanging around the City, working days at the orphanage. Umi, Mokona, and apartment mates have got her. If there's some social event that would make sense she'd be there, consider her there.

Minene | dartaccident: No modding rights, but she's plotting, deities. I'll get with you, mods, when I come back.

Rain | not_methuselah: Hanging out, destroying the shounen apartment. Apartment mates, take him, feel free to use any of those disasters I talked about.

Duo | mechaplanned: No one really gets rights to him, but he's around doing intel and being a nuisance. UH LOCKON AND SETSUNA, you can assume he went to that lunch if you guys want to assume that? idek what's been going on fjaskljdf

I'm going to say a week for me to get this stuff sorted out and try to be back in action around this time next week. If anyone has a question or something, I'm an email away (acagle[a]gmail.com). You guys have fun, see you again soon!

I see now that the embers of battle have yet to be extinguished.
Within me, the wish to spill blood cries out. The sight of broken corpses piled beneath my feet. The mountains of death.
I have abandoned that indulgence.
Take your violence to those who can defend against violence.
Struck the weak and the powerless, turn the war into a slaughter, and my sword will be pointed at your direction.

Venture within the woods and the wilderness itself would turn against you.

When; Sunday, November 8th (backdated)
Rating; PG-13 for evil? Violence?
Characters; Jadis [never_christmas] and Hotaru [alldevouring]
Summary; Come closer, little girl. All I need is one drop.
Log; ( Whenever she is raging she takes a life away; )

afewksd ahaha so uh. Who didn't see this coming?

I thought I could hang on to this guy for a bit more but stuff at work came up that's made it become really hard to keep up with a game as fast as Poly, especially with someone like Firo, and I couldn't keep him as active as I'd liked him to be. So! He'll be leaving the City and returning to his bros and Family back home. :"> Thank you so much to everyone who interacted with him during his stay, I really appreciate it! 8D That said:

friend remove camoerrista here or hover-click. :>

Hopefully that will allow me to focus more on my other two characters and be less. idk fail at Poly in general jadks. <3

When; Evening of Sunday, November 8 2009
Rating; PG-13 at the very worst. There are children present.
Characters; Konata, apartmentmates, any of her friends/acquaintances who want to come.
Summary; A small party at Kona's place. Games, anime and Pocky.
Log; ( Konata had planned a party to cheer up her friends... )

Okay, you know when you've got week-old tags you just can't manage to answer, you need a teensy break from a character. Add to that the fact that my RL is absolutely insane and, well... yeah. So my sincerest apologies to those I left hanging.

That being said, Deb's gonna leave the City for a bit. Effective this morning, she was MIA and up in the Hall of the Missing.

But, she will be back. I just don't have the energy right now.

On the same basic topic, even though they're still in the City and in play right now, if tags from Wilson and Todd go spotty or slow, please bear with me~? I'm just trying to graduate next month. XD

<3333333
Rae.

CHI AND I ARE GETTING MARRIED.

Okay not really. Or not yet. But I am back. I've been backtagging around a bit, but if I've missed something you want me to hit, please let me know! And I want to know what's been going on, if I've missed something important.

Everyone is off autopilot and Syaoran will be coming back into the City either tomorrow or maybe Tuesday. There will be a post of course.

So yes, Yuuko, Syaoran, and Gwendolen are back and up to old tricks.

So as of yesterday and today, Lockon, Setsuna, Tieria, Saji, and Anew are all going around posting up and handing out these flyers in the Square.

( The flyer, IC! )

What does this mean for you OOCly? Well, Celestial Being is essentially creating a support team for helping to deal with curses. If your character is the civic-minded sort, they might want to get involved. Or they can just mock the efforts--it's up to you, of course.

None of this, of course, will put an end to the curses; it's more aimed at giving characters things to do during and about them. In other words, it's just characters doing what they can to establish some order in the chaos of the City, while knowing all the while that there will still be plenty of that chaos. Drop a line here if you have characters who'd be interested--or just go ahead and post about it IC! I know a lot of characters are already doing some of these things individually; we're just trying to open up some more CR and RP opportunities with it.

Yep, this is all mod-approved. And yes, "Curse Brigade" is a terrible name. It was thought up by a man who thought "Lockon Stratos" was a cool codename.

So this is awkward! I took a hiatus to reorganize my work schedule and ended up getting... more work. Bottom line is under this schedule, I can't find time for Poly even with only one character, so I'm going to be bowing out for now. It's been a blast playing with you all and if things calm down again (possibly after New Years) then I might be back. But for now...

9-10; War of the Worlds
The armies have assembled! Citizens who have been in wars will find themselves drafted into an army or supplied with soldiers from their own world to do their bidding. Whether that bidding is for better or worse is really up to what lies in the heart of the citizen isn't it? They must decide what they're fighting for and quickly because chances are there's probably someone else who has a takeover on the brain, and there is much to take over. The sea around the City has receded considerably, granting more land upon which battles may occur, and the Deities don't seem to care who'll win. [Deaths that result from this curse are exempt from City!Death. Destruction of parts of the forests, beaches, fields, and the mountain are allowed, however the urban area of the City including main buildings (the twelve apartment complexes, the Hospital, the Academy, etc.) are off limits to fighting. They can be patrolled and small skirmishes can erupt on the streets but homes and buildings will not be destroyed. NPC soldiers are granted as platoons of 30 soldiers per 1 character who has held a leadership position in their canon. When the curse is over, the terrain left by the receding sea will revert to their unharmed forms (because no one likes a blood stained field) and stay as permanent fixtures of the game. Yes, the island is getting bigger. There will be a post in poly_tldr with more information for players to organize cast-related armies and plot battles if they wish!]

As promised, here's a post where players may put troops together, share information on the canon types of soldiers their character has, formulate scheming agendas and what not.

( here are guidelines to keep in mind )

Once upon a time there was a family of farmers. A mother, a father and their three sons. One day the parents and the elder brothers fell ill and died, leaving the youngest son alone. The family's town took the boy in, but he heard it repeated often that they couldn't keep him in that time of famine--he even heard it suggested that his family's death was somehow his fault. "Possessed by a fox," it was said because of the color of his hair. So it was no surprise that the boy was quickly sold to a passing slave caravan the moment the chance came up.

( ooc cut for length )

[ooc; I REFUSE TO LET THIS STUPID SICKNESS STEAL ANOTHER CURSE I WANTED TO PARTICIPATE IN!!! *rabble rabble rabble* pretend this was a little earlier Also, dialogue is a bit spliced between licensed release, scanlations, the ova and whatever--because Kenshin's memory =/= carbon, lol]
