blackpoint - the au community

According to a Hawaiian landlord, my female counterpart has decided that the home I helped sign on for is a great place to keep assorted meats, and that the furniture it came with would be better purposed if it were destroyed and remade into something different.

Anyone want deer or a nice end table?

Keelah. Not this again!

This may be the third cutest thing I've ever seen.


In order to compete with Apple (and have them sue me because that's what they like to do. They get very unhappy with my competition.) I'm releasing a new version of my communication omni-tool on Monday. I offer them to any portal inhabitants at no cost provided you offer me feedback and test new programs for me.

For the more spy/combat minded people, I'm starting beta testing on cloaking software and disruptor ammo, and could use a few extra volunteers to use them.

Okay, so just give it a thought, but...

Dancing with the Stars with Blackpoint Celebrities. I can PR the shit out of that for charity. I need a distractio-

Clearly, public appearances are paying off, as my client list has grown substantially in the last week, both on the jewelry and smithing fronts. (One attempted to commission me to make a replica of an Elvish crown, of all things.) Keeping my windows open to relieve some of the heat in the room has also afforded me a rather grouchy looking stray cat who tends to lay in my sill and glare at me while I work.

Much as it pains my pride to say it, I may need an apprentice. At the very least, someone to keep the cat from staging an attack.

I don't usually attend these sorts of things, but I've been invited to an event in New York that, I'm told, could serve as good networking. Considering that I'm still in the process of getting my work back into common knowledge now that I've been transported back in time, I supposed it would be a good chance to further that. Anyone have a pressing desire to dress me? Or, equally importantly, attend at my side? I'm sure that my tastes in fashion, evolved to fit the modern world as they are, are hardly appropriate for something so classy, and I am definitely in need of someone charming to attend alongside me given my tendency to come off a bit gruff.

Well! I suppose now it's official!

be warned that i will stab through the heart of any man who stands in the way of my return to my people

How do I have an almost-one-year-old? Seriously, anytime someone tells you the horror stories of having a toddler and how much havoc they can wreak and you just laugh them off (been that person all my life) alksfaljglj omfg they're all so accurate now.

HEY that said, Children's Museum of Arts, next weekend. 2-5pm. There's a ball pond and you're supposed to "dress for a mess" because the birthday project is a giant collaborative mural with like finger and hand and feet and body painting. :D

I hadn't realized until recently that dropping back in time meant that there was still a film left. It seems I've acquired an enthusiastic stalker.

You'd think the lack of hair and beard would serve as a better disguise.

I need some individuals with public exposure to wear some pieces of mine. Since I'm having to restart my business, I need to ask those favours.

I've finished both the ring and the reforging of the remaining sword. How would you like me to return them to you?

Ah, this again. As much as I've come to expect the happenings related to the portal, starting this process over was not something I anticipated.
