Crown Plaza IC

I've been dreaming that I've been turned into a werewolf again.  I'm not in the maze though.  Sometimes  I'm in a city, sometimes in the hotel. 

As usual with my dreams, I'm not sure what it means.  I suggest that if you find any treats or drinks in strange places, you avoid them - just in case, the hotel is going to repeat that trick.

Maybe avoid me too.

Where I come from, we're rarely allowed to remember our lost loved ones. It brings down morale, so it's against Company policy. Yet people do remember. Our Scarbacks inscribe each loss on their bodies, so the dead are never forgotten.

I know those who've left us aren't dead for the most part. hopefully and I also know the hotel may have a similar policy to that of the Company. Still I would like to attempt a memorial to those who've left us. If it's temporary, so be it.

If anyone would like to contribute with mementos or letters or picture of those gone, join me in the chapel. I'll be there until the end of the day.

Rocket time? Thought perhaps you could use a distraction.

I wonder if this is anything close to what it's like being mon calamari.

( Party Time )

Alright party people - in order to accommodate anyone needing clothing for the gala, I'll be in the Library all day tomorrow taking measurements and jotting down any ideas people might have regarding their ensemble and mask situation. If anyone would like to help out with that, or with decorating ideas, please feel free to swing on by.

[Regulus & Stephen]

Okay, so, I need you to talk me out of doing something potentially stupid, please. I know the effects the angel's blood has on witches, but I've been wondering how it might affect other magic users. I'd need volunteers, and a safe space just in case... so, should I see if anyones' interested?

I have a twin sister, and I sometimes think if we had grown up together we might have been as close as we were all forced to be this last few days. That kind of inseparable.

Even still, it's nice to have our usual version of freedom again, even if it's smaller than what a lot of us are used to. It's easy to think of this place as normal sometimes, isn't it?

I miss being amongst the stars a lot, though. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

( It was hard to recognize. He wasn't sure what it was. )

There's nothing like being bound to a complete stranger to teach us all how to exercise patience. I feel like back when I was in kindergarten and they used to pair us up and then tie one of our legs together to teach us about cooperation.

[Ben]

We're friends, right? I'm reaching out to you on a diplomatic mission to keep people we care about from making things worse between them. Outside your door, you'll find a dozen chocolate chip cookies, and an equal amount of cinnamon rolls with icing on the side.

They're a peace offering, to hopefully open negotiations regarding your Finn and my Regulus.

[Ben]

This punk kid turned my legs to jelly to keep me from leaving. If I didn't know better I'd think he'd be a perfect First Order General.

He fixed my legs, but if you come to his room and save me I'll give you anything you want. Maybe bring Ari to peck his eyes out or handle the person he keeps as a servant?

[Rey, Poe and Hux]

Please tell me none of you have to deal with this latest hotel trick? I need to borrow a blaster.

[Master Luke]

How do you handle intense anger towards someone?

Good to see this place still alive and kicking. Nothing like going back to the future and living some new memories. At least all of my science rocks are still here.

But it seems I've acquired a roommate. Hello!

Oh, Theo, you'd asked before if we knew who had turned everyone to stone. You too, Ben, I believe. We're definitely onto something now back there. I'm surprised to be back here, given all I've learned.

Could I possibly interest anyone in entertaining a small dragon for a bit? Lockheed wants to go off exploring on his own, but I've convinced him that going out with someone who isn't me could be just as fun. For reasons I can't fathom, he has no interest in learning about fencing.

I promise he's friendly, and would only hurt something if he thought he was being attacked.

Now that the endless lasagna is gone and the rain's stopped, I was thinking of trying to learn how to use the grill outside. Anyone have any tips?

You know, for a color called rum raisin, I expected it to be one of those lip-things that has a taste to it for when you kiss someone. Apparently, I was incorrect, and the rum raisin-ness is a lie.

On the other hand, that lasagna in the kitchen is pretty good.

Uhm.

Does anyone want some make up?

I don't think I've ever been hungrier in my life. Or happier to not be covered in fur and forced on all fours.

Sorry to whoever I took a chunk out of. If it's any consolation, you tasted horrible.

Either I'm hallucinating, or there's an open door in one of the trees near the trail outside. I saw it while I was out for a run. I didn't look in there, because I'm not an idiot, but someone might want to check that out.

Maybe even with weapons.
