So. I have news for everyone. And I was going to wait for the dinner with everyone and do one of those like "SURPRISE!" deals, but I have zero patience and our schedules suck.

SURPRISE! 😘

[REI]

I need to tell you something and I don't know that I can wait. 😏

[ELIJAH]

I am telling them now! 🥰

ALEE

Hey, you. I have some news.

ELIJAH

Good morning. How are you?

OCEANA

Did you know that you're officially going to be Mrs. Waters in less than a month?

When I said, "I want to stay home all weekend," I didn't mean, "I want to stay in bed sick all weekend."

All I wanted was a nice, relaxing weekend in my pj's to read and watch movies with my favorite person and favorite fur-son. It looks like it's chicken soup instead of Chinese take out, and lots of sleep.

Remember people: wash your hands like surgeons, don't touch your face, take vitamins. Viruses suck.

ZOYA

I'm completely useless this morning. I think this morning's workout was the peak of my productivity.

Guess who's having an actual wedding now? July 11, for the record. Mom's not going to know what to do with herself after the weddings are all done and over with.

Today is Make Your Dreams Come True Day, in case you didn't have enough pressure on you this January Monday. 😏

JUN

Hey. I don't suppose I can reserve you for July 11?

ELIJAH & EMBRY

Stella and I talked and we've decided that we're going to do a full blown wedding, instead of the courthouse idea that we'd been leaning towards. We're looking at July 11, if everything works out with venues. Will you guys stand up there with me? I'm going to talk to Ed about it, too.

EZRA

What are the chances you would like to be a groomsman this summer?

Two things, Dunhaven.

First thing! If you're looking for some holiday music in your future, NSO has two specifically holiday events coming up in December. We've got you covered if you want something more pops related or classical. Come check us out, if you're interested!

Second thing is that I get to start moving into the house this weekend and I can't even explain how excited that makes me.

I lied. Third thing: I hope everyone is having a lovely Tuesday. ✌🏻

STELLA

My ex and I are sharing dreams.

JUN

These dreams are the worst, man.

ELIJAH

Busy tonight?

ALEE & OCEANA - SENT SEPARATE

Good morning. ( Cut for image! )

ELIJAH

Hey. I have two things that I need to tell you.

LUKE

❤️

That's all. 😊

FRIENDS & FAMILY

Happy Tuesday! I have some fun and exciting news to share.

As some of you know, I've been working with a realtor the last month or so. I felt like it was time to plant some roots in town, outside of those that I've already made. Long story short, I fell in love with a house and after getting a highly valued second opinion, I put in an offer. And that offer was accepted!

Obviously it will still be a bit until the closing as everything gets sorted, but I'm just really excited and I wanted to share. It feels nice, like I'm actually going to be officially official. It's been just over a year since I moved down here and I've had some really good changes since then and this feels like the cherry on top.

WHO: Elijah Marshall & Zoya Nikolaeva Marshall
WHEN: Thursday, August 15, 2019; Evening
WHERE: Zoya’s house
SUMMARY: Elijah and Zoya make a decision to recommit to one another.
WARNINGS: Mentions of marital troubles, but pretty much just a lot of ♥

( It's incredibly sexy when you talk about shopping together with coupons, you know. )

Hi, everyone! Another post so soon? Thanks to Naomi's brilliant idea, I'm going to put together a resource accessible to anyone dealing with the Dreams that essentially just lists who is being dreamed of and any other pertinent details you might think need to be included for others to identify that they're at least sharing dreams about the world even if they don't know the name. For example, it might look like:

Leia Organa-Solo - From Alderaan, daughter of Breha and Bail Organa
Han Solo - Made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs, from Corellia

Just leave a note here, anonymously or not, letting me know the name of who you are dreaming about and anything else you want to mention. If you want YOUR name attached to it, as well, for shared dreamers to more easily get in touch with you, let me know. Otherwise, I'll attach your Anon ID so that others can filter you anonymously!

This is totally optional, but I hope you'll consider doing it, at least anonymously!

TEXTS TO ELI

-- How's Vacation Part 1 treating you?
-- Do you miss me yet?
-- Also could I maybe have that mini fridge in the garage?

TEXTS TO ISAIAH

-- Well.
-- Looks like dorm life, it is.
-- I am now spending my day off packing.
-- I hate procrastination.

TEXTS TO NAOMI, later

-- I think we're going to need wine tonight, too. LOTS of wine.

It's Monday and I feel as though everyone could use a bit of a boost to their karma or vibes or whatever the heck you want to call it, so here's my wish to you all, stolen from this person that I don't know, but I'm sure is famous somehow: ( Cut for image! )

Feel free to customize that in such ways as to personally fit your life, but just know I'm rooting for you -- because I know everyone out there wants a former New Yorker violinist in their corner. ✌🏻

In case you didn't already know, today is the most special of days because, on this day many years ago, the one and only Everett Marshall was born. Since they have yet to acknowledge my petition to make the celebration of his birth a national holiday, I'm taking it upon myself to invite all of you Dunhavenians to help me honor this wonderful, beautiful, compassionate, and all-around standup guy by coming in to Stella's today for one of two specials.

The first is the #boyfriend which is two liege waffles topped with Nutella, fresh berries, whipped cream, cookie butter, and chocolate drizzle.

The second is the Birthday Babe which is a large waffle boat with birthday cake, two large scoops of whipped cream, strawberry and chocolate drizzle, chopped pecans, celebratory sprinkles, and two cherries on top.

Better yet, 100% of profits from these two specials will be donated to Voices for Virginia's Kids in Everett's name. ❤️

So please come see us! And even if you're not feeling Stella's Famous Waffles today, don't forget to wish this handsome man the happiest birthday. 😊😊

Time for another anon post, if you're so inclined to jump in. Your responses can, as always, be public or anonymous, whichever makes you most comfortable.

Is there anyone from your other life that you wish was here with you, that you could see and talk to in whatever capacity? Assume for the purpose of this post that your response does not come with the unintended consequence of wishing dreams/memories on another individual. This just piggybacks off of the last post when we talked about things you wish you could say to someone back there, or here.

ZOYA

I think, tonight, I need to go for a run and then just [...] do nothing until I have to get up for work tomorrow. Can we do nothing together later?

ELIJAH

Do you have time this week to hang out with your dorky brother?

ELIJAH

Hey.
