[ In the club, the bar was having a busy day! Dozens of glasses litter the surface of the counter, all of various sizes and styles, and all filled with drinks spanning the whole color spectrum (but mostly red). There was a screwdriver, a bloody mary, an appletini, fruit punch and vodka, spiced mead, strawberry daiquiri, pina colada, ... heck, you name it; it's probably there!

The thing is, no one was actively drinking. The only sign that they've been touched at all was a streak along the inside edge of the each, and the fact they were all pushed to the side, leaving a bare space in front of one of the stools.

Terezi wasn't at the counter, though -- she had finished overloaded her new senses enough for a while. She was lying on her back in the middle of the dance floor, with herarms and legs spread out. She could sense the colored lights strobing, bouncing, and flickering this way and that. She could feel the thumping of the music through every bone in her body this way.

Every once in a while, she'll giggle, grinning toothily with a teal flush on her cheeks. ] Heeheehee~ Thiss... thiss iss awessome~!

Sorry to bother everyone who's busy enjoying their new appendages or ability to turn things inside-out, but I just wanted to inform everyone that the Philosophy and Literature classes originally offered by Beatrice have been revised a little now that I'm taking them over. For one thing, they're going to be held in Classroom 1 [instead of outdoors, in the park, like animals] and I've adjusted the dates and times. There shouldn't be any schedule conflicts, but feel free to check -- the signup sheets are in the usual place.

If you want to ask me any questions or offer any suggestions for the classes, please feel free.

[He's been in Classroom 1 since breakfast, in fact, moving things around and moving in boxes of books for his first classes, and then preparing his syllabi. You can find him there if you want. But first--]


[//encrypted// private to Richie]
[neutrally] I don't suppose you're so quiet because you're preparing a confession?

( A Waking Dream )

[Accidentally Open]

A-A-Allen! Lavi! Something--I-I--I mean--S-Someone--[She looks very worried and confused and maybe just a little hysterical.] Wh-What happened last night? D-Did I go drinking a-and not remember? ...I-Is someone playing a-a joke on me?

Wh-Why am I d-dressed like this?

[Anyone who would disturb Ciel in his sleep during the morning will quickly notice that he is not there. He, having woke up earlier than normal, noticed something absolutely terrible about his appearance.

His head, his back...

They all bore the features of a cat.

So off the little boy crept, out of his mansion and to the streets of the dome. Once there he tries, in vain, to hide from the people who might/would laugh at him. Or hug him, or any other embarrassing thing. He's badly dressed because he dressed himself rather than having his butler do it like normal.]

Wh-why a cat of all thing-- Ah...

Ah...

AH-CHOO!

[Sadly, it is hard to hide from the public when one was allergic to oneself.]

[[OOC: Hurrhurr. I've been quite sick. Sorry for the delay on this~

Also, for my dear absent cast-mates...
I thoroughly expect backtagging. ♥]]

[Filtered to Zero Kiryuu and Yuuki Kuran.]

[The fact that this is filtered to his children only and he's not aiming to embarrass them in front of the entire world is enough to show that this is a serious matter. Added to the fact that his face is filled with a serious expression AS WELL as the matter that his eyes are glowing bright red.]

[He knows that his kids are likely to cause a small uproar upon his next words, but there isn't much else he can do.]

The gas seems to have affected me negatively. [Kind of quieter than normal.] Might you two happen to have spare blood tablets?

[Saki's day has gone from bad to worse. Having, in no particular order: spilled coffee all over herself, spilled tea all over herself, destroyed three mugs and two plates beyond repair, rendered two sweatshirts unwearable in futile attempts to change into something clean, twisted her ankle in an attempt to get her shoes off without touching them, and has not had a single cigarette. all. day.]

[Oh yeah, and she's still sick.]

[She's huddled in the corner of her room at the shelter now, a misshapen blanket curled over her shoulders, but that doesn't mean she can't find people to take her anger out on distract her from her misery.]

So, did anyone else wake up with powers? [That's the sound of complete and utter defeat, ladies and gentleman.]

So, apparently everyone isn't naked. I just see them that way.

[ Oh boy, is she amused by this. ]



((ooc: C.C.'s super power is the "see you naked" type of X-Ray vision. If you've wandered around the apartment building in Sector 4, have been near the pizza shop or the picnic tables in the park so far today, chances are very good you've been peeped on.))

[ Chuck is out on patrol this fine -- albeit weird -- afternoon! Sarah had seemed kind of tired today, so he's letting her sleep. It would have been fun to just spend most of the day in bed curled up with her, but he does have a job to do -- and more than likely if he'd tried she would have told him to go anyway. But he's in a pretty good mood, more or less.

Actually, he's really sort of on Cloud Nine and definitely not paying as close attention as he should. ]


((ooc: Chuck is wandering the prison, so feel free to encounter him! His superpower is post-cog via touch. If someone touches him or he touches him or her, he will see something that happened in that person's past. It can be some deep, dark secret event or as simple as the person having breakfast that morning; anything at all! The person will know, however, that he's seen it, and will see it as well. Anyone have any suppressed memories they want their characters to know about? XD))

[There's a picture of Yuuki that pops up onto the screen. She's sitting beneath a tree---that looks as though it's decayed. So does the grass beneath her. She's sitting on the ground, legs folded up against her so that she's hugging her knees. Lips pouting dryly her expression is averse and reluctant as she sits laggardly.

Her voice is diffident as she speaks.]

Something isn't right today. I'm staying out tonight. It's best if no one comes to find me, either.

[Yuuri is at the beach and beaming.]

Hey! Who wants a water park?

[Now he sets the device down to get a larger shot and demonstrates his new no-maou-mode-necessary water powers! He brings a dragon-shaped mass of water up and lets it dance around for all to see!]

[ it started early this morning, but he didn't really notice until about two hours ago, when his clothes were noticeably ill-fitting. unfortunately, by that point the shrinking had sped up considerably -- and now he's less than a foot tall.

feel free to investigate the pile of rumpled clothing in the park and discover a tiny, tiny Suzaku within its folds. he'll stop shrinking when he's roughly the size of a mouse, but he already looks like a doll and the communicator is much more difficult to use.

he wants to get back to his house, but he's not sure how to go about it -- and, technically, a little bit naked right now. ]

Does anyone know what's causing these changes?

[The thought enters his mind that he should get something to write with if there is anything useful. Thought immediately turns to deed as pen and paper fly across the room and settle down before him. Sam jerks back, realizing he'd done that.]

NO!

[He extends a hand as if trying to banish the unsuspecting pen and paper and emotionally charged as he is he ends up sending them and the table they were on flying across the room—eyes turning completely black as he does so.]

[Later, when he's calmed down a little he opens a private channel.]

[Private to Sasha]
Sasha, hey... [Hopes you didn't see that, but his voice is still troubled.] I think we should postpone meeting with everything going on today.


(OOC: Backdated to before noon. Sam is noticeably telekinetic today with a side of black eyes—demon-style! He is in the educational center.)

Oh, darling~ [You know who you are.]

Are you ready?

What the hell is going on? Are you people serious?

Most importantly, why not me too?! How lame, not including everyone! I want to have some sort of super power too! Kaoru and I would have a lot of fun with super powers!

[POUTS]

[ Now that she had taken a short nap, Jeanne's headache had vanished. All she probably needed was some water, and rest, and time to clear her head. It was good, since she still had stuff to do today, despite Josak's concerns. Staying cooped up at home all day wasn't good, and this way she could give Saya a bit of space, too.

And shopping was a good way to de-stress! Jeanne was at the convenience store picking up items for the new condo. A few lamps would really brighten up the darker corners, maybe some coasters for the kitchen counter, or a napkin holder for the dining room, or even some picture frames--

Hmm. After a moment, she flicks on her communicator, since she just can't seem to find something. ]

[ Video ]

Does anyone have a camera? I'm trying to find them in the store, but I'm having a heck of a time. I don't even know if Acumen stocks something like that...

((ooc: Jeanne's power for the day~ Ever want to really hear what she's thinking? Now's the chance!))

((EDIT: if you all could tag with your proximity to Jeanne at the store, that would be awesome. ♥ Then I know who can hear her thoughts outright.))
