ic notes and random gab

What happens to the kids who show up here? Like, little kids and teenagers who are used to living at home with their parents and then suddenly their parents are gone and they don't know anyone and they can't leave because this place is like a giant cage and everything sucks. Where do they go?

Some dude grabbed my ass after I refused to buy a wilted looking rose from him and I think he might regret that after I punched him in the face.

Can it be tomorrow so I can have cheap V-day chocolate, please??

PSA

What he says: "You know, Jaybird, we're totally drift compatible."

What you think he means: We've been best friends for years. Worked together for years. We know everything there is to know about each other. We've been there for each other again and again. Some married couples aren't as close as we are. Isn't it great?

What he probably actually means: I want to build a giant robot.

Is there like... an invisible wall surrounding this place? Because I'm pretty sure I ran into it and that's totally not cool, you know? They should warn people.

WHY THE FUCK DID I THINK IT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO PLAY DOKI DOKI LITERATURE CLUB IN A DARK ROOM AT FUCKING NIGHT?! WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME?

Well, nothing to make you question your life choices like horror video games way past midnight. Alone. In the dark. During a live stream too.

Where you're just reading some text as an anime girl gives you a blank stare for 45 minutes.

짜증나!!

'Is there a god? Well someone is controlling me in this game so there must be a god that's controlling you out there in the game of life' FUCK YOU I DON'T NEED TO THINK ABOUT THINGS LIKE THAT!

I need my Impulse~♥

Who saw how awesome Bart did at the Turkey Trot? MY MAN DID AWESOME! ♥ Y'ALL BETTER RECOGNIZE HIS SPEEDSTER GOODNESS!

Seeing him do well cheered me up, especially after that bullshit I saw at the gaming bar! ♥♥

Now... WHO THE FUCK HACKED INTO THE SCOREBOARD? NO ONE BEATS MY HIGH SCORE!

So. Thanksgiving is next week, I figure dinner is in order. Bird and all that stuff. Anyone's welcome, I just need a headcount so I know if I need to accommodate anyone.

I'm sure some of you know this is for you, but it's open for whoever if you've got nothing to do or just want some free food. If there's enough we can potluck, or I can be generous and figure it out. Whatever you want. Bring a friend, or more than a friend. No point in being alone unless you want to.

I'm in Summerbridge, but you don't have to be from around here if you don't mind coming.

The trees are going to sleep.

I imagine it must be pleasant, being a tree.

I've started decorating for Christmas.

I'm only a tiny bit ashamed.

Silence is so boring after a while, and I have spent far too long in silence.

I have spent some time in quiet observation. As fascinating as this place is, it is a pity that you all seem to somehow drag your human trivial problems with you, proudly displaying them like strutting peacocks. Such pretty things, such short lives... And yet you waste what little time you have with meaningless, mundane debates, tedious interests and fuel your dulled brains with mediocrity. The affairs of humanity are hardly of interest to me, not really. Why should they? But here we are...

Preya...

I know some of you chose to come here. Some of you did not. This place, unlike it's residents, is quite interesting... Very interesting indeed. I should quite like to call it my own.

Now, after all that, do I really need to introduce myself?

To everyone that found candy outside of their residence next to their pumpkins - do not eat it.

Do not eat candy if you do not know where it came from and do not eat Halloween candy until you check it first.

Why do I need to give this message out still?If anyone must ask why, it's because you do not know who is handling the candy or if there is something wrong with it. Between friends or among people you know is one thing. First pumpkins pop up, now candy?

...Either way, if any adverse reactions are caused by said candy, you can visit me at my office or message me and something can be arranged. Thank you.

Is this Preya... Am I safe here...?

I wish Marin was here...

Anyone know any good place to buy rare books.

I've seen a few different sellers around town, but does anyone know the best place to go for archery equipment?

So uh, anyone know that that weird noise was earlier? Was it some sort of tornado warning thingy or something?

What's up amigo? Heard ya could maybe use a hand taking a look around for some folks?

I am very frustrated. When I ordered "Halloween" shaped cookie cutters, most of the ones that arrived were easily identifiable; pumpkin, bat, broomstick, cat, ghost... but I have another cutter that I cannot figure out.

Can anyone provide assistance?

I think it's time for a wine and movie night. Something to draw into the season. Maybe an Addams Family double-feature?

Since I've had a few folks asking, and because I have more finite plans now:

I hope you're all saving the date on October 29th, because you haven't lived if you haven't been to a Stark Party.

My party planner assures me that Halloween kitsch is a good time, so prepare yourselves for bizarrely themed food and drink. Bloody Marys will be available for those still hung over from any festivities that were going on the morning of or day prior.

Costumes are optional but I'll judge you if you don't have one.

So, what's everyone going to be for Halloween?

Man this place is so freaking cool! I mean, it could def use like a few more places to eat, but all in all, it will totes work!
