ic notes and random gab

Darlings, are we done? I feel like it's done. Spent too long on the out-of-control carousel that is the occasional magical hiccup here in Preya and I was starting to feel a little motion sick from it all. I spent most of today scrubbing the ick off me because one of you lovelies hasn't invented brain bleach yet, but I think I'm good now.

Are you good, Preya? Let me know how you're all doing, sometimes we could all do with talking things out.

In my case, I'd like to say how disappointed I am. Satan is generally supposed to be sexy, right? You see him often depicted as a gorgeous blonde in a suit. Usually a white suit, martini glass in his hand. Well groomed, suave, and an air of amused superiority. Getting up close to him is supposed to feel like swimming with a shark, knowing that he could destroy you if he wanted but he won't because he's above all of that. That dangerous, sexy vibe, you know? Well, I've met two Satans now, maybe three if you squint. None of them have measured up.

Are my expectations too high?

Well, I'm alive, barely. To the owners of the Club Luna establishment, I'd apologise about the mess but it would have been worse had I not been there. More human remains splattered against the walls. I've sent you a cheque that should well and truly cover the clean up.

Turns out, anyone can pray to an angel. Even a demon.

To the (NPC) families, you have my sincere condolences. Lucifer killed a lot of people, but I got a lot of people out of that nightclub, saved a lot of lives. That should count for something.

I'm fine. Don't be mad. I'm not at my house, I'm staying with Michael at his hotel. Not exactly five star living, but I don't really care. I'm healing up slowly but surely. If you could stop by my house and feed my dogs, that would be lovely.

Least he's got a decent TV. When I heal up a bit better, I'm going to spruce up the place.

It was a little embarrassing though. I passed out, and when I got here, I was pretty much cuddling up to him. I don't think he mentioned it. I already feel like Whitney Houston as it is, and he's Kevin Costner. Mind you, Kevin Costner's taller than he is. He's shorter than me.

Nearly got my skull cracked open like a walnut, that wasn't fun. But I'm a stubborn son of a whore, you know me.

If I find out who let that feathered prat in this realm I am going to flay him and burn him alive.

If I survive what I'm about to do, I'm going to need a bloody drink, or perhaps a medal of valor.

[Warded to Team Free Will]

Lucifer's out on the prowl. He's been leaving a trail of red through Preya. If you've got a plan, you better share it with me quick because I'm about to stick my neck out for a friend.

And I'm not talking about any of you.

[Filtered away from Lucifer]

I would like to assure everyone that while Lucifer's sudden appearance might be upsetting to some of you, the situation is under control and you have nothing to fear.

Good Morning Preya!

Look at how intact this place still is. Look at how alive you all are. The last time I saw some of you, you were just piles of ash. Gotta say, I'm torn on which was the better look for you, Pompeii-chic is just so in right now. Or it will be. Some of you should definitely stop by if you want to get on the trend before everybody else.

You should have seen the look on big brother's face when he realized I was real. I don't think he'll be able to sleep for a week, not that he sleeps. But don't worry about him, Mikey will be fine. As much of a dump as his place is, he's got nice big closets. I threw him into the nicest one while he rides out his little fit in peace. I even introduced him to a few new show tunes and got him a bib to catch some of that drool. I'm taking great care of him, he should be fine in a few days.

I'm still tickled that he's playing cops and robbers, by the way. A+ to the RPD for putting a badge on the biggest, bluntest tool in the shed. Like using a nuke instead of a hammer, but I guess when you're driving nails into your own coffin it doesn't really matter, does it?

Also, you wouldn't believe what is in Mikey's phone. He's been consorting with demons! Dead ones. Can you believe that? For shame! Next thing you know he'll be wearing flannel and start trying to talk like he's gargling rocks to make his voice deeper. But don't worry, I know exactly how to help shield my poor, impressionable big bro from such negative influences.

Do you... regret?

What we did, opening Purgatory. Do you regret it?

Do you regret anything at all?



[Balthazar]

Have you ever used a hot tub before?

Really, if you’re not laying around, listening to Wasteland, Baby! over and over again until it soaks into you and you’re sure you either want to escape into the woods and become a forest lesbian or slow dance with your lover on a deserted beach at midnight, what are you doing with your life?

Cold snap's coming up. Pretty sure there's going to be a blizzard on the way. Better batten down the hatches, or rug up. Having created a few storms myself, I know how to read them.

Oscar and Growley are still wanting to go on daily walks. Is there a particular time of the day or a place to go dog walking where it won't be too crowded? Oscar tends to get a little bit nervous around crowds, and Growley's very protective.

Moose, do you happen to know of any good places?

How are you handling having Heaven's Quarterback in Preya? I'm keeping an eye on things, guess you could call me your man on the inside. He's hardly got any concerns with you or your lot though, seems to just want to do his police work.

Not that I am speaking in my official capacity here but I would like to remind the general population that while the 14th may be a day of love for most of you, that does not mean laws regarding public exposure and public indecency will be waived. Please show some respect for yourself, your partner(s) and your fellow citizens by celebrating the holiday without engaging in any inappropriate conduct while in public.

Is this thing even recording well I guess I'll figure it out if I don't hear a beep at the end okay guys hey my name is aqueous. I'm a demon and I live in Summer bridge. And I've been going to the abacus institute over there. Yeah uh I've been here for about a week sorry if I ever run into any of you and haven't really said anything. I can't really see you or I guess see if you wanted to initiate conversation. Well I can hear you guys off of this so if you wanted to talk or something then just let me know. Anyway yeah so I guess to tie it off my name is aqueous I live in Summer bridge I look forward to conversing with you all. Well I guess we'll see if this is f****** recorded or if it's just a blank box

I understand it is a role that one asks someone else to fulfill for them, but... what exactly does a valentine do?

Hey, so... I just showed up here and someone suggested I get familiar with this network thing.

So here I am, getting familiar.

I'm Magnus Chase, by the way.

Anyone know where Preya is in the Nine Realms?

If I see one more stylised heart, candied or otherwise, in my vicinity, I'm going to set something on fire.

WHAT DEMON CREATED THIS?

WHY?

WHAT DID WE EVER DO TO YOU?

GOD? ARE YOU THERE?

JESUS?

[Backdated to before his previous entry because I forgot like a dumbass]

I hate February. The blatant consumerism, the excessive chocolate, the manipulation in the market, the way people pander to the most ridiculous of bargains, all for material goods...

Who am I kidding? I love February. It's being alone I can't stand.

Somebody threw a snowball at me today. Rude. If I weren't semi-reformed, there'd be consequences for that.

[Warded to Castiel, Sam and friends of Dean Winchester, but away from Dean Winchester obviously]

Hey. Dumbnuts. Eyes up here. You know what month it is, right? January. January as in January 24th, the day Dean Winchester was born.

Are you doing anything for his birthday? I've already got my gift planned.

We should do something for him. I know he's been here longer than I have and has already had good birthdays here but it's a new year and he's still a moron but he's still my best friend and if you aren't doing anything then I might just rethink about that whole 'reformed' bit.

Let me know.

Well, the Royal Rumble's coming up. Yes, I'm a demon and I enjoy wrestling. I've watched it since they used to wrestle each other (and occasionally lions) naked. Good times. But I digress. If I weren't here I'd take advantage of the all-access passes to the event, but since I'm not...

Anyone fancy having a night in to watch the show? I'll provide refreshments, hell we can probably get a bit of a wager going on who you think will win. If Finn Balor doesn't walk out champion, I'm going to set something on fire. But I've got a brilliant television and sound set up, it'll almost feel like you're actually there.

Any takers? Leave the rock salt at the door, thanks.

[Castiel]

Had a wonderful conversation with your brother today. You know, about yea high, daddy issues, Archangel?

You can stop having heart palpitations, I didn't ring Lucifer, I rang Gabriel.

So when I first got here they told me to introduce myself and have fun. So here it is I guess. Hello everyone, you can call me Oberon, most people want to anyway.

[Filtered to anyone who knows Sam Winchester]

Oh, I hope I'm doing this right. I have Sam Winchester for my Secret Santa exchange. Would someone know what I could get for him. I'm not really familiar with this holiday. Is there anything else I need to do?

Thank you so much for your help.

[Private to Natsu]

The town is so nicely decorated for this festive holiday. Do you think we should decorate our place too? I'm not sure what this holiday really is about, but it's sure put me in a nice mood.

Holy shit, I just had a thought. You know how like, some people here, their lives are like fictional in other places? But like, we show up here, and surprise, everyone's real! What if Santa Clause is real? What if he shows up here, like legit? I mean, it's gotta kinda suck living at the North Pole all year, right?

....What if he's already here??

...Santa?
