vallo

Just found my gym on my run this morning. Almost makes up for everything else.

Hi, for those of you I haven’t met yet, I’m Josie Saltzman and I have a question for the masses. Well, two, really.

- fellow teens, which school do you go to and what do you like about it? I’m looking for pro/con list material here. Anything that might help me narrow down which one is right for me, I guess.

- this one is really for anyone to answer – my sister and I will be having a birthday in a couple of weeks. We just had one at home, but we decided we wanted to just have kind of a do-over birthday and maybe have a party, but we’re both so new here, so suggestions on where we could throw a party would be really awesome since we’re really still learning out way around here.

i guess daddy-o one uped us. somehow?

dick, you better be here because if i'm stuck here alone, i am going to be so pissed.

and where the hell are my swords?

Is this an essence of hobbit phoenix side effect? Becaue I did not sign up for this acid trip down the rabbit hole hidden in the wardrobe to a multiverse of nerdville. At least it's not the '80's again.

I was accepted into Geliara, which is pretty exciting. It will be weird walking to a class to learn about potions instead of chemistry, but there are probably some similarities there? This is really hap I start tomorrow.

I also woke up to my keyboard and my bass in my room, so thanks for that one, Vallo I guess. Would it kill you to sen

For those of you that attend Fight Club, is there anything you'd like to see? 2v2 fights? Adding in blindfolds or obstacles in the ring? Would it be something you would be interested in occasionally? Or keep Fight Club the same as it always is on its normal evening, but add in an extra for various other events?

We're always looking to keep it interesting and improve, so please feel welcome to voice any suggestions.

To those of you that are newer arrivals, my brother Jacob and I run The Underground, a training club in the warehouse district. During the day, we offer classes and one-on-one training in several forms of hand-to-hand combat, and (usually) the third Saturday of every month is an evening fight club event. Sign up ahead of time, put your name in a hat, and be paired with someone random in the ring. It has a cash prize, there's a full bar and you can gamble away at your heart's greatest desire.

And to add onto that, I had an idea for next month? Valentine's Day is approaching and people might like to do something with significant others or friends and maybe even like our normal pairings? But the idea I had was to do a Pillow Fight Club for that evening, pair people off or let them sign up together, supply the pillows and decorate the ring.

If that's too ridiculous, I expect you all to tell me so I can bin the idea before I purchase two dozen pillows.

Hi, I'm Archie. And I guess I'm new, sort of? New to this Vallo at least.

I just, I really wanted to say thank you to everyone who helped get us out of there. You guys didn't have to but you did and I'm sure I'm not the only one who really appreciates that.

Also I'm pretty sure it's a long shot since I haven't seen them yet, but has anyone seen some of my friends around here? Jughead, Veronica, Betty?

I'm looking to get regular training sessions going again for those who are interested. From experienced fighters to beginners, I'm going to get them going Monday, Wednesday and Friday starting at 7am before patrols shift start at 9am. We'll use the same clearing that Steve had originally been using. Anyone who's interested, let me know.

So I know we all show up here pretty randomly, can we get sent back the same way? My friend is - missing? I guess? Except he wouldn't take off without telling and I've checked all the places he would be.

Are there other days with specific colour schemes like this, in this place?

Completely forget it was Valentine's Day until I just saw a guy propose to a lamp post on my coffee run. So drink specials? 8pm onward for all you who'd rather pretend it's just another Friday night. Most ridiculous story about an ex gets free drinks all night.

Hello. I'm Shiro. Captain of the. I'm still wrapping my head around this but at least strange realities aren't new. Hopefully I haven't been replaced with a clone this time.

Anyway, I've made a surprise friend and I was hoping somebody could tell me if they belong to this guy?

( OOC cut for image. )

I really wasn't expecting to see him anytime soon but Salem found me while I was getting my mocha. Which is great because its really weird not having your familiar around.

And now for the important question: who wants to go exploring in the woods tonight?

I'm Gansey, I arrived yesterday, followed by two of my friends. I have unfortunately had time to drink coffee and contemplate the universe and my existence therein for twenty-four hours, now, which just leaves me with more questions that I know have no right answer.

But I do have a few that I hope will be answerable: Are there any rules and restrictions to exploring the forest? Are there areas that are off-limits? Does the same currency work in the forest as the city? I'm sure I'll come up with more, given half a chance, but I greatly appreciate the knowledge put forward already.

[GANGSEY]

There's karaoke tonight, apparently. It's in the city, at a popular bar, and could be a good way to observe both locals and people stuck here like us.

Introduction posts are the worst. Though slightly better than the annual 'what did you do for your summer break' paper.

Too much to hope for someone to be holding out on a loophole to head back home? I've got a boyfriend to free and Hell to destroy.

But, right. Sabrina Spellman. Favorite horror movie?

So I realised I never actually introduced myself on this network. I'm Jughead, I know. I look like Eddie. it's weird. We could be twins. But I'm cool with it, it's not a big deal. As far as doppelgangers go, it could be worse, right? Eddie's a good guy.

Anyway. I'm Jughead. No that's not my real name, but it's my name. It started a long time ago, and it just stuck. I wear a beanie, pretty much all the time. I like hamburgers and milkshakes. I've been here about a month, I guess. Still kind of in shock about it all, but I'm here.

So that's it. That's my into. Hi.

Okay Eds, how would Bill do this? I'm so not leader material Hey. For anyone I haven't bugged yet, I'm Eddie. This is only my second round of Doctor Who shit, but since we're looking at a fucked up Scooby-Doo situation here, statistically speaking (and from personal experience), we're in the most danger. I know most of you can handle yourselves, but I still think it'd be a good idea to meet up and start putting names to faces. We could use an actual plan in case shit hits the fan—safehouses, maybe some stockpiling, that kind of thing.

If you're in, meeting's at Morningside Manor tomorrow night. Maybe. Bev, you down for hosting? I can handle food.

[ ooc: i'm leaving the age question up to y'all. if you want your character involved, jump in! ]

GED/HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS & GLADIO.

I'm Vanya Hargreeves, and I'm one of your fellow Outlanders who has signed up to help you guys finish school here. I'll be covering Literature/English, History/Social Studies, and offering a Music elective. Gladio will be covering Maths, Sciences, and a Physical Education elective. I'll let him do his own introduction.

I'm a violist, First Chair in an orchestra here in the city, which was also my career in my original reality. I was also a violin instructor. My undergraduate was in music, I'm a published author, and my education before university was extensive.

It would help me if you could let me know what you were working on at school previously, where your interests and goals are, and if you have any interest in the music elective. As long as numbers stay small I can easily work on custom lesson plans for each of you.

We're aiming to have everything up and running soon, and classes will mostly be in the morning so everyone can still have time for work. Caroline has secured some office space for us, and we'll make sure you receive all of the information in the next few days.

the doa really needs to work on that welcoming committee.

I didn't want to have to do this Dammit So I could use a little help. Anyone with experience taking down monsters—or who can lend a hand evacuating people from the village near the forest—now's your time. A creature from my world came through one of the Waypoints. He's big, and he's pretty pissed off. I'm trying to keep him contained with magic, but I won't be able to hold this barrier for much longer. And it's reacting strangely with the crystals Gods, as if they didn't freak me out before

As for everyone else, you should be fine if you stay within the city limits. I'll publish a more official report on all this later so you know when it's safe to head out again.
