Half Past Midnight

Who: Kierban and Davie
Where: The main hall
When: Anesus 5, noonish

Kierban hated full moon nights. The moon had already risen and set (although the raging storm concealed the fact) but that didn’t change the fact that he always felt a little more miserable when the full moons were soon to come or recently passed. It didn’t even matter if the moon was his own or not, because every luminous orb invoked the same sorrow and melancholy. They were reminders of his childhood days when people had actually cared for him.

Who: Davie, Harlan, and Elanna
When: Anesus 5, 12:30 am
Where: Starting in his room, but out and about

Once Davie had managed to get himself upstairs and to a decent meal, he decided the best thing to do with the rest of the day would be to sit in his room and hope the stairs returned to their place before the next day. He could live on one meal a day, and for now that's what he thought was easiest, but if he had to figure out new kinds of devices every time he had to get between his room and the kitchen, he was going to go nuts. As for the time he spent sitting in his room, it was mostly dedicated to flipping through the magic book he had borrowed from Cathryn and making small attempts at practice. He had told himself that he would stay awake until half past midnight so he would know what had happened, but around eleven or so, he was starting to change his mind. He hadn't gotten a decent night's sleep yet in this place, and that meant he was tired. He collapsed into bed at about half past eleven, deciding that the things that had happened so far hadn't been especially urgent, and whatever else was going to disappear tonight, he would find out in the morning.

WHO: Davie and Ryder
WHEN: Anesus 4, 11 am
WHERE: Where the basement staircase should be.

When Davie awake, he could only wonder at the time. At home, he had been an early riser, taking advantage of the hour or two he had usually had before too many other people were up and active. Here, it seemed, weird happenings at late hours and a tendency to stay up even later because of them seemed to be shifting his schedule. Thinking on which, he hadn't noticed anything especially strange happening last night. Maybe he wasn't one of the people affected by it. If that was really the case, so much the better.

Who: Davie and Cathryn
Where: In his room, at least to begin with (Basement block 13, room 3)
When: Anesus 3, 12:30 am

Davie lay awake, staring at the ceiling. He was tired, certainly, and he had planned to get to bed significantly earlier than he had the night before. Much as he had actually enjoyed the conversation he had had with Cathryn in the courtyard, he would rather not make a habit of being awake at such hours. Right now, he could almost brings himself to fall asleep, but not quite. The rumors of undescribed 'tests' occurring at half past midnight were enough to deter any level of slumber. He wouldn't let himself sleep until he could be sure it wouldn't put him in danger.

Who: Davie and Cathryn
When: Anesus 2, After the meeting for the new arrivals
Where: In the Courtyard

When Davie had made his way to the evening's large meeting, he had wished he could go to bed instead. Now the meeting was over, rules had been explained, chores had been assigned, people had very vaguely met each other, and Davie found himself frustratingly awake. He had actually gone back to his room long enough to lay down for about a minute before deciding that he wasn't able to keep his eyes shut even that long and would be better served familiarizing himself with the complex.

Who: Tayne and OPEN TO ALL
Where: Anesus 2, The main hall
When: Shortly after sunset

Though Tayne had been early, other people had been earlier still. There had been a small variety of people already in the great hall-- including a few "repeats"; he recognized poor Kierban, shooting him a little wave, though he didn't expect to get one back, and the sight of Remy already waiting made him want to groan, though he didn't. That Vrykola had made trouble for Torehl the whole year previous, and he had a feeling the spoiled brat was going to cause him no end of trouble, as well.
