Age of Miracles

Who: Everyone attending Peter and MJ's wedding!
When: Thursday afternoon, from 2:30 onward
Where: Xavier school, out by the lake and boathouse.. oh, and there's a gazebo, too. Because we now say so.
What: Krim and I might actually write the ceremony bit at a different point, but here's the open thread for the reception! Lots of people will be there, some people are probably going to get thrown into the lake... you know how it goes.


( That was it? )

Who: Aubrey Ryan, Kasey Gibson, and anyone else at the school -- you don't HAVE to tag this, but this is a school-wide event that everyone who's at the school tonight will experience whether or not you tag it----so it's journal entry fodder, too
When: 3 AM, Sunday morning, April 20, 2008
Where: Backyard of Xavier's School
What: FIRE ALARM. And no, kittens, it's not a drill!


( it's getting hot in here, so take off all your clothes )

Who: Artie Maddicks and Jean-Paul Beaubier
Where: The mansion
When: April 4th, 2008
What: Artie makes good on his promise and brings JP back his clothes.

( Are those Birkenstocks? Is Artie a dirty hippy? )

Who: Artie Maddicks and Betsy Braddock.
When: Backdated to April 2nd, 2008. Sometime in the evening.
Where: The bathroom between rooms 402 and 403, the Xavier Institute.
What: Betsy's experience with her first load of laundry did not go well. In fact, one might even argue that it went fairly terribly. Which is why, as all right-thinking women should in this situation, she abandoned the disaster area that was the laundry on the third floor and ran away to eat some ice cream instead. Artie, being the kind and adorable soul he is, somehow finds her. Or it could be because she ran away to the bathroom that they both share -- yeah, that would make it much easier to come across her.

( One thing was for certain: she was never going back to the laundry room... )

This was left outside Arla's door with an old Christmas bow stuck to it. When she unfolded the hat, a small note card fell out that red:


If you ever want to play out in the snow with me, this may come in handy. I'm working on a scarf, too. ~Artie

Who: Rahne Sinclair, Open
When: Late-ish Sunday Afternoon, 3rd February
Where: ...somewhere? Xavier's school
What: Rahne is newly arrived at the school, and is wandering about. Who knows who she'll meet?

( The door to Professor Xavier's office closed behind her... )

Who: Aubrey Ryan and Artie Maddicks
When: Afternoon, January 31
Where: Artie's room
What: Aubrey is upset about his fight with Kasey and needs to talk to the one person in the school who sort of understands what he's going through.

Aubrey had been there for twenty minutes, and he'd been signing nonstop. It felt so good to be around Artie, to sign freely and be understood. He explained about his night with Kasey, about how the relationship was going, and about the fucking awful fight they'd had. He'd said all the wrong things and Kasey didn't want to see him and he just wanted to bang his head against the wall over and over and over again.

She hates that I can't communicate with her and I hate that I can't sign to her but she's learning, she's just not learning as fast as I thought she might learn and I'm frustrated... and I was an idiot and I snapped at her and... He sighed, raking his hands back through his hair as he flopped back on Artie's bed.

He continued from where he was lying. I lost my temper. It's not that I think she's completely in the right but I shouldn't have lost my temper. I was a complete dick. He groaned, frustrated, and dragged himself back up to sit. I'm sorry to unload on you but I figured you might get it, out of anyone else here... I know you're hearing but you don't speak, and... if anyone would understand, it'd be you.

Who: Artie, Aubrey, Professor Xavier, Hank
When: Early morning, Dec. 17
NPCs: Jarrod Shaafer
Where: School grounds
What: Artie goes outside to smoke pot and suddenly hates the fact that he can't speak

( He gasped, the joint hissing as it hit snow, totally forgotten. )

Who: Artie!
When: Late night Tuesday Dec 11
Where: The mansion
What: Artie figured that people were probably just too tired to respond to his entry, so with bags of candy, he begins to sneak around the halls.

( Some would argue that Santa really didn't fit into the whole Buddhist mindset. )
