Bellum Letale--A Pre-Made Roleplaying Community

[Friday evening]

Ring.

[Posted early Friday morning; no replies are sent till late Friday evening.]

If you haven't already, please dig through the forums for the post by #401 - your fables should have left messages for you.

[...]

I'd also like to take this time to apologize for any distress, Javert caused. If you have an issue, please feel free to adress them. I'll attempt a reply by this evening. Forgive me - I haven't had any sleep in over 72 hours.

It may not have crossed your minds, but these forum posts should still be accesible when our respective counterparts return to the building. If you have a specific message to them or another, recording something for them would be a wise idea.

As warning to those of you haven't already thought of this - I can assure you, others will make use of this information later on.

[Impatient huff.]

Wendy Darling is not speaking to me. So I need a new mother cause Wendy is a stubborn girl.

Is anybody REALLY good at stories? Like SUPER GOOD. With ADVENTURES!

[The voice is confused and agitated, and very much Serena's]

What the hell? Wasn't something supposed to have happened? The moon's up and I haven't changed into anything. All of you were out of your godd Why have the boards gone voice only? And why the hell can't I get out?

Oh, and if someone can explain why I'm being bowled over by waves of emo

You're an even better liar than I thought. You really had me going there, Ja Chris. But I won't hold it against you, not after that spectacular night out.

I'm searching for the Other Beauty. I'd like to speak to her please, if anyone knows her whereabouts.

Also, I normally don't socialize within the building, as I'm generally confined above-stairs for the duration of my time here, but I was curious if anyone else feels rather disappointed with this turn of events? We have limited time here, after all, and now we are all incarcerated as well?

Locked to R1

[Hopefully] Are you out there still?

Hello?

Peter? I know what number is yours. Somehow. But I don't know if you're there? I'm not in my room tonight, boy. If you fly there, you won't find me.

Is there anyone else out there listening? I've heard other voices. I don't know where I am, and I've lost my brothers. Or... I think it might be me that's lost tonight...

[voice wavers a little] I hope they're alright...

[Some rustling is heard, a bit of harried scratching in the background. There's a bit of uneven breathing, and finally a female voice.] Hello? Is this on? Shit, I don't even know if I have a microphone. [The sound falls out for a moment before coming back, unsteady.] Okay. Okay, I think I found something that looks like a microphone. I think.

Whatever. Look, am I the only one that is suddenly trapped? I can't open my door or window, and I'm not sure if this is just some prank my friend is pulling or- [A loud pounding is heard in the background, followed by the sound of a chair being pushed back.] Just a sec, some asshole's making noise. [The female voice gets a bit softer, suggesting that the woman has moved away from the microphone.] What the fuck is going on in there? Luther?

[the voice is a near bark] OPEN UP IN THE NAME OF THE LAW. WHY IS IT THAT EVERY DOOR HERE IS LOCKED?

[there is more banging, a mutter which can't quite be made out]

( Wherein guns are shot and people yell. )

[Sometime Wednesday afternoon]


Hello - a friend of yours told me that you and your siblings live in 108. I'm Inspector Luther and working to keep everyone safe for the moon. I'm not sure if you're aware of the work going on next door, but we have a 'safe room' being set up. If that seems like an option that'd help you, I recommend coming over with your family at 3 tomorrow.

If not, I'm happy to help with furnishing locks to keep dangerous types out of your apartment. We'd like to keep everyone safe for this moon.

If you need anything feel free to call this number [# Luther's cell]

This better not be as much of a disaster as Daniel's post was

As most of you are aware, the Full Moon is less than 48 hours away. Some of you might have made plans to keep yourselves and others safe. Everyone at this time should be aware of what the moon entails - changing into 'stories' or 'fables' which are dormant for the rest of the month. In the past, there's been various people who have been put in danger.

If you're able to stay in your room and keep your fable within their and safe so much the better - a group of us are willing to help with barricades should you need them. We'd like everyone to keep safe and ensure that no one is harmed by events of the moon. Certain people might be able to keep their fables protected by various means - if you need assistance, we'd be happy to help.

Let's keep in mind that everyone here should have the same goal - everyone, no matter what their fable is, needs to be kept protected.

Should you feel unsafe or are willing to move to an area that has better reinforcements and is better prepared for our [...] fable counterparts, there's a proposal for you. If we pooled our money together for a first floor apartment, with the proper preparations, we could have it as a 'safe room' for the moon. This would be temporary, for this moon and perhaps the next, until we know how well it works or have a better plan. If we all chipped in, for the safety of the community, it shouldn't cost that much.

We'd like to elect someone who the community can agree on as being safe to have on guard, for afterwards. While we encourage everyone to come up with a plan to keep themselves and those around them safe, we'd like to know if you need assistance as soon as possible. Time is ticking and we need to get to work now, if preparations need to be made.

EDIT::

If you're willing to make a donation, head over to Cole in 802. If you'd like to make use of the safe room, head down to the first floor at 3. We'll begin settling in then.

I'm getting you coffee, coke, and caffeine pills. How long have you been without sleep before?

Group lock to 706, 1203A, 1204, 1104A, 802, 703, 706, 401, 605, R1
A few additions to this list from the last time, based on recent group happenings, but the moon is getting close. I don't think we're going to have time for a full-blown building protection plan at this point. Are we comfortable with something quicker? Can we get any way to restrain the doors of existing units for everyone?

Private to 802
Tomorrow good to assemble the skel Aaron?

Private to 706
We need to talk. Man-to-man.

You sure weren't kidding when you said something weird would be happening soon. I spent two hours in a mannequin sandwich, and that wasn't even the strangest part. Though from what I'm hearing, my room wasn't even that bad. I guess I should be happy I didn't have to walk a tightrope.

Anyway, I'm sorry for not stopping by the shop after the last time we forum chatted. I'll have to do that eventually. But for now, I just thought I'd drop you a line and see how you're doing. You make it through the Night of Insanity in one piece, witchy sister?

{ This is added after the conversation with Katya dwindles to a close }

You still have fingernails?

I am I hope I have used the old fable post, here, to be finding you. I am sorry hope I am not intruding, but I find myself to be needing advice from other women.

In the locked rooms we were all having, I was required to have married Inspecto Luther a certain man. This man, I am liking him already, but this, it was very overwhelming. You do not think this marriage, it is for real, da? And if I may have possibly was running away, is there good way to be apologizing?

[locked to 706, 202]
If I am running from man who kissed me, is there good way to be saying the apologies?

[public]
Jane?

That was fun!

[Morning after Riddle Night]

Originally, I planned to stop by after returning the building but I saw that you were busy. How did the evening treat you? Did Daniel explain what was with that

{ Posted maybe 10 minutes after Joanie's group leaves their room }


[ Locked to 401 ]

Weird shit happened like Katya said.

You alright?

[ Locked to 705 ]

Did decking out your ship help you at all, Captain?

[ Locked to 307 ]

I just spent nearly 2 hours watching Dracula sniff blood.

Please tell me your night has been better.

[ Locked to 202 ]

How has the king been on this strange night?

Hello, everyone! My name is Sherri Salvage, I moved in today. I saw a few people in the halls and the lobby, but I'm afraid I didn't take the time to stop and learn any names. It's been a long day and I'm about to hit the sack, but I thought I'd post a quick hello.

I'm Joss's older sister, I have a B.A. in English, and I'm about a semester away from having a master's in library science. I'll be looking around for a job that relates at least a little to that, so if anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears.

I'm looking forward to meeting you all soon!

[Promptly following this]

Ring.

Hello, neighbors. I'm Serena St. James and I've just moved in. I've met some of you in passing, but thought a more thorough introduction would not go amiss. I'm a dancer and stage actress by profession, and am currently performing as a chorus member in the new musical The Bacchae. It's off-broadway for the moment, but I promise you that it's still great. If you're at all a theater fan, let me know and I'll hook you up with discount tickets.

Other things to know about me: I'm a night owl, and my door is always open. The latter is literally true at the moment, since I'm painting up a storm in here (sorry about the fumes, guys!) Do stop by and say hello if you can.

[Directly after this]

I survived.
