blackpoint - the au community

I might have gone a little overboard on the grocery shopping. But I'll be damned if anything is going to waste. Our doors'll be open if you're lookin for somewhere to eat tomorrow.

And in case you're worried about a Musketeer cooking an American Thanksgiving, don't be. I've had people threaten me at gunpoint for my turkey recipe.

With a watergun but still.

It looks like there will be a second wedding in our little family as well. Apparently, I have Aramis and Porthos to thank for helping Athos prepare? He did a wonderful job! No morgues included.

And our little girl has eyebrows now, according to the internet.

I believe it's safe to announce at this point, because if I don't, Porthos will probably have the thing over and done with before I know it. After a great many years together, raising a son and building quite the family with two others that fit in well to our puzzle of madness and love, Porthos and I are getting married. Officially.

So far all we've decided is that it'll be quite the party on the beach. Likely sooner, rather than later, and you'll all be invited. But in the meantime, we accept congratulatory drinks, hugs and gifts. Also the planning of a joint enterrement de vie de garçon would be most welcome, before we put on the shackles.

It's taken an hour of instruction, but a heartfelt merci to the lovely woman that showed me how this contraption works. I left a gift on your desk as extra thanks.

And here I was led to believe all Americans were uncivilized. How wrong they were. I was told the Musketeers were here, when I asked about them? We were in the middle of a very heated battle when I found my way here, and I would know that they are whole and healthy, if possible. They're too old to be getting into this much trouble.

[OOC: The Dauphin from Criminal!AU! Kidnapped & raised by the Musketeers to keep him safe, was raised as a thief and assassin. Knows he's rightful heir, but was in the middle of a revolution with the people of Paris. More here! Any of the ladies of HPD, feel free to claim helping him, he left you a trinket from his century stolen probs but whatever.]

When I speak into this device, it--

oh, yes. I see that it does.

I am new to this place... and to this time, as it would seem. I am in need of

a great many things, as a matter of fact. But we shall start with clothing.

[ badass queen anne who is the sole ruler of france and comes bearing an infant daughter. ENJOY, musketeers! ]

Shit. The season of Porthos eats too much bloody candy is officially upon us. Workin with kids was a bad idea.

Okay, no, no it wasn't, but still. I feel like a piñata and it's only the 7th. Somebody hit me.

[FILTERED TO HIS ARAMIS]

Did you know black rings were a thing now? I like it. Just sayin.

FILTERED TO OLDER!ATHOS:

I've a question for you, love. One that most likely lends better to personal conversation, but I doubt either of us want prying ears poking in and that's a very distinct possibility with the two nosy ones we live with.

Though, I'd have no objection to Porthos being involved in this conversation, I thought I'd spare you from both of us for once.

I am honestly speechless.

And probably cleaner than I've been in years, compliments of the ocean. So there's at least that.

[ the older musketeers and tristan ]

It worked.

It's still too early for announcing it, but I got a positive blood test back Friday. I'd been getting them on store-bought tests for a few days, but the blood work came back to officially say so. It's only a few weeks -- they'll give me a more definite idea of a due date at the next appointment.

Anybody want to rescue a couple of good-looking Musketeers from a Mexican police station? We're not under arrest yet, but my Spanish is terrible and it's probably just a matter of time.

I didn't wake up expecting this to happen today, that's for sure. Apologies to the rescuer I alarmed by diving down - couldn't let my hat sink.

[OOC: AU!Aramis from the same AU as Milady and Athos, but expanded slightly!]

I suppose being drowned is preferable to being burned.

[ ooc; boy!ninon! ]

FILTERED TO FUTURE!BP MUSKETEER GROUP (Minus Tristan):

We could all use a brighter top Which of you do I need to sleep with in order to convince we need to buy this? I'll be shameless if I need to.

FILTERED TO TRISTAN:

Come house shopping with me before you fuck off and leave the country. I need you on my side for this one.

[Filtered to his Aramis, Porthos, and Ninon]

( Cut for discussion of alcoholism and detox )

Unbelievable. I'll be blamed for this somehow.


[OOC: AU!Athos from Milady's world. Only change is she killed Rochefort and Athos argued for her life to be spared.]

I've managed to acquire new space for my school, and I expect to open it come fall. If there are any educators in the community looking to work with some of the most intelligent young women around, please let me know. The same goes for parents of young ladies who are seeking a more specific education.

( the older musketeers + tristan )

I never knew hallucinations could be quite so interesting.

Ah, Hawaii Youth Correctional Facility. Had I been born in this era, I likely would have ended up at one of these. Or ran into Porthos in one. Instead, I'll be working there, in an outreach program to help set kids on the right path and get them the help they need.

It's over-crowded, there's no order and guards that would rather intimidate the teens than help them. I plan on changing that, thankfully with a bit of favors called in from HPD and a long conversation with the Governor. Wish me luck, I've a feeling I'm going to need it.

Bis repetita placent.

Where are my gentlemen?

It physically pains me to say this, but I think I might be gettin too old for this shit.


Ugh alright, lemmie try and pretend I don't have saltwater in my nose. Hello, I'm Porthos Du Vallon. Used to be a Musketeer. Been here, done that, nice to meet whoever I don't already know.

Now somebody give me a hug. Please and thank you.

[OOC: Future BP Porthos to go with Aramis & Tristan. I am sure exactly ZERO people are surprised.]
