Chaos Theory: A Buffyverse RPG

Who: Ritchie & Rupert Giles
When: Tuesday, Week Seven - early morning
Where: Giles' condo after this
What: Early morning cartoons via DVR.

So maybe Tuesdays weren't the best of days to get up and go watch cartoons early in the morning, but Ritchie was free. The renovations were still coming along, even if it was... odd that some of thing things that broke in the building were replaced wtih at quickness that was more than a little disconcerting. He didn't look into it, though, just assumed it came with being an aid to Slayers and... vampires, so to speak.

Ritchie was still wrapping his head about it, but it was eight in the morning and he was still sleepy. Taking a break from waking up at five to get to work was starting to get to him. His hair was askew as he walked up to Giles' door just dressed in his normal Simpson's pajamas and Homer slippers. He knocked on the door, trying not to be too loud as he did it.

"Giles?"

Who: Angel & Beth.
What: Moping about how much his life sucks. And maybe trying to locate Spike.
When: Week Seven. I don't really care what day or time, so if you have a preference, let me know.
Where: Inside Angel's office at first, then outside of it.
Status: Active.

Angel tilted his chair back and looked up at the ceiling with a sigh. He'd just spent the last few hours calling various contacts to see if anyone had caught a glimpse of Spike in the past week -- to no avail whatsoever, of course. Usually Angel had no problem finding the members of his bloodline when he put his mind to it, especially Spike, since he always made himself so damn obvious. But apparently Spike really didn't want to be found this time. Wherever he had run off to, he'd taken great care to hide it from Angel.

After taking a moment to press his fingers to his temples, he dragged himself out of the chair and headed for the office's door. If he didn't get away from this task for a while, he was liable to have an aneurysm any minute now. He locked the door behind him, then glanced around what had served as the lobby when the building belonged to Wolfram & Hart. Now it was just another room on another floor, which was fine by him because it meant fewer people had a reason to loiter around. By this week, he imagined word had spread of Spike's disappearance throughout the Pod, at least to anyone who cared. He hadn't encountered many people discussing the topic, but the few he did overhear had some interesting theories as to why the vampire had left, ranging from 'he ran off with a mysterious Slayer that none of us have ever met' to 'he decided to open an all-male strip club in Vegas.' Although really neither of those would've been particularly surprising had they been true. But he knew they weren't, because Spike had left with Riley and Angel had already checked Vegas. Maybe Atlantic City? Spike was just trashy enough that he'd probably like it there.

Who: Ethan Rayne & Rupert Giles
When: Monday, Week Seven - very late at night
Where: Giles' condo
What: Ethan has some news, and it's not very good.

( Ethan wasn't a fan of chaos he didn't create. )

Who: Beth Holden & (OPEN)
When: Week Seven, Saturday afternoon
What: Beth brings back the Christmas tree
Where: Pod Lobby

The tree farm's flatbed had just dropped off the Christmas tree, and the delivery man and driver had forklifted it into the lobby. Beth was carefully sawing through the twine that had kept the branches flat for transport, and the new extra-large tree stand was already put together and waiting for the trunk although she imagined she was gonna need a little help maneuvering the twelve foot tree upright.

But, one step at a time. First, twine. Second, branch-fluffing. Third, she'd twist a few arms and recruit a few "volunteers" to help her stand the tree up.

Decoration was not her bag, though.

Who: Ainsley and Andrew
When: Tuesday, week seven
Where: Ainsley's
What: Even fluffy gay men sometimes have a reality check

WEEK SEVEN
Monday, Nov. 29th -- Sunday, Dec. 5th 2004

MOON PHASE
Dec. 4th is the Last Quarter crescent moon, waning towards the New Moon. The Waning Moon is the phase when the Full Moon has passed and the moon is now decreasing in size nightly as it makes it's way across the sky towards the phase of New Moon. As the moon decreases, magick should be oriented towards decreasing as well. You would work banishments and "send" the negativity away. Rid yourself of the things you don't want or need in your life. Banish negative thoughts, eliminate negative feelings, release all guilt, lose that extra weight, and release any angry or hostile emotions. Make room for the new and improved!

Incense: Lavender, frankincense, sage
Crystals: Smoky quartz

IN-GAME NOTES:
from rupert_giles

1) Please notice that winter holiday observances are coming upon us. The precise date of the Winter Solstice is December 21st; Christmas is December 25th, Boxing Day is December 26th, Hanukkah begins Wednesday Dec. 8th and lasts until the 16th, and Kwanzaa begins Dec. 26th and is observed until January 1st. If I have omitted your observance, please let me know and I will apologize profusely as well as make the proper observations.

1A) As an addendum to #1, please be aware that we do have vampires in our midst. If your personal holiday display involves the display of a rather large cross, please consider our friends and make sure that if they are invited into your areas, it's removed or covered so they are not harmed. Otherwise, please feel free to decorate as you wish.

2) Seeing as how Ms. Summers volunteered herself at Thanksgiving, please see Buffy (and not me, thank God) for all your decoration needs.

3) Please be on your guard. The sensitive among us have been troubled by the recent swell of dark magic. We have no idea what is going on, although we are working on it. If you have any information, ideas, dreams, theories, random thoughts, or irrational fears, don't be afraid. We are investigating everything at this point.

3A) As an addendum to #3, please be sure to report ANYTHING that you see that you consider to be out of the ordinary. We would rather track down all leads and make sure that things are as they should be.

4) Slayers, please continue your dream journals. Mr. Ainsley, Ms. Casimiro, Mr. Price and myself will be glad to discuss them with you. There are often images and leads in your dreams that will help us to figure out precisely what is going on.


OUT-OF-GAME NOTES

1) We've had some revisions to the mod-plot, because of lost players and the way things are turning out. (Not that I mind; I like it better this way.) Revisions can be found right here.

2) The ban on characters back from the dead has been lifted, although I'd like to see a few of the live characters picked up first. However, I'm not gonna complain too much, because...

3) WE'VE GOT NEW PLAYERS. bowlingshirts is our new Doyle, and visionsinprada is our new Cordelia! Please make sure your f-lists are updated. We also have a pending character, Faith, and hopefully we'll be getting them applied and involved very soon.

4) The cursed clothing storyline has started!

UPDATE YOUR FRIENDS LIST

If you didn't update your flist when bowlingshirts first joined, please do so now.
