Opinion Poll: Say someone dumped like, half a shaker of salt on the breakfast their boyfriend just made. This is clearly just an appreciation of the flavorful magic of salt and not an insult to his cooking, right? I mean, the hash is still under the salt. There is clearly no reason to get huffy here.

Patrick
No, I did not dump half a shaker of salt on breakfast when you turned around. Salt is your brother's trigger-word. Respond accordingly.

Tiny Milligan
How do you feel about enclosed spaces? I'm making you a present. It'll be boring as fuck, but you'll like it.

Patrick
I need two things from you.

1) A word that Parker should gradually begin associating with gay porn without realizing why.
2) Pluck a hair, I'm bonding a cardboard box with enhanced dimensional qualities to the Milligan DNA.

holy.... what the... TESSA! If you were trying to give me a heart attack? MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

((pretend this was posted last night, post-untethering, handwave, handwave...))

Guys, has Elder Milligan's face always looked like that? I mean, is this just a thing I got used to via exposure before my visual palate was forcibly refreshed? His nose is just...kind of weird isn't it?

See, apparently at midnight "normal people" like to be sleeping not turning all the lights on to see everything, or reading books, or watching TV,or going outside, even if the person they are tethered to just regained their eyesight

Seal must think its funny. I had intended to have my own room to myself after passing those tests. I do much better alone. FYI, I also passed the tests 24 years ago Apparently it doesn't think so. No offense, but I'd prefer it's someone I know. Maybe my partner at the firm, or a fishing or hunting buddy. Or even a client if there was court here, it'd be easier to go over case notes. Kinda weird being stuck with a stranger. A whitelighter one, at that. Hadn't seen one in nearly 30 years.

[Girl that I'm stuck with]
So, I need to ask, what's your name? Something familiar, plus you seem to know me but I don't know you Sorry you got hurt when you orbed. If this were one sided, I'd endure it if it were just me being hurt. But your safety is of more importance, so let's not risk it again.

Also, we should look into beds. I'm sure there's a couple rooms next to this one that are empty. We can grab it. Or... this way is easier, I could bring the couch into the bedroom and sleep on that instead. I've been on couches before, no problem.

My wake up call this morning was not an alarm, but instead a punch. I may or may not have a black eye now. Thanks, Tessa. I see lots of snark in my future. And possibly even more hate sent my way from my brother, but whatever, this is a seal thing not a 'trying to steal your girl' thing so

I woke up with that Cole guy Mom warned us about, and I can't leave.

Okay, seriously James, this is not an appropriate prank and besides what the fuck did I ever do to you, man? Hey, Tessa, where are you right now?

[Mrs. Lewis]
Alright, so, um, I am really really sorry I froze you. Just, uh, I didn't really expect to wake up to you.

Town? Check. School that looks like it's been abandoned for 80 years? Check. A ridiculous amount of tress that kinda look out of place? Check. Other forms of life? Not so much.... Uh, is there anybody out there? Cause this is pretty weird, even by my standards...

Okay so I just speak into this and
Shit, is this even fucking
So how about we never, ever, ever do that again
I didn't think I was ever going to

Okay, the Helen Keller impression got boring.

Patrick
What happened? If you left during that then something must have
Actually, no, I've had enough of needing people to reassure me every five goddamn seconds so

I don't know if you saw that, but I'm fine. Jacob caught me, we're about a mile away now.

I'm sorry, I thought I could get her, I thought I saw her starting to solidify and I thought if I was just inside the barrier that maybe I could just grab her and pull us backwards before it even had time to throw us. Are you guys okay? Is she out?

Please go stay with Tessa. I can't right now but I don't want her to be alone. No time to explain right now but I promise when I can I will.

Apparently our entire family is stupid and unlucky.

Our sisters just went into the woods, basically. Penny was orbing and it happened and Sammy's dumbass went after her.

And it's kind of my fault, man, she was coming to heal me.

[Ariel]

I think I need to push back seeing you, Sammy did something extremely stupid.

I think today is a good time for a check in.

I've moved those who passed away last night into one of the offices on the ground floor. I'll be speaking to their families about what to do next. So everyone knows, I have Andy Gallagher, Ben Braeden, Ariel, and Alex Halliwell-Thorn. If anyone else needs to be added to the list, please let us know.

Families of Andy, Alex and Ben
I'm the closest thing Ariel has I mean had...no, actually even if she's I'm still to family here, so I'll take care of her. If you're overwhelmed right now and want someone else to take over arrangements, I can do that. If not, still let me know if there's anything else I can do.

Lewis Family
Is your daughter all right? James told me a little of what happened, but I'm not sure if he knows all of it himself.

Jacob
Hey kiddo, I'll be downstairs for a while dealing with things. Do you mind staying with James and Samantha and keeping an eye on them? If you need anything I'll still be here, call me or come down and get me for anything, I mean it.

someone needs to go to the lobby they wont wake up and i cant stay there i cant do anything im sorry


[ooc: Basically, oooo corpses. Penny tried to heal them, and then freaked out and orbed away~]

I cannot stop him.

[ooc: For the record: Loki and Tessa teleported over to where mirror!Loki was blowing up the local bakery (donut worry?), intending to bind his power and banish him. Only, as soon as Loki got too close, he was teleported away by ~some unknown force~ (aka the barrier). WHOOPS.]

Well, you pass out for a nice little coma go to sleep early just once and look at all the fun and games you miss. Lesson learned.

Now, however, I am rested and ready to play.

Dad
Please tell me you can kill him
Dad, I can't do this again, I need
Are you any better this morning?

Mom
So. I read your posts from last night. You were really just going to walk out of here and let me wake up to you gone and Dad so out of it he can't even form words to tell me what happened?

Patrick
So, you know that with my Dad sort of out of commission there is a chance I'm up to bat here. Remember that promise about not risking your life? Cashing it in.
Look, maybe my dad can still handle it. I don't want to go up against this thing. I'm sc
I know, you in a huge group living situation makes you jumpy. You did manage the complex in 2012 though. What are the chances I can convince you to move yourself and Tiny Milligan in with my parents until this is over? They're in the hotel, but they can move into one of the suites if I ask.

[[Sent about five minutes after the psychic-headaches of Loki. Headaches should now be over. Yayy]]

Headache should be over, for those of you who had it. Situation's under control.

Patrick
Don't be alarmed by the yelling-and-disappearing act. My dad took a go at the barrier. Lewises never learn and psychic-bleed is a bitch. He should be okay though.

Mom
You should come down he
...no, he'd want me to wait till he didn't look so

1. There are not any actual zombies in the basement of the hotel, in case anyone else thought there maybe might have been.
2. Brandon is cool, he taught me how to reset fuses. That is probably a useful life skill!
3. I just invented a new coffee flavor, and I need volunteers to test it. No diabetics, or people with heart problems. I will not be held responsible if you explode from the sheer gloriousness of it.
   
4. Patrick, can I kidnap birds from the pet store? I feel like I need a bird. Possibly ten of them.

So, I'm not entirely sure what is going on. This isn't...well, any of the places I know.

Someone want to explain? And possibly give me a poptart? That might help with the whole explaining thing.

[Tessa and Loki]

Hello, family, are either of you here? I'd very much like to go home about now if you are.
