The Junkyard: IC Community

Well, I guess I should probably introduce myself - and apologize to those I had a hand in taking captive for the Grandmaster.

My name is Kady, and I come from a universe similar to Eliot's, though magic is sort of illegal where I'm from.

Hey, folks. Starting off with the good-in-hindsight news: the wiring in the old gym is not as much of a fire hazard as I worried it was! It was enough for me to steal one of those big vacuum cleaner things to get some of the gross out of the [...] gymnasium part? Basketball court? Swept it up a bit. Tried to make it smell a bit less like 'old gym' in there.

In the regular good news category: Since I know Steve-o's been getting healed up and not had time to get the movie together, I thought I'd offer an alternative to the date ni outing tonight in the form of a dance.

I've got the place and the music and the big bowls of punch. You can bring yourselves, maybe a light snack, and your dancing shoes 😊

I figured we'd have a little kind of class before things start so folks could learn a couple moves if they want, and maybe help the folks who want to look for a dance partner find one who's not gonna step all over their toes.

Uh Dress code is 'whatever's comfortable to dance', I guess? We're not going super fancy, or at least I don't think we are.

I'm gonna be there starting about 7:00 I think. And, uh, that's it?

Okay.

Hello, Fellow Derlethians! A few announcements.

First:

It has been brought to my attention that a garage would be useful as more of us acquire vehicles for outings and supply runs. I thought I would open discussion here on where we should put this garage.

There are existing buildings we could perhaps remodel. Carter Hall isn't suitable as a living space as it's not connected to our water or lights for some reason. There's also Armitage Hall, which is mostly offices and classrooms.

Or, there is space between Carter Hall and the library, if we were able to construct a new space. I've noticed some of you have taken to using it for parking. Some of you leave your floating bike wherever you pl


Second:

Although none of us can say for certain the correct pronouncification of our home, I would like to propose der-LETH as the proper way to speak its name. I've heard some of you refer to the campus as DUR-leth, and I think we can all agree the former way of speaking is so much more pleasant than the later, I'm sure.


Lastly:

Someone mentioned a magic ball? Where non-talking animals might live? As we are already making a garage, stables would be a strain on our resources, particularly for such large creatures some of you may be planning on hatching. ...There is a magical ball, isn't there?

"You're in the Void. Think of it as purgatory. Some call it a metaphysical junkyard where anything useless goes before it gets annihilated forever. It's where people that don't play nice with the rest of the Multiverse end up."
