Light of May ::: an original roleplay

Who: Reggie and Parker
Where: Random Supermarket
When: Around 3PM-ish

After an... interesting time at the park Reggie had actually decided to do some grocery shopping. Well, correction; A LOT of grocery shopping. Her fridge was practically bare save for a half-empty carton of milk and take out from four nights ago that was surely going bad. How she'd let herself get so low on food was anyone's guess. She could have sworn that damn fridge had been stock-piled with enough to last for quite a long time. Had she really eaten that much? If so, it was a good thing she hadn't put on any significant weight. God bless her freaky physiology.

Pushing a basket already filled with essential products she exhaled tiredly. She really did hate grocery shopping. And for some reason it seemed like everyone was out restocking their food supplies. Figures. That seemed to be how her luck went these days. Maneuvering her basket past a trio of gossiping housewives who seemed to think the entire aisle belonged to them she grimaced visibly. 'This place is so goddamn crowded...' Didn't these people have jobs or whatever to get to? This was ridiculous...

Once she was past a few more clusters of people she finally felt like she was able to breathe. It was times like this she wished she could pick up a chainsaw and- *BANG!* Her thoughts were interrupted instantly when she felt her basket collide into something. Blinking, she looked up to see that the something was someone else's basket. Oh crap. She shut her eyes again and let out a long, drawn out sigh.

"Sorry about that. Guess my mind was elsewhere..." She said apologetically, eyes still shut as if she were afraid to open them and face what was probably a furious soccer mom. 'FML...'

BIRTHDAYS: Amaya

WEATHER: A nice breeze finally rolls in, but temperatures and humidity levels are still at record highs.

EVENTS: Talk of religion and alternative lifestyles aren't out of place in a city like Ann Arbor. There's a little something for everybody here – which may explain the pamphlets that have been turning up in the area, including in Scarlet Oak. People have been passing out pamphlets all day, as well as leaving them on car windshields in parking lots. It reads:

Alchemy- Any process of transmuting a common substance into a substance of great value.

      Have you ever felt lost in your own life?

      Have you ever felt like nobody in this entire world cares about you or what you want?

      Have you ever been tired of feeling like you're always wrong?

Well, maybe you're not wrong, maybe the world is wrong. Sounds strange to think about doesn't it? But doesn't it also sound exciting? The Assemblage of Divine Alchemy is here to help you transform your current universe of pain and suffering into one of joy, love, and acceptance. Throughout childhood we're taught that we're special, unique individuals who can do whatever we set our minds to. Now as we grow up we learn that such isn't always the case, and sometimes we have to settle with what we've got.

But wait, what if life didn't have to be like that? What if we've all just been conditioned to think that's the way works by a few negative individuals? What if we could go back to those childhood ways of unrepentant joy, unquestionable acceptance of others, and stress free days?

We're here to say that you can, and it won't even cost you a penny to do so. The Assemblage of Divine Alchemy is here to say that we care about you, we care about everyone, and we want everyone to be able to experience the existence they were meant to have. Curious? Well come on down and meet us sometime, we welcome all regardless of race, gender, or creed and preach equality through absolute bliss. Join us in helping to transform your existence into a true life filled with happiness and love.

For in the end, what do we all have in common other than the need to love and feel love in return?

There is no information given about where to 'come on down' to to meet whoever is in charge though, so whoever these loonies are, it's probably not important. Right?

Finally, author Adam Rowe will be having a book-signing at Lenore's this Saturday!

If you have something you feel warrants a mention in the next time update, please let the mods know!
