lightning_war post recap: July 16-25, 2008
Game date and time: Monday afternoon, 14 September 1942:
Announcements:
* Lightning War has been on Insane Journal now for 3 months. If you are reading this on Live Journal or through an RSS feed, links will work, but clicking on journal names will take you to a Live Journal which will not have been updated and may not even belong to the game.
* If you are not a member of this community, your comments to posts will be screened, which makes discussions less lively. Watching/friending this community isn't the same thing as being a member. Please join the community; I will approve you as soon as I'm sure you're not our troll.
Completed/Continuing Open Threads:
Julie Peverell and Davy Longbottom talk to the first through third-year Hogwarts students about the drills and past crises, and are asked questions for which they were not quite prepared. (Closed and complete.)
Tom Riddle's loneliness is eased by schadenfreude, but his attempt to flirt with Arianwen Rosier goes totally sour. (Closed and complete.)
Funny notes in the upperclassmens' toilets. (Probably complete, not yet closed.)
The St Mungo's diagnostic team gathers to discuss Bilius Lovegood with his guardian, Isaac Diggory. (Probably complete, not yet closed.)
Jameson Wilkes and Isaac Diggory discuss Bilius Lovegood's chances of survival. (Probably complete, not yet closed.)
Galina Lyubova has lots on her mind, and Verity Umbridge is not really helping with that. (Closed and complete.)
New Posts:
Edmund Diggory feels guilty about his treatment of Bilius Lovegood.
Lucius Malfoy is in command, but would prefer that the adults come home and take care of things now.
Melina Zabini is worried about her husband, and also surprised at the way Lucius' authority is so easily accepted in this crisis.
Lavinia Scalara informs Yvon Malfoy (who's probably still sleeping) that she thinks he should go home, but Dracaena and Lucius seem to disagree.
Mindred Farryll is glad to be home and hopes that Gillian Greenwood will be able to scry out the activities of their treacherous great aunt, whose descendant she is.
Edward Kyteler has had it with Gabrielle's interference.
Corinne Allison has accepted a dinner invitation she probably shouldn't have.
Alastor Moody is alarmed at having realised he nearly walked into a trap and is slightly chagrined to admit that Lucius is a better leader than he is. Lucius, however, is feeling the weight of responsibility rather heavily at the moment. (Complete.)
The obligations of his station and the reasons for his education begin to become unhappily clear to Lucius Malfoy.
Alice Diggory is worried; she thought that surely Isaac (and maybe Bilius) would be home by now.
Chris Howe is worried about a lot of her friends. And may have had a crush on Jael Moody that Jael didn't know about.
Edward Kyteler, Dracaena Malfoy, Nicodemo Zabini and Lavinia Scalara discuss the defence of the Bois des Malfées.
Hadrian Kyteler writes a love letter, a thank-you note, and despatches to his father and Estrid Farryll about the situation with respect to Warren Greenwood.
Jenny Moody doesn't really understand what's going on, but that doesn't stop her from having opinions.
Silvia Vincenti wants her father to come back safe, and wishes she and Dory had more playmates.
Rosalind Clutterbuck is having an interesting day at work.
Miranda Serrano is concerned about her patients.
Dylan Mulciber may be pants at cricket--but give him the cluebat and he's the batsman Gresham needs most on his team.
Dracaena Malfoy informs Lord Farryll that reinforcements are on the way to him, too.
Dion Fortune sets her coven to work.
Will Goyle puts Arianwen Rosier on the Inquisitorial Squad.
Arianwen Rosier is tired of boys.
Edward Kyteler writes Aisling Kyteler to demand the immediate return of Claudien de Kernoël in return for Aoife Rochford.
Priscilla Chattox-Kyteler requests the release of Marcus Weasley's papers from Magickal Law Enforcement.
Penelope Davies wants to let Priscilla know that Dracaena can't come to St Mungo's to talk about Bilius. And that she wouldn't throw her out of bed for eating crackers.
New Journals:
claudien Claudien de Kernoël is a French pureblood heir who is related to the Malfoys, the Lestranges, the DeVries, and the Thibaults. His sister was killed (or so we are told) before she could be manoeuvred into marriage with one of Grindelwald's men, and he is the heir to some strategically important lands near Calais. The Irish rebels captured him while he was on his way to Hogwarts Castle. (PB: Tom Felton)
Here's the list of who's where on Insane Journal.
New NPCs/PBs:
None this time.
New Graphics:
guywiththeeye has a new PB, Joseph Beattie, and new userpics.
Please be patient with us as many of the new journals are not yet set up and do not yet have proper layouts. I'm 2/3 way done with my own and then I'll be able to help other people. Once all the old journals are laid out at all, new layouts will again be noteworthy.
There are also a lot of new userpics, too many to list, as people go from 6 to 100 apiece. alessio, artisson and domitian got more than a few new ones.
Under New Management:
There are a lot of characters that are currently open. Check out the Adoptable Characters page for descriptions of the kinds of adoptions that are open and lists of characters available for each. If you are not sure, ask. :)
