[There's a long pause as she's unsure what to say. Then, finally, she speaks. Her voice a bit shaky.]

Oliver, can we, um ... talk?

Hello and good morning, inmates. I wanted to extend my apologies for the technical issues the dome experienced yesterday, and reassure you that things should be back to normal and expected functions today. Thank you for your patience.

Today is a day for creativity and artistic endeavors. Dispensed throughout the dome's public locations you will find a variety of spray-paint cans which you're encouraged to use to brighten up the scenery for the day. No surface off limits, we would like for you to let loose and do as you please - but the unfortunate downside being the artwork will only last until tomorrow morning. Much like... Cinderella? You have until midnight to have your fun.

The shops are stocked with other painting supplies as well, should you like brushes and paint cans as well. Please enjoy yourselves and have fun.

[Jaunty tune.]

So, I might not. Actually be okay after everything from two days ago. I mean I'm not hearing voices anymore or anything but I think I might have dug up some stuff, ya know? I might need to talk to someone about it.

I don't, have Dig here to talk to - or the potted plant in the Arrowcave, don't ask, I spent a lot of time in this basement. It was a thing and you can totally ask me about it sometime seeing as I'll probably never go back there and I can't actually do anything about it and have absolutely no purpose in life and - Yeah, anyone know when there's another one of those group therapy session things?

Hey Kirk, do you think maybe we could get that drink?

( He needed to change his plan to distance himself )</>

Today has been a better day than most...

3 hours of training and I still feel like I should do more.

You know it's actually kinda nice to get to know people here. Not that I want to pick out curtains and live here forever or something, but the past few days have been oddly nice. I mean I miss everyone back home and we've got so much more to do, but lunch with Jaden was nice.

Also I think I saw Han Solo from my veranda. A true geek girl's dream.

Oh, there's also a dollhouse that I don't know what to do with. Any ideas would be welcome.

( For Oliver )

I never thought I would miss training with Logan.

[There's some creepy static flickering across the screen, although frankly Kanji looks more curious than freaked out. He's got a good track record when it comes to keeping his shit together in haunted houses.]

Hey whatda ghosts look like man? 'Cause I keep seein' some weird shit around.

I could go for a run to clear my head. Dinah, up for it?

Well every time I think I've figured things out something else surprises me. It looks like I am indeed stuck for a while, so anyone know what to do for fun around here?

Hello?

Who is out there?


There was some kind of message, but seems choppy and cut off.

Good morning, residents.

We are ha- [ Static interrupts the broadcast] -technical difficulties. There's- [ Static.] -cause for concern. Stay alert and be aw-[ There's music, distant, scratchy, like it's being played on an old vinyl. ] -surroundings and we'll have this sorted out in no time.

Your well-being is very- [ The feed cuts out. There's no jaunty tune. ]

((OOC: EVENT INFO))

They've started making more of an effort to actually go on dates and interact with each other more outside the bedroom (even if it often ends up in similar sorts of activities as they do in the bedroom!) and now they're extending that to a three-way date night down at the Blood Shack. Jack finds it rather enjoyable to head out with Ianto on his arm, a pleasant tingle of anticipation inside him. Things are stable and really rather good, there's no big drama going on, and he can just look forward to a night out with his two lovers and enjoy seeing where the night takes them.

( NSFW )

[ It struck him that morning that, despite going all official and practically living together, they'd actually never really gone out on a date. Considering what a fucking asshole he's been for most of the time they've known each other, Wade figures it's about time he does something to make up for it.

So, he gets into the suit and hits the streets, returning about half an hour later with a cake box. Inside is something very special. ]

Happy birthday, honey.

I am already getting restless here. Anyone up for some sparring or something? I can't just sit here.

Good evening my fellow lost souls. I have managed to get my club Caritas up and running. Opening night is this Friday night and first drink is on the house.

Hello inmates, welcome to Day 436. Looking back into some of the results of the therapy sessions within the dome, we've examined that many people struggle with conveying thoughts through verbal speech. Looking for ways to remedy this, we have made today a hands-on project.

Present within the shops today are a selection of cakes with a variety of messages from the mundane to the deeply insightful. We hope that you feel inclined to select a cake and choose a recipient for it, to whom you can deliver it personally or have one of our drones drop it off. They will be within the dome for the extent of today for this purpose before retiring come tomorrow.

Should you not find the wording for your heartfelt messages existing, there are stations in Sector 0 where you can freely create your own designs to be distributed at your leisure. We hope you have some fun with this.

Oh, and Ms. Smoak? If you have a moment, I thought we could catch that bite to eat. My schedule's open for the afternoon.

[Jaunty tune to close it off.]

[The feed clicks on to a very annoyed looking Keith.]

So I guess this is what people mean by "disappearing".

For anyone here who knew him, Lance isn't here anymore.

[And the feed was off.]

I need, a really big aspirin, or several bottles of wine ... A face massage maybe? No, that would probably still hurt my brain. I used to wish I knew what people were thinking mostly one person really; can I amend that now? Can I just get one person at a time and not everyone all at once?

Oliver, Laurel, thank you so, so much for all your help yesterday. You are literally my heroes; in some cases again. I should buy - or get, you guys a drink, or dinner or something. Just name it.

Darcy, I also owe you a drink or dinner or whatever too for helping me keep Oliver from eating Ray.
