[ The "sun" is setting in the dome and it's a perfect evening for a stroll in the graveyard. He should thank the Defense Force for having its festivities tonight; though by no means does it occupy the entire prison, it takes up just enough that things are quiet here. He knows Tyki and Road are there, in the shadows, waiting with almost as much anticipation as he is. So good, to be reunited this way.

He stops in front of one simple, white tombstone that reads "Tatewaki Kunou" and sets the akuma doll's frame on the ground beside it. He filters a channel on his communicator and speaks: ]

Akane, this is Adam. Do you have a moment?

[ The poor dear; he knows she's suffering and has been unhappy. It will all be over soon. ]


((ooc: Backdated to around 6:30pm-ish (Friday) and closed to participants mentioned.))

[Rather than spend the morning jogging like he normally might, Lockon decided to get himself pumped for the eventual soccer classes. Once he got himself dressed up in gym clothes, complete with shin guards and cleats, he headed to the field and began taking some practice shots with Haro's help.]

[Shot after shot, he would place them inside the net (mostly, anyways) and then Haro would, with his tiny arms, toss them back to the penalty mark. On one particular shot, Haro tried to be super helpful by bouncing up and trying to intercept the shot... which meant Haro, himself, got launched into the net by the ricochet of the ball.]

Aaa~!

O-oy, Haro! [He laughed.] Be careful...

Danger! Stuck!

[At the edge of the field, next to the goal, is a messenger bag which contains some snacks, along with tea and water he got from the Shelter's kitchen (since he was too lazy to brew himself an entire thermos full). For some reason, he's feeling almost twice as energetic as normal, but that's just a side-effect of all the rest he's been getting... right?]

((OOC: And so begins the optional mini-event of happy happy times. Komui tainted the tea and cookies yesterday evening after the defense team party, so feel free to say your characters had some anytime after!))

***

[The video clicks on and Komui is... smiling. Grinning, actually, from ear to ear, rather stupidly. Anyone who saw his sulky demeanor last night at the party might notice the drastic change.]

[And you might also notice that his voice is really kind of loud and that he's talking incredibly fast.]

Goooooooood morning, Marina! Isn't it a ~glorious~ day? Well, actually it's only morning so far but I'm sure that it will be equally as great a day. And really, morning is a part of the day so it's not as though I wasn't right the first time! And speaking of time, last night Miranda gave me this great idea and so I've been drinking aaaaaaaaall this tea all night -- that wasn't the idea, but it was really a part of it because somehow it didn't feel right to drink coffee even though it is delicious -- and in any case you're all quite welcome, I'll accept thanks in the form of cards, or treats, or...

[...someone should probably stop him.]

[he had some tea when he got back to the shelter, scattered and disappointed and exhausted and really-- really just somewhere between furious and miserable. ...but he feels better. upbeat, even. and a little ADD]


[filtered //FROM// noahkin]
Good morning, everyone! I have an announcement to make, it's -- kind of a sensitive topic. I have to ask everyone who knows Adam to avoid him if possible. Or if you don't know him, you should still avoid him. He, ah-- may be dangerous, so. Be careful.

Report it to me-- Wait, not me. The defense force, they'll know what to do. They'll tell me. Right.


[filtered //TO// the black order+the defense force]
I don't -- I don't know how to say this. There's really no-- no good way. [he snickers a little, actually] Adam-- is the Millennium Earl. Last night he made an akuma of Tatewaki Kunou and attacked Akane -- I destroyed the akuma, but -- he's out there, so.

Ah, so don't talk to Adam, I guess-- Or the Noah-- We really need to do something, the Exorcists anyway, I don't really think it would be a good idea for everyone else, we should all just, you know, relax...

[after a fuzzy beat, a little more serious.] I'm so sorry Miranda.

[the usual bulletin board is up, with this note attached.]

[by the board are the usual different colored papers and pens...along with some crayons and a dictionary from the library, which someone appears to have forgotten...]

[[ooc: If you can't read the note, it says "How import is romans to you?" which translates from Pearl into English as "How important is romance to you?" At least she tried looking the words up... Also, I apologize for Pearl's spelling. |D]]

[Voice | Private to Lacus and Tieria]

Clyne-san and Tieria-san. I believe I have obtained all the food items necessary for our cooking lesson today. You may come over whenever is convenient. I will be here.

[Does she sound... cheerful? Is that even possible? She's using her usual formal, clipped language, but there's definitely something different in her voice.]

Good morning inmates. It is the 65th day of the third generation.

I would bring attention to a change in the policy regarding video footage, implemented due to continuous inmate demand for video discs. All requests for footage of events occurring in one's world will be refused, save for extenuating circumstances. This system has deemed these requests to waste facility resources, as they have grown far more prolific than they were ever intended to be, and feels they are an unnecessary indulgence brought about by the obsolete Sentience system's emotional defects.

Requests for inmates Orihime Inoue and Soubi Agatsuma have arrived and can be received at the entrance to Sector 0.

[Obviously Ichigo has just been training a little too hard. He doesn't have his weapon here, so other things will have to do for now. Though he still can't use any kidou. At least he still has his shunpo.

Well there aren't any magical springs here, so looks like a regular hot bath will have to do instead. A shame, really, that Ichigo is too much of a blockhead to realize he's wandered into the public baths. With only a towel around his waist, he settles into the water, elbows resting on the edge. Be gentle, as he very easily succumbs to embarrassment about decency issues.]

[Soubi has retrieved Seimei's glasses and it currently outside of the Shelter, not certain what he should do with them. He got them...because Seimei was inconvenienced without them. He should give them to him before he goes to the kitchens to make breakfast.]

[Private]

Seimei.

{OOC: Action open to anyone who wants to run into him?]

[A little tired, Yuuki shuts the door behind her, leaving her parents and Kaname inside. She isn't ill by any means, but there's a bit of a light-headed sensation as she moves. She's fairly talented at hiding it, but her brother had taken quite a bit of blood. Gaze drawn inward, she pauses, taking a breath before leaning against the wall in thought.

He had seemed so full of despair and loneliness. She knows right now, that he and their parents need to talk. It's been years for him as well. She can't help but feel her heart clench in worry, though. What happened back home? Raising a hand up she rests the back of it to her forehead feeling frustrated and at a loss.

What can I do...?]

[They're getting a pet! Johnny is very excited about this since he hasn't picked out a pet in decades. But someone is keeping him waiting.]

Cherry hurry up and get here! There's so many animals here I don't know which one to choose.

{OOC: Feel free to run into Johnny before Cherry arrives, both of them at the Pet cafe, or after while they are on they way back home?}

[This -- this is just not acceptable. There's so much... happy. It's positively nauseating. Whatever is going on, Xellos is not going to let himself starve. Instead, he's going to teleport around and look for someone who can be... convinced into a more agreeable mood.]

[In a mostly calm voice -- only an incredibly skilled person could tell how much he's straining:] My, my. Forget about the dead boy so soon, have you? So fickle.


((OOC: Xellos hates life today. :\ Anyone who is effected by the Happy Event and wants to be trolled is encouraged to tag! Anyone who wants Xellos to get rough with them should contact me OOC to hook that up, since he's totally provokable for a change. Individual threads that will contain violence will have warnings, but be assured that I shan't spring violence on you unless you contact me for perms. &hearts))

[ Blame Ichigo for this. Sounds drowsy, and there are water sounds in the background ]

Who wants to give a pretty girl a back rub?
