Who: Freddy and Caleb
Where: Their dorm room
When: Tuesday, September 6, in the evening
What: Weirdness is happening and life must go on.

The air around the foot of his bed has been cold for a while now but it's starting to spread, getting worse each night as the shadow of a person at the foot of his bed keeps trying and keeps failing to be heard. Freddy wishes he could help but he doesn't know how. Alternately, if he can't figure out what to do, he wishes that it wouldn't get so frustrated and freeze him out of his bed when it obviously doesn't know what to do about this, either. Neither wish coming true, he sits curled into a blanket, back to the headboard, chin resting on the pillow he's pulled up close to his chest as he stares into the odd non-darkness beyond. He vaguely contemplates digging out some sweatpants and a hoodie, maybe a pair of socks. Maybe he should do some homework. Does he even have any homework? He can't remember. His eyes start to slide closed, only to snap open again, a bit wider than before, when the seemingly harmless ghost in front of him becomes something far more terrifying against the back of his eyelids.

Who: Caleb et Vincent
Where: Vault Records
When: August 10, around 3 PM
What: An introductory meeting; let's say rated 'careful' for work due to my and Caleb's inevitable profanity.

The opening of a new semester always means a kick-up in business for Caleb, and not just necessarily from Marrowston's surrounding area. Hauling one's ass to or from Whitecliff is ...exactly that, a haul, and so most of its university populace get their product a bit more locally, but--word of mouth is still the most effective advertising, he's discovered, legality or none. Ergo: word travels, and he has enough regular customers to make the trip worthwhile around once a week (or sometimes twice) before classes get back into session.

( This conveniently also heralds a trip to Vault Records... )

Who: Sabine and Caleb.
Where: Sweetwild, on the bank of the Sweet River, just outside southern Thornwell.
When: August 3rd, sometime before sundown.
What: PG; Sabine arrives a stranger in a strange land, and meets a...stranger.

The last she truly remembered was finding a taxi and telling the driver to take her to the beach. Any beach. She'd lived in Chicago all her life, yet she'd never once been near the shore. It was her first big adventure by herself and she wanted to start it right, before her father found her, dragged her back to a life she didn't want.

( She'd been dropped off at one of the many beached dotting the shore of Lake Michigan, a small, deserted strip of land that met the water. )
