Musings

is it working

how can you tell if the post goes THROUGH HOW DO YOU TURN BIG LETTERS OFF STUPID LIttle letters

oh there

( broadcasted from the Hamartia complex )

If you - general you, darlings - are an hour and a half late for work, the reason should never be that your bad hair day gave you a conniption.

And if that is the reason, then for god's sake make up something slightly less ridiculous and lie your about-to-be-unemployed little ass off.

Anyone want to go unicorn hunting searching with me this weekend?

Bat will contact you to hand off communication device. Vigilante business. Ask no questions - just get device.

Located Corbinian Jack's body. Funeral will proceed. Must find adequate cemetery. Attendance small, only those necessary. For safety, must see who invited before you contact.

Okay, so riddle me this, riddle me that, riddle me everything over the sun can somebody explain what's going on? People end up dead, but the papers don't say anything. And when they do, it don't exactly compute from what they say. Like they're leaving stuff out. Standard for papers, I know. Don't have vocal cords, so they can't talk, and the people that make them tend to muzzle them puzzle them just don't guzzle them just to make sure, but that's no excuse. And then there's the guy in spandex and heavy artillery plastered all over the building. And I'm pretty sure it's not just me that's seeing them. I don't know if he's supposed to be somebody I'm supposed to look for or stay away from or if he's coming to town to do birthday parties or what. ...Although anybody who carries loaded guns to a birthday party should have their head examined. People who would pay for that, too. So...some help? I'm a little lost confused scared lost.

I'm sorry to tell you all, those that care. I know there are many of you.

Corbinian is dead.

The decision made at the meeting he assembled stands. Look forward to more on the topic.

I was going to filter this but I figured I'd ask for a wider set of opinions and knowledge. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I need to drop out of University of Seattle for this semester. Any current students or alumni who could possibly give a hand on the method? I'm not around during the [...] day anymore and am unsure of how to proceed without screwing myself up for eternity here.

On a [...] different subject, as I've found myself [...] already having to share this and it's no secret about Rory and I being friendly, the public should know that

...and Rory says no.

I'll take your help. With Freddie.

You doing alright?

Hello, fellow citizens! I am Bunny. I was formerly a comic book store clerk by a day and a model by...day. I'm not working at the store anymore and I am currently looking for some employment. I work a mean cash register and I am really flexible on the modeling thing. I'll do just about anything but nudes. Inquire within!

Thinking about going away for the weekend- not terribly far, just nipping a jet down to Napa for a few days- but that leaves me in a bit of a fix.

The people who own the cottage I'll be staying in don't allow pets, for unfathomable reasons. And Jackson [Harrison's peppery-gray Yorkie pup] can hardly stay on his own for four days, but I hate to put him up in a kennel. Last time I tried he wouldn't sleep for a week afterwards.

Anyone want to learn an extra bit of cash with a bit of dogsitting? Jacks isn't high maintenance in the least.

Aubade residents preferred. He's allergic to dust and mold.

I saw you leaving the lobby as I was coming down the stairs, but I didn't manage to catch you before you were gone. You don't look well, Sam, is there something wrong? I could see the dark circles under your eyes even from that far. I'd be glad to help you with anything, you know, if there's some sort of problem you need to have dealt with. Just say the word, and I'll do it.

I'm studying, not fighting sleep and wanted

We're out of coke and I'm scared and the light went out and I don't think we can afford another lightbulb and I can't sleep with the light off

I can't believe you guys are all going out to

Hey Rory? I know you're down the hall and all, but I'm too lazy to get up. And you're typing a lot What's up with that vigilante thing? Can I come I don't want to be alone again

THINK BEFORE YOU PUT ON THE MASK

556 South Hampton Street

[There's a body at this address. It's a masked body; a masked hero--a very dead hero. Small time, extremely local, Electron was an electromagnetic Creation ability that targeted muggers in her filthy little neighborhood. Shot twice in the chest and once in the head. Someone heard the shots and the house is crawling with police already.]

Pretty useful thing these forums, keeping all us Creations connected. Like putting us in a giant fish bowl for some twelve year old whiz kid to stumble across and tap on the glass. Least until he gets bored and tells the world about us.

Ah I'm just kidding nobody'd believe it. They'd probably think we were just crazy like those people who believe in aliens and bigfoot.

So I suppose I should introduce myself huh? Name's Nathan Collins, and I'm fresh outa Musings. Does anyone know where I can find the Police Department? I was a cop back in Musings and was hoping to see about joining up here in Seattle.

You said to keep you updated, Silas and I kinda [...] forgot until now. Remember that play?

[...]

I didn't get cast.

[Immediately after this]

Mr. Morgenstern? [...] Could I bother you?

Hey um Miss Hockney? I wanted to check in on you and ask if you had made any progress on those cases I brought to you?

Mainly about my brother - I figured out the other one myself. Actually a friend kind of did, but it's pretty awesome even if I haven't figured out how to make it permanent yet. It's nothing like those things you tested - I can basically wish things into existence. Is that amazing or what?

Yeah, I'm proud of it. I can just bet you're turning up your nose, but HA MISS DETECTIVE I FIGURED IT OUT NOT YOU...Sam this is a bad idea

But - I wanted you to know I figured that out. And wanted to know if you'd figured anything out about my brother. He's been on my mind more and with the powers now it just feels wrong to be doing nothing in my thoughts. And I haven't found anything when looking on my own.
