Musings

Everyone settling in post-chaos? I seriously hope this sort of thing happens doesn't happen all the time; bit bad for deposits and whatnot, doubt the leases take "renovation by psychologically disturbed and possibly rabid mob and other unnatural disasters" into account.

It would make one hell of a marketing campaign for getting people into the city though. "Experience The Wilds of Seattle - just remember to get all your shots first. And bring your cricket bat with you."

Yes, I know this is [...] very behind. Like a complete prat I set up shop in the exact place that apparently screamed "dinner" to the roaming hordes, so consequently the electronics, much like everything else, have gone the way of the dodo. You try replacing expensive toys with no steady income. It's an absolute nightmare.

[Private to Dot]

Thanks for everything! I... sort of probably definitely wouldn't be where I am now if you hadn't done what you did.

Can I take you to lunch? The place I work doesn't really... exist, anymore, so it's not like I have anything better to do.

[Private to Bly]

I'm starting to clean up - have you been home yet? There's- Your stuff is sort of... I mean, it's probably fixable. I'll help?

[Private to J. Copeland]

Thank you!!!!!!!

[Public]
Uh, so. Does anybody need anybody to like, do... anything?

I sort of don't have a job anymore, so... yeah. I guess it's time to do new things! Make a difference! ... Or play video games and go out to lunch.

Anybody want to go out to lunch?

I don't know what to do.

Does anybody have anything that turns our powers off? Like off-off. Or-

I can't take this anymore

Or I guess, like Valium or something? Every time they're around

Well this is a nice little forum you've got here. Very homey. Provided I lived in a hive, anyway.

I've got a question though. In need of some information, actually. Does anyone know where I might be able to find a halfway decent chip shop around here? They do have those here, right? God I hope so. Preferably cheap.

Sparke Industries is hosting a toy drive for the Seattle Children's Hospital at the mall downtown. Donations are being accepted right up until 10 PM Christmas Eve.

Happy Holidays.

I'm sure it would help the cause if you made an appearance.

[He is troubled, to say the least, after reading the article, and left wondering if it's some youngster who doesn't know any better being allowed all this creative licence and encouraging others to do whatever they feel is 'right' and break the law in the process.]


Whatever the papers say, I don't see a problem with vigilantes being subject to the criminal justice system like all us mere mortals. Whether it works or not is a different matter altogether, and one you can certainly go campaign with the Republicans over, but no one should be above the law, even if you do happen to have x-ray vision or can breathe fire out of your ass.

Hey, you free to talk when I get home?

[private to a. morgenstern]
I'm fine. I got a stitch in my cheek, and they kept me until the drugs wore off. They wanted me to thank you for the generous donation.

I owe you.

[private to j. whitmire]
I'm not going to be able to make it into work , I sort of- I kind of I'm not feeling so great.

If someone knows Liesel Hartwig personally, could you tell me where her apartment is? I would like to come and visit her.


[a few minutes later, the query disappears from public view]

Okay. Hypothetically, you're walking down the street - you're listening to your IPod, you're thinking about the tuna salad you had for lunch, you're not paying attention. The most beautiful girl you've ever seen walks in front of you and you bump into each other. Apologies are made and she's gone before you can even catch her name.

You know though that this girl, this woman is someone special. But she's already out of your sight.

What do you do? (Note: your answer will have the endless thanks of one Fabian Greene. Make it good)

On another unrelated note, where's the coolest place in town to get wasted?

I... do not even know what my life is. Seriously.

A homeless guy grabbed me and danced with me on my way out. Seriously. Grabbed, danced.

Soooo much joy. Holy crap.

It's been a weird couple of days, I guess? I mean, that was good, but... I don't even know! I've got work in a couple of hours, but I'm just waiting to see what else happens today. Amazing? Not amazing?

[locked to a. morgenstern]
Probably shouldn't even ask but are you okay? I mean, I haven't actually talked to you in like[...] a week or whatever, but I was just wondering.

Still drinking?

Things I need to avoid:
People having sex
Apparently, everything
[...] Everything.

So, if, say, your mom's still back home, and you're here and there's a holiday coming up, what would you do? I'd try to cook a turkey myself, but I think the Bathos doesn't need itself set on fire.

Can you get Chinese food, like how you can on Christmas?

You've got Thursday night all to yourself. I'm taking Bly out around 4 and we're gonna catch a flick later in the evening!

Does anyone have an apartment they're not using? Preferably one on a corner, not on the first floor, with no neighbors? If you're going on vacation or something, I'll house sit. For free.

Or that I could pay I just need it for a couple of hours, sometimes. I'll pay. Even if you're just at work or something, or...

I sound insane. Or like I'm trying to rob somebody.

Hi. I know you don't know me, but Adam Morgenstern has two vials of the ADAM drug that he took from me, saying he'd give them to you. They're supposed to be dangerous, and [...] I don't think he's going to give them both to you.

Don't let him keep them. They're not his to keep. Thanks. My name is Jess Tailor, I live in Bathos. [Cell Number here]

If- I don't know if you're his friend, or anything, but keep an eye out for him. I think he needs it.

[...] Did you know you can't half-cook popcorn, then start it again when the power's back on?

In related news, it's hard to concentrate on pulling a battery out of a smoke alarm while it's... alarming. There are reasons my mom didn't let me cook.

So, yeah, if you live in Bathos, there's nothing actually on fire! Well, not anymore. Even though the microwave's a little-

... scorched.

[After the out-tage]

Anyone know what went on the last fifteen minutes?

Filtered from A. Morgenstern, D. Hockney

SO. PEOPLE.

General Consensus: Creations that cross over do have some form of 'Ability'. Correct? This isn't asking for what you've got or don't have, just that they exist. Across the board, pretty much.

Right?

I'm not asking for me.

jesus there needs to be some kind of welcoming committee who tells people these things

I can't sleep.

And I'm hallucinating.

That chair just moved by itself.

Invisible forces partying in my house. I'm going crazy. Great.

So, I'm downtown, it's my night off, and I just had the worst date notdate date sort-of-date of my life.

Somebody wants to come down and go to Gameworks with me, I know you do. Or get pizza. Or coffee. Or anything. We can make it a group thing, if more people want to come. We could see a movie. I don't care I just don't want to take the bus home alone with people I don't know.

Creepers need not apply.

So um.. dudes/dudettes in Hamartia, you might want to avoid the roof for a couple of days. I may or may not have accidently broken the railing just a little bit, last night. Sorry, I’ll have it fixed in a few, I promise! In the meantime, look at the stars from your bedroom windows and find somewhere else for your midnight training sessions (you know who you are! also I hear the dojo’s really awesome). And if you do decide that you can’t keep away, watch out for sharp pointy things and don’t fall off the roof, okay? (Please!)

PS. If anyone finds my skateboard around the building, I would like it back! Just cause it’s fallen off the roof and may be broken, doesn’t mean I don’t want the parts!
