Who: All the fey
When: 9am, after the fires have been put out
Where: Abandoned building outside of the mound
What: A call to arms

Simone had called this meeting. Gathered all the fey she could find that was hiding in Mysteria and brought them there. Sides and standing didn't matter. They had a larger problem at hand. Such things didn't matter now.

The Wild Hunt had begun. She would bet her life that the queen was looking for the star. The fallen star in the Dreaming that had caused all of this. Now humans were getting trapped in a dream state and the only city near the Mound was burning. They had to stop it. She silenced the squabbling with a whistle.

"That is enough. Don't you see what's happening here? The Dreaming is in chaos. The mortal world is slowly falling into ruin as well. The Wild Hunt has began, and we all know what that means. The Wyldefae will be forced to choose or die, and god knows what will happen if the queen gets her hands on the star. We have to take action, and we have to do it now." Her voice was strong and authoritative, the kind of voice that made the others really listen, want the change. "We go into the Dreaming. We find the star. We stop this madness."

"But how will we find it?" A brownie asked meekly, as if afraid of Simone's wrath.

"We work together of course. Pool all of our resources, feuds and squabbles aside. The first one to find it? You will wish for things to return to their rightful state. This is too important not to. We're talking about the Dreaming itself, life as we all know it. We don't have time or chances for anything else. This is it. Now. Who's in?"

Who: Maia, Lara, Evan, Dylan, & Selena
Where: Lara's apartment
When: 3amish
What: Maia goes to check on Lara and finds that someone beat her to the punch

It was three am and Maia was driving to see Lara. She tried to leave a message on Zeke's phone, but the towers near her house must have been knocked down, she couldn't get through. She knew Zeke would be okay, or hoped anyway and couldn't just sit at home. She had to do something. So she got dressed and went to Lara's house to check on her sister and nephew.

Walked into the complex and knocked on Lara's door, urgently, trying to wake her up.

Who: Poppy and Open
When: Mid Morning
Where: Mall
What: Poppy is out window shopping

Poppy had decided to actually get out of bed today, and let James sleep in. He was working hard after all and having nightmares, so she would leave him alone to rest.

She had decided to go window shopping and had found herself outside a shop that had lots of baby clothes and toys and essentials and maternity clothes. She stood looking at all the things through the window, she wanted to go in. But then she would just spend James' money on things it was far too early to be buying...Wouldn't hurt to look right?

She stood outside the window biting her lip trying to decide wether to go in or not.

Who: Lara & Evan & Selena (open to Jordan & Maia & Zeke)
When: Afternoon
Where: Lara & Jordan's New Apartment
What: Decorating the Nursery



Lara cradled her infant son Dylan in her arms as she looked around the walk-in-robe she was going to convert into a small nursery for her son, "Well kiddo, at least you'll be close by. Not to mention you'll have plenty of shelf space... And maybe Evan will have some ideas..."

Not that she was ready to have Dylan sleep in a separate room yet, even if it was only three meters away from her bed and adjoined directly to her own room.

Hearing the doorbell ring, she went to the door and opened it, a genuine smile lighting her face when she saw her visitors, "Hey Sprite, Evan. Come on in."

Who: Lara & open
When: 1:53pm
Where: The streets of Mysteria
What: Lara's going into labour



One hand rubbing at the ache in her back, and the other resting on her belly, Lara stood in front of a shop window, examining a baby mobile hanging in the display, "What do you think baby? Would you like that hanging over your cradle?"

The response, while not entirely unexpected, still came as a surprise, water gushing out from between her legs and splashing onto the pavement beneath her feet. Gasping, Lara clutched the wall for support.

It was time.

Who: Lara & Maia
When: Late Afternoon
Where: Furniture Boutique
What: An unexpected reunion



Lara wandered around the furniture store, looking for a crib for her baby. Not that she'd found a permanent place to live yet, but even if she was still in the B&B when the baby came, he'd have to have somewhere to sleep.

Standing between two cribs, Lara was trying to decide which was better.

Who: Lara & Open
When: Afternoon
Where: On the shore of Devils Lake
What: Lara goes for a walk on the shore of Devil's Lake



After leaving the Spa, Lara didn't have anything else she really needed to do, so she followed her instinct and wandered (well, waddled really) down to the lake shore. Spotting a piece of refuse floating in the water a few meters out, she carefully crouched down, and dipped her fingers into the water, crooking them. At her beckoning, the tide responded promptly, delivering the soggy plastic bag to her hand.

Drawing it out of the water she smiled to herself, "Much better."

Now she just had to stand up again...

Who: Chris and Open
When: just after lunch
Where: The spa
What: Recon mission!

It was a terribly good thing none of her clients were around to witness what Chris was doing around the corner. She was sniffing or attempting to smell her own breath to discern whether or not the pasta salad she had had for lunch was offensive to the nasal passages or not.

She wondered if she could sneakily steal a mint from the buggy looking receptionist of the spa who really didn’t like her. She needed something. She clung to the wall and looked to see the receptionist at the desk. She could see a few of the mints on the table top and they were just asking for her to take one!

She hid behind the wall as soon as the receptionist looked up. “Curses. The wicked witchy spies me.”
