The letter reads:

Who: Lloyd & Tabby
When: Early afternoon
Where: Thorpe's
What: Job hunting



Lloyd was parked on a bench, wolfing down a burger when he spotted the ‘Help Wanted’ sign in the window of the garage. He’d driven into town for supplies and something immediate to fill his growling stomach. Waking up to the smell of blood had done nothing for his sense of calm, but it had kicked in his appetite.

He dusted crumbs off his shirt as he crossed the street. Money would be a good thing, and working on cars? Piece of cake. He’d never met an engine he couldn’t make sit up and do tricks. Better to get a job now than in a few days time when the new moon made his eyes change.

Lloyd came to the garage door and squinted, peering into the darker interior. "Hey, anyone around?"

Who: Max & Tabby.
When: Morning.
Where: Thorpe's.
What: Max comes seeking a few answers from Tabby.

Being Mysteria born and raised herself, as well as having been in the same grade as Tabby in school, Max knew all about the tragedy that had been in Tabby's life. In fact, knowing about the Thorpe family was the reason Max was walking into the garage, not to have her car fixed, but to ask Tabby a few things. The dreams of those in town weren't getting any better. In fact, they were getting worse. Max had ran into that being again in someone's dream and this time she had caught just a glimpse.

"Tabby," Max called out as she stepped out of the cold and into the slightly warmer garage.

Who: Tabby and Open
When: Closing time
Where: Outside Thorpes
What: Tabby thinks she sees him again

Tabby turned around as she put her keys back in to her bag and looked up and stared at the end of the road. “Dino?” She gasped softly. She looked stepped forward once. She couldn’t see clearly. But something made her heart leap in to her throat. The way he was stood, he looked like her long lost brother.

She stepped forward carefully. “Dino?” She asked and felt as though her legs were about to buckle beneath her as he waved back at her. “Dino!” She shouted in joy and rushed up towards him. However as she got closer he turned around the corner. She followed and stopped dead in her tracks.

He wasn’t there. She rubbed at her head and glanced around again. “Am I going mad?”

Who: Tabby and OTA
When: mid morning
Where: Thorpes
What: Tabby's suffering from the cold

Tabby collapsed to the ground in the garage with a yelp and a clatter, the contents of her arms scattering across the floor. She panted as the pain in her shoulder and hip stabbed through to her. Taking deep breaths she attempted to stand on her own but sunk back to the floor cursing. She probably shouldn't have come today but she couldn't loose another days business. The garage had what heating on that she could afford but it was so cold her old injuries and bad bones just seized up on her. The pins permanently inside of her were freezing to the core. She wondered how long she'd be knelt on the ground for until either she could push herself up or she got some help.

She hated feeling like this, like she was an old woman at times. It worried her beyond words as to how bad she would be when arthritis kicked in. There were times she couldn't walk because of the pain and the winter was hell. She'd migrate, down to Florida. Probably why all old folk end up there. She tried again to pushed herself up off of the cold concrete floor which was not helping her limbs. "Stupid body." She grumbled as she didn't have the strength in her on arm she could move.

Who: Tabby and Open
When: 6pm
Where: Outside Thorpes
What: Tabby thinks she's seeing things

Brakes went screeching to a halt and Tabby paused for a few seconds to gather herself. After taking a few moments to think she leapt out of her car, "Oh god, oh god oh god." She mumbled to herself, "Please don't have hit them, please don't have hit them!" She moaned as she looked underneath her car and all around. She blinked and rubbed the back of her neck. She couldn't have hit whoever had run across the front of her car. They must have rushed off. She put a hand to her chest to try and calm her heart and kicked the tyre of her truck as her heart raced and images and emotions of her crash when younger flashed in front of her eyes, she hated having to brake like that.

"Damned flashback cr-" She blinked looking out along the street. "Dino?" She whispered to herself. "Dino!?" She shouted and the figure ran away. She followed on foot for a while before she decided she had just been seeing things. She rubbed the back of her neck and walked towards the car and Thorpes slowly. "Y'know...I think I'm going mad." She said rubbing her hand over her heart.

Who: Ash and Tabby
When: 12pm Onwards
Where: Thorpes, on the road and a hotel in devil's lake
What: Ash is going to surprise Tabby with a romanitc getaway

Ash had been very busy this morning, he had bought some nice clothes, because he really didn't have any. He had rented a car, the bikes would not have them arriving in nice clothes like they left, got them a hotel with a whole two stars and bought flowers! Okay they were cheap flowers but they were pretty and he was poor! More so now he'd payed for this date.

But he figured it was worth it because they'd not actually been out on a date, or really out at all, and he wanted to surprise her and show her a good time!

He stopped the car just around the corner from Thorpes. Yes he knew she wouldn't be ready now, but then it wouldn't be a surprise! Plus he knew she was getting changed here so she had to have her clothes for the evening! Bwahahahaha!

He got out of the car and brushed his jacket, he looked strange in a nice pale blue shirt - but no tie that was just wrong - and black soft jacket and black pants with shiny shoes! But didn't look half bad, just a little odd. He picked up the flowers and walked into the garage, when he spotted Tabby and relised she hadn't noticed him yet he coughed politly and held the flowers in front of him.

Who: Tyson and Tabby
When: Afternoon
Where: Thorpes
What: Tabby needs a mechanic, and Ty needs a job.



Tyson didn't go back to Miles' place directly after school, instead wandering the streets of Mysteria, thinking. He'd found something out the previous day which made him feel obligated to stay in Mysteria, and he was ambivalent about that. Conflicted. A part of him wanted to leave, a part of him wanted to stay, but no matter what he wanted to do, he would stay. He had to, no matter what it cost him.

He did know one thing for sure though, he wasn't going to let himself become indebted to Miles. Depending on people made you beholden to them, gave them power over you, and that was something he just wasn't willing to allow. His usual line of work, burglary, was obviously a bad idea in a town so small as this one, so when his eye fell on the "Now Hiring" sign in the mechanic's workshop, he stopped in his tracks. He could do that, he'd worked in a chop-shop for a while, so he could pretty much pull apart cars and put them back together in his sleep.

Heading into the garage, he approached the mechanic, whose legs he could see sticking out from under a vehicle. Bending down to look under the car so he could get a look at the mechanic, he was slightly surprised to see the person lying on the creeper was a woman rather than the man he'd expected. It didn't much matter to him though.

"Hey," He addressed the mechanic briefly to get her attention, "I'm here about the job."

Getting a look at the job she was doing, Ty reached into to her toolbox, selected the next tool she was going to need, and offered it to her.

Who: Ash, Tabby, Tyler (NPC)
When: early evening
Where: Ash's place
What: Ash gets a surprise as he is forced to take care of his son for a while without warning and Tabby is just shocked.

Ash sat down on the sofa and handed Tabby and sandwhich, they had gotten his place pretty clean and tidy today so that was good. It would never stay that way! Plus it highlighted that it was quite a shaby apartment in the first place. "So i was thinking, I have Saturday off work, do you wanna do something?"

Who: Taini, Tabby and Ly
When: morning
Where: Close to Thorpes Garage
What: Taini spots Candy Boy!

It was another day in Mysteria. Another rather dull and unassuming day of her life as a genie. Her chat with Ben had actually really helped her. She didn’t have any family now, of course she didn’t, they perished so long ago. But she did have Casey and she did have some friends. She was just really scared about being free. It had been something she had craved so long now I was within reach and tangible she was terrified of the prospect of being alone. She needed to talk to Casey and find out what would happen to her afterwards when she was free. She also needed to ask if he would wish for some things she needed to exist afterwards.

She went for a walk to clear her head. She liked to do that. She found herself walking towards Thorpes and spotted that familiar cart stuck out from the door. She smiled thinking of the sweet boy. She walked over and popped her head around the door and spotted his butt up in the air as he was searching underneath a workbench. “Hey Candy Boy.” She purred to him.

Who: Tabby, Ash and Stefan
When: Late evening
Where: Replace with location.
What: Replace with summary.

Tabby knocked on Ash’s door and waited for it to open, in her hands she had a bag full of food and another bag full of cleaning stuff. She was sick and tired of the state of Ash’s place. Honestly, wasn’t cleanliness next to godliness? Then again god and angels apparently were two separate things. She tapped on the door again and rocked her head humming to herself.

What was taking him so long? She let out a sigh, he was in wasn’t he? It was his day off! He usually spent it sleeping. She didn’t understand how he didn’t get a belly on him, he never seemed to exercise beyond anything energetic with her. It must be the fact he was an angel.

She knocked for the third time.

Who: Tabby and Ash
When: Night
