NO EXITS

Uh, guys?

Weed is legal here. So this is clearly the best alternate universe or timeline or whatever.

Who has ID and cash to stock up? Technically I'm like 56 according to my ID but somehow I don't think anyone is going to believe that here.

We don't have to go back to school or jobs again, do we?

[HAWKINS CREW]

Alright, Little Sheepies. Time to check in.

[Filter: Vax & Eddie]

About the sword.

Vax and I had thrown some ideas around since it stuck with me, and so far nothing has really seemed to work. The week we were in Irkalla I just had it. That week it was easy to attune to it and that week, it very much felt like it belonged to me and that we were connected. I wasn't (fortunately) in a lot of places where I needed to use it, or do anything with it, but I think it has a fair amount of power.

Since I've come back, I've not been able to attune to it. It works really well as a sword, but I don't know if it's just that I'm not a half-elf (I was that week), or that I'm not magical, or if there's something else. Or maybe it only had those properties in Irkalla, but I don't think that's it.

Anyway, that week when we were all getting visions of like other lives, there was one where Vax and I were on a quest together - the sword was a family sword, it had been lost and I was looking to retrieve it and bring it back to my Father. I can add more about that, but it feels like it might be relevant.

Inspired by the knock-off soda machine in the cafeteria, favorite soda combinations. Ice cream is a bonus.

One, two, three, go.

[FILTER: EVERYONE THAT ATTENDED D&D THE DAY BEFORE*]

Never really had an audience before running a D&D session. Same time next week, apocalypses permitting? It'll be another one shot, so anyone available is free to join or watch. You can bring the same character as before or make a new one.

[FILTER: LADIES 18+]

So ladies, some of you may have seen Steve around campus. Solid guy, cool hair, good person to know when shit goes down. The guy is terrified of asking any of you on a date. It's sweet, really. Pretty sure he's worried one of you will eat him alive. But honestly? He could use that a nice night. Nothing heavy, no commitment required. If you're interested in a low key evening with a solid dude, hit me up.

*OOC: Was I originally intending to make an IC/OOC event for Eddie's D&D game? Yes. Instead I was mostly sick for the last three days and slammed at work before that. So whether your character played D&D or was a spectator for Eddie's one shot on day four, you're free to pretend and comment/improv what happened before, during or after the game.

There has to be a way to be more useful around here. I feel as if I have no purpose other than existing, and I don't like that.

Okay.

I'm feeling generous. Or maybe it's all this alcohol I've been drinking. I'm going to ask a question, and you're going to give me a completely genuine, honest answer. If it's a bullshit answer, I'm going to tell you to fuck off so don't get butthurt over it.

What is you want most in the universe?

And don't fucking say you wanna go home or you want a stable universe. That's already being worked on. I mean YOU. Personally.

Is anyone else sort of bouncing everywhere you go? Sort of like moon walking. Not Michael Jackson moon walking, I mean like the videos of the astronauts on the moon. Boing! Boing! It's kind of fun.

HELLFIRE CLUB. Day Four. Come if you dare.


[HARRINGTON + BUCKLEY]

Yeah, so I don't know if this is because of that fairy smell thing or this has to do with all the other weird things going on, but my ears I'm wearing a bandana this week.

You guys okay?

I had to leave my dorm room in the middle of the night because there was a lifelike second Fen in my room. It was propped up and staring at me. Uh Anyone else with that issue?

Yeah, and we're in the void. Everything else seems fairly "normal."

[HAWKINS SURVIVORS]

Uh, guys?

How bad would it be if I admitted I haven't seen it a single fly since getting here?

Like, there aren't really that many, right? Probably not a big deal? Just me being paranoid?

Does the hat not come off at all?

[FILTER: Robin Buckley]

Calling it now. Cowboy week is not my week. I almost miss zombie week.

Oh, this is interesting. Apparently, I'm alive this week. I mean, alive alive. I don't know what to do with such a rapid heartbeat. And my skin is so warm and dry! You know what, I don't like this. It's a little too weird for me. Do I really have to wait the whole week to go back to normal? Maybe if I just died again, that would fix it.

[FILTERED: Stranger Kids]

ever one Everyone all goof? We didny didn't loose anyone
did we,?

I'm sorry, what are we all doing here?

I've been staring at this movie poster in my living room this entire week and it just occurred to me that the sword my character, Leoren Silverwatcher, carries is my moonblade from Irkalla.

Also I found our costumes from Much Ado at a thrift store of all places. So I guess if we're trying to figure out if things from Derleth are here, that stuff is.

[Eliot]

I refuse to go on the Internet before coffee. Please tell me they've moved on to something else and that no one has tried to yell at you for dating a married woman because they thought you were me?

If that's one of you tearing up pavement in a school bus during school hours...

Congrats, I guess.

Also maybe stop. You're earning celebrity status on the police radio, and I can't express how much I never asked for this job.

[[Following from this part of the school bus adventure plot, just around the time of the police showing up.]]

Okay. I can't believe I'm saying this, but I give up: the coffee pot wins. I normally love this coffee, but not like this. Not like this.

I've tried spells, lids, giving free cups to the whole damn classroom, drinking the entire thing myself, smashing it on the floor, throwing it out the window, pleading with it in every language I know and some I don't, but it keeps reappearing in the teacher's lounge and it won't. stop. refilling. If anyone thinks they can help me keep up with emptying it before it can overflow, please do. It's the huge coffee pot with the vines growing on the sides.

Uh, sorry if any of us is stuck on cleanup. You're gonna need a lot of wet floor signs.

[Stranger Things Gang]

I'm going to help and see if I can find the city's mind.

STEVE HARRINGTON, NANCY WHEELER, EDDIE MUNSON:

Okay, I'm over this.

Linda has no personality of her own.

I ask her what movie she wants to watch. "Whatever you want to watch, honey."

I ask her what kind of music she likes, "I like whatever you like."

I ask her what she wants for dinner, "What are you in the mood for?"

It's like she has no personality other than Please Robin, and THIS? DOES NOT PLEASE ME.

Anyone else a senior in high school?

I'm living in my family's house. My mom, dad and my brother are here. But they're different...in a creepy way.

[Laura]

How's home school?

STEVE HARRINGTON, NANCY WHEELER, EDDIE MUNSON:

Um. So there's a girl at my place, and we live together. And share a bed, and SHE LOOKS JUST LIKE PHOEBE CATES. HER NAME IS LINDA. Yeah, I know. Really weird right?

And we work at Clothes Clothes Clothes (oh how original) together.

And I'm just rolling with this. She is really into me, and she's so cute.

So, shot in the dark here, but does anyone have some video games? A Nintendo would be awesome, but I'd be good with an Atari. Really hoping there's a Nintendo with Legend of Zelda, but video games in general are kinda the goal.

Unless someone wants to run a new D&D campaign, but I need to make some more dice for that, first. How'd you play without dice, Eddie?

[Eleven]
I found a system to play on!

We just have to promise not to throw the controllers.

[Eddie]

Want to smoke and you help me make a character for D&D?

[Natasha]

So I think I have a cr. How many relationships have you been in? I'm going on the assumption that we both suck at keeping them.

[FILTERED: 18+]

For those of you who have only smoked the magic greenhouse weed fresh? Can confirm it tastes better and gets you more high when it's properly dried and cured. Hit me up if you're in need. No charge. Just remember to save your non-super powered drug dealer if zombies attack again or something. I don't have any pipes or paper but I can show you how to use an apple. Uh, we might need more apples.

[STEVE HARRINGTON, ROBIN BUCKLEY, NANCY WHEELER]

If El and Dustin haven't figured out there's weed in the greenhouse already, it's only a matter of time. Dustin knows I sell so, if anyone wants them to get the hugs not drugs talk, it probably shouldn't come from me.

[DUSTIN HENDERSON]

You hanging in there?

[ETA: ANYONE FROM HAWKINS, INDIANA]

Okay, so there are wizards and people claiming to be gods and whatever the hell, right? ...Why don't we ask them how to destroy someone like Vecna? Maybe they can give us some fucking magic or some shit?

[FILTER: Robin Buckley, Eddie Munson, Nancy Wheeler]

You're never going to guess what I found.

Also what's with the post with like 800 comments?

[OOC: Warning for marijuana use discussion!]

I can't be the only one wanting a little excitement of the non-murderous kind. So let's play

FUCK, MARRY, KILL

Derleth edition.


Maybe a little murderous. But just in the fictional way.

[Laura]

You want to chill at the pool today?

[Eddie]

Heard you did your D&D at that game night. Did a lot of people play? Maybe I'll hit that up next time.

[Strange]

If you want to play Chess again, let me know.

[WHEELER & HARRINGTON]

So I think Robin just asked me out on a date...?

She said she was going to make me pizza.

That's a date, right?

( Read more... )

I just wanted to thank everyone who helped with boosting the magic and with planting new seeds that will hopefully lead to an even more plentiful harvest than this world has seen before. I am hopeful it will stick beyond the reset, but only time will tell. It's been so wonderful to see everyone working together, and for such a good cause.

In the meantime, I think I will be spending time in the Green communing with nature. You can learn a lot by speaking with plants what it's not that weird and that whole thing with the zombies was kinda awful, I want to make sure there have been no lasting effects from all that death.

Soooo I don't really have a point to this other than to say if you're wandering around and see me talking to what appear to be nothing I'm actually talking to the trees?? I swear it's not that weird

[Eddie]

So, um, we never got the chance to really talk after that whole weird fae ball thing. But you were, like, really good with all of that storytelling at the game night? So I guess I just wanted to say hi and yeah this is really awkward I'm so sorry.

[Voice post]

"What the shit?! Eddie! Where the hell did you go? Anybody?! Steve, Robin, Nancy! Lucas, do you copy? This is Gold Leader!"

What the hell is this, some kind of BBS? HELLO? This is Gold Leader, looking for the Watergate Quartet, Vecna's Lure, or ANYONE ELSE WHO KNOWS WHAT THAT MEANS!

So... just so we're clear, this is what it usually looks like? Nice sky, small area. Stocked kitchen. Warded rooms. (Hi Vax! I promise not to try and talk your ear off every morning. I'm also going to try and shower before you wake up. If I can. I don't know your sleeping habits so I may be way off on this. But I will try!)

It's nice. I mean, nicer than the last two weeks anyway. Toon Town was pretty neat. Weird as hell, and I'm still not over 2D cartoons being in the 3D world. I kind of wish I'd been able to find and keep Jerry as my very own mischievous pet mouse. I love him.

So we (potentially) have five more days of quiet? Just getting to relax?

ETA: Hey Mr/Ms/Mrs Wizards: can any of you magic some bathing suits?
