our true selves.

Who: Team Three (aka Team NERD)
What: Celebratory ER Pizza.
When: Uh...forward dated to whenever it can appropriately happen?
Where: The hospital ward where they all ended up.
Warnings: ...I don't even know. Just be warned?

( There was no better way to celebrate, right? Not to have pizza at this point would be...un-American! )

Who: Ted Holloway/Darth Vader, Claudia Walker (NPC)
When: Late. During the third wave of the Camelot assault.
Where: Downstairs hallway, CORE HQ.
What: Claudia runs into Ted. She thought he was on CORE's side, but apparently he's not. She, understandably, is pissed. Long story short: she cracks one of Ted's ribs and Vader comes out to play.

( If you're too weak to defend yourself properly, stand aside and allow me. )

Who: Camelot: James Miller (The man behind the curtain), Nate Roth (The leader), Jennifer Hill, Benjamin Davis (NPC), Lilah St. Fleur, Chris Lancaster, Ted Holloway and Mina Viresh
CORE: Anna Harkness and Rue Murray
What: Attack on CORE. Part three.
When: Friday 2nd April, 11pm.
Where: CORE HQ in San Francisco, California. As well as James being at Camelot HQ, UK.
OOC Info: This is a comms post which means speech and descriptions of sounds only. Private communications between people in the post can be made by changing the subject header in the comment as you would in a journal comment. This is the 'master post' for this event, if you have any pre prepared logs or narratives then please link to them here in the order in which they occur with a note about whether or not comms were on or off so people know if they can react to it and how much. If you have any questions about the format then please IM either myself, Claudie or Heather.
Special note: CORE members being arrested during this block can be heard over the comms but they themselves can only hear who they're talking to. If CORE people want to also communicate on their own comm frequency then feel free!

The first and second wave had already gone in, and the sounds of a full on fight were already echoing through the building. Team Three's job was to search and retrieve and fight when they had to, but mostly they had to make sure no one in CORE got out unless they were being escorted in hand cuffs. Even if they weren't the front lines, that was still just as dangerous.

"Hey guys, I know we've been joking about it but seriously. If it comes down to it? Link arms and chant red rover, red rover! Who knows, it might work?"

Who: Ted Holloway, Brian and Clara (NPC friends)
When: Saturday, March 27, 2010
Where: East Village, New York City
What: One way or another, the war's about to come to an end. Ted decides to go out for a last hurrah with his non-reincarnate friends.
Rating: PG-13 for some casual swearing.

( Oh no, I'm surrounded by single girls, that's not the problem. The problem is that one of them broke my foot and the other is my son. )

Who: Ted Holloway, Juli Cooper (NPC; CORE Paper-Pusher)
When: About thirty minutes after this exchange.
Where: Agency offices, London.
What: Ted MTN-hops to try and coax some information out of CORE personnel. He manages to secure the guard rotation, but has to get creative in order to keep his cover. Luck in love, thy name is not Ted Holloway.

( He was going to wind up on a Valentine's date with the nosiest woman in CORE. He just knew it. )

Who: Jen Hill, Ted Holloway and later Rue Murray
What: Jen shows up just after ten and is met with Agency zombies and a far too alert Ted. Suspicions, confrontations and Poison Ivy interruptions ensue.
Where: The Agency HQ in London
When: Wednesday morning 10:05 AM
Rating: R? Possibility of strong language, definitely some violence and adult content.

( She had a moment of ridiculous panic, thinking back to her conversation with Josh and wondering if machines really had taken over, or maybe this was the beginnings of the zombie apocalypse? )

Who: Jeremiah Radley, Ted Holloway
Where: Dean & Deluca, SoHo, New York City.
When: 5 p.m., Friday
What: Jeremiah Radley meets his great-great-great... etc. grandson. There is coffee, babka, and a heaping serving of awkward.
Rating: No warnings. G-ish.

( He was uncomfortable before he'd even stepped in the door; strangle-tight tie and monkey suit aside, the thought of meeting someone who'd known his father had him on edge. )

Who: Ted Holloway/Darth Vader and Padme Amidala (in the body of Al Peabody)
When: Sunday, August 2, 2009, around 2 am.
Where: Columbia dorms, room 307 (Chez Holloway).
What: Padme takes Vader up on his offer of a meet-and-greet and stops by Ted's room to demand a chance to see her husband.
Rating: PG/PG-13 for situations (talk of violence, arguing and sheer meanness, a kiss) and scattered language. Log complete.

( Anakin, we're not taking relationship advice from you, either. You ARE the stalker school of wooing. )

Who: Al Peabody and Ted Holloway
When: After their journal exchange, late June 2/ early June 3.
Where: Around the Clock Diner, East Village, NYC
What: Coffee. Tiramisu. A whole lot of awkward with an extra helping of anger.
Warnings: None, unless people being willfully mean to each other counts.

( It was too late for real food, but it was never too late at night for pecan pie. )

Who: Al Peabody and Ted Holloway
When: Late April.
Where: Columbia University, English department offices
What: Al once told her student that he could come by to discuss things besides his English assignments. After Vader appears in his head, he makes an appointment to take her up on her offer.
Status: Complete log.

( Roommate. Maybe he could use that as code for 'the Sith Lord that's trying to puppet me.' My roommate's being difficult today. )

Who: Laura Meyhew and Ted Holloway
What: Feeling the Force
When: Monday Evening
Where: Central Park, NYC

( This is nothing. You should try it standing on your head. )

Who Layla and Ted
What A phonecall
Where Their respective homes
When After Ted's little slip, Layla calls

( Ring ring )

Who: Ted Holloway and a customer (NPC)
Where: The Marc Jacobs store on Bleecker Street, NYC
When: Early afternoon, June 10th
What: Ted loses his temper, and Darth Vader seizes an opportunity.

( Later that evening, Ted would be ashamed of himself. The first emotion that he felt wasn’t horror or revulsion, but relief. Relief mixed with Vader's triumph. )

Who: Ted Holloway and Laura Meyhew
Where: The Marc Jacobs store on Bleecker Street, Manhattan, NYC.
When: Just before closing, Sunday night.
What: Laura senses a disturbance in the Force. Or, rather, Ted. Uh, surprise?
Warnings: None yet!

( Closing was always a challenge. Even when the store had cleared out, there were clothes to fold and registers to balance. )
