PARABOLICAL GRAFFITI

This place is slowly starting to feel like home again.

There are strange robberies going on; the Press is trying to dig into the story, but the police have no leads. I know that a lot of you that hang around these boards hear all kinds of things, so I was wondering if maybe you've heard anything? They're calling them the 'Ghost Robberies' on account of someone being capable of slipping in and out of the places they've hit without leaving any sign of entry. It's mostly been clothing; so...it's, what, theft by the rabid shopaholic? I'm not sure.

Any information on the matter would be greatly appreciated. So far, I'm empty handed. And clueless, for that matter.

There are a lot of people out there who could use food, shelter, and clothing.

I was wondering if anyone out there wanted to help contribute? Even if it comes down to clothes that you don't wear anymore or a few cans of food that you think you can spare. Every last bit can and most certainly will help.

If so, feel free to drop by our site. My friend Clark is collecting everything over at the Daily Press [address]. He'll gladly take any donations you have to offer. They'll be given to people who could really use some help right now. I'm sure they'd appreciate it.

Maybe Holiday's aren't so bad. Believe it or not this is the first time I've ever done Christmas. So I don't really know what to say except thanks, really. For everything. I hope everyone's happy with their stuff.

I'm not used to this, actually. Thank you.

I never thought I'd say it in a place like this, but I pretty much had the best Christmas ever this year. Thanks for all the gifts, and I hope everyone I bought for liked theirs, too.

EXCEPT SOME CREEPER BOUGHT ME AND SAM DISGUSTING SEX STUFF AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHO
Okay, so it's not that
SHUT UP, HEATHER!

I think I like this holiday. Sam managed to conclusively proove just how amazing people on this planet think my Grandfather is, and while they did give him multicoloured armour which he'd completely throw a snit about the rest is fairly accurate.

Makes me miss my own armour.

Happy Holidays LA

Apparently I've gained a son since I last checked because I've got a mug that says #1 Mom now.

I think I might keep the tree up until New Years. It seems too nice to take down just yet.

I heard through the grapevine you're dating a Power Ranger?

RED RANGER ACTION FIGURES!!!!!!!

BEST. CHRISTMAS. EVER.

[ooc: I greatly apologize for the caps. Mack is excited.]

SANTA DIDN'T FORGET! HE DIDN'T!

christmas is a weird holiday.


for new people at Hyperion: Psycho Mantis.
umm.. people who know call me 'Mantis'. do not remember any other name.

I am getting much better, typing less erratic. shields better. SORROW helped. it was strange being dead. Snake much older.



still dangerous. probably not good idea to come to room unless peter or nathan.

I think I wanna take advantage of the time between Christmas and New Year's and cross a few more things off my wedding list.

I staked a vamp wearing reindeer antlers last night. That was a first. Yes, I went patrolling on Christmas, so? That's how I get MY jollies.

I've been away from the internet the past little while. But I saw someone.

Benjy? Where are you hiding? You're a teenager. That's terrifying.

I use to get to fly North and spend Christmas skiing and making snow forts, and trying to stay up late to see if I could catch Santa. And my mom would always make these Sugar Cookies, but she only let me have two because she said they were bad for me.

It makes me almost miss my parents. Almost.

What's Your policy on letting one of Your Chosen Slayers use my sword for a bit to fight off someone?

Dead-ended hunts. Always my favorite.

Thank God they were selling chocolate nearby. Something to snack on later when I get even more annoyed with the way this is all going.

We need to talk about that exorcising thing.

Ummm..a friend of mine from my LA just arrived here, and wants to come visit. Is that okay? I promise he's safe. He just wanted me to warn you so you didn't attack him.

...and if you see something that looks like a velociraptor, don't attack her either. She's really nice, and will be coming with Chase, my friend. Her name is Old Lace, and is actually a deinonychus.

In six days someone's going to be born. In six days someone's going to die. The birth and death will happen a nanosecond apart.

ETA: Because SOME people are highly sensitive/stupid/ignorant...

The above? Reference to the coming of the new year. 2005 will die, and 2006 will be born.


To all the parents who are reading this: If you have young children, and you're letting them go on the computer unsupervised, it's your fault if they read bad words on this thing. And it also makes you a bad parent.



So, how was everybody's Christmas!

I hate Christmas, and I never thought I'd say that.

So who is up for crazy drinking games on New Years Eve? I still have a crate of Firewhiskey left.

[ooc: ACK! I meant to have this filtered against baddies, not the Hyperion *headdesk* This is what I get for opting to watch The Tudors maration (mmm JRM) instead of sleeping like normal people do!]

For some reason, or another I have this desire to read 'The Tempest'

Watched a rehearsal of it when I was seven. Accidentally gave the guy playing Prospero a nose bleed.

I think I just got...grounded. Like..No tv. No games. At least she didn't mention comics.

...What the hell?

I may have a weapon that can help us against Glory. The Claiomh Solais, the sword that belonged to Nuada Airgetlaim, King of the Tuatha De Danann. It means 'Sword of Light' and is one of the four treasures of Ireland. It's said to be irresistible in battle and will cut my enemies in half.

It's old magic, blessed by the old Gods. Like Olaf's hammer. Like Glory herself. And the angel toys sound cool and everything, but personally I think fighting like with like might be more effective.

And yes, I know maybe I should think about returning it to its home. But I'm not going to. It's been given to me and I think it can be put to more good in my hands than in some museum somewhere.

Also, I'm dying to see the effect of the "Sword of Light" against vampires.
