Where: At the heart of the city, before the great throne
When: ???
What: A Game

[As your vision sharpens, so does the laughter.

Upon the throne sits a statue of Kokoli; the Masked One, the Laughing Liar, the Fool’s Fool. He remains still, and yet his mask seems to shift whenever you glance away. On his lap is Rota, the Pale Maiden, the Death-before-Life. Something seems a little off in their expressions. Hers, a little vacant, distant. His seems more dangerous each time he appears. It seems they were conversing.]

"I'm s-still not sure . . ."

"Don’t worry, babe. You’re gonna knock 'em dead."

What: LOTS AND LOTS OF SANITY derp :(


Sir Cobra . . . Sir Cobra, we should probably clean up before we wake Allen.


Buttercup, are you injured at all either?

Who: Brass, ANYONE
Where: Baths
When: Day 197, afternoon
What: A Lynx returns

[So, perhaps you are in the bathes. Or passing by?]

[Either way, there is one very miserable looking Lynx pulling himself out of the water, wearing completely drenched clothes.]

Who: Lyvus and others
Where: Lyvus
When: noonish, Day 197
What: resident crazies.

[after returning to Lyvus and managing to locate headache leaves or whatever, Bond has grabbed the Corvus journal and is writing in it while sitting outside and leaning against Lynx dorms.

... or is attempting to. stops to rub at his head or curses to himself as he scratches out YET ANOTHER mistake. If you glance over his shoulder, he's managed to at least write in this much on a page, scribbling out the last bit with an aggravated look]

Who: Anyone
Where: In vicinity to Monoceros and Lyvus
When: Day 196, after the game (and 193 backdated)
What: Dehiatus

[By a cave wall close to the Monoceros dorms a ghost suddenly stumbles out of it. Her clothes are covered in dust and have been slightly tattered and her hair is a complete mess, hardly being recognizable as curls any more. Aside from that she doesn't really look like she's been faring ill though, in all honesty she looks more annoyed than anything else as she's giving the wall she just came out for the finger.]

What the bloody hell do you mean I get an F in scariness? And fix my hair before you leave!

[At the same time there is a boy appearing from another wall between Corvus and Lynx dorms. He doesn't really look any different from when he left, but he does look like he's about to fall down at any second.]

Who: Lyvus
Where: Lynx
When: Day 194, afternoon
What: Tea(m meeting) + memories

[any Lyvus that are available are gathering into Lynx's common room. there's herbal tea and a tray of tarts, with a little bit of chocolate in them, even! but the atmosphere is still a little tense as they wait for everyone to settle in]

[ For those who know the Huntress's voice, the Call is in her voice: ]

Who: ... ?
Where: Heading toward the dorms
When: Day 193, morningish
What:

[After the shock of the night before, it's understandable that the Blanks might be a bit more apprehensive today as they clean up the broken bits scattered around their rooms. Perhaps they'll venture outside the dorm area, keeping an eye out for structural damage at the baths, seeing what can be salvaged in the forge, or maybe checking their gardens to ensure the vegetation is stable ...

If they do, it won't be hard to notice a young woman in pink walking from the North -- not the normal pink you see now, either. Instead of the flowing sashes and exotic folded cloth that cover today's swans, this girl is dressed in the familiar and plain skirted tunic and leggings that was the previous norm, now layered in dust and tattered to the point of being threadbare. Even as she carefully holds herself away from the cave walls, keeping her arms folded tightly around herself, anyone with an eye for detail will notice that both arms are only covered in grime, not metal. It's also fairly obvious from the way she's squinting that her eyes haven't adjusted to the light of these particular caves yet. There weren't many torches -- or any, for most of the journey -- to light the way behind her, after all.

She makes sure to give any stone she passes by a wiiide birth, eyes darting away from them uneasily before continuing to walk hesitantly on. She's undoubtedly coming toward the main living area, though one look at her face would tell you that she has no earthly idea where she's headed ... or where she came from. Her voice is quiet, thin and scratchy from disuse and fear, but she keeps talking to herself because she can hear it. The hitch in her voice only serves to emphasize her unmistakable accent:]

-- ep moving. Got to ... not stop. He'll keep me again ... don't want ... to not move -- anymore. Yeah. This way ... got to keep going ... this way ...

Who: Lyvus, anyone in the vicinity?
Where: Lynx
When: Day 192, not too long after the earthquake
What: REACTIONS!!

[Someone is heading back to the dorm from the direction of the lake. There is a chunk of cloth taken out of the left shoulder of his uniform, and the skin underneath is bloody and raw like it was scraped by something with a serious grudge.

As he approaches he speeds up, looking for people outside to make sure they're okay. Otherwise he's going to walk up the door, knock hard, and say:]

This is Spear. Is everyone all right?

Who: Anyone!
Where: Heading back to Lynx.
When: Day 188, afternoon.
What: Lelouch's dignity.

[there is a pretty maid (minus the long hair) heading quickly towards Lyvus. he's also carting a jug of booze, and looks about ready to shiv anybody who approaches him]

[which of course means that you should obviously stop to talk to him because wow, unfamiliar cute girl! weird]

Who: Lyvus + Cobra
Where: Lynx
When: Day 185, Late afternoon
What: Fallout from the heart trip :')

[While Dagger might still be sleeping peacefully when everyone eventually returns, bloody but unharmed, everything else might not be as peaceful...]

Who: Lyvus
Where: Lynx
When: Day 184, morning
What: EVERY FOOD FOR BREAKFAST

[the common room of Lynx this morning is super decorated with as many flowers as they could apparently drag back from the lake! also all the things have been cooked. Lelouch probably used up every last bit of special food he had but damn it is worth it because Lelouch loves his team and they are not dead anymore and that is awesome]

[itp Lyvus eats their feelings]

Who: Anybody
Where: By the lake
When: Day 180, afternoon
What: Mission completion

[you may have noticed a dozen Blanks in Lynx and Corvus uniforms moving pre-constructed parts to the lake this morning! by noon, something has begun to take shape by the lake shore . . . something towering and monstrous and green]

[congratulations, Sabra! you now have a fifteen-foot high statue of ZIM (placed carefully on a rock outcropping to give it another five feet of height!!), made of carefully constructed bits of wood, rope, bamboo, rock, metal, leather, . . . the works. despite being a scrap monstrosity, it's at least recognizable, down to the thing's kind of horrifying face, and the green paint covering most of it]

[. . . and the laser eyes. that periodically just go off. though . . . at most, they'll just scorch you a little. but laser eyes!!1]

Who: Lyvus, visitors
Where: Lynx
When: Day 179, post-game
What: Dumb leaders

[Things are pretty calm at the Lynx dorm with half the team away at a game. Clearly nothing has gone wrong at that game. Over here there is just some intense sewing going on.]

You're really good at this, aren't you?

Who: Lyvus & visitors
Where: Lyvus
When: Day 179, early afternoon.
What: Mission work.

[There is a significant amount of activity around Lyvus, again. Today, it seems, they're bringing large amounts of stuff home: piles of wood being dragged back, planks being sawed, little metal pieces being fitted together.]

[Lelouch is staying mostly inside Lynx. But he's trying not to hole up entirely! So even if you're just visiting, what with the doors opening and closing all the time as people go about their business, you might be able to catch him stitching pieces of leather together, or working on some sort of complicated embroidery on what appears to be a Hydra uniform jacket. The fact that he's doing it while apparently blindfolded is . . . certainly unusual.]

[PM me in IRC if you're not on Lyvus and want to see Lelouch! Otherwise, people are welcome to poke their heads in and harass the other Lyvus.]

Who: Lyvus
Where: Lynx
When: Day 178, post-game
What: So, a robot, a noodlewife, and a hunter come back from murdering people . . . (AKA, memories)

[Lelouch is quiet when he comes in, dropping both teams' berries on the table]

[and promptly walks into the bathroom and locks the door]

Who: Lyvus & visitors
Where: Lynx dorms
When: Day 177, late morning
What: Housekeeping, actual and metaphorical!

[Royal is cooking and cleaning triple the amount this morning, and has pretty much put everybody else on Lynx and Corvus work, too. It looks like they've been up for a while]
