Save Atlantis RPG

Guess what I found! It's almost as good as a dragon. In ten days time, we will be enjoying a holiday here in Atlantis! For those of you who, like me, aren't familiar with many holidays, it is a day dedicated to the power of love, and it's called Valentines Day. Or... Valentine's Day. I'm honestly not sure. I did some research on it, and it appears as if Valentine was some sort of holy man in his day, but honestly all that bit was a lot of reading and I got bored so you'll have to look up the rest of that if you'd like some history because I definitely didn't stick with it. But the holiday dedicated to St. Valentine is wonderful! It's a celebration of love, which I think is so essential. In dark and uncertain times, there's nothing quite so reassuring as knowing that there's someone or someones out there waiting for you to get home, is there?

From what I can tell, the main colours of this holiday are pink and red. There are lots of images of lovers gazing into another's eyes, beautiful small paper artworks with embroidered lace, and somewhat bafflingly, what appear to be winged babies wearing poorly-constructed diapers shooting people. I'm not sure what that's about. Perhaps it's to remind us that life is fleeting and that we should love while we have the opportunity before babies kill us with tiny arrows? I've also discovered through the research that wasn't historical and dull that people are supposed to give one another chocolates or cinnamon candies on Valentines Day, love letters, roses (or other flowers), and send anonymous letters of love to their crushes. So if you're single, this is still a holiday that you can benefit from!

I'm very excited about Valentines Day. It seems optimistic and fun and lighthearted, and with the days being so short and spring seemingly so far away, I could use the distraction.

Will you be my Valentine, Bethany Hawke? I've festooned the collars of our animals with roses, and frankly, it's already a mess, but I promise to clean it up.

I went a little overboard with my baking and made a few extra batches of cookies. Would anyone want some?


henry ferris, octavia blake & davina claire.

Don't you think I have forgotten about you. You have your own cookie batches waiting for you!

faye.

Are you back to your own body? I hope you had a nice time yesterday with me.

I bakes some cookies, would you like some?

This snowstorm is brutal, kind of feeling bad for anyone who has to go out and work in this mess. I think I'm gonna go offer to help deliver the mail today and help out those mail carriers that can't zip around like I can. Assuming I can help - you don't need like a special license to pitch in on something like that, right?

I'm looking for volunteers for research regarding the testing of and implementation of a restorative serum from my world that will affect my powers. My job is to try to utilize my powers (pain, and removal of) on you while under various doses of said serum. Your job is to give me a quantifiable number describing the sensation and/or lack thereof.

Before we get started, I'll need to run a few tests to get an idea of your pain tolerance and sensitivity. At no point will I produce any amount of pain in you more intense than a persistent headache (around 3-4 on the pain scale out of 10), and the pain will dissipate as soon as you quantify it. Likewise, all numbness I produce in you will be temporary. I understand that this will be uncomfortable, but it's for a good cause, and all you people are heroes and should eat up good deeds like catnip.

No one under the age of 21. No one with active reoccurring pain such as a badly-healed injury or arthritis. I won't pay you, but I might spring for doughnuts. Please leave me a comment here with questions or to volunteer. I have one open spot (Leonardo da Vinci, Penny Adiyodi, Evie Frye).

EDITED TO ADD: All spots taken. Thank you.

Are you going to be in Atlantis during the next few weeks? Another incident is brewing. Let's not have mistletoe waiting for my return to consciousness this time.

I just had an entrepreneurial idea I wanna run by you. As you know, I need cash for my drum kit among other things like... bits and bobs and baubles, probably. You might need some too! So I thought, Valentines Day is coming so what if we started a 'web' delivery service for presents and cards and stuff that caught the person exactly at the time and place the sender chose instead of just when mail services work, and we delivered stuff other than cards and flowers too, super in secret because we can web sling down like Tom Cruise in that movie? (and also because we can throw stuff safely)
