| Return Of The Housewife. |
[Feb. 3rd, 2013|02:57 pm] |
It's a year later, and Izumi has returned again. This time, she's dressed for the weather.
She took a seat, moving carefully, and thought about her question for awhile.
"Last time I was here, it was to ask about an idiot apprentince," she began. "Now I'm here to ask about what one does when there's nothing more for her to teach a former apprentince." |

| If I Could Turn Back Time... |
[May. 31st, 2012|12:59 am] |
A white gas starts leaking out of various cracks in different areas of the Nexus. It stays at about ankle height and slowly drifts around.
Any who have the misfortune to walk through it, gets to have a lower and younger point of view than previously. Hopefully, the unfortunate victim can either find their own way home or have someone they know that's the proper age escort them. |

Al decides to take a break from looking for work and settles himself on a chair. He took a look at the sign and spent some time thinking of a question.
"How do you help someone who's been so deeply truamatized by something that it'll take years for him to recover," he finally asks. |

There's currently stuffed animals scattered across the Nexus. They look innocent enough, but this being the Nexus, they cause LOLs. They turn whoever touches them into whatever the animal may be. |

Envy had actually found the Nexus a few days before and elected to check things out before obeying the sign.
He leans against the sign, and keeps an eye out for responders. "What do people think about pets?" |

Alternates aren't unusual in the Nexus. This one's not an Elric, though, or connected to that universe.
Zel seems to be arguing with his alternate under the Sign. Thankfully, you can tell them apart -- the usual Zelgadis is dressed as he normally is, in tan head-to-toe. The newcomer has swapped out an orange T-shirt for his normal long-sleeved tunic, and is missing his sword-belt.
The other one is also human. This is relevant. Remember it.
"-full of shit," chimera!Zel was saying. "You can't-"
"I'm you, you idiot," human!Zel interrupted. "Plus eight months of my own time, and years of yours. It wasn't worth it, and you'd probably say the same damn thing if you were me."
"I would not. Probably not."
"Are all alternates this insufferable?" The two managed to ask the question in unison.
[Since human!Zel is my Zel formerly from Sabra La Tau, he has his own account.] |

A new LOL has seen fit to arrive at the Nexus. There are toy My Little Ponies everywhere, waiting to LOL the poor unsuspecting sucker that picks one up. If they do, they'll get turned into a pony.
For those bright enough to not touch anything? There's pony-shaped confetti flying around, attacking their victims. There's no escape.
So, how many are out and about in the Nexus today?
((Pony-maker here. Have fun horrifying your pups.)) |

You might not know of the holiday, but you might have noticed the increase in the amount of green around some areas of the Nexus (no, not the forests, those don't count), and maybe the deals on various forms of alcohol as well. For today (by...someone's calendar) is Saint Patrick's Day, the excuse widely used to get absolutely smashed on oddly-colored beer and flirt with red-heads everywhere! However if you're not wearing green on this most wonderful of days...
You might get a pinch. Not in any specific place--maybe your arm, maybe your side, maybe somewhere else. But there doesn't seem to be anyone doing it--at least, no one visible on any spectrum. And if you're especially unlucky, you get to have a red-clad victim of this prank suddenly whirl around to stiffly glare at you for your perceived slight.
So, Nexus. WHAT DO.
((Obviously, you don't have to have your character get glared at by Lloyd, but feel free to have him imitate his father's loom at you. :Db)) |

| Snowball fight! |
[Feb. 27th, 2011|05:18 pm] |
It's snowed again in the Nexus, this being February still and all, and there's a lovely layer blanketing the brilliantly blinking sign.
As people wander about, answering questions, snowballs start randomly flinging themselves at people.
((LOL time! We haven't had a good 'let's be an animal for a few days!' LOL in awhile. While your character answers questions, if he/she/it gets hit, he/she/it is now an animal of YOUR CHOOSING. This LOL lasts no less than one day, and no more than one week. Also, your animal can still speak in their native language.)) |

| Compatibility issues |
[Jan. 29th, 2011|04:59 pm] |
Elsa's back, and anyone who was previously loled by her will notice she's not offering an apology for that.
She flops into a Nexus Chair and lolls her head back, looking exhausted. Finally, she lifts her head and looks around. "How do you convince someone you used to be compatible with that you're not anymore?" |

| Who is this mysterious redhead? |
[Nov. 29th, 2009|06:29 pm] |
There's a redheaded woman approaching the sign, a little red wagon in tow. The wagon is laden down with drinks of all sorts- beer, sodas, bottles of harder stuff, even some juices. Anyone with a sensitive nose and a familiarity with homunculii will be able to tell she's a homunculus, but there's nothing in her behavior or facial expressions that suggests someone in particular, and Envy was hardly the only homunculus who could alter his form.
Looks like a new homunculus in town. Of course, you normal humans won't notice a thing except that this lady really likes her drinks, and looks like she needs to gain about twenty pounds. She dresses like your typical barfly, and she's got an impish smile that suggests she giggled longer than fifteen seconds over whatever she's up to.
The wagon seems to be giving her a little bit of trouble, but not too much. Finally, she pulls it up next to the sign and grabs a stool, perching on it. "So what's your favorite drink?" she asks, still grinning. She grabs a Mike's Hard Lemonade from the wagon and opens it, taking a sip. "You're all welcome to something."
((OOC Note: This really is Envy, yes. He has found a new constant disguise that he wants to abuse for evil. However, no, your character can't tell it's Envy. :P And the drinks are LOL'd. Prepare to have a character sparkling like a certain failvamp from a certain book series that may or may not be called Twilight. As per usual, LOL is voluntary for the muns and the drink could end up doing absolutely nothing if you want to answer but not be LOL'd.)) |

| god, it's been quiet around here. let's shake things up. |
[Apr. 14th, 2009|12:23 am] |
Envy has been silent and keeping his head down in the Nexus since he got here about a month ago- Envy's not exactly the sort to go diving headfirst into something unknown, and since this is Envy we're talking about- shapeshifter and forever-people-watcher, it's doubtful he's been noticed.
However, he thinks things are getting boring around here. So it's time to get a question out there that will stir up rants and drama.
Best subject- coworkers everyone hates. Envy perches up on the lower edge of the sign's base. "You know that coworker everybody hates? Whaddya do with them besides kill them?" |
