This age feels so sedentary.

[Captain America Sam Wilson]

Um. Hi. Steve gave me your name. He said you talked to people professionally and [...] I’m debating how serious my need to talk to someone is because I don’t really want to I probably need to actually talk to someone instead of saying I’ll think about it every time someone mentions it.

Oh. Uh. My name’s Quentin since I didn’t say. Quentin Coldwater.

Also sorry it’s really late, but also I’ve been thinking about it and I might have ended up not saying something if I waited for it to be a reasonable hour.

[Added in later]

[Alice]

We haven't talked [...] since forever, but I'm I'm following through on what I said I'd do. Well, what I said I'd think about doing. I don't know if you care, but...

[Kylo & Eliot]

I'm setting up an appointment to go talk to someone. I guess it's about time. I don't know how I feel about it, but I guess [...] you know. I'm trying.

So this month's been pretty awesome, holidays aside. The best part is the part where I don't have to go to school for a while. I'm pretty stoked for that part.

I hope that this holiday season everyone is careful about their mistletoe. It is a place where Nargles like to stay. I suppose they might say that this place doesn't have Nargles or Wrackspurts, but we have come here and who knows what has possibly come with us. They can turn invisible, so it isn't like anyone would know. They aren't bad, just mischievous. They usually like to take left shoes and socks, so if any of them go missing, that is why. Don't worry, though. Even lost things have a way of turning up again.

I have made crowns out of muggle fairy lights and the fake flowers that muggles seem to like so much if anyone would like one. I have charmed mine to glow blue.

The Farmer's Market is all decked out for Christmas, if you haven't gone I'd suggest it. Great for finding gifts. I also picked up some live wreaths for the Sanctum.

[Private to Charlie Weasley (canon)]

Sorry for missing your birthday party, I wasn't myself. Everything is back to normal, thankfully. I have your gift - shall I bring it over?

[Private to Alucard and Integra Hellsing]

I don't think anybody else noticed my bizarre change. I'd appreciate it if we never mentioned it ever again.

If someone wanted to fly around to test an upgrade, is it best to take a trip out of town to do so?

People didn't bat an eyelid in Star City, but I'm guessing they would here. Especially given the UFO connections.

Well this isn't Balamb.

I had a — I wouldn't call her my daughter, but she was like one to me. Her mother died shortly after Praimfaya, and we both survived. As far as I can tell, we were the only ones to survive it on Earth. Madi was my reason for going on all alone. Five years with her as my only companion.

Don't suppose Santa could bring her, huh?

Hi! I'm Steven.

That's all. I'll wait here.

I am myself again.

That was annoying.

[backdated to a couple hours ago]

Okay, now that I just spent the last hour washing out my mouth, I'm going to that play tonight. Dinah, Frank, Cassie - you're going with me.

[Christian Ozera]

Thanks for your help while I wasn't myself. And uh - there's some left, if you want it. I really don't need it ever.

JESSICA JONES:

I filled out your stupid Santa letter for you. You're welcome.

Okay! So since I'm not superheroing on the regular right now - because wow this town is pretty quiet in general - I was checking out some of the courses at the local college. Can anyone tell me if the archaeology program at the university of Tumbleweed is any good?

Plus - where's the best place to shop for bedding and things here? My room at the manor is great, but the bedspread isn't really me. I'm thinking of going a little more bohemian.
