My birthday's next month. I don't know if that's even all that exciting I'm just saying that if the magic of this place wants to bestow a present on me, that would be great. Maybe like enough supplies to finish building Festus. Especially since you're keeping me in Texas of all places.

I'm also pretty sure I'll never trust Halloween ever again.

Showing back in quarantine for the third time that I could remember... for the record, that is not my fault.

What did I miss?

So this Halloween sale...what do you think that's going to involve?

Well, I'm back to running this club by myself, but I'm sure we'll figure everything out.

In the meantime, if anyone has spare bronze or gold lying around and doesn't really need it, I could use some. I'm going to a lot of junkyards a lot of the time, but otherwise, you know...probably need some help.

Hey. I tried to rope you into joining the social committee for party planning with me, but they only needed one more person so I said I'd do it. You have like 50 million hobbies and projects anyway, including running your friend's club. I'm sorry she's gone again.

We could totally do something else to distract you.

I'm curious - where is everyone from?

I have officially moved from missing my motorbike to pining for it.

I wish Dad could show up with a magical supply of everything I needed. With Festus taking forever, it's just hard to use working on him as a distraction so I don't have to deal with frustrating not to have everything in my possession currently.

And school is going to be the worst. I forgot about the reading assignments for over the summer because I didn't feel like doing it, but, so basically this is going to be the worst. Who assigns books to read over the summer when they know that no one wants to read over the summer for school?

Bright side is that I have one functioning battlecopter.

Please tell me I'm not too late to go to college, because I don't appreciate landing back here in the middle of AUGUST.

Piper's gone. Of course she's gone I don't None of this

In case anyone wanted to know. I just

Okay, universe, when I said I was bored, I did not mean spice things up this way!

Demigods? Diana? Anakin? Who's still around?

This is Ahsoka Tano. I'm able to connect to our network, which has been active in most worlds we've landed in, and I'm writing this in the hopes that someone else is out there. I've landed in a pod that seems to have some sort of power dampener. I was unable to use the Force while in it, but after releasing myself, I feel back to normal.

If you're out there, please let me know. I don't know what kind of world we've landed on, but the terrain seems extra dry with the potential to be hostile. If others are out there, I want to find you; there's safety in numbers.

Please consider joining us at the castle tomorrow for Ellie Summer Theatre's production of "Romeo and Juliet". The wonderful thing about it is we're sure not to sell out of tickets and admission is up to you. We accept donations for the school and the ongoing dramatic arts program at the door. Please consider coming out to support us. We'd all appreciate it very much as I'd like to continue on as the drama teacher here in Tumbleweed!

[ROMEO & JULIET CAST + CREW]

I know you're exhausted and probably have had it up to your eye teeth with Shakespeare, but I just want to tell you that I think you're really very amazing. You've poured your heart into this creative pursuit and it's about to pay off.

At the very least, there will be a wicked party for Strike night. Please consider filling out an evaluation that I will email to you as soon as the show is over to help me understand how we can do things better in the coming school year. I hope to see you all in class, of course, too.

I'm so nervous I think I want to vomit.

Hi, everyone! I just wanted to remind you all to come see Romeo & Juliet on July 17th and the 18th! The show starts at 7:30 and you don't want to miss it! Belle has done an amazing job! Our cast and crew members have put in a lot of hard work to make this show great for you! You wont be disappointed!

[OOC: Backdated to this morning, July 9. Work prevented this from being posted this morning]

This past week, two people were approached by military personnel for use of their powers in a public venue. The second incident led to the military detaining the person, even though it seems they did nothing harmful. The pamphlets received yesterday seem to me to be tied into this.

The situation is being monitored but I wanted you all to know so you can be aware and to try and limit any use of your powers to private locations natives won't be able to see.

So, that meeting I had mentioned going to before.

We never really had trouble with our powers getting too showy in public before, but I guess part of the reason was that we had the Mist to rely on. And unfortunately, it's not like Hecate is here to provide the Mist. Or anyone who can control it. I let them know about the Mist but I don't know what else could be done about the situation. Charmspeak can only do so much, I think.

The X-Men have provided Logan's gym to train at, though some of us were doing that already. Sounds like a good idea to get our chance to train with others outside of our group. And then, of course, there's still our grounds that are safely tucked away from the public. Probably goes without saying to be careful.

What if your ability is basically being awesome at building things and fixing things? Also just so everyone knows, I'm probably going to get in a lot of trouble because sometimes my fingers like to smoke or randomly be on fire in emotional situations, so...I don't know what to tell anyone. I don't have control over that. Yet?

Also I'm still building Festus. So there.

[Capture the Flag attendees and friends minus Anakin]

So, we have a game of Capture the Flag this Sunday. Anakin's birthday is also on the eleventh and since the universe seems to like skipping over his birthday far too often, I wanted to do something a bit special. So, anyone one who can help, I was hoping to make the grounds look as Jedi Academy as we can. And of course all the party stuff for afterwards.

[Friends and Friends of Anakin minus Anakin]

I was thinking maybe setting up another party on the eleventh too. Maybe at the house or out. I'm not sure details yet.

I'm very excited about the summer theatre's production of Romeo and Juliet. If anyone is interested in participating, we could still use help.

[ELLIE SUMMER THEATRE PARTICIPANTS]

I'm really proud of the progress you're making in preparing for the play. By this rate, we'll be ready in July. In the meantime, I will continue to read for Romeo until such a time as a replacement can be found.

If any of you are interested, please come forward. I would be happy to discuss it with you.

And without our set painter, if no one is interested in continuing to paint, what do you say to making the stage progressive? There are plenty of spaces across the castle which would be appropriate for Verona.

I think I can safely say that the only decent thing about man's world are ice cream and the cars.

This town is so fucking pathetic. We have people using powers in front of them and they'll just believe any lie we tell them. I don't know if their stupidity is hilarious or troubling at this point.

It was pretty funny knocking a beer out of some guy's hand and running to a dead end, only to disappear on him. The look on his face was amazing, I totally took a picture of it.

Forgive my tardiness! The Ellie Summer Theatre cast list for the production of "Romeo and Juliet" has been posted -- here.

Crew work and practise for actors begin immediately. I'm so terribly excited to work with you all. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Figures that Ava would bail right before graduation. It's like she finally realized there'd be no more school and just nope-d so hard at it that she left the whole universe.

Rey and I were thinking that we had such fun have everyone out here for the General Leia and Han's wedding, that it'd be fun to have folks out more frequently. So, next weekend anyone who is interested is welcome to come out Friday evening for bonfire, good food, etc. Bring your own drinks, and anything else you'd like to. Everyone's welcome.

[Leia]

I hope you're enjoying marriage. I think the whole thing suited you.

I've never been so glad that school's almost over. It's cutting into my work time. Meaning my time to work on getting Festus back up in the air.

But also if anyone's willing to hire a 16 year old that's good with mechanical things, I'm pretty sure being a son of Hephaestus should be reference enough to my epic skills. So.

Dear universe.. if you send a few certain people this way, I promise I won't even gloat about attending one of the most iconic wedding this place has ever seen.

... well, okay. Maybe a little. And only to Jason, because he knows I love him regardless. I won't do it to Hazel though.
