Never have I felt more awkward over a virtual post. Take a shot.

Hello all. My name is Shi Meiying. Please call me Mei. I'm a representative of a group you've probably never heard of - the Enki Coven. We're a coven that deals mostly in technomagic; the integration of magic and technology. We're fairly small in comparison to some of the other covens out there.

You're more likely to have heard of our business venture - Mage Net. We deal with cybersecurity, app development, green initiatives, and community outreach. It was through them that we came across Tag! and its very amusing dick pic recognition software. We invested in it and, with that, have been pushing our Elders to pull the sticks out of their asses and let us come play with you all.

Late afternoon today, we invite you to gather with us at Sanya Beach for the creation and release of paper lanterns in honor of the mid-autumn. There will be supplies available for anyone interested, to design lanterns with any messages or designs you see fit. Messages can include hopes for this coming year, prayers, questions to the ancestors, dick pics - honestly, go wild. We'll release them after sunset.

I hope I get the chance to meet some of you this evening there.

Have you ever wanted to look at my face and go "wow, he can sing, but what a prick"? Or write blog posts about the worst characters in musical theater?

I have an opportunity for you! Come see your very own Sabrina (and me!) at The Last Five Years, coming @ you the last week of Sept! Tickets on sale now, at [Vallo Community Theater]. Come give us props because a cast of two is high-key stress and we've been working our butts off the last few weeks and I'm having to go hard on the throat coat & vocal health. Come clap for me I need attention 😭

[FILTERED TO TINA]

Hi so potentially awkward question buttttttt

Are you hiring any teachers still for anything vocal or acting? I need a jo Any gaps you need filling there in the LEAST dirty way I can possibly word this?

I woke up without any magic this morning. Deep breaths, Adaine I said deep breaths I had thought that maybe this would pass over me, but ah apparently not.

Boggy is gone, too. I'm guessing without magic that tether snapped. That's really bad awful not great. I had grown so used to always having him here and now he's gone and I don't know what and I could really use him about now.

Am I going to fall asleep, too? What if Is this what my ndfskjfs

Anyway, that is what's going on here.

Per the commander - If you are missing a relative or loved one, please provide their name and description here and available Defense members will look for them. Some of us have been affected by the loss of magic, so your patience is going to go a long way.

I can't promise you anything, but waiting without word is fucked.

I've been loitering around here for a while, but never made an actual post. Regretting that now since I have a semi-important ask but hopefully it won't get held against me. Hi, if we haven't met, I'm Eli Grimsbane (yeah, we know, we make jokes about it too). I'm a member of the Ankou Coven but no one important or anything if you need a favor. But if you're not against bribery I can make something up?

Anyway, my dad's a moderately good looking silver fox divorcee and so him not coming home isn't totally unusual except normally he texts and he didn't and we know he was out looking for some leads on what's been going on in the forest with all of this. And now with Vorerra

Dark hair, impressive eyebrows, currently growing a mustache and we're trying to talk him out of it, answers to Clive or dad. If you see him, let us know? Or tell him his kids are having ice cream and vodka for breakfast.

Not It on calling mom.

Question: Do birthdays here actually make us a year older or are we in some kind of weird stasis here? I don't know if I'm ready to be another year closer to 30 yet.

[Neville]
Happy late-ish Birthday!

What is your favorite flavor of ice cream? I am doing research. (The research is expanding my ice cream flavor preferences.)

BONNIE

Hello! I apologize if this is a poor way of asking about this, but I was wondering if you were looking for any part-time help at your shop right now? Obviously I will fill out any application or submit a resume and have an interview or any other process you have in mind if you are, but I thought it prudent to check with you first -- just to make sure.

Thank you, either way!

There is an Unagi in our pond!

I don't know how because the last Unagi I met was back in Kyoshi Island!

I doubt that I am the first with the ability to see the future to say this, and also doubt that I will be the last, but it is frustrating to have that sort of skillset and to not be able to foresee something like all of this with enough clarity to provide any sort of concrete warning. Likewise, being able to divine a solution would also be helpful, if it actually worked that way -- frustrating, all around.

I wish there was more that I could do to help, is all. And I'm sorry to those of you that are separated from friends and family. That can't be easy, in the least.

But I have noticed how all of this has really swung the gossip focus at school. I don't know all of the details of last week's events, but it is quite something to be in a school that seems to discourage student participation in an unsanctioned fight club, magical or otherwise. In all honesty, I would be shocked if back home doing such wasn't expected curriculum for some focuses. Then again, I'm fully aware that much of what happened at our school couldn't be filed under peak responsibility.

network post
Anyone else feeling kind of antsy and want to hit up the training grounds?

journal entry to noctis and ignis
Still hanging in there? I may be spoiling the cat.

journal entry to skyhold residents, nyx and bucky
Still all good down on your ends. Everyone's fed and in one piece, if there's anything else I should be doing at this point let me know?

Aang, Sokka - one of you check on Ahiru, please and make sure he is fed. NO BREAD.

UH WTF, is everyone missing or just me?

EDITED LATER: Did you end up with a weird journal next to you? Trying to get a headcount I should NOT be in charge of this

[ written into her journal about an hour after arrival ]

Hello?

Is anyone seeing this?

Hey if you are, who all woke up somewhere entirely else today? Can we get a bit of a role call or something going? I'm here with Baz, Genya, and Alex.


private to josie and lizzie:
Check in please? You both okay?

Haus + Hockey Team -Eric Bittle-Zimmermann

Okay, everyone, Canada's Sweetheart Jack Bittle-Zimmermann is planning a party for our fave Bitty and I'm doing the cake (technically I'm not making the cake, only decorating it, because I would never put that pressure on myself in a hundred billion years). It's a giant Bitty face made of cupcakes, I've been watching like, a fuck ton of Food Network and I plotted this out and I feel good about it.

So here's what I need:

1. People to go pick up cupcakes at various locations because I'm getting different flavors of cake, obvs
2. People to pick up frostings. Like. A fuck ton of frosting.
3. Murderbrones to help me see from above.
4. Shoulder massages, preferably from a mustachioed lawyer
5. Big ass tables.




6. A way to transport the cake creation. I will take any and all suggestions, if I have to live at Faber for the next few days I will.

It feels like cheating, because it was only August back home before I was brought here, but today is my birthday and I guess that means I am technically 17 now. Better that than turning 16 again, I suppose; a lot happened around my last birthday, what with my spring break revolving around our sophomore year project that included adventures on a floating pirate ship island, being kidnapped by my own people, trying alcohol for the first time, and family dramatics, to put it incredibly lightly, so... a do over is welcome. I just wish

And I think my do over requires cake! I wasn't allowed Give me your best bakery recommendations, if you have them. I would make one myself, but I'm not that adventurous.

Look, if I'm going to accidentally land us on a new universe, at least there's a musical introduction to soothe the sting.

Billy Kaplan, from the Young Avengers, in case anyone is semi-familiar with us.

And it's totally not my fault this time, guys, I would definitely know if I created an entire universe and trapped people from different universes on it.
I think.
Probably.


My twin brother Tommy is also here--or, was, at least, he zipped off and if you were holding a slice of pizza or a frappuccino or a hot dog or had a cool looking hat on and all of a sudden it vanished, that was him and I apologize profusely. To tell us apart, he's got white hair and has no opinion on the best Robin (which is Tim Drake, by the way, just saying, even though Stephanie Brown being Robin AND Batgirl is legendary).

OKAY OKAY OKAY so I know I went to the adoption event and I know I was like HAHA NO I DON'T WANT A DOG BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO PICK UP POOP.

But gdhfjgdfhk LOOK who came up to me in the forest and then followed me home and has apparently decided to adopt me???

So I guess I have an animal companion now and I need help with names because she's objected to everything I've suggested so far. So far, I've tried Taco, Jalapeno Popper, Sno-Cone, Blueberry, Fettucine, and Salsa. Plus some others that I forgot to keep track of, so.

Hello, everyone! I'm a new arrival here. It's all a bit strange, but I'm looking forward to meeting all of you. My name is Katara. This city is incredible.

I had the worst nightmare.

Holy Peach Bourbon Fettucine, you guys!!! This morning, someone left me a present by the pond and it was the CUTEST thing and I can't even handle it! :))))))))) Ahiru loves it too lolololol

( Look here for a picture! )

You GUYS! Holy Sakura Mochi Kit Kats! I slept so good last night! It's been a GREAT day so far and I hope you all have a wonderful morning. Zuko out!
