vallo

Calling all magical folks or those knowledgeable about:

Our team's patrol today spotted something that looks like a teleportation circle in the forest at [location]. Can't say how long it's been there but there are runes near the thing as well as objects that seem to be badly burned. Most of them were not distinguishable from ashes at all but the ones that were are: an apron, a grumpy frog t-shirt, and a mug with cacti on it that says "You Can't Touch This".

I can't get much information out of this but if anyone else wants to step in and take a look, that would help.

Hello, I'm back, but not here to rip out any hearts unless you ask nicely.

I'm working on getting things sorted, but Henry's a baby now because Vallo made a choice. I'm not complaining, but this means diapers, sleepless nights, and me not being able to work fulltime at my old law firm until I can figure that out. I need a babysitter and my go tos are gone (what the fuck, Vallo) or don't remember me (what the fuck, Nyx).

I'll accept applications here.

Once that's sorted, I'll be needing some help when I'm working fulltime again. I need an investigator on my payroll to help me work my cases. No real requirements other than light feet and a can do attitude. No perkiness..

I'll also accept applications for that here.

Business out of the way, who is serving the best wine right now? Everything's different, did you guys rebuild some things?

Is this some sort of test
Or...a reality I created?
I'm going to be in so much trouble
I want to go back I want to go back I want to go back
I can't
What if I just break reali

I'm certain everyone says this, but I really can't be here Victor's going to literally destroy this place and. Wherever here is.

I think if I can get access to a few magical tomes, I can do it myself. Or if anyone can open a portal to Latveria?

Great.

I'm sure this is a twisted Galra experiment but I guess this is better than a prison cell. Anybody lose a teleporting toddler? He's very confused but we're keeping him out of trouble. Mostly. I'm not sure how to stop him from teleporting into the pantry when he's decided he wants goldfish crackers.

You ever have one of those nights where your best frenemy is like shots and then more shots and you swear that last one didn't really do you in but yet you wake up in a.... treehouse? That glows? With a dog and what I am pretty sure are two actual wolves? Do wolves eat people? Is this how I die? In a really nice treehouse by getting eaten by a wolf?

It's baby dino season on the island, apparently. My last two trips out here have had a few baby encounters, which means they're thriving!

I know that a lot of the kids that loved If there's any interest in doing another education overnight camping trip, let me know and I'll plan one. I can't promise you'll get to see the baby raptors (safety reasons), but I can give you these pics and a [VIDEO] that I took earlier.

( Can I keep them? )

When all you wanna do is take a walk to run some ERRANDS and Hi, warning: we have a lot of violent activity centered around the Crossed Quills and the village around it. We got monsters, we got portals (??? why), and everything is breaking. I think And I don't know if it's because I got thrown into a damn tree too hard, but I think these things aren't swiping at any of the locals?

Magically Minded (do you think your character would see this? then yes!)

Greetings all, I am sharing on behalf of myself and Wanda (though I would never venture to speak for her, obviously) as your magical representatives for the DOA. The Directrix of Geliara Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry has requested assistance in first, containing, and secondly, closing, a portal that opened on the grounds of the school. Apparently a conjuration class had a spell go...incorrectly and now there is a portal that they are unable to do anything with.

The second piece to that is that somethings may have escaped. The details on what, exactly, they are, are a bit sketchy, so this may take some time and energy. You can come to the DOA office and read for yourself what the Directrix sent over and if you are so inclined, we can then proceed to the school for closer examination of the portal.

Certainly no one is required to participate but if you do we will most likely have their eternal gratitude and a favor to be called upon later, ho hum, it is very good for relations, and I will purchase the Dashing Doors for lunch. And probably have wine if this goes very late.

Ok what the fuck is a fits chivalry. Is that a thing? This rainbow bird fucking talks but like Kiri talks and it won't stop saying fits chivalry like that means something. Chainsaw is awkward as fuck and trying to make friends so I have two birds barking nonsense at each other. Not complaining just saying. It's like that meme of the goth house next to the colorful one only these houses have sharp ass beaks and won't shut up.

Ásynja Meadery will go on. Torunn worked too hard on it for us to shutter its doors. The Palace is gone, however. We did transplant a lot of the fruit bearing trees to the winery with help from Freya months ago, so some of the garden lives on.

We do need more help though. Bartenders, one more bar manager, an event planner, and brewers. Someone that likes numbers would be great as well. I'm told keeping profits in gold bars is a bad idea and I have something called taxes?

Thank you to those that reached out. I'm sorry I wasn't very responsive, it was just a lot at once.

So, what I'm seeing here is that everyone's future kids have already gone home.

My past kid is still here. Who do I talk to about sending him back home?

I don't know if anyone would be able to confirm this... but I hope wherever Sabrina is, she's with the people she had lost from this place and she's safe and happy.

Today is entirely too quiet, I'm not sure what to do. In the few days that Allison Martin-Stilinski was here, the world felt far brighter than it had ever been. Hopefully, I get to see her again in the future, here in Vallo or back in mine and Stiles's world.

It seems that I had grown very used to the extra presence and energy that Catrin brought into the house, because now it just feels very big and empty this morning. I miss her already.



I also think that I might need to start advertising for a roommate or two. This house just isn't meant for one person.

I woke up to a post it note from my older self saying I owe the kids brunch for being "what THEY would say an embarrassment, but don't listen to them".

So come get your waffles and bacon I guess?

That was certainly something else. Thank you to everyone who helped out my younger self, it is greatly appreciated.

THOR.
I am very sorry about Torunn, my friend. I hope you two may find each other again one day.

Soooo it seems like we're going to be here through Halloween again (unless I just jinxed it, oh no??) (unless me saying I jinxed it unjinxes it??) (I don't know how jinxes work) (CLEARLY) which means I am already regretting not thinking ahead and figuring out a Halloween costume.

So! What are you doing for a costume, if you're doing one? Not that I want to steal ideas! I just thought ✨inspiration✨ and all that!! 🎃

Haha, Vallo. Very funny. There's a glitch in the notifications again, nerdy tech people.

Who has eyes on Torunn? James? Grandsprogs?

Okay. No one panic. It's fine. Everything is fine, but.


I kind of lost my dad. The small tiny version of him. To be fair he is really fast, and can probably convince anyone to do anything at this point. I looked away for a SECOND.





I'm going to find him! But you know if you want to, maybe, help? I will not say no.

I'm really glad I went ahead and booked the big room at Level Up Lounge because, as I hoped predicted, October decided to be October and the family size has expanded! I'm so glad so many of you are here!

So, on that note, we're still on for Catra's birthday party this Friday starting at 6:00 PM. We're getting a buffet set up so there will be plenty of food for everyone! Anyone who volunteered to help decorate the room, come down around 4:00 so we've got plenty of prep time.

If anyone doesn't know, Catra's back to her normal age and we have our future twins here (Hope and Mara, who think the network is lame and for old people, by the way, their words). Kids of all ages more than welcome, just... don't make me break up any fights, I guess?? NO KNIVES, KEITH & CO.
