vallo

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?

Now can I have my villain era?

I'm coming to understand that time travel is somehow achievable in this world? Surprises around every corner.

ASTARION

The new boss has suggested we join him and his person for dinner/company with people of a similar but different world at some point. My understanding is that they've been invaded by children, but I wanted to mention it so we could, I don't know--put it on a calendar?

Note that this is me attempting to get used to having a normal life again, rather than hiking across Faerûn and fighting for our lives and not having easy access to a bathtub.

HIIII 2023!! I forget how retro all of your tech is and it's SO fun 🥰😎 Dads, can you stop at the grocery store on your way home?? We're out of cheetos AND stroopwaffels and yes I already checked your hidden supply and ate them they're totes gone 😔

Fight club tmrw right??? OH NO I NEED A COSTUME STAT okay chill, Kimz, chill. We got this. We've done cool costumes in LESS THAN 24 HR NOTICE BEFORE this is fine! I'm going to need Red Bull, GREEN monster zeros, cake pops, and a sewing machine.

Since there are an extraordinary number of immortals among the Outlander ranks, and I have only known literally enough to count on one hand, maybe we can start a group. Prevents us from getting lonely when we become, as Eliphas likes to put it, geriatric.


Also, I'm looking for a replacement couch, if anyone has leads on one that could be free.

I'm told this is where I should ask about this, but if anyone sees this guy around, I'll pay handsomely for information leading to him.

Don't kill him. Or I'll kill you.

Thanks.

Fucking just broke my toe with this goddamn pallet of cheese somebody tell me this shit isn't real right the fuck now PARRISH PICK UP YOUR GODDAMN PHONE.

I've been told that this is the best place to go if someone wants to introduce themselves on arrival here. Which I want to say that this is quite an interesting device, though I feel like I've only scratched the surface on what it can actually do. It's like a very complicated sending stone.

Anyway, introduction: I'm Octavia, I'm originally from Baldur's Gate, which I am also told is not here and most people haven't heard of, and I have been here just long enough to sample a hot pumpkin spice drink served by a quite grumpy pixie and something called a pizza cone. Both were delicious, though the latter was exceptionally greasy which I think only added to how delicious it was? Regardless, an interesting change from camp cooking.

That done, I could use some help with some direction? I'm hoping to track down spell components (amber rod, lodestone, glass cone, and bat guano in particular) and something that can act as a casting focus, as mine didn't arrive here with me.

And finally, thank you to everyone who has been kind and tolerant to Astarion since he's been here. You may not know me yet, but I do appreciate.

Atreus, where are you? Anybody have eyes on him?

Stop by the DOA and we can get you the brochures and stuff for the Vallo equivalent of the GRE. Or just signed up for it if you want.

Astarion

cures vampirism: depends on the vampirism
vampire lords of vallo: Felix Draven, but fair warning, he's a dick.
necromancy of thay: don't know about thay, but Beketh is the coven that specializes in necromancy and there's several Outlanders who specialize in it.

Hey half god, it can be really exhausting and you should take some time to relax, take care of yourself.

And probably come by our house slide I'm pretty sure I'm installing this weekend? Maybe? That's an open invite not just to the half-gods, FYI. Might add a ball pit at the bottom.

i think you can go to college if you want, but you probably can't become the goblin king. also, have you ever seen The Labyrinth?

MOM? Do you want me to just off this person FOR you???? WHO IS IT????

It's my first autumn in Vallo. On a scale from 1 to 10, how intense is Halloween here? Does shit get wild or what? I've noticed the uptick in pumpkin stuff and now there's search engine crap (getting ahead of this now: I will not be shamed for my fanfic prefs) but I didn't know if it got worse as the month went on or what.

So that is what kind of Monday it is going to be like, eh? Dragon friend, do not worry, they are all very dangerous and remarkable.

Is there ah- something you wanted to tell me?

Ty says you've been helpful and decent to him. So thanks. I'm Julian.



I don't really know what to say. Social media is a Mundane I've never spent much time on the internet. And my girlfriend usually does most of the talking. I don't know how to do this without her I'm still wrapping my head around the fact that Downworlders and M humans are living peacefully together in the open here. Is that really working as well as it seems? If so, could somebody tell me your secret?

Anyway. I guess I'll find an art supply store while I figure out what to do with myself.

Well, this certainly wasn't on my list of things to do today.

Granted, I've seen some pretty weird crap. This maybe breaks into the top ten. Maybe. I'm still weighing somethings before I finalize the list.

I'll work on the list after I take a shower. And maybe a nap.

Anyway, I might as well introduce myself, since I'm apparently going to be stuck here for awhile. I'm Buffy Summers.
