I came down the ladder this morning to find The Divine Ferocia and Captain Hopper II sitting proudly by their latest kill deposited at my office door. However, instead of the usual mouse or vole carcass, I have been presented with a pile of brass and gears. It looks like it might have been a dragonfly before they detached its wings.

Is this Vallo-usual, or should I be concerned?

MageNet's having open interviews for most departments the week of the 17th! If anyone's looking for tech job, come see us! We need more love for our Outreach, Green Initiative, and Engineering departments, but all departments have open interviews going on.

I'll be happy to look over anyone's resume and help polish it, if need be. 😊

Additionally, our second set of bird AIs will be hatching tomorrow, if anyone wants to come to the Aviary to watch them be born. It's scheduled to happen around noon, with a lunch spread on offer.

Next month, Enki's home towers - The Skyline - will be lifting off into the air to permanently reside in the skies. It was decided upon by the Elders and we've been prepping for this since February. It's not quite a rocket launch to space, but it's going to be pretty spectacular. I'll be getting details out to you in early June, for anyone interested in watching.

Enki's 200th Anniversary is coming up at the end of this August and we will be hosting a charity ball in its honor. It's still a bit away, but keep an eye out for information about it. And as always, if you're looking to collaborate with MageNet and Enki, we're around. Reach out to any member, including me and the Kennys, to get something going!

[ Posted at 12:40am ] I've been working on an idea for an advanced and adaptable filtration system to mitigate the effects of foreign metals in the rainwater... Mei, this might be for the green initiative you mentioned to me when I first arrived. What is the current filtration approach? We should have coffee. Obviously when I write "foreign" here, it's doing a lot of heavy lifting but as much debris and dust gets into the air with the various monthly destructions I'm certain that there is an opportunity to ensure that the--

[ Posted at 1:23am ] I had a thought and I had to write it down before I forgot it. Jayce has been working on deploying shields - have you seen them? They're very impressive. I understand that Brigitte has a deployable healing pack as well, yes? Thinking along these lines, perhaps some kind of portable flare system might be applicable for those who are living their day when something attacks... something to draw the attention of the DOA on patrol or other citizens. Maybe it can even link up with the security systems to create a record with coordinates of where they are located? Let me see if I can--

[ Posted at 3:14am ] I think I built a robot. Hmm.

[ Posted at 3:25am ] Okay I'm going to bed now but please be nice to the robot; he is in the kitchen and he promises to be quiet. His name is Blitzcrank. He is too small and his processing system is simple so I will be upgrading him and determining how he can be utilized from here.

[ Posted at 3:55am ] I should probably be more healthy now that I'm not actively dying. I'll get a trainer.

Hello, my name is Viktor. I have been given a clearance to work on simple strengthening routines but I confess I don't know where to start. Your name was given when I requested someone who could assist me without unnecessary treacle. I have several "exciting" spinal issues that I will need to talk to you about but currently most of my problems are a result of muscle imbalance, and I would require a routine to mitigate this circumstance. I also require someone who could adequately yell at me when I inevitably ignore my routine because of my work. Would this be something you could assist me with?

[ /Filter ]

[ Filtered to Arcane Crew + Mei + Brigitte, posted at 4:02am ] I got a trainer. Maybe? We'll see. Goodnight, see you tomorrow. Today. Don't yell at me. It's too late. I will sleep tomorrow. Today? Goodbye.

Everyone wish my delightful younger sister Julia a very happy birthday for tomorrow. If you don't know her, she's a skilled bartender at Imperial, she loves pancakes, and is the best Cheeto aunt I could ever ask for. Or be stuck with. Since I am stuck with her and remember that when she was very small I put her in a trash can to see if she would fit. Unsurprisingly, I was scolded for that.

cut for photo )

Here's to another trip 'round the sun, Jules. Hopefully we'll find something more fun to do for your birthday than try to settle the Coke vs Pepsi argument with sticks. I love you to the moon and back, a few times over.



And I will always give you the fuller cup. Probably.

Part of me wants to go ape shit and say that whatever tells us that someone is gone-- that it's wrong, it's bullshit, there's a mistake, Mako is just blowing off steam somewhere.

But then the logical part realizes that she was here for months without me, why couldn't it go the other way around too? Science has laws and mirrors itself and all that, right? And magic... is a thing? So. Fuck.

But I have this guy to help me through this:

HI so I'm giving a presentation at the Symposium this weekend and I've never given a presentation in my life. I have slides and a bullet point thing that's fancy and a speech but I keep practicing what I'm going to say and I end up rambling.

Is anyone able to come over tonight and listen to me talk and give me feedback and tell me not to get drunk on mead before? I'll order pizza.

Hello, Outlanders.
I am Rhysh of the House Vanev with The Conclave, a coven here in Vallo. I believe a few of you may have been invited or attended some of our events in the past but I am here to formally extend an invite to an upcoming one.

As we have done in years past, The Clave will be hosting an open house at the Vanev Estate following the conclusion of the Geliara Magic Symposium. There will be drinks, food, and a chance to mingle with fellow magic users in Vallo. Dress is semi formal.

[ address, time, etc ]

All are welcome to attend.

OUTLANDERS

None of us expected to log on to find threats from fae this morning, but here we are.

I don't know how valid their threats are in terms of the Wild Hunt, but that's now on my list to confirm. I doubt her threat to have us all removed from Vallo has any merit, but we'll look into that too. It's always been my understanding that Vallo does what it wants, not what the fae want. She's lashing out and is far to used to getting her own way

But if there are any fears or concerns, they won't achieve any threats without a fight.

A lot of us are working on different ways to locate our people. It probably goes without saying, but please keep everyone posted of all successes and failures. As tempting as it might be, please refrain from stabbing any of the fae. I'm saying this to myself too.

Vallo Outlanders. After addressing your DOA members, you are on the hook with the fae realm to assist in returning the following members of the royal family and courts from whatever your newest disaster has pulled them into.

Meriol and Thian Valmaris, my twin brothers
Selenia Greytree, my personal guard and mentor
Aurae Sylris, my father's advisor
Aien Keyzeiros, the Spring Court's representative for the council
Arryn Briarvale, the Unseelie ruling family's private healer
An informant from the Dusk Court who goes by the name Sparrow
And an absolutely horrible ex-best fr Clover

Captain Nightspark has also alerted me that Eidothea one of his enlisted members is also missing and breaking a contract the Wild Hunt holds between courts. If she is not found, he will require a replacement and I am not against offering one of you.

PRIVATE TO CYPRIAN.
I know you can see this. The DOA let me know another fae had registered for network access. The only reason I have not slit your throat immediately is that I believe getting my living brothers back is far more important vengeance at the moment. Stay out of my way and I won't gut you as you did to my brothers.

Okay, so I just got hit with a new app development project. Since this is something I have even less experience with than romantic relationships, congratulations, you're now part of my market research.

The basics:
  • With an ever-rising population of dead folks and the discovery of some misfiled items from about fifty years back, Ankou Coven's ended up with a significant backlog of "unfinished business" cases
  • Ankou's personnel are overtaxed as it is, and spiritual triage dictates that they focus on the most pressing unfinished business first, so a lot of non-emergent but still significant cases are left waiting in line
  • ...but luckily, we have a large untapped well of personnel in the form of Helpful Outlanders
  • ...and with a little bit of cooperation between Enki, Ankou, and your friendly neighborhood app developer (who can actually stay in human form again, hooray), we think we can create an app that would put these Helpful Outlanders in touch with Spirits In Need.


So, here's phase one of my market research, to which any and all answers are appreciated:

  • if this app existed, would you put a profile on it?
  • If you were/are dead, what would you be looking for in a living problem-solver?
  • If you were/are alive, what would you be looking for in a case to assist with?
  • Thoughts on the name Medium? Better ideas?
  • General thoughts and feelings on the project?
  • Ideas for imagery to avoid, imagery to use, etc.?
  • Would you be interested in assisting in a more official capacity? I'm perfectly happy to just make an app and walk away when it comes to you people hooking up and/or finding people to eat sushi in silence with, but we could probably use a little more involved community management here and a list of resources to contact in addition to what Ankou already has in place.
  • Do you think we'll need to update the dick recognition algorithm for this?

HEY PEOPLE from other worlds who don't know what Valentines Day is about, it is me, your guide, your guru, Thom or otherwise known as Mhom, who is happy to answer any questions you might have about this unavoidable cultural tradition

Ask me questions

Special thanks to Vallo for so far letting today be a Vallo-normal day. I enjoyed some tea, read to the twins, got a manicure, ignored all work emails, and took myself online shopping. Perfect way to ring in 28.

Reminder that we're covering (Astral) Projection at the Outlander Coven meeting on Monday. Thank you to everyone who's been helping with the rebuild efforts.

[Filtered to James' friends (not including James)]

Hey everyone. So, James' birthday's coming up on Friday (shit, where the time gone?), and I thought it might be nice to throw him a bit of a dinner or something and has hoping you guys could come out.

I think James would probably get a kick out of that weird-ass cat restaurant I keep hearing about, so maybe a bunch of us could meet there Friday at around 7, unless someone has a better idea?< I don't know, I haven't done anything like this before. He knows I'm planning a dinner so you don't have to keep this to yourself or anything, though I'd rather keep some of the details a surprise.

Maybe let me know if you're planning on coming so I can give them some sort of number for the reservation.

so i've been doing some self-research, and it seems like my blend-in instinct is in overdrive

the oh-shit-we're-getting-attacked reflex is getting triggered too easily, and then i immediately turn into something new to try to preserve a sense of safety

best trick for avoiding it so far is floating in water in typhon form. water feels safe like space if i'm typhon, so i can stay one thing

not sure yet if the problem is neurological following impact trauma or psychological following unexpected failure to protect self

usually i'm the specialist on that, but i can only get so far trying to analyze myself, and i told hannah i'd get help if it went on more than a couple days

so...

we got any other brain guys around here? exobiologists? magineurologists? people with experience studying neural networks with atypical structures? note: must be chill with tentacles

i need some help figuring out if this is damage that needs repair or if i just need to keep floating a while til the stress eases up

and happy new year, my lunar calendar bros. mei, i still expect you to feed me dumplings

I mostly prefer to read all of your exploits rather than post on here directly (and it's been awhile since I have) but - I come on behalf of Asetenarra, whom I officially joined in December. Nothing too long (I'm not very wordy with these) but if you're looking for something to do up to and on Valentine's Day, they'll be hosting a bonfire that I think has been called a 'Boyfriend Bonfire' elsewhere but you don't necessarily have to have a boyfriend - it's merely a 'ritual' wherein you put tokens into a box and, uh, burn it. All in symbolism of leaving a past relationship behind and moving on. It can be any relationship, doesn't have to be romantic.

Dinner will be a part of it too and if you're interested in their very goth recipe please check it out. The cheese is made by them. Looks a bit questionable but tastes delicious - going goth for Valentine's Day is also very Asetenarra. Softly.

But anyway, I suppose I should also note that my office is still downtown, located in the city hospital - when things get insane I tend to pitch in at the ER but I'm currently taking new patients as well. Or just appointments for anything you might need, on the psychiatry front.
