vallo

Okay okay alright

I have spent all fucking day being hounded by a flock of ravens or crows or some shit and it's starting to get creepy. Is this a Hallowhat'sitween thing? Am I just fucking lucky?

Unlucky? I mean shit, we already knew that.



Anyway, don't go outside, Letters.

DOA FOLKS

Hey, hope you all had a good Monday so far. Before Brenda finds out and tells everyone it gets around, I wanted to just let you all know that after a lot of thinking and considering, I put my notice in today. I'll still be doing defense as usual, but I put in my notice today for my job as the Outlander rep.

That said, it will be a bit before I'm fully gone as I'm going to stick around to help with finding a replacement and getting them onboarded, so it's not an immediate thing but I know that news can spread and I wanted you all to hear it from me first.

Anyway, I brought in some pie and it's in the break room if you're interested or want to take some home with you.

BELLS HELLS

Okay, it's officially official. I put in my notice at work. It will be a while before I'm fully done, but after spending so much time thinking it over the last month, it feels good to have taken the first step.

CHETNEY

Unrelated to that, I was wondering if you'd help me with something.

hello!!!!!! it's me Orym of the air ashari

did you guys know you have flower dogs here

🌸🐕🌻🐶

Hey fun fucking facts for today:

1. So you can call them a flock of turkeys, but they're also called a rafter of turkeys and what the fuck is up with that.

2. Our house is surrounded by a rafter of turkeys. ( cut for image! )

3. They're mean fuckers, shit and damn. I can respect that and all, but also I don't know who in this house offended the turkeys (Chet? Dorian?) but they're currently pecking at the siding and windows and shit. It might be fucking on.

and 4. Letters, don't go outside.

Once again, I would like to issue apologies to the person that I may have taken too close of aim at upon my arrival. I'm normally an ask questions first sort of woman, but—well. I think we can all agree that arriving here in the middle of a forest when you had just been enjoying a lovely breakfast is quite the shock, yes? Perhaps?

Regardless, one more time, for the road: many apologies, I owe you a drink or pastry.

That said, hello! I've been told Lady de Rolo is here? Mum?

That was certainly one way to exit my 30s.

Everyone go get a piece of pie, or two, or a whole pie. I don't judge, I also don't judge flavors, I only judge if you come in here on the day of my birth and tell me another dessert is better. (I don't discriminate, I just really like pie.)

I still don't I am completely fucking lost This world is so bright

Are there housing options in a more [...] quiet area? I am out of this bloody clinic and these apartments are in the middle of a very populated area. And there is so much sunlight.

[a few moments after this airs for vallo to see]

Fuck.

I have been doing better about losing days, so the fact I just apparently lost several is bullshit. I remember I had a fucked up dream but it's fuzzy as shit and What the fuck is going on?

I know that there is a lot going on and I'm sorry to everyone out there going through it, but--well.

There's a dragon in our yard? It's unlike any dragon I've heard of or seen, which I'll admit my exposure is limited, and it's very beautiful, but it's also just curled around our cherry blossom tree from Zephrah. And I'm also pretty sure it's sleeping? But that's just what it looks like from inside the house, not sure if it's a good idea to approach.

Anyway, advice would be good? I've learned how to handle bulettes, but this is new.

Okay, last year was me figuring out what this pride thing that's coming up is. Big fan. Love to see it. Always wanted to be in a parade.

Alright, no I haven't, but it was fun anyway.

This year, it's time to go all out and I've been working on fits and with some fucking luck (aka pure skill) I'll be set to go early. That said, if anyone else wants to deck themselves out in something all unique and one of a damn kind, hit me up because I enjoy this shit and am here to help, I guess.

Also in all this summer weather-ness, I've perfected frozen margaritas. Nothing more to say about that, I just wanted to brag.

Hey. Look at this shit. ( Cut for images! )

Fucking great, I know.

What's up.

I'm looking to bring in some extra cash to start a nest egg for when. Bartending is lucrative and all that, but I'm a greedy bastard. That said, I'm handy with a needle and thread so if you need any fixes or want something added to a piece or just, I don't know, want something designed, then: hi. I'm Ashton Greymoore. Let's fucking go.



Also, now I'm curious. Anyone else got any secret talents they're holding out on? Now's the time to fess up. Let's be fucking vulnerable.

BELLS HELLS (MINUS DORIAN)

Hey, are you guys going to have time tomorrow to possibly do me a favor?

So after my whole earth titan thing had some folk surprised, it had me thinking. We've all got some kind of weird life story, tragic or magical or funky or otherwise, from before we were all forced to live in merriment here in Vallo. So tell me, or the class at large, something about yourself that's shocking. Could be personal, could be weird world shit (though that's been asked about before, so no fucking repeats because that's cheating), could be adventures had. I don't care, I just want to be entertained because I finished this documentary about weird cheese and am real hung up about it.

Also yesterday was my birthday (and no one else's, don't believe the rumors) (also I don't know how old I am so don't ask), so I think by birthday rights you've got to play along. I don't make the fucking rules, okay.

Or also don't play along. I'm not your fucking parent and be grateful for that.

I've never really had trouble with springtime and the sneezing and runny nose that some folks can get, but apparently my luck ran out. Not too helpful when half your house is full of plants and flowers that you've grown yourself, but here we are.

I also keep Has anyone else been
vnjksvd



The sneezing is getting a bit out of control and in the way of my typing.

[...] And I'm also being rather blunt, which I don't know if that is just me being tired or something more than that, but I apologize in advance if I'm more frank than usual. Not that I'm not always klgflklk usually honest, I just am usually pretty good at um diplomacy.

I know we hate these fucking portals, but there better be one because there is not a chance in the hells that both my fiance and sister disappeared right in front of me and it can't be fixed.

Added later:

No place better to start a list.

So, uh.

Are we still looking for the portal guy? Because it just kinda dropped out of the sky from a portal and flew off. The portal isn't there anymore, but just checking that no one suddenly disappeared or anything, because that would be a problem.

EDIT: Witches and wizards and magical folk of Vallo, do you have magical ways to track glitchy, invisible beasts? And ones that can fly. Me and Kratos ??? want to know.

EDIT 2: Anyone who is familiar that sounds so wrong but that's the words that F with the beast, can you come describe it to Fresh Cut Grass?

Alright so, I've been thinking with these alternate worlds and portals and shit. There seems to just be an infinite number of possibilities, but I guess that was always fucking obvious given how we're all from our own weirdo worlds and some are super samesie but just off axis just a smidge or whatever.

So here's what I'm curious about. Share with the class something about your world that's totally fucking normal to you, but someone from another would stare at you like you sprouted additional heads if you told them. This can be something big (example: the moon is a prison) to something smaller (example: broccoli is sentient), whatever you want. Fucking dazzle me.

AKA I'm pretty sure I've watched every documentary there fucking is and I need to be entertained, let's go.

Hey there, newcomers--and also not-newcomers, since I've been told everyone should be connected onto our networks now. Obviously let us know if that's not the case--well, I guess you wouldn't be seeing this if it wasn't, so. Let us know if it is and that's one thing done.

Anyway, I'm Orym and it really is nice to see some new faces, even if it's from strange circumstances. (I say that as though arriving via tree onto a space station is normal, but after a few years it really is.)

If there's anything you need or have questions about, let us know.
