vallo

So by now ah- most of you are aware we had a situation at the Library. We still don't have all of the details - I don't know if we ever will, but what we do know is this:

Ashurbanipal, King of Assyria, approached the library this morning, and challenged King Noctis in an attempt to rule Vallo? Unaware that Noctis is not the King of Vallo.

He threatened Nancy, and the Library wards went defensive, one of the skeletons was killed in the mess, and the King took that as a challenge.

The library went into lockdown mode, and there was a fight. I do believe they underestimated a whole group of librarians.

Nancy was able to knock the amulet off of the King's neck, and that was when the skeletons all disappeared? We have it now, but the amulet is damaged, and the king is gone. I put it in a protected vault for the moment but we'd feel more comfortable if one of the covens takes it, so we're going to reach out to them later for that.

We do have some casualties and people are being taken to the clinic now, but I don't think anything was fatal. Mike, Darlington took Nancy there just a few minutes ago and you may want to visit.

Full disclosure that I am also on my way there now, but I was told by triage that it "should be an easy heal". I didn't even realize I just had a

If anyone has any other information to share, we'd love to hear it at the library, since we'll be documenting this in its entirety.

Because I had absolutely no signal on our honeymoon (it was planned that way) I just want to say thank you to everyone who made it to our wedding last Saturday. You all looked fabulous by staying on theme. Now that we've been back for a little over 24-hours-ish, I have pictures. You're all stuck having to look at them because my husband (I know I said I would never be this person, but marriage changes you and I am a changed woman) looked good.

( This is an OOC cut. )

I'm still managing the rest of the week off from Nino's so don't come looking for me there if you want pizza or good customer service. Nothing exploded while we were gone? I feel like I would have sixth-sensed it from our getaway, but worth asking anyway.

How far back in time does Vallo pull people from? I think I saw an ancient Assyrian (possibly Sumerian? I'm not an expert on the period) walking very purposefully through the town this morning. I thought about asking him, then recalled the elephant's 'satiable curiosity and decided I should probably not. (Kipling is problematic, but I retain my childhood fondness for the Just So Stories nonetheless).

The east wing bathroom poltergeist is back. Gansey, do you think you could shoo him off until the exorcist can get here? I've put up the Out of Order sign in the meantime in hopes that no one else gets sprayed in the face by the bathroom sink.

I took several videos of my husband as a kraken, for those who missed it and would like to see. He's very impressive.

I have been doing research. You said that you did not require a bachelorette party. My research, however, is claiming this is very essential and something that someone in my role or equivalent would plan, so I am checking: are you sure you do not need this celebration? I would be happy to plan something for you, even if.

Can you think of anything else that you may require for school? I know this is an unpleasant subject, but anything else you can think of that we can get before next week, I would like to hear of it.

Also I changed my mind. Willi can stay at the house.

The farm is half under water. Anybody with water powers want to come help us out? I can pay. Or dream you up something if money's not your thing.

Ok look I'm in waders right now but I still need to fucking say this or I'll forget until the night before and Parrish will be bitchy with me. Gansey and Sargent engagement party, this friday night, at the great library. Technically it's a birthday party for the runt too so like, give her a noogie or something. There will be two cakes, so nobody give me any shit.

You're Invited!

I require dish ideas for zucchini, particularly those that hide it enough that a young kenku might not realize they are an ingredient.

I will also accept people willing to take some zucchini themselves.



Basically, I may have planted too much zucchini. And the golem is staring at me and I know it is irrational, but it feels as though they are judging my gardening hubris and

CALEB

Hello.

I've distracted her for the last fifteen minutes with a rotating Pinterest board of ridiculous wedding ideas so that I could beat her to this announcement (because if that isn't a healthy start to an engagement, what is?):

Blue Sargent asked me to marry her and I'm ecstatic to announce that I accepted. She'll tell you she won the competition but honestly, I'm the winner, in every way. I'm a very very lucky man.

Stay tuned for more information such as dates and venues though I think that's already de but it's safe to assume you can at least find the brightest and most eclectic formalwear.

I found myself with several years of new memories this morning and ah- an extra attachment to my body.

We call it a Collar of Silence. They are primarily used to shut down the magic of spellcasters in our world, and this one has been improved upon even the most original foundation.

This is to say that I am unable to speak and cast any magic, and Essek and Gilmore have been unable to remove it from me in the last 37 minutes that we have been trying.

If any of you are able to come to my tower to offer your help, I would appreciate it. The kids are going to suspect something very soon and I do not want to alarm them.

ETA Unfiltered - 1hr later:
Ah- I am afraid that I will be a little late to Arcane Trickster camp today, but it is still going on as intended. If anyone that has not signed up to volunteer but finds themselves available and bored, we would happily accept a few extra helpers today. Danke.

( Fun new things found in middle of our walk to Darla today. )

So, uh, keep an eye out for tree attacks potentially? This one did nothing to us though, so it just might just be a really creative artist out there making tree art. Adora, Catra, left food in your oven. You guys were passed out in Finn's room and we weren't going to wake you because I'm not that much of an asshole. Today.

FRIENDS/FAMILY/PEOPLE WHO KNOW KIR & KIRI/ETC

Good day, I hope you are all having a relaxing weekend thus far.

We wanted to invite you all to a party for Kir and Kiri's birthday on July 5th, which will be taking place on the ship starting around 2PM. We will provide dinner and, of course, cake and there will be a number of outdoor things to do, including a rope course and one of the bouncing castles with a slide that will go into the water, as well as less physically taxing activities. (Safety has been taken into account; there is a pit of balls for the ropes and we will have the water sectioned off at the beach, were that a concern.) It will be an afternoon and evening of summer fun as we celebrate two very wonderful children.

Feel free to come and go as your time allows and, of course, children are more than welcome, too.

Ah I never know how to end this sort of Thank you and we hope to see you there for the celebrations. There.

How many drunk ~incredibly powerful~ magic users does it take to teleport home?

(more than three apparently)




And thank you to everyone that came to prom! This commo commm community never fails to impress me with the support and just know that the kids appree appreciate you just as much as I do. I'm incredibly grateful.

Also I hope you all took food because duck fuck me there was so much of it.

Out of curiosity, is anyone missing what I assume is a moorbounder kitten?

( cut for image! )

Or has the pet distribution system of Vallo just extended to my hydrangeas, as that is where I found this little one this morning?

FRIEND & FAMILY TYPES

As it is now official at school as of Monday, I wanted to let you all know that I have made the choice to resign my position at Geliara and will not be returning to the classroom come fall. This has been a consideration for a while now and recent events have left me deciding that this is the best way forward, as it will allow me to focus on home and my personal endeavors and research. I am looking forward to being supported by my husband in my old age.

I simply wanted to let you all know, as you are my favorites and I thought you may want to be apprised of such a change--and now you know, so. Thank you?.

Random thoughts on a Tuesday night. Leave a comment here if you'd have any interest in bringing Roller Derby to Vallo. Either playing or spectating. The idea got stuck in my head earlier, and want to see what the public opinion is before I spend any more time thinking about it.

Alright, it's been a hot second and nothing too wild and fucking crazy has happened around here in at least, I don't know, thirty-seven hours. So it's fucking time for another round of What the Fuck Is Up With That.

Rules again, because there's got to be some fucking rules, I guess.

Rule 1: Comment with your name or some shit below.
Rule 2: Reply to those comments with questions to that person, specifically with "what the fuck is up with that" somehow involved.
Rule 3: Reply to those questions.
Rule 4: Fucking rinse and repeat.

For example, because I'm helpful:

I put my name down there. Someone comes along and says, "Fucking hell, Ashton, you're so much cooler, stronger, and prettier than Chetney. What the fuck is up with that?" And I'd just be like, "You know what, you're damn right and you should say it."

So that's it. Ask questions, answer them, let's get to know each other. Bonus points if you're drinking as this happens, unless you're underage or some shit in which case stick to juice because I said so and I'm a real fucking good influence.
