War Is Coming Communications.

Just want to let you all know that as of tomorrow "The Magic Box" is officially open for Business to cater to all your magical supply needs, if we don't have it in we will do our best to try and obtain whatever it is you need.

Feel free to drop over and come shopping, discounts offered to all displaced.

When the mayor's wife calls and asks if you'd like to be the event planner for funding the new children's library that they want to get off the ground it's hard to say no. Especially with all of the compliments about the charity ball for the children's wing at the hospital that I did last year.

I can totally do this on top of school. And family things.

I suggest anyone who does the stock market to look into the post-it notes one because I'm so buying out all of the ones I can find in the next few days. Idk how that thing actually works but yeah.

Also anyone who wants to help, let me know.

You'd think after such a long time here I'd have realised the numbers on the toaster device correspond to minutes. I truly believed it was some kind of degrees of toasting of the food

I hate to be the one to raise this, but with Loki gone, we will need a custodian for our building. And with the librarian girl gone as well.

Our ranks have been diminished haven't they, still there are newcomers. Even some, I believe, that have magic. So if you are of that inclination and have no idea what this is about? My name is Anastasia, known to some as the Red Queen. Ask away.

The problem with knowing how to work the netflix.  Is that I found stuff with my face twin in it.

I mean, it was sort of funny.  And, true love prevailed in the end.  But, it was really weird to watch my face do things,

My thanks to everyone that got involved with the patrols.

I think at this point we can step them down, if anyone wants to keep doing them, then feel to let me know. I don't think abandoning them altogether is prudent, if we can ease them way back so that there is just one or two sweeps a night it shouldn't be too much for people and we can hopefully keep in good practise for future problems.

What are these patrols I keep reading about, and how do I sign up?

If there is anything I can do to help out with what's going on, I'd be happy to.

Any extra slots available for patrols? I want to do whatever I can to help.

[Davina]

Hey. How are you doing? And are you up for a visit? I got you something from Russia.

[Ginny]

Thank you for coming back and getting us. I'm glad I'm back here instead of five thousand miles away. Can I take you out to dinner tonight as thanks? It probably isn't enough, but I do remember you like being treated to food and drink.

[OOC: Backdated to Friday since OMG my new job is wiping me out and I went to bed really early last night]

OK Buffy has gathered a number of volunteers to help patrol, I'm looking at organising them to best cover as many of the Key areas as possible.

If you have anywhere you want me to consider a key area that could benefit from supervision then let me know at the moment I'm planning on covering the routes from the 3 main drinking areas to the two main guest areas But I'm still new here so don't know where else needs covering so let me know and I'll work our limited volunteer resources as effectively as possible.

I've heard about the attack but if anyone can give me exact location / time information I'd appreciate it, I'm trying to find any patterns but can't see anything yet which implies its not random.

Happy New Year!!! This is my first one!

"...OK so it works like this...

...and I just talk and people hear me...stupid fandangled contraption... ok...can you hear me..."


"HELLO OUT THERE! I'm Rupert Giles and I'm looking for a Miss Summers or anyone from Sunnydale California, or any others from the Watchers Council of Great Britain. Would anyone have happened to have made their acquaintance?
...Infernal Machine how do I turn it off?...

...Oh Gods an earthquake did I cause that?..."

Has anyone seen Buffy? She didn't show for her training this evening.

Right/..First I'd like to apologize for my cabbage like slowness. Forgive me, I'm still adjusting to this bloody machine. I don't quite understand how to use it. I have been busy familiarizing myself with the layout of the city, getting around and successfully not getting lost. And now I would like to get my hands dirty with some reading material of this worlds demons. Is there a library where such things might exist?

[ooc: typos necessary, Giles can't type. XD]

Okay, Project Library is go! We've got a room aaaall the way upstairs, 814 (thanks Andrew!)

All we have to do now is get it cleared out, and then have to move in a couple more shelves, and some chairs, we don't have much of a collection yet, but it's a start.

I figure since there's not a lot of books yet we can use it as kind of a game room too, I found some puzzles and a couple board games the last time I went to the thrift store, they're in the closet there.

Who's with me?

Right, here's the deal, I'm here to reign on the nice greeting parade.

My name is Buffy Summers, Vampire Slayer. Once upon a time use to be the Vampire Slayer, now there's more of us, there's a few of us here.

I'm well aware there's vampires I can't kill, but don't think for one second that just because I can't kill you, I can't kick the the shit out of you, and that I won't. And I'm aware there's plenty of you that I can kill.

Anyone who wants to live in the complex is welcome as long as you can walk past the doors. This is vampires included. But if I catch wind of humans being drained of blood, of humans turning (and I will know about that), or of humans being bit? It is my destiny to hunt down vampires, and you will be sought out.

You may view this as harsh. A bet there's probably some simply laughing at me. Please, underestimate me, that works better for me. Frankly, I don't care how harsh or delusional you may think I am. Stick to blood banks, butchers and animals and there won't be trouble. I won't hold being a vampire against you. I will hold you hurting humans against you.

Just so we're all aware Vampire Slayer generally translates to -> anything supernatural that hurts humans slayer.

[Filtered to Complex Heads]

Because we don't have enough super-powerful beings here with bad attitu Just a day So, uh, I just wanted to point it out just case no one noticed. But the new blonde guy that looks exactly Riku? Is Dracula. Yes, that one.

You've been informed. Now you can carry on with your daily routines.

I thought that I should go ahead and introduce myself what with all of the new arrivals. And while, I know most most of us are pretty helpful, but things do have a habit of getting hectic here. People forget, things are lost in translation, and a bunch of other reasons which lead to it not hurting for me to put this information up twice. But, alright. Done rambling. Onto the important stuff.

My name is Paige Matthews and I'm third in command of the apartment complex. The complex is free of charge. Just show up and walk through the door and we'll give you a room. I know it sound crazy and suspicious but since we're all in this together. Thank you, high school musical It really can't hurt us any to help each other out. If you don't feel comfortable living in the complex, you don't have to. It's the safest place to be but no one is going to force you into anything. Just let me know and I'll try my best to help you find a nice enough motel.

Information about how things work. If you haven't read it already, please, please do. I can't stress enough how important that information is. If you need more details, I'll try my best to flesh things out for you.

Two more things. Bobby Singer runs a training camp for all of the new arrivals. The camp is for anyone eighteen and older. Please don't complain about it. My head still hurts fr It runs for one week and it teaches you what you need to know about the monsters in this world. We do have classes in the complex, but the ones having to do with the supernatural just teach you how to defend yourself and about demons. If you're willing and capable to teach a self-defense class. Just tell me your name. You'll have to show us that you can actually defend yourself but other than that we appreciate all the help we can get. In anything. If you have any sort of useful skill and you want to share it, just tell me, Buffy Summers, Andrew Wells, or Needy Lesniki and we'll see what we can do.

Last thing. We seem to have a few new arrivals of the supernatural variety. I'm not naming what because as one, I can respect people's privacy. The policy is a really easy one. Don't hurt anyone and we won't have any trouble. I don't care if you're a vampire, werewolf, werebear, were-other animal, witch, wizard, warlock, fairy, giant, leprechaun ... You get the picture. I know that the rules are different in other realities. So just because something is evil here and in my home dimension doesn't mean that they're evil in yours. I'm not going to assume.

What I will say is .. if you're a vampire and you need to know where to get animal blood at a cheap price, there are people who can help you. If you're a were-animal and you need help with the full moon, let us know and we'll help you. If you're a were-animal and you don't? Well. Just carry on.

That said. I'm really looking forward to meeting and getting to know all of you. Even Remember, if you need anything, just ask. Chances are there is someone here that can and is willing to help you.

I spent the morning going to nurseries around here to see if any of them are hiring. Thankfully, one of them was extremely understaffed, so I get to start at Sunrise Garden Center tomorrow. I suppose this is one of the times where I can actually be glad that it's a good thing most people aren't too interested in plants.

It's too bad most of the ones here aren't as interesting as the ones back home.

So the healing is mostly coming along.

Still, I'm taking a few days. Checking into a hotel for a couple of nights. Probably one with a spa.

Try not to need me. Try really hard.

Bloody hell. I need a drink and a library.
