War Is Coming Communications.

I just finished my application for KU and handed it in to my guidance counselor on Friday. She was a little disappointed that I wasn't applying anywhere else and I couldn't exactly say I needed to stick around to help stop the apocalypse, so I had to make up some story about needing to stay close to home because of "family stuff." So now, between that and telling them when I enrolled last year that I didn't know much history or literature because my parents were religious fundamentalists who had been homeschooling me, I am pretty sure the Lawrence High administration now thinks that I was raised in a cult or something. Sorry, family?

I also finished the application a little over a month early, so I have time to decide if I want to apply to the KU honors college. Except I don't have a freshman/sophomore GPA and I didn't start out at all A's, especially in history, junior year, and I only even got moved to AP track this year, so it's sort of a wild card whether I would get in or not since the average GPA they accept is 3.9 and mine is...lower 3.7 so not much but I'm not. So I don't know. None of you were academics before you were pulled through to here who could tell me whether I should even try, were you?

Of course I guess the world could just end in a big ball of fire before June and I'll be worrying for nothing, but I like to think positive.

Kon
Have you thought about what you're going to do after we graduate? You know, if we survive till June.

Can't we just...do the table thing for the bad ghosts and, you know, keep the rest?

no this isnt
if this is a joke i will ki

ga

hes gone. completely.


[ooc: basically Forcepeople just got a brief ASFHDFHADFHDFHAJDFNHLADFKHNALDFH of upset from Jaina, and then she went radio silent (not 'shut down' officially, 'cause she doesn't know how yet, but as quiet as she can get without disappearing entirely). *thumbs up*]

So many ghosts that could have come to me. So many that died at my hand or my order and it brings me one I actually...missed.

Not that I suspect many of you will agree.

Where are you? I mean, where have you been staying? I haven't heard from

Anyone in the mood to spar? It has most decidedly been one of those days.

[Luke]

I have a favour to ask you that I believe you are best placed here to deal with.

A friend of mine, I suppose you might say, is dealing rather messily with a berevement and the general feeling is that he could do with someone to talk to. You are compassionate about such things, much more so than I, and far enough removed from the situation that I believe you could help him. Would you be willing?

[Tenel Ka]

How are you faring? Is there anything I can do ...are you ready to talk or would you rather I keep my distance?

I'm afraid that some difficult matters have interfered with our little club yet again. I'd like to invite anyone that might be interested in doing so to feel free to run away, so to speak, with this idea.

I do not believe that at the moment I will be capable of following through with my intentions of arranging things.

And I'd like to apologize to you all for bringing the idea up but never quite managing to bring it to fruition.

[Allana]

[Jacen]

[Mara]

[Master Skywalker]

[Jaina]

[Master Skywalker & Mara]

I am uncertain as to what I should do now, to be quite frank.

[Allana]

How are you, sweetheart?

Why does Disney's Evil Queen suddenly look a hell of a lot more like my stepgrandmother than she did, oh, say, a year ago? I see what you did there, Disney. ABC and all. The irony isn't lost on me, guys.

In unrelated news, you can tell college is starting back up. All 3 bedroom apartments in the area have been snatched up like lightning fast. Everyone wants to go back all buddy-buddy with their bffs, obviously. Nice for them, not so good for apartment hunting.

[Darcy A]

I just wanted to let you know, you were right.

I am pregnant. And I've known for a while. A couple of people already knew but I didn't want it getting around until Henry knew. Which now he does so... Whatever. I can't change it and if people don't like it, too damn bad.

I'm sorry I had to lie to you.

[Peter Vincent]

If you have a few minutes, I could use your expertise.

...Seems I'm never free of the Dark Side.

Nor can I explain...any of why it happened

I'd apologize but it will just happen again inevitably. Perhaps I should start banking the apologies.

[Tenel Ka]

How do I even begin...?

If you wish me to leave for a while, I can do so.

You people.

You all should have been dead long ago with how you act. Or have you just assumed someone else will clean up your messes this long.

someone got out and he's not happy and I think i have my phone back so I can tell you it hurts, it's like knives.

Ariel and Clark
are you still here? can you see this?

We have a location for where the hostages are being kept. We're sending you guys in first as it seems you should be able to talk them out of it and pull them out yourselves.

I'll be monitoring the situation and I'll have back-up ready to go if we need it. Meet me at the Watchtower as soon as possible.

[Filtered to Oliver, Zatanna, Cole, Vic, John]

A team is going into the carnival to rescue the three remaining hostages, please stand by. I'll call you guys in for back-up if necessary.

I heard about your daughter. What do you need to help?

We are getting her back.

Whatever it takes.

I need help, I messed up, I los

[[ooc: So Allana went to the carnival looking for Ariel last night, got offered a ride on the carousel, played along hoping to learn more and lost her protective amulet and...oops. This is what happens when you get over-confident! She's physically regressed to about eight years old, and her Force presence and abilities will also degrade to that level, though she'll feel like a very weird eight year old in the Force since she remembers being eighteen. Force users expect to feel lots of wtf/fear/anger/some pain as she gets stuffed in a cage after trying to escape/cause trouble. This will be her last comms thing till rescue since her phone gets taken]]

How many are returning to school soon? It seems that summer has gone quite fast.

[Allana]

Are you feeling ready for school, sweetheart? Is there anything that you need at the moment?

[Jaina]

I haven't spoken with you lately. How have you been?

[Jacen]

I'm going to put together another book club meeting soon.

I would also like to make another night soon. Dinner and everything. Maybe this weekend?

[Book Club]

How many of us are still left and interested? I have dropped the ball on keeping up with things and I apologize.

We could, perhaps, rush into things a bit more this time?

Lets use this time we have now to focus on gathering our strengths, work out what we have, what power we possess and what we can do with it.

I try not to think like a leader but it doesn't always work out that way and I see gaps we need to have filled. We don't need one leader, we shouldn't have that. But we need to play to our strengths.

[Tenel Ka]

While things are mercifully calmed I do believe I would like to woo my beautiful wife.

Dinner? We can go out, make a night of it?

[Luke and Mara]

Would you be agreeable to some kind of family gathering? I ask because of, well, our history. But for the sake of the others we've all agreed to put the past behind us.

This would be a start to that.

[Jaina]

What do we need to do? How do we go about fixing this between us?

I've tried to talk to Gabriel. Believe me, I have, and I've tried to accept you are not the Jaina of my past and your future. But there is still something wrong isn't there? Something we can work on.

Hello, my name is Tenel Ka. I do not believe that we have spoken in-depth before.

My Jacen I'm sure you're aware of current circumstances and I am also sure that there has probably been a reaction to your involvement with Mr. Moriarty, as there seems to have been all along. I am not judging your relationship or any of your decisions. I merely want to tell you that you are not alone. I understand the position that you are in completely, having once been there myself.

I'd also like to tell you that should you wish to talk or need anything I would be happy to oblige, without any sort of strings attached.

Just throwing something out here because this is familiar ground for me. You do see what he's doing right?

Spies in our midst, information getting back to him. Who knows what he has on these people? You find someone, you learn their deepest darkest secret or desire. You use it and slowly but surely you turn them to your purpose. And then you get the infighting. And that of course is an added bonus.

Cool heads will win this. He's counting on distrust and suspicion and chaos. I know I was.

In light of recent events, if anyone feels uncomfortable leaving the complex, or going out from anywhere, by themselves right now I can go along with you or do errands for you so you don't have to leave at all. I'm sure some of the other fighters who aren't already out looking for the person responsible for this would do the same. Just leave a comment here if you need anything?

Kon
We need to go back. I wish we could give you more time but...well, Lawrence. Or I need to go back at least and I'm pretty sure you're not going to tell Clark and I to have a nice time looking for a psychotic killer while you lounge on a beach so...
Kriff this sucks
