This just had to be done the night of the full, didn't it Seal?

Well, we appear to have had a large influx of people, as well as the mass exodus.

Has everyone found somewhere to stay? My name is Catherine Glass, and I'm the Manager of Greaves House. There are plenty of apartments available for anyone that needs them. Just talk to me, or James Kirk if you're interested.

There are also apartments at Sanctuary who you would need to talk to Natasha Romanaff about, I believe.

A large amount of the people who laid the wards around Greaves House have been taken by the seal. Would anyone be willing to lay some more for us? We can pay you.

Its Tom's birthday in a couple of days and as it happens, he's had rather a bad track record with celebrating this, not to mention he has lost two good friends to the seal as of late. It's been a hard time for him, which is why I hope you will all join me two days hence at 7pm for just such an event. I've hired a hall and food is of course to be provided.

I thought it might do us good to have something good to focus on

So Adam mentioned I'd been here before and some people might know me?

Jesse's gone.

I'm not a huge fan of this weather. And, I thought England was supposed to be full of bad weather.

But, it's nice that it's sunny today. I just wish the wind chill didn't make that obsolete.

[Werewolves]

All the same. I have the urge to go for a run. I believe a fur coat would be preferable right now. Would anyone like to join me.

Can we go somewhere warmer?

In a week Aidan will have been two for a whole month. He hasn't shown many of the signs of what every blog I've read calls "the terrible two's" but I'm prepared. What I have noticed from him is that he's been quiet and sad for days. Nothing we do can bring a smile to his face. At first I thought he may be sick but he just had a checkup and he was perfectly healthy. And then it dawned on me when he threw a book about birthdays across his room today. He has never gotten the chance to celebrate his birthday. I was absent for his first birthday and his second was spent with the two of us bonding. I've spent the last hour debating the pros and cons of planning a party for him despite his birthday having passed. And now I come to you for your opinions. Should I plan a small party for him?

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

[Magic Users]

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.

So. Apparently this wasn't all a dream. Doctor? Jemma? Are you still here?

[Greaves House Management*]

I'm not sure if I still need to talk to James, but I would very much like to move back in. I understand if I can't have my old apartment back, but being there would be more familiar than being somewhere else.

[Stark Industries Management]

After I get settled again I suppose I would need to get a job. Is my old position of training people in company protocol still open? If it isn't I completely understand and I can look for employment elsewhere.

[OOC: Catherine can answer but when I put up the reference post she's got 104, I believe.]

A... A... graveyard? Is this a joke? It's a shit joke, I'll tell you that!

So. Anyone feel like helping me practice my Russian? Kenzi, I'm looking at you here, but anyone will do.

[Rose T.]

You know how I was in Europe at the start of last year? I need to go back for a week this month. Possibly two. The guy I worked for needs someone who speaks fluent Russian, and since Chekov taught me years ago and I know the company well I fit the bill. He wants me to leave by the 8th at the latest, but earlier would be better.

[Catherine]

How would you feel about becoming the general manager at Greaves House?

A short cut was take but the house on the hunting grounds is finished and fully furnished. And apparently the food inside is never ending. I hope it's to everyone's satisfaction.

( Cut for size )

So, the seal actually does nice things occasionally as well, does it?

[Filtered to Hal]

Do you know what you're wishing for this time?

I cannot win, can I? My friends are all getting taken away and he's probably still here.

Roll call. Who's still here?

[Greaves House Residents]

So Harry and I talked about what would happen if one or both of us got taken back. I've inherited ownership of the complex so I'm the owner now instead of just the general manager. Nothing's going to change, but I wanted to make all of you aware.

[Georgina & Damien]

Thanks for last night. I appreciate it.

How many of you knew?

I've yet to decide what to do with my unexpected perfectly ordinary Thursday off.

Any ideas?

I'm actually quite looking forward to the Halloween party on Friday.  Considering, I've never been to one before.  It does seem like quite an interesting tradition to have started up.

Is there anything else I need to be aware of about this holiday?  Anything at all?

I think the reason we don't have pumpkin stuff year-round is because by the time the season is over we've all overdosed on it.

But for now EVERYTHING IS PUMPKIN AND NOTHING HURTS.

[Greaves House]

Sooooo
On a scale of one to absolute friggin killjoy, how lame am I for aski
I don't wanna be the one who goes DON'T HAVE FUN WITH HALLOWEEN, BITCHES, 'cause Halloween. But is it cool if we maybe make it a thing where no zombie or gore things happen outside apartments? I hate to even fucking ask, it's stupid and, shit, I should be over it by now but I

I'll get everyone tons of candy?

[Claire]

How am I doing?

Also, how're you doing?

Also, how much do you think Mal likes ridiculous plastic spiders?

[Pretty]

I had an idea that might be absolutely terrible but you should probably let me know if it is/isn't.

Stupid ancient old horror movies. The ones that have, like, giant killer leeches that are dudes wrapped in trash bags and shit. I miss laughing at "scary" movies, but I also am liking this thing where I can actually sleep sometimes, so... a compromise with my own brain? Or do you think that would just be bad news?

All the talk of Halloween, anyone interested in Bonfire Night? Not just the British either. Not so much a party as, I don't know, marshmallows and hot drinks and such? Annie made us do it that one year.

[Tom]

There, I've been social. I don't know what you expect to happen.
