Thank God for my teacher's assistant, I swear. I think she'll be a godsend this semester, when we get everything up and running completely and I'm splitting my time between the university and the med centre. Has everyone else at the university survived their first week well enough?

[Leonard & Jemma]

So it appears as though my availability for the semester will be any day except Mondays, Wednesdays and my office hours on Fridays, which are from eleven to two this semester, plus any assorted faculty meetings or functions I have to be a part of. Is that going to be all right with both of you?

I like it much better when the Seal sends good things and not some of the stuff it's been tossing out. I never thought I'd see this photo album again. I'm really glad I have it.

After glancing at the calendar this morning it dawned on me that a very special little boy will be turning 5 in 47 days. I want this birthday to be unlike any that he has ever had and so therefore it will be a grand affair. The proverbial floor is open for theme suggestions.

You are also all cordially invited to come join us on September 7 for a Labor Day celebration. All you need bring is yourself and proper pool attire.

So, yeah just finally getting used to this place. Taking a bit of time to wrap my head around it.

I feel jealous. I feel jealous and I have no reason to feel jealous because I thought I'd made my peace with being alone but I feel jealous and it's strange. Is anyone else feeling things they don't think they should be feeling? Of course, now I feel lonely and I miss him all over again, which doesn't help.

At the very least I'm sleeping better. I'm thankful for that.

I was thinking, if you'd like, we could have tea and go over more ideas for the med centre. I talked to my superiors at the university and they said that they'll keep me at the three classes this term and assign me a TA to grade papers so that I can help with the rebuilding and be there more to assist with patients.

Mark off July 31st on your calendars, everyone. That's when Verdant will be holding our date auction with all proceeds going to helping out victims of the earthquake. Thanks so much to everyone who has volunteered to be auctioned off or to help work the event. The rest of you, I expect to see you all there with your wallets. You might score a hot date out if it and you'll be contributing to a really good cause.

ProTip: If you're not invulnerable, don't climb the piles of rubble, no matter how secure you think they are, because when that rubble decided to shift and you fall, you might just end up in the hospital. Seriously, we have enough magic users around here that if you want to try and recover some of your stuff, there are probably way safer ways to do it than climbing through the rubble and trying to dig it out yourselves.

In related news, Jim broke his arm this morning. He's hilariously high on painkillers at the moment and he's supposed to be resting, so if you need him - don't need him til Monday. Unless it's something me or Regina can help you with, in which case come to us.

[Molly]

I owe you big time. Thanks.

Remind me to buy you dinner or something when things calm down.

I don't understand the point of yesterday. The celebrating, the - fireworks? - the party and everything. This is how you grieve in this world? How you put people to rest?

This week has sucked pretty epically. We've lost a lot of people. Most of us have lost our homes and the majority of our belongings, if not all of them. I probably came out of this luckier than most, but it still sucks. We have a lot to mourn for.

But - and this is probably going to piss some people off - we have a lot to be grateful for, too. This week has sucked, but it could have been so much worse. We'll band together. We'll rebuild. We'll keep living, because that's what you do, even when things get bad.

Now, I know you probably don't feel like celebrating right now, but I think we should. I think we should celebrate the fact that we're still alive and that the world didn't end. Regina and I were planning a BBQ for tomorrow, anyway, and we're still going to do it. It'll be at my cabin, the one near the graveyard, and yeah, it's not quite as awesome as the house was, but there'll be good food, there'll be plenty to drink and most importantly, there'll be good company.

Tomorrow afternoon, starting around 1. You're all invited. Once the sun goes down, there'll even be a cool light show.

Is there anyone who needs any injuries looked at now that we're all hopefully a bit more settled?

[Alicia]

Are you all right, love?

[OOC: Set after the earthquake and whatever drama is unfolding at the med center with Jemma]

Bloody hell, the med centre...

Right then. If you are injured and you are one of our "special" residents, I'm working with the local hospital at the University's medical center pitching in with triage care. Find me and I'll take care of you personally. Ask for Dr. Molly Hooper, all right? I'm a professor on campus so I'm fairly well known.

Any minor injuries, come to us. I'm talking broken bones that aren't protruding, lacerations, concussions...injuries of that sort. Major injuries are all being directed to the hospital.

Any volunteers we can get with medical or first aid knowledge would be lovely right about now.

The world has gone extremely, unnaturally quiet - either that or I can't hear anything. I've just about up to he

I've been sitting here trying to decide if all these bizarre things are connected, or if it just keeps happening - considering I think there have been weird things since I showed up, and so far no particular thread between them - it's really difficult to determine that.

It's nice to be back to normal. Maybe if we're lucky the Seal will leave us alone this week? Though, knowing our luck, if I were to take bets I'd lose soundly.

Alright, Lawrence. Looks like we're back then.

Uhmmm, if you don't know me. I'm Tom, I was here before and all. And, with me mates. And we all seem to have arrived together.

Anywhere, yeah. Hi.

Cassius is gone, if his shifts need to be filled, I can try and handle that.

It appears that both Will Scarlet and Anastasia Tremaine have been sent back. Once again we're being taken one by one

[Robin Hood]
I would like for you and Roland to move in here with us.

I don't know how much more of this I can take, I really don't.

This is far too freaking

If you're seeing ghosts, get yourself in a salt circle. And, if you have it, a shotgun with some damned rocksalt rounds. These ghosts will freaking kill you.

He shot himself in the head. I autopsied his body myself. But he was

Moriarty is dead, right? Or vanquished or whatever the bloody hell it is that happens to demons here. He can't actually be here, can he?

And there goes another one. Ariel's gone, too.

I didn't really notice how big this house was until now.
