I understand everyone's excitement about the town barrier being down, I really do. It's not exactly a way home for many of you, but it must be nice to know you can venture out and explore beyond this town. I'm sorry we don't have more answers about what you will find out there.

Because we don't know so much, I urge you to be careful if you do venture outside of town. Please don't go off alone, take some means of communication with you, such as a cell phone. We don't know how far our network will extend and we want you to be able to call for help if you should need it.

We've managed to get by this far by all sticking together and we need to do that now more than ever. I know we won't get the answers some of you need about what's waiting outside the town line without exploring and I'm not telling anyone not to leave. I just want you all to be careful. We are all Storybrookers, no matter what realms we originally came here from. We're a family and I think it's more important now than ever that we remember that.

That said, how do you feel about checking out some portals with me?

I really do love this time of year.

I don't know what it is, but the autumn weather reminds me of my mother the farm I grew up on.

Ruth is going to look adorable in her Halloween costume, and even if she won't remember it I plan on taking plenty of pictures to embarrass her with later. I'm looking forward to taking her out and doing some trick-or-treating.

I should probably also take a moment to announce that I plan on running for Sheriff, and possibly making my temporary position a more permanent one.

Emma
You and Neal should come with us and bring Lily. And Henry, if he doesn't have other plans.

Snow
You and I need to have a date night soon, Mrs. Charming. I think Henry's just about old enough to earn some money babysitting, don't you?

I forgot how exhausting children could be. Our little girl is absolutely perfect, but I'll be glad when she learns to sleep through the night.

And on that note, I'm going to take a nap while I can.

This is astonishing! A world in which there are no servants or lords. I'm unsure how to proceed. I suppose I shall have to get a job like a peasant! So novel. Do tell me there are places available for a prince? I saw a stable.

This place is quite confusing. I'm uncertain what to make of it.

The birds have explained quite a bit, and a very kind woman showed me how to use this, but I really don't know what to do here.

My name is Cinderella. Does anyone need help cooking or cleaning or anything like that? I am very good at housework.

I forget.

Is it against the rules for me to attempt to use magic to get rid of my baby's cold? Tally is in misery. My poor little girl.

As you've likely seen, Snow and I once again plan to host a Thanksgiving dinner for the town's residents who wish to attend.  Considering how much the town's population has grown over the last year, I think we'll need somewhere to host this other than our apartment.  Do you have any suggestions?

And would-  And if-  I know that Henry would-  You're welcome to join us, if you'd like.

Will you be joining Snow and I for Thanksgiving?

It's that time of year again! David and I will once more be opening our home to those who do not have alternate plans on Thanksgiving. I only ask that you RSVP as soon as you are able so that we know how many to expect.

Somethibg else is getting very close, too. I suppose we should talk about names.

It's been more than a year since our first arrivals here in town.  Storybrooke has always had a very odd sense of what normal is, but- I suppose this is our new one.  For now.

In other news, I still have the best grandchildren ever.

I know it's bragging to say it, but I have the cutest grandbaby in the world. It's just fact. And so much like her mother when she was a baby.

Emma, Neal, if you need anything at all, just let us know. And by that I mean I just want to hold the baby more.

I'm glad you've got your daughter back, kid. If you need anything, let me know. Do not kill the jackass who responded to your post. At least not until I'm off maternity leave.
/PRIVATE

This is officially the last child I am having. The one time I could use some magical help and magic goes down. What's the use of having magical powers if you can't use them to help people with pain?

[info]asifallaway

So, magic's back. That's a thing.

And...uh...Emma had the baby.

I totally meant to post something or tell people. But...I kind of panicked?

How terrible would it make me if I said teaching was a lot easier without magic and superpowers? I know some of you are uncomfortable without them, and I understand, but recess is much simpler without anyone threatening to curse anyone else.

[Friends & Family]
It has happened. I'm tired of being pregnant. I'm huge and clumsy and annoyed at everything. Someone come watch terrible chick flicks with me and keep me from being mean to my husband. (I love you, David. No matter how much everything is obviously your fault.)

I feel bad for not being more sympathetic to people when someone with their face shows up. It really is pretty jarring.

But at least she's an Avenger, so probably not evil? None of them seem evil. I don't really want an evil twin. Unless her being good means I am the evil twin. I'll need a mustache then.

Hello, Storybrooke! Nice little town here, I gotta say. Very picturesque. Seriously, it's giving me warm feelings for some hot chocolate right now, even if it is a billion degrees out right now.

Now before, I forget my manners, introductions. I'm Janet Van Dyne, Avenger and fashion designer extraodinaire. Also, speaking of Avengers, I saw some names on this thing that looked pretty familiar to me. Hi guys!

Why has there not been a magically-arrived massage therapist coming through? Or if there is, I'd like to be your best friend, please. Or pay you, that would also be fine.

There is a crucial lack of adult level hobbies in this town that don't involve hitting things, shooting things, or drinking things.

I haven't even found any community theater groups. Is that something I can start and manage, or do you have to have some level of superpower to do anything in this town?

I'm getting a lot of reports that there was a small explosion outside one of the towers. What the hell happened? Was anyone hurt? Who did it?

When are we having the block party? I think it might be a good thing to do, to keep people's minds off things.

I miss my husband. I do hope he's doing okay.

Though I am excited about the impending birth of the baby. It seems so far away, though....

So....

Since I am the Queen of planning parties, I'm thinking we should have one. I'd work to plan most of it-if it's okay-but I think it would be good. All the new people like me can meet all those who have been here or awhile or are citizens here. And hey! Drinking, games, food, music, and dancing? Come on people! It'll be fun! I promise.

I know that it was Ruby's idea, originally, but the more I think on it, the more I like the thought of doing a town-wide block party.  Who would like to help me plan the event?  (Ruby, I'm already counting you!)

And that's the last of the post-school-year work I have to do. So now I'm officially in the summer state of not knowing what to do with myself until I have to make lesson plans for next year. Because there are not that many kids in town to keep busy preparing for all summer.

I haven't felt kicking yet, but I have hit the craving portion of things, because the absolute only things I want to eat or drink is root beer floats and guacamole. That's it. At the same time, sometimes.

How's everyone? I saw a few people have been sent home lately - everyone else holding up okay?

I think I might need to find a job. But I don't think I have anything that qualifies as experience. Unless princess counts.

So....since it's now summer.

We need to have a block party.

Complete with food, games, and a water slide.

Because no summer block party is complete without a water slide.

Any takes?

Well met Storybrooke. I, Arthur Pendragon write here to inform you of an upcoming event.

My lady Guinevere and I wish to hold a gathering in celebration of our marriage and you are all invited to attend.

It is nothing so formal of course, anyone may join us - we know so few here that a lively occasion would be most difficult to otherwise hold. For all the strange magic and difficult departures this world seems to offer so regularly, we should like to counter it with some merriment for all to enjoy. I hope it may also give us the opportunity to know better those here.

The gathering will be held in the local park, from midday on the 28th of this month, June. Whilst we might not be able to hold a royal feast, we still hope to provide some food and drink for our guest, as well as the opportunity to dance as one might see at a royal court. If there is interest enough we plan to offer lessons shortly beforehand, the steps are quite simple.

Though perhaps, as we have neither musicians, nor instruments to keep time to we may need some help in replicating such as best as we may with modern devices, if anyone might be knowledgable?

There is no need to reply here, if you wish to attend, simply join us on the day. However you are most welcome to leave notice here if you would like to, or have something to ask. If anyone wishes to aid us holding the event, they are also welcome to, but by no means is anyone obligated.

Long weekends are the best, until they're over. And then it's like coming off of a mini-vacation. No one really wants to work, including me.

This is basically just my reasoning for why we did art projects and watched movies in class today.

The stories don't really get anything right, but if anyone has an easy line on mice that sew, they can come and patch my clothes, because my fingers are all needle pricks already, and I only barely started.

I miss having everything on the internet. It was strange seeing people from fictional worlds show up, but I liked being able to look it up so I didn't ask anyone uncomfortable things about their lives. Sometimes things pop out of my mouth before I think them through.

Emma, do you want to have lunch today, and catch up?

Today I got called an old maid by one of our regulars.

I'm 25 not 85. Just because everyone I'm closest to are getting together and having babies and getting married doesn't make me an old maid.

[info]littlewitch

You find out the most interesting things on your lunch break sometimes.

For example, I just found out that I'm pregnant. Can't say that that's what I expected.

Granted, it was a possibility. My husband and I have a lot of sex, and it's not like we're always exactly "careful".

[info]fairestone

Science fair projects end up much more interesting but much less scientific when there's magic in town. So far, my favorite was a project obviously done in twenty minutes the night before where they tried to explain why animals are likely to be able to talk. The conclusion was that they probably are already talking, we just aren't listening. Their research was a list of movies that aren't available to watch anymore, so they said we should just take their word.

I'm really glad I don't teach teenagers. At fourth grade, the teacher glare still works. And at least all the truth confessions I'm listening to mostly involve things that don't make me want to buy earplugs.

I still feel like I should avoid all adults until this is over, though. And I know it's probably not fair, but I still blame Regina for everything that goes wrong here.

The more people show up here, the more I realize that I'm not qualified to run things. I have a heart that people don't really see, because I don't want them to see. I don't believe in things like happily ever after, or love anymore. Not romantic love. The only person that matters is my son, but I wish it had been different sometimes.

As soon as this honesty thing stops, anyone who brings this up to me in person is not going to like me afterward.

So, this is a pretty elaborate set up. I'm impressed. But I'm dubious about the theme. Fairy tales are overdone. It's a waste of staging to go for a whitebread town where Snow White supposedly lives.

I never got that story anyway. I mean, when did necrophilia start to count as romantic?

Now that I'm impressed, I'd like to be done with this, now.

She's going to need blood. From an actual person. Moroi can't live on animal blood. Now, I could break into the hospital and get her some blood bags, but I'm trying this new thing where I don't do things that would get me arrested unless I absolutely have to. I don't even know how Lissa was I wish she was here

A live donor would be better, but since you guys don't have feeders and I don't see people here lining up no matter how good it feels, I'm hoping blood bags will work well enough. So this is me asking nicely if we can work something out.

Also, in the absence of Lissa, Sydney and Eddie, I'd like to officially request to be assigned as her guardian. At least until someone more appropriate shows up.
