Welcome to Night Vale: In Character

Shit. It's Thanksgiving isn't it? I should have made plans ahead of time. Friends, what are we doing?

[Liz Ortecho]
So. I might be having lunch with Max today.

Right. My name is Isobel Evans-Bracken, and I've been here for a couple of months now. I've been settling in, which is why I really haven't posted much on here. This probably sounds terrible.

Anyway, I'm trying this new thing where I go out and socialize more. I honestly really didn't do that enough back home. My brothers are here, and I have other people that I know from home, but I really would like to make some new friends.

So. Would anyone maybe be up for grabbing some coffee with me sometime?

Anyone know if the local law enforcement is hiring at all?

MICHAEL & ISOBEL

Sorry I've been a bit quiet lately. Just checking in. You both doing okay?

JENNA

Hey. How are you?

( this is halloween! this is halloween! )

Are you going to the Halloween thing tomorrow?

Wow. That was apparently a real quick turn around.

Not sure I want to do that again. I'm kind of dizzy. But that might be the rum.

I miss my ship

In honor of Halloween week, tune for tomorrow's afternoon radio show - we kick off the week with a segment devoted to spiders and shower caps. To entice you, did you know that spider rain is not actually a myth?

Also, female red widows will cannibalize their male sexual partners. Probably not new for some of you though, amirite?

First, I would like to apologize for how late this post is. I'm afraid I've allowed myself to get rather distracted by the portals reawakening. It's just so interesting. They went dormant for such a long time and then it all began again.

At any rate, I've been so delighted to see so many scientific minded people coming here. As someone who was once an outsider in Nightvale, I can understand how fascinating our town is.

That's why I am happy to announce that we've cleared out one of the older laboratory buildings for your use. It's set up to suit any area of pursuit and anyone is welcome to use it. Unfortunately, it is a little haunted but other than that, it's ready to go.

I just suggest using a great deal of caution in looking into things in town.

Yeah, okay. Took the wrong exit on the interstate, on the way to Florida, and end up in New Mexico. That's something that happens and is in the realm of normal. Right.

I really don't trust Google directions anymore.

Wanna take a self-defense class with me?

Michael! What did you do?

It feels wrong to be here without my brother.


[Alex]
You doing any better?

Ay Dios Mio. I really don't know how Michael drinks as much as he does without feeling like he's dying every morning. Ouch my head.

[Liz Ortecho]

[ooc note: there is a large surge of electromagnetic energy directly after Max's arrival that will cause the power to go out in a few nearby buildings. His post appears a few hours later.]

Anyone know if there's an Isabel Evans-Bracken or Michael Guerin here?
