[a groan, and rustling of pages]

This isn't right...

[was he hungover? Though he still wasn't used to the heavy parties enjoyed by the ELE members, he had nonetheless found himself waking up in strange places a couple of times. Had that been what happened here?

various distant sounds then, as he wandered around and tentatively explored his surroundings. This place was too modern to be one of Fake Thomas Jefferson's haunts, and certainly wasn't somewhere that Tie Die would have brought him, even if he had been drunk.

finally, the sound of opening of closet doors...and then a choking noise
]

....No.

[as he turned from the closet, he caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror on the other side of the room. He was dressed in a white labcoat, identical to all the others hanging--pressed just the way he liked them--in the closet. A white lab coat, just like the one he used to wear before...]

This can't be!!

...What's going on here?!


[welcome to Paradisa, Billy Buddy.]

[With the whole world change, no one was able to work on the CastleNet at all... and now that Teddy is officially cleaned up and not DYING, he's gone to make up for last time. He leaves a note for Billy, as always, and wanders off down to see about seeing how to set up those public workstations they'd been talking about.]

Ah, I'm so glad we're back here. I'm finally plant again, not a disgusting human. Ugh, what an embarrassing week. I was such a loser as a human, not something I wanted to experience again.

This place is boring, but there is plenty of room for gardening.

[So now he's gotten out of the maze, showered, slept, and gotten back in The Suit, Rude settles into his chair with a quiet sigh. It takes a moment for him to think of anything to say.]

So we're back.

[...nno, that's not good enough. Uh, something else...]

...what did so many of you have against cleaning?

It sounds like a lot of people had their rooms moved while we were gone.. But somehow, Miranda and I still have the same room. Somehow, it feels like the castle must be enjoying this [scribbled out quickly and entirely]

Even if it's the castle, I'm glad to be back. I think that ending up in the maze, even if it was a bit of a pain to find my way out, was better than trying to endure the weather outside. The temperature was bad enough without the humidity.

I hope everyone made it back safely.

[someone has found herself a comfortable seat at one end of the library and she's currently curled up with a book and a cup of tea. this book must be very intriguing, because she's leaning forward in her seat a little, blindly trying and failing to find her teacup. come bug her! journal or action spam~]

[poor little Peter, waking up in a strange room that is definitely not his. He runs out into the hall but that doesn't look familiar either. distressed kid being recorded shouting in the second floor]

Mom!!! Mom, where are you?

MOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

I hardly slept at all last night. I was too tired to actually make something to eat, but too hungry to sleep.

But before that, I was having a great night last night. I was with a beautiful girl, looking around Paradisa... sadly things got... interrupted.

Anyway, I heard Miss Reno Browne is here. Please, no one go ambushing her.

And I was thinking about that week that I was evil. Or, kind of evil. I don't know how threatening I actually was. But I felt like something needed to be said... If I was a villain, I'd be the scariest villain ever. I'm really not an idiot.

And to all the girls, and Pineapple, and that skinny little Ken kid that I kidnapped, I'm sorry and I'd love to make it up to you guys. But Draco, you're still a shit head.

Oh, and Sylar! Yeah, buddy, I know you probably don't like me. But I think you over-reacted a little. And I think you'll find that we can probably be great friends! So... yeah. Didn't want any left-over animosity from that week, you know.

Any recommendations for books in the library?

[Tosh wakes up with a throbbing headache and just generally feeling like crap, thanks to the nasty bit of flu she still has...but it's better than yellow fever. she fumbles for her glasses on the bedside table first, then the journal]

Well, at least the castle was kind enough to downgrade my illness when things changed back. How long have I been out of it? And can I sleep for another week or so?

[grumbling] I don't think I can even manage to walk to the toilet right now, and I really need a shower. Or...probably a bath. Something so that I don't smell.

((ooc: I'm heading home in about ten minutes, but I'll be back to tag later. And, you know, we can tag tomorrow and things, too. :3))

It seems like I have some new neighbours in the Satis Tower, thanks to the castle's last little game. Hello to all of you.

I think I shall be venturing out on that little excursion some time this week. I really should stop putting it off. But before that...

Well now I know that some of you actually have a work ethic in you! Here I thought the castle might have been making everyone really lazy. However now I've seen some of you put forth some actual labor, and with good results as well!

So I was wondering if anyone is looking for a job here in the City! I run a shop here, and while Bela is fantastic and Chris is great too, I just think there could be more people working here! [you know so she doesn't have to work she can just delegate!]

Is anyone interested in helping out? I sell other things! Not just magick things, but regular things, like books and little paperweights... oh! and Candles!!

Just let me know, and I'd be happy to assess your skills!

Uh - hey - thanks... To whoever... moved me to my bed. I'm pretty sure I passed out before I got to it. So yeah.

Kudos for your helpful deed.

Looks like Shelke Rui has gone home, if anyone knew her.

Oh yeah. And I know it's a bit late but if there's anyone else who believes what happened over the past couple days were triggered by trying to seek out info about this place or just wants to be pissed about what happened? Feel free to blame or talk to me about it. I am the one who started that crap and failed to make sure that mission went successfully, so leave the others alone.

If anyone is about to tell me that it's not my fault? I may consider practicing my aim for shooting at feet~

Seems Daine went home. Tch, after the last month, I need to reorganise my whole social calendar.

By the way, well done in incurring the castle's wrath, guys. No, really. I enjoyed not getting things I asked for.
Let's see. People search for forbidden knowledge, the thing/being/whatever which forbade them the knowledge in the first place gets pissy, everyone gets punished as a result. You know, that sounds eerily familiar. Where have I heard that before?

Give me a minute. I'm sure it'll come to me eventually.

[Shortly before sunset, Paradisa time, Lexington walks out of a room in Castle Wyvern and into a room of Cair Paradisa. Things are funny like that, sometimes.]

Alex? Hey, little buddy, I got that book I was going to read to you--where are you hiding?

Hey, how did the curtains get closed? [There's the whoosh of the curtains opening, and a long silence followed by some nervous laughter.]

That's a pretty good joke, guys.

...Guys? I'm still in Manhattan, right?

Come on, your dad's going to kill me if we're not here when he gets back....

[The following is scrawled in Hodgins’ messy hand]

It was the perfect weapon, when you really sat down to think about it. It did the job, and then was completely bio-degradable. Hard to find evidence that no longer exists. As he put the final touches to his work, he thought about his victim. She would probably smile at the random gift, think she has a secret admirer, throw back her hair, smell the perfumed delights in her hands. That one moment would seal her fate, the one action that would lead to her death. She won’t know that, of course. After all, no one suspects flowers.

[Pen tap, then dictated]

It’s a work in progress. He still needs a motive. Perhaps an abusive mother? That’s usually a good starting point for any serial killer, especially if he’s targeting women. Not that I’m being gender specific here, it’s just, well, you send women flowers more than you do men.

[so, let's take a trip back in time to--this morning! Sylar didn't sleep much, last night, given that he's been thinking about the whole Mystery of Reno Browne thing, so he's already awake. did the whole shower thing, and is thinking about heading down to the kitchen to see about breakfast, since he's not sure if the castle's still on strike or not. he figures he should at least see how Molly's doing in the other room first, though]

[rather than actually creep over to her room like a semi-sane person, however, he figures he can just listen in on her breathing from where he is, and--and he can't hear anything. starts towards her room, suddenly a little paranoid, only to stop short. it's not just Molly's breathing he can't hear--it's pretty much everything. oh, he's not deaf, but he can't make out her pulse or his own or anything going on out in the hallways or down in the kitchen]

[which is a little frightening, given that he just got his powers back from the castle]


What the hell. [and in his panic, he tries to make a grab for his journal--open, on the desk--telekinetically, just so he can reassure himself that he still has his powers. unfortunately, however, it doesn't come. it doesn't even budge] This ...

[is a bit too much like having the Shanti Virus again, for his tastes]

Goddamn it!

About the Archive

"Paradisa Lost" is the archive of what the journals contained between December 1st, 2006 and January 10th, 2012. On that final day, Paradisa issued new journals, so that the residents could fill them up again. While there are still residents around who have old journals, we have chosen to preserve the old journals here for muns' reference and history.

"Lost" in the title refers to both the old journals that the residents once kept, and also to our move to Dreamwidth from the original Livejournal community, where Paradisa started. It is a fresh start for muns, as well as for the characters.
