[So, Gino is just six hours shy of having been unconscious for three days. By this time, Gino stirs slightly in his bed in the clinic. He slowly opens his eyes, groggily glancing around before he suddenly wakes up completely and quickly sits up. He looks down at himself and pats his chest, then just stares in confusion. There were no physical burn marks on him, and he wasn't in any pain at all, the only signs of what happened with Yukiko was his burned and charred uniform. That poor uniform had no luck it seemed.

He's pretty confused, and he glances around. And whatever sound he made was caught by the conveniently nearby and open journal.]


W-Wait, what happened?

[Curiosity has driven this Tamaranaen warrior into the library and after the initial cursory inspection of the available texts--an apparently near endless supply--Kory can be found in the animal section, looking through the large encyclopedic-grade texts on the Big Cats native to Earth.

She actually seems pretty intent on her reading, sitting crossed-legged on the floor, a small pile of equally large books around her. Some are open to particular pages, other yet to be read.


OOC: Come bug? She doesn't bite! Well, very hard. ♥]

[There's an alien in your lobby, Paradisa. He looks a little like he's on fire and is sitting on a couch, a lantern in one hand and the journal opened in the other. Next to him there's a blanket he's fashioned into a sack that's full of things he's taken while on his journey from his room to the lobby. He already kinda forgotten to be mad about being here and his ring not working right. There's too many new shiny things!!

Anyone reading their journal will now notice the page is covered in drool. Because Larfleeze is testing it to see if it's food. And when he's done noming on it and finially notices that there are WORDS on it]



What does this say? I can't read. I hear things, but all I see are words.


I like it. It's mine.

[Witches, or anybody else who knows magic]

I have... a page of a magical tome.

Is it possible for somebody to look at it and tell me more about it?




[Kid is in his natural habitat, a recently reorganized and perfectly symmetrical lobby.... because that's what he does

he's got a single page in front of him on a table- it radiates a huge amount of magical power, for those who can sense that sort of thing

and around that are several large, vaguely ancient looking tomes; Kid's reading through those, trying to find more information on the Book of Eibon

obviously he needs to be bothered]

Carnivorous plants are plants which derive some or most of their nutrients from trapping and consuming other lifeforms. True carnivory is thought to have evolved independently six times in five different orders of flowering plants, and these are now represented by more than a dozen genera (including about 630 species that attract and trap prey, produce digestive enzymes, and absorb the resulting available nutrients). These traps may be active or passive, depending on whether movement aids the capture of prey.

For example; sundews are active flypaper traps whose leaves undergo rapid acid growth, which is an expansion of individual cells as opposed to cell division. The rapid acid growth allows the sundew tentacles to bend, aiding in the retention and digestion of prey - aiding in sucking the poor shitheads dry by expanding to better host their arrival, but ultimately trapping them with nowhere to escape to.

[ the above is written down in neat, cursive print. in her room, minatsuki's taking notes - just piecing some shit together, is all and i guess she could be writing this on her bed while in her udnerwear since you freaks in chat keep insisting on ass and titties, jaysus. the following, however, is dictated: ]

Th-this castle. It's amazing~.

[It's kind of hard to tell when this loss ends. After being holed up in his room or the library for so long these past two weeks, he's just had enough of it, just needing to be SOCIAL. Unbeknownst to him, though, anyone he locks eyes with will probably regret it as much as he will.

But for now, he's just in the lobby, flicking through his journal and thinking about what he should filter to Maya after...what happened. This is important, so he shouldn't just blurt something out, but...]


Ugh. I've had some bad holidays before, but this takes the cake. [taptap] Though I've been thinking. Would anyone be interested in starting up an informal school, or helping out in a law office? I'd like to do something more than cook and bartend while I'm here.



(ooc: Haha, I love how my losses last two weeks just because I'm too lazy to post quicker. Anyway, this is the final event! Upon seeing/speaking to you, Apollo will immediately say a deep secret of yours like this. I'm not familiar with every canon ever, so I'd appreciate being given something for him to say! Anyone is welcome in though, with the open/journal shenans continuing on. ♥

TL;DR - Apollo tells your deepest secrets, can lie again, gets broken nose.

PS he is totally wearing the suit in that icon, BECAUSE WHY NOT.)

This seemed to work well last time, figured I'd give it another shot on a Saturday morning.

Would you rather...

Have fingers that could staple... [pause for dramatic effect]

or saliva with naturally adhesive qualities?


I've got others too, mean, if you'd like to make some more inane choices.

[It's getting late into the afternoon yet Caterina is still fast asleep under a mountain of blankets much unlike herself. She's clutching onto her journal in her sleep; half open so anyone can hear the soft sound of her breathing and shifting underneath the blankets.]


[ooc; Caterina's first loss will be a return to childhood. She's twelve so she won't be knowing anyone. Feel free to say something to her or castmates can peek under the covers to see her all cute and tiny.]

Hey, that movie room's open on Saturdays, right? ... Anyone else feel like seein' if we can get it to play somethin' decent? I'll be in the gym, if anyone's interested.

[and in the gym she is, indeed, wearing the dust off one of the poor neglected elliptical machines, with a book propped up on the control station in front of her. normally, she'd have earphones in, too, but after an invitation like that, she doesn't want to look rude or unapproachable!]

[so Gold is playing billiards somewhere in town. He wins, but obviously there's going to be some arguments]

I didn't cheat. You just can't play the game right!

Why you little--!

[the guy he was playing against attempts to swing at him, but Gold's too fast... and has Ataro to help him]

[He was a machine again, no longer trapped in the organic body of a human. He had, of course, immediately gone to see his Duchess...

That she had been affected by the castle was undeniable, but there was a loss and then there was the hideous truth of what had just occured.

He was no longer her machine.

No longer...

He had returned to the room the castle had granted him when he first arrived, taking a seat against the wall to keep this proceedure as tidy as possible, and accessed his internal systems.

There could be only one course of action if he was no longer the Duchess Milan's Gunmetal Hound.

The journal would record several mechanical whirrs, and then Tres' emotionless voice.]

As much as the wet weather reminds me of home, I cannot help but anticipate the upcoming spring!

Chiiime~!

Tell me, those who have been here for such weather, is it as showy as I'd like to believe?

[ gambit's in the kitchen, scarfing a sandwich down and shuffling his cards. yes. yes he's bored and getting a bit stir-crazy ]

Well. Wish dis place woulda had some kinda Mardi Gras celebration, non? Castle full of interesting creatures and beautiful women from all over the place, it woulda been magnifique. In my humble opinion.

Too late now. Already well into Lent and dat's no fun.

Sup dudes? I'm bored and lookin' for somethin' to do. I heard there's a game room in this place so I'm gonna head down there now if anyone's interested in challenging me to a game!

[The problems with helpful ghosts in your library is that when you go away to eat dinner, if you happen to leave any books you were reading at a table by the time you come back they will be put back...very high up on the shelf with no ladders. So if you come near the demonology section of the library, you may find Allen attempting to climb one of the taller bookshelves as he tries to get to the book he wants]

Stupid castle...you're really pushing it this week.

Good boy. Guess we should lay off on the junk food for a while, yeah?

Arf!

Has anyone seen Dr. Lawrence Kutner?

I haven't seen him since before that thing with the Joker, and maybe I missed something in the journals, but he never responded to my filtered entry to him. His name is still on the door, I just - I'm worried.


[ooc: Kutner was one of the fatalities, and I wasn't sure if anyone had ICly figured it out yet]

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.
