[This world was so... so very strange, if only for the differences in his family and the new future he was supposed to accept as truth. It would take a long time to work through that information, to process it and deal with the tearing grief and second-hand guilt that went hand-in-hand with it.

But until then, he had a more important task - Abel. His brother had to see Cain was still the man he remembered. The genial, pleasant derp Major who could make friends with a stone... and no time like the present to begin, so perhaps it was time for a few filters.]


ExpandMiss Sforza )

Expand'Nephew' Sora )

ExpandAnyone who greeted him when he arrived )

[Filters done, he both dictated and wrote the following PSA to the whole castle.]

Attention, please!

As of this moment, Abel Nightroad has been forbidden from any sweet foods. This includes, but is not limited to:

Sweets, chocolate, cake, cream, flapjack, muffins, doughnuts, fudge, toffee, chocolate spread, frosting, marzipan, nougat, pancakes, syrup, waffles and sugar-coated cereals.

Please don't give him any of those items, and if you see him with them, you are more than welcome to confiscate them.

Thank you for your co-operation~!

Now that I am not with the missing of the people? [because Xander and Buffy both are here again and that just feels right] I keep finding myself missing things. Which shouldn't matter, really. They are things. And I've been here long enough we should have broken up with one another anyway.

[For anyone who is visiting the church today, there seems to be a small brunet child with you there today. He's sitting in one of the front piers, cross legged and happily keeping himself occupied by writing on a sheet of paper. If you look, he seems to be working on writing the alphabet as well as a matching code along with it...one that doesn't match any sort of known language. For people who might recognize the kid from earlier this week...he seems much more cleaned up than he did before. His hair cut closer to how Allen normally keeps it and his left hand covered up by a mitten. More than that he seems...cheerful, even happily singing the alphabet to himself as he works]

A B C D E F♪- [a pause] Fuck! What was it again?

[...Okay so maybe he hasn't cleaned up his act entirely, but still!]

[OOC: last two days of the loss. Open post, so feel free to come bother a slightly less rabid child]

[Spike is having an uncharacteristically broody day. Maybe it's contagious, which would make sense since he's pretty much blaming Angel for it. Every time he starts having something good, bloody Angel has to swoop in and ruin everything. All right, calling Paradisa good would be stretching things. It's bearable only on the best of days. Buffy hates him. Everyone else not liking him, he can deal with, but after the progress he made with Buffy back home, the kisses, the time spent together companionably, even the singing, it's hard having her hate him.

Of course, she may not like him, but she doesn't even remember Angel. That gives him no small amount of comfort.

But Angel doesn't remember him. Spike has all sorts of mixed feelings on that matter. Part of him thinks he should be flattered. From what he's pieced together about losses, they're never inconsequential things. As much as he hates it, Angel was important to Buffy. Was he somehow important to Angel? Spike doesn't like that he even has to think about. And he doesn't like being forgotten. It pisses him off, that Angel doesn't remember everything they've been through, all the things he's done. Angel doesn't know why Spike hates him. It's almost too convenient, something Angel would want, like he did it on purpose, though Spike knows that's unlikely.

He's upset, on edge, and really sick of being sober. So he opens his journal and speaks into it.]


Where do you get drinks around here? I know you can wish for them, but there's got to be some sort of bar around, right? It's slightly more fun than drinking alone in your room.

There's Aigis in the game room. She's standing there, watching the games light up and make noises, a slightly studious expression on her face. She's also in a school uniform, so her roboticness won't be readily apparent.

Wanna bother her?]

[exhales, she doesn't breathe, but it is very cathartic]

I know we're all kind of worried about those people that are missing, but I am positive that someone's going to fix that. I mean, if they are all out in that Dead Zone then someone'll find them. Someone always finds people. Right?

[ugh. it makes her stomach sort of twist a bit]

I was looking for a distraction though. You know, something so that I wasn't all totally stressed over things.

There was that auction that guy had? For the men? I remember that Anya girl totally ran that thing too, for the girls.

She's gone though and I think I would totally be, like, amazing at organizing that.

It's forty-eight days until Christmas, and everyone talks about how it's not even Thanksgiving - but Thanksgiving is Bor-Ring. So I think, I mean unless someone has a problem with it, I could really spice up that holiday!

That sounds fun, right?

[Sylvanas is standing on the outskirts of the City Royale, arms folded tightly across her chest as she waits for her sister to arrive for their duel. It would be a brilliant sunset, Sylvanas muses, though really, there would be so sentiment behind such an observation.

After several minutes, Sylvanas narrows her eyes as her surroundings darken, and the sky melts into cooler colors. Her fists clench as she looks around her, trying to take in her surrounding, ears perked. This was certainly not a turn of events she would have predicted.

Vereesa was late.]


ExpandVereesa )

[After another considerable amount of time, Sylvanas finds herself leaping to the trees, a great feeling of annoyance hitting her as she surveyed the land before her. There was no response, nor was there any activity to note nearby. It was far too quiet.

Seething, Sylvanas opts to inquire further.]


ExpandAlleria )

[That filter would most certainly warrant a response, she thinks. But when the answer doesn't come in quite some time, Sylvanas cannot help but feel a twinge of rage build up inside her, eyes burning red as she throws the journal against the tree, bark tearing up the now exposed pages. The edges of the page may very well be singed from dark magics threatening to singe the journal to ash.

All who care to listen can hear her growling, fuming.]


Is this some kind of joke?!

[The journal is now kicked off the branch of the tree, Sylvanas leaping down in turn and drawing her blade. The grinding of mail against metal is heard, the banshee attempting to calm herself as she dictates to the journal.]

[Filtered away from her known enemies and those who would use this information against her, you know the drill;]

...two more for the Dead Zone, I presume.

[That's dictated in such a tired tone, as if she is trying not to make a show of her rage once again. She allows her a breathless sigh, and yet another growl as she writes one last filter.]

[Jilly's been quiet since her loss, escaping the chaos of the holidays by diving into her art and her shifts at the Kat.

But she can only be quiet so long and, tonight, she's feeling in a good mood. It's more muted than it might have been on its own, tinged with worry for those who've gone missing, but she feels more like herself again, right down to the specks of paint in her hair.

Either way, as night's falling, she can be found sitting on the steps of the Fairyland Animal Shelter after having set out some food for any wandering strays, watching a group of kids playing some version of tag and just enjoying the night]


The people who are missing... I know we have people looking for them, but is there anything those of us still in the castle can do? I'd like to help, if I can.

[ so, guess who is just hanging out by her lonesome at an outpost? lana, that's who! it's ronery...and boring, but at least there's electricity, running water, and emergency supplies. she's been getting familiar with the place and trying not to be totally creeped out by the complete solitude, which is difficult shortly after being kidnapped.

also her crossbow is still with her supplies with the group she was taken from. WEAPON, HOW I MISS THEE...

deciding to curl up for a hot bath, which is very soothing on her bruises, even without the luxury of bath salts or bubbles, she opens her journal to see if any news is there. there's clark's post and...yeah. she should let everyone know she's still alive, since she didn't return to the castle with the others.

there might be the occasional sound of water splashing in the filters, and this is all dictated of course ]

[ that conversation with Joshua did get to Riful a little whether she thought much of it or not....not the maid part though. The dress part♥ Since really, it's hard to keep them in good condition when her awakened form tears them to shreds. So terribly inconvenient ):

so after making her way to town from where she was hanging out in the mountains that surround Paradisa riful will be walking through the town's shopping district to do a bit of window shopping. good clothes are hard to find when you live in the paradisan boonies ): ]



[[ ooc; OPEN....but why would you ever. she's not going to fight anyone since she's really just...there to look at clothes. and maybe grab a snack or two :9 GRAB CR WITH HER WHILE SHE'S IN A GOOD MOOD?? ]]

[the journal just had to be cracked open for this. There was no way that this moment was not going to be broadcast to the rest of the castle.

At first, there is just the usual sounds of an angsty firebender practicing in the gym. He sounds very intent on his drills, focused... until the sounds of fireblasts suddenly die off... and there is the sound of what an entire box of cereal spilling violently on the ground might sound like

Um, if anyone knew them, Apollo Justice and Trucy Wright went home. [agsd;ha weak laugh] I know Apollo wasn't here for very long this time, he's such a jerk!

[anyway, there's some silence] I didn't really think of anything else to say. Maybe I should make an announcement or something... Oh, I got it, impromptu movie party for Gilbert! I still can't believe that some people here have never used a TV... Everyone here who has never heard of a TV before should come to room 911, and we'll watch something really awesome! Maybe a classic, like Mouths. It's a movie about a giant shark... well, you'll just have to see it to find out.

[ Filtered from the First Gens. (Outsiders, People Beyond, etc.)]

By now we've all gathered that everyone disappearing is ending up in the Dead Zone. We don't know why, but until we get more clues, we have to focus on getting those people back safely.

Some of them are in areas that have no shelter and no food or water sources, so they can't just hope to walk back if it's they're too far. Some people have already been looking meet with whoever we can get in contact with, and keep an eye out and patrol for the rest. I think it'd be a good idea to get everyone who can easily move between the castle and the border checking around the perimeter of the Dead Zone on a regular basis, so that no one has to walk further than they need to.


If you end up out there with a journal:
Naturally, anyone out in the Dead Zone will know which direction the castle is, but they can't tell whether they are north, south, east, west. If we can find out where they are, people can head out directly to meet them, or know where to keep an eye out.

You can find what direction you are this way:
- find a stick around two feet long and stick it end-up in the dirt.
- mark where the end of the shadow falls.
- wait half an hour.
- mark the new point where the shadow is.

The first point is West, and the second point is East. North and South are on a perpendicular line intersecting the line between West and East. Walk around that and find out which way the castle is. If you need to head East to get back to the castle, we're going to need to go West to meet you, and so on.


If you end up out there without a journal:
Best advice I can suggest is a smoke signal. Make a big fire on the highest ground you can find, with no trees obstructing the view. Throw some fresh grass or leaves on it and it'll create a lot of smoke.

I'll be making regular patrols around the border, as are a few others, so hopefully something will get seen.

Other than that, I'm welcome to hearing other ideas.

Update: Raine is suggesting people carry around at least a day's worth of food and water on them until this is over, just in case you end up next.

Anything other than that, we don't know what's going on, at least until we find something or the girls responsible for the warning feel "charitable" enough to say more.

[That last statement is drier than the Sahara desert.]

Any ideas? Can anyone more familiar with Bernkastel, Lambdadelta and Erika explain more about them, or what they can do?

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.
