[There's a rather lazy sounding voice through the journals this evening, as a small white cat curled up on a pile of fresh laundry in the washing room -- is it your laundry? Yes, yours? Whoops.]

If anyone sees a rather ugly mongrel dog roaming the halls, you should be warned she's rabid. A complete menace to the castle as a whole, a thief of food.

And needs to be spayed.

I'm doing you all a service, so don't forget.

[ooc: Open in the laundry room, feel free for Mogget to be laying on your laundry, or over the journals.]

[ there's a slight frown on the form of one Alya Firebloom as Alexstrasza maintains her blood elven disguise. She's made several adaptations--the first being to magic herself up a fake journal of sorts with her alias' name on it. The second was to secure herself a "residence" within town.

With those two things settled and decided upon she'll begin going about her business in town: TRYING TO KEEP AN EYE ON ARTHAS and also to just...experience and learn about the town. which includes going to the shopping district: there's more people there after all ]

[yeah, someone was sick earlier, but his shounen beat out most of it and decided medicine can cover the rest

then went out and soaked the town by flying

unfortunately, the medicine didn't agree with that, and he's outside somewhere, after hurling in some bushes]


Guh, don't operate heavy machinery... more like... don't have fun flying around town. Bleeeeegh...

[uh oh is he going to do it again is he going to]

I suppose this is somewhat belated, but if no one has mentioned it, the one known as Black Bolt is no longer here. I thought perhaps he had gone on some solitary sojourn, but at this point I will say Paradisa has lost whatever interest it had in him. 

[He does not seem that upset over it, does he?]

[He closes the journal after that, tucking it back into his gi before rising from his spot outside a cafe and heading though the town, a small pack in his hand. He needed to find herbs, but winter made that hard and he would rather not have the castle make them. Tampering was to possible.

Anyone care to bump into the blind "doctor"?]

When they die, it'll take seventy days.

Fifteen for cleansing.

Forty for drying.

Fifteen for wrapping and painting.


[she pauses...] The castle won't allow for such rituals though. She might not be pleased to know that.

[Have one (1) very androgynous girl, flipping through the pages of the journal as she wanders down an elegantly arched corridor, Paradisa. She seems bothered, but not incredibly so: had she just stumbled upon some hidden wing of Ouran Academy?]

This is troublesome, to say the least.

[She drums her fingers against one of the journal pages and gives a frustrated exhale.]

Hello? I think I've gotten turned around.

I'm going to the outpost for a while. I don't know how long I'll be out there but it might not be for more than a few days.

I hope you'll all be okay. [ a pause ] Be careful with everything. I haven't heard anything about anyone getting hurt but... [ well, you know :| ]

I know I had some plans with people. Sorry for holding it off but I promise we'll get to those plans when I return! There's a lot of new people I wanted to talk to, too.

With the recent arrival of so many new people to the castle, it has become more evident that there needs to be a formal welcoming committee for each person. While I understand the tourism office has been doing some of this, there are too many people arriving for one person to keep track of.

In our time here, the odd becomes commonplace and we can forget how confusing, disorienting and even frightening arriving here can be. Being bombarded with information on wishes and losses certainly doesn't help that in some cases.

I propose a small group of people who, between them, will make sure that everyone entering the castle will be greeted by someone both knowledgeable about the way this world works and compassionate to their situation. It would also be wise when greeting, to make sure the new resident had access to all of the following:

-A floor map of the castle
-A basic map of the town
-Attention brought to these two entries of useful information.
-A basic tutoring on how to make and receive filters

Depending on how many people would be interested in such a scheme, a loose schedule can be worked out to make sure nobody is overlooked and the people involved do not become overwhelmed.

[ooc: Completely open. All self defense students/teachers are free to filter to one another in this entry to keep everything from getting too scattered. Any problems, questions, comments, just PM me or IM me. I have to run out now, but I wanted to get this up first, I'll be back in a few hours!]

[she could be putting this under a private filter, but it doesn't matter if others read]

There is a famous line in a play that reads "a rose by any other name would smell as sweet". But that isn't true at all. That's something I knew before coming here. After all, Caroline is a completely different person from Echo, and Echo is different from Eleanor Penn, and so forth and so on.

Why are we given the names we have over others? It's usually the decision of a parent. Not always, though. I do wonder why I was given my name. Not that I think he would have told me if I asked.

[quietly, as if as an afterthought] What was her name...?

[There's a really long awkward moment, where she does nothing but stare at the nameplate. She's thought of a million ways to do this, and after discussing it with Lorne, the act of not knowing was killing her more than she felt knowing exactly what she had lost would. Still, it was easier said than done, and her foot shifts a little like she's going to walk on by, before she only pushes forward to knock, loudly]

...Angel?

[Now that Spike had more or less stopped going out of his way to ambush him here, Angel had been using his original room as a space to keep up with his training. Being trapped in a magical castle that catered to his every need didn't mean he had an excuse to let himself get rusty. Besides, there was something to be said of freeing up your head every so often--whether that be by trading blows with Faith or just going through the motions by himself the way he was doing now. He hadn't been expecting anyone to join him this time around though, so when the knock sounded he had absolutely no idea what to expect. Even so, opening the door to find Buffy standing on the other side was probably the last thing he would have expected--especially given their previous exchange]

Buffy. [Aaand awkward shifting is go] Hey.


Hi...[And when in doubt? Cheerful exterior seemed to work] Can I come in? I know it's short notice, but I promise not to judge if there's dirty laundry.

[both Zelman and Rin had been kind of confused as to why Zelman hadn't turned into an adorable kitten when he decided to pet her. maybe he was immune. maybe it just didn't work.

or maybe... it was just a severely delayed reaction.

but it doesn't really matter what it was, because there's a red cat in the castle lobby, doing his very best to viciously claw apart a seat cushion. what do you do, Paradisa?]

[ in a certain green-haired swordman's room, the man is getting packed and... there's a kitty lounging on top of the bag he's packing everything into

and not moving

Zoro keeps shoving stuff in, though, not caring how much he was disturbing the cat just as much as the cat didn't care about interrupting his packing ]


Tch, can't you go bother somebody else?

[ but the cat didn't reply, even with a meow

and then... Zoro found it ]


Hey, what's this thing? A... gun?

Well, I can now safely add 'cat' to the list of things I never want to turn into again. Nothing has got ahead of 'zombie' on the list of unwanted changes yet, but I'm withholding proper judgement on that in case the castle takes it as a challenge to make my life even more damn miserable.

[Page flipping. Pausing] You know what? I'm not even going to ask what the hell is going on with you people this time. I think I'm better off not knowing.

[Everything is in place.  

Isis has Osiris' heart, and a vessel who seems tailor-made for this honor: one who lacks a heart, has semi-divine origins, and in many ways, reminds her of departed lover.

But given Jono's... unusual biology, there must be another blood sacrifice to bind the magic.  Luckily, one had come to her, and both vessel and sacrifice are now bound to tables in a high tower of the castle by glowing magical ropes.  She moves between them as they come back to consciousness slowly, finishing up her protective warding spells around the room.

She will not be interrupted this time.]

[Anya's been settling in for a while now, and she feels it's time to bring up an important issue that's been weighing on her mind. Namely, wishing.]

So, this place will give you whatever you ask for, right? All you have to do is wish for it? And everyone just does this without questioning or worrying their wishes will get misinterpreted?

Are you all entirely insane?

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.
