jukebox selection F06 - once in a lifetime ; talking heads

[It's late, Jo's just come back to her place after pulling a long shift and she's just now noticing the plethora of cleaning products and ... movies staring Reese Witherspoon that have accumulated in her front room.]

Why do I suddenly feel like I developed some weird form of OCD in my sleep?

[Muttered to herself:] Who needs this much bleach?

So. Winter holidays. I'm guessing 'Snoggletog' isn't ringing any bells for anyone?

○ 013 Transmission

[helljumped.livejournal.com]

[Originally, Rookie had planned on spending the morning outside today to enjoy the fresh air, but decided against it when recalling the piles of leaves that were still littering the castle's grounds. Having no real interest in wasting the duration of his afternoon with plucking foliage out of his armor - as that usually tended to be how his evenings were spent once he returned indoors - the ODST could instead be found sprawled out in a nice little corner of Paradisa's lobby with the journal purposely propped open over his helmet.

Luckily for those listening, however, it wasn't snoring that was being transmitted over the pages today.]

( Filtered to those in the UNSC - except the Meta. )

[Once that was said and done, Rookie gave a soft sigh before moving on to the next two filters. Since he may as well cover all his bases while he was doing the whole journal thing.]

[Hesam has struggled to get himself back into working in the clinic again after his attack, so he has taken to hiding out in his room. Realizing he can't live there forever and not willing to talk to people about his issues, he figures he's going to need more than just having a gun with him all the time. He grabs out the journal and scribbles the following down]

Does anyone do self-defense classes?

This had better be wonderful, Morgana, because this is the last thing I would like to be doing.

[He's lounging on Morgana's bed, waiting for her to finish getting ready, idly picking at the loose threads on her bedspread and occasionally batting her kitten's paws with his index finger] It was the worst date of birth I'd ever had, it has beaten the year I was in a coma.

[So the fact that you're making him celebrate it belatedly is something he is severely unimpressed with. Seriously, you better be wowing him, best gift, best food, best conversation or your Christmas gifts are going to be coal :|]

[Bringing this subject up over the journals is more than uncomfortable for her, but after that small incident with Jet she can't really put it off any longer.]

What's the consensus here on demons? Does everyone just tolerate them?

Where I'm from they're a danger to humans, so they're killed or exorcised. If things are different here I guess it'd be good to know before any trouble starts.

[Xena has found her way to the roof and is currently just sitting up there, looking out at the land beyond the castle, rather enjoying the wind whipping through her hair. She has the journal open and idly dictates into it in that half thoughtful, half bored tone of hers.]

Has anybody bothered mapping out this place? And I mean in detail. Some of you guys have been here for years, right? Enough little adventures like that last one and you could know the land around here pretty well.

[The voice over the journals sounds mildly embarrassed.] Well shit. I guess I kinda got carried away.

So, uh, anybody want a doll? I got all kinds hangin' out in here now. I probably shoulda given 'em away sooner but--

[A low chuckle] --I kept on thinkin' to myself, "Just finish up one more," and now I've got a whole bunch. Sheep and kittens and puppies and a horse or two. And other things.

And if I don't got what you're looking for, just give me a good description and I can make whatever!

41. Scarves and Reality TV

[madetothwart.livejournal.com]

[The weather was Quite Nippy. Which, in Aziraphale's world, meant that it was time for a scarf and not quite yet time for gloves. So he was out and about wearing a fetching little tartan number in pure angora wool.

As it happens, he is very fond of this scarf, and every few minutes he takes the time to pat a hand over it in a self-satisfied fashion. What could be nicer than a brisk walk by the duck pond, taking the time to feed the birds happily?

Why, heading to the cinema in the castle to watch an old Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers film, of course. Today on the billing was supposed to be Top Hat... However, when he settled into the seats and the lights had dimmed, disturbingly be-bop music played loudly.

Over the journals, there is the sound of a soothing voice-over and then a horrified angel.]

--Day 39 in the Big Brother House, and Hannah has discovered someone has eaten all the cheese. She is--

OH NO!

Equius [♐] : E%patiate upon the definition of Fine Art

[equestrian-envy.livejournal.com]

[Written.]

D --> I am beginning to thoroughly dislike the e%cessive lack of fine art as far as the decor in this castle is concerned
D --> I doubt I am in no way solitary in this opinion, despite the ever e%panding number of pedantic derelicts I unfortunately keep %ing paths with
D --> Though that does cause a particular inquiry to come to mind
D --> How would any of you define fine art and do you have any e%amples that can be 100ked upon or discussed

Giant Squids

[Percy is doing his usual thing of hanging with his jellyfish Pokemon buddy. Percy has just finished telling the Tentacool about the expedition and the journal picks up a lot of noise from Alcaeus-- not that it will make sense to anybody]

Hey, um... castle people? Aside from my friend in the lake here, has anybody ever seen a giant squid around the castle before? Like um, maybe in the pool or something?

Cool. Tentacool!

I have to ask, okay?! [yes he is talking to the jellyfish]

How does everyone plan on celebrating Christmas here? Has the castle ever had a, uh--a normal one?

Last year--the only one I've spent here--it was mental. Literally. Everyone had these really... vivid dreams, and I think we could, you know, dream-hop or something. Visit other peoples' dreams. And then--[sigh]--the castle turned into a Jane Austen novel or something, and it all ended when everyone turned into these tiny toy versions of ourselves inside a dollhouse or something, and we all got chased out by giant rats. I think. I just remember a lot of running.

Is something nice and normal and, well... normal too much to ask for? Just a plain regular Christmas?

[Rory is currently in the library looking at picture books, trying to get ideas for Christmas decorations and tree trimmings for his and Amy's room to wish for. A half-forgotten mug of hot coca is sitting on a nearby table. Come join him!]

Does anyone else in the castle celebrate Chanukah?

[someone's excited for Christmas. Lilo's using her journal to doodle a poorly-doodle'd Christmas tree. With presents underneath, of course. She's also humming Christmas Carols - mostly 'Sant Clause is coming to town.' Not very well or very quietly.]

[ooc: ack. Sorry. Being grounded sucks. Typing on my iPod here. So sorry for the slow responses!]
