[Fenris is not impressed by his first experience of Earth. There are carts that move around without horses, it's noisy and bright and MODERN. Being made human, well, that's more an annoyance than anything. Unlike Merrill, he has no deep-seated pride in being an elf. Besides, the endless ache of the lyrium is gone. For the time.

Still, he wouldn't be Fenris if he wasn't perpetually annoyed at something

There is a country in my world called Oralis. This...Paris reminds me of that place. Full of people who are more interested in fashion and social ladders, gossip and fine food than the real problems in the world. This is a place of ignorant indulgence, and I refuse to play into the game Paradisa is currently playing.

[Then, after a considerable pause, because having them is still a hard concept to grasp;]

I don't know if it's just me, but I really miss the insta-babelfish thing that the castle always did. No matter what world you were from, we all somehow understood each other. It was really cool!

But not here. The only phrase I know in French is "Parlay voo Francay?"

[Faye was made for this city. Made for it. And she is everywhere. She might not even sleep anymore-- who would waste time with sleeping when there's an entire incredible city right outside the window that is still awake?

Today, she's up and down the avenues of stores, dressed impeccably, shopping bags slung over her shoulder.

Where did she get the money to do all this shopping you might ask? That is a
very good question.]

I hope all you people who like to set up things to do in town are paying attention, here. This is what we should be modeling our shops and things like. We could really class that place up if we tried, you know?

((ooc: open over the journal or in person if you want kisses! also open to the Mosby home for anyone who wants to catch her hauling all this expensive crap home. ...also, sorry about your credit cards, Ted. :\ ))

[yep, life is good. he pretty much conquered the kissing thing. not in quantity - Crowley you slick bastard - but in practice, being a good 300% less emo about it than last year. he didn't die this year, no one decided they hated him, he had a pretty good string of one-night stands, Del came back... and even if he can't remember him, his best friend showed up. with that in mind, he takes a deep breath of the Paris air, relishing the breeze ruffling his suit, and cracks his journal]

You guys should see the view from up here. It's legendary! … You don't know what you're missing. It's like---

[and then there are some hurried, angry shouts in French]

Oops. That'd be security. Time to go!

[with that, he tucks his journal into the straps of his parachute ... and dives off the top of the goddamned Eiffel Tower]

AAAAAAAAAH--

[for a split second, as his stomach tries to relocate to his throat, he thinks this was a bad idea - and then the chute opens, and he's left sailing down over freaking PARIS]

THIS IS AWESOME!!!

[Adachi's been doing a lot of thinking this whole month, but especially since the world change happened and he found himself in 2011 again. Now that this particular date has rolled around though... well for once he feels like writing something personal]

ExpandPrivate )


[now with all that out of the way...]

[Filtered Away from any canonmates who would have not nice things to say about this - dictated]

Hey everyone! Detective Adachi here! Haha, wow I actually get to say that again! I didn't think I ever would! [his tone sounds a lot more cheerful and childlike than usual]

Anyway, I got my old job as a police detective back. So if you need the police for anything just let me know, okay? For any fellow resident, I'm on the case! [laughs a bit to himself oh god he's having too much fun with this HE ALWAYS WANTED TO SAY THAT] For some reason I'm not having any trouble understanding French so don't worry, I got your back.

These city vacations are a lot more tolerable when it's the holidays and school ends.

It's even better to be in a city with some class.

[You can hear the noise of a pencil scribbling away over paper. It sort of comes and goes during his message depending on his inspiration.]

I don't know about the rest of you but, I always wanted to go overseas. This isn't quite the way I'd imagined it happening. [He thought he'd be fighting in a war.]

I'm okay with it even if the translator the castle has isn't working here. Maybe I'll learn French. [He sounds pretty enthusiastic about the idea.]  How about the rest of you? You excited to be here? I know it was kind of a shock at first but, I know I wouldn't mind hanging around a little longer. It'd be nice to see how France does Christmas.

[For around the university campus you will find one skinny guy from the 1940s sketching away all by himself.]

[Ever since her arrival in 'Paris', Vivian has become a very busy woman, running her own business. It's not quite the same as the one she had back home but it didn't stop Vivian from buckling down and making it work. Being a successful businesswoman does have some perks: a chauffeur, a nice penthouse with a lovely view and VIP access to a lot of places in the city.

The downside being is that Vivian hasn't had much time to catch up with anyone she knows and the time she does have to herself, is mostly spent on business plans for the next day.

Needless to say, Vivian thinks she deserves an afternoon off which was why she was leaving her office and going out for the day.

The business could manage without her for a few hours.

[BACKDATED to this afternoon. Somewhere in Paris, Deadpool is sitting on bench, a cell phone pressed to his ear with a bored look on his face. And... Good god is he wearing a suit? He is! A business suit and a tie and everything topped off with a snazzy hat because his masks didn't make the transfer over. Today he's looking a bit run down though because without his healing factor sometimes he forgets he needs to actually sleep now. His journals is open next to him, a briefcase sitting on top of it.

But back to the phone, he's talking to someone in fluent if somewhat accented French.The following French is translated for everyone's convenience]


{Why do I need to apologize? I don't apologize especially not to some snooty French jerk- Of course I know you're French too. How could I not know you're French? What? Why would I care if you take it to my 'superiors'? And did you know saying it like that makes you sound like you're tattling on me to a teacher?

Uh huh. Uh huh. Uh huh... Yeah, not caring. If your buddy had just agreed with me this wouldn't have happened and I'm done done arguing with Frenchies today. So, hey, when you're whining to the higher ups could you tell them I'm not coming in for a while? Thanks!]


[And with that Deadpool ends the call, turns the phone off, and throws it behind him. Did that hit someone? Oh well he's Deadpool he don't care]

So journal people... Anyone know where a guy can get tacos in Paris?


((Open everywhere - Deadpool is the worst Ambassador ever))

French food is stupid. What kind of person would want an egg on their sandwich?

[Nico is grouchy. As a thirteen-year-old kid with no French language skills and barely any money on his person, he hasn't been able to get a decent meal in a few days - "decent" hear meaning, "consisting of more than sugar and bread" - and on top of that, he's been stuck having to share a hotel room with several girls, so he's exhausted from trying to get a good night's sleep while curled up in an arm chair. So right now he's just taking a long, gloomy walk, wondering how on Earth the other residents are enjoying this place so much.]

At least they still have caffeine over here.

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.
