[There's a rather good-looking woman hanging around in the lobby today, Paradisians. Most of you have never seen her around before. That's because it's not a woman at all, it's Bucky, who woke up this way this morning, had the obligatory freak-out thankfully not recorded, then decided that this wasn't such a horrible thing after all. It could have been a lot worse. So she got dressed in womanly clothes, and walked down here from her room. If she had stumbled down the stairs a bit, it was because those high heels are really hard to walk in and every woman who did it now went up a notch in Bucky's estimation.

As for hanging around in the lobby, well, she's trying to see if anybody can recognize her. But first things first, she's going to ask something.]

[With that done, Bucky takes a walk around the lobby again. She's finally getting the hang of these shoes.]

((ooc: Loss start! As for what Bucky got everybody for Christmas, just in case you weren't aware, Violet got a blue hair ribbon, Dairine got lots of chocolate (which he wasn't sure was a great idea), Jo got his military hat (hopefully she didn't try to burn it because she's mad at him) and Steve got really expensive Copic sketch markers, well, the Paradisa name-change equivalent. Ideally with a note saying 'Color something for once.' ...WHY ARE ALL BUCKY'S FRIENDS GIRLS? AND STEVE?))

[Bucky is outside the castle in the courtyard, testing whether the fairies will follow him into the snow or not. They do. He really did think that was something made up for a story, sugarplum fairies. Now they're all over the Castle, making people kiss.]

Does this always happen at Christmas here? Do these lightning bugs always come around and make people kiss each other? If so, that's pretty evil. [If it wasn't for his loss, he'd be enjoying this, actually. Now all he wants is his gun to shoot these little giggling sparkling menaces down. He is not kissing anybody, thanks.]

[OOC: Open for kisses, both planned and unplanned. If you're a guy, you might get punched. If you're a girl, there will be flailing. So this should be interesting.]

[Bucky is currently sitting in the lobby in one of the couches, since the Castle has kicked him off the roof. No, really. It has. He closes his eyes for one minute, and he ends up in the lobby. He's tried to go back up a few times, but somehow he always ends up back in the lobby. Even when he tried to go to his room he ended up back in the lobby. Sometimes he has no idea how it happens. Damned magic living Castle.

He's hoping that nobody who knows he's been up on the roof walks by, because he doesn't want to explain that the Castle got fed up with him being up there. He doesn't really want to explain it to anybody, actually. He sighs, and the journal catches what he says to no one in particular.]

Sometimes I really do hate this place.

Who: Anyone!
What: Trick-or-Treating through the castle and the city, PLUS a party at the Lux.
When: Halloween!
Notes: Backtagging = Welcome. [brackets] = Welcome. Prose = Welcome. Costumes = ENCOURAGED. Sections = FORTHCOMING.




Halloween wasn't always Jo's favorite holiday. To be honest, a day of the year where all the creatures and monsters she'd been trained to hunt down and kill being a novelty item was a bit unsettling. Mostly, she blamed it on the fact that not many kids dropped into a bar during the holiday to ask for candy. After the first year in the castle for the holiday, Jo changed her mind about the whole thing. Granted, she had missed out the previous years activity where all the decorations came to life. It was possible that she was tempting fate by decorating the Lux in the theme. Maybe she wanted to get her monster massacre on.

Now it was a tradition of sorts. Caterina had gone home, but she was hoping to rope someone new into the position of child wrangler with her.

The kids were to meet at three in the afternoon in the lobby of the castle. Jo had a list of all the residents that were going to offer up candy to the kids and the businesses. Considering last year, she wanted to be better prepared. Thankfully, there were only seven floors this year and it seemed the elevators were in perfect working order.

Once they made their rounds in the castle, they'd head out (through the leaves) to the city. A few businesses had opted to join in on the festivities and Jo wasn't going to let the kids hard work on their costumes go to waste.

After the trick or treating was done, they'd head back to the Lux where the kids were welcome to trade candy amongst each other or trade it in for something else at the Lux (where Jo had plenty of candy -- unless Dean ate it all).

Of course, once it hit nine o'clock, most of the kids would've filtered out and the bar would shift its focus to something of a more grown-up event. Halloween themed drinks and different foods were available and for the most part, it was just meant to be a good time for anyone that wanted to just hang out and drink.

[So, what does Bucky do with his free money from Diwali? Go drink it, of course. He's had a long few days, what with the dying and arriving at this crazy Castle and Steve and well, it's free money.

He's currently sitting at the bar in The Lux, drinking whiskey shots and piling the empty glasses up into a little shotglass pyramid as he goes from tipsy to slightly drunk. He's also trying to attract the attention of pretty women to see if he can actually talk to them without acting like an idiot. Bucky's completely stubborn, and thinks he can find some way around his loss.

Feel free to approach and talk to him, and even buy him a drink, he'd thank you for it.]

Who: All of Paradisa! That means YOU
What: Feasts and fireworks, oh my!
When: The third day of Diwali; Friday, Oct. 28th
Where: Everywhere (though just the ballroom for the feast)
Rating: Um, not more than PG? This is a family holiday, guys, come on...

Diwali is living up to it’s name today. The lights are everywhere today both outside and in.  Stands of candles line the lobby like a temple and lanterns hang from the very ceiling. Everywhere there is light.

Today, however, you can add new smells and sounds to the list as well. Music drifts through the air into the lobby, along with the fragrant, spice filled scents of foods and sweets.

((FEAST | FIREWORKS))

[He's finally figured out that you can speak into the book to talk to people, after looking at is suspiciously for a while, and even poking it with his foot, because he doesn't trust talking books, period. Even less after HYDRA, He was sure for a while that he'd been captured by HYDRA again been dreaming. But then he remembered that he fell off the train and was probably dead. Shit. Which means that this was...]

Okay, so... this is Heaven. Really, it's not all it was cracked up to be. No fluffy clouds or female angels. Unless this is Hell... Actually, it's probably Hell. I'm not nice enough to get into Heaven. If so, whoever decorated did a really swell job. Staring at these stone walls for the rest of eternity sounds like punishment enough for whatever sins I have.

So... what are you people in for?

[ooc: Wait until Tuesday? Riiiiiight.]

[ETA: I'm going to bed. If anybody tags I'll tag them tomorrow.]

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.
