[ it's early afternoon and for once, kate is awake and about doing her thing. this is probably a strange sighting for anyone who may have taken notice of her schedule.

normally, her day would be spent sleeping in till about evening, some brief exercise and eating, then doing patrol. well, today she's in the gym and letting out some frustrations on a poor punching bag hanging from the ceiling. it looks like she's been at it a while, too. despite the upcoming holidays, she can hardly get into the spirit of it. the dealings with hush, the other bats, and then renee being brought by the castle have made her moodier than usual. it's left her feeling exposed and she hates it. she just can't catch a break. :( ]

Between Diwali and Guy Fawkes Night being celebrated by the castle, I'm starting to wonder if it'll keep up the variety and do something fancy for Chanukah or some other holiday that's generally not celebrated in Paradisa. At least the commercialization of Christmas is not as bad here.

[ pause. ]

It was around this time the turtledoves appeared, wasn't it? Think it'll skip over that "tradition" entirely this year?

Who: Vivian Volkoff and YOU
What: Vivian's having tea in the city.
When: November 25th
Where: At a coffee shop.
Rating: PG.

Tea had always been Vivian's preference to coffee. Possibly a conformation to a stereotype given that she was English, but that didn't matter to her. She had tea with her breakfast at home so why should that change when she was here? Vivian wasn't going to change her routine too much, only tweak it a little to accommodate the environment she was in.

After tending to her horse at the stables, she took a trip into the city, wanting to explore it a bit further and see what she could come across. Vivian remembered Jo telling her not so long ago about the coffee shop there so she decided to check it out for herself. Except not go for the coffee.

Soon, Vivian was seated at a booth by the window, a cup of steaming tea on the table in front of her, accompanied by a rather delicious looking blueberry muffin.

Life was good.

[ and this past week has had a... wacky turn of events to say the least. mal's confession about a certain someone has left her feeling somewhat unsure. no, she's not jealous, just mildly irked at the situation. jeez, maybe she should stop thinking about it. and hey, she sort of did by playing her guitar for a while in the music room.

now she sits in the kitchen, waiting for her fish to finish deep frying and strumming her acoustic with her journal opened in front of her. ]


The meteor shower last week, I don't think I've seen anything like that since I've been here. They're probably not very common in Paradisa, hm? Kind of takes away from the setting October has in most modern societies, with Halloween and all the slasher films that come out back home around this time. But a lot of people don't know about other festivals and holidays. For example, like how Celtic Reconstructionists honor the dead on Samhain. They make their loved one's favorite meal and a set a place for them at the dinner table. Many even leave a candle burning to guide the dead home. It's really something.

Paradisa celebrated Día de los Muertos last year, might happen again.

[ she plucks a string. ]

And I'm thinking about putting my afternoons to better use. Would anyone be interested in learning to play a guitar? I can teach both acoustic and electric.


[ ooc: journal or action, whichever. B) ]

[ kate's lounging back in her room, secretly glad to be back in a nice bed. :I and she hasn't slept much since they all got locked out! so she sounds tired when she speaks. ]

The castle gave us the boot for a renovation and some tidying up? It missed spring cleaning by a few months there. [ pause. ] Nicest thing it's done in a while, though. Unless you count the ice cream.

[ It's Tuesday, meaning entering the Four Seasons room today takes you to the Castle's magical beach. There are already a few people sitting on the sand and doing their thing. Join in or decide to play in the water. Remember, you can't swim too far off now otherwise you hit a wall. Literally. ]



[ ooc: beach shenanigans. anyone can join. tag in at your leisure. :) ]

[ She's relatively calm again, getting some of her frustrations out of the way after Tobias' departure and Charlie's unannounced return. Some of it still bugs her but she doesn't want to deal with that train of thought right now.

Instead, Kate will be focusing on getting back to her daily gym visits. It's been a while and though punching a bag isn't as satisfying as someone's face, it'll do. Dressed in sweatpants and a plain tee, she's over at one of the higher balance beams, doing a simple one handed back handspring. It's always fun to do one of those. :( Nostalgiaaaa.

Her journal is laying open to the side, so she can still listen in on whatever. But she does sit on the beam for a moment to speak up: ]


Anyone got a good horror or thriller movie to rec? I watched The Mothman Prophecies the other day but I can't say I'd rec it to anyone else.

[ Guess who sounds full of emotion for once? It's Kate surprisingly, and nope, she doesn't sound pleased. Is that an actual trace of irration in her tone? ]

Castle wasn't done, I guess. Tobias was sent back home again.

[ now with the tranquility that's settled in once again into paradisa, kate's found herself bristling for something more than your amateur purse snatcher in the city. she's been thankful for the lack of body counts since Villains Inc. was taken down, however. but... she tries not to focus on that too much.

there are times before she sets off on patrol where she sits on the castle's roof or one in the city and gazes out at everything before her. sometimes, if one were to happen by and she's not blending into the darkness, they might think she's contemplating something.

maybe she is. ]

[ Now provoked, Arthas, Riful, Legato, Hank, and Joshua have all left the manor. It sits alone, occupied now only by five hostages:

Jaina Proudmoore
Kaylee Frye
Kallen Kouzuki
Maya Fey
Asano Rin

...and their jailers, Billy & Nikola Tesla.

While their wrists and ankles remain bound sans impaling in a similar fashion to last time their location is vastly improved--they've been granted a ballroom-esque room in which to be chained on the main floor.

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.
