Who: Rose Tyler & YOU
When: December 25th
Where: Regard de la Laterne.
What: Rose is remembering things... about Christmas.



It's a bit odd to see something that's not there. To feel this odd sense like someone should be watching over you, to care about where you're headed off to. With the city streets filled with all the decorations, and the way the Santas seem to stare at her a bit more... she can't shake that odd feeling that something's missing.

It is missing, maybe it's been missing for a while, but she hasn't been really looking for anything. Now though, now -- something's definitely wrong with what her life's become. Mornings at the bakery, evenings sleeping in early. It's a routine that she's grown into, grown used to even.

The girl... the girl that's in her flat. The familiar isn't just from her having a warm smile and an infectious laugh. It's more than that and that scares her - just a bit.

Sitting against the building, her fingernails getting chewed on as she thinks it all through. The small flashes of dreams, the bits that feel like something but couldn't possibly be...

Could it?

In case anyone is still interested -- tonight we're going to be having a John Wayne movie night in the Movie Theater. The entrance is on the seventh floor, so just follow the stairs down -- it's not that hard to find.

There will be pizza, popcorn and soda for those that want it, but if you want to bring your own snacks you're more than welcome to as well. We're going to start the first film at around six, and see how many we can get in.

Everyone is welcome, and I hope to see you there.

[And the log post is up HERE for those who are interested.]

[there's some shuffle as the journal is pushed open, and after a minute of considering what to say, Sweets speaks]

I was reminded not too long ago [read: Halloween] that I promised someone [read: Mindy] a John Wayne movie marathon. I fully intend to follow through sometime this month, but I was wondering if there was anyone else who might be interested?

I know that some people don't know who John Wayne is, or ... possibly even what movies are, so it could even be considered a cultural event. You can see a piece of something from our worlds that you wouldn't normally see in yours. Granted, these are old western films, so they don't necessarily have the best track record in terms of realism -- that wasn't really what they were for -- or ... matters of race and gender, but they're still rather enjoyable in their own right.

[a beat. he's an academic, you'll have to forgive him.]

My point being, I thought it would be a good community building exercise. I'll even bring popcorn.

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.

[Here, Paradisa. Also have a Sweets. He's actually in the kitchen with the candlestick, fixing himself a quick dinner before heading back to his room. He's rummaging through the fridge, humming along to himself as he does, and emerges with all the makings for a killer sandwich.

Feel free to interrupt him, join him, or get a sandwich of your own. Have at him.]

[after determining that his patient notes were safely locked away and not harmed by the pirate invasion, Sweets is wandering around to see if there's anywhere he could be of use -- and not in a shrink capacity. Unless you really need it, in which case -- he's available. For sitting and talking.

he's also got his journal with him too, where he's flipping through the pages to try and catch up on everything that happened]


Maybe it's a sign that I've been in the castle too long when I can appreciate it's sense of adventure.

I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing.

[the journal falls open to the sound of quiet humming, as a blue crayon gets dragged across the page. As this is happening, Sweets is starting to wake up and realizes that he isn't alone. He SHOULD be alone, but he's not, and when he looks over at Angela, his eyes widen a bit.]

... Uh-oh. Uh ... Angela?

[Angela stirs next to him, head of dark curls turning to look at whoever is disturbing her beauty sleep. Blinking her eyes open, her eyes meet with Sweets' and she groans]

Oh my God--- what did we do?

[shakes his head as he pushes himself up]

I don't think we did anything? I think the castle had something to do with it.

[She sighs and pulls the sheet up with one hand, the other rubbing her face. He's got a point. Where is her hangover? Because that's the only way---]

That's crazy, Sweets---

[She glances down at the little person drawing and--]

Who... is that?

[the drawing stops as Billy looks up at them both, and gives them a wide toothy smile]

You're awake!

[Sweets just stares at him and it clicks almost instantly]

Uh-oh.

[It sort of hits Angela when she sees how much the baby looks like them and she just...]

Oh boy.

This is a bit of a tradition. I can explain.

[and with that, he's reaching forward to pick up his son and closes the journal in the process]

Congrats, you're a mom?

His sister had another one, she paid it for a lime.
She put the lime in the coconut, she drank them both up

She put the lime in the coconut, she called the doctor, woke him up,

And said, "Doctor, ain't there nothin' I can take,

He can't help it. He gives a bit of a smile. As he goes to pick it up. and then he feels a bit ... inspired]

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.
