[have some laughter coming over the journal, Paradisa]

Hey! You know this soda? It's really good! It tastes like... um...

I forgot what I was going to say.

Isn't it New Year's Eve? So we should be having fireworks, right? Let's all go watch!!

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?"

[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]

[Filtered from First Gen/their allies/other bad guys/etc]

Hey. I guess you guys figured out we all made it safely back to the castle. I heard about this fire and betrayal thing over the journal and want to help. So if there are any plans, let me know.

[Percy is still trying to piece things together. The changes to the ghosts don't help much. He stands in the hallway, trying in vain to talk with them. Turns out he forgot the journal conveniently records all conversations]

So what's going on here? Are you all Lares? Why are you away from camp? [naturally, the ghost doesn't answer him] And what's with those cows? Are they from, um... Juno? Hello?

Who: Percy Jackson and OPEN
What: waking up from his accident
When: right now! (Oct 27th)
Where: the clinic
Rating: PG maybe? Prose and actionspam accepted!

He thought he could still hear the glacier crashing down around him. Percy's eyes snapped open, gasping for breath. But his eyes didn't meet with the Alaskan wilderness. Instead, he found himself staring at some kind of infirmary. His memories were becoming complete again but he still didn't recognize this place as anywhere he'd been before.

Then it hit him: Paradisa.

How had he gotten back? And why was he in the clinic? His memories of Paradisa were working hard to fit in with his memories of home. For now he would focus on getting out of bed and seeing what he missed while he was back home.

"Hello?" he called out, wondering if anyone was already here.

[Percy lets out a yawn]

It is way too early for this. Couldn't we have least gotten a warning so we could grab some extra clothes? [because standing outside in your pajamas is not fun]

Who: Vivian Volkoff and YOU (via this post)
What: Horse riding, meeting new people.
When: 23rd September
Where: At the stables and the castle grounds
Rating: None.

Vivian was expecting a few people to turn up this afternoon at the stables so she had spent most of the morning preparing everything and getting the place ready. She was changed into her riding gear and was standing by Oklahoma Rain's stall, brushing his mane. The other horses were already taken care of before so Vivian didn't have to worry about them.

She found herself to be looking forward to this because it meant that she could get to know some more people and hopefully gain a few friends out of it. More importantly, it could also lead to Vivian finding a few riding partners because while she enjoyed taking her horse out by herself, having company was never a bad thing.

[not that Nico isn't always quiet, but since the head thing was probably freaky for some people, Percy decides to check on his cousin. He stands for a while staring at the empty room]

If anybody knew Nico di Angelo, I thought you should know he's gone from the castle. Wherever we end up going when we disappear from here, I know he'll be okay. He's a strong kid.

[Percy is sitting on the docks of Camp Half-Blood watching fireworks. The fireworks blossom into scenes from his past. In another part of the camp there's a chariot race going on, and the Hunters of Artemis are playing Capture the Flag against campers in the forest]

I'm not... really back home, am I, Annabeth?

[the blonde girl he addresses just smiles at him. Of course Percy doesn't need her to answer, since he sees his parents here and a bunch of people he knows are supposed to be dead]


[ooc: come visit Percy's headspace! I'm being vague to avoid any spoilers if anyone's trying to read through the books :D]

[this first part Percy's going to try using his horse language power over the journal. Since the language barrier seems to be down he figures he better test this now rather than later]

Hey. If there's any pony who can understand me right now, let me know.

[and now dictated in English]

This place finally feels as strange as it should be. All these weird new languages... I had no idea.

Everyone keeps saying that while you're here in Paradisa, time stops back home. But as usual, I end up being the exception of the rule. One of my cousins was here and she said I disappeared back home.

What if... the time I've been gone is the same as the time I spent here? That'd be freaky, right? And... Annabeth, my mom, Paul, Grover, Tyson... They'd all be freaking out. I wish I could at least tell them I'm okay.

[Percy is hanging out by the pond with his good friend Tentacool. The jellyfish Pokemon bobs peacefully on the surface of the water]

That girl said you needed a name. So let's see... you're a jellyfish, and you're blue, which already makes you really awesome in my book.

Tentacool.

[laughs] Exactly. Let's see... Oh! Alcaeus means "strength". We should go with that!

Cool! Tenta, tentacool! [raises a tentacle in the air like it's flexing a muscle. He and Percy share a fist/tentacle bump]

Awesome. Alcaeus it is.

Listen, guys, you know that guy from the boat shop? He was telling me that the prison where everyone is kept is underground, and we can get in during low tide in two days. He's willing to lend us some boats, too.

[Percy is sitting on the deck with his legs dangling off the side of the ship. His eyes are half-closed as he enjoys the sea. This is by far the best thing that's happened in Paradisa. He doesn't even mind being thought of as a pirate. He'll gladly talk to any shipmates who happen to pass by]

Oh, I forgot! Hey, Violet! You doing okay? I didn't see you around so I'm guessing you're on another boat or something.

Filtered to everyone who has expressed interest in the expedition and away from the First Gen's

[It's early morning, and all is relatively quiet until something unexpected breaks the calm over the journals. The merry ringing of a metal bell. A bright, chipper, probably unbearably loud noise to anyone who wished to sleep in. Didn't know you ordered a wake up call, huh? Felix made sure to ask the ghosts to open everyone's journal just for this. Aren't you glad.]

Good morning, everyone. I do hope you're all packed, because the expedition is set to begin shortly!

Please bring any personal supplies and meet down in the lobby. The sooner we leave the better.

-------------

[Felix will be waiting for the volunteers as they arrive. He's dressed pretty much how he always does, his only concessions to practicality being the tight navy blue riding pants (which match his jacket, of course) and the light cotton shirt he wears until his bright green vest, which is free of his cravat and any extraneous ruffles. For him, it's practically plain.

This man is your leader. Be afraid.

[Percy is writing in the journal to avoid the awkward of a female voice. He's really hoping this ends soon]

Why do girls wear their hair so long? It's hot, and heavy, and a pain.

I don't think I understand them any more than I did a week ago.

[it's a typical day. Percy is hanging out when he catches a reflection in the mirror]

What's that? [and then he notices his own body]

What is THAT? [the girl voice does not help matters. At all]


[the loss begins. very open]

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.
