[Yue is stumbling out of the elevator on the first floor with her journal in one hand and a very bright smile upon her face. Why is she so happy? She's about to tell everyone!]

My friends! My dear, wonderful friends. [runs her hands along the page, petting the journal] Friendly friends. Today we celebrate! As Princess of the tribe, I hereby declare it Celebration Day! In honor of all of you. Every last one of you. It is very hot today!

[That big, poofy coat of hers? She's taken it off and it's now laying in the middle of the lobby in a rug-like fashion. She takes another step, and looks around the lobby.]

Where have all the koalaotters gone? It isn't like them to be late for a tribal meeting like this.

(ooc: Jun, out of the goodness of her heart, has given Yue a bottle of cactus juice. If you haven't seen that episode of Avatar, it leaves the drinker with some... strange side effects! Very much an open post, in-person or via the journals.)

I'm very curious, what exactly is "Halloween"? What world does it come from?

Questions aside, it does seem like a cheerful celebration. The decorations are... cute! [a giggle; she's from a different world but even she can tell it's meant for youngin's]

[so, Barney's totally stoked for today. twenty questions? BRING IT ON. in the meanwhile, he's .... re-cluttering his room, and singing while he does. because he's stuck in music mode until Yue asks him something.

not that the mun minds this. he'll probably move on to 80s hair bands and Bon Jovi next. or he'll take requests. either way, castle, there's a Barnacle singing over your journals!]

[over the journal there's the sound of smoke alarms going off. loudly. and pots banging around. and a lot of clanging, and muffled swearing, and then the beeping stops, and all is still]

YUE! WHATEVER WAS IN THE OVEN GOT POSSESSED BY FIRE DEMONS!!!!! AND IT TOTALLY WASN'T MY FAULT!!!

....


... Uh, what up, seventh floor peeps. You all like ramen, right? I'll just ... make a metric ton of that.

[She's been staring into the empty crib beside her bed for a while now, and a chittering Momo comes to rest solemnly upon her shoulder. She sighs and rises, walking toward the desk for her journal.]

The Avatar--Aang--has left and returns home. [but a soft smile plays upon her features, and her tone softens] But he returns to a good fate.

[a soft, slight moan, dictated]

I wonder how many more of you can sense the uneasiness. It's very strong, and it only makes me wonder what would cause the spirit of the castle to feel this way.

Does this happen often? Does it always let us know when it's unhappy?

(ooc: tag later, be back in a bit. ♥)

[Dictated]

I am... alive? But how? Spirits, if you can hear me, please answer.

This place is like nothing I have ever seen before. Ah...

[a slight gasp, and then sound of Yue picking up her journal]

This book records what I say. [page flipping] And the words of others! Please, if anyone hears me, where am I?

[Yue has taken measures to make sure there are enough blankets and pillows for everyone. After all, who knows how many girls will arrive for this sleep over?

Every girl is invited, especially her new friends Soi Fong and Chie, and even Jun! They can stay up late talking, and maybe even about the boys of the castle.]


(ooc: PINK LADIES! And any other girl who wants in on the Zuko/Yue Grease loss, feel free to join in the fun! Your character is welcome to be afflicted by the loss only when around Yue if you'd like, and after they can return to their normally scheduled program until the next song they join in. ALL GIRLS ARE WELCOME!)

[it was strange, having so many thoughts run through your mind after a visit in to the Sunshine Room. Zuko never thought people could have such introspective moments, such times of camaraderie when there was another person to spend your time with in it... and for once, he actually enjoyed himself.

it was quite a relief to not have to worry about everything that he had held safe inside of his mind, and whether or not it was the castle playing its tricks on him or not, all Zuko knew was that the person he had bonded with in that room? well, she was most certainly something. CERTAINLY THIS WAS NO LOSS OF HIS.]


(ooc. LOSS START! okay, I think the best thing to do this is in like, sections. that way, we can have threads where all the volunteers can get to like, talking with the new people they're going to meet, because threadjacking for the sake of cr is both fun and awesome. for each piece, zuko and "sandy" are going to have their sections up, so comment away and just have fun. when I know enough people are online, we can start the musical number HERE. oh and also, this isn't going to be too much of a limiting loss for your volunteered characters. if you'd like, only when they're around the characters in question will they be inclined to gossip and sing and such. please, IM me if you have any questions. let's make this a fun loss! still nervous ohgod oh yes, and thanks for playing along, guys. ilu all. :D)

[Filtered away from Azula & written; she very well can't make noise and disrupt her.]

I see that the castle likes to humble people, but I fear that it is choosing the wrong people to humble while encouraging those that need encouragement the least.

A servant in the house of the Fire Nation princess. And not working is out of the question. Misfortune seems to follow those that don't put any effort in their chores.

[The journal picks up a long, drawn out sigh.]

I suppose it could be worse, but I don't see how.

[Dictated from her place at a kitchen table, a cup of tea in her hands.]

Is Paradisa a blessing or a curse? It seems to be one or the other depending on who you speak with. More often than not I hear others complaining about it, wishing they would be sent home.

If that's so, why is it we mourn those who are returned? If Paradisa is keeping us from our destinies, why do we treat it as punishment to return to the whole from which we came? Shouldn't we be celebrating for them? After all, they no longer have to endure the pain brought upon by the castle, and they're no longer subject to its trickery.

I understand that not everyone comes from a pleasant time in their life. I myself was taken at the moment of my death. But we cannot escape our fates forever. Paradisa is temporary, delaying the natural order of life.

When we mourn the return of our friends, does that make us selfish that we wish they would remain here with us longer? To endure more losses and more hardships they might otherwise not experience?

[She takes a sip as she thinks over her own questions.]

[Yue has been fortunate enough to land herself a good husband and a well-behaved child. With her spirits high, she has set up a little picnic on the grass outside the castle, beneath the shade of a tree. It's really a picturesque sight. She told Amiboshi to meet her here, hoping he likes her little surprise.

She reaches over and moves a bit of hair from her son's face as he looks up at her. He's hungry!]


Well, I don't see the harm in you starting without us. [And she slips him a little sandwich, which he happily devours!]

[The journal picks up the sound of rustling sheets and then a somewhat startled noise as he finds out that not only is he -not- in his room, but he's sleeping next to someone.. familiar? It's official, he's embarrassed]

.. Miss Yue?
[identity profile] themoonspirit.livejournal.com
[Yue has managed to get her paws on a book in the library when she begins to feel a bit sleep. It's been a long day. Her room is still another few flights up, and, well, the library seems cozy enough.

Feel free to notice a small cub curled up on a chair in the library using a book as a pillow. Or, alternatively, don't notice it and have a seat.]
[identity profile] themoonspirit.livejournal.com
[What's that white ball of fuzz at the bottom of the stairs? Is it lost? It would certainly seem so. Or is it actually trying to climb the stairs? But that's quite a long ways, so maybe it's just sort of sitting there looking, well, fuzzy.

In any case, there's a polar bear cub in the lobby. What to do, what to do?]




(ooc: she hasn't been on a loss in a while. feel free to find her!)

[SPLASH!

SPLOSH!

SQUISH!

The journal is growing more wet by the minute, with large spots of water and perhaps a little mud as well.

SPLISH!

SPLASH!

Followed by some very feminine giggling. Someone found puddles to jump around outside.]

Nnn... Don't hog all the sheets...

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.
