[Snake cracks open the journal and starts to speak with an odd amount of assertiveness]

So, you've managed to end up here? I'd feel bad if I wasn't here myself.

Anyway, this place is called Paradisa. No one knows what it is exactly, or how it came to be. All that's known is that people get brought here at random from their respective worlds. I know it sounds wierd, but that seems to be the only thing most know about this place.

What do you do here? I can't answer that. What I can do is help you get used to the place, chances are you'll be here for a while.

[Tutorial Man loss is a go!]

[Snake's sitting in the games room, completely hooked to the game he's playing. Leaning in towards the TV, even. If you look past him at the TV, you could see it's some sort of older rpg.]

Come on, come on, come ON!! He's gotta be close to dying! It's been nine turns, I've only got two party members left and no more firebird downs!! Maybe I'll finish this boss off if I get both characters to use their strongest attacks at once.

[In no way is this connected to the fact that I'm hooked to Final Fantasy VI]

[He's out in the woods running laps, occasionally stopping by a tree with a low enough branch to do some chin-ups. Plus, every five minutes of running he stops, drops to the ground and alternates between sets of 20 sit-ups and push-ups. Someone is getting quite the hard workout.]

[Open post, for your need to disturb a guy hard at work =P]

[Mumbled to himself] Huh, dinosaurs this time... I couldn't find anyone during that outing, but taking on that pack of raptors proved to be pretty fun. I only walked out with a few scratches too...

This place can't go longer than two days without changing things up, can it? It's not necessarily a bad thing, seeing as it keeps me from getting too bored. It would just be nice to sit back and relax for a bit without any interruptions.

Heh... Then again, that's probably asking for too much. Oh well, you just have to roll with the punches sometimes.

[Takes a nice long drag of his cigarette]

[After yesterday's events, Snake decided to go for a drink to calm the nerves; Life isn't so fantastic in plastic. He's sitting in the Death Match, drinking a simple beer while smoking a cigarette, keeping to himself. In between drinking he's playing around with his combat knife, spinning it around his fingers; practice makes perfect. Feel free to talk to or bug him if you'd like.]

[Have a weak thump, plastic being light and all. Followed by a groan through clenched teeth.]

What the hell is going on here? Why can't I close my mouth? ... Even better question, why can't I bend my elbows? [The jumbling of the plastic body attempting to get up is recorded]

Ugh, I must be under some sort of paralysis. [A bit more jumbling, shortly followed by a rubbery snap.]

Arrrrghhh!!! My knee!

Things seem to be normal around here again, it's a pretty nice looking place once you get past all the weird residents... It reminds me of a theme park...

[Smirks to himself]

So, what can a guy do for entertainment around here?


[filter; Pit]

Kid, I want to see you asap.

So, I've gathered a bit about this place; It seems these creatures aren't a normal occurrence here... In fact, it doesn't even usually look like this.

[He pauses to take a drag from his cigarette, followed by a calm exhale]

This being said, it seems to be impeding the lives of the locals here. No one seems like they were overly prepared for this, which I find weird. Why would some sort of creature just appear out of nowhere, and cause havoc to people?

Whatever it is, the residents seem to have a fairly good handle on this...

Here's hoping they can survive it.

[The sound of a fairly loud crash is recorded, followed by electrical sparks as Snake's stealth camouflage fails as a result of slamming into the wall of his room. Snake gets up, crouches, and immediately touches below his neck with his middle and index fingers.]

Otacon, the stealth camo failed again. We really need to fix this problem it has with high-impact... [Have a quick look around of your steel room Snake, things definitely aren't right here.]

Otacon, I don't think I'm at the test site anymore... Otacon! Do you read?! [He stands up. The cold room almost instantaneously installs a feeling of uncertainty into him, the scurrying sounds coming from the walls don't help either.]

Where is this place? [He starts to hear voices of his old comrades screaming for him to something of the tune of "Snake! Snaake!!! SNNAAAKKE!!!]

Campbell, Mei Ling, Raiden, Otacon!?!?

I've been here for around a month now, and I think I understand what this place is about.

Some residents explained that this is some sort of alternate "magical" world from our own. I'll go with that because nothing else seems to be making much more sense around here.

There's no way to leave this place so we have to put up with it. A girl named Toph told me that living here isn't as bad as it seems.

So, what do you guys do around here to get your kicks?

[ooc: Sorry for the absence guys, school's been rough lately.]

So, I've been looking around this castle - Gathering intel for the next step on my way out of here.

Seen my fair share of freaks, too many to list. I don't know what this place is about, is it some sort of bio weapons testing facility?

[Snake throws his cigarette to the ground, it burns out slowly. He then crouches and touches his neck just below his ear.]

Otacon, what is this place?... Otacon! Do you read me?

[he pushes himself against a wall, peaking around a corner looking down one of the long castle halls]


Looks like I'm going solo on this one.

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.
