[she debates a long time before making this entry, trying to find the best way to word this properly. It wasn't that she didn't want to find out who knew her before, and what connections she had, if any, but she didn't want to presume that she had them, or make it sound like she wanted to find them for the wrong reasons.

But there's a part of her that has to know -- NEEDS to know -- and she knows she'll feel better once she's done it.]

My name is Tess Mercer. Like some of you, this isn't my first time in the castle, but I have no previous memories of my stay here. In fact, as far as I've been told, I think I was from a completely different point in my own personal timeline, but ... for now that's irrelevant.

What I'm interested in finding out if there were any ... personal acquaintances from my time here who are still present in the castle. If it's not too much trouble, I wish to speak with you.

Thank you.

Who: Katherine and Morgana, Lilah, and Tess.
Where: Locations in the City. Katherine is getting a feel for the area.
When: Saturday afternoon.




For the most part Katherine was very good at keeping her presence a secret. She spent countless years hiding from people who would have been interested in finding her, either for their own personal needs or to kill her. The drawback to the castle was that it seemed everyone knew too much about everyone else. It didn't bode well for Katherine and when Alaric just vanished, she assumed that things would just get more complicated for her. Not having a roommate who was easy to compel meant she had to make other arrangements for her needs.

Plus, Stefan seemed to think he could sort out whatever nefarious plan she was in the midst of. It was really irritating that he automatically assumed she was up to something when she had only started to get her feet wet with the city and its surroundings. She'd sort something out eventually, but for now she was just relieved to be in a place where Klaus couldn't find her.

The city was nice. It reminded her of a simpler time, but it also reminded her of the fact that she is very glad to have survived through all of this to enjoy the things that the current time has to offer her.

For the moment, Katherine was just wandering the city, stopping in the various stores and trying to see what exactly was of any interest, if any, to her and what she could do with it.

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.

[at first, there's silence.

The silence is then followed by gasps and sobs as Tess is forced into a sitting position like there's been a shock of adrenaline to her system. It takes a moment for her to catch her breath, and get herself oriented again, and when she does -- this isn't Metropolis Gen. In fact, this isn't even close]


What the hell?

[if you didn't know better, you might even say that there was a twinge of fear in her voice, but she'd never admit to it if she knew anyone was listening]

Is anyone there?

[a beat]

Chloe?

[it takes her a minute to get her legs under her, but she does, slowly and cautiously making her way to the door. She pulls it open, sees her name on the door, and slams it shut again.]

I repeat. What the hell.

Oliver Queen )

[She's alternating between sitting on the edge of the ship, for a better surface to lay her journal and do some reading, and writing down anything relevant to the topic of her private filter, and trying to do something more immediately useful. Such as checking out some of the damage of the ship, and if she'd be any use in repairing it]

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.

[FLASH!

Walking through the lobby, anyone might have been forgiven for thinking it had just been struck by lightning along with that blinding sudden flare of light.

FLASH!

However, they would be mistaken on second glance... The furniture of the lobby has all been pushed back to the walls and high-end photography equipment has been set up. A camera on a timer is taking pictures of a certain Host King in a variety of costumes and poses, even including this lovely dress and make-up attire as seen in his icon.

FLASH! FLASH!]


Back in Ouran there were many treats for the eyes and hearts of the princesses, but none more popular or wonderful than the 'I love-love Tamaki' series of albums. How can there not have been a re-printing here yet? How can this travesty have occurred?

When a man is gifted with such looks as I have, it is a crime not to share them in every possible way...

[She's definitely allowed herself some time to grieve and rage at the castle, locking herself in her room to accomplish this privately, before she pieced back together her composure and rejoined the public. It wasn't exactly a rational response, she knew. That little boy wasn't really hers, wasn't anything more than a magic induced trick, an illusion. She had only herself to blame for getting attached, but if anything, something good came out of it. She had even more determination than before to turn the castle on it's head.

For now, she's sitting on a bench in the gardens, watching people walk by and examining the scenery. She's not looking for anything in particular, but you never know when you'll stumble across something interesting

Not exactly what I had in mind for my first day as a member of the team.

And if this is some kind of test? I've had my fill of paradise islands, and you should have thought a little harder about your offer if you weren't going to trust me. [A pause] But I must say, I'm impressed with the tech, looks and feels like a book, but acts as a transcriber? You didn't even try to hide it.

But boys? I don't really want to play. So get me out of here.

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.
