[You might THINK you hear nothing at first. But there it is. The sounds of effort. Verbal sounds, that is. Like someone trying to get up in the morning. Or at all. Eventually, it stops. And there's just some heavy huffing and breathing]

There are not enough curse words in the English language to properly convey how...Oh hey! There isn't a right descriptive term out there either. It's too bad that I'm not a dictionary, cause then I COULD FUCKING CHECK!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! [Still nothing]

...I swear to god, Castle Wonderfuck, I am going to burn you to the ground and piss on the ruins. Do you know who the hell I am? I'm the man...well...talking book...that's gonna BURN YOUR HOUSE...castle...DOWN!

[There's a shushing in the background...and it works for a moment.]

Okay, which one of you fuckers just shushed me? No seriously, front and center. I'm gonna throw the book at you.

...it's just not the same without being able to pull shades. Truly, this is what Hell is. The only thing missing is Rebecca Black.

[ooc: Talking Book Loss is go. Action/journal (he's in the library right now), so feel free to interact with however you'd want. And yes, he looks EXACTLY like he does in the icon, shades and all.

Just to clarify, in the Library, he's beside his open journal. Thus why this is being recorded as well as an action post. Herp a derp

There's still one more slot open for a volunteer to get stuck with this guy.]

So, funny story.

Bacon plus Toaster equals fire.

Fire toaster plus more bacon plus microwave equals larger fire.

Flamegeddon plus oven equals burnt hands, more fire, and pissed off ghosts.

...I was trying to put the oven in the large freezer at that point, but nope! Couldn't do it. Way to stand in the way of science, you scientifically disproved specters of fuck. And seriously what kind of castle doesn't have a toaster that can make bacon?

Tell you what, I'm gonna make one. This is a call to all those who are passionate about science, technology, and bacon! We're gonna make a bacon toaster!

After I go to the clinic and get my hands looked at. They've stopped hurting, and as far as I can tell, that's the worst sign. On the plus side, they sorta smell like bacon right now. On the down side, gotta stay away from dogs for the time being.

Fuck my life.

You know, journal and people who may or may not be listening to said journal...it's days like these that I realize something. A special kind of something. A something so spectacularly special, it may, in fact, out special the Special Olympics.

...Wow, now THAT was tasteless. I'm gonna write the one down for future reference!

[And true to his word, it is now immortalized upon the page in drunken chicken scratch writing.]

Okay, that was awesome.

Where was I again? Aw fuck.

[There's some creaking as he leans over proper to read the journal, suggesting he just wrote that chicken scratch without...actually looking]

Ah, right!

Okay, so that special thing? Is that I?

Fucking LOVE!

Owning my own bar.

Seriously, the only way it could be even slightly better is if there were a pair of flaming tits on every table. And let me tell you, I was trying for that from day one! Yup, even the me before the me that was before me! I'm sure he was, it's what I'd do. And unless there's some crazy parallel universe shit going on, that makes him me and I him.

Okay, actually, that's giving me a headache now.

The point is? I love owning a bar. And you should love that I own a bar. And also come work for me too. In fact...first five people to sign on to work for me? They can get one friend an infinite bar tab! That's right, free drinks forever!

...Okay, when I'm sober, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna kick my ass for offering that. Heh. Did I mention I love owning a bar yet?

I need your attention. I have something incredibly important to say. What I will say here may, in fact, change the way you live your lives. This is so big, I've put off drinking until now just so I do not flub this bitch.

Brace yourselves.

Take a moment. Sit down. Breathe.

[OOC: This is a CastleNet post, meaning you'll only see it on video and on the computer. For an idea of what this post SHOULD look like, watch this. Warning, it's um...not for the faint of heart... /OOC]

[When the video comes on, there's Travis. He's in the kitchen, shades on, jacket discared somewhere else. If kitchen appliances had emotions, they'd be trembling with fear right now]


This castle's got an online network, and what's there to see? Not a GOD! DAMN! THING! Living in a castle full of goddamn pussies. Well no more. We're bout to change the game. You got that, bitches? Welcome to the next level!

MAGIC COOKING HOUR bout to blow your ****ing brains out of your ears! We're taking this bitch to the next level. We've got meats, we've got a deep fryer, and we've got-[And he pauses to whip his hands out from behind the counter, with two huge bottles of POWERTHIRST in his hands.]-fully loaded energy explosives for our batter. Whatchu know about dangerous deep frying!?


DEEP FRIED ENERGY EXPLOSION
(Putting hearts on notice)



[The following is all narration, the scenes being described are what is recorded. All the while, there is epic music playing in the background. Oh yes, there is indeed.]

Making our batter, using up more Powerthirst then you knew existed. May have contained Anna Kournikova before, now it contains pure smart!

We cut up our steaks, season em with the tears of the Baby Jesus. Then, we wrap that in bacon strips. Deep fry it, fried bacon steaks. Takin it to the streets!

Chicken, cut it into strips, wrap them around cheese sticks! Bread em in crushed up Old Dutch Kettle Jalapeño chips. Fry em, custom made cheesy chicken fingers!

Oh, we ain't done yet, playa. We make meat glue out of bacon and pork sausage. Epic pancake bottom drop! Then bacon, then more bacon, follow it up with some a meat, balls! Pro meat glue maneuver around the sides, all the way. Pancake top! Seal that bitch. Hit the fryer, Powerthirst pancake surprise!

Steak! Meat glue. Decorate with bacon. All around a tin can? The holy grail of the kitchen, Super Meat Cup is go.

We ain't done yet! One pound of hamburger, insert some pork, grill, batter up, deep fry! Put it in a bun, top it with bacon, drench with custom made Powerthirst BBQ sauce? This burger is the one true king.

[The narration stops, and there's Travis standing in the dining room. The music has stopped, and he has his jacket back on.]

You see this, CastleNet? We're doing this **** for real. Bacon wrapped steaks, deep fried in custom made Powerthirst batter! Custom made chicken fingers, cheesy to the max! Pancake surprise! King of the Burgers! And last but not least, the almighty cup! [He cracks another Powerthirst open, and pours it into the cup.]

And now, I'm gonna eat it. A meal fit for a king, a ****ing king! [Throws the can away, and then points at the camera] Am I right, haters?

[Oh. And we're back to the epic music, as we get an eating montage of Travis effectively giving Vegans nam flashbacks. There's no table manners here, and the mess that winds up happening is well...magic. When he finishes, it's all gone, and he's leaning back with his feet kicked up on the table, finishing his meat goblet drink.]

Next month? We eat a barn.

[ooc: While the post is video only on CastleNet, Travis has his journal and will respond through it. So come one, come all.]
[identity profile] chrgin-my-sword.livejournal.com
Looks like the shit has finally passed. Some of us are probably pretty fucked up, others are looking like they need an excuse. So I figure...I'm gonna do what this asshole did when I was here way back when. So...

[clears throat thoroughly]

HEY! RESIDENTS OF CAIR PARADISA! YOU BOOK OWNERS AND THE NEARBY DUMBFUCKS THAT FORGOT THEM! LISTEN UP!

Now that we've sent the fucker packing all the way back to 4chan, courtesy of you sweet bastards kicking the real ass around here, it's time you get your honor and celebration. It's also time we give those of us less fortunate the chance to get picked back up, embraced, and drunk off their lightweight asses.

I'm talking the works. Free drinks of every variety, all of the snacks, all of them, dancing, karaoke, a bucking bronco. If it belongs in a party, it's sitting in the Deathmatch, waiting for you to come down and own that bitch. And the best part about it?

IT AIN'T ENDING UNTIL MIDNIGHT TOMORROW! THAT'S RIGHT, WE'RE DOING THIS BITCH. WE'RE MAKING THIS HAPPEN. WE'RE HAVING A...

WE FUCKED THE FUCKER PARTY!


DeathMatch. Starting right freaking now. Everyone on floor 2? I strongly suggest either coming in, or finding temporary lodgings elsewhere. Cause right now, this floor belongs to us.



[When you happen upon the second floor, you'll already notice the signs leading towards the bar, and the tables filled just outside it's opened doors. One one table is beer, lots of it. And on the other, for the kids, is much more appropriate drink. Like root beer and that stuff.

Once you get in, it's literally got everything you could imagine seeing in a huge celebration. Go nuts, it is a magic castle after all. You will notice that what's playing right now, however, is this, and rightfully so of course.

Just remember. Do not, under any circumstances, let Travis start singing Celine Dion]

[So, who here has ever watched one of those samurai films which winds up having the scene were all the action is shown by the shadows of the hero and his opponents. Silhouettes dancing a deadly dance and other such poetic descriptions. Well this is only sort of like that.

You may, if you look, catch sight of what is best described as two bars of rose colored light dancing about wildly. The sword masters or practiced among you may decide to leave out the word "wildly". There is an odd spark every now and again, sometimes a burn mark along the ground that lasts all for a few seconds, illuminating nothing. The motions are quick and a blur, leaving only small pauses to discern what is in between these bars of light.

But if you look real close, you might catch a couple things.

A pair of sunglasses reflecting the pink lights.

A red jacket that whips about on the sharper motions.

A smile almost as sharp and as vibrant as the beams of lights.

Regardless, the guy looks to be having a good time, or is at the very least quite a bit into his little display. What do you do, besides sit back with some popcorn and enjoy the show?]

[So, Travis had found all those yummy candies in his room, right? Yeah, they're all valentines and shit, but what idiot truly expects to escape Hallmark?

So what should happen when he gets down to his bar today?

MOAR CANDIES!

Now, the smart thing to do would be to call shenanigans and then book the nearest flight out of crazy town. But the only planes this place had were the crazy flying types. So Travis did one better!

Strawberry Red Food Coloring.

Now, complete with some festive drinks, Travis has whipped himself up a very good looking Valentines spread for his bar. There was only one last thing to do. And for that?]


Journal! Or rather...journal people!

Since today is the day of love, and since there's nothing people love more than alcohol, for TODAY ONLY, get your first drink free! It doesn't even have to be alcoholic, but bonus points if it is!

Also, we're serving free Deathmatch Valentines Candies. Red like the hearts of that darling thing you're trying to win over, and other seriously fucking sappy shit like that. So get your asses down here and have some Valentines Cheer.

The Deathmatch and it's handsome staff are not legally responsible for any alcohol and/or candy related deaths that occur on the premises.

[Perfect.]

[ooc: SO OPEN. Come bask in the hideousness. Also, journal, but that's not as fun see. For the candies? They're completely red and thus, the messages are obscured. So feel free to randomize the candy you get, and let the terrible shenanigans happen.

Oh and suitably backdated for maximum funtimes. Bloody work schedule]
[identity profile] chrgin-my-sword.livejournal.com
[And this is Travis, opening up the journal to the sounds of a game, to be identified as Band Champion 4 Hyper Turbo Tournament Edition in Paradisa's game room.]

My name, is Travis "Crownless King" Touchdown. I'm a professional troll, master assassin, clinically awesome, and as of right now? A mother fucking epic rock star! And you are all cordially invited to having your eyes exploded with the sound of my epic epicness. And yes, getting intensely aroused by my posturing is a totally acceptable reaction.

Now then...TO ROCK!

[Oh, it's Master Exploder. And yes, he is fucking TERRIBLE at it. And YES, he is singing horribly off key. And yes, any veterans from the great Bar-tastrophe are sure to be having Nam flashbacks right about now.

But somehow he makes it to the end, and from the sounds being recorded, he finishes it off like some big named rockstar would at a major concert. By swinging the guitar controller around like a battle axe and smashing it on the ground. Whoops.]


Fuck the hell yes, that's how we get it done! Where are all my groupies at?

[ooc: Action or journal, it's all good]
[identity profile] chrgin-my-sword.livejournal.com
I gotta ask something here. Does Paradisa have a drinking game? You'd think it would, what with this loving assortment of fuck-ups, jackasses, dipshits and mental defectives we've got going on here. But hell, I haven't found it. And trust me, I've been looking. Not a single book in that library says anything. Seriously, it makes room for that Shake-a-spear hack, but nothing to do with plastering yourself in game form? What a waste!

So, here's what we're gonna do.

[There's the clear sound of someone placing two full bottles of something on a hard surface. And then a chuckle]

In the words of the great prophet O'Reilly...WE'RE DOING IT LIVE!

I'll make it simple. You've all been here far longer than I have...technically. So I'll get you to name up some rules. And let me tell you, if we don't kill someone by proxy through alcohol poisoning with this? We're coming right back here and fixing this entire game!

And because I'd never want to be called a slacker, I will start us off. Ahem.

Okay, so...

I could sit here and talk about how I lost my journal. I could explain how I got stone cold wasted and wound up stapling it to the ceiling with my sword. I could fucking talk about the monkey bullshit I went through getting it back down. But I'm not. Consider this a noodle incident or some shit.

Instead, I wanna talk about my bar! Which is my bar again. Unfortunately, my gal Del ain't here no more, a damn shame really. She had class. And legs.

Anyways, since she's gone, it's all mine again. And now that I'm back in control, I'm doing a big fucking hiring push for The DeathMatch.

So if you wanna get in on the best place in town...err...castle, lemme know. I need me tenders and bouncers, and if you can do both, well you're even better. Act now, cause I ain't looking for too many people...at least I don't think so.

Who's currently working for me right now again?

Is this thing on...[He taps the book a few times...despite the fact that he was using it just a little while ago...] Okay, awesome.

Alright! First official entry from the Crownless King, Travis Touchdown! Welcome to the party, motherfuckers. Now!

I read through your book here...well a little bit at least, and I need to get some things sorted out. First and foremost...Delysia was it? You're the dame holding my bar...Still can't believe I have a bar. Fucking awesome...right? I remember you saying you're all good for giving it back, but I'm thinking bigger. Talk to me when you got the chance, if you can forgo the whole face punching thing. Besides, your name was in that list I got in the letter, so I figure there's gotta be something worthwhile there.

Secondly! Ahem...The journal indicates I have a giant robot here. A giant fuck robot. It's called the Glastonbury. It's big, white...big. Did I mention it was a giant robot? Anyways, just a small favor but GIMME GIMME FUCKING GIMME!

Okay. And, yeah, last but not least? That six year old that was being a bitch when I first got here?

Your face is a "Tt"!

WHAT THE FUCK?! [Oh, doesn't that sound familiar? There's a HUM! A ZOOM! A SWISH! AND A nothing?]

Okay, there was something real goddamn strange in this neighborhood just now. Someone? Place the damn call. I mean, not that I'm scared or anything. Unless they're morbidly obese, wearing clown masks, and wielding flamethrower/fire axe combos, ghosts just don't get to me anymore.

Oh hey, there's a letter here.

Oh hey, it's for me!

Wow, wake up in a lavish bedroom looking out at fantastic countryside, to a ghost fucking with my stuff...I think it's my stuff...and now I have a letter? Seriously, is Suda51 that bankrupt for video game premises now?

Ahem.

Okay, so I'm going through this book trying to get a feel for all the crazy shit I got into here, and what the fuck I'm supposed to make of all you people. It's been slow, mostly because this thing has a ton of shit in it and little to no pictures, but I've learned a few things.

Firstly, I have an exclusive hiring program where I only hired dickwads and asshats to work with me. Probably because I needed to keep my self esteem in check or something. Whatever, it seemed to work, so I ain't fucking with the status quo there.

The other was that I was something of hate!friends with a huge raging bitch. Azula or someshit. Whatever, if this was a fanfic, I'd probably ship it.

But can someone do me a favor and tell me a little more about this Luke kid I keep seeing in my entries?

[Suddenly, screaming. Of the "you should laugh" variety. And almost immediately after it begins, there is rolling around and crashing. Like someone just got thrown across the room, landed in the middle and just kept going. Something falls over and smashes in the background, and eventually the desk itself must have been hit, cause the book records a brief sessions of air whistling past before landing with a thud against the ground.

For a moment, there's nothing. Then there is some groaning. Sounds are made, sometimes just noises, and other times sounding vaguely similar to words like "what? where? fuck!" and more.

Eventually, the sound of someone either tired, injured or very drunk getting back to there feet is recorded, knocking something else over in the process. There is a very sharp crack, followed by half a dozen or so smaller ones, as he fixes SOMETHING that was bending a way it shouldn't have been.

More quiet.]


...the fuck? Is...

[He's found the book. He picks it up. He coughs to the side before flicking through a few pages in relative quiet, saved for some unintentionally heavier breathing.]

Alright, Mr. Multiple Personality Disorder Tome...

Missing! One cheap ass Motel parking lot.

It looks...like a cheap ass parking lot. There's a motel there. It's not much better.

When found, please return care of Travis Touchdown. Normally found at cheap ass motel, but that's fucking missing, now isn't it? So you can find me at...I don't even know.

Reward? The rest of the fucking ending! You ass.

Any further questions can be answered at...[Wait, he's checking his cellphone here.] 555-FUCK ALL, since this place has no goddamn service. That's what I get for picking AT&T.

[And with that, he drops the journal on the ground...and then proceeds to teeter over backwards and land with a resounding crash on the ground. You may now proceed with your day as normal]

[Well folks, he's been staying out of the picture for the better part of the last two weeks, but Travis has finally resurfaced in, of all places, the library.

He's got a stack of magazines in his hand. Wrestling magazines primarily, but there's a few others slipped in between who's titles disappeared amidst the many others. He's also got a few manga in hand too.

He's also got a bit of a "do not fuck with" demeanor about him. Which clearly means you need to do the opposite with a passion.]

[Max wanders into the kitchen, looking for something to do, and/or eat, not really anything specific, and happens to spot the can on the kitchen counter.]

Huh.

[curiosity gets the better of her and she goes to pick it up]


[The can itself is rather unremarkable, save for the label on it. "Travis Touchdown" it reads. Whether that's a food, or a brand name, or something else is left to the imagination, as that's all there to read.

It does, however, have a pull tab on the top.]


People should learn not to leave their crap out on the counter.

[cuz that makes it fair game in her mind. and again, curiosity killed the cat, because she's reaching for the pull tab to try and get it open]


[All it seems to take is for it to be opened a crack, before the can starts shaking and, of all things, music starts to play. Catchy music, the kind that sticks in your head and doesn't go away.

Or would, if it wasn't for the fact that a few seconds later, it appears the top of the can explodes out, as a dropkick spews forth from it towards the chin of whatever poor soul is opening it.]


[even Max's super reflexes are enough to get him away from this one, and she takes the kick before landing on the floor, hard.]

... THE HELL?!


[With some nice acrobatics of his own, the offending dropkicker, one Travis Touchdown, lands on his feet some feet back, catching the can in mid fall with a beam katana and cutting it in two]

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.
