[ and of course, she had come back to the castle in some silly hope it was probably just her imagination or anything since being gone for a while. only time would tell if they even responded to the filter. so now uru's in the kitchen and baking cookies because this is what you do when you are feeling awkward. YOU EAT YOUR FEELINGS. ]

It feels like I've attempted baking everything I could think of since I first came here. I don't know what else I should try. But that's what the baking club is for, right? Oh -- which is always open for new members! Or taste testers. If you like baking, you should really consider it!

Ah... what's a dessert you like to eat? I don't want to get rusty.

[ ooc: journal or action whichever!! ]

Seeing as I am a bit outside my experience here... I've never had a pet before, but now I'm kind of taking care of my superior as one. Anything I should really be aware of regarding cat care? For that matter, is there a way to prevent hairballs?

I mean, it's not as bad as the dead animal remains I keep finding, but it's still getting irritating to have to deal with the mess.

[ The lobby of the Castle was the ideal place to observe people as they come and go. And because Haibara had found herself in this place abruptly it was needless to say that she was panicking.

Having no recollection as to how she had gotten here her immediate first thought was that of the Organization. This was, however, quickly dismissed. For starters, if they had found her, there was a better chance of her being dead instead of alive at this point. And if they did keep her alive, she certainly would not have been free to move around. Not to mention this place was nothing they would own. So it was logical enough for her to assume that Gin was not anywhere around here, neither was Vermouth or anyone else.

But that didn't mean she wasn't going to feel any less nervous as she watched people come and go with wide-eyes. This was the sort of thing she could see happening in the video games the kids played, not in reality. So now the 'child' was hovering to the side of the lobby, trying to stay out of sight with the journal she had found herself with tucked under her arm. Flipping through the journal just a few minutes before had offered a few answers but most of it was difficult for her to believe. ]

Who: Jo, Julia, Spike, Gwaine, Jet, and Max!
What: The castle opts to give the gang a shared dream experience of Thanksgivings "Past".
When: The Night Before Thanksgiving.
Notes: There will be three sections for the three different "times" they've supposedly had Thanksgiving together in their implied history past. These things aren't "happening" in real time, it's just our fun way of playing with this loss a bit more by writing out the implied history that this group remembers.

( The one with the shared dreams... )

Who:Fred, Harmony and anyone else that decides to come by.
What: Thanksgiving in the Tower
When:All Day Thanksgiving
Where:The Tower
Rating:PG 13

((OOC : This log is open to anyone and everyone that wants to stop by. I will be setting up some initial section, but feel free to add any others as needed. There's lots of places in the tower for people to break away))

You know what?

I'm tired of letting Thanksgiving get away from me. Because that's just not -- it's Thanksgiving. I know I mentioned doing something a few weeks ago, but I almost let it get away from me. Well I'm not going to.

Harmony and I stayed up most the night, but I think we managed to make a decent go of things. Enough that I'm not embarrassed to have anyone over. The turkey's not quite done yet, but feel free to head up to the tower now.

[A thoughtful pause]

It's an open invitation too, if I didn't make that clear.

huntersdaughter

Who: It's Thanksgiving! ANYONE WHO WANTS FOOD!
Where: The Lux & Paradisa Perk in the lobby
What: Food. Too much of it.
When: Thanksgiving. All Day.
Notes: Threadjacking is a-okay! 3rd person and [spam] are welcome! Also this is a continuation of the Friend Loss.

The Coffee Shop in the lobby is fully decorated for the season. Paper fold-out turkeys and browns and orange colors are streamed around. The coffee flavors for the day have a nice Pumpkin Spice or feel free to pick out something more warm cinnamon-scented. The Lux has a myriad of lovely flavors swimming around and out the doors. Turkey, potatoes (four kinds), tofurkey for her vegetarian friend(s), and everything that you could possibly dream to have for Thanksgiving is here. Stuffing, pies, casseroles -- Neal and Jo outdid themselves and it's all cooked and prepared by hand. No Ghosts were used in the preparation of this meal.

Jo is dressed for the holiday and mostly running around the kitchen bossing people around. There might have been a moment where she was clapping and shouting at all of her helpers to "Move it! Move it!"

It'll all be worth it in the end.

Everyone will be at her place and she'll be the host and it'll all be perfect.

Perfect.

It'll be perfect or she's going to kill someone. Possibly.

[Do smells go over the journal? Jo hopes so, because the Lux smells so good.]

Does anyone not have Thanksgiving day plans? Because, if you don't, which I'm sure some of you don't, you should come down to the Lux.

I cooked all day and all night and it smells so good that you all will be really sorry if you don't come.

Also, Julia made an English Trifle... [SO CLEARLY YOU NEED TO EAT THIS. Mmmm... jam and custard and ladyfingers and... beef and peas. Please don't make her the only one eating this.]

It's just an informal gathering with a lot of food.

(ooc: here's the LOG for the event!)

[Dictated]

It's been a few days since I arrived here, and I realized I haven't used the journal yet. The book's really popular, isn't it? There are so many conversations and discussions, it's pretty amazing.

[She pauses, making a thinking 'hmmm' noise before continuing.]

I think, in America back on Earth, today is supposed to be Thanksgiving. It would have been my first one there. I've been told time stands still back home, and I'll still be able to celebrate it; I'm not too worried anymore.

The holiday's about giving thanks, right? What are people here thankful for? You don't need to be American or even human to be grateful for what you have.

[OOC: Feel free to burst her bubble when it comes to the holiday. :')]

[Perched on a leafless tree out in front of the castle is a merlin. It seems very calm, even calculating as it watches what's going on around it. It may even be staring at certain things. Eerie, isn't it. What do you do?]

[somebody has discovered the joys of American football. Sort of.

Anybody wandering into the Games Room will find Isabela parked in front of the TV.]

Is this really what people do for fun? Wear tights and throw themselves on top of each other? And Andraste's knickers, why does the man in the stripes keep separating them?

[a sigh can be heard] This is such a tease.

[He may not be able to talk since his arrival at Paradisa, but that doesn't stop Phoenix from "singing" along to music--or at least lip-synching, which is exactly what he's doing as he sits by the edge of the pool, decked out in some extremely plain blue swim trunks, dangling his feet in the shallow end.

He's got a small, portable radio cranked up loud enough to be well heard over the bubbling of the nearby hot tub. It seems to be playing a certain song at the moment, and he's getting pretty into it. And may or may not be pretending to sing into an invisible microphone. And also playing air instruments. While mouthing the words:

"Finally I figured out, but it took a long long time
Oh now there's a turnabout, maybe 'cause I'm tryin'"

And so on and so on.

All in all, he's pretty much making a fool of himself because no one else is at the pool. ~~Which is of course just asking to be caught.~~ Periodically, during lyrical downtime, he opts for whistling along to the music while doodling some nonsensical spirals into his journal.]

((Operating under the assumption that the radio and/or his whistling will be picked up by the journal. Or you know, action works too!))

So. Tron talked about a lightcycle he and Clu had modded to work out here. You wouldn't happen to have that around, would you?

--And can you ride?

[/Alan Bradley]

[People Who Went On The Last Expedition]

I heard you all rode a "train". [He sounds like he's unfamiliar with the word.] What was powering it? Steam? Is its power source still out there or was it destroyed along with the "train"?

[/Explorers]

[and then to the castle in general]

What happens to the power crystals when someone who owns them goes home? Do they vanish too? They shouldn't, because they're a part of this world...right?

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.
