[Konzen is in the library today quietly reading up on various things. There are many books here not to be found in Heaven and he finds a good deal of them interesting despite being a very laid back person. Being chased by the Heavenly Army and nearly dying did inspire him to do just a touch more with his life it would seem.]

[ Somewhere along the way John opens his journal and stares at it, he's not sure what to say at first. What the hell is he even supposed to say? Hi, I'm back from the worst month of my life? ]

Hey, it's John Watson. [ A beat. ] I'm back. [ It's a start. Sounds ridiculous but it is a start. He doesn't bother to hide the exhaustion in his voice. He's tired and drained. So hi Paradisa, your resident blogger is awake. ]

[foolreversed]

[Adachi got back from the outpost just the other day and two things greeted him:
1) a new head splitting headache because of his Persona no longer being suppressed by the Dead Zone (which felt awesome btw, he forgot what it was like to not have constant headaches)
2) the most important person to him in the castle apparently going home, coming back and forgetting him while also acting like a bitch

Yeah he isn't really happy with this, fuck your shit castle.

He's writing today because he doesn't want the castle at large to hear how he sounds right now]

does anyone have headache medicine
i heard someone ask a week or two ago but wasnt around to get any myself
itd be really appreciated
i can usually deal with headaches fine but this is worse than usual
it feels like something is trying to split my head open like a watermelon
it sucks
so yeah
please and thank you

im also considering moving out of the castle
not sure where to start though


[Filtered to people who know Colette well (including Zelos because he actually forgot he was even there at the time and didn't notice anything different with him yet dfjkbdfchjk)]

[for this though he starts talking out loud]

Does anyone know what the heck is up with Colette?

Like okay, putting aside this whole went back home and came back forgetting everyone shit. I mean her attitude.

Was she ever like that before I got here or something...?


[...one last thing]

one. [action]

[selfdom]

This is ridiculous. I mean seriously, am I just getting tosses here and there for someone’s amusement ‘cause it’s sure as hell not as funny as they think.... [ a moment to see if anyone comes out.... nope ]

Man this sucks.

Okay okay, I should think about a way to get out of here, wherever here is… Huh, okay. That’s first on my list. Find out where I am and then I can work on a plan to get out of here and back to saving Cassie and Tim.

[ a glance around ]

Well that castle looks like my best guess.

Here’s to hoping there’s someone useful in there.



ooc. here you go paradisa 8) eat your heart out.

[Dictated]

Is there a garden or something here anywhere? Or maybe a place I could start one? Trying to grow things in my window isn't really working out so well after all.

[midget]

[ Today, Evangeline is by the indoor pool, just chilling in one of those lounging beach chairs. Her journal sits on a table next to her, next to a glass of lemonade, and she dictates into it absently. ]

You know, for once this place is a little bit interesting.

Between people coming back from self-imposed exile, some people having a one-eighty in personality, and this new expedition being planned... I'm actually a little excited. That doesn't happen often. This place is usually so stagnant that it's physically painful.

[ She pauses a moment. ]

That alternate reality thing a while back seemed fairly interesting, too. Unfortunately, I wasn't involved in that.

I hope this place continues being entertaining.


[ ooc: Obviously open in person or via journal. ]

Five paces forward, then stop.

Yes, Grandmaster.

[The sound of something heavy and mechanical can be heard over the journal today, the source of which is clearly visible to anyone near the courtyard: a very humanoid red, blue, and silver robot. Hank is nearby, observing it quietly.

It does what it's told, walking forward five steps before stopping.]

Were any problems detected?

None, Grandmaster.

Run another diagnostic. I want to be sure. But first, Alpha... what is your creed?

...No ma... No man esca-- escapes escapeszzzzzz--

[The machine's voice quickly devolves into static, as it stands motionless. Hank rubs his temple.]

... great. Oan engineering at it's finest.

[ those two filters done and set up, the stylist settles into the couch he has decided to occupy in the castle lobby today. he has a set of various pencils by him, as well as sketchbooks, and is lost in his own madness world at the moment. he is periodically looking up and at residents floating in and out and taking details here and there. feel free to be nosy or catch him studying you intently! ]

[queensconsort]

[There's someone haunting the library today. It's a figure familiar to some and terrifying to others: lanky, robed from head to toe in dark crimson, with two long ears and silvery hair leaking out of the hood. Krasus drifts from aisle to aisle until he finds what he's searching for. One may spot him, then, either reading at a table or perusing the black magic section. Notably, he is missing the last two fingers of his left hand, though it doesn't bother him at all.

Judge his reading choices if you want. He gives absolutely zero fucks since he's not planning to use it.]

[ooc: OPEN OPEN OPEN.]

Second Crazy Thought [Dictated]

[not_like_the_rest]

[The sound of the woods is clear in the feed. It seems that the book was opened by the wind, because it's owner is not the first thing that you hear.

Instead? The sharp thud of an axe being burred into a tree rings through the pages.]

Haha~! This is much better.

[Johanna's voice rings clear and happy. It is something that is rarely heard from the Victor. This, this is the kind of thing that makes her truly happy though. Being out in the woods, the smell of freshly cut lumber, the sweat on her brow!

She's breathing heavily, a thin layer of sweat shinning on her skin. She's only wearing short shorts and a sports bra, so her clothing doesn't get in the way. Johanna has the body to pull it off though.

It takes her about fifteen minutes of chopping lumber and just happily throwing her Axe before she notices that the journal is open, and she stops for a moment to walk over to it.]

Haha. So anyone out there want to join me in the woods? Rue?

What is the absolute worst thing a person could lose?

♅ tenth

[themistress]

[Mistress has a falcon.

More specifically, she has a falcon that's capable of killing with its eyes.

Now, it's true that she had gotten frustrated with the thing in her own world, and given it away. But it was still decent entertainment, since she didn't exactly have punishments to enact in Paradisa, not ones that the falcon could interfere with.

So she wished her falcon back to her. And now? Now she's hunting. All over the castle.

Her bait is gnomes. Gnomes that she has released all over the castle. A loud cry goes out.]

KILL!

[And then there's a falcon shriek and a zapping noise. But this isn't an open field, so the falcon will eventually have to fly if it wants to kill all the gnomes.]


[ ooc: KILLING FALCON ON YOUR FLOOR/IN THE KITCHEN/AROUND THE CASTLE! But thanks to the castle, it's not capable of giving residents anything stronger than a mild tingle. Also that link is SFW as long as you don't go to any other pages]

'cause everything is never as it seems;

[persequor]

[ The journals catch the sound of a warning hiss and a frustrated growl. A pattering of feet and yowling follow. For anyone in the ballroom, you'll see a girl with a grumpy looking cat in her arms. She smiles down at it. ]

Told you I could catch you.



(( ooc: feel free to claim the cat as your character's own if they have one ♥ ))

xix λ exploration

[assassino]

( Stephanie Brown )

[Here's a fairly chipper tone:]

There are conversations about expeditions... I wonder, curiously, why there is so much waiting involved. There is no need to amass supplies nor food when the castle gifts it so readily, no need to search for patrons to fund the expedition, so why do people not simply pack up a horse and depart? Even women and children could travel easily, like this.

People from the future are terribly pampered.

[Meanwhile, you can find Ezio in the garden, picking flowers for his lady.]
