Arrival!

[ruin_mania]

[Good morning, Paradisa! Thanks to a little getting-up-at-the-crack-of-dawn, the expedition-goers will be crossing the Dead Zone border about ten AM today and from there it's just a quick TARDIS jump back to the castle. They come bearing news, stolen gold, reports of the Totem Coast and the Lastlook river, and even a guest or two.

For some it's a relief to get back to the castle - it's been insistently tugging at the residents the entire time they've been gone - and for others it's like shouldering a weight again. A few unexpected disappearances along the way bring some solemnity to the group, but despite the rough conditions along the way the group as a whole seems to be rather upbeat. Maybe it's just the prospect of a hot shower and a meal they don't have to cook themselves, or maybe it's the lowered stress of having been away from the castle for a while. Maybe both.

Feel free to mingle, run for your rooms, or just sit back and relax after a long three weeks, and thanks for exploring!]

[Damon's starting to wonder who he pissed off. (Everyone is the short answer, but he is thinking in more specific terms.) The giant pile of crap on his plate in Mystic Falls was bad enough, now he's...wherever the hell this place was supposed to be. With a magical little journal no less. Maybe if Damon was a twelve year old girl or Stefan (what's the difference, really?) he'd be into this. But frankly? He'd rather go home to the hybrid temper tantrum.

Right, well, since no immediate solutions to this predicament presented themselves, he might as well give the journal a whirl while he tried to get a lay of the land.]

So, I'm sure this has been asked ad nauseum, but where the hell am I and how the hell do I get out? As adorable as all this fairy princess crap is, I have things to do and people to see. [Possibly people to kill, but he'll leave that off the list for now.]

((ooc: Feel free to find him wandering about the castle or just talk at him through the journal. Whichever! C:))

[He... was just on the field. He was literally just on the field. The lights flickered off and suddenly... suddenly there's a ceiling?

He'll stare up at it for a few minutes before noting the pain at the back of his head. That's right he took a spill down some stairs and- damn, he's back in Paradisa. Fuck.

At least the going back to the time you came from thing was true. He doesn't even want to think of what could have happened if he was actually away from home for as long as he's been stuck in Paradisa.]

So, anybody going to tell me how long I was out for?

Welcome to the 14th Annual Hunger Games

[It's the middle of the day. Maybe you're just walking out of your door to go meet someone. Maybe you heard a suspicious noise outside your door. In any case, you look out your door.

And it's there.

Peeta is nonchalantly going around, leaving a lawn gnome in front of every door. No big deal. He seems pretty wrapped up in his work, dark circles under his eyes and his hair messy. But he'll talk to you. And he'll respond to any journal inquiries about the gnomes.

GNOMES]

[ooc: Yes. GNOMES. If Peeta knows your character, feel free to say the gnome even looks like them! Or not, your choice. Peeta will be leaving a lawn gnome in front of everyone's doors.]

i need you so much closer

[Her hands rest to the edges of the journal, placed in her lap. Seated outside in the center of the city, she's found a lovely spot to rest near the fountain. Every so often a breeze sprays water onto the journal, but a delicate touch wipes the spots away. Her hair is pinned atop her head, helping with the warmer weather, though she still dresses in the slightly formal attire.]

I feel as though I am missing out on so much having come from a time that not many are familiar with.

Which is why I present this question: If you could travel back and teach someone something that was vital for their existence in the present day, what would you show them?

I would like to learn these things. I feel that it would assist me, so that I may not be the girl constantly with her mouth drawn agape when something is revealed to me.

[ Well this has been one long and adventurous journey, but James is glad to be back, in the bed the castle provided him, in his own, natural form.

God he missed having hands. ]

Well that was fun. Nothing like a little adventure from time to time. Lets not do that again any time soon, however. I think I'm good for nice, long break from everything for the time being.

forward dated to ~*~*the future*~*~! or... the weekend.
