Entry tags:
sixty shots
[ forward-dated to November 3rd ]
[ On a table in Allen's room will be several items. One item out of the rest is in plain sight, and may be quite familiar to the young man. The other items are a rather large white box containing several dozen peppermint cupcakes, a small black box containing a chrome cigarette lighter, and two envelopes, one with "Step 1" written on it, and the other with "Step 2" scrawled onto it. The contents of the first envelope are as follows: ]
Idiot Apprentice,
Ask Timcanpy to show you the recording. He knows what it is.
If you choose to not listen to it, move on to the next envelope.

[ The second envelope contains the written version of the audio recording Allen is instructed, but decides not to listen to via Timcanpy. ]
Allen,
By now I am sure you have figured out why you have received these items. You are a smart kid, albeit still letting your heart dictate your actions & decisions for you — you know how I feel about that — but overall this place has shaped you up to be something I never expected.
I included the lighter because I trust you to know when to use it and how often to do so, instead of letting it be sent back to the Insolitus and into someone else's hands. As for its purpose, the only hint you will receive is that its effect lasts sixty seconds. Try to not use up all the fuel figuring it out.

[ Several items will appear on Ashura's dresser. One item is a bottle of Romanée-Conti. Another item is a
white envelope, which can be found under several black boxes. Each box has a piece of jewelry. ]
Ashura,
For my dear friend, one of my absolute favorite bottles for your pleasure. Enjoy it in my absence. And I do hope the earrings are to your liking — lucky for you, I could not make up my mind between the three.

[ In this pristine, not-one-speck-of-dust-to-be-seen castle room, Crowley will find several out-of-place items on a table. One is a bottle of dark, rich whiskey, and another is a slightly large, square package containing a heated blanket. On top of the box is an envelope with his name on it. ]
Crowley,
Grant me one favor: keep my Idiot Apprentice in line and out of too much trouble. That boy likes to involve himself in too much business.
The whiskey will be to your liking, and the heated blanket...well, I don't think I need to explain why I included that.
— Cross
[ A box of a dozen cupcakes will appear on Eva's bed, with an envelope attacked to the top of the box. Inside, there is a short letter addressed to her. ]
Eva,
Do keep yourself out of trouble. I expect to see you in your full form next time we meet.
— Cross
[ On Felix's desk, several items will appear. One is a glass bowl of Granny Smith apples, with an envelope taped to the rim. Next to it is a gold box that contains a short sword within. The contents of the envelope are as follows: ]
Felix,
Just because I am gone, it does not mean I will stop tormenting you with your favorite fruit.
— Cross
[ A vase arranged with azalea and agrimonia flowers will appear on the dresser, along with a letter addressed to Ino. ]
Ino,
Thank you for your assistance throughout my time in Paradisa. It was greatly appreciated, and you are a beautiful young woman. I hope all will be well for you in the future.
— Cross
[ And in tiny scrawl in the bottom right corner of the letter: Quack. :) ]
[Several items will appear on her dresser — a crystal skull filled with alcohol-infused fruit; a large, deep red box containing a knife-throwing set; and an envelope taped to the top of the box with her name on it.]
Molotov,
Mol, you will be greatly missed. I am sure you can handle what the castle throws at you without my presence being needed. That husband of yours has to be good for something, right?
It should go without saying that I expect you to take care of yourself, twin.
— Cross
[ Two items will appear on a table in her room — a letter contained in a white envelope, and a wine-colored rectangular box containing this. The contents of the letter are as follows: ]
To the lovely Lady Morgana,
Your path is not an easy one. Chances are, it may never be, especially in this environment. But you are a strong woman, and with time you may have your wish. Do take care.
— Cross
[ At the foot of Rin's bed will be a black box with an envelope on top. Inside the box, Rin will find a set consisting of a Ruger KGP-141 gun and rounds. ]
Rin,
So, it looks like you will be the only Dragonsworn left in the castle. Luckily, you will not have to deal with any of the factions for some time, it seems.
I know I offered to teach you shooting, and our plans fell through, and for that I apologize. I am sure someone in the castle can start you off on the right path to being a great shooter.

[ ooc; Here is a public album of the gifts in case the websites ever go down! ]
