22nd Perscription ~ [Action/Dictated]

[atadiscoverer]

[Anyone who bothers to come by the church in town will find someone in it, cleaning it up, dusting, squaring everything away.

Someone you might not expect.

Carson is working rather dilligently, dust and muck smeared across one cheek, whistling as he works on getting the place ready. If he's honest, he's feeling bad that he let it go this long without looking in on the place...

The sounds of cleaning will translate over the journals, but the book will be kept out of harm's way.]

Do we have anyone here who can say mass? [Comes a slightly distant, Scottish voice.] It's just that I'm busy cleaning up the church in town, and I figured it might be nice to have a Christmas mass here. Keep things a wee bit traditional for those who celebrate Christmas.

Also, anyone who wants to help me keep this place tidy, help would be appreciated. I know at least three people who would be thankful.

[forsometimenow]

I'll be right over. I need to take Blue for a walk, anyway.

[atadiscoverer]

I'll see you in a wee bit, then.

[forsometimenow]

You're not allergic to dogs, I hope? Blue's a sheepdog, so that'd make it a lot worse...

[atadiscoverer]

No, I'm not. I'd have to draw the line at cats, though.

[forsometimenow]

Good. I'd hate for you to not be able to visit me.

[atadiscoverer]

I would visit anyway. I know a few good antihistamines.

[forsometimenow]

I'm glad.

[atadiscoverer]

Well, whenever you're ready. I'm not going anywhere.

[lightbranded]

A mass would be marvelous. It won't quite seem like Christmas without one, I don't think.

I wouldn't mind cleaning either. I haven't much to do these days.

[atadiscoverer]

We were in Paris last year, I managed to get into Notre Dame for Midnight mass.

[Carson always attended church on Christmas, Easter etc. Even when on Atlantis, there was a small chapel set up.]

And help squaring the place away will be much appreciated.

[lightbranded]

Aaa, I was here for that. It was just before I was sent home.

[At home, Will sang in the choir of his local church. He'd missed it greatly since arriving in Paradisa.]

I don't mind.

[atadiscoverer]

Well, if we don't get sent anywhere, and I can find someone to say mass, I'm sure we can have a service here.

[lightbranded]

I would like that.

[atadiscoverer]

And if not, we can always have a carol service or something.

[lightbranded]

That would be lovely, really. I wonder if anyone here would be interested in caroling.

[atadiscoverer]

There's no harm in asking.

[lightbranded]

Never any harm in that.

[atadiscoverer]

Well, let me know. I'll help how I can.

[helljumper]

Not much of a preacher, but I'd be willing to help with the cleaning bit.

[Plus, he probably owes the doc for saving his butt a few times, if memory serves him right.]

[atadiscoverer]

[Ohai. It's you.]

The more the merrier. If we can get it clean, at least.

[helljumper]

Shouldn't be too hard. [Sounds of a shrug.] Just might take longer if there's less people.

[atadiscoverer]

Well, nothing needs fixing. [The twins saw to that]

Dust sort of gathers in places like this.

[helljumper]

Gives me an excuse to visit the church either way.

['Cause he's... actually never been in it before, not that he was one to be religious, but hey. May as well check it out.]

[atadiscoverer]

Whenever you're available.

[heloise]

That might be four.

[atadiscoverer]

I would have come do it sooner, but... I got buried in work, unfortunately.

[And he sounds kind of ashamed at that...]

[heloise]

While I can only plead ignorance.

[atadiscoverer]

Well, I'm sure they won't hold it against you. This place can be a wee bit distracting.
