Combined Magic/Support Reserves Meeting, The Preserve, Wednesday Afternoon

Thanks to baking class today, there were plenty of cupcakes to go around for anyone who showed up today. They were also very...interestingly decorated, but fairly heavy on the frosting, so all was well. There were also assorted pastries and things from J,GoB in case anyone got tried of cupcakes and wanted something else.

When everyone was more or less assembled and had gotten something to snack on, Karla stepped forward. "Welcome to the first ever meeting of the combined Magic and Support Reserves. I'm Karla and this is Tara, for Magic; Emmett, for Support; and Raven, who's liaising for both because she's just awesome that way." Karla smiled at the other leaders and turned back to the group. "For those newbies who haven't yet heard, Fandom gets invaded on a semi-regular basis: in the past, students have fought off gremlins, alligators, monkey-ponies, zombies, harpies, and a whole slew of other creatures that I've probably never even heard of. That's why the three reserves were formed: the Military Reserves for people with weapons skills, the Magic Reserves for people with paranormal powers--" Karla had looked that term up "--and Support for people who are willing to patch up the injured, research to find the best way to defeat the latest invasion, keep people fed and hydrated, and organize the non-combatants to keep everyone as safe as possible. Since there's a lot of overlap between the two latter groups, we decided to try having both meetings together."

"Since it's the first week, we're going to do some introductions and then a fun activity." She pointed to the second table, covered in notebooks, sandwich fixings, first aid equipment, and half-filled balloons. There was enough glitter on the table to suggest what the balloons were likely filled with. "So, for the introductions: name, year, and why you showed up today, please. An explanation of any powers or useful skills would also be appreciated, but not mandatory. And then I'll explain the activity," she said, flashing them all a mischievous smile.

[Please wait for OCD is up. As always, these meetings are open to all. No one needs to participate in the activities to show up, listen, and eat. People can join any and all reserves, so please don't feel limited!]

"I have heard of that group," Raven said, nodding. "I had thought of attending but I have just as little experience with...such things." Despite working in the sex toy shop, shhh.

"No experience necessary!" Emmett said, shaking his head. "Pre-requisites are having an interest in sex, wanting to support somebody else's right to, or wanting to watch gay porn with free chips and drinks." They hadn't watched gay porn yet, no, but don't think it wasn't on his list just so he couldtake a picture of the expression on Gabrielle's face.

Raven blushed. "Merlin showed me portions of his porn collection," she said. "It was...interesting."

"It's always the quiet ones," replied Emmett, but he didn't show a lot of surprise, somehow. "If it was just interesting, though, he was showing you the wrong porn."

"I know there are many types from the movies that are at Lady Aphrodite's store," Raven said, "but I am not certain any would truly appeal to me. There is no emotion in them."

"Ohhhh, you want the other kind of porn. The kind they show on Lifetime." Which Emmett nevereverever watched. Ever.

"Lifetime?" Raven said. "I do not think Lady Aphrodite carries that line in the store."

"More emotions, less skin, cable tv," Emmett explained.

"Oh, like Rumor Gal?" Raven said. No, she totally wasn't addicted. Really.

"The people on Lifetime shows tend to have souls, but other than that, yeah, just like Rumor Gal!"

"I enjoy watching things where people let their emotions guide them," Raven said. "It helps me learn about them."

The same could probably be said for porn, Raven.

"I'm gonna take a wild guess and say you're not from around here." If anyone was.
