The Roof, Tuesday Evening

2007-08-28T19:32:00Z

Posted by: cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com

Pacing was good, and so was smoking (arguably), when you were on edge about something; Anders just happened to be capable, believe it or not, of doing both things at once. And so he was up on the roof, pacing and smoking at the same time, trying hard not to think too much about Sunday's unsettling trip to the Underworld, or how frakking fast these last few days were going.

And maybe, if he thought hard enough, he could come up with a way to freeze time.

. . . yeah, right. He might've managed (even though he couldn't for the life of him figure out how) to knock out a demon, but that wasn't going to turn him into a miracle worker overnight or anything.

Stupid time, and its stubborn insistence on moving forward.

[OOC: Anders and Bel's thread locked to them, but the roof is open for all your roof needs, emo or non-emo.]

The Kiss-In -- Friday After Workshops, The Gym

2007-08-17T19:09:00Z

Posted by: walks-two-paths.livejournal.com

Luckily, the Gym had been set up last night before the unfortunate changing into an animal incident.

There was a sign-in sheet and a table full of refreshments. There were also a lot of blankets spread out on the practice mats on the floor for more comfortable seating arrangements. There were signs all over the gym that said:

WELCOME TO THE FANDOM HIGH KISS-IN!!!!

There was another sign by the table that listed the rules:

1) Kiss anyone you like for as long as you like.
2) Not comfortable with kissing? Huggings are just fine.
3) Shirts are optional.
4) If you find yourself getting carried away, please take it somewhere private. We're protesting, but not everyone is not public orgies.
5) Have fun breaking the no PDA and 8 inches apart rules!

As of yet, Savannah was not there, but everything else looked to be in order.

There was no reason to wait for her to be there to start your protesting.

[[OOC: Welcome to the Kiss-In, the PDA protest that was indeed approved by umbitch. ~~Please wait for the slight~~ OCD is up! Have at it.]]

5th Floor Common Room, Friday Evening

2007-08-03T19:39:00Z

Posted by: solowhistler.livejournal.com

In the early part of the evening, Abigail headed down to the common room, and set up for the party. There were snacks and non-alcoholic drinks, along with a few opaque bottles of alcohol that were all labeled at the bottom with what was inside. If she was going to get into trouble for her efforts, at least she'd get into a lot of trouble at the same time.

Next to the snacks were a bowl of breath mints, and a sign labeled "RULES":

1. You don't have to kiss anyone you don't want to.
2. You don't have to kiss anyone period. Passive voyeurs are welcome. Dirty voyeurs will get kicked out.
3. If you take pictures, you must promise to send a copy to Abigail Whistler, or your camera will be taken away.
4. All kissing must be done with someone of the same sex. There's liquor here for a reason!
5. If you move past the kissing stage, take it to a room unless you're comfortable with everyone watching.

Yeah, she definitely wasn't going to be telling her dad about this the next time she called home.

The Salle, Saturday Evening

2007-07-07T20:12:00Z

Posted by: cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com

So there was this sharp, shiny new present from Parker in the weapons locker, and there was an Anders, eager to learn how to use it.

He was still a little surprised that Bel had been so quick to agree to teach him swordwork, but he certainly wasn't going to complain about it -- kind of nice to not have to worry about accidentally skewering your indestructible partner, really. And so, here he was down in the salle, trying to get the feel of the sword after getting his warmups in.

All he needed, as he tried to figure out if shirtlessness might be a dangerous distraction, was the boyfriend, now.

Bel was in an extraordinarily good mood for some reason. He had no idea why, but why bother questioning it? Currently, he was up on the roof, having a cigarette as he enjoyed the cool night air.

Dorm Roof, Friday Early Evening

2007-06-08T14:22:00Z

Posted by: cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com

Flight workshop had been . . . well, fun in a nerve-wracking kind of way, if more than slightly exhausting, and Anders always felt a little bruised and cramped after spending time in the simulator cockpit. Something about being part of a battle against a droid army bothered him, though -- more than it should have, given he hadn't been alive during the Cylon War and the toasters had long since disappeared for their own part of space.

He'd dropped by to check in on Mac, which had taken his mind off of the whole droid thing for a little while, but hadn't completely banished his apparent need to brood.

Thus, quality roof time, complete with cigarettes. Seemed like the thing to do.

[OOC: 'tis roof-ily open, indeed.]

Salamander Campfire, Saturday Night

2007-06-02T18:09:00Z

Posted by: cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com

A little research and a quick shopping trip (which he probably shouldn't have taken, since now his back was hurting a little bit) had netted Anders a nice cast-iron Dutch oven. Said Dutch oven had then been cleaned and seasoned, and was now nestled comfortably in the coals at the Salamander cabin campfire, a six-cupcake baking tray filled with chocolatey batter inside.

There was a pitcher full of more cupcake batter on a nearby log, oven mitts and tongs near the fire, and an Anders happily sampling the results of his campfire-baking test run.

Would it have been easier for him to just go down to J,GoB and buy cupcakes? Sure. But dammit, he'd wanted to find out if he could do it. So there.

[OOC: Open, with fresh, if slightly gooey, cupcakes! Also, really slow/flakey/nonexistent comment notifications, so apologies in advance for slowness.]

Outside Cabin Full of Manly Men who Sometimes Dress Up as Girls to Show the Girls How It Should be D

2007-05-27T21:20:00Z

Posted by: demonbelthazor

[Sunday evening, since there's a limit on characters in the subject line.]

It was raining out, but Bel was craving a cigarette, so he slipped outside and ducked under the eaves of the cabin, then conjured a fireball to light up. He glanced over at the sign on the door and wondered who had renamed the cabin. Had to be wishful thinking, because he sure as hell had never dressed as a girl, and never would. The manly part, he could live with that.

[ooc: Open, I am le bored.]

Dorm Roof, Monday Evening

2007-05-07T17:52:00Z

Posted by: cantgetnorelief.livejournal.com

He'd been good about smoking lately, but after yesterday Anders felt kind of justified in wandering up to the roof and lighting up.

Especially after it had belatedly hit him that with everything going on in his life the past few weeks, he'd completely missed out on the first few weeks of baseball season.

Maybe he'd take a trip up to Boston again sometime soon, or maybe Baltimore, and hit the ballpark for a few days . . . it was worth considering.

[OOC: It's a roof, and it's open, and I have had serious RP withdrawal today.]

Phoebe was relaxing in the fifth floor common room. Amazingly, she was kidlet free for the moment. Pandora had gone with Anders and Artemis, and Samantha had gone off with Cole and his flock. So, she was alone.

Alone.

Time to herself.

And missing her girls.

Yeah, she was attached.

After a lazy weekend, Bel had little interest in doing anything other than kicking back and relaxing. So currently he was lounging on the couch, watching "The Amazing Race." And wondering if it was against the rules to punt some of the more annoying teams off a cliff.

Nadia had gotten a package. It had been a very long time since she'd gotten a random package that wasn't something she'd ordered.

But it was from a former boss (and not one that she'd ~~killed~~ ~~slept with~~ stopped talking to on bad terms), so she figured it was okay.

Inside were a few CDs from Lucas, and a tupperware container with an extra note on it:

Hey, little former music babe,

Lucas says you used to totally dig the secret recipe of my brownies, so I thought I'd make sure you got some more for old times sake. Try not to watch any Gwar videos when you eat them.

Keep it cool,

Eddie

Her eyes widened.

Eddie's special brownies.

SCORE!

So now she was bopping around to an odd harpsichord playing musician who sounded kind of like a cross between Betty Boop and a cat screeching but was mysteriously catchy, and eating her some good brownies.

[ooc: open. Yes, those are Eddie's special brownies. Secret ingredient: "lots of sugar". Your character may or may not recognize them for what they are, Nadia may or may not tell your character what they are, I leave that up to you]

Polexia slept in late after her night out at Caritas.

But when she woke up, she was bored and ended up wandering down to the common room. She figured out how to work the television and was very excited to find something called MTV that was showing music videos.

She dug through the cabinets and fridge and found some suitable snacks and settled in to watch this fascinating thing.

[open, as common rooms are. Marie is Polexia from Almost Famous, so she's from the early 70s. She also doesn't have Marie's mutation, so she's not covered up and she can touch people.]

Third Floor Common Room, Sunday Morning

2007-01-21T11:16:00Z

Posted by: lilpunkinbelly.livejournal.com

Dawn was wearing the same jeans and sweater she'd been wearing yesterday, not wanting to head back to her room and too tall to borrow Molly's. She was also freezing, which had led to her mixing up a very large pot of oatmeal. The fixings were in the cupboard if anyone wanted them, but she wasn't setting them out.

Instead, she was sitting with her bowl of healthy goodness (once you ignored the raisins and brown sugar she'd added to her own) and a very, very large mug of hot cocoa with mini marshmallows. She read through a large pile of books and scrolls she'd brought with her and that Giles had sent since May (not all of which were in English), trying to find anything that explained what was going on.

She made occasional notes on a pad as she worked.

Tori walked into the common room, unable to sleep after having encountered her friends, who were somehow different personalities. It made no sense. And she felt like Lothor would show up any minute... she almost wished he would, because it would explain what was going on in Fandom.

She crashed onto the couch with a sigh, wondering just what the hell was happening here.

Tori figured she might contact Cam and see if he had any theories and if there had been any activity at the Abyss of Evil.

After a strange conversation with Phoebe, Bel headed to the common room. Spreading some love and joy would brighten his mood.

The common room was a mess after the party from the night before. Bel waved his hand, setting the room to right. The walls and furniture became bright and cheery colors, and plates of nutritious yet delicious snacks and glasses of orange juice filled the tables. The TV was playing "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" (because people helping other people was quality entertainment suitable for all ages).

He left the glitter, however, because glitter was always fun.

School Grounds to Preserve, Evening, NFB

Today had been a good day, Buffy decided, leaning against a tree and smiling. You could, in fact, call it the best birthday ever! Well, she was still single, but she was sure it was just a matter of time. Seely had showed up at her party, after all. She started walking again, going over her fabulous presents in her head. She was still wearing the necklace she'd got from Mel, and she was wondering if she could talk Alec into a Bollywood marathon over the weekend. And Molly...

There was a sound and a shadow gliding past at the corner of her eye.

She hesitated, turning her head. There was something ...weird there. She debated with herself for a moment, then decided to find out what or who it was. Maybe it was a lost little teal deer?

After class, Bel made his way back up to the fifth floor. Instead of heading to his room, he sat down on the couch in the common room, picking up the remote and turning on the TV. He flipped through the channels, idly looking for something to occupy a few hours.

Number 6 was peering over the edge of the roof with a pair of field glasses, taking notes on the students passing by and jotting down suspicious behavior. He would find out which were the prisoners and which were the wardens...

[OOC: Ping to the OCD "Being Watched" thread if you want 6 to see you on the school lawn and what your character is doing as they are idly passing by. No action is too mundane for suspicion. Obviously, the roof is also open for your interactiony needs.]

Marie realized that she hadn't met any new people yet. She had seen the signs for Anders and Nadia's party, but she didn't think she was ready to be quite that sociable yet.

So she settled in to the common room with some pizza and the season one Wendy the Werewolf Stalker DVDs that she had picked up ages ago and never watched.

[open, as common rooms are. I do not have the mental capacity to handle the insanity of the evil pink pony party tonight!]
