From Meridian

Ben looks like a bunch of us didn't forget of course, so we decided that we'll get you something.

I know its ill-advised but here, its on us.

[Attached - keys to a Mechanohog]

Your gifts in the garage.

And Gwen, both of you! You two also have something as well. We chipped in, all of us.

[Attached to LittleGwen - A series of academic books related to her preferred study]
[Attached to OlderGwen - Keys to a Mechanohog. Yes it's a trend]

Tell me I didn't just see Elyon and Hay Lin get together? Is today Topsy Turvy Day or Backwards Day or maybe even Groundhog Day? Heck, I'll take Weasel Stomping Day.

Opposite Day. Yeah. It's got to be Opposite Day.

Mom, Cassidy, Cornelia, Karin and Lillian, wanna spend time together today? It's fathers day and all, and dad's back in Meridian. So I figured, make it another family outing.

Aye, girls? Caleb needs some clothing. We're looking at about, oh hmmm... borrow something from Will's mom. He's a little big in the chest.

Not funny Ryuudamon! Now get me something to wear. Something that isn't soaking wet.

And for the record, clean up, floor 2. Don't touch the water. I think it's loaded with Gender Swapping Substances.

Looks like the gauntlet of presents has landed Hay Lin, so from all of us at the Inn, we got you one BIG one. It's a summonable mount, crafted by all of us. Took us a while to adapt to the design but...!

Just press the button and it'll immediately eject to a standing position. And I always saw you as the type to drive either a convertible or a motorcycle.

Very funny you guys.

And for the record, my butt looks too big in this dress. Turn me into a girl next time if you do that to me again.

Now I gotta find some kind of industrial strength cleaner to get this gunk off.

Happy Mothers Day ma. If you're up for it, want to go out for brunch? My treat. And can we make it a family outing if you want to come along, Sasami and Karin?

Cornelia, I have something for you. Happy Birthday.

[Attached - a wrapped bracelet with two different stones in it, one green one earth-brown]

I just wanted to say that I'm really glad I got to know you.

DEADPOOL YOU'RE DEAD!

No kidding. Who the hell carries a barrel of sparkles around?

Guys?

Why is BB's room filled with this really black sticky-looking mass?

And is he in there?

... not my headache. I ain't cleaning that up.

(ooc: after this)

Morning. You survived the beating I see.

Yep. Why weren't you in the line up?

I figure we're now in the same boat. So technically, we're square. For now.

Right.

... hey are you using an illusion again? You're totally sporting black eyes and stuff huh?

... maybe. That and Primal said that putting up a small cosmetic one would help me adjust a little better. Green stripes only look good when going on a commando mission.

I hear that.

So um... I'm back.

Skuld I miss Caleb. He was an idiot but he was MY idiot.

All right, I'm going.

You sure you don't want to say goodbye to everyone? I've got you on speaker.

Trust me, I need to do this.

... you're still running away.

I know that, but if there's a chance that I can do this I--

Guys? I hate to say this but a bunch of us just got drafted for something Sparrow's got planned for a ruin via Mrs. Vandom and Marty. Thus being said, me, Sarge, Matthew, Vader, Optimus, Jarrod, Chien and Sam are headed out to some remote island treasure cache to help Mrs. V and Marty with whatever they need done.

Dinner's in the fridge for the next couple of days, and if you need a responsible adult, get Ransik, Xanatos or Natsuki to look into it.

Later days!

EDIT: Oh and Mrs. Lin too. Sorry, I keep forgetting someone in these announcements.

EDIT THE SECOND: And RJ. And probably Kronk while I think about it.

Happy birthday Sasami! We've got a lot of stuff for you all from the residents!

Geez, you girls look like hell this morning. Matt too. Didn't get enough sleep? I slept like a log.

I'm sharply reminded why I hate this day.

Rule One and all.

At least no one thought of redoing this day over and over again damn the consequences.

You look so serious, hunched over the desk working on that.

Gotta keep it updated, and we've got a lot of material to work with.

... you do realize that you don't spell atrocious with two t's and a second s, right?

Meridian alphabet.

Yeah right. C'mon bud, we're getting you a spellchecker. Let's go to the Bullpen -- Fillmore's up late helping Xanatos with something.

Fine fine.

CIRCUS CLOWN! THAT'S IT!

Once again our good friends from Azeroth has brought us a new festival that happily coincides with our own earth traditions. We're holding the Lunar Festival tonight in the main pavilion. There will be festival clothing, both pantsuits and dresses, moon dumplings and Elune Stones that cast a beam of light where you want it to be! Come on down and join the festival. It starts tonight at sundown and ends on the chiming of the new holiday!

[locked to Elementverse People, Friends of Said People]

At midnight, we will all send a prayer to Kimiko, our guardian patron of Omi Pwnage that she prevents another disaster from happening. Because everyone knows that we don't want The Omi Fucked Up Timeline to happen AGAIN.

That is all. I've also got prayer tags for the trees too just in case.

Sorry about not being here this afternoon, Matt and I ran into Sparrow and we fought off Nazi Zoobats, Tanukimon with Lightsabers and an Elephamon Stampede. What'd we miss?

It's that time of celebration, or rather a fair and festival of fun.

In short, we're looking for people to come and participate as vendors and what not for the Darkmoone Faire. It'll have a whole bunch of things available. I promise it won't get as out of hand as Brewfest mind you.

Cause after this week is over, the Lunar Festival begins in two weeks. We'll need people for that.

Anyone interested in providing services for this event?

Just fyi? I didn't go Sanders again.

Guys? I need help.

I just bought a pile of presents and I needs me some aluminum foil. Like ten rolls of it.

Can't have Clark peeking again; I just got him his presents from "Santa".

Hey everyone, there's going to be a big Turkey Day feast so uh, yeah. I need volunteers to help setting up the ginormous table and places and decorate for it. I know it's early but we need an attendance list to see who's going to be able to make it and who's willing to help set up the night before.

It's on the 27th just FYI and we'll be setting up in the 26th.

Oh, and bring a friend residents. Sam's going to make one of those big epic Hobbit Feasts that could feed the Shire which means we'll be drowning in food.

Anyone else is welcome to come for the feast if you have none to attend that day. Seriously, Sam makes so much food in one of his feasts. Oh, and you're welcome to bring food too.

The Great Hall will be used for this in the Middle Court.

So uh, yeah. RSVP?

Happy Birthday Elyon. A little bird told me it was yours after all.

[Attached - Kongoumon’s Bead Necklace]

Hold still. This'll work!

That's what you said the last few dozen times!

*FOOM-WHOOOSH*

YUS!

I'm a pirate! And a ghost! I'm a pirate-ghost-zombie thing!

Well that batch of magic wands works! All right, time to get this stuff distributed!

Okay um, new business.

Asuna is dragging myself and her new student to Goc where we will be undertaking the most punishing, most humiliating and most degrading training of all time. So, um, I'm going to appoint Ben, as usual to fill in my shoes. Matt knows what to do too and if there's any problems, get Fillmore's help if there's any disputes. And, um, all else fails... ask Xanatos. Or Vader. Or Kira. Or Sam. Or Jarrod. Someone other than myself cause I'm probably eating sand every two minutes to answer calls.

I don't know how long Asuna's going to drill us in the desert but it's going to be long and painful. I'm feeling the horrifying memories returning as we speak.

Matt I know this entire week sucked but you feeling okay? Haven't heard anything beyond "trapped by Xanatos".

If you want, we could go and train together for old times sake.

Well...

THIS isn't a good thing. Now I wish I was in Tahiti.

(ooc: strikes fail lock)

Armstrong. C'mon man, we're going for a vacation. Bring whoever you want along.

[Attached - Remote Beach]

Bring your paperwork. It'll be less stressful than running yourself ragged.

Okay, so we all know that Ninjas attacked. Hell I doubt the entire world doesn't know by now due to the epic hivemind that we had. This place is like Hogwarts: a carefully guarded secret = the entire school knows.

SO! Basically HippoGryphomon crashed into the wing (which will shortly be replaced and EXPANDED MWAHAHAHAHA), and we were attacked by Ninja Peckmon. WHY they were ninjas while they were already ninja is that they were white feathered and black suited. Thus, ninjas.

Ravemon came down and took out the two who triple jogressed into two bigger badder perfects, and well, shit happened at least. They carted the chief away but since you saw the news report, well, yeah.

Any questions, concerns, pie?

BACK ELBOW SHOULDER!

THUD

OW. You okay?

Uh... GEEZ! What the hell man!

SORRY SORRY! Man, tell me next time you come in to wash the place and leave soap lying around!

ME?! You're supposed to be crashing into girls, not, well, ME!

Look just hand me my towel.

As soon as you GET OFF ME!

Oh. Right.

(ooc: italics Other!Matt.)

Just thought y'know, let bygones be bygones and all. I'd like to send you something so that you won't be all gross and squicky when we look at ya.

Look, fashionable. My little way of saying Thanks for the Memories.

[ooc: Caleb's SUCH AN ASS]

Um... yeah.

We can haz candles?

This is what happens when Will Vandom gets upset: lightbulbs DIE.

(ooc: strikes for show)

Elyon, I have to ask.

How did you stand it? Being trapped in that thing for months on end...

... I thought I'd go nuts, trying to break free. I lost count of days, and I was only in there for barely a month.

Hey guys, I'm headed out on a business trip. We've got some deliveries I'd like to see to myself and I'll be stopping by the gardens down in D'Ango. I'll be gone a few weeks. Any problems with construction, poke Matt about it. The Prinnies and I haved fixed all the vital points so you'll be good till I get back.

Take care, okay?

EDIT: Oh, Ryuudamon's staying behind cause he's helping with reconstruction.

K, Matt got me into action again so I figured I may as well survey the area before I sicced the Squad on the area. Thanks to the Trash Knights and really good planning, both the Dragon and the Inn suffered quite less damage, which is tiny comparable to the rest of Tetha which could be classified as "Smoldering Ruin".

For those who want to stay in Tetha, the Inn is the best place to relocate if temporarily, especially if your room in the Dragon got hit. Since the Dragon's on the bottom of the hill and the Inn was on the top, it's like a siege fortress, so the Trash Knights had the upper hand in defensive capability. Dunno how that worked out but it did. Thus being said, feel free to snag an open room there if you're getting antsy cooped up in the cove.

Furthermore, we should make certain that all frozen people should be relocated back to their apartment buildings as soon as possible if the area is cleared up. The Dragon got hit on several floors, but it's still structurally sound. I'm getting the squad to put work plastic over the damaged holes so we can start in the morning.

Those who want to return to the cove for the evening can take the lightpost back to your room there. Jack has offered semi-permanent residence for anyone who wants it. I know it's kind of weird, but it's home for several people already. Weird being that it's at the bottom of the ocean.

Other than that, relocate any new arrivals to the Hinata Inn. We've evacuated all of our guests so the spaces can be used for Dragon tenants as well as anyone else who's homes are damaged severely from the assault.

[locked to Ben]

Hey um...

... sorry. I totally freaked on you for the wrong reasons and, well...

I understand if you don't want to learn anything else under me, so uh, yeah. Sorry again. I know words aren't going to cut it and all, but yeah.

[locked to Nerissa]

Mom, I completely screwed up. I dumped all of my frustration onto Ben.

Is it just me, or does our family not handle pain and frustration that well?
