MCA Lobby, 7/14

[nomoreveruca.livejournal.com]

Cally was really starting to weigh the pros and cons of building a play area in the office so she wouldn't have to drop Nicky off at daycare each morning. She'd hated leaving him with the sitter on Galactica, and this wasn't really any different. She kept worrying that she'd miss his first real steps, or when he finally made real words and not just mimicked 'no' at everything.

( Cut for emo )

She quickly turned on a radio for some noise to distract her from her thoughts. They were all too confusing for her.

Cally would be really grateful for an interruption.

Wellspring Arms & Meditation Centre, Wednesday

[intraspective]

She felt antsy and out of sorts today and Ino wasn’t too impressed with that. Self-aware enough to figure out that it wasn’t coming entirely from her (because, to be fair, she’d been out of sorts for a few weeks now) Ino was left to... brood.

While at work.

And spend a fair bit of time just studying in an attempt to put it all out of her mind and reach some sort of equilibrium.

Wellspring Arms is Open.

Groovy Tunes: Wednesday

[kissytheface.livejournal.com]

It was Dandelion's first day at her new job and she wanted to make sure that any potential clients were prepared for their shopping experience. Which is why Dandelion had posted a sign which said:

Warning!
Store employee is authorized to use DEADLY FORCE
by the secret government agency she works for.

And no taunting the pet rock.

Satisfied with the sign, Dandelion plugged her guitar into her amp and proceeded to work on her guitar solo from God bites Man.

Groovy tunes is open but you might have to shout to get Dandelion's attention. Flares might work too.

The Perk

[lovethenubbins.livejournal.com]

After an energetic morning run and a shower, Ashley headed over to the Perk. Her mother's genes apparently kicked in because she decided to order a large cup of tea instead of coffee. She also decided to indulge with a couple of cookies.

She sat at a corner table and sipped her tea while waiting for Captain Price.



[Ash is meeting Price but post is open if anyone else wants to chat or for your own Perk needs!]

Luke's Diner, Wednesday

[lordofthecats.livejournal.com]

Lion-o and the cook were discussing -- okay, arguing -- about the benefits of bacon. The cook thought bacon was too salty. Lion-o felt that bacon could make anything taste better. They finally agreed to put it to test and see what the customers thought.

Today's Specials
Grilled Cheese with Bacon
Bacon-wrapped Brussels Sprouts
Bacon-wrapped Asparagus
Bacon-wrapped Shrimp
Bacon-flavored Milkshake

Luke's was open for all your bacon needs!

Pixie Dust, Wednesday

[sweet-balls.livejournal.com]

"Rompers!" Shelley exclaimed, going through the new stock. "I love rompers!" She was entirely too excited, and if you stopped into the store today and didn't immediately see Shelley, she was probably in a changing room, grooving to the store music, and checking herself out in some crazy designer adult onesies.

[ooc: SP kinda day for moi!]

Caritas | Wednesday

[decoder-rings.livejournal.com]

Hannibal was experimenting. He'd brought a toaster from his room into the bar and was now trying to cook Hot Pockets all the way through. And who was testing these Hot Pockets out? Tino, of course. Hannibal gave him some cock and bull story about them being gourmet and a total girl attractor and Tino, being Tino, believed him.

Right now, Hannibal was on his fifth Hot Pocket and Tino was beginning to realize that everything about Hot Pockets was fake and gross.

Cabot and Associates, Wednesday

The woods, Wednesday, all day and all of the night

[fh_beasties]

The stone had settled in nicely now, was really getting into the groove of its ancient task, sending power pulsing out across the island and across the multiverse to those still connected to the island. Making each and every one of them a promise.

If you dream them they will come.

It shared their dreams and stored the memories away, keeping them safe until it was ready to send out the call.

It wouldn't be long now until it had what it needed.

[Second verse, same as the first. Keep on dreaming, and there's OCD for those who are coming to touch the stone and for those who want to know where the heck this weird power signature/feeling is coming from.

That people in the first thread went into the woods is FB (unless otherwise marked); touching the stone is NFB.]

Atlas Gym - Wednesday

[provostsdog.livejournal.com]

"You're acting strange," Beka remarked. Pounce was sitting in front of the open gym door, looking out on the street. "Pounce?"

The cat blinked and turned his head towards her, looking distracted.

"Is sommat up?" she asked.

"Yes," Pounce said and he glanced back outside.

Beka sighed and watched the statue of a black cat for a moment. She knew she'd not be getting an answer and she rubbed her nose thoughtfully. If it were dangerous, she'd tell him, but Pounce had more secrets than a regular cat and prying'd do her no good.

[Qui dit étude dit travail, Qui dit taf te dit les thunes, Qui dit argent dit dépenses, Qui dit crédit dit créance, Qui dit dette te dit huissier, Oui dit assis dans la merde. Qui dit Amour dit les gosses, Dit toujours et dit divorce... OCD got earwormed. Deal with it.]

The Beach, Wednesday Evening

[guardianborn.livejournal.com]

The chance of thunderstorms earlier seemed to have dissipated into a really nice night. The type of night that called for spending an evening on the beach. It wasn't too hot for a fire, but Rose hadn't really bothered so much with one, mostly because gathering wood was boring. And sandy.

Instead the water had turned a glassy grey as the sun started to set behind the island, and Rose was considering if there was a need for a swim. She had her swimsuit on but she hadn't yet gotten up - partially because there was a carton of blueberries and raspberries out on the blanket over the sand that needed to be eaten before sand worked their way into them.

Still, swimming was an interesting idea. She glanced over at the girl she'd dragged along. "Gonna go for a swim or do I get to splash you when I get back out?"

[For the girl there and any others who might happen along!]

The Perk [Wednesday evening]

[notqueenyet.livejournal.com]

After another dream had woken her in the middle of the night with a warm feeling, and a stronger pull towards the island, Aravis had dressed at dawn and waited for Cor to wake to say goodbye. He'd been concerned, but she assured him that she needed to do this, and that she'd be back in a matter of days. (Though, she added, it might be longer, as Fandom's time moved differently.

With a kiss and a promise to return within the fortnight, Aravis took off through the woods, pushing her horse (not Hwin) faster than she would have normally. Now that she was in Fandom, she figured that the evening called for a cup of tea before settling into her hotel room.

So here she was in the Perk, enjoying a cup of spiced tea with honey and quietly wondering what she was doing here. It was strange.
