It was the last day of the reunion and Jessica figured she needed to take a moment alone. Get some solitude, a place to be with her thoughts for a little bit, in a quiet place. The beach would work. Have some white noise from the water, what could possibly be more relaxing.

When she got there, food was already on the grill, the volleyball net was set up, and a pig was sitting next to a spit, eating from a trough. There had to be a story there. And wait, who started grilling food on a beach only to leave it, and a pig? If this was Fandom magic, it was really weird Fandom magic.

Anyway, alone-time apparently wasn't happening. She could settle for some BBQ as long as she avoided anything that might have come from that pig's family.

The Impromptu Labor Day Beach Cookout was on!

The strange spell lifted as the sun came down, and left dozens of gremlins looking confused and bewildered all over the island. They skittered home quickly to tell tales of their terrible, no-good-day. Soon, a decision was made, and lo and behold, just an hour after sundown, signs started to appear everywhere reading SORY and WE MAKE IT UP TO U, pointing helpfully towards a clearing in the wooded area.

You wouldn't be able to miss it. For one, there was loud singing and drums that were audible from quite far away, and for two, there were very large torches sticking out everywhere, casting a glow across the woods.

There were many gremlins strewn across the clearing, and they all looked Very Apologetic. And if the gremlins themselves didn't look apologetic enough, well, there were also tables with enormous amounts of food. That was how Fandom worked, yes?

[[ wait for the ocd up! gremlins party hard! ]]

Originally, this was going to be a much smaller event, but then Fandom had to be Fandom and Portalocity had to be Portalocity, and now Zoe was wondering if there would be enough food for everyone or if she'd have to get things from the local restaurants.

For the moment though, everything was set up nicely. There were tables and chairs set up with blue and gold tablecloths, each covered with glitter from years of use. There were balloons, streamers, and other slightly tasteful decorations, also covered in glitter from years of being stored with things that were also covered in glitter. Don't worry, no one had died from a glitter overdose yet.

Once the food was set out and the (non-tainted) punch was ready, it seemed like things were as good to go as they'd ever be. If things got too crowded, hopefully a fire marshal wasn't among the folks who had come back to town.

During the night, Fandom had been covered in a blanket of fresh snow that was just thick enough to turn everything crisp and white. With cream-colored decorations and twinkling lights, the Student Council had aimed for a winter wonderland kind of theme, and the snow simply added to the effect. Thankfully, the day was turning out to be warmer, so those who were going to be outside all day wouldn't freeze. Once the finishing touches were done, the carnival was open for business.

Ellie was a little surprised when she arrived at the hotel to find holiday music still playing. She wasn't complaining too much, though. At least not right away.

Today's Special
Eggnog and Gingerbread cookies


[No ocd today.]

Peyton needed a coffee fix, so she made her way to J GoB and settled in with a cup of coffee and a really decadent pastry. She hoped she might see some old friends while she was here.

Town Hall was all decked out in harvest theme with this being so close to Halloween and all. Pumpkins and squash and random corn! The corn, people! Think of the corn! But please, for the love of all that is holy, don't allow your children near it. Especially not the creepy gingers.

There was plenty of food and punch--not yet spiked--set to the side of the spacious room. Which left plenty of space for the general mulling about that kids were so fond of these days. Or dancing. And even the occasional dark bits in which to lurk. Have a fun homecoming, kiiiiids and remember to vote!

Last day of work, last night she'd be in Fandom...

She was feeling pretty quiet and introspective and wondering if she'd get a chance to catch up to and say goodbye to everyone she wanted to. Well, maybe some of them would stop by while she worked.

Anyway... Groovy Tunes was open.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Today and next Thursday. Her last two work days before she was gone. She was really going to miss this place.

Still, she was looking forward to a little time home before she headed off to... wherever she ended up.

Her music definitely reflected her mood.

Groovy Tunes was open.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was making lists at Groovy Tunes. And calling colleges and record studios. She had to find something pretty soon since her time here was almost up.

Groovy Tunes was open and Peyton would be very glad to be distracted from this headache.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton had pulled a bunch of her artwork down off the wall and out of her sketchbooks and made her way down to the beach. She waded out into the water a little ways and took the first piece out of the folder tucked under her left arm and set a corner of it on fire.

She watched as it burned down nearly to her fingers then dropped it in the water and pulled out another one. Sometimes there was a flare of color as chemicals from the colors she'd used reacted to the flame.

She was hoping the exercise would prove cathartic, a way to let go of some of the past. Time would tell, she guessed.

She figured when she was done she'd just sit on the sand and watch the waves until she thought she was tired enough to go home and sleep. She might well be here all night.




[ooc: Open to anyone who might want to stumble across her. And, of course, it's a beach, so...]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was thoughtful today after her conversation with Jennifer last night, mellow music on and sketchbook never far from her hands. She kind of hoped either she was run off of her feet or that a friend or two came by to distract her a little.

Groovy Tunes was open.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton had spent yesterday and last night holed up in her room in the dorms so she didn't have to deal with anyone. She'd pulled herself together today enough to come into work only to crumple into tears again at the newly delivered box of Friends with Benefit CDs that had been delivered for the store's inventory.

She opened one of the CDs and put it on repeat, then made herself go about her daily tasks at the store. No matter how much of a mess she was, she had work to do.

Groovy Tunes was open and the CDs were available for anyone who wanted one.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
It was Thursday so Peyton was working at Groovy Tunes.

And it was Peyton so the music was either loud or depressing. And loud.

And the CDs were late arriving and she was feeling particularly alone (and more than a little uneasy about her interlude with Ipod and the others) and, well...

Before she knew it she was singing.

Luckily, her voice wasn't nearly as bad as she thought it was... )

Welcome to Groovy Tunes.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Any day now! Any day now her CD would be in and she'd have an excuse to go see Ellie and she'd, well... she'd have officially produced her first CD!

In the meantime, she'd just straighten everything she could find at Groovy Tunes to keep herself occupied. And play loud music, though that was pretty much a given anyway.



[ooc:No OCD]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Pensive!Peyton was pensive today, what with Brooke leaving and wondering what she was actually going to do when she herself left. And with the CD finished and nothing to do but wait...

Well... sketching was in order. And loud music.

Groovy Tunes is open!
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was a little distracted at work today. She was waiting to hear back on the last two songs for the CD - some legal issues that Ellie was sure they could take care of. And once those were clear the CD could go into production.

Groovy Tunes was being cleaned to within an inch of its life as Peyton waited.
[identity profile] canadianpopstar.livejournal.com
Robin was not wearing her Robin Sparkles regalia longer than she needed to. Which was for the obligatory performance.

So, for right now, the wig and graffiti denim jacket were tucked away, and Robin herself, brunette and irritable-looking as ever, was behind the bar and eyeing a bottle of Johnnie Walker.

[hooooly crap, wait for this OCD. it's intense. OKAY IT'S ALL UP. For the sake of not collapsing the post from sheer OCD, there's no audience reactions threads -- just react right off the performances, please! Have fun! \m/]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
At any given time Peyton might be found on her cell phone talking to Ellie or managers from various bands, writing out new ideas on her list, or trying to come up with a name and cover art for her CD.

Which was looking more and more as if it was going to become a reality every day.

Groovy Tunes was open, but Peyton might be a little distracted.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton wasn't feeling particularly groovy today. In a way she was glad to have finally talked things out with Dean, but she couldn't say it made her feel any better.

Groovy Tunes was open.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Lots of sexy music being played at the shop and Peyton was down to as little clothing as she could get away with wearing. She just didn't like the feel of it on her.

And she really really wished she had someone to relieve all this tension with. Midnight was going to be a long time coming.



Groovy Tunes was open and Peyton was... well... sexually frustrated. And more than a little annoyed about the events of the morning.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
After a very bizarre class, Peyton had hurried across town to open Groovy Tunes. Well, more limped quickly than hurried really.

Which meant that she'd decided against stopping somewhere for food and by the time she'd reached the store was very grateful to be able to sit and put her foot up. And she decided that ordering in Chinese sounded like the perfect thing to do. Of course she ordered far too much as always, so anyone stopping in might just be offered some.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Come on in. Store's open and both Peyton and the music are mellow.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
After class Peyton picked up something for lunch and hurried over to work. It was kind of handy getting all of your big responsibilities out of the way in one day.

She settled in with some chinese food and The Cure cranked up loud on the store speakers.

Groovy Tunes is open!
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
It was kind of weird being here as a graduate. Probably meant she had to make some decision about where she was going to go next. So, between customers, Peyton culd be found looking up record companies and seeing if any of them were looking for interns.
[identity profile] stupid-toasters.livejournal.com
It was the day before graduation. The day before pomp and circumstance, diplomas, smiling seniors and proud guests. What better way to spend that day then partying the night away? That's right, tonight was the night of the senior lock in! Many NPC workers had been busy in town, cleaning up and setting up an abandoned warehouse for the event.

Now, the front of the warehouse was lit up with neon signs and stanchions that would lead the seniors into a huge building where not one speck of floor space wasn't being used for something fun. There was loud music pumping through the building and strobe lights were swirling around the area, lighting up the room in blues, reds, greens, yellows and various other colors. Decorations of all kinds painted the walls, giving the room a party like atmosphere.

Of course, it would just be a regular ole party, right? Nothing surprising would happen, right? Oh, of course. No surprises. Riiiiiight.

The senior lock in was open and it was time for the seniors to get their party on!

[Posted early for super duper SP! This is for seniors only. OCD is good to go! Have fun! Comments are off so, if you need me, ping the OOC thread or email me!

ETA: And there's something going down here! Have fun there and please please continue to play in the party beforehand. It's your party, seniors, please enjoy it!

ETA 2: And the thread to get free is here!. Hack it up! It's moddable!]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton wasn't sure if her dad was getting in today or tomorrow. It all depended on whether he got back early from his latest dredging operation or not. She supposed it didn't really matter that much since she had to work today, but still, it had been ages since she'd seen him!

So she was here, much more upbeat music playing, keeping herself busy and finding herself more excited nd nervous about graduation than she imagined she'd be.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was making lists of all the bands she thought might possibly agree to be a part of the benefit album she wanted to make - assuming she ever got brave enough to go see Ellie.

Groovy Tunes is open!
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was in, feeling incredibly tired. It wouldn't be at all surprising if someone walking in found her asleep at the counter.

Still Groovy Tunes was open with a compilation of Peyton's Best Emo Music playing.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was in a very thoughtful mood today. Of course, she had a lot to think about.

Like what she was going to do after graduation.

And what she was going to do about Ellie.

And whether Dean was going to ask her to Prom. Or if she should ask him.

Or if she really wanted to go to Prom given her lack of luck with such things.

And how Meg's mom was doing.

And... yeah... lots and lots of stuff.

Groovy Tunes was open and Peyton would probably appreciate the distraction!
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was distracted today, worrying about Meg. She knew it had to have been something bad for the Secret Service guys to come sweep her away and she just hoped everything would be okay.

All of which meant rather dark and emo music.


[OCD free.]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Theme of the day? Loud. Very loud.

Peyton could be found sketching at the counter. She'd finally made up her mind and felt relieved and nervous all at the same time.

Still, it was good to be at work and doing something.


[no ocd]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
It had been an incredible week and Peyton hated to see it end. It was much colder back in Fandom and the sky looked like it was going to snow and she'd be back sleeping on her own. And she knew which of those things bothered her most.

In any case, they were back and there was something she just had to do.

"Dean? Do you mind? I just need to make a quick stop before I go back to the dorms."

Even with the sun out, it was still fairly chilly on the causeway, creating a brisk reminder of what everyone would be leaving behind for the next week as they traveled through the Caribbean.

As the students, teachers, and guests gathered to wait for the portal to Florida, everyone was given a copy of their lodging information and a trip itinerary to peruse:

Eastern Caribbean Cruise Itinerary (7 Days)
Sunday: Portal to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida (Ship departs 5:00PM)
Monday: Princess Cays, Bahamas (Docked 9AM - 5PM)
Tuesday: At Sea
Wednesday: St. Maarten, Netherlands Antilles (Docked 9AM - 5PM)
Thursday: St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands (Docked 9AM - 5PM)
Friday: Grand Turk (Docked 9AM - 5PM)
Saturday: At Sea
Sunday: Portal back from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida (Portal opens 7AM)


[OOC: Up early for SP! The cruise posts are up now as well: rooms are here and the ship is here. Please check to make sure that you have a room assignment, and let us know if you were accidentally left off. Also, make sure you have [livejournal.com profile] fh_trips friended so you'll see the rest of the posts this week!]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was tired and grouchy today. After the fire alarm she'd tried to do a little, um... relaxing to help herself get back to sleep with totally frustrating results, Maybe when she got off she'd try to find Dean and see if he could, um, give her a hand, as it were.


[ooc: Peyton's too tired for OCD.]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton busied herself making sure the store was neat and everything was in its proper place. That kept her from thinking too much about Valentine's Day and the dance and what, if anything, she was going to do about them.

Groovy Tunes was open.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton opened up the store, not happy at all with the weird hat that had suddenly appeared on her head. It didn't seem to matter how often she took it off, sooner or later, she'd turn around and there it would be onher head again.

And oddly, the store system seemed to insist on playing Aretha Franklin no matter what other CD's she put in.

Groovy Tunes is Open!
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was here and in a much better mood than she'd been yesterday after class. Which meant the music wasn't nearly as emo as it could have been.

Groovy Tunes is open!



[ooc: And OCD-less]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton did not see the point in being at the store. There was no heat and no power and playing music kind of required power of some kind. She had her ipod and was listening to her own music by candlelight while sketching, but there was no guarantee that she was actually going to stay her whole shift here.


[OCD Free: Someone come save Peyton from the cold!]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was settled in with her sketchpad, wearing an old Ravens sweatshirt and a pair of sweatpants as they were the only clothes she had left. All the rest, including underwear, were gone. She wasn't particularly happy about that, but still she made it to work.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was here and feeling in a particularly good mood. Which definitely meant much less emo punk rock today and more classic hard rock.


[OCD free today!]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was pondering over how to respond to her dad. He wasn't sure he'd be able to make it home in time for Christmas and wanted to know if she'd mind doing it later or if it was really important that they do it 'on the day'.

The music reflected her mood - thoughtful and a bit moody.

Groovy Tunes was open.

[OCD Free today.]
[identity profile] baskiceball.livejournal.com
There was a special on warm drinks today. Just because Marshall felt like having cocoa all evening. Mmm marshmallows.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton had the music cranked as she sketched away behind the counter. She was perfectly willing to be interrupted by anyone who might come in, though.
[identity profile] suit-of-sables.livejournal.com
It was previews tonight, so while there was a bit of nervousness, there wasn't the electricity of opening night. There was just the theatre with the chairs set up and the set made to resemble the very town they were in and oh my god they were up to previews.

Geoffrey was like a live wire, a wolf on the hunt, the scent of opening night in his noise and out in his hair and down his spine and he loved it, absolutely loved it.

"We're getting started, folks..."

[ocd coming up!]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton was tucked behind the counter working on her sketches and listening to Fall Out Boy's latest CD. God, that Pete was hot.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Peyton wasn't in that bad of a mood today. In fact with the right kind of music blaring, she actually approached fairly cheerful. The interesting topic of her sketches might have had something to do with that as well.


[Groovy Tunes is Open!]
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
Today's music was soft and dreamy in the hopes of keeping little George calm and dozing. Peyton hadn't gotten a whole lot of sleep, so it's entirely possible that she might be dozing off behind the counter if things were slow.

Feel free to wake her, but be warned that if you wake the sleeping wokling as well she might not be so happy with you.
[identity profile] darkangelsawyer.livejournal.com
If it was Thursday, Peyton must be at Groovy Tunes. Today she was working her way through her heavy metal collection.
[identity profile] rocksthescarf.livejournal.com
It happened again.

"Rico, what the hell is up with this bar and the hot female bartenders never showing up?" Chuck asked. He was holding his and Blair's fake spawn with one hand by it's foot and was waving it around with every sentence he said. "You know what? Don't answer. Just move the hell aside."

Tino obliged easily but started making plans to kill Chuck in his head. The guy totally deserved it.
