*smiles warmly at Nekone*

OOC: :) :fluffle: to you to. now, when are you going to stop brooding in the library?

ooc: Best case scenario....it would be a while. Preferably, I want to use my puppet again.

OOC: :eek: Tinks... welcome back!... sorry the place is a mess... :(

You get caught up with the current RP?

Take a drink, this might take a while.

Take a drink, this might take a while.
ok.......

ooc: Bye Random Theives.

@ Tinks... oh nuthin much... just the storm to end all storms, coupled with earthquakes.
Apparently there are these tokens, Earth, Fire, Water and Thunder. if the tokens are disturbed, they release a titan of the same element. so somone took the Earth, water, and thunder tokens... and the last one is Fire...which is hidden in the base of the statue Ju made of you.

the chalace you're statue is holding is a replica of the token.

the story is being told by Gael and Vaga... and Celeste can fill in the holes.

the statue is of me?! cool!

*Three elemental tokens were stolen and unleashed the power of the Titans they were associated with (that's why we have rain, snow, lightning/thunder, earthquakes...) The only one left untouched is the fire token. Hence the nice new statue of you on the bar (token inside). Vaga seems to know than he's letting on, Ju disappeared in a cloud of dust while he was standing next to the statue. We don't think he's dead, just doing something on his own.

And there's this strange being... tied to Gael that appeared yesterday and things got hectic. That's it, in a nutshell. There was also some discussion about transforming PC because it was too chatty, but you know who to talk to about that... the last half of PC 55 should fill in the blanks, or ask and it might jog my memory*

I've already pmed Vaga to discuss a few things, i think this place has gotten a little too chatty again

OOC: chat is nice... but it can get carried away... :rolleyes:

you and me both...

Mefff :)
[sorry, hungry...]

This whole place confuses me.... :confused:

OOC: This RP is good it'll change the set up of this place, which is a good idea.

Like this, for instance... I guess I shouldn't have just walked in here not knowing what this place is...

[Well... Ask... what so confusing about this place?]

*looks at Nekone and grins*
I think that's a good idea. I can't remember the last time I ate something...
*she goes to the kitchen and comes back 20 minutes later with a nice omelette*

@ Hype
ooc spy on the place for a while... it's a nice place to RP

Like this, for instance... I guess I shouldn't have just walked in here not knowing what this place is...
I think everyone walked in here at some point not knowing what this place is, except obviously me

Is this all RP? What is being too chatty? Is this related to some other RP thread? Etc. Etc...

ooc this is where your character develops and blossoms... imho. plus, you get to meet great people

Like this, for instance... I guess I shouldn't have just walked in here not knowing what this place is...OOC: (my view of this place) this is a constant RP... unlike the other thread which is one constant storyline, this place as many various stories. ranging from the romatic love interest (too often of late) to the end-of-the-world scenarios. (this one) it's a fun little diversion from all the politic/religion/moral arguments going on in the other threads. baisically... you come here, have a drink, chat with others about things not discussed in the other threads... then go back out into the debates.

Does that help?

(OOC: I'm back! Sorry, there was a problem with the kitchen lights that needed some attention.)

Darn, I was just about to say shoes. Oh hey, it's that glowing panther again.

*waves*

Guess it doesn't help that I don't have a character... Character from what? NationStates? I still don't get it... sorry.... :confused:

My name's Celeste

@ Lucious
Alice again, hey?

Guess it doesn't help that I don't have a character... Character from what? NationStates? I still don't get it... sorry.... :confused:OOC: Ever heard of D & D... it's similar. assume a personality, some have "powers" others are normal. and hop right in.

For instance, I decieded to RP a Cat... Panther to be exact. however, I am not a normal Panther. while some took it as a hobby to torment me, others tried to find out my past and there are a couple who know.

the only thing I ask is to be consistant. the best thing is to read the past Paradise clubs or sit back and enjoy the show.

Thanks for your help everyone! Must go now, but I have a slight clue anyhoo! :) :fluffle:

Alice again, hey?

Yeah, when Alice comes up, it's always time to take a pill. Apparently she's the source of all the problems.

OKeyDokey! I'll stick w/Hype then! :D Nice to meet you... :)
OOC: It's easier to stick to a name similar to your nation.

IC Merrr :)
[Nekone... nice to make your aquaintance.]

ooc Bye Hype.

So...what exactly is this statue all about? Where did it come from?

*admires statue*

*walks in dripping wet. Looks down irritated at his now damaged suit*

*walks over to bar and fixes himself a rum and coke*

*slinks to a quiet corner to finish eating.*

So...what exactly is this statue all about? Where did it come from?

*admires statue*

*unsure of how much to say*
It was a gift from JuNii to Tink

*eats her omelette*

I think there's a little bit more to it than that...come on, you can tell me. I swear I won't tell anyone else.

*looks at lucious* You sure are a nosy one, aren't you?

I think there's a little bit more to it than that...come on, you can tell me. I swear I won't tell anyone else.

There's still time for you to get out of here... No? Very well. The statue was made by JuNii, but it's hiding an elemental token, the only one that hasn't been stolen. The bad weather spell we've been having is caused by the Titans. They were unleashed when the tokens were stolen.
*takes a breath and drinks*

That can't be good for the floor.

*looks sharply at celeste* You gotta be kidding!?! And why would you tell us that? What have you been drinking since I left?

How this one was moved without... disturbing it is beyond me. Ask Vaga if you're that into it. Bottom line: the thief or thieves will, at one point, come here to get it. And we have to do everything to protect it. There are some other things going on as well, but I can't be the one to share secrets that are not my own.
*she drinks again*

Nothing strong enough to dull the pain, the confusion or the fear...

Well...I know I've been here for, like, a day, and I know I may come across as a little bit clueless and weird, but...well, I'm not going anywhere...so, if you need someone to look after this thing...I'm here to help, Celeste.

Sorry about that. You're kind offer has overwhelmed me.

*smiles fondly at him*
Maybe I should ask for some of his pills...

So, who exactly are we looking out for. Do you know?

I dont see this as useful knowledge. Seems a little dangerous to me to tell everyone what we have here. Maybe I'm just overly cautious. *sits on a stool and sips his rum and coke*

We don't know.
OOC unless you are you a puppet being controlled by this RP's GM...? I think we're ok

We don't know.
OOC are you a puppet being controlled by this RP's GM?

Hmmm...well I'm sure we'll find out soon enough, and we'll be read for them.

*shrugs* So what happens if this one is stolen?

OOC: I'm flattered you think me so stealthy.

*shrugs* So what happens if this one is stolen?

OOC: I'm flattered you think me so stealthy.

something fairly bleak and permanent.

OOC and you are sneaky

*ponders that a moment*
Something bleak and permanent, huh? *sips his drink*

OOC: *Whistles a merry little toon* You have no idea.

Is that permanent bad? I imagine so.

*A hardened old man...with weathered, leather skin and a long tired face, struggles to open door. He enters the club looking for safety and shelter, a place to stay until the weather blows over. He is wearing a brown paper boy hat, lumber jack shirt and black pants held up by some greens suspenders. His movement is slow and is aided, by a finely crafted varnished willow cane*

Hello.......is there anyone here?

*ponders that a moment*
Something bleak and permanent, huh? *sips his drink*
*the tune "It's the end of the world" starts playing in your head...* ;)

*jumps, then glares at the cat* You want to knock that off?

@ B&B
Come in

*watches him, shrugs and sips her coffee*

ooc: now I'm all... curious

Hmm...time for a drink, I think. Do you mind, Celeste?

*fixes self some kind of green concoction, involving lime, kiwi and cherry liqueur*

*looks at the old man, doesn't see anything special* What is it SO?

Well, it's always the person you least expect...or that's how it is in all the novels.

*glances over at Celeste, notes bruises on throat and weariness in her face* How long have you been up, kid?

ooc: now I'm all... curious

OOC: Is that what you call it?

Well, it's always the person you least expect...or that's how it is in all the novels.

I wasn't aware this was a novel *said dryly*

I wasn't aware this was a novel *said dryly*

Yes, yes, yes, I know this isn't a picture book, but still...usually holds fast in real life too, doesn't it?

*hearing a soft voice he follows it to the best of his ability, his eyes are still sharp, but his ears have been failing him. After slowly walking up the stairs he sees two men, a young women and a panther.*

*his face lightens*

Hello, I hope you guys don't mind if I rest here a while. The weather,....seen nothing like it before.

*glances over at Celeste, notes bruises on throat and weariness in her face* How long have you been up, kid?



OOC: Is that what you call it?

*she rubs her throat and puts her head into her hands*
Too long...

*turns to the old man* Not that it's my place, but you're welcome here. You just weren't the one my soft-witted friend was expecting.

*Rubs Celeste's shoulder* Why don't you take a nap. We might need you later. Wouldn't want you all warn out. *smiles*

*turns to the old man* Not that it's my place, but you're welcome here. You just weren't the one my soft-witted friend was expecting.

Oh, Ok..thank you.....I won't be here for long.

*sits down on the nearest chair...he has been walking for what seemed like ages, his legs needed a rest*

*turns to the old man* Not that it's my place, but you're welcome here. You just weren't the one my soft-witted friend was expecting.

You'd be surprised. I may not show it often, but I know what's what. It's all working away up here.

*taps head*

*Rubs Celeste's shoulder* Why don't you take a nap. We might need you later. Wouldn't want you all warn out. *smiles*

*smiles at him warmly, touched by his concern*
Maybe you're right. *she gets up and goes to the chair by the fireplace, nestles in deeply and promptly falls into a restless sleep*

OOC I'm around but i'll be packing...

*the large panther in the corner gets up and moves out of the room*
Mwrrrrr
[gonna patrol the area. BrB]

*watches the panther slink off, absently*

*turns to the old man*

So where you from?

It feels like my home is far from here. I went for walk outside my farm, and then this storm came out of nowhere, and I have been walking ever since.

Thank you for asking......

*rubs his hands together, to generate some warmth*

Why don't you have a drink - it'll warm you up quicker than all the hand-rubbing in the world.

Thank You, a brandy would be nice.

*Returning from her Fathers home, after spending some five days away from the PC,Orchid enters the bar and looks around to see who is here tonight....seeing many strangers, she walks to the bar, and makes herself a rum and coke.*

Hello all....

*Smiles, and takes a bar stool.*

*gets brandy from behind bar*

*gives brandy to old man*

So...it's really that bad out there, huh?

*Smiles, and takes a bar stool.*

Haven't seen you before, although you should probably be saying that to me first. The name's Lucius.

*nods at orchid, grimaces when he realizes his drink is warm and sets it down*

*gets brandy from behind bar*

*gives brandy to old man*

So...it's really that bad out there, huh?

It's wicked out there, but it's not all bad, I can do with a little vacation.

*accepts the brandy*

Thank You, that was really kind.

Hello Lucius....pleased to meet you, I'm called Orchid.

I have been away for a few days, so if you are new here, you will not have met me before....

*Returning from her Fathers home, after spending some five days away from the PC,Orchid enters the bar and looks around to see who is here tonight....seeing many strangers, she walks to the bar, and makes herself a rum and coke.*

Hello all....

*Smiles, and takes a bar stool.*

*she wakes to Orchid's sweet voice. Knowing she will not be heard, she gets up, goes to Orchid and gives her a hug*
*strained whisper* Nice to see you again.

It's wicked out there, but it's not all bad, I can do with a little vacation.

*accepts the brandy*

Thank You, that was really kind.

No problem. A vacation, eh? I tell you what, I own a car dealership, and I happen to have a state-of-the-art camper van in at the moment. A real beauty. Interested?

*chokes on a laugh at Lucius* Are you sure your lot is even still there?

Celeste.....how are you?

Something wrong with your voice?

*Smiles broadly at a recognised face*

*chokes on a laugh at Lucius* Are you sure your lot is even still there?

I left Sindy in charge. She's a good girl - she'll be big in the world of motors, mark my words. A stint at the helm is just what she needed.

Celeste.....how are you?

Something wrong with your voice?

*Smiles broadly at a recognised face*

*she undoes her scarf to reveal large dark bruises shaped like a hand, but too big to be a human hand*
*tries to speak alittle louder* All hell's breaking loose, dear. Maybe you should've stayed at your father's.

*chuckles*

No, no, no.....I don't need any of that new stuff. I have nice little red truck that serves me well, I appreciate the offer.

*Takes a sip of his brandy, it reinvogaretes his body. It puts some warmth and feeling back into his nearly frost bitten toes and fingers.*

Oh dear lord...what happened.....what is happening?

Oh dear lord...what happened.....what is happening?

OOC best read - there is an end of the world RP developing here. Last half of PC 55 and this one.There was also some discussion about transforming PC because it was too chatty, but you know who to talk to about that... the last half of PC 55 should fill in the blanks, or ask and it might jog my memory

Three elemental tokens were stolen and unleashed the power of the Titans they were associated with (that's why we have rain, snow, lightning/thunder, earthquakes...) The only one left untouched is the fire token. Hence the nice new statue of TINK on the bar (token inside). Vaga seems to know than he's letting on, Ju disappeared in a cloud of dust while he was standing next to the statue. We don't think he's dead, just doing something on his own.

And there's this strange being... tied to Gael that appeared yesterday and things got hectic. That's it, in a nutshell.

Actually,they're a little better.

Christ, this is weirder than I thought...not that I'm going anywhere.

ooc: I smell puppets.... can you smell them as well B&B?;)

IC:
*Jon staggered into the bar and promptly fell onto the floor, completely tired out*

Well, that's alright. Whatever makes you happy.

*notices the marks on Celeste*

Holy crap, what the hell did that?

*she touches her bruises lightly. they were still very tender*
Nekone was here yesterday and then started to sense something... or someone. There was some sort of confrontation that I can't describe because it wasn't physical. Then something started to strangle me, either to provoque or control Nekone, I'm not sure.

Must've been after I left...

*hearing a noise behind her, Orchid turns around to se Jon laying on the floor.

She runs to him....*

Jon, Jon what has happened to you?

Oh why did I have to go away just then?

*She lifts his head into her lap!*

OOC

Thanks for the info Celeste.

Yes, he is...do you know what happened to him?

ooc: Question is B&B, do I give you away....?

IC:
*Jon lifted his head weakly*
Tree..... fell.... onto fire.... set camp..... alight..... got away.....

Is there anything I can do to help? I'm trained in basic first aid.

Oh Jon....your beautiful camp....burned?

*Hugs him to her.*

Are you hurt at all?

ooc: Question is B&B, do I give you away....?

IC:
*Jon lifted his head weakly*
Tree..... fell.... onto fire.... set camp..... alight..... got away.....

ooc: Meh, I haven't tried hard to hide my identity, its not crucial.

Guess my skills aren't necessary after all.

OOC: Whoa. Major reading back. I should do that more often.

IC:
Blasted storm
*mutters as she walks down the stairs*

Hi all

*Jon grunted and rolled over, letting Orchid see his back*

*shakes her head*
No, but maybe I can help?
*she puts cool hands on his temples,and wills some of her energy to pass through her now-glowing hands to him, in an effort to replenish his and heal him.*
ooc: Would you mind deleting that post? Or at least editing it? I sorta dislike it when people just get healed instantly, makes it boring. No offence.

*Jon grunted and rolled over, letting Orchid see his back*
Oh Jon...your back!......

*She rips off the charred remains of his shirt...revealing a large area of skin that has been quite badly burned.*

Quick...someone fetch some cold water and clean cloths....

I'm on it!

*grabs cloths from behind bar*

*pours cold water into bucket*

ooc: Would you mind deleting that post? Or at least editing it? I sorta dislike it when people just get healed instantly, makes it boring. No offence.

OOC It says in "an effort" and I have complaining that my abilities are lacking. I thought I'd give you the choice... I can delete it if you want.

I'm on it!

*grabs cloths from behind bar*
Thanks....you say you have a little first aid knowledge....will you see to that gash on his forehead?

*Starts to squeeze cold water over the burns*

What happened to.... Jon - was it?

*sees burns and clasps a hand to her mouth*

Thanks....you say you have a little first aid knowledge....will you see to that gash on his forehead?

We need to stop the bleeding. Is there any styptic in this place? I need a needle too.

OOC It says in "an effort" and I have complaining that my abilities are lacking. I thought I'd give you the choice... I can delete it if you want.
OOC
We could just say that you eased his pain a little!
Maybe!

What happened to.... Jon - was it?

*sees burns and clasps a hand to her mouth*
Oh hello Clara....he had a fire at his camp...

*Jon looked around him wearily, there was a person there trying to heal him, to no avail. He grimaced and tightened as he felt the cold water splash onto his burns*

He needs a blanket, so that he doesn't lose heat.

Oh hello Clara....he had a fire at his camp...
And....... how?
*eyes widen*
Fire? Oh no...

We need to stop the bleeding. Is there any styptic in this place? I need a needle too.
*at the mention of a needle, and the thought of it being used on him, Jon shook his head frantically, the meaning was clear*

He needs a blanket, so that he doesn't lose heat.
Not being very up on first aid...but I would say that the skin on his back is still cooking.....no blankets.....

Christ, I'll get 'em myself!

*rushes to First Aid box*

*gets styptic, disinfectant, needle and thread*

The styptic will stop the bleeding, and the disinfectant will make sure there's no infection. Now I just need to sew it up. Hold your breath Jon, this is gonna sting a bit.

*starts to close wound*

*she lets her hands drop to her side, eyes stricken. she gets up and goes to the bar, drinks a shot and stares into nothingness, too dazed to move*

*at the mention of a needle, and the thought of it being used on him, Jon shook his head frantically, the meaning was clear*
*She holds his head firmly but gently....*

Yes my love, you need that gash stitching......

*she lets her hands drop to her side, eyes stricken. she gets up and goes to the bar, drinks a shot and stares into nothingness, too dazed to move*
*jumps up and goes to Celeste* Hey, hey. Hang in there. We're going to make it. *puts arm around her* This is going to all go away. I promise.

*finishes stitching*

Okay...that should do it.

*tears the needle out, grimacing in pain as he did so. He threw it out the door*



ooc: I have a mortal fear of needles, and my character is the same!

*paces around nervously*
No. Don't say I did this....

*jumps up and goes to Celeste* Hey, hey. Hang in there. We're going to make it. *puts arm around her* This is going to all go away. I promise.

*she looks at him, her mind barely registering his arm around her, his comforting tone. she's numb... and empty*

He needs to be sedated, or else you'll never be able to stitch those gashes.

*finishes stitching*

Okay...that should do it.
Thanks.....Do you know the best thing for this burn now?

I am cooling it down, but don't know what else to do ....

*She carries on squeezing cold water on his back*.

*tears the needle out, grimacing in pain as he did so. He threw it out the door*



ooc: I have a mortal fear of needles, and my character is the same!

Okay, okay, we're done...it's all over.

Thanks.....Do you know the best thing for this burn now?

I am cooling it down, but don't know what else to do ....

*She carries on squeezing cold water on his back*.

Burns need ointment and a bandage.

(OOC: I'm done for the day: see you tomorrow - I trust you can take it from here.)

*mutters casually*
Just cool it for now

*looks around nervously to see if anyone had heard*

*Jon collapsed, from fear, pain and tiredness*

Burns need ointment and a bandage.
Well....maybe a non greasy ointment....grease will just fry it!

I hope that fire doesn't spread....there's a lot of trees out there!

Did you say something Clara?

*Jon collapsed, from fear, pain and tiredness*
Jon....Jon....

Oh my god....now what do we do with him?

I know...

Put ice in a sheet.....put him to bed....with ice on his back......

Did you say something Clara?
Just...*swallows*... cool it for now. The bandages come later.

I....
*shakes her head*

Put ice in a sheet.....put him to bed....with ice on his back......
NO!

*in a calmer voice*
Err..... No ice directly on the skin. It has already weakened. If you freeze his skin he won't be any better off. Either wrap the ice in a towel or put him under a cold shower

*Notices that Clara's hand is a little unsteady, and that there are small beads of sweat on her forehead...*

*she hears their voices, something about burns?*
*whispers* Clara is right. Cool the skin first, then bandage.
*she turns and buries her head into Frederick's chest and cries silently*

NO!

*in a calmer voice*
Err..... No ice directly on the skin. It has already weakened. If you freeze his skin he won't be any better off. Either wrap the ice in a towel or put him under a cold shower
I did say ice wrapped in a sheet.....
could you get me plenty of ice please?
and if someone will help me, we'll lay him on his front in his bed......

I did say ice wrapped in a sheet.....

and if someone will help me, we'll lay him on his front in his bed......

*hiding her face, she manages a some sound*
Not ice! Even wrapped. It will damage the skin. *no sound comes*

I did say ice wrapped in a sheet.....
could you get me plenty of ice please?
and if someone will help me, we'll lay him on his front in his bed......
Oh..... I... missed that, sorry.

*hurries off to the kitchen to get ice from the freezer, glad she can do something useful*

*starts loading up ice cubes into a bucket*

*returns with the bucket nearly filled*

Where do you want it?

Thank you Clara....

Who will help me get him to his room?

We need to take it to his room, and put it in a couple of towels!

Thank you Clara....

Who will help me get him to his room?
Upstairs?

*looks at the stairs and frowns*

*Comes down the stairs after hearing all the fuss and sees Jon*

Whoa what happened to him?

ooc: i read back so you needn't explain much

*Comes down the stairs after hearing all the fuss and sees Jon*

Whoa what happened to him?

ooc: i read back so you needn't explain much
*shifts nervously*

Burned... He needs to get into a bed

*Comes down the stairs after hearing all the fuss and sees Jon*

Whoa what happened to him?

ooc: i read back so you needn't explain much
Oh Kel...I'm glad to see you....will you help get Jon upstairs?

Oh Kel...I'm glad to see you....will you help get Jon upstairs?

Sure

Hey Clara...sorry about earlier... :(

*Lifts Jon gently up into his arms lying him on his front so he doesn't touch his back and slowly takes him upstairs, struggling slightly under the weight*

*picks up the bucket*

It doesn't matter Kel. You didn't know.

*follows the lot up quietly*

Sure

Hey Clara...sorry about earlier... :(

*Lifts Jon gently up into his arms lying him on his front so he doesn't touch his back and slowly takes him upstairs, struggling slightly under the weight*
*Follows along behind.....*

Will you bring the ice please Clara?

*Reaches Jons door and kicks the handle so the door swings open*

Right, I suppose you either want him on the bed or in the bath?

Bath.....yes....bath might be a good idea!

not too deep though, we don't want to drown him!

*rushes into the bathroom ahead of Kel, puts the bucket down and starts filling the bath with cold water*

*rushes into the bathroom ahead of Kel, puts the bucket down and starts filling the bath with cold water*

*Slowl lowers Jon down into the cold water, resting his head on the edge so it doesn't fall under*

There...

See that he doesn't get too cold.

*paces back into the bedroom to sit on the bed*

Thank you Kel....

*Takes the ice from Clara and tips some of it into the bath.*

How long do you think we should leave him there?

Thank you Kel....

*Takes the ice from Clara and tips some of it into the bath.*

How long do you think we should leave him there?

Not long, just long enough for him to cool down, say about 15 mins. Then take him out but don't dry him off, just lay him on the bed, on his front an allow him to dry off, putting some dry towels with ice on top on him every now and again...but I have to go now...sorry i can't stay...

*Goes out of the bathroom and sees clara sitting on the bed*

Hey...i gotta go...look as long as I didn't upset you earlier I can be happy, i don't want to see you sad...er...

*gives clara a hug and moves to kiss her on the cheek, but stops and shakes his head*

i have to go...take care...

*vanises out of the door and dissappaers up the stairs*

*Walks into the bar*
Hello?

*shrugs and gets himself a drink*

Thanks again Kel...bye...

Clara....in a few minutes, will you help me do as Kel has said?

*pulls back as Kel wants to kiss her cheek*

It's okay. You did nothing.......wrong. Take care.

*nods to Orchid*

*opens door of bar quietly and slips in*

*walks across to the bar looking round the old, familiar room*

*Walks into the bar*
Hello?

*shrugs and gets himself a drink*

*she hears movement. time passes. Frederick leaves. she stares into nothing, feeling nothing... she shakes her head and the confusion as she hears a voice*

Hi* she croaks*

*she hears movement. time passes. Frederick leaves. she stares into nothing, feeling nothing... she shakes her head and the confusion as she hears a voice*

Hi* she croaks*
Hi, haven't seen you around here before, then again I've been MIA for a while.

Doesn't look like much has changed around here, Oh where are my manners? The name is Tullamore, nice to meet you.

*looks at the clock*

This should be about enough...... It's really not helping much that he is passed out

*walks back to Orchid and Jon*

*nodding at the couple Prue doesn't recognise, she walks over to the bar and gets a drink*

Hi, haven't seen you around here before, then again I've been MIA for a while.

Doesn't look like much has changed around here, Oh where are my manners? The name is Tullamore, nice to meet you.

*she tries to hide drak bruises around her neck with a black scarf*
*whispers* Nice to meet you. My name is Celeste.

*nodding at the couple Prue doesn't recognise, she walks over to the bar and gets a drink*

Hello, I haven't seen you before.

ooc:Though I have read some of the earlier pc's.

*looks at the clock*

This should be about enough...... It's really not helping much that he is passed out

*walks back to Orchid and Jon*

I am really greatful to you for helping me you know....

We could use a man here though.....I don't know how to do this without hurting him.....

Maybe if we lift him with one of his arms around each of our shoulders, and pull?

*she tries to hide drak bruises around her neck with a black scarf*
*whispers* Nice to meet you. My name is Celeste.
Well w/ the pleasentries out of the way, Can I get you a drink?
*grabs a bottle of JWB and a tall glass*

Hello, I haven't seen you before.

ooc:Though I have read some of the earlier pc's.

*turns on hearing a voice and smiles at the stranger*

hi there...no, i don't come here often any more. I stopped around Paradise Club 25. Used to be here every night at one time!

my on-line husband turned into a vampire and it was all very painful...i've recovered from that now though so i've popped in again.

It's the least I can do.

*looks back at the bed*

It's only a short distance. We should be able to get him out. You hold his back up while I lift out his feet. Then we'll take him to the bed.

*and it happens as is said with little complications*

Now..... keep his back cool, but let it breathe too

Well w/ the pleasentries out of the way, Can I get you a drink?
*grabs a bottle of JWB and a tall glass*

*she nods*
Whatever you're having...

Seems like there has been alot of trouble around here lately, and for once I wasn't part of it.
*smiles showing gleaming tusks and plenty of fang*

It seems like I miss all the good stuff.

*she nods*
Whatever you're having...
*Pours a glass for her*

*Covers Jon up, as far as his back.
Puts a clean towel over his back, and turns the fan onto it....*

*Turning to Clara,*

Why the least you can do?

Have you got anything to do with all this?

*Pours a glass for her*

*drinks the glass in one gulp*

*Covers Jon up, as far as his back.

I.... might

*drinks the glass in one gulp*
Heck have to bottle.

*finishes off his glass hands the bottle over and grabs a pint of Smithwicks*

*fills glass with white wine and slinks over to the sofa where she curls up in her favorite corner*

*fishes out her book from behind the cushion*

those were the days. Where's Gael, Vaga, Vex, Six, Jhen, Tink, DF and all the others?

*sips her wine and a tear runs down her cheek*

*watches several people carry Jon upstairs*

Well, my work here is done for today. Time to hit the sack.

*curls up in corner and goes to sleep*

*begins to fidget and look around alot, sniffs the air several times*

Heck have to bottle.

*finishes off his glass hands the bottle over and grabs a pint of Smithwicks*

*she takes several gulps from the bottle, then slowly wipes her mouth*

*looks out the door and closes it*

Sits on the chair by the bed...Come and tell me all you know.....Please?

Sits on the chair by the bed...Come and tell me all you know.....Please?
I have been know to....... cause fire

*shifts eyes nervously*


*after a little while*

That is why I ran away

*starts sobbing quietly in the corner*

*begins to fidget and look around alot, sniffs the air several times*

Nervous?
*she looks at you but doesn't seem to notice you*

I have been know to....... cause fire

*shifts eyes nervously*


*after a little while*

You....you started the fire.....how could you....why did you?

Poor Jon, laying there with a burned back....and it's your fault.

*she takes several gulps from the bottle, then slowly wipes her mouth*
*Nods, smiles again and begins to pace behind the bar*

I hate waiting for the fun to start.

You....you started the fire.....how could you....why did you?

Poor Jon, laying there with a burned back....and it's your fault.
I don't know if it's my fault.....

I might have.

*Nods, smiles again and begins to pace behind the bar*

I hate waiting for the fun to start.

*a cold smile crosses her face*
Yes... fun

Nervous?
*she looks at you but doesn't seem to notice you*
no, I have yet to be domesticated.

I don't know if it's my fault.....

I might have.
Please....tell me!

no, I have yet to be domesticated.

*slight smile*


OOC Ok I have to pack my things and move. Back in 90 mins

Please....tell me!
I don't know Orchid.....I can't really control it..... unless I really REALLY want to.

But it lashes out sometimes. Increases flames. And at rare times create them.

*tears came and she hides her face*
I have seen so many people burned..... because of me.

no, I have yet to be domesticated.
oh and I have a small army hunting me. I hate geneticly engineered killing machines, they take most of the fun out of it all.

*slight smile*


OOC Ok I have to pack my things and move. Back in 90 mins

ooc: Have a good one, I'll be around again sometime WED.

I don't know Orchid.....I can't really control it..... unless I really REALLY want to.

But it lashes out sometimes. Increases flames. And at rare times create them.

*tears came and she hides her face*
I have seen so many people burned..... because of me.
And there is nothing you can do to control it?
Have you tried?
*Puts her arm round Claras shoulder....*

And there is nothing you can do to control it?

*shakes her head*
I'm afraid of it

*gets up and pinches self*

*walks outside and down the road thinking of times that were...wondering where Jhen is now...and all the others*

OOC: what a relief to know i wasn't invisible! g2g now - will be in later in the week. See ya guys

*shakes her head*
I'm afraid of it
Well so would I be....but I would be more afraid of the damage that I could cause if I never even tried!

*Goes over to check on Jon.....turns off the fan, and lifts off the towel.*

*nekone walked in and looked to see who's around.*
*Sniff* merr?
[what's cooking???]

I seem to be doomed to be nursing men.....Jon....LP....Jon again....

I don't even like nursing.....

*Looks at the nasty raw-looking wound on his back...*

Poor love....

That's gonna be really sore when he wakes up....

*Strokes his hair.*

*follows the burned meat scent upstairs... looks into one of the rooms. sees Orchid and Sanct on the bed.*

Mer?

Mrrrr.... :(
[burned bad... I can stop the pain... but he needs to heal.]

*Strokes Nekones ears......*

OOC
He didn't want to be healed by mystic means......

IC
Maybe taking some of the pain would be good....

He will be in agony when he wakes.....

I hope your right about the fire......

*nekone stares at Jon.. glowing a blue-green... he starts blocking the pain receptors in Jon's mind.*
Mew :(
[can't find them all... but I hope it helps.]

*the reality of her situation finally sinks in. The Goddess is gone. She can still feel Phil, but that's just because his her twin. Everyone is gone. There are no more voices in her head, praying, demanding, cajoling, crying... all this emptiness within her*
